veloped during the next campaign. The
bank here has been paying out gold for
nearly all the wheat sold at this point.
The people are so poor that it takes very
little of the stuff to carry on this scheme
of deception. The circle is very short,
from the bank to the farmer and back to
the bank again. 1t simply relieves him
of his immense crop and jumps on board
the same train for the East. There are
two or three parties here who refused
to take the Representative out of the
postofiice. They prefer darkness rather
than light. A few more years of the
gold standard will wind up those gentle
men. Nothing on earth would have
saved them financially this year, but for
two crops in one which we were blessed
with in this vicinity. Those same fools,
Republicans and Democrats would shout
for the free coinage OF silver, or the
whole Omaha platform for that matter.

this can never be, they are following

calf, the most merc.less of all traitors,

. DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED.

BY local applications as they can not
reach the diseased portion Of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
d:tion of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian tube When this tube is inf1amed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
you o-aatwP 0 vev gkqj05 ypdlu f1ff:;
hearing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result and unless the in
flamation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inf1amed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case Of Deafness (caused by Catarrh)

than all the religious editors put togeth-
er. but I hate, and they hate, with all
the hatred that is in US, this deplorable
hypocrisy going on everywhere. We
believe that Christ did not mean that his
lessons should be used for generations
simply to keep the toiling millions tight
in the harness, and believe that IL they
did not do as the Republican stump
speaker told them, the banker would take
their property ,Nandp IL they dared to think
for themselves the devil would take their
souls. Yours Truly,

The signs" admonish us that the
time predicted pointed out by the
Christ. as forerunning his day and pro-
claiming the Kingdom, is now shaking
all governments, and the world asleep at
the dawn of his second genesis, as it was
at his first genesis.
Thirty years ago l settled down ON the
proposition that God had chosen two for
ces, instrumentalities to govern man from
paradise lost to paradise restored. These
two are known now as the church and
the state, one using force, the other per-
suasion. In 1893 put in terse and plain
form the Millennium Age" the mission
of the church during the period named.

AN INDIGNANT SCANDINAVIAN

HE GIVES THE REASON FROM HIS
STANDPOINT WHY THE REFORM
PRESS ATTACK THE MINISTER'S OF
THE GOSPEL.
(The Representative does not want to
get into a religious controversy, but it
will throw open its columns to anyone
who takes the other side OF the question.
Ed. Rep.)
Editor Representative-Noti in the
issue last week your editorial In regard
to that some of the Scandinavian Popu-
list papers are opposed to the church,
and reading in today's issue the start
ling fact that the Scandinavian press in
Chicago and Minnesota received $13, 200
from the Republicans during the last
campaign, take the liberty to inform
you in regard to that miserable press in
this state. The two leading Swedish Sec
kets Tidning' and "Svenska Am Pos
ten," took issue with the Peoples Party
and advocated the whole ticket. But
what did those miserable scoundrels of
so-called' Christian editors do. Sold
themselves, body and soul, like they al
ways did, to Tams Bixby. There was
not one religious paper in the state but
that supported the Republican ticket.
And how can they do otherwise. The
editor Of "Skaffaren," the Swedish L,lth-
cram paper, is as you know, state dairy
commissioner. Minneapolis Veckoblad"
is owned and controlled by Rev. Skogs-
berg or his congregation. and mind you,
when he was building his famous taber-
nacle Mr.. Pf1lsbury drew his check for
$5,000 providing that the said paper for
time and enternity bound itself to sup
port the Republican party. The Baptist
paper did the same, and the Methodist
was IN the same boat. We know all
these Things and consequently we must
tell those rascals the truth have been
in every nook and corner in the state,
as state organizer for the I. o. G.. T. and
know from experience that no class Of
people are so hard to approach on the
subject Of reform as the good, straight,
orthodox church members. Not because
they for one second are willing to abide
by the teaching of Jesus, for him they
care nothing; but the constitution of their
church, the lies of their official paper,
are their platform; on that, and that
alone, they will stand as long as they
can prolong their useless lives. And the
average minister Of the gospel among
the Swedes, o, Lord!
The sum and substance of all the SER
mons have heard out in the country
can truthfully be reduced to the follow
ing: sleep in peace" With this in

why we must show them up. 1 am per-

was born in Olympia, Wash. in 1860, was
brought to this City as an infant and has
resided here ever since. Mr.. Bettman is
graduate of the Washington Grammar

tered business with his father, Nj. Bett-
man, a pioneer of 40, on Front street.

English chemicals and laundry supplies.
On the death of his father the firm was
incorporated under the firm name of M.
Bettman & Co., Sig being the secretary,
treasurer and general manager. The
offices of the concern are at 121 Califor-
