THE ISSUE.

conflict between the money powers
and the people. The ten thousand
banks and trust companies under
the direction Of Wall and Lombard
streets have practically closed their
doors against their customers and
demanded prompt payment Of
everything due them. The fact
that this proceeding is Destroy
ing the business Of the country IS
not taken into consideration by the
combination. They have another,
and to them : more importan: mus
sion to perform than to cooperate
with the business community IN
advancing the prosperity Of the
country. They fear that il ordi-
nary facilities are extended 70 their
customers some Of the money will
be used by people for campaign
purposes. such as paying the ex-
penses Of speakers aud circulating
documents. They cannot afford to
have silver literature circulated or
silver debates conducted II they
can prevent it. They know very
we'll that the truth is fatal to their
wicked schemes. Besides they pre-.
pose to increase the poverty Of the
people and intensity the misery
Of the masses which the gold stand
ard has already produced by alb
solutely cutting OF every avenue
by which money can be obtained
for necessary purposes.
They think by that means the
hundreds Of millions Of dollars
which they have at their com.
mand will b. more effective in buy
ing votes than it otherwise would
be. They realize that there is no
hope Of subjugating the people oa
the United States and making them
serfs unless they can 50 impoverish
them that they will sell their man
hood cheap. They boast OF the
hundreds Of millions Of dollars be-
hind Hanna's campaign, and hold
out without . blush enormous brides
to all who will sell themselves and
their country into slavery. The
issue is between American man
hood aud the money Of the world
in the hands at the aristocrats,
despots, and gold gamblers Of
Europe and their toady followers
Of America. II the votes Of the
American people are sold In
November next it may be the last
auction block used for the sale Of
human rights. When American
liberty goes under the hammer to
satisfy the love OF power aud
greed for gold OF the enemies Of
the human race, what other people
aud what other countries will make
the effort and endure the sacrifice
necessary to plant and nourish the
tree OF liberty for the benefit Of
mankind? II the institutions Of
America ciumble before the Gun.

PAlSTEUR SYSTEM
Defended In Spite of the Recent
Apparent Failure

NEW YORK, Dec. 26-Dr. Paul Glib.
Ter, who followed the seven boys to
Baltimore from the Pasteur inetitute In
this city after they had been discharg-
ed as imhnunized from hydrophobia, re-
turned tonight. He refused to say
anything about the death of Robert j.
Henry and Conrad Eppers, two Of the
patients from rabies
DR.. Labladie, Of the institute, said
that the death of the boys did not
prove that the Pasteur system was a
failure. I'VE do not,' he said, "abso-
lutely guarantee that our treatment
will prevent hydrophobia, amy more
than that vaccination is an unques-
tionable preventative against small
pox. About one patient out Of 200 we
have treated has died We cannot tell
whether incubation has been effective
until Is days after the patient has been
treated. The boy Eppers was bitten
about the head and neck, which were
the worst parts of the body to be Bit
ten. The boys were not brought to
the institute until four days after they
had been bitten, instead of being sent
here Immediately. Had they come here
at once, l believe their recovery would
have been assured
Baltimore Dec. 26.-Robert Perry, one Of
the boys bitten by mad dog and treated
at the Pasteur institute, New York died to-
day of hydrophobia This makes the third
victim within the past week. All the boys
forty y-eight hours after receiving their in
juries, and all who have thus died were bitten

Depositors in the suspended Bank of
Minnesota will be pleased to know that
during the week vigorous effort will
be made to formulate basis Of reor-
ssganization for the bank. This action
was decided upon at a meeting held at
the old rooms of the bank yesterday
:afternoon and evening, at which the
|S9Hicers and directors and a number of
stockholders of the bank were present.
The situation was discussed thor
oughly by all present, and after all was
said, 1t was apparent that the meeting
was unanimously in favor of reorgani-
zation, and a resolution was adopted
10 that effect, although it was decided
not to hamper the reorganization COM
mittee by verbose resolution. The
one adopted is brief, but to the point.
as Follows:
Resolved, That it lis the sense of the direc.
TORS, stockholders and persons present at
this meeting that the Bank of Minnesota be
reorganized.
Messrs. William Dawson, E. w. Peet
and Arnold Kalman were made a re-
organization committee, and they will
call the meeting together again as soon
as they have formulated a plan Of re-
organization. They will go to work
Immediately, and from the unanimity
OF sentiment which exists, 1t is believed
that some successful plan Of reorgani-
zatlon Will be agreed upon early in the
week. There seems to be no oppose
tlon on the part either of officers. stock
holders or receivers to speedy settIe-
ment of the banks affairs on a basis
which will permit it's early reopening.

the total loss reaches many thousand

Report on the Years Irrigation
Work in South Dakota.

PIERRE, S. D., Dec. 26.-The report
of the state engineer of irrigation JUST
out is full of information as to the
artesian system of South Dakota, with
statements of results and practical
suggestions as to the best manner to
conduct this work.
Comparatively few wells were SUNK
by the public in 1896, investors being
afraid of the bonds issued for this pur-
pose. their fear being founded on the
decision of the California supreme
court on the Wright law, which Is
very similar to the law of this state.
But now that the United States su-
preme court has sustained that law,
the doubt is removed, and bonds for
the purpose of sinking wells ma
more ready market.
Rr,,le county has taken the lead.
Rrlle commissioners issued warrants
for the purpose and collect from the
Townships and from the land directly
benefited. Up to the present that coun-
ty has issued SIS, ,565 Of such bonds.
Several counties have tried the eX-
pertinent of purchasing well machln-
ery. and allowing parties who desire
to sink wells the use of the machinery:
and in all cases the plan has proved
a failure. While public wells have
been delayed on account of the failure
of townships to float bonds, private
parties have been more active in this
line than in past years, and number
of wells have been sunk by private
capital.
A number of cases are cited where
artesian irrigation has proved COM
plete success, and others where it has
proved failure. In the latter cases
the failure has been largely from the
use of too much water.
The cost of an irrigation plant is put
ait about $40 per acre on half section.
The deep wells are found in all coun-
ties of what is known as the "artesian
basin Of the James river valley" and
the shallow wells from the south line
of Beadle county, especially in the
counties Of Minor, Sanborn, Hutchin-
son. Douglas and Yankton. Hutchin-
son county has 400 of these wells from
sixty to 300 feet deep; Davidson has 100
which average $50 feet in depth, and
flow from 200 to 800 gallons per minute
with little pressure. There are about
LOO Of both classes of wells in the
state, the high pressure wells being in
the counties of Beadle, Sphinx, Brown,
Faulk, Hand, Hyde, Hughes, Jerauld,
Brule and one we'll at Cheyenne agency
and one at Grow Creek, which have
been sunk by the government.

oLNEY is RIGHT
If the View of Ex-MiRister Phelps
Is Correct.

Is Correct.
BURLINGTON, VT, Dec. 26-Hon. E.
J. Phelps, eX-miEister to England,
gives his opinion upon the recognition
of Cuba. in the following language:
81 have no doubt that the position
of Secretary Olney as recently publish
ed is entirely correct. The question
what government shall be recognized
in a country where an attempt at re-
volution is in progress is certainly one
for the executive to determine and not
for congress. No legislation by that
body can under any provision of the
constitution decide. Congress can, of
course, pass resolutions on the subject
if the members please, but they in no
respect can control the discretion or
no government can be recognized until
if exists.
"The government recognized by other
governments when q dispute in regard
to it exists. is always the de facto
government. The recognition by other
governments of a government once in
existence must always continue, ull-
til it is actually subverted, and new
one put in it's place. When it Is over
thrown and another established that
becomes entitled to recognition.
"The rebels in Cuba have no organiz-
ed. government, nor even abiding place,
which they can call their own. They
are merely a guerrilla force, which
would speedily be annihilated if drawn
into a general enga cement with the
much Superior Spanish army. 1t
would be ai3spTtis sto say that such q
fierce itlftes government or that
the Spanish goyeHnInent in Cuba has
been overtbrewa; sor that any diplo-

RED LAKE, Mimi, Dec. 26.-While
the Christmas eve of 1896 was the oc-
casion of much jollifcation the world
over the village Of Red Lake Falls
was doubtless the nerriest, for Gov.
Clough had issued his proclamation es-
tablishing Red Lake county as one of
the legal counties Of the state. The
final act of organization was perfected
today at q. meeting of the county
commissioners. The following officers
were elected: Auditor, w. T. Mullarky,
Thief River Falls; treasurer, M. A.

Red Lake county is a complete victory

which Red Lake is detached.
