THE POPS ARE THE BUSY PEOPLE.

AG VIC Opullol ucSO1uS III oO' L dul
last week there was not a single repre-
sentative from this entire Seventh
Congressional district. The people
calamity bowler this year.-The Nor
man County Index. ;
Why lie? The Populists in the Sew
enth Congressional District are, near
ly all of them, too poor to make trips
to St. Paul and back again on politi-
cal errands now. We should have at
tended but for the fact that we could
not afford to spend the cost of the trip.
Boen's Fergus Globe.
We beg leave to differ slightly with
Bro. Boon regarding this matter. 1t
is a fact that among the spopulists
of our section you will find many too
busy to spend much time with politics
these days. While many of the Re-
publicans are standing still looking
and hoping for the great tidal wave of
prosperity that they hope will come,
the Populists are hard at work to adj
just themselves to existing conditions
as best they can. In every line of bus
mess - merchandising, ;. professions,
creameries and intensified and pro-
gressive farming you will find the Pop
in the lead in this county. We have
been getting out from under during the
last few years, and now propose; to do
the bulk Of the business in the; future.
tits the, fellows who have lived by
faith in republican promises of pros
perity that will do the calamity howl
ing in the future. We Pops objected
to having the gold-standard fixed on
this nation. But it is no worse for us
than men of other political parties.
And where this adjusting process has
ruined one populist it has ruined a
hundred republicans. The latter are
the ones that have been waiting for
prosperity during the last nine months
while the Pops knew what to expect
and have been at work. .-.::
No, Bro. Boon, we are not as poor
as you make it out. We venture to
say that in ten years from now the
very men who have been prominent in
the Peoples Party movement will be
the substantial men in througho ut this
section of the state. We are going to
take up the business enterprises vaca-
ted by the busted gold-bugs. And we
have had the schooling that fits us to
enter upon the new business methods
of the future, while the erstwhile old
party luxurious and effeminate wind
bag aristocracy will either have to re-
form their business methods or emil
CRATE to some other cline, We, Pops,
recruited wholly from the common
people, are not politicians. We don't
understand how to carry an. election.
The republicans can put; a coat and
hat upon rotten basswood stick, Ia
bel it republican candidate for Office,
and elect it; over the best and brightest
man in the community put up. by 9th

Q business enterprise, work a, farm so
that it will pay, run a cooperative
creamery, fire insurance association.
or teach q school: the Pop can march
to the front every time. :: The Pops are
now giving their attention to business.
We have got to do this, particularly
while SO many of our republican breth-
rem are SO distracted hunting for office
as to be unable to do anything. CD.

A. MASSACHUSETTS SERMON

bert N. Casson, in the pulpit of his
church. in Lynn on Sunday, preached
a remarkable sermon, in which he de-
nouneed Mark Hanna in scathing
terms. What can be the matter with
old Massachusetts? Has she awakened
from the dream of prosperity for her
'laboring people? The reverend gen.
tleman said in part:
{ { ''Thespresent question is not which
reform shall come first, but whether
we shall have any reform at all. =
.'ssWe ARE at present defeated,
thrashed thrown-down peasantry. We
have no longer social problem; it is
now a struggle for life The political
question: is not how to teach the people
to vote right, but how to get their
votes counted when they do vote right.
No impartial man can doubt that Bry-
an was the real choice of the American
people, The industrial question at
present is not how to get the full re-
ward of your labor, but how to get
any kind of a job. Millions are strug-
Cling, not for money, but just to keep
what they haye; not to get home of
their own, but to escape the poor
house and the jail.
"The terrible question now is not
what IA the ff!e best legislation to work
for. but whether Legislative reform is
possible, so long as monopolies exist.
IF we pass a: city law in favor of
the masses it is vetoed by the state;
: If we capture the state we are undone
by congress and the senate, and, tow
ering above all, stand the president
and the omnipotent supreme court.
@eEvery department of the govern
ment is now controlled by Mark Han
ma The man who was only a night
mare q year ago is now horrid fact.
The most infamous labor crusher in
the country is in power. Everything
yields to his whip. He is master of a
rabbit congress, a grounding senate
and a sawdust president. The king
maker and slave-maker has himself
become the government. I do, not de-
nounce him as an individual; be is the
incarnation of monopoly. . I 81

THE MONETARY COMMISSION.

Representative Stone, of Pennsylvania,
who was chairman of..the. committee on
coinage, weights and measures in the last
House, has introduced a bill to authorize
the appointment Of a monetary commits
sion and to provide for it's expenses It
empowers the President to appoint
commission of eleven members, whose
duties will he to investigate what
changes, If any, are necessary and expe.
dent in our present banking and cur
rency laws, and to see what further legis-
lation is desirable in regard to our ua-
tional banking system and the Govern
ment paper currency of notes aud certifi-
Gates. The commission is to meet for or
ganizaton in Washington at such time
as the President may appoint, and must
report to him for transmission to Con-
gIess not later than November 10, 1897.
1t may take testimony and listen TO argu-
NETS at the discretion of it's members,
and shall require and receive informa ion
from any department or officer Of the
government or any matter within its
special jurisdiction and coming within
the scope of its investigation. One hun.
dred thousand dollars are appropriated
for the expenses of the commission, and
the bill is understood to have the APP
proval of the administration. 1t will
probably be- passed by the House in re-
Spouse to the special message of the Pres.
ident, which he will send to Congress as
soon as the tariff bill is disposed of.

THE NORTH POLE STORY.

The reported capture OF a carrier pigeon
near Tromsoe Island, north of Norway,
with an inscription on it's wing indicut-
ing that Prof. Andree, the Swedish ex-
plorer, bad crossed the North Pole,is prob.
ably nothing more than one of those en-
terprising canards which may be expected
in that connection. The foolhardy ex-
plorer is just as likely to be..wandering
among the ice-foes of the far north eager
and anxious to get back to the comforts
of civilization, as to have foated over the
Pole towards the North American CONT
nent 1t is hardly possible that the bird
could have got back as soon, and again it
Is stated that Andree's pigeons do not
wear silver rings on their legs, as was
the case with the one lately caught.
Commodore Melville is, however, not
disposed to discredit the story of the
news from Andree, put does not attach
much Importance to the results likely to
follow such an expedition even If An
dree succeeded in crossing the North
Pole. He is confident that it would not
he possible for Andree to alight at the
pole and then resume his flight, but thinks
the hest he could do would be to cross the
Pole high in the air. His expedition,
however, would solve the question as to
the existence of the open polar sea, which
has been the subject of 50 much contro-
versy between the Arctic explorers, but
beyond being able to report upon that
fact Andree probably would have little
OF value to contribute to the present
store of knowledge of the far north.
In the opinion of Commodore Mely lille,
assuming that the pigeon message is gen.
uine and from Andree, there is grave rea-
son to fear for the safety of the bold aero
naut. If, following the line of the merid-
ian upon which he reported himself, he
landed on the north coast of Alaska, not
too far east of Point Barrow, he probably
would fall in with some Of the whalers
who are still off the coast, or some of
the few natives along the shore. But if
the balloon once crossed the coast range
and landed in the interior there would be
little chance of the explorers reaching
civilization again.

tie them to reduced rates at Q cents a
mile. The advantages of this offer must
be apparent to all, and there is every rea.
son to believe that many young men will
avail themselves of the opportunity to
mensurate with their financial ability.
The matricul aticns of William and Mary
College ought to be largely .increased

as the college is one of the best in the
State, there is everything to gain by

THE TARIFF ROBBERS.
How the Sugar Trust Will Benefit Under
the New Law

How the Sugar Trust Will Benefit Under
the New Law.
New York World: Four noted tariff
sharps have been studying the confer
ence committees sugar schedule ID find
out precisely how much of the people s
money it authorizes the sugar trust TO
take with the high hand. No two of them
agree.
Mr.. Dingley, who framed the original
House bill, estimates the "differential"
bounty to the sugar trust at 10 1.2 cents
hundred pounds, or one. eighth of cent
pound.
Senator Jones estimates 1t on the basis
of .04 sugar, the most important grade,
other grades higher, or about one-half u
cent . pound, which is about four times
Mr.. Dingley's estimate.
Byron w. Hot, secretary of the reform
clubs committee, estimates it at about
one-ffth OF. IA cent a pound as m average
of all grades.
The Treasury experts estimate it Mt
1871 cents hundred pounds. or consider
ably more than one seventh of cent a
pound.
The bill is blind and misleading-so

scope tests, Dutch STANDARDS and COM

But certain acts connected with it are

Is that the whole of the "diFerehtial't-
whatever it may amount to-is IL rob.
berry.
Searles, the knowing secretary of the
sugar trust, has admitted on oath that
the trust can refine sugar cheaper in this
country than is possible to the refiners of
any other country. rhe sugar trust
therefore needs no protection, nodifferen-
tial whatever. With all sugar taxed at
the same rate there would be no impor-
tatlon of the slightest consequence. The
sugar trust would still control the Amer
lean market absolutely.
1t follows that every fraction of a cent
OF differential-and each fraction means
millions of dollars-is simply gift of
that much to the sugar tru"t. 1t means
that the law of the land compels the peo-
pie to pay the sugar trnst one eighth or
one seventh or one-ffth or..one halt accent
pound more for sugar than it is worth
1t means that the sugar trust, and not
the people is protected. 1t means that
in order to reward campaign contributors
millions of the peoples money is taken
from them by law and given to the null
ti-millionaires who constitute the sugar
trust.
How long are the people going to stand
this system of legislation.

NO FEMALE ANGELS.
Rev. Thomas Needham Quotes Texts to
Prove the Point

Prove the Point.
New Brunswick, Pa, July 23.-Scrip-
tural proof OF the strongest kind was ad-
vanced by the Rev. George c. Needham.
the evangelist, in his sermon in the Liv-
ingston Avenue Baptist Church, to sub.
stantiate the theory advanced by his
brother, the Rev. Thomas c. Needham,
that there were no female angels.
This declaration was made by the evan
gelist in n sermon of n week ago and
provoked discussion among the ministers
of Philadelphia, where the evangelist
lived for some years. In part he said: -
"There are 107 references in the Old-
Testament and 100 in the New Testament
to angels, and that is proof of it's impor-
lance as subject.
elm referring to some of the criticisms
without specifying the critics the most of
the views printed are based on art and
tradition, and we must turn to the word
of God If we want to get the true idea of
what angels are like. There we find we
must give up all the pretty ideas
of sentiment and tradition.
"a There is no sex among the angels so
far as the Bible shows. In every place
that it is mentioned that an angel ap.
peared it is always in the form of a man,
and as II young man, and yet the artists
have always given them the form of n
female, with beautiful faces and flowing
hair, which is contrary to Scripture.
lone critic says that female angel
was sent to Mary, the mother of Jesus, to
announce her coming mother hood he
cause of the delicacy of the mission. This
is not so. The angel is distinctly men.
toned as the Angel Gabriel, and the per.
sonal pronoun he is used in several places.
"Let me say that the church of God
has suffered in members by the non-re
cognition of angels, because they. are real
and the people of God should be aughs
to trust in tie protecting care which they
exercise.
''The angels mission is on this earth
They have access TO heaven but they are
busy on earth. There are evil spirits nj.
ways trying to get possession of the
human body, and the angels are fighting
to counteract the evil influences. l be.
lieye that we are constantly under the
care OF the angels, who keep us and
guard us, and whenever our mission is
done on earth angels bear our spirits to
heaven"
The evangelist is n pleasant faced man
of 30, and looks like the late James g.
Blaine.
