One of the most interesting
articles on exhibit at Atlanta last
fall, was a blotter pad cut from
natural stone. The stone, which
is qnarried at Carthage, Mo-, has
all the absorbent qualities of the
best linen blotting paper and in
stantly performs it's work.
When it becomes gummed by
long usage, it isonly necessary
to rub its surface lightly with
sand paper to restore it toperfect
working order. It combines the
qualities of a blotter and paper
weight, and is far more convent
ent than an ordinary blotter. We
have the agency for Kandiyohi
county, and invite all to come and
see the novelty. The price is
IS cents apiece.

RIDICULE NO ARGUMENT.

No political party ever existed
that in it's beginning was more
numerically ridiculed than the
republican party; and perhaps
no party was ever more wickedly
misrepresented by it's opponents.
But ridicule did not affect it. It
went steadily forward to mar
vellous victory. And one would
suppose that, remembering it's
own experience, it's press would
know better than to think that it
can crush any political movement
by ridicule. Yet that is the chief
weapon which is yielded against
the advocates of free coinage and
the populists. It is both futile
and foolish. Both the silver
sentiment and the populists
movement have grown and are
growing. They are elements in
our politics that no sensible poll
tician will ignore, for one of the
plainest principlesof generalship
is to recognize the strength of the
opposing army. We are con-
stantly told that the "silver craze
is dead. It is not craze and it
is not dead. We are repeatedly
informed that the 'populist fol
ly' is over. The populist creed
is no more folly than any other
political creed and not nearly sc
much as some; and it is not over

men of conviction, as the populis'
movement is backed, is ever ove1

The peoples party to be what we
hope and believe it must be the
nucleus of new great national
party, must absorb or fuse with
the mass of the great democratic
party south and west and, we see
no better plan than to begin this
fusion process right here in
this congressional district. We
know it is kind of hard for old
democrats to drop the time hon.
ored name of their party, but
patriotism should rise above
mere party names and look for
principles instead. We believe
that democratic principles will
never again become dominant

becomes more and more GER
tain that our remedies for the re-
lief of the nation will soon have
to be tried. This prophecy is

fact that business stagnation and
we'll nigh universal bankruptcy
is getting to a stage SO desper-

be done to arrest the malady.
Two years ago it was hoped and

But the real fact is, that the,
national business malady has got
beyond their power and skill.
The business depression now,
though silent com pared with the
rattle of the panic in 1898 is vi
cious and destructive to the last
degree. Business and CONNER
ial housesthe mostsolid andsub-
stanial are making assignments
with unceasing and increasing
rapidity. And the most careful
observers predict that the worst
is yet to come. OF. course it can
not be otherwise with an ever
contracting money supply, and
hundreds of millions of what we
do have, locked up in the treas
ury and the balance boarded for
investment in government bonds.
AS John Logan said in 1874 lit is
a money famine and nothing
else."
But this condition cannot last
forever. In our opinion it can
not last another two years no
matter how The election turns
out this fall.
The panic of 1878, though moth
ing compared to this one, lasted
four years until riots broke out
in Pittsburg and woke up con
gress to action by passing the
Bland Allison bill to relieve the
money famine and start business
again.
So it will be this time. The
money famine must, and will be
relieved by congress, even if il
takes riots to rouse it to action
And the riots will come in due
time if congress persists in its
present do nothing attitude.
And it will carry out the Popu
list plan of course. It may labe
it's medicine by another name
but the remedy will be "morf
money" just the same. We Pop
ulists hardly expect to get any
credit for being right, for having
insisted on the proper Treatment

The Mexicans know that their

East Indians from building fac.

Neither will it prevent the East
Indians from raising wheat and
cotton on a silver basis competing
with US and forcing down the
prices Of those great staples in
the European market.
The fact is that to-day we are
selling two bushels of wheat or
two pounds of cotton for the same
number of dollars formerly re.
ceived for one bushel of wheat or
one pound of cotton, while the
East Indian sells the same guam
tity, gets the same number of
rupees, and justas good rupees
as he ever had.
The effect is practically the
same as if we had doubled the
size of the bushel measure and
the pound weight, selling the in
creased quantity for the same
price, while the East Indian con.
tinued to use measures of the
same size and receive the same
prices.
All! says the gold champion,
but the dollar which the American
farmer now gets will buy twice as
much, so he has lost nothing.
Right here lies the error which
pervades the entire defense oil
the gold standard.
The American dollar will moi
buy twice as much of all things
and the particular things which
the farmer needs may have cheap

FUSION IN POLITICS.

FUSION IN POLITICS.
Wheelock's Weekly, of Fergus
Falls, the ablest Democratic pa
per that we are acquainted with
in this congressional district had
an article lately in which it takes
ground against fusion between
Democrats and Populists in the
coming congressional contest
We have mislaid the copy it was
in but we think we remember
the leading idea-to wit: IF we
don't keep up a separate organi-
zation and our own ticket the
Peoples Party will absorb u.s."
Now we agree with Bro. Whee-
lock that if there is an absolute
necessity for the existence of a
Democratic party in this con.
|gressional district his point is
we'll taken. But we have always
understood that the Peoples
Party represents and expouses
the fundamental and live issues
of true democracy, with posi-
bly, something else added. But
no matter what views many Pop
ulists may hold as to the trans
portation question for instance,
that Democrats do not endorse,
the coming fight will chiefly in.
volve two points money and
tariff. On the first of these the
Peoples Party stands for true
bi-metallism, free coinage of gold
and silver, and government is
sue of our necessary paper cur
rency. We are unalterably op-
posed to national banks. Now
this is nothing more nor less than
simon pure Jeffersonian : and
Jacksonian democracy. This pc.
sition commands the support Of
every intelligent democrat. The
peoples party is simply the real
democratic party on the money
issue. Cleveland's democracy
has left democratic principles on
this issue entirely, and adopted
the Whig-republican nation:l bank
idea. This is so evident that the
mere mention of the fact sufices.
And this also accounts for the
fact that the bulk Of the democra-
tic party in this district are pop
ulists. s..: & ":
In regard to the tariff the posi-
tion of the peoples party is no
less certain. w hatever views

come from the repub lican party
may think we hold as a matter 81
