THE NEW MEN.
erl9iN- Of Puphlo 90 We.

G. amherlai'. OF Pueblo, says:
1T is time the Populist party should
give credit to the men who made the par
ty and keep it alive. The fellows who
must be carried on a fcatherbcd to keep
them from getting mad, seldom do any
thing but yell"
Some of the 'white-livered goslings' are
as they think. doing a great work using
their heels. But, well-you know a tumble
bug is always largest when first born, and
he plods "merrily' along rolling his ball
of compost. So with the new BORN
Nonconformist."
Our friend is perhaps not liberal
enough. We never can win with our
present numbers; we have got to have
additions, by the million, if we are eyer
to carry the country or any of the
states. 1t is therefore important to
hold out the hand of welcome to all
who desire to join us, and not to in
sist that the honors shall all go to
those who were the pioneers in the
movement. We don't want to make the
party an exclusive association. but
build it like ancient Thebes, which had
one hundred gates opening to all points

HITS THE HILLS EVE.

Geo. N. Lamphere, of the Moorhead
News, let's go center shot at old par
ty practices as follows:
1t appears from publications in the Min
neapOlis and ST. Paul papers that certain
recognized leaders of the three wings of
opposition to the Republican party AMI
the gold supremacy in Minnesota. held a
conference in Minneapolis last Saturday.
and agreed upon platform or policy to
govern the reform forces in this state.
While we have fault to find with the
outline Of principles thence enuncated.
we have to say that we have very posi-
tive objections to the manner Of their pro-
mitigation and question the authority Of
those present to map out a course for
the rank and file to follow. Authority
should spring from exactly the opposite
source; the stream should run downward
from the source and gather strength in
It's course, instead of starting from the
Gam and attempting to run up. II the
meeting was intended to gather the opin-
ions of the opposition to present party in
power and to put them in concrete shape
as the authoritative principles Of platform

been extended, so that places and districts
outside OF Minneapolis, st. Paul, Duluth
and Bird Island might have had repre-
sentauves present. Or better call should
nave been extended and the election Of
delegates requested to meet for a confer
ence. The newspapers may have exagger-
ated the Importance of the meeting and
possibly the participants had no notion Of
committing anybody to their plan as pro-
mulgated. but 1t may as well be understood
now as later that the idea of few men
meeting in a closed room in secret ses-
sion and formulating a set Of principles
and choosing candidates, is too much like
old party methods to be reished by the
voters who must be relied upon to give
force and effect thereto. Whether the par

A TERI REBUKE.

Sidney M. Owen, Prof. Dobbyn and
Major Bowler are tearing their shirts
and rupturing their suspenders to
force the Peoples party into Demo-
cratic fusion.
The Eastern end Of the Democracy is
controlled by the great Tammany So
ciety, of New York Not long since
that society distributed what was left
of it's campaign fund of $4,000 among
different parties, and $500 was sent to
the Rev. James w. Putnam, pastor Of
the Trinity Baptist church, of New
York. who returned the check with this
singing rebuke:
Dear Mr.. Dowling:-We are in straits for
funds to prosecute our many-sided work
among the poor of this district Our own
pockets have been empted again and
again, and still men, women and children
appeal. Clothing bread shelter and help
Of all kinds are sought each day. We long
to minister to each worthy applicant
There is nothing along the human side Of
our understanding we SO much need as
money, and yet, kind sir, 1 cannot accept
the proffered check. 1 dare not touch 1t
Coming as 1t does from a society which
represents much which is most to be de-
plored by all well-disposed persons, It
would seem to be but little less than a
crime to take your ill-gotten gains, even
for such deserving object.
And in closing I am prompted to COM
mend the following scriptures for the

FUSION IN KANSAS.

That great Populist leader Hon. Fl.
L. Loucks, editor of one of the leading
Peoples party papers of South Da-
kota, prints the following item:
The official returns show that the Popu-
list reverse in Kansas was even worse
than at first reported. Out of the thirteen
judges elected the Populists get but two.
the Democrats two and Republicans nine
This under a complete fusion of forces.
Verify nothing like fusion to destroy a
reform party. And yet there are "Pops''
who think fusion is the only way TO
strengthen the Peoples party. Queer.
isn't it?
A year ago Kansas was believed to
be solidly and permanently anti-Re-
publican. We can see here what fusion
has done. A year ago l was in Kan
sas in the campaign in 1896, making
speeches for Bryan, and I had the most
earnest and enthusiastic audiences that
we ever met. We therefore speak ad-
visedly when we say that it was over
whelmingly Populistic in sentiment.
Now all this seems to be changed
1t illustrates what we have often
said, that if we put two and two to-
gether, we don't always have four-you
may have 0se, because in any effort to
fuse discordant elements there is al
ways more or less breaking lose on ell
sides. The better way Is to proclaim
your principles and stand by them to
the end. Id

franchise that nearly ruined the city,
that this company is still scheming
With the council to get other like
concessions. An Indignation mass
meeting is held and an Indignation
committee Is appointed and instructed
to demand referendum to popular
vote OF pending franchises. The chair
man and secretary OF the city council
refuse to order referendum because
the Indignation committee meet "op
position" and because the city council
would thereby become "allied" with
the indignation movement.
In 1895 schemers at st, Louis nearly
ruined the Peoples party. recent star
chamber meetings bear evidence that
they are plotting for further conces-
s1ons along the same lines. An in
digation meeting was held at Nash
Vile and st. Louis and a committee
appointed to demand referendum of
pending Peoples party franchises. It
would seem to us that In all such cases
our state central committee to escape
all charges of alliance with either fac
ton would be to throw the whole mat
ter upon referendum vote at such
conference as is proposed in st. Paul.
Let the people deal with these schemes
by direct vote if any schemers a-e
found and then certainly our state CEN
trail committee cannot be charged with
holding the peoples hands while tN
robbers picked their pockets. No one
Will then charge that our committee
has formed an unholy alliance with
fusion.

GOVERNMENT LOANS.

When the Populists proposed that
the government should loan money on
good farm security to help distressed
farmers get ON their feet We were met
by howl of protest and execration
that was deafening. It was true that
the government was lending bank pa
per, printed and paid for by itself, to
bankers for a rate of interest of / per
cent per annum. These bankers were
rich and prosperous and did not need
any such gratuity. But when it was
suggested that it was to the interest
of the whole country that the produce
Ing class should not be driven off the
soil by usurers, and that the govern
ment should loan them money at per
cent per annum, 1t almost bred a revo-
luton In Wall street. And now we
find in our news items the following
report from across the water.
PARIS. Dec. 4.-The budget and financial
experiments of the government are puzzling
the Meline cabinet. The ministers seem
determined on carrying out their farmers
the farmers growing crops and agricul-
tural products. The committee Of the cham

nous in its favor and it will doubtless pass
In the mean time the government Of
England has, for years past, been lend
ing money to the Irish peasants to en-
able them to obtain homes. But this
country is not governed by the people
but by the money class; and nothing
can be expected to produce good times
and help the struggling poor to make
an honest living until the power passes
from the bankers into the hands OF
the Peoples party.

THAT LETTER FROM f.. G. GIBBS

Elsewhere we publish a letter from
Hon. F. c. Gibbs, chairman of our state
central committee.
We fully agree with Mr.. Gibbs that
the questions now pressing our party
for solution require the wisdom Of a
Soloman. When questions Of great
moment confront city councils, state
legislators and other law making bodies
it is very common practice to refer
such important questions back to the
constituency. Such reference by these
law-making bodies to their constituency
is the practical application of the refer
platform and is Endorsed by every true
Populist.
II then our state central committee
is confronted with a preplexing ques-
ton why not relieve themselves from
considerable responsibility by refer
ring such question to the referendum
decision Of large and representative
gathering of Populists such as is pro-
proposed for JAN 4 and in st. Paul?
Mr.. Gibbs says the question at issue
is not one of principles or platform, but
wholly a question of policy. Under
our party gospel questions of policy
equally with questions Of principle
should be submitted to the referendum.
The object of the Nashville conference.
ho
ly appointed organization committee is
to hold the party and all it's commit
tees to the practical application of
this referendum principle in all matters
OF party concern. This organization
committee is charged by it's enemies
with being a disrupting committee. AS
we understand the matter the only
mission of this committee was to bring
about a referendum on important mat
tiers of what Mr.. Gibbs terms policy"
within our own party lines At this
word policy we pause to suggest
that policy is the bane Of old paray
politics and stands directly opposed to
the referendum. If any policy is to
be adopted certainly all our people
should have a voice in 1t.
Mr.. Gibbs seems 10 hesitate abou1
Joining this organization committee in
call for referendum conference as
proposed, and assigns as his reasons
first, violent opposition that commit
tee is meeting all over the state" and
second, such action would "ally" Lis
committee with faction of our party.
To illustrate Mr.. Gibbs position let
us suppose that the Minneapolis Street
Railway company In SO or thereahout
obtained from the city government a
