committee on resolutions and other Inn
portant committees and we would i'm
mediately find ourselves resoluted into
the Democratic party.
Messrs. Lynch and Stacy would at
once be named by Mr.. Owen as a COM
mittee to confer with Democrats and Re-
publicans for an honorable co-opera-
ton" The entire objects of the con-
vention would be thwarted and a red
hot row quickly precipitated by the cleo
ton of a fusionist to the craftsmanship
of our mid-road delegation.
1t is safe to predict that our state
convention will declare for Independent
Populism, for the Omaha platform, for
direct legislation with proper con-
stitutional safeguards omitted and it is
highly improbable that Mr. Owen would
have SO little discretion and good sense
as to consent to serve as chairman of a
delegation so much at cross purposes
with himself.
The dangers to our party lie in COM
mlttees. and chairmen, in one man
power and in states and lobby work,
aud the state convention already has
house cleaning on it's hands and will
hardly commit the further mistake of
choosing any but Populists for it's cap
tains. e. A. 7.

THE CRIME OF 1898.

On Saturday last our plutocratic sem
ate passed the bond grabbers bill. other
wise known asn the war revenue bill.
For it's infamy 55and hellish purposes
this bill will pass into history fitting
sequel to the national banking act. the
credit Strengthening act, the refunding
act and the demonstration act.
Another great national crime has been
perpetrated against the common. people.
Another link has been forged in the
chain that would fetter the human race.
The bond holding robbers OF nations
have again held us up by the cry OF
war while they picked our pockets with
an issue Of bonds.
Let the people mark well the political
parties, the men responsible for this in
fanny.
Populists throughout the nation stand
opposed to bonds. Populist senator's in
troduced two amendments to this bond
bill. One amendment called for an is
sue of $400,OOO,OOO full legal tender, Lin
coin greenbacks, to take the place OF
the bond issue.
The other amendment called for the
coinage of the silver bullion now piled
up in the treasury.
Both these Populist amendments were
defeated and the bond bill passed by

CONVENTION INCIDENTS.

The nomination of r. j. Cation for
congress by the Populists of the Fifth
congressional district will give Popu-
lists everywhere universal saiisfac-
ton.
From start to finish it was thorough
ly Populistic affair. Populists con-
trolled their own caucuses, elected Popu-
list delegates, these delegates were ex-
pected TO nominate a Simon pure, I'M
adulterated Populist for congress and
they fully and faithfully executed their
trust.
The mld-road procllyities and straight
independent Populism of the convention
was plainly manifest in many incidents
both before and during it's session. A,
the caucuses Il. X. Lynch was the only
active fusionist who succeeded in being
sent as a delegate to the convention anl
the only delegate whose seat was con
tested.

MIR. Nelson (Minn.) regarded the pro-
posed issue OF greenbacks one of the
most important features of the bill He
declared that of all the loans made during
the Civil war the forced loan covered by
the greenbacks was the most expensive"
That is all bosh
There is not a 1O-year-old child in
Minnesota that does not know that the
greenbacks carried on the war from
1861 to 1865, suppressed the rebellion
and saved the life of the nation. If
there had been no greenbacks there
would be today no United States, and
Minnesota. instead of being a sovereign
state, with Knute to represent it in the
United States, would be satrapy of the
Southern Confederacy; and Knute
would be planting potatoes or trying
justice-or-the-peace- for living.
Forced loan!" Who was it forced
on? The soldiers and all the creditors
of the nation, except the money-lenders,
were mighty glad to get them: and if
the government had not Disseminated
against them by refusing 20 receive
them for duties on imports they would
have remained at par with gold all
through the war, just as those green
backs did which were not discrimin-
ated against.
1t is striking commentary on the
mental subsection of our people, that a
man should represent us in the United
| States senate, who would preach such
! Internal nonsense; and that he should
belong to the most liberty-loving race
| in the world.
OF course the proposition to issue
$15O, OOO,O 900 more greenbacks, to carry
/ on the war with Spain, was voted down!
The money-lenders would make nothine
out of them, the people would have theil
use free; therefore-"down with them!'
| Issue bonds bearing gold interest, an(
on them issue bank notes bearing IN
terest also, and then if you ask thu
banks to redeem their notes they vii
| hand you over greenback and then tel
| you that the greenback is not money
but (as Knute says), the most expensive,
issues in the world!!!
And a majority of the people of Min
nesota vote for this nonsense. Id.

OUR CAPTAINS MUST BE POPULISTS.

Just before adjournment of the Hen
nepin county Populist convention on
Tuesday last an adroit attempt was
made to undo the grand work Of the
convention and turn it over in toto to
the fusionists by electing S. M. Owen
chairman of the Hennepin delegation to
the state convention. The attempt was
defeated by a vote Of compliment to
Mr.. Owen and postponement to June Is.
The craftsmanship of convention dele
gates, and of state and national commit
tees is too important to be entrusted to
men not in political sympathy with the
majority behind them.
1t Is well known that a majority of
our national committee and our state
central committee are mid-road Popu-
lists and both organizations have been
nearly disrupted and the party nearly
wiped out by having the fusion chair
men, Butler and Gibbs, at the head OF
those committees.
1t devolves upon the chairman to
name committees and through this
power he may ruin party. If Mr.
Owen should be made chairman of oul
delegation E. r. Lynch and F. N. STAG,

The Ruin 1t Has Proposed.
A few years ago there was a man in
St Taul by the name of Mintzer. He
was shrewd business man and had ac-
cunulated large property, supposed to
be worth half million. The banking
class OF Europe and this country got in
their perfect work of demonetizing sill
ve., and the result was, when Mintzer
died his estate had shrunk to about
S2OC Gee. At his death the property
passed to his widow and the admins
traton of it was placed in the hands
o. st. Paul trust company, which paid
taxes and assessments until their claim
amounted to about $4,000 Mrs. Mint
ger could not repay the trust company,
anu the probate court ordered the prop
erty, to be sold. 1t brought about $780,
Gee. The court refused to confirm the
sale because it believed the property to
be worth much more than that The

The committees appointed on creden-

men of well known Populist principles.
On motion OF fusion delegate cor,-
munication from the Silver Republicans
and Democrats was received and placed
on file.
This communication asked the Popu-
lists to adjourn 70 July II without maxi
ing nomination for congress and en-
trust such nomination to a committee of
five from each of the three so called re-
form parties. A courteous and respect
! full hearing was accorded to the commit
tee OF Democrats and Republicans pre-
senting such communication.
The sentiment of the convention was
almost unanimously in favor of carry
ing out the express purposes tor which
the convention was called and not d half
dozen delegates could be found who
were willing to submit our nomination
to the dictation or censorship Of a
committee a majority Of whom came
from the old parties.
Consequently the communication
! was placed On file and Mr.. Cation nom
mated by acclamatlon.
At the county convention, held in
| minneapolis on Tuesday, mid-road
Populism was still more in evidence and
strong Populist delegation of 1853
vention for June Is.
This delegation will give strong color
ing to the complexion of the state
convention and will place Minnesota in
the front rank for Independent action.
There is now no doubt that the state
convention will put up full state tick
ct. win or lose. without the dictation Or
consent of any other party. AS we go

news, together with the disastrous re-
