Willmar tribune., 1900-05-09

Agreeable to its promise last wee k
the TRIBUNE gives its readers this
week the speech delivered by Ex-Gov.
Altgeld before the Albany Bi-metallic
Club. The political events to transpire
during the present year will make his
tory. The campaign of 1900 promises
to become one of the most important
ever fought in the history of the ma
tiop. The people will be called upon
by their votes this year to decide the
future of the country. The interest at
this time centers in what the demo-
cratic party will do. If it will remain
true to the new program it announced
in 1896 or whether in it's anxiety to
win it will abandon the issues which
rehabilitated it and gave it new
leadership to become merely party
of opportunists to profit by the mis-
takes of the opposition. No individ-
ual can speak for a political party but
parties are made up Of individuals
and individual minds shape it's poll
cies. If there is any individual who
is qualified to speak for the new de-
mocracy it is Gov. Altgeld. His
speech will therefore be read with in
terest by men of all parties. We COM
mend it to the notice Of our readers.

We are in receipt Of card bearing
the likeness and superscription of
Hugh Thompson, East Grand Forks,
Minn.. Republican Candidate for
Railroad and arehouse Commission
er. Accompanying this card is letter
asking us to use our influence to help
him secure the republican nominal
AS he already advertises himself as
the republican candidate we fail to see
why he should call for help in that di-
rection. But we presume he means
that he is candidate for the repub-
lican nomination. We hate to disap-
point the child-like confidence Thomp-
son reposes in us, but we can't do
anything for him for several reasons.
In the first place, our influence with
the republicans is not as great as it
might have been if we had smothered
our convictions and used our best en-
deavors to bolster up the cause of vi
cious class legislation, trusts, con-
quest, hunkeyism to England, etc. In
the second place, Mr.. Thompson has
been so successful in hiding his light
under a bushel that we know absolute
ly nothing about him. Some repub-
lican Aladdin has rubbed his magic
lamp and like the genii of old Hugh
Thompson has sprung from the limbo
of the unknown, ready to assume one
of the most important positions in the
state government. Thirdly, we have
at present a man from the Seventh dis
trict filing the position of railroad
and warehouse commissioner to the
satisfaction of all except republican
politicians, terminal elevator kings,
and railroad lords. Mr. Ringdal is
eminently fitted for his position. He
has cool, judicial mind, rock-ribbed
honesty, and has made an exhaustive
study of the problems connected with
his duties. The people of the state,
irrespective of party. can do no better
than to re-elect P. M. Ringdal. We
are therefore reluctantly compelled to
turn a deaf ear to Mr.. Hugh Thomp-
sons heartrending appeal for our aid.

Sioux Falls, May 7, 1900.
The metropolis of South Dakota,
situated in the valley of the Sioux

The streets are gai1y decorated with

rapidly filling up with strangers who
are coming to attend the great pow

people. It looks for all the world
like the main tent of the Ringline
show. Floor has been laid in the
central portion which will be reserved
for the delegates. Tomorrow is ex-
pected to be a very interesting day.
A great many delegates will arrive in
the morning and throughout the day.
The Peter Cooper Populist club o1
Omaha is expected on special train
in the morning. That club gives a
great "dollar" banquet at Omaha
this evening at which the principa Al
spe aker will be w. J. Bryan. A
great many delegates enroute for
Sioux Falls from the East and South
are attending this banquet.
I had chat with Senator Pettigrew
this evening. AS I was the first Min.

terested to know how the Minnesota
delegation feels about Towne's candi.
dacy. The Senator is an enthusiastic
Towne supporter, and believes that
the convention should nominate him
for vice president outright.
The only argument which can be
used against the nomination of Towne
is the geographical one. 1t is con-
tended that it would weaken the ticket
to select two men from adjoining
states to comprise the ticket. A
southern man would be the logical Sc
lection in this respect. It is probably

It makes the Tribune editor vince to
have the populists of the county made
acquainted with the fact that the Trib-
uue has deliberately led them into the
democratic camp.-Willmar Argus.
There isn't A. populist paper in the
state, except Boen's Globe, that isn't
doing just that thing-trying to hand
the party over to the Democrats.
Alexandria Post News.
1t makes the TRIBUNE editor laugh
to see the Argus man entertaining the
delusiOn that he can actually make
anybody "wince'' on account of his
ridiculous little squibs. AS to the
charge that we have led the populists
into the democratic camp, we will
make this statement: The TRIBUNE
was not founded to support any PARTY
but to advocate certain PRINCIPLES.
AS the peoples party was at that time
the only party advocating those prin-
ciples we naturally supported that
party. When the reform forces inside
the democratic party overthrow the

favor of some of the most important
OF our principles we recognized that it
would be utter folly for two parties
lighting for the same cause to antag-
onize each other, and we therefore ad-
vocated cooperation between the peo-
ple's party and the Bryan democracy.
Today there are many new questions
of vital Importance on which the peo-
pies party and the new democracy
agree, and it would be criminal folly
for either of those parties to refuse to
cooperate. The only ones opposed
to such cooperation are the republic
ans. They understand that sngly
they CAN easily beat us, but that
bound together by a common purpose,
not by merely party name, we will
be dangerous to the forces of the
trusts. The people know this, and are
not moved by CROCODILE. tears shed by
republican editors over the peoples

gentlemen. If you have anything to
say against the principles of the re-
form parties, say it. If not, you had

entirely too early to be able to fore
tell what action the convention will
take, but among the vanguard the
feeling is distinctively against the

if this choice should be Towne it is
morally certain that the Lincoln re-
