4 SERIOUS QUESTION.
WHO MURDERED BLAINE?


Washington, February 1, 1896. 1T
is RENE mb bercd by the general public
that in 1878 the late James G. Blaine,
the idol Of the young Republicans of
the United States for the Office of
President. gave to the country most
pronounced views on the subject of
return of the government to the free
coinage of silver, which had been
knocked out by the act of 18th Of Feb
ruary, 1873. Mr.. Blain, not only de-
manded a restoration of the Dollar OF
the Fathers, but he went farther, and
clared that gold and silver coin was
the money Of the Constitution, y
indeed the money Of the American
people anterior to the Constitution,
which the great organic law recog-
izrd as quite independent of its own
existence" 1t is evident that Mr..
}iaine regarded the demone tization
<i.ver IS unconstitutional.
VII! also &c remem bercd, that Mr..
B., nc was candidate for the nom-
ination for President at the National
Republican convention held at Min
neapolis in 1892. It has recently de-

A HYMNS FOR CHRISTIANS.

Written for the Representative.
Blessed Jesus, Lord and Savior.
What wouldst Thou have me be?
l would love man, would serve Thee;
Only give Thy love to me.
Hear my plea now. Christ. my master;
If my soul would love and live,
BY Thy Spirits life within me
to others life must give.
Blessed Savior. Elder Brother,
I would labor all I can
In the interest of another.
Carrying love to brother man;
For all men are still my brothers
Hcwe'er much despoiled by sin,
And I'd spend my life for others,
Proving thus Thy life within.
If live not thus by lovin
Other souls who need Thy love,
l ain not toward heaven moving
I'm not born, then, from above.
And the greatest sin for me is
That | love not those in need
Those for whom Thy life was given
This for me is base indeed.
For this life that Thou hast given
Is not mine, but Thine, give,
Opening up the way to heaven
To all mentor this I live.

CRUEL ENGLAND.

OTHER NATIONS-THE GOLD STAN

WEAPON.
While we keep the portrait of an En-
glishman-Franc.s Bacon-upon our first
page, and regard him as the greatest
human being that has ever lived on the
EARTH we trust we will not, in attack
ing the greed and cruelty of the English
aristocracy, be understood as assailing
Erglishmen as such. We are rapidly de-
veloping in America race of plutocrats
az cold-blooded, grasping and Indifferent
to human rights as anything ever pro-
duced in the tight little isle" With this
explanation we quote the following
cd Rep)
Did England carry higher life into
India? Her engines Of war committed
countless murders for the sole purpose Of
extending the empire and adding tax
able territory to the realm. Untold num-
bers Of people were literally starved to
death in wringing stupendous sums from
that unfortunate country. To enforce the
vile excise laws necessary to carry out
this plundering, the people were forbid
den to get salt from the evaporation OF
the sea water, although famish.ng for
that necessity of animal existence; and
this and other barbarities were enforced
by penalties including the use Of the dun
gecn England found in India people
peaceful and moral beyond her concep-
ton She brought them war, famine and
h.deous immortality, as all the world
knows
China? We rail against the opium
smoking fiends" from China. Our COM
plaint should be made against the opium
importing fiends Of England. The Chi
nese government, far more moral than
that of England, made determined efforts
to stop the importation Of opium into
China by the English! so determined, In
fact, that England made 1t the pretext
for declaring war. and her navy literally
forced unwilling China to submit to the
poisoning of her citizens. There are few
more cruel pages Of human history than
that which records the cowardly journey
of the English gur-bOats up the river
from coast to capital. The moral charac-
ter Of the Chinese towers above that OF
their conquerors. When the first de-
fenseless city was bombarded until hope
was gone women and children committed
suicide that they might not fall into the
hands OF "the white barbarians."
Did England carry a higher life into
Egypt when she impoverished that coun-
try with the bond trick and carried can
non under her Shylock's cloak? Did she
carry a higher life to the African gold
coast. where she introduced drunkenness
and other immoralities? Has she done
better by the people we are pleased to call
Christian nations? Let Ireland answer.

growing weak from hunger while he sells

to send to the English land stealer can

A PEOPLES PARTY LEAGUE.
IT OBJECTS TO ONE PLANK OF tn
PLATFORM

IT OBJECTS TO ONE PLANK OF THE
PLATFORM.
At a meeting of the Peoples Party lea
que Of Cannon Falls yesterday the pro-
ceedings of the State League were read.
There was kick made against the
fourth resolution, viz, a graduated tax
on incomes; SO much Of kick that we
will have the subject for debate at our
next meeting. The leaders Of a party
should be very careful not to put in their
Individual opinion as binding upon the
rank and file Of their professed followers.
1t is not that there Is difference Of opin-
ion but that sisners Of the league are sup
posed to uphold policies that are contrary
to their honest convictions. The will Of
the majority is not always right and MI
norities should have the right of express
sion and their fair share of representa-
ton. This is what is called proportional
representation. A hint to the wise is
sufficient. u. Tanner.

If the view of the "Times" is cor
rect, and the balance, shown above, Of
1890, was used to secure the election
OF Hon. Knute Nelson to the United
States Senate, then he sits there to-
day by virtue Of the bounties and
largesses of the corporations. and is
not free man to represent and pro-
tect the people of Minnesota.
II this be not true then the charge
Of Editor Mitchell, of the Alexandria
Post, The home organ Of Senator Nelson, be
it observed, must lie true, that the
State Central Committee of the G.. O.
P. has pocketed $l7, 800 which belongs
to the party. We can scarcely think
that Tams Bixby would be guilty of
such conduct. Altogether it is mud
die which we cannot see the bottom
of at present. +
We charged, the other day, that
?25O,O00 had been disbursed in that
1894 camplign, in Minnesota, on be-
half of the Republican party. Here
we have $4,000 Of it. Besides this
there were the large sums spent by
William D. Washbu.n, to secure his
reelection to the Senate; also the
money paid out by the Congressional
candidates; also that spent by the
legislative candidates and by those
running for the county Offices. The
expenditures in Minneapolis and St.
Paul were enormous:-every other
man had his hand out; candidates
were hiding theselves from. their
'friends'
Certainly this thing cannot go on
many years longer without involving
the complete moral ruin OF the peo-
pie. 1t started thirty years ago.
thirty years more will breed a purify
ing revolution or the utter destruc-
zion Of our liberties.
These are not things to be howled
over from political standpoint; they
are matters which every honest man,
who loves his country, should serious
!y consider and try to correct. And is
it possible to correct them inside the
two old parties, any more than it
would be possible to wash ones sell
clean in a cess pool?

stood, that Mr.. Blaine's pronounced
views on silver coinage restoration
not only led to his defeat In the con-
yention, but had much to do with the
election OF Mr.. Cleveland in the fall of
that year. 1t is bruited that Mr..
Cleveland stood pledged to Wall Street
to stand by the gold standard il placed
in the executive chair,-and that
while Mr.. Harrison was the personal
choice of the gold bugs, he. refused to
give any pledges to the gold standard
