a battle is being waged betwe
good Government. The letter
Chicogo, Oct. Is, 1896,
Hon. Marion Butler, Chairman
Peoples Party Committee
Dear Sir:
However much Populist may
have differed at st. Louis as to the
correct policy to adopt /; however
much some of us may still believe
that mistakes were made, under
existing circumstances there is on
ly one course to pursue, and that
is to loyalty and earnestly support
Mr.. Bryan-not so much for the
sake of elevsting him to the Presi-
dency, as for the purpose of de-
feating what may be appropriate
lv and most expressively termed
Mark Hanna Republicanism. Al
though some of us may regret GER
tain fusion arrangements which
have been made, it is a noticeable
fact, that no other man in the
United States is so much troubled
about it as the manager of the Re-
publican campaign. / never reali-
zed before how highly Republicans
have always respected" and 'hon-
ored" the Populist Party still it
fused with the Democrats" Ii
any consolation is needed, howev-
er, for this loss of Republican es-
teen it may be found in the tact
that Messrs. Cleveland, Carlisle
and Palmer have become the lega-
tees thereof.
Our political allies in this cam
paign may not have treated us as
fairly and Justly as they ought, in
the matter of representation OF
vice-presidential electors and this
seems to be the chief cause OF
complaint, for l have yet to meet
with a Populist, who does not ad-
NIT that Mr.. Bryan is the ablest
and most fearless champion OF re-
form principles, that the reformers
themselves have chosen in the last
twenty years. 1t is an event in
history to find a man, backed by
more than four million voters, who
has the patriotism and courage to
stand up front faced before the
combined money power OF the
world and hurl in their teeth the
burning words of defiance: "You
shall not cruelty mankind on a
cross of goldw Mistakes may have
been made and injustice may have
been done, especially in the south
ern states where the flower of tho
Popullst army is to be found, but
this is not the time to settle ac-
counts, adjust wrongs, discuss diff
ferences or correct mistakes. We
are in the face of the enemy we
are upon the field of battle, the
welfare of our country is at stake,
a sacred cause is trembling in the
balance, our opponents are danger
ously well equipped and thorough
ly organized, and the contest is
fierce and relentless all personal
ambitions therefore should be sup
pressed, all personal grievances
should be forgotten, and all minor
differences should be deferred till
the battle is won or lost. Every
gun should be turned upon the
common enemy.
Whether Mr.. Bryan is a Popu-
list or not, one thing is absolutely
certain, every enemy which re-
formers have encountered during
tho last twenty years we find to-
day among his bitterest an most re-

ration lawyer, every millionaire
coal baron, every shylock creditor
and every plunderer of the worlds
wealth-producers-all of these old
time enemies whom reformers have
met on so many battlefelds, are
to-day Mr.. Bryan's enemies. If
they are his enemies he must be
our friend. His success is their
defeat /; their defeat is our victory.
We the pioneer workers, have
all fondly hoped that we might
have the satisfaction and the glory
of carrying to victory the time
hOnOred and battIe-scarred flag of
reform which the old guard has
held aloft so bravely and heroically
all these long and trying years,
and anxious solicitude as to the
outcome may be excusable. But
let us not be unnecessarily alarm
ed about the future of the reform
movement. 1t has passed the dan
ger point, 1t is capable of taking
care OF itself under any and all
circumstances Traitors cannot be-
try it; time e-servers cannot sell it
out injudicious friends cannot
destroy it; defeat cannot demoral-
ize it its opponents, however pow
erful and crafty, cannot crush it !;
even the gates of hell cannot pre-
vail against it. For twenty years,
although subjected to all the dan
gerous pitfalls, perils and quick
sands incident to the development
of new party, it has grown to be
the greatest factor in the arena of
American politics to-day. And,
if elected, l believe that Mr.. Bry-
an win not be slow to recognize
this fact, and that he will soon
learn to rely upon the cOunsels and
support of the new party which
has revolutionized the politics of
the country, forced to the front
new and vital issues and made it
possible for the people instead of
office-seeking politicians to place
champion of progressive ideas at
the head of the government. /
believe that he will appreciate the
fact that we have placed in the
hollow of his hand, not only the
unselfish hopes and patriotic aspi-
rations of the Populist party but
the most sacred cause that was
ever entrusted to living man, and
that he will not betray the trust.
In conclusion, permit me to say
that if my twenty years of work
entities me to the confidence of my
co-workers let me ask them to lay
aside every other consideration and
help elect Mr.. Bryan-not for his
sake, but for the sake of the prin-
ciples which we all hold dear and
sacred. If success is achieved the
Populist party can never be deni-
ed the glory of the victory. If
defeat awaits us, and our standard
bearer falls let there he no Popu-
list arrows found either in his
breast or in his back. Let the res
possibility rest upon other should
ers than our own.
Sincerely yours.

porter induced him to relate his eX-
perience with the willy Sioux His mar
row escapes were related as incidental
features of the train of events, while
the humorous occurrences were deeply
impressed upon his memory. Mr..
Kent's story is here given in full:
1 began freighting on the old Bur
bank route in the winter of 1851 and
made regular trips from st. Cloud
through Richmond, Sank Center, Alex
andria, Pomme de Terre, Fort Aber-
crombie and Georgetown through to
Fort Garry, now Winnipeg. 1t was
In August, 1862, when 1 drove into
Georgetown from Fort Garry with a
fourmule team that I first learned of
the actual outbreak, although there
had been rumors that the Sioux were
preparing to don the war paint and
engage in savage warfare against the
white settlers AT Georgetown the
news had just been received, and Capt
John Van der Horck, who command
ed the garrison at Fort Abercrombie,
had called in the lieutenant and TWEEN
ty men who had been stationed at the

with the soldiers, but many of them
remained at Georgetown and others,
together with their families, came in
later.
Commodore N. w. Kittson-he did
not wear the title at that time, how
eVer-was then with a treaty party on
his way to Red Lake. This party had
with them several wagons loaded with
treaty goods which were to be used
in effecting treaty with the Red Lake
Indians. Kittson's party decided to
stay at Georgetown, and Kittson was
chosen captain of the settlers, who

wagons were unloaded and the goods

building of the company was strength

portfolios were cut through the logs
so we could fire upon the Sioux in case
they attacked us without exposing
ourselves as targets for their guns.
The building was several rods from
the Red river, and there was no stock

Special Correspondence Of the Globe.
NEW YORK; Jan. 16.--It has often
been noted that the children OF great
men seldom compare favorably with
their progenitors in point OF ability.
This may be and doubtless is in great
measure due TO the fact that the orig
inaI standard set is so high that it is
impossible for any one short Of a Won
der to gauge UP to it satisfactorily. At
any rate, it does appear to be true
that statesmen inventors, generals and
professional men generally seldom
leave children who are above medioc-
rity Rather they are frequently far
below it. This, however, cannot be
truthfully said of the children of actors.
Outside of the fact that most of the
well known and most prominent stars
of the present time a-e of theatrical
stock many of them are only the nat
ural successors of parents whose excel
lent work has been commended by the
generation now nearing the sere-and-
yellow-leaf period. The instances might
be multiplied almost indefinitely. but a
few only are necessary to demonstrate
the correctness of the proposition.
To begin at the top, Junius Brutus
Booth, who was by many regarded as
the very best of the dust American
tragedians. was the father of Edwin
ever lived anywhere, ar John Wilkes
Booth, the assassin of President Lin
coin, who, it is generally asserted, real
ly believed that he was superior as
an artist to his wonderful brother
Then, too, there was Junius Brutus Jr.,
who thought he was an actor, and
probably would have been tolerable at
least had 1t not been that any little
luster that he might have had was
hopelessly dimmed by the brilliancy
of his brothers,.
E. H. Sothern, at the present time
one OF the most successful of the
younger stars of the American stage,
is worthy son of a distinguished
sire. Young Sothern did not jump into
a comfortable, ready made stellar berth,
either His present position is due to
the persistence with which he cultivat-
ed the inherited talent under circum-
stances which were frequently the re-
verse of encouraging. True, it is ex-
ceedingly probable and almost certain
the great Taord Dundreary he would
never have been given the opportunity
to show what he could or could not do
Still the chance came, and the ability
which was his by inheritance came
to his rescue and landed him in the
position of successful star E. H.
Sothern has brother who is an actor
in his company. His name is Samuel,
but that makes very little difference,
inasmuch as nothing that Samuel is
likely to do in a histrionic way will
place the Hudson river in serious dan
ger of imminent confiagra ton. Still
he is by no means bad actor and in
some roles has done really credltable
work.

A Curious Game.

1t is curious fact and has often been re-
marked by the patent office authorities that
there are more inventions made in connec-
ton with walking canes than with anything
else man makes Of And. according to
Popular Science News, it is another strange
fact that there have been fewer real i'm
proyements made upon the cane. considering
its age than upon anything else, for the
cane itself is Of the oldest inventions If
not the oldest. 1t dates back to the age
when primitive man. roaming through the
forests. picked up the fallen boughs of trees
to assist his progress over the rough ground
and to beat back the attacks of ferocious
foes But some one has contriyed a
cane which Is at the same time an electric
light.
The cane is hollow and the interior is
filled nearly to the top with the necessary
chemical solution. The knob is really an in
candescent bulb. with an ornamental and
protective covering of nickel or silver. which
either unscrews or flies open at touch upon
q spring.
The poles of the battery extend into the
hollow OF the cane, but not far enough 10
reach to the acid. But when a light Is de.
sired, the cane is held knob downward the
acid attacks the zines and the electricity
generated lights the bulb. They give out a
really surprising amount of light and last
nearly two hours.
