MORE HUMBUGGERY.

Ex-Governor Foraker. of Ohio. has
just been elected United States Sena-
tor from that state, and made speech
of acc ,ptance to the Legislature. He
declared he was for protection to
American industries and reciprocity.
On the coinage question he said: Il
am in favor of bimetallsm. l think
it was a mis- take to demonetize silver
and l hope some safe way may be
found to restore it to it's proper place
by the side of gold as a money metal"
He also declared that it was almost
criminal negligence for the United
States not to build the Nicaraguan
canal at once.
Now this sounds like an honest ad-
vocacy of the reconciliation of silver:
but there is a string to it. He hopes
some "sote way" may be found: but
the gold bugs say no ''safe way can
be found; therefore it cannot be done:
and so you come out Of the same hole

ST. LOUIS THE PLACE,

St. Louis is,-ail things considered
the best place for the meeting of the
convention. Milwaukee was too far
north, and would have inflicted too
much outlay upon our friends from the
South who are, as rule. very poor.
To have gone to Dallas, Texas, would
have been equally unfair for the dele
gates from the North, who are suffer
ing from the hardtimes nearly as
much as the people of the South 1t
was also necessary to find city that
could furnish tpo large halls for too
great conventions, with hotel accom-
mOdatiOnS for the fifty thousand peo-
pie WHO will undoubtedly swarm
there. -Four years from now we hope
Peoples Party administration will
have made the farmers and working
men so much richer, that the consid-
GRAFTON of cost will not weigh so
heavily, and we may be able to stand
by our good friends Of Texas or Wis

UNION AND VICTORY.

This has been great week for the
Peoples Party.
The Farmers Alliance convention
came first. 1t was a splendid success:
large, enthusiastic, harmoni, Us.
Then followed the convention of Peo-
pies Party Leagues, in Minneapolis,
January Is. This was an immense
gathering, hearty and earnest. Then,
on the 18th, followed the meeting of
the National Committee of the Peo-
pies Party, at st. Louis, Mo-, to fix
the time and place of the National
Convention. This was spirited
gathering. They worked necessarily
for two days and nights, and desig-
mated st. Louis as the place for the
convention, and Wednesday, January
I'D, as the date. They also invited all
friends of free silver in the United
States to meet at the same city, on
the same day. in a separate contention,
to see if the entire Reform forces Of
the nation could not be united upon
the same candidates for president and

And so we felt towards the 4th Of
July. 1t is the glorious anniversary
Of great event-one Of the greatest
in the history of the human family.
But if we could only honor the work
Of past generation by giving up this
generation to destruction. much as we
loved the 4th of July, we thought we
had better let it slide. And slide it
did.
And now Democracy is between the
devil and the deep sea. 1t looks back
longingly to Wall street and the mon

bly, get along without the gold OF the
PlutocratS; and yet there, over yon-

receive our disaffected followers; and

And so, in that Democratic conven-
ton, the East and the West will
stand face to face; the land that lends
money will be arrayed squarely
against the land that borrows money;
the old world with old ideas will en-.

the din Of contending factions, will
be heard the trumpet call Of the
Populists:-".Come, all We that are

AN APOLOGY.

If there are any defects in this issue
remember that the editor last week
attended two conventions, in Mime
apolis; and national committee
meeting in St. Louis; made dozen
speeches; underwent twenty newspa-
per interviews; travelled 1000 miles,
and had to write his editorials on the
cars.
And then we don't want to put in
"our best ticks" anyhow, until we have
got those $4,000 subscribers. We are
like Charles XII.

OUR GROWTH.

Minnesota Populists begin to realize
the advantages that flow from their
labors in 1894. We have So delegates
and So alternates in the next National
Convention. We will be a power in
that great gatherings states sur
pass us. We had quite little strug
gle over the question Of represent ia
ton, in the committee, and we finally
solved it by adopting suggestion of
ours, to give each state credit for the
largest POpulist vote it ever cast
whether it was in 1892, 1894 or 1895.
This satisfied all parties and gave
Minnesota nearly three times as many
delegates as she would have had on
the basis OF the 1892 vote.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch says:
SIN order to make sure Of carrying
out the plan and etfecting the com BIZ
nation 50 clearly defined by the gen.
tleman quoted, the National Commit
tee, after much travail fixed the
basis of represe ntation so low as to
assure a small convention. BY the
basis adopted there will be in the
Forthcoming convention only 1865
delegates. There were over 1000 at
Omaha in 1892, and the convention was
one Of the most unwieldly, even accord
ing to the admissions of the party
leaders, that the country has ever
known. With so small a number of
delegates of course none but the
cream of the Populist Party in every
section Of the country is expected to
get into the forthcoming convention,
and the conservative wisdom of the
new movement will, therefore, direct
affairs"
This is a mistake. We did not have
1000 delegates at Omaha. The alter
mates may have swelled the attend
ance to that amount In July next the
alternates will give us body of 2, $50
We cut down the representation Of
states like New York, where the Popu-
list vote is small but the population
arge, and based the represe ton
largely on the vote cast for the Peo-
ple's Party. This is only fair. The
nominations should be made by those
sections where we expect to get the
votes to elect them; not by st ates
where we have not one vote in a
thousand.
We will meet in the great hall
which holds 1900 persons;-the same
hall in which the Republican party
holds its national convention this
year. If the Free-Silverites agree
with US on the same candidates we
will hold a ratification meeting in
that gigantic building, on the night
of July %, which will exceed, for size
and enthusiasm anything ever seen in
ginning of new era in the history of
the world.

GOOD.

Hon. John Day Smith, OF Minneapo-

speeches OF Mrs. Lease and Hon. Jerry
Simpson. Good! John Day Smith

He is pushed aside in the Republican

MORE VILLAINY.

The Gold Bugs and the two old par
ties united to secure the passage Of a
law by Congress to discriminate
against the silver legal tender money,
by permitting contracts to be made
payable in gold exclusively. A friend
came rushing to us the other day, in
Minneapolis, in high state of excite

All the mortgages on real estate are
drawn with similar gold clause; and
now the scoundrels are trying to put

gold enough in the world to pay one

and it will end in one universal

homes or fall back on their rifles. The

A SHALLOW EXCUSE.

Macdonald says we did him an in
justice in claiming that the daily pa

have been under the control of John
r. Walsh, the millionaire. gold bug
banker of Chicago. who was the owner
at that time Of two of the most furi-
Gus single-standard papers in Chicago;
because,-he says,-Walsh did not
have dollars interest in the paper,
he simply held a mortgage on The
plant" Well, everyone understands
that the owner of mortgage on the
"plant" of a newspaper, which those
who run it have not the money to pay
off, is the practical owner Of the whole

BECOMING RESPECTABLE.

One of the surprising things to be
observed is the change in the
tone of the old party papers in regard
to the Peoples Party. They have
ceased to discuss Senator PETERS
whiskers and Jerry Simpsons socks,
and a decorous gravity has settled
down upon their troubled souls. They
see, in their imagination, the whole
people of the United States rising up,
in solid protest, against their plum
derers. They have got their long ears

A GREAT STATE CONTENTION

The State Central Committee will
issue the call. We suppose one great
state convention will, as in 1892, elect
the nine delegates at large, and their
alternates; and then the members
will divide up, by congressional dis
trcts, and select the remainder of the
delegates and alternates. We suppose
the repreSe ntation will be DIVIDED
among the several districts according
to the Populist vote cast therein in
1894. The state committee will have
to get together soon and agree as to
these matters.
