GRAND FORKS, N. D, Feb. 10, 1896
Editor Northwest News: I d-sire to
call the attention OF POUR readers to the
Importance OF Coins Financial School
to pave the way to q thorough knowl
edge of the money question.
All our eminent scholars began their
education with a primer. ANY one
who would start a scholar on anything
but a primer would be laughed az.
These of US who write TO reach old
party readers assume that they under
stand the money question, the same as
we do ard our points, which are clear
to Us, cannot be understood by them
Coins Financial School treats the
money question like a primer wish
simple statements and simple pictures
to illustrate it the same as we had when
we were children. Nest Of the people
who belong to the old parties, even
bankers, doctors, lawyers, clorgymen
and school teachers are only children
in their knowledge Of the money Ques-
ton and must have the same simple
teaching that a child requires when he
begins to read.
Coins Financial School gives this. 1t

in the Norwegian language and can be
had in Norwegian or the English,
German, Swedish or Bohemian at ten
cents a copy IN good sized packages
postage prepaid, or for eleven cents to
single addresses.
By having it sent from the home
office through the postofice it saves
three cents a copy postage, but when
1t is to be distributed in towns it will
come in packages and be handed
around, or ali that are coming &c one
~posCcffice can be sent to one address,
say the pOstm8ster's and the list OF
names Of those who have subscribed
at that pOstctic8 given to him, ard
when the package comes he can dis
tribute them to the subscribers,
the same as postmasteT8 usGd 10 do
years ago to club subscribers OF news
papers.
This book has created more stir and
alarm with the money power and mo-
nopOlies than any ether book yet pub.
llshod, and that IS a very safe inclca
ton TO US that it is the proper book to
circulate.
know Of one Of these books which
was read by five gold standard R-pub
licans and It converted them all. They
were very much against free Coinage
until they read it. These we're intclli-
gent men, and Il a member Of our
State legislature IL North Dakota at
this time.
There is 70 fund anywhere to put

men are all poor.
The monopoIics are ell against free
coinage Of silver because it will give
them a dollar that bugs only half OF
what the dollar now does, ard will
double the price Of everything there is
not a monopoly On, making wheat in
North Dakota about double its present
price. If free coinage helped the mo.
uopolies out they would put up money
to promote it, but it does nos. They
are afraid Of it and against it.
In every county l would like to see

now say because we have never given

when they get to fully understand the
subject no gold standard or monopoly

will be safe for all time and go preach
ing TO others and convert them to the
doctrine of the equal coinage and
money privileges of the two metals.
