What Prominent Republican Of Minneapolis

What q Prominent Republican Of Minneapolis
Says
AS indicative of the discomfort which
is rife in the Republican party. the fol-
lowing letter to a resident Of Los Ange-
les. written by a prominent citizen and
old-time Republican of Minneapolis. will
be interesting:
MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, July 2. 1896.
A. W. Faithful. Esq.-Dear Sir and
Brother: AS to the question you ask,
can tell you that although 1 have al
ways been Republican. the gold plank
loses my vote, and hosts more of Mime
sofa Republicans say the same. When
Minnesota's delegates went down there
and declared Minnesota solid for gold
they wholly misrepresented this state.
as they will find out In November.
If nominations are made from now on
that will unite the silver vote, such as
the nomination of Teller for president
and John Lind for governor of this state,
and Owens or any good silver man for
congress. they will find out that Mime
sofa will go solid for silver
They have gone back on their princi-
pies. as Teller said, and they are be-
ginning to realize it. I think the gold
standard benefits no one but the banks
and millionaire money loaners. and 1t
benefits them enormously at the ex-
pense of all other kinds of business.
England is accomplishing the complete
subjugation of this country by this
financial system she has forced upon
this country through the bankers and
Wall street, and 1t is about time the
people awoke to the situation and real
ized that unless a new Declaration of
Independence is made and the people of
the United States run this country
themselves. they will soon find them
selves as dependent on England as
though they were one of her provinces.
We have legislated the value out Of
the silver dollar by striking out the de-
mand for it, and as soon as the vicious
legislation is removed and the silver Is
given fair show it will rise to par again
as it was before the decentralization.
This is evident from the rise that Is
occurring now. The price has risen
from so to 50 cents just at the suggestion
Of a possibility of its being remonetized.
and before the law would be actually
repealed it would reach par again,
have no doubt.
You asked my opinion and I have
given 1t, and am emphatically opposed
to the gold standard being fastened upon
this nation to rob the many for the bene-
fit of the very few. Yours in V. NJ. c.

ON THE WARPATH
Charges Of Irreguisrlty Preferred by Cor.
respondent

rebpOHueH-
ITO the Editor of The Herald:)
On Saturday morning, June 1S. 1895,
Robert A. Taylor of Vernon had COM
plant issued from the district attor-
ney's office, drawn by Deputy c. c. Nc
Comas, charging one Ray Darr OF Ver-
non with the crime OF assault and bat
terry. Mr.. Taylor took the complaint
and went to Justice Mo1rison's court
and asked that warrant be issued for
the arrest of said Darr. The warrant
either lay in the police court or nm the
hands of officer Robbins for four days
before it was served, for Darr was not
arrested until the following Wednesday
morning at 10 o'clock, the 22d ult. Mr.
Taylor can prove this a any time. The
police deny this, but the record shows
when the complaint was sworn to and
when the defendant was arrested.
Again, the case was set for trial last
Thursday morning, but when it was
called no witnesses had been sub
poenaed. Mr.. Taylor, the day before.
Wednesday morning, gave the police
list of the witnesses and the places
where they lived, and Officer Long was
detailed to go and serve them.
On Thursday morning Mr.. Taylor ask
ed Mr.. Long what was the reason the
witnesses We're not served, and Mr.. Long
said he could not find them. Mr.. Taylor
said that was very strange, for surely
some one would know where the Wit
nesses live, for they had lived there for
the last nine years. Mr.. Long said he
did not go to serve them at all; and yet
Mr.. Long has the cheek to swear and
file an affidavit in Justice Morrson's
court that after due diligence in trying
to find the witnesses they could not be
found Officer Long says the streets
were not on the city map. Is not Cen
trail avenue on the city map? Mr. Tay-
lor gave directions in each case of name
and street and how many blocks the Off
Ger would have to go to serve the wit

ROBBED OF HIS ALL
A Smooth Siren Who Was Held Prisoner by
Her Victim

John Huffermann, an intelligent young
German, has a tale of woe to impart, and
instead of being holy terror, threaten
ing the lives of innocent women, as has
heretofore appeared. claims to have been
a victim of the wiles of a siren, whereby
he is $50 poorer in pocket but richer in
experience.
Last Friday night about IL o'clock Huf-
fermann met frail female who gave
her name as Bessie Price, in the Califor-
MIA saloon on Main street. between
Fourth and Fifth. He cottoned to her
and she to him, so they staiC in one of
the private boxes drinking until o'clock
next morning. Then Hufferman took
her to his room in a lodging house at the
corner of Fifth and Maple avenue. Bes-
sic told him she was a minister's daugh-
ter, so of course Hufferman thought
she was without guile.
They retired but nextmorning about
8 o'clock Huffermann missed his roll of
bills and accused the girl Of stealing his
wad. There were five $40 bills and two
$50 greenbacks in the pile, and it was
all gone. He accused her Of taking it.,
which she denied. Then, walking over to
his trunk. Huffermann took out re-
volver and told her she should never
leave the room alive unless she pro-
duced his stuff
This bluff frightened her, but still she
denied having robbed him. Keeping
the door locked, Huffermann held her a
prisoner until late in the afternoon.
when she managed to write note on a
card telling of her fate and threw it
from a window. 1t was picked up by
passer-by and the assistance of police
man called. The room was entered and
the girl released, despite Huffermann's S
protest that she had his money. He
came to police headquarters and will
swear out complaint against her. hop
ing thereby to recover his lost green
backs. He has been a nurse in hos
pital and is left penniless by the robbery,
Out will probably know better next
time
