FIX. ESTATE SENATOR E. b.
LOMMEN OF POLK COUN-
TY TO BE OUR NEXT
CONGRESSMAN.

CONGRESSMAN.
The Kandiyohi delegation for
the Peoples Party Convention at
Fergus Falls left on the 80 p.
m. train for Fergus via St.
Cloud last Tuesday. We arrived
at Fergus Falls $40 p. m. The
town was already full of enthus-
lastic populists, and more and
more of them were arriving on
every incoming train. There
were probably 400 strangers in
the city to participate in, and
watch the out come of the con-
vention. The Convention was
an unqualified success in every
respect, and throughout unan-
unity, peace and harmony pre-.
vailed.
Mr.. Lommen, the nominee is a
farmer of Polk County.
He was born in Winer-
sheik county, Iowa, about 80
years ago. He received his edu-
cation in the common schools of
the county, the Breckenridge
Institute, DEBORAH, Iowa, and
the Upper Iowa University at
Fayette County. Iowa. For a
mber Of years he engaged in
teaching in Iowa and Minnesota
and finally settled down on
farm in the town of Lowell, Polk
county, MINI. In 1890 he was
elected to the State Senate by an
overwhelming majority. He
proved himself a true and eff
Gent legislator on various matters
of interest to his constituents
and state at large. Mr.. Lommen
is Of Norwegian parentage and
passes a Characteristic Scandi-
navian physiogomy. Though
small Of stature. you see the hon
est, resolute, serious, earnest ex-
preston in his face, that indi-
Gates an untlinching determina-
ton to do what he considers his
duty nder all circumstances. He
may not be what we call brilliant,
but you feel instinctively thatyou
are in the presence Of a capable,
Industrious and painstaking in
dividual, whose honesty and in
tegrity cannot be questioned.
Populists will have no excuses
to make for the conduct of Mr..
LOmmen.
The farmer of the seventh
congressional district can now
give his support, to real
farmer who will ably advocate
their cause, and representation in
the national council with honor
to himself and his constituents.
Mr.. Lommen is emphatically a
clean man, socially, morally and
politically. He is a strong man
the strongest no doubt up
north-politically. He had the
united and unanimous support of
the region north of the Northern
Pacific Railroad. He will receive
an enormous vote there, enough
his friends claim, and we readi-
ly believe, to Offset any advan-
tage Eddy may have by virtue of
his location in the south end of
the district. "
If Populists do their duty Mr..
Lommen cannot be defeated.
He will will challenge Eddy to
a. joint discussion throughout
the district, and we are much
mistakenif Eddy doesn' tget some
of the conceit taken out Of him.

WHICH SHALL 1T BE?

A cheerful outlook is before tie
people Of the United State if the
predictions of the two great poll
tical parties can be trusted. On
the one hand it is the assertion
that if Bryan is elected every
moneyed man in the country will
hasten to realize on his invest
ments and safely house his CAPT
tai before the hobgoblin of free
silver and "a deprecated cur
rency' looms into view; thereby
causing the greatest stringency
in money ever known, followed
by universal panic. On the
other hand is the certainty that
if Mckinley is elected the pre-
sent financial system, under
which the widespread business
depression of the past few years
has come into being, will be per-
petuated, with the addition of an
extra ten or twenty per cent in
tariff charges, to be paid out of
the depleted pockets of the con-
sumers of the country. The
choice is pleasant one, truly.
Shall we continue to be ground
between the upper and the neither
mill-stones of high tariff and the
continual flow of the country's
gold to Europe, with periodic
bond issues, interest bearing, to
Call it back; or shall we run the
risk Of gold going to a premium
and all the available capital in
the land locking itself into vaults
and strong boxes, commerce
coming to full stop and indus
tries struggling against univer-
sal paralysis? These are the two
extremes that are promised US.
Which horn of the dilemma shall
we select for our implement?
There seems no escape from one
OF the other. Even the "sound
money democrats" who have al
ready bolted Bryan's nomination
and the platform he stands on,
offer no hope of any relief short
of four years hence. They urge
a third convention, third nomi.
nee, and a. grim and hopeless cam
paign, the end of which is certain
defeat, in the vague expectation
that four years later they will be
found to be the true lightbear-
ers. This suggestion of a boil
ters campaign now for the effect
that it will have in the closing
year OF the century is not with.
out it's ludicrous aspects, No
matter how urgent it's advocates
may be, they will not rally cor
poral's guard to it's support. 1t
is out Of the bounds of reason. In
it's pursuit Of principle it would
sacrifice all principles, for it is
the president that will be elected
this year. and the ideas for which
he stands, that will decide the
future of the country-not an A.
D. 1900 possibility. So we re-
turn to the original proposition.
When this is considered closely
it does not look SO hopeless as at
first sight. There is no question
whatever that another era of
rampant prOtectlOnism would do
the country iucalculable harm.
Every voter knows that higher
duties mean higher prices for
every necessity Of life, with no
increase Of money with which to.
pay. McKinleyism offers no.
other remedy than this. He.
would not alter the existing mo-
netar system. He would con
.tinue to- feed the bankers Of
Europe Euro as the country has been
doing il the past. Any bod J who
believes that the United States
has been ex perie11 ciing hard
