RosEAU Times: The country people
are not such fools as not to know the
cause of Minneapolis opposition to
Clough, which arose from Clough's
support of Nelson in the senatorial
fight. That made him obnoxious to
Minneapolis politicians, but not with
the people. We are not aware that
Gov. Clough is thoroughly unpopular
and without standing in the city where
he: dwells. In his own city he ran
ahead of his ticket several hundred
votes, which alone is evidence that he
was not then Thoroughly unpopular
and without standing at home.'' It is
enough for the people to know that the
governor is giving good, clean, hon
est, business administration to the best
of his abilities, and that the opposition
emanating from Minneapolis is.purely
of a personal nature.

SILVER CARRIES 4IHESENAIE.
After the metropolitan gold organs
have exhausted themselves with shout
ing that the cause of silver is dropping
the United States senate, the conserva-
tive body in American politics, passes
a, free coinage Of silver bill by vote
of ~ to IS. y'Seven Votes to Spare"
is what the dailies say in their head
lines, thus multiplying twelve months of
false statements regarding the s'droop-
ing condition of the popular move
mont for bimetallism. ~.t
The senate bill which passed by the
above strong majority was a substitute
for the gold bond measure demanded
by the administration The senate
substitute provides that the United
States mints shall be opened to the
free coinage of silver, as of gold, at the
present ratio of Is to l. It further
provides for the coinage of the silver
seigniorage, something like one hun
dred millions worth, now lying idle in
the government vaults. Coin certifi-
Gates are authorized to be issued on
this silver Immediately, so as to make
it available to the business of the coun-
try without delay. To assist the silver
certificates to find prompt circulation,
it is provided that no bank notes of less
than $40 shall hereafter be issued, and
that all bank notes of less than $40 now
outstanding shall be taken up and can
celled. This would break up the grip
which banks now maintain over the
circulation and stop them in all at
tempts to keep Silver and the certif-
Gates out of circulation One of the
most nota BILE sections of the bill is that
which provides that greenbacks and
treasury notes shall be redeemed in
standard silver dollars or in gold at
the option Of the treasury. This would
give the treasury the power to defeat
the operations Of the gold syndicate in
draining the treasury gold for export.
We. regret that Minnesota's senators
were not among the AZ Western and
Southern senators who passed this bill
over the opposition Of the East and the
influence of the Democratic admins
tration.
The gold bond measure which the
senate bill substitutes was fine thing
for the gold exporters, the European
gold scramblers and possibly for the
national banks and bond olders who
supported it. But as measure rep
resentative Of the needs and demands
of the people, no bill has been intro
duced in congress since the war more
open to just criticism. The country
has had enough Of bond issues during
the past two years of Grover Cleveland
