A Word to the Farmer..

tCOntinued from last week.
Ed Representative: There is a great
er curse staring the farmers in the face
than even trusts and combines, and that
Is gambling or selling wind wheat. mis-
called option. There is more wind
wheat sold in the centers of trade and
commerce in one week that there ia
raised in the world in one year. by peo-
pc who could not tell the difference be-
tween wheat and barley, or oats and
chan, and who never saw q field of
wheat unless through . palace car win
dow. and yet those imps possessed of the
spirit that entered the swine bring more
heartaches to the toiling masses than
war or rebellion.
Yet they hold their heads aloft and
proclaim themselves to be beneflciaries
OF the human family, while they are
more destructive to the farmer than the
plague OF grasshoppers and chinx bug
combined Congress has the last Is or
20 years been passing bills against them
but they appear to grow fat on such
congressional diet, -.-..-..- 49,

OUR ,FORUn

No Gold Mona ch >for' American Pa
Is It not possible to awaken the max
ers. the wealth producers, the pieb-
ians. from their sleep Of death. The
tools of gold owners in our legislative
halls and on our benches at court, are
forcing upon us oppression beyond en-
.durance The ship subsidy bill and the
Porto Rico bill are but straws in COM
parison with the new finance bill. BY
the provisions of that bill, there is not
one dollar of legal tender money in
this country, except it be stamped on
ESQ grains of private gold, which does
not add to it's value as money, but
simply demands that every laborer,
every producer, every business and
every debtor, pay for the gold any price
the gold owner may put on that 1913
grains of gold. AS in 1865, he may de-
mand any price for gold. 50
Secretly hidden In the folds of the
only legal dollar the people may have
as . medium of exchange for IL billion
dollars worth Of wealth produced an
nually in this country In the name of
God and justice, and right, il every
poor laborer and producer has got to
buy gold bullion with every dollar of
legal money he can get, the gold fixing
it's own price beyond the exchange price
OF q dollar, should not the plebians
arise to the occasion and demand that
every exchange dollar be equal to the
demands of private gold? No monarch
ever existed that had the power that is
given to gold with our money stamp
placed upon 1t, with every other dollar
robbed OF its money function or debt
paying power. There is not time to
change presidents before this burden is
removed. 1t is sale of all property,
liberty and life to the gold of plutocrats,
and l am not ready to sign the con-
tract. But I am ready to sign pro-
test against such legalized crime, and
back it up by carrying a musket in the
front ranks of the plebian army, if
necessary. S. NJ FAIRCHILD.

DIES FROM EXPOSURE.
The authorities have decided that Miss
Thetford died from congestion Of the
lungs, brough on probably by lack of
attention and exposure in the hut.
Hates wife was taken from a sick
bed In this same hut, where she had lain
for six weeks without care or medical
attention, and put in the infirmary last
spring where she died
Hates said the girl must have lived
in fine style before she came to him, as
she had the finest clothing he ever saw.
He said the girl claimed her name was
Hattie SudhOff, and that she lived some
where among the rich folks In Chicago
This, he said, was all that he knew
about her.
Dr." Waite, when questioned about
his introduction to the girl, said she
came to his Office and wanted to 90 to
some place to live. the more degraded
and poverty-stricken the better
He knew of Hates and the sort of life
he lived, and knowing that he was in
want OF companion, he took the girl
there and left her. That was the last
he heard of her until appraised OF her
death.

The Facts i'm the Case.

Ed Representative: Eric Olson has a
long letter in the Fergus Globe, which
is copied in the National Republican,
wherein he calls me Donneliys candi-
date. referring to the campaign Of 1898
Now, Eric has right to his own
views, and being a wise man, changes
his mind occasionally. But as he al
ways admits that I have sacrificed as
upbuilding Of the Peoples party, he
ought to use me fair when commenting
upon my frailities behind my back.
The facts In the case, as everyone
knows. are, that l was no more Don
nelly's candidate than Eric's candidate.
The leader of the boiling convention
which nominated me. was Dr.. C. John
son. and Eric was his right hand bow
er. Both of these worthless forsook me
and went over to Lind. while Donnelly
stood true. They excuse their treach-
cry by saying that they did not know
that John Lind would accept!
When. as a matter of fact, DIR. C.
Johnson said in his speech ON present.
ing my name to the convention, that
John Lind would run as a soldier, and
the Populists must nominate an old
soldier-and Long was the man. It
has been claimed by some that I was
used as a stool pigeon for the Republi-
dot hot
machine put up the money to get my
name on the official ballot. If such was
the case it was the biggest mistake the
Republicans ever made. Every poll
tician must know now that my name
being on the ticket made John Lind
governor.
The fact that the Populists, who made
the Peoples party, would not accept
John Lind, and the further fact that
he proclaimed to the world that he was
not Populist, secured him enough
votes among the Republicans to elect
him. The Democrats. during their pill
grimage of 10 years in the wilderness,
were learning tricks for sure.
Eric, in his letter, says that he fayors
John Lind for governor, and Kittel
Halvorson for lieutenant governor in
1900. How would it do to add Eric for
attorney general and DR.. Johnson for
secretary of state; Wessenberg for
treasurer, and for some minor Offices
ind an Irfshman and an American to
tail them up? When I think ct how
Erie came to my home and obtained my
proxy, and went to Cincinnati to help
nominate Barker and Donnelly, and
now goes for Donnelly and his candi-
date. Long. I cannot help but smile 4

Some Experiments in Comforts.
BY Myrtle
I recently found my stock of comforts
growing low and was anxious to re-
plenish them. had just furnished two
additional rooms, and as the furniture
was new and dainty, l wanted my bed
ding to correspond, SO l determined to
give the matter little study and see
il l could not devise something which
should be little out OF the Ordinary
and prove a real help in making my
rooms attractive.
One of the rooms that had furnished
was for the daughter of the family who
was just growing upfto young woman
hood, and who liked especially having a
room Of her very, own The room
was furnished in blue and white, and
SO I determined that the comfort for
this room should be of the prevailing
colors. .s.a q,
A friend described a comfort that
she had just made. and this is the way I
followed her descriptions:
bought half the cloth delicate blue
and left the other half white. Then
from each of the colors 4 cut blocks five
inches square. Each block was folded
diagonally and sewed along one of the
open edges. Then each one was stuffed
with cotton full enough to make it puff
out well, and the remaining open side
run together. AS you will see, I was
making, wadding and lining the COM
fort as l proceeded, and this was the
novel feature which had appeaed to me-
When I had made enough Of the
blocks l began putting them together
by sewing the diagonal edges Of a blue
and a white block together, thus MAX
ing square. After the squares were
completed they we've Joined together,
and when I had a sufficient number,
behold, my comfort was done.
The work was easy and enjoyable.
The soft goods sewed so readily, and
the comfort grew block by block as
had a few minutes spare time, for
hCpL OH IuS u4dtcTld1S IN COX IN a
convenient place.. This made 1t easy
to work for short time, even, as there
was no time wasted in getting the work
or sewing materials together, and it
also served to keep the dainty colors
fresh and clean. Il even kept white
apron in the same box to slip on while
at work.
When the blocks were all put to-
gether the comfort looked as II it had
been stuffed with down and then Quilted.
For each block formed a pun.
1t was quite pretty enough to leave
just as it was, but l determined to give
1t the incest finish possible and delight
the occupant Of the blue and white
room. So I added a feather stitching
OF Asiatic Roman floss, of a shade OF
blue to match the blocks, along each
seam and around the edge.
I can assure you that when it was
done 1 was as delighted as was the
aforesaid owner of the room, for it GER
tainly was beauty.

But while for all the rest he pardon

He told her this offense was very grave,
And that to do fit penance she must 60

And gathering the largest, ripest one,

She must come back another day
TO tell him his commands she did obey.
The woman, thinking this was penance

Feeling right glad she had escaped SO

Next day but one she went the priest to
