Paris, Aug. 10.-The strength of the anti-Zola prejudice prevailing here was again illustrated to-day. When the appeal of M.

Zola was not represent ed and permitted the case to go by de- fault. The court then took the unusual step of raising the damages imposed upon Nm.

GOLD BUGS REsuM1NG CoNrHO1 !.

To the Editor of The Minneapolis Journal:
Inc Democrats of this city were astound-
cd this morning by the announcement OF
the appointment of F. G. Winston and Il.
r. Nelson as the head men on the Demo-
cratic campaign committee Neither one
OF these men, as I understand it. voted the
Democratic ticket two years ago. Indeed, |
am Informed that Professor Moore who
appointed this committee, did not vote lne
Democratic ticket In 1895.
Professor Moore was instructed tn consult
with the candidates in the selection of this
committee. The question that now arises is,
VINO has thus betrayed the Democratic
party of this county. Professor Moore or the
candidates.
There is but one or two things for Messrs.
winston and Nelson to do, either acknovi-
eoge their error of two years ago or get
on this committee. If they are bic
men they will do one Or the other.
DEMOCRAT
They are not likely to do either.
They have simply reassumed their an
clent leadership. The Democratic ma
tional convention in 1900 is very likely
to cover up the silver issue in a mass of
meaningless words, and nominate F1tz
Hugh Lee for president on an anti-ex-
pansion platform. The national De-
mocracy never had chance to commit
blunder that they did not do it.

REAL REIGN OF TERROR

The student of history and the OBJ
server of events can see the same pro-
cess going on in America that at the end
of the last century had placed all
wealth in France into the hands of the
nobility and the church. The state was
but the servile instrument of their will.
Civilization in the higher society was
symbOlized in the crime-stained dun
geOns of the Bastile, while the common
people had passed into a state of serf-
dom. But the end was rapidly ap-
preaching. Oppression through long
centuries had turned men into demons.
and their rage found expression in the
revolution which swept away thous-
and years of accumulated wrongs in one
swift tidal wavedof blood. The world

THE RESULT.

When the fusion crowd is laid upon the
Shelf to dry, they will feel better towards
the readers. They know the readers are in
the right, and they are right now kicking
themselves for not having had the sand to
stand up and bravely make a fight for the
integrity of the party. Self respect is worth
something and if we do suffer in business
way We do maintain our self respect,-Fari-
bault Jeffersonian.
The battle will be over in about sixty
days, and the fusionists will be the most
whipped crowd that ever put up a
ticket in the United States They will
have tried to destroy noble party, and
will have nothing to show for it. I'D.

Work! Work! at a remunerative wage,
is the prayer from millions of hearts.
This is the live and burning issue of the
hour. National building and operating
of railroads will supply this want.
There are great minds in all parties,
standing ready to champion so great an
issue. The government necessities re-
quire it. The industries of the nation
demand it. Producers and merchantmen
need it. Toilers and reformers shout
for it. The impending menace of an i'm
perialism through the continual agrees
sions of this monster monopoly alarms

ositiOn. The times are ripe thrust in the

ard bearer. Let us not as coxcomb men
be led away by the freak of fashion, the
latest cut, the latest sage. Men like the
principles they advocate, by long asso-
clatlOn become part of them. Those
only who can discern great principles
and whose souls are aflame with an ar
dent Interchangeable devotion are really
great, and can be safely trusted with
great and high purposes. Not a polite
ian. Yea, not even some statesmen. But
one inspired with the holy zeal of mas
ter. One whom the antagonism of the
world renders as granite, even when
stabbed by base ingratitude, more
strong than traitors arms Back, retir-
ing upon the mighty purposes of his
soul, finds consolation in the purity and
greatness of his motives, and though
torn and bruised by the rude taunts
and jibes Of an unappreciative world,
dares to hope and battle on. Some such
men there are in the ranks of Populism.
One such stands foremost in the fore
ground of these momentous times. who
for more than quarter of century with
knightly daring and courage in a thou
sand fights for liberty has thrown the
gauntlet to her mightiest foe. Whose
peerless lance has pierced the visor of
cunning, fraud and high villainy, laying
bare the grinning jaws of traitors high
and low. Such has been the career of
this intellectual Caesar. Such has been
the history Of his untiring devotion to
the cause. Can we do better than choose
him as our leader. Can we do less than
honor such high qualities by making
him our commander-in-chief in the
great battle of 1900? All hail to the
