Breaks in the Levee Causes Slight Fall

MEMPHIS, March 24.-Another fall Of
~one-tenth of foot in the river at

drop in the high water here is not con-

thought, by the giving way of the
levee above Memphis.

1.-The Peoples party vote for governor
in Minnesota rose from 80, Se2 votes in 1892
to $3.50 in 1894, when our party stood as
the second party in numerical strength at
the polls in the state. John Lind who
ceved 162,251 votes for governor last fall,
was nominated at the Peoples party con-
vention on a Peoples party platform, and
the platforms Of other political bodies
which supported him likewise embodied
Peoples party principles. In view Of such
circumstances, H. does not behoove the
Peoples party of Minnesota to pose as the
aid annex or subordinate Of any other poll
teal body. The Peoples party is the stand
ard bearer of positive and progressive prin-
ciples of reform in American politics. 1t is
the one party which is neither negative
nor obstructive nor imitator in the bat
tie Of political reform. 1t ia the torch
bearer or reform IN THESE closing Gays OF
the century and the hope Of the farmer
and workinen an and the great middle
classes Of our land in every occupation.
THE exposual of large portion of our
principles by nearly seven million people
during the past campaign has so pop
ulariZed teachings that the pressing
need of the present hour is not so much
education as organization. The great es-
sential is to mobilize forces into an
aggressive and successful army at the
polls. We therefore call upon all who
believe In our principles and cause to
: rally to the support of the Peoples party
and press to the front our organization
in country. city and congressional dis
| differences of policy should be relegated
to the rear, or left to the conventions Gre
ated to handle them. The discussion of
! campaign methods of this time is not only
useless but serves to distract attention
| from the real causes for which we stand,
and retard organization of our forces.
Let loyalty to the party principles and
organzation-state and natiOnal-be the
watchword. Let such loyalty distinguish
Popuist voters everywhere, and let 1t be
expressed by activity in the work Of or
ganization. In a short time We will send
blanks to the chairman of the various
county and congressional districts, for the
report Of their organizations to Chair

The Minnesota Populists, according to

ready for the most aggressive campaign of

they have been content to agitate; they
now propose to devote their time to organ

state central committee in St Paul Secre-
tary E. r. Lynch introduced a resolution
calling upon the district county and pre-
c1nct committees to take UP the work of
organization at once. The state central
committee unanimously adopted Secretary
Lynch'S resolution, and he issues an
address to the committees, notifying them
OF the action of the state central COM
mfttee and calling upon them to report
The action of the Tammany democracy
In New York, and of the Ohio Democrats
more recently. in ignoring the Populists
and attempting to swallow their organiza-
tions, have given strong impetus to Popu-
list organization in this state. More re-
Gently the alleged threats Of certain local
Democrats in the same direction have
aroused Peoples Party men to the con-
viction that organization should be imme-
diate and thorough. Populist clubs and
committees, lyceums and working delega-
tons are to be the order of the day in
minnesota, according to prospect, during
Che next twelve months.
