THE ATTACK ON THE REPRESENTA-
TIVE.
This paper, it is we'll known, was es-
tablished 1893 by the Farmers Alli-
ance of Minnesota, and during its first
year it was published in the city of St.
Paul. 1t did not receive the patron
age which we thought it was entitled
to, and we were obliged to put our
hand In our pocket, until we had paid
out 81 300 Of our own money to keep it
alive. About the end of the year our
lifelong friend, Hon. Joel B. Bassett,
of Minneapolis. came to us and pro-
posed that we remove The REPRE-
SENTATIVE to that city.
Every one knows that there is now,
and always has been, great emulation
and rivalry between 1.-THE Twin
Cities" and each has been willing to
pay literally to induce the business
enterprises Of one place to remove to
the other. We supposed that Mr..
Bassetts offer was slim ulated by a
similar sentiments; and we said to him
that we would move the paper to Min
neapolis II we were assured OF 5000 a
month of advertising for the paper.
At Mr.. Bassett's request we drew up a
paper-"We the undersigned agree
that IL THE REPRESENTATIVE is re-
moved from St. Paul to Minneapolis
we will advertise In it for one year for
the amount set opposite our names"
Mr.. Bassett took this paper and pro-
cured number Of signers to it, and,
as he was lum herman and miller, he
went among his friends in the lumber
and milling business and induced sew
eral of them 10 agree to advertise
with us. After he had exhausted his
own influence he called In prominent
citizens of Minneapolis to help him,
and among these was Mr.. Samuel Hill,
one Of the leading and most energetic
business men OF the city. Mr.. Hill
was an old friend of ours. as was his
father before him; for DR.. Hill had
been one of our chiefest advocates in
the old days when we were fighting
Bill King and the Washburn family.
| Mr.. Samuel Hill drew up another pa
rcr and procured several additional
! signatures, and thus the amount Of
800 Of advertising per month was
pledged to the paper. Mr.. Bassett
and Mr.. Hill told us that ii we
moved to Minneapolis and the par
ties signing failed to comply with

savage and unprovoked attack upon

savage and unprOvOked attack upon
us?
He is a little piece of the rotten
drift wood of the world, who has been
pitched out Of the windows Of every
newspaper Office in Minneapolis, until
he has at last found shelter in the CO.
operative company of the Penny
Press. He is of a gangrened, bitter,
atrabilious, jealous, ugly nature:-a
veritable 1shmaelite, whose hand is
against every mana viperish, pois-
onous, heel.stinging creature,-with-
out character, honesty or even COM
mon sense.
1t is true we gave him temporary
employment. not knowing much
about him, for month or Two. while
absent from the state, In 1894; but our
back was scarcely turned ere he
brought perfect storm of denuncia-
tion and abuse upon the paper. from
some Of which it has not yet recov-
cred. He took the unparalleled posi-
tion that Peoples Party politics did
not extend to the affairs Of the city OF
Minneapolis, and he proceeded to adj
vocate the election of Republican office
seekers in the columns of our Peoples Par
ty paper! He did worse:-he took let
ter by DR.. Christia johnson, of Will
mar, to THE Representatives, in
which the Doctor discussed some ques-
tions of general politics, and cut it in
half and interpolated in 1t a plea for
the election of Hon. r. c. Dunn, the
Republican candidate for state audi
tor. as against Mr.. A. L. Stromberg,
the Peoples Party candidate for that
position. This was treacherous be-
trayal ,of the party, an outrage on
Mr.. Stronberg and fraud on Doctor
johnson. 1t was for these reasons
and because some OF the Populists Of
Minneapolis said to us that Williams
was paid for these extraordinary acts
that we made up our mind to get clear
of him. We never wrote him,-"Go
light on J. J. Hill; he is one OF our
best friends" and we call upon him
to produce such letter, If he has it.
We did say to him to discuss prin-
ciples rather than personalities. We
have constantly opposed the policies
and interests represented by Mr.. Hill,
but we do not think it will serve the
interests of great party to attack
his private character or call him a
ief,-especially II the charge is
false. But this poor little Quilp
seems to think that you cannot OPP
pose mans views without splitting
in bis face and lying about him.
And the miserable abortion init
mates that we were Of no consequence
after we had ceased to be a member
Of the Pine Land COMMITTEES! We
would gently intimate to his insol-
vency that Ignatius Donnelly, without
an Office, and without newspaper, is
and will continue to be, rs long as he
retains his mental faculties. Of more
Importance in the community than
forty thousand Bub Williamses.

THE PENNY PRESS.

We shall watch with considerable
solicitude the course of the Penny
Press at this juncture. We have had
hints that they were about to take up
the unfinished work of John l.. Mac
donald in the campaign Of two years
ago, and dig grave and bury. THE
REPRESENTATIVE and ourself in it..
We hope there is no foundation for
these reports.
We have welcomed the Penny Press
cordially into the Free-Silver move
ment; we have allowed them to use
our mailing list to send copies of their
paper to our subscribers; we have
spoken kindly of them editorially.
Only last week we published a letter
from one of our correspondents in
which he urged every body to take
their paper:-a very unusual thing
for any journal to do. We shall hest
tate to believe that this attack, made
on us by the telegraphic editor OF the
Tenny Press, is the beginning of open
war upon US by that paper. We hope
1T is simply an outburst Of gall aud
folly by an interchangeable eructa tion
OF foul gases from the disturbed
stomach Of manikin, inflamed .per-
haps by bad whiskey. II it is this and
nothing more the only things to suffer
will be the atmosphere and the olfac-
tory nerves Of the public. II it is
more than that,-if the Penny Press
has come into our party to attack our
organization through its officials. and
its leading newspaper through it's edi-
tor, we shall view the results with
profound sorrow. Ever since the de-
mise of the ungodly Fish we have la
bored to harmonic and unity the par
ty. and we have SO far succeeded that
the Populists OF Minnesota are to-day
one in heart and sentiment, and an
example to all Peoples Party men
throughout the Union. It will he
Iamentable indeed II, just when we
are about to enter upon great cam
paign, which involves tie happinss of
all generations OF men, the spirits Of
Fish and Macdonald, "come hot from
HE'LL" reappear in our midst and s'cry
Havoc and let slip the dogs of war;"
We hope for the best; we fear the
worst. IGNATrUs DoNNELLY,
P. S.-We have since writing the
above article had conversations with
Mr.. Stacy and with that excellent
gentleman, Mr.. Peter Sutherland,
both connected with the Penny Press;
and they assure us that they have no
sympathy whatever with Williams
and have had nothing to do with the
attack made upon US; and that the
Penny Press Company will soon take
definite action upon the subject.

The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1896-11-10
Concerning Fuel Gas.

The paper RECENTLY read by Nelson
Operators association and published in
the November minutes of that organi-
zation reinforces with singular en-
phasis the theory of Mr.. ]. Gardner
before the Scranton board of trade,
that the waste energy of the culm
heaps can most advantageOusly be re-
claimed and utilized in the form of gas.
belief that Scranton could supply elec-
trical power cheaper than Niagara but
he affirmed that gaseous fuel could be
transmitted short distances far more
cheaply. and would also represent O
lower initial cost. For instance, the
unlaid pipe necessary to deliver 1.60C
horsepower of gaseous fuel three miles
would cost $4,000 whereas to transmit
this same amount of energy electrical
ly the same distance. with the same eff.
ficiency, would require $4,000 pounds
of copper wire, costing $4,000 or four
times the cost of the gas mains.
But an even greater advantage in
favor Of fuel gas is that its first cost is
less. Upon this point Mr.. Perry says:
'In our most favorably situated elec-
trio light and power stations the maxi
mum demands on the station are sell
dom less than 2la times the mean de-
mand. This means that to supply their
customers. there must be supplied 21s
times as much machinery as would give
the same aggregate output If worked
continuously at their rated capacity.
1t means larger fixed charges as well
as greatly increased operating expense
per unit output. It also means that
