Miss Emma =. Bates is putting
in a good deal of her spare time
writing to the ladies around the
state soliciting their votes as the
independent candidate for super
intendent of public instruction.
Miss Bates might just as well
save the time and postage stamps
as it is impossible for her to be
elected. She talks about taking
the Office of superintendent of
public instruction out of politics,
yet she is button-holin voters
and pulling wires even with
more vigor than the old time
politician. Why dide't Miss
Bates stay out of politics two
years ago and run independent:
She was very willing to go into
politics then. Now that she has

commercial value. The free and
unlimited coinage of gold and
silver at the sixteen to one ratio
will not result in bimetallism but
in monometallism with silver the
money of the country. This is
just as sure to follow, according
to the Gresham law, as harvest
time follows seed time. Given

Sound Money Club.

At a meeting in the Thingelstad
schoolhouse Saturday evening Oct. 8,
held for the purpose of organizing a
sound money club, Ole o. Laatvet was
chosen chairman, and John X. Olson,
secretary.
Moved and seconded that the club
be named Sound Money Club.
On motion the chairman appointed
a committee of three on resolutions.
The chair appointed John X. Olson,
Ole X. Thompson and A. FL. Asmund-
son.
The committee offered the following
resolutions which were adopted:
Resolved, That we most heartily en-
dorse the republican national plat
form adopted at ST. Louis, especially
that part relating to our monetary
system. We are in favor of a dollar
that is 100 cents every day. We are
in favor OF protection to American
labor and agriculture. To that end we
pledge the republican party our un-
divided support.
| Remarks were made by S. A. Ness,
Ole O. Laatvet and John K. Olson.
1t seems to be a common belief
among the populists, inspired from
the 'sCoin's Fenancial SchooL' that
the act of 1873 was unconstitutional
and that a ratio between. gold and
silver is fixed by the constitution but
if they would look into the constitu-
ton they would find that ...Coin's
Financial SCHOOL, is not to be de-
pended upon. Here is the constitu-
ton relating to money: It is Article
| /, Section s of the u. S. constitution.
It reads as follows: '.Congress shall
have power to coin money.
regulate the value thereof. and fix the
standard of weights and measures.
Here it don't even say that gold and
silver shall be used for money. Any
man with common sense ought to
know that the constitution of a coun-
try couldn't fix q price on either gold,
silver or anything else.
1t was then moved and carried that
everybody wishing to join the club
sign their names.

Observation-Disclosures Stewart,
didn't you say in 1874, in regard
to the financial question: sThe
question never will be settled
until you determine the simple
question whether the laboring
man is entitled to have gold
dollar if he earns it, or whether
you are going TO CHEAT HIM
WITH SOMETHING ELSE"
Senator Stewart-Yes, I did
say that.
Questioner-Well, then, how
can you now support a policy
that will cheat the laboring man:
Senator Stewart-Well, you
see
Questioner-Of course, I see.
You are now representing the
silver mine owners interest.
You now own silver mines in
Mexico. Oh. yes, l see and the
voters also see.

supplement to it's last weeks is

If the Fargo Argus tells the
truth about the size of the crowd
who gathered to see Bryan last
Saturday, Fargo ought to be
ashamed of itself. Fargo and
Moorhead alone ought to furnish
a crowd of fifteen thousand peo-
pie to say nothing of the outsid-
ers. Why, Cooperstown thinks
nothing of getting together from
three to five thousand people at
an ordinary picnic, and what
would we do if a presidential
candidate visited our town.
Don t mention it.

tutional, just as Judge Rose had held
In the decision of the first five cases
and as he would have decided the last
two cases had he not been compelled
to follow the decision of the supreme
court on that question. This was in
the case of the Northern Pacific Rail-
road Co., vs. Walker, reported In AZ
Federal Reporter, page 6sl.
Afterwards, these two cases last de-
clded by Judge Rose was appealed to
the supreme court and the court con-
stltuted as it was when it first passed
upon the question, whether the Gross
Earnings law was constitutional or
unconstitutional. with the exception
that Judge Morgan instead OF Judge
Winchester sat in the cases, and on
Nov. Sth. 1894. the supreme court then
held the, Gross Earnings law unconsti-
tutional just as Judge Rose held when
he decided the first five cases and thus
reversing its former decision, when it
reversed Judge Rose, and thus atfirm-
ing his decisions in these cases. al
though they seem to be reversed, as
now reported. The last two cases ap-
pear as reversed when in fact they
were decided by Judge Rose contrary
to his own opinion and in accordance
with the first decision of the supreme
court, and consequently he should
heve been credited with having de-
cided them correctly instead of incor-
rectly. These cases are reported in 1
N. d. Reports at pages 4M ind 5O6,
1t will thus be seen that the author
of the article alluded to did not refer
his readers to the books and pages
where they could find the whole truth,
but only part OF the truth about the
subject matter of the article entitled
''lseversals Galore. Such a course
was unfair and unprofessional
towards Judge Rose, aud was equally
as unfair and deceptive towards his
readers, and such conduct should be
deprecated by all fair-minded and
honest men, on the part of any one,
whoever he may be and whatever may
be his aspiration.
The foregoing will enable the people
of this judicial district, and especially
those who through the generosity (?)
of the author have been receiving the
Times-Record containing marked
articles concerning Judge Rose, un-
solicited and free of expense, since the
I'd day of April last, and those which
will continue to be published in said
paper without much doubt until after
election in November next, to see the
motive which has actuated the author
and the publisher of these articles.
The only thing that is not plain to be
seen is the amount which the editor
has received for the valuable (?) and
useful (? y information which he has
thus impaired to the readers Of his
paper

Hon. w. A. Scott, of Fargo,
who was in this city.last Wednes-
day, is the democratic nominee
for state senator in the Fargo
district, to oppose John 3. Hag-
gart. Mr.. Scott is fine gentle
man, and although he is a silver
democrat, his work in the legis-
lature would, to our notion. be
much more to be relied upon
than that of Haggart. Mr..
Scott's election would be the
proper thing in this instance.

the attention Of the voters of
Griggs county to the fact that in
two weeks from next Tuesday
they will be called upon to vote
on the question as to whether
they want constitutional con-

be burdened with more taxes
they will vote for it. If they
don t want more taxes they will
vote AGAINST it. Which do
you want?

One Lesson From History.

One Lesson From History.
In our review of the coinage
laws of this country we have
come down to 1873 the time it is
persistently claimed silver was
delnonetized. Before we pass
that act in /. review it will be
profitable to summarize briefly
the lessons of the history we
have studied. The lamp of ex-
perience is a safe guide to our
feet. Following it we need not
go far astray. There is al
together too much assumption
and too much speculation in the
discussions of the monetary
problem. Let us hold to the
facts embodied in our history.
AS we have set forth the first
coinage act provided for the free
and unlimited coinage of gold and
silver at the ratio of fifteen to
one. The ratio was on the basis
of the commercial value of the
two metals. The real value of
gold and silver is fixed in the
markets of the world just like
other commodities; and this
has been recognized by our
fnanciers down to the present
time; but now there are some
among us who would fix their
commercial value by fat of legis-
lation. The aim is to make the
ratio between gold and silver as
one to sixteen when the real
ratio is more than one to thirty;
but it is hoped and declared that
the sixteen to one ratio will so
appreciate silver and depreciate
gold that they both will circulate
on a parity of value. Past ex-
perience from the first coinage
act down to the last one, is
against this hope and expecta-
tion. No law that was ever en-
acted, Or that ever will be can fix
the market value of any com
modify. So long as gold and
silver are money articles their
value will be two-fold-a money
value and a market value and
the two values may. not be the
same; but unless they can be
kept together, and, as between
the two metals, at the same
ratio, is no wisdom or might
among men able to make them.
This is the verdict of reason and
history. Why kick against it?
Advocating the free and un-
limited coinage of silver and
gold at the ratio of sixteen to one
now, when the ratio between
them is more than thirty to one,
in the expectation of bringing
about bimetallism, is an evil and
will prove to be a bitter thing.
The market value of gold and
silver bullion will never be de-
termined by the mint value; but
the market value will sooner
or later settle which of the two
will be prevailing money of the
country. 1t was so between
1892 and 1884, and 1884 and 1858.
It seems as though enough had
been said on this point. A man
might be heartily in favor of the
free and unlimited coinage of
silver who could not favor it at
the ratio of sixteen to one when
there is such a disparity in their
