THE FOREST FIRES.

1t is difficult to realize, in this year
of abundant rains and prolific crops,
that only year ago, in September,
1894, large part of our state was
burned up by long continued drouth
and tremendous heat, and more than
four hundred human beings were de-
stroyed by veritable tornado of
flame, which in many cases slew them
without touching them. 1t was an
event in the history of Minnesota
which we hope may never be repeated;
but it was striking and terrible ex-
perence; and we are glad that it has
found chronicler worthy of its i'm
portance. We have received copy of
book entitled, Minnesota Forest
Fires,' written by Rev. VIM. Wilkin-
son, Rector Of St. Andrews tEpisco-
paD Church, Minneapolis, one of the
most eloquent and liberal-minded
clergymen Of our state. He has done
his work we'll, and has prepared a book
which will carry his name down to
pos terity for ages, along with the
memory of the terrible holocaust Of
1894. The pitiful and terrible story is
we'll told. The book is published by
Norman e. Wilkinson, 1925 Girard ave-
nue. north, Minneapolis, and in typog-
raphy, paper, ETC., cannot be excelIed.
1t contains numerous portraits of
prominent characters and pictures of

1.-THE GREAT DEBATE"

We have received copy of book
with the above title, being the official
report of the discussion on the Silver
Question, between Hon. Roswell G..
Horr and Mr. William H. Harvey. 1t
it work Of 544 pages, prefaced with
portraits Of the two debators. The
faces of the men fairly represent their
characters. Harvey is a slim, clean
cut, honest-looking young gentleman;
Horn is disseminated, surly old bull
dozer, with deception written in every
line of his visage. The. price of the
book is 80 cents. THE REPRESENTA-
TIVE will take orders for it. 1t is a
wonderful compendium of all that can
be said on both sides of the great
questions, at issue. The debate will
be as historical as that which took
place between Lincoln and Douglass.
We have the official report of that
great discussion in our library, and
would not sell it for ten times what it
cost US, because it would be very diff
cult to replace it today. Every intel
ligent Popuist should get copy of
the Horn Harvey debate, and preserve
it as memorial of the times,

SIICkNEYS POTATOES.

There is danger of some of the pOta-
to crop rotting in the ground unless
freight rates are lowered so that it
will pay to ship the tubers More
starch mills are needed to solve the
potatoe problem. Shipped in the form
of starch, which is light article, the
freight does not cut SO much figure
Minneapolis Tribune, Sept. 4.
And the lovely starch mills are an
other swindle. They buy when they
can get the potatoes for the cost of
carting them to the door of the fac
tory, and then, SO the farmers say,
cheat the farmers out of their back
teeth by false weights. They might
be called constitutions to take advan-
tage of the misfortunes of the people"
But are these the same potatoes
Brother Stickney. president of the
Great Western Railway Company, was
urging the farmers to plant, last
spring, to offset the evil effects of the
demonstration of silver?
Lord! Lord! Is it not wonderful
how little sense it takes to govern this
Republic?

GEN.(?) NORRISH INJURED.
ecial Telegram to the Dispatch.

Special Telegram to the Dispatch.
Saltwater, Mimi, Aug. 31.-Gen. J..
f. NOrrish Of Hastings, a member of
the board of prison managers, who
represented Minnesota in the Interna-
tional Prison Congress in France,
writes to Warden Wolfer that he was
seriously injured in London by being
thrown from cart. He is recovering
and will sail for home Sept r.
This will be shocking news to every
honest citizen Of Minnesota. And why
was our minister-plenipotentiary to
France riding in "cart?" A mere
cart! Like load Of turnips! 1t
shouu have been coach and four,
and then this accident would never
have happened. We hope Gov Clough
will call on Lord Salisbury for an ex-
PLANTATION. The entente c0rdi0le between
the Minnesota money-lenders and the
English ones is endangered. Let the
cannon on Capitol square be cleaned
out and loaded to the muzzle, and put
in charge Of that heroic soldier, Gen.
eral LIE Due; and if they prematurely
explode and kill the gunner.a and Great
Britain will only keep Norrish perma-
nently, then, in the language of the
advertisements, "All will be forgiv-
en-"
But when did this accident happen
to the General? Did no thrills run
through the solid earth of this great
state at that dreadful moment? Did
none of our citizens, like Macbeth S
guests, when Duncan was being MUIR
dered, wake up in the night and cry
out, "Murder?' Was there not one
who said God bless us?" Did Warden
Wolfer and Gov. Clough, and Dunn
and Hall and the rest snore and make
no sign? And yet, in that perilous
moment, there was at stake the true
and authentic copy of the Generals(?)
great speech, IN French, at 81 day
and expenses, before the State Prison
congress. The general could have said
to that cart,-in the language ad-
dressed by the illustrious Roman to
his boat: "You carry Caesar and all
his fortunes!" Or he may have varied
it by saying: ooh cart! thou earliest
my whole military recOrd!" And yet
Minnesota Snored on.
AS Lord Byron says:
"And thou vert sad and was not with
thee,
And thou vert i'll and was not near.
Methought twas grief and shame where
thou vert not,
And pain and sorrow here"
But let us brush away these tears!
They are unworthy of our manhood.
Let the whole state move to the At
lantic coast and throw themselves into
the open arms of the returning hero
and savant;-terms four dollars day
and expenses-added to the price of
Irvine!

ABOUT THE WHEAT PRICES.

We have remarked several times
that in the present disturbed condi-
tion of the finances of the world 1t is
impossible to guess at the future
prices of grain. We naturally hate to
sell at such excessively low figures as
now prevail, and yet the future may
be worse. We quote the following
from The National Watchman OF
Washington. d. G.. We do not endorse
it but we want our readers to hear
both sides.
We are not prophet, neither do we
believe 1t requires that gift to see
that prices OF all products must 60 to
a lower range in the near future.
There is not single reason why pres
ent prices should remain where they
are, much less 60 higher, but to the
contrary there are many good reasons
why there should be decided lower
ing OF prices, and that, too, at no dis
tant period. The advance in wages
that is being heralded throughout the
country is bluff and confined mainly
to the iron trade, which receives it's
impetus from large government con-
tracts. There is no reality in such
transactions, as will be plainly dis
closed later on. Higher prices for
wheat are only made possible through
a greater foreign demand orincrease of
currency at home when the supply is
normal. There wsll be no increased
demand for export is we'll known, and
little figuring will show that there
is over 500, OO0,o0O less money in circu-
lation now than there was one year
ago. The bond syscdicate that was
hired to keep our gold at home has
about completed their contract, at
the expiration of which gold will be-
gin to go out, and that will be the ex-
cuse for lowering the price of wheat
and everything else. We will predict
that between now and next February
there will be absolutely no sale for
either wheat or cotton at any price
Good times here with less money and
debts? Don't believe it. Sell your
wheat and get ready for the most
disastrous financial storm that ever
swept over this country.

The Indianapolis journal" makes
the announcement that s'even Igna-
titus Donnelly, OF Minnesota, has dis
covered that the promoters OF the
silver party are either silver mine
owners or other persons Influenced
solely by selfish motives" That is
about as correct as most of the con-
illusions reached by Sage" Donnelly,
who is always plunging to one ex-
treme or the other. The truth is
there are many thousands of PRO
motors" and members of the free sill
yer party who neither own mines nor
are influenced by selfish considera-
tions. The devotion of these men to
silver is infinitely more sincere and
unseltish than was ever Donnelly's
idolatry for the rag baby" or any
