SILVER DROPPED IN IOWA.
CALLS INDICATE FUSION

CALLS INDICATE FUSION.
The calls for the Iowa Democratic and
Populist state conventions offer material
for commentaries on William J. Stones
declaration against fusion; also on rabid
free silver talk concerning restriction of
the Democratic brand to out and out Is to
l shouters. The calls for these conventions
to meet in Des Moines Aug. 16 clearly in
dictate a fusion program. The Democratic
call throws open the door of the Democratic
fold to Populistsi Silver Republicans, Gold
Democrats, who may wish to reunite with
their old party and everybody who wants
to express belief in an exceedingly compre-
hensive set OF principles. The call says:
"All voters who believe in the principles
advocated by the Democratic party. and
who are in favor of, economical and
constitutional government, are cordially in
vited to participate in the selection of dele
gates to the state convention.
The Populist call is almost as broad an
cago platform or silver, but does say much
about imperialism, the declaration of in
dependence and the Chicago

That is the natural result. The
Omaha platform is being ignored

WHAT wlLI THE POPS DO.


Here comes hint of an alleged plan on
the part of Silver Republicans and Populists
to bind the Dednocfatic party to renomina-
ton OF Bryan and t. reaffirmation of belief
in free coinage Of Silver at the God given
ratio Of Is to III The Populists and Silver
Republicans. it is related will hold their
national conventions next year, renominate
Bryan, adopt Is to / free silver platforms
and then pass the situation up to their
Democratic allies Of 1896. BY this action
the plans sponsors say the desire of many
Democratic leaders to get away from Bryan
and 16 to will be checkmated and Demo-
cratic divergence from Populist and Silver
Republican desires will be at the risk Of
losing 1000, 900 votes-more or less.
Silver Republicans have not yet shown
the suspicion such action would indicate.
The Populists are committed already to an
early convention. Their national committee
meeting in Omaha last year bound Chair
man Butler to call the national convention
of 1900 at least 30 days before either Of the
old party conventions. This agreement was
forced by "mfddle-of- the-roadera;''. men
who oppose alliance with Democrats and

Mr.. Fred ElWell.

Mr.. Fred Elwell, son of Mr. James Ell
we'll, of Zumbrota, Mimi, died Tuesday
July Is. Mr.. Elwell was we'll and ia
vorably known throughout Southern
Minnesota as vigorous and straight
forward business man, and as a man of
sturdy character. He was at one time a
prominent factor in the politics Of
Goodhue county, and he was an earnest
advocate of the peoples rights. He
was from early manhood untiring in his
efforts to establish right principles in
all civic affairs. Hi sterling integrity,
answering loyalty to principle and
generous Impulses won for him many
friends and admirers. Strong intellectu-
ally, ready speaker and writer, had he
been spared to the world mans allotted
time, he would have been a potent fac
tor in the working out of some of the
great social problems which now con-
front the best minds of this country.
Mr.. Elwell will be remembered through
out Northwest by many who have had
business relations with him, as being a
man of progressive views and enterpris-
ing characteristics. He did much to
promote stock raising and diversified
farming in the section of the state in
which he lived, and his spoken and
written reports on these subjects were
valuable and attracted much atten-
ton
Mr.. Elwell was 80 years old. In 1891
he was married to Miss Carrie Blanch-
ard, daughter Of Henry Blanchard, OF
Zumbrota, who survives him.

MORE DOPE.

Some months ago the daily papers of
the Twin Cities made a tremendous
outcry against the Mcintyre -four trust.
A trust formed to control the food of
the nation would bring calamity from
which the Northwest would never re-
cover. Such a trust was more to be
dreaded than dose of Populism.
When Mckinley prosperity seemed
about to make a landing in Minneapolis
these organs were seized with violent
attack OF the jim-jams, but Mcintyre
landed just the same. Hereafter the
hungry will remain hungry or pay trust
prices for -four. The noise of the news
papers has suddenly ceased, and
thoughtful people are wondering wheth-
er the trust has cut off their. food sup
ply, their wind supply, or given them
some dope.
We are inclined to think it dope.

THE GREAT AGNOSTIC.
81. Inpersoll once said:

l was not fit to be a soldier: I never saw
our men fire, but l thought of the widows
and orphans they would make, and wished
they would miss.
In this characteristic utterance we
catch a glimpse of the big heart of the
great agnostic.
From the view point of the Christian
world the life and life work of Ingersoll
will now take it's place in history beside
the lives of Humboldt, Voltaire and
Tom Paine.
It will not be denied that Ingersoll
has left his imprint indelibly fixed upon
the religious sentiment Of the English
speaking world Voltaire did that Tom
Paine did no less, and Ingersoll, with
sarcasm, oratory, eloquence and purity
and elegance of diction approached by
neither, has placed a mark down the
coming centuries.
When future biographers and histori-
ans shall collect the memorable utter
ances of the worlds most gifted tenn
perance writer's and orators, Ingersolls
temperance will shine the most brill
ian gem in the collection.
When mOralists shall search the lit
erature Of the past for guidance for the
future, the teachings Of Ingersoll upon
the relations between husband and wife,
parent and child, and the relations of
man to man, will measure an epoch in
the moral evolution Of the race. In his
private life, in his family relations, in
his, dealings with his fellows, charity
sympathy, benevolence and unselfish-
ness have characterized the man. While
others preached the golden rule, Inger-
soil has lived it; he has exemplified his
teachings and his belief in works rather
than in faitn, and while minds may diff
fer as to the good or evil Of his life
work as a whole, that work will always
stand monument to Nineteenth cen
| fury events. E. A. T.

THE PROCESS OF DIGESTION.

Already that gang who ruined the Peo
pies party in this state are at work pre-
pairing the public mind to expect fusion in
1900. The questions of the World and reply
of Dobbyn is one of the feelers thrown
out to touch the public pulse. Being re-
sponsible for the disintegration of the party
in the state, and realizing that it has no
respectable standing whatever, not even
with the governor, who has repudiated it,
although occupying his present position in
part by virtue of their votes, the committee
needs to make it appear that there is
semblance of party left in Minnesota. 1t
is true there are few thousand. but they
are not fusionists. Those who voted the
Democratic ticket last year and are willing
to vote it again this year are simply Demo-
Gratis and nothing more. The public press
in both parties regard them as an integral
part of the Democratic party.-Jeffersonian
In 1898 the fusionists of Minnesota
were between the teeth of Democracy
being masticated, and when they occa-
sionally stuck their heads out between
the lips, they thought their squirming
established their existence as a separate
party.
In 1899 they have descended into the
darkness of the lower intestines, and
are now merely nameless, half-digested
fragments, with salaries attached.
In 1900 they will descend still far
ther, and where they will come out we
forbear to say.
But German, Dave Hill and Grover
Cleveland will preside over their re-
birth of freedom.
A noble ending for men who swore
they supported the Omaha platform of
1892!

GOOD FOR MARION BUTLER.

list committee of the Populist party, has
written to z. H. Austin, assistant state
insurance commissioner and chairman Of
the POpulist committee on state organiza-
ton, declaring that the Omaha agreement
must be adhered to. That agreement
pledged Butler and his following in favor Of
an early convention in 1900. Mr.. Austin
had previously written Senator Butler pro-
testing against early action.-Exchange.
Pray God Mario 7, Butler stands up to
the rack-fodder OF no fodder.

MORE GOSSIP.
The Minneapolis Tribune Of the 6tl
inst says:


The Minneapolis Tribune Of the 9Th
inst. says:
National Chairman Marion Butler Of the
Populist party, has recently written to z.
II. Austin, secretary of the state committee
a letter in which he says that he believes
the party should keep faith with the mid
readers as per the agreement Of last year.
when. at the Omaha meeting, it was agreed
that the national convention of the party
should be held at least one month in ad-
vance OF either of the conventions of the
old parties.
In this letter to Mr.. Austin the national
chairman states that he believes it would
be bad policy to attempt to go back on
that agreement, inasmuch as it would be
just what would best please Ignatius DON
nelly and Wharton Barker, and would allow
the latter to lead bolt OF much larger
proportions than the merit Of their case
warrants.
This letter is almost contrary to others
which Chairman Butler is said to have
written to other Minnesotans some time
ago. In former letters Mr.. Butler is re-
ported to have plainly shown a disposition
to evade the Omaha agreement, and. by
double dealing. keep the letter of the bar
gain while violating the spirit. At that
time Mr.. Butler favored calling the national
convention for the date pronised-one month
ahead-but to force an adjournment -"
the date of the Democratic convention,
when practical fusion could be accomplished
and nominations made in accordance with
the Democratic program.
The question which now presents itself
for consideration is whether or not Mr..
Butler is perfectly sincere in his latest
declaration shown in the letter to Mr..
Austin, or is he merely playing possum.'
with the intention OF finally yielding to
pressure from party workers rightly ap
piled? He could pursue the latter course
easily and thus afford himself an excuse
which would at least appear to justify him
self in the eyes of the party, which, as
rule, is not inclined to pay much attention
to the wishes of the midroaders.
Mr.. Austin is very frank in saying that
the Populists of the West and Northwest
will not stand for the early convention
agreement, and that they will not abide by
any scheme for two conventions. Mr.. Aus
tin declares that the only thing which
will satisfy the Populists of the Northwest
is complete fusion with the Democrats
in case the latter nominate w. J. Bryan.
Unless the Nebraska man is chosen as the
leader there will be no fusion.
Don't fret your gizzards, gentlemen.
You may wiggle and twist and plot
and scheme but there will be straight
