effort has been to measure class
against class, to foment in this coun-
try that hatred between rich and poor
which has torn to fragments every
society that ever felt its volcanic force.
1t is the seeds Of revolution that have
been scattered all over this country

we all know that. for better or for

eminent for the last century, through
many mistakes and many failures,
ever toward a higher degree Of human
liberty and human progress, Is to be
brought rudely to an end The recon-
struction of human nature and human
society by legislative act that chimera
which has clouded so many brilliant
intellects and brought proud nations
to their fall, Is the fatal experiment
that is to be tried upon this republic.
This is the great, the over-mastering
issue. This is why we say that the
work to be done on Tuesday next is
not that of an ordinary day of cleo
ton, but is a decision of the great
question whether we are to have a
revolution. For that reason patriotic
men have forgotten their old party re-
lations, have laid aside the traditions
and expedients which once kept them
silent, have thrown off the apathy
that commercialism and security Gre
ate. and are battling desperately in
thls campaign, which they rightly ap-
prehend to be one for the maintenance
OF the American government, as it
was constituted by those mighty men
whose names are carved upon it's pill
lars and foundation stones. To the
rear, in these last days, march parties,
the personality of candidates, the
Jangling of issues economic and finan-
cial, the petty ups and downs of the
fortunes of one clique or another, and
to the front there strides this potent
and masterful question, to be an

and terror the path marked out by
those peoples which have sought to re-
form abuses by the gospel of hate and
violence, only to lose what liberty they
possessed, and to pass through the
gates of absolutism to their final fail

there is an unusal demand for gold

gold more costly and discouraging it's

commerce are always met according to
the market conditions. For many
months past the rate of discount has
been per cent, indicating a plethora

movement of gold, together with the
legitimate demand for large amounts

gold supply that the directors of the
bank raised the rate Of discount to 4
per cent to check the movement.

PALMER AND aUckNER.

The letter which we publish this
morning from the Hon o. NJ Hall, Of
Red Wing, breathes the spirit Of Ma
tfonal Democracy and makes glad the
hearts of those who have stood. ever
since the disastrous day of the Chicago
convention for. the honor Of the Demo
cratic name. Few Democrats are better
known in minnesota than Mr.. Hall.
and noneJiareNmore highly esteemed.
Deploring as he does the action of the
gentlemen WHO, holding themselves
aloof from the National Democratic
movement, have sought to pervert It
from It's purpose and have. unwittingly
we are willing; to believe. done great
service to the enemy, he sounds tho
clear note Of fidelity to the sacred cause
that we have chosen for our own. We
have no part or parcel in McKinleyism
ir the great struggle which will not end
with Tuesday. but must be carried
through the reorganization of parties
and the reformation of issues. 1t is
ours to do the right thing, whatever
may befall; and every National Demo-
crat will feel that he owes debt of
gratitude to Mr.. Hall for his strong,
brave words, in the hour when all Of
us stand facing our enemies on either
hand, ready to do our duty as we see
it, and leaving to one greater and wiser
than us all the care of consequences.
In this spirit and with this thought
of service to their country do the
National Democrats approach the
crisis of the struggle in which they
have engaged. With them. they are
assured, is the heart, the intelligence.
the conscience Of the country. One
needed but to look over the great aud
fence assembled last night to listen

brooded over all. to feel that the Ma.
tional Democracy has a great duty
The support of Palmer and Buckner
is as much a part of it as is opposition
to the heresies and fallacies that have
had so conspicuous a place in this
campaign. This party and these cam
didates represent principles of govern
ment that cannot be cast aside without
loss of liberty. To fight for them is to
fight for the future Of the re-
public. In these last earnest
days the a1 faithful of Democracy
gather themselves together ready
to battle o with the present evil
and to spend themselves for the future
good Of the, nation. Let no National
Democrat be discouraged or dismayed.

but they are also inadequately In
formed In those humber branches that
lie at and form the foundation not
only of education in general, but of the
qualifications for the transactions Of
business life. We have instanced
heretofore the richly yariegated man

thoughtlessly asked the class what per-
centage the former were Of the whole

surprise no one in the class could tell.
The fault lies largely in the grammar

SOME BUSINESS MEMS VIEWS.

A remarkable letter was given to the
public yesterday signed by repre-
sentative Democrats among the bust
ness men of this city and addressed to
Democratic voters in general. 1t sets
forth the opinion Of the signers that
the business interests of this city and
state require the defeat of the candi-
dates on the Populist ticket. To con-
tribute to this end, they urge that
Democrats everywhere who think as
they do on the money question should
not be satisfied with opposing the Chi
cago candidates and platform, but
should exert themselves as strenuous
ly to secure the defeat Of the fusion
candidates. The signers include no
lawyers or politicians, but are all Dem
prises.
The argument of these gentlemen.
who are well known citizens and are
responsible for the views they set
forth, is that Minnesota is at a stage
in its development where it needs an
abundance of outside capital more
than anything else in the world. It's
people have scarcely comprehended
the vastness of its natural resources.
The development of those resources
cannot take. place without the invest
ment Of large sums Of money. Loans
made in the centers where Idle can
ital accunulates are indispensable to
put larger fraction of the agricuI-
tural area of Minnesota under cuItiva
ton, to build the railroads that she
needs, to encourage immigration, to
improve her highways by land and
, water, to put upon the market the
mighty volume of mineral wealth that
lies waiting almost upon the surface
for enterprise to reach. The trainers

capital. They express their fear that.

qualities of its representatives. it
would have the same effect here, From

Minnesota that the fusion combine

ton.
They win find some who will accent
heartily and others who will
reject indignantly the counsel that
is offered to them. It is car
tainly the most extraordinary climax

themselves constrained to issue a pub
