Palmer and Suckner by the National
Democratic committee will include the
cities of st. Paul and Minneapolis. The
candidates of the National Democrats
will leave Chicago, Oct. 10, on a special
train that will be chartered for the
entire trip, which will include portion
of Michigan, across Wisconsin, into
Minnesota, and then through Iowa, q
portion Of Kansas, Missouri and Ohio.
The first place to be visited will be
Grand Rapids, Mich, and then the vet
eran candidates will go to Milwaukee.
Meetings will be arranged for at inter-
mediate points between the Wisconsin
metropolis and st. Paul, which point
will probably be reached about Oct. 10.
After leaving Minneapolis the train
bearing the candidates will proceed
through Southern Minnesota, stopping
briefly at various points where the can
didates will speak. Other speakers will
probably accompany the party so that
the principals will not be worn out from
frequent calls upon their fund Of ora
tory.
This trip has been planned that the
voters of the Northwestern states,
where the great battle of the cam
paign is TO be waged, may come In
direct contact with the Democratic can
didates who stand on O. platform OF
pure Democracy. It will teach the
rank and file that the question of reg
low Il ~ III I'll
ands of voters to Bryan, is over
Swallowed by the question whether or
not the ancient faith and principles of
Democracy shall be perpetuated. The
effect of the trip, too, will doubtless be
to offset whatever favorable impression
Bryan may have made in his tours
through the same territory The local
committee of the National Democrats
has not as yet heard any definite word
of the time of the arrival of the Palm
err Buclzner party, but 1t is expected
that Information will be received with
in a few days and plans made for d
monster rally ON the occasion.
c. n. Lienau, editor and publisher of
the VclkszeitGng, is in San Diego, Cal,
leaving the management OF his paper
to his son. But even in far away Cal
ifornia, Mr.. Lienau is not without in
fuence in Minnesota. AS a prophet
and adviser he was the strongest of the
Germans in st. Paul and for thirteen
years represented the city in the legis-
lature. In an interview printed in the
San Francisco Call, of recent date, Mr..
Lienau SAYS:
81 have been a Democrat all my life.
was presidential elector for Fremont In
1856, and have been a Democrat ever since.
But l am not for Bryan. My paper will
never support any man who advocates a
reputation of the national debt or anything
that hints of national dishonor In finances or
In anything else. l am an out-and-out Nc
Kinley man, and my paper is an out-and-out
Mckinley paper. Naturally it has consider
able influence as the only German daily In
Minnesota.
Minnesota" continued Mr.. Lienau els
safe for Mckinley. That state has large
proportion of naturaliZed citizens in it and
they perceive more clearly somehow than the
native Americans what great need there is
for a high protective tariff and sound money
in this country. Men who were born and
raised In the old world know what low wages
mean, and they know good thing In the
United States when they see 1t. They are
opposed to anything that will reduce wages
to the standard they know so well In Europe.
They are in favor Of dollar that Is dollar,
and when they work hard for their money
| they want it to be worth something. That
| is the reason why Minnesota is Bafe for No
Kinley.''
What is your opinion of California;
We'll" replied Mr.. Lienau when first
came out to the coast I perceived a rabid
silver sentiment. Everybody seemed to be
inoculated. But the. information that has
come during the campaign has taught voters
more about the money question and the more
they study 1t the less they are for silver. /
see a rapid reduction In the number OF SILL

views OF those who still espouse that cause.
| II the campaign would only continue six
! months you would not find as many silyerites
as there are Prohibitionists now. The cam
paign of education is bringing them around
to Mckinley and sound money They are
seeing palmer every day that prosperity can
not be attained by 'monkeying' with the sta
bility of the money of the country They
were crazy Tor change, and when silver
