PaulsOn's Escape.

county jail last Friday evening
and made into the woods here he
has successfully evaded those In

In hearing how man could make
his escape from a fine new Jail,
built on improved plans like the
one Sheriff Walker presides over.
On Friday evening Walker came
home from a trip in the country
just at supper time. He laid his
fire arms off and went into the
bathroom to take a bath. While
making preparations, supper was
announced and the cells were I'M
locked and the prisoners allowed
to go into the dining room to sup

Walker he came to an outside
door which was open, and rushed
out. Walker WIS on undress

out onto the street toward the
fair grounds, Paulson rapidly

Editor Willmar Tribune:
AS you know 7 have been friendly
to your paper ever since it started.
1t has done much good work for our
cause, although there have been some
editorial utterances with which many
good populists could not agree: but,
recently have found nothing to take
exception to. DR.. johnson for some
reason which l cannot divine has upon
several occasions acted in a manner
quite unfriendly to me. In recent
letter to Mr.. e. r. Lynch he assumes
that our meeting here ON the 10th inst.
is to be what he terms illusion meet
ing" and refuses to contribute cent
to help the meeting out and in his own
language says, 7 don't know single
populist in this county who will con-
tribute one red cent to your Lincoln
Birthday celebration so long as there
is the least faint of fusion about it,
He also says, ''And to now hand us
over again soul, body and breaches
to our ancient enemies as you did in
1896 is more than [ can Or will stand"
This does not sound much like the
written instructions he gave his alter
nate nor the kilograms heEsent to Sem
ators Reishus and S. M. Owen, at the
St. Louis convention, to ""vote for
Bryan and Sewall, first, last and all
the time.' L ask you to publish the
above in your next issue and to say
to your readers that our meeting is to
be a strictly populist meeting where
populist speakers will discuss populist
principles and where we will endeavor
to make it manifest that the peoples
party is still a potent factor to be
considered in the great contest which
is now on in behalf of humanity. We
believe. our blows should be: reserved
for our enemies instead of being dealt
upon the heads of our friends Or vast
ed upon the empty air. This so-called
illusion" is largely q pigment of dis
ordered imaginations. Some popu-
lists believe in making straight popu-
list nominations in all cases. Others
believe in trying to secure honorable
cooperation with our farmer allies
if it can be done without sacrifice of
principle, and thus sweep the repub-
licans out of power in this state. But
if we cannot honorably cooperate we
will then all go together as straight
populists. Let our next state conven-
tion decide and settle the questions as
did the last. No other body has the
authority to act. Let US treat one an
other as mea. Yours Truly.

democratic candidate for. the presi-

with the democrats. The middle-of-
the road populists will never again
support a democratic candidate under
conditions like those Of 1896. IF the
populist party be ever merged into an
other organization it will be into a
