THE WHEAT QUESTION.

Grand Forks, Sept 4.-Much dis
Subtraction is being felt among the
farmers at the action of combina-
ton Of elevator companies at termin-
al points to grade wheat down. AL
ready they have graded down to an
astonishing degree. Wheat that
graded last year humble l hard, is at
the present time being graded No. 2
Northern. The elevator managers
claim their action Is due to the fact
that there is smut and white kernels
in the wheat. BE this as it may
millers are coming into competition
with the grading by the elevators, aud
are getting the largest share, and are
grading it at it's actual worth. There
is practically very little smut in the
at,certainly no more than in
former seasons, and while the millers
can handle but small portion of this
seasons crop the question arises,
What are the farmers to do? From
the present outlook IL would appear
as if the elevator companies would
soon have the cinch on them.
We don't want to advise our friends
when to sell o. not to SELL 1t is too
serious responsibility; and the
Rings have got the people by the
throat; and the ordinary laws of trade
count for nothing. But would it not
be we'll to sell just as little wheat as
you can? Ii not d bushel of wheat
was sold in Minnesota for the next
three months wheat would be worth
a dollar bushel, and every Ring
would be smashed. They count upon
your necessity to rob you. They have
got, as the above writer says, "a
cinch" on you. II you had a party in
power devoted to your interests the
chains of slavery which now bind you
would be broken. But the old parties
do not represent the producers-they
represent the plunderers. Have you
got the manhood to take possession of
the state? II you have, organize a
Peoples Party club, at once, in your
neighborhood, and get all your ac-
Quaintances to join it. But if you
have not the courage to protect your
selves then let the spiders catch you
in their web and devour you. You
are only fit to be eaten. The sooner
the earth is rid of you the better for
it. Something better may take your
place.

VERY TRUE.

If the Populists Of this country
would quit throwing their money away
on opposition papers, and give their
patronage to the papers which are
fighting their battles, we would soon
be able to establish daily papers in
every state in the Union, and the Peo-
pies Party would sweep the country
in 1896.
t is discouraging fact that the
farmers seem to think they can build
up the Peoples Party by patronizing
Democratic newspapers.-Tom Wat
son.
Every word of this is true. Fancy
the Union soldiers paying the salaries
OF the Confederate officers. Pretty
kind Of war that would be carried on
under such circumstances.

! WORSE AND WORSE.
CSURY IN IOWA.

Carroll. Iowa. Sept. 14.-Ex-Judge
George Paine has raised a peculiar
point in law in the distrct court here
and the decision has created a sensa-
tion. The question raised was one Of
usuIy. Paine advanced the plea that
a national bank is not liable to the
penalties Of the laws of the State of
Iowa, therefore a district court of the
state had no Jurisdiction. Judge Ell
wood sustained the objection.
Every day sees some new aggression
upon the rights of the people. Now
If man desires to avoid the usury
laws of state all he has to do is to
turn his "shaving shop" into a ma
tional bank, and he becomes at once
independent of the laws of the state,
and can lend money at 100 per cent
per annum. The old doctrine of state
rights is diminishing to nothing.

PREPOSTEROUS.

In view of the spectacle now pre-
sented in Judge Sanborn' court in St.
Paul, doesn't the following the blue
Earth City Post" appear a little full.
some, not to say hysterical:
"Cush"' Davis, president OF the
United States, would take away from
Republicans, to great extent, the
sting OF bitterness at Blaine's defeat.
Some day, as sure as the world, whe n
his merits will have become fully
known, he will be loved by the Ameri-
can people as Garfield and Blaine we're
loved.
Quite a number of our esteemed
rural Republican contemporaries are
INDUCING in similar extravayant lau-
dations of Senator Davis, which will
look very foolish later on. The idea
that nothing but Cush Davis nominal
tion will ever assuage the Republican
grief over the failure of Blaine to
get there" is 'too funny for any
thing" The Senator himself, unless
he is most self-infatuated individ-
ual, must feel that his country organs
are spreading it rather thick."-
Minneapolis Times.
We can only echo Guiteau's cry on
the scatfold ,-"Oh! Lordy! Lordy!"
Why there isn't an honest hair on
Cush Davis's head-and he has not
got very many hairs there anyhow.
And, as a preparation for the presi-
dency, there he is trying to cons olidate
two rival railroads.
Well, if the country can stand that
kind of thing we can.
Cush Davis for president! He has
about as much chance of becoming
president as we have of going to
heaven in hand-basket. with John
Norrish, Bill LIE Duck and Chris TOPPER

RIGHT YOU IRE.

The National Waterman advocates
the holding OF the next Peoples Party
convention as early as February. The
example was set and the Fourth of
July, 1892 furnished the first candi-
date for the party, and plenty of time
was had for a glorious and profitable
campaign. The same thing will be
true OF the campaign of 1896. The
Fourth Of July. 1896, in some Western
city, will be the proper caLer" There
will be nothing gained by an early con-
acknowledgements Advance.
The Fourth of July is early enough.
We have not got the money to make
long campaign. The minority had
better wait to see what the majority
will do, and aohat aciU result from their
action There is no use of tearing our
shirts before the ball begins. Sup
pose the two old parties split all to
fragments over the money question.
Would it not be we'll to have the Pop-
ulist life boats near at hand to pick
up the chaps that were thrown over
board? We might get enough refu-
gees to capture the two old hulks and
sink them.
Don't be too brasl, brethren. We
might meet on the first of January
and load ourselves down with a lot of
rotten "fads," and disappear forever
iD the waves be fore the fight had fair
ly begun. We have got cunning ene-
mics and fool friends, and one is about
as dangerous as the other.

OF COURSE.

Judge Sanborn decided, just as we
expected, that there was nothing TO
prevent the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific from being CONSOLE
dated into one road; and therefore
there is nothing to prevent all the
railroads in the United States from
being similarly united. But this has
ceased to be practical question for
they are so united already. All OF
which shows that the Omaha platform
is right, when it says the time has
come when the government must own
the railroads or the railroads will own
the government.

bonds are issued to maintain the gold
standard:-in other words to maintain
the hard times and the poverty Of the
people;-to maintain low prices for
agricultural productions; to maintain
the reign Of robbery, murder and sui
eide.
Senator PETER declares the country
should repudiate these Cleveland Car
Isle bonds, because when the admin.
istration called upon Congress to
authorize them and Congress refused
to do so, Cleveland and Carlisle went
on and issued them anyhow.
This may become great question In

LACKED A SENSE OF HUMOR,

The German 'Narr Bible" takes it's
name from an inten tional error. The
printers wife had quarrel with her
husband, and to get revenge, stole
into his Office one night and made a
change in the sixteenth verse of the
third chapter of Genesis. She altered
the word Herr, Lord, to Narr, fool
The result Of the jest was that her
husband was hanged and she was i'm
prisoned for life.
1t was cruel to suppress wit in that
way. And why was the man hanged?
