produces an increase of business fail
ures and mortgage foreclosures, while
an increase Of prices has always les
sened and decreased business failure
and mortgage foreclosures; and in
view of the fact that the prosperity of
this country rests on the prosperity of
the agricultural class which predomi-
mates over any other interested class,
and that as these farmers get this in
crease in price it will enable them to
cancel their indebtedness or reduce it
with every business interest dependent
on them for patronage and success
and increase their bank deposits and
meet their mortgage Indebtedness it
stands to reason that these results
will be brought about by the election
OF Bryan and that rising prices can
not be made productive of business
failures and mortgage foreclosures.
Therefore all business men who are
embarrassed, farmers and others and
all good citizens should vote for w.
]. Bryan and bring to every one pros

WILLIAM H. STANDISH.
Grand Forks N. D.

Henry Feig, after playing his
pantomine, and exhaustive medi
tation show ~ is out with his
awaited manifesto. We are not
surprised, nor anybody else that
knows the Harrison statesman.
Less than month ago Mr.. Feig
was talking big silver talk around
the corners, and was great John
Lind man, because, you know,
John Lind was right on the mon
ey question. He voted for John
Lind for senator two years. ago.
And he was telling the Swedes
around Atwater, we are told, that
DR.. Johnson was opposed to John
Lind, evidently to prejudice the
Doctor with Swedish populists.
But now it is all changed. He
cannot affiliate himself with such
socialists, anarchists and repudi.
ationists as John Lind. OF
course not. He knows Lind is
coming to this county, and he
warns the people of Kandiyohi
county against him in the follow.
ing language:
''Voters of Kandiyohi county
and especially you Of the farming
vocation; Don't let the siren
voice of the agitator John Lind
of course) turn you from the path
of honesty
Henry is a dandy. He has
made many political somersaults
in his days, and he is equal to the
occasion yet.

THE REAL ISSUE.

The real issue before the peo-
pie is not any longer whether it
is desirable to have free coinage
of silver or not. That question
is settled in the minds of a large
majority of the people. All in
telligent republicans even admit
that our present money system
has proved a total failure. You
never heard them say any more,
that we have the best money sys-
tenn in the world as they used to.
Oh no, they know, all intelligent
citizens know, that our money
system is hodgepodge pot
pOuri under which business can
not be permanently established.
A large majority of the voters in
this state, at any rate, are also
convinced that the free coinage
of silver at the present legal ratio
is the most reasonable and con-
sentative measure of monetary
reform that can be inagurated.
There is no need of arguing that
question any longer, tits threshed
straw. Those who do not admit
that now, never will by reason of
arguments. But the real ques-
ton now is in the minds of a
large number of those who be-
lieve in free coinage, is whether
it is possible to inaugurate the
change in the face of the deter
mined opposition of the great
moneyed interest. Whether in
fact the patient can stand to take
the specific for the cure of the
cause Of the disease while he is
in the hands of nurses opposed to
the favorable action of the medi-
cine? That is the question at is
sue. It is no use to hide it. It
must be met square1y and openly
or we cannot get the full rate of
those who really believe in free
silver. .s ...s.
Let our campaigners and can.
didates for Office show to the farm
ers and business men, heavily
involved IN debt, how they can
and will be saved from the
squeeze Of the moneyed interest
in case we establish free coinage
Of silver, and we shall carry Min
nesota at least, by g large major
.iIy. Let them show what means
and chinery the nation and the.
state have to prot ct the people
From bankruptc while we carry
out our policy That The ques==
ton that must be met Is the sas

IN GOOD COMPANY.

The Lincoln anarchists" of
this day will do we'll to collect and
preserve, for the benefit of their
''honest'' gold bug friends, some
of the utterances of the great
leaders of the past who fought
the battles Of the people.
Thomas Jefferson said of the
banking question, which is in
volved in this campaign:
Il believe that banking institu-
tions are more dangerous to our
liberties than standing armies.
Already they have raised up a
money aristocracy that has set
the governmental defiance. The
issuing power should be taken
from the'banks and restored to
the government and the people
to. whom it belongs. Let the
banks existsr1llakelet them bank
on cash or my notes"
Said Daniel Webster:
Liberty cannot long endure in
any country where the tendency
is to concentrate wealth in the
hands of a few"
Said Garfield:
'Whosoever controls the vol
ume OF money of any country is
absolute master of all industry
and commerce.
Said sthe great Lincoln:
"lf a government contract a
debt with a certain amount of
money in circulation, and then
contracted the money volume be-
fore the debt was paid, it is the
most heinous crime that a gov
eminent could commit [,against
the people," -
): And again said Lincoln: 49,.
Gas a result of the war corpor-
ations have been enthroned and
an era of corruption will follow.
The money power of the country
will endeavor to prolong it's reign
by playing upon the prejudices of
the people until all wealth is con
centrated in a few hands and the
republic is destroyed. Before
God, I fear more for the safety Of
my country now then in the
midst Of the wal. -: = .==.s.ss .:5.
