THE PEOPLES PARTY The HOPE.

There has never been a time in the
history of our reform movement when
a firm adhesion to its principles was
more important. There has never
been a time when Populists should be
more pronounced in devotion to their
party organization. In maintaining
this position heroicaljy it is not Popu-
listic or patriotic to allow party big
otry to dictate course destructive
of popular rights. 70 be wise citi-
zen, having the deepest interest in the
enfol cement OF popular sovereignty,
the first question to be solved is:
"How can best safeguard my home
and my country from the encroach-
ments of imperialism"
The men who are plotting to change
our national character from "a gov
ernment of the people, by the people
and for the people, into an empire by
the money oligarchy for the oligar-
chy, the trusts and monopolies, have
municipalities or party. They are not
Republicans nor are they Democrats
Of the type of Lincoln or Jackson.
They have none of the spirit of Wash
ington or Jefferson. Men calling
themselves Republicans are in power
by bribery and corruption. They de-
spise true Republican principles. But
for the Peoples Party they would have
no effective opponents today.
In the Democratic party is strong
real Jetfersonian aud Jacksonian
force led by W. ]. Bryan. In oppos-
ition there is an aggressive faction of
imperialists, aristocrats and traitors
of the Grover Cleveland stripe. If
they are unable to control the Bryan
majority in the convention they will
vote with the imperialists who have
got possession of the Republican par
ty. If the patriotic Democrats and
Populists do not cooperate for the
general good, as predicted by Abra-
ham Lincoln, the imperialist ticket
will be elected and all of liberty in
the United States will be lost unless
regained by revolution.
What shall real Populists do?
They must not sacrifice their party.
If possible it must be more strongly
welded together. This done it can
safely cooperate for the defeat Of i'm
perialism and for the protection of the
masses from the grasp of the money
power. To prevent this money is free
ly used. Industrious scoundrels who
call themselves Populists are denounc-
ing fusion. If we were in the trenches
with an heroic band of home defenders
against a large superior force, ami a
party OF robber haters, not exactly in
accord with our own notions, should
offer their assistance it would be ac-
cepted with thanks. When the fight
was over and the victory won each or
ganization could occupy it's own
ground without being compromised by
the friendly cooperation.
The peril that threatens the Ameri-
can masses demands sacrifice of in
dividual opinion and ease. There
may arise such conditions as call for
a cooperation of Populists and other
reformatory bodies. II they do we
shall be ready to sacrifice all prejudice
for the general good. This is good
It will harmonic with
the farewell address of the father of
his country. 1t will be an echo of

Congressman Shackleford has intro
duced a bill to place wood pulp and
printing paper upon the free list, the
object being to break up the trust.
All the newspapers in the land being

against it. Not because a tax on, pa

ONE CASE IN MANY.

The people at the depot Saturday night
we're surprised when the west bound train,
which was 10 minutes late. unloaded dead
man, and still more so when they found
they knew him. Andrew Myhre, who lived
in the edge Of Chippewa county. and Ed i.
Anderson, a neer- r-do-well, who lives on this
side, we're drinking more or less during the
day and in the evening wandered out into
the night. About o'clock son of liver
Iverson informed Night Watchman Olsen
that he had heard cries OF distress down by
the round house and otto and several 9TH
ers went down with lanterns and found An
derson asleep on the ground down by the
yard limits and brought him back to town
Had he remained an hour longer he would
have been corpse. Later learning that
Myhre had been with him. they begun hunt
ing for him and one party was still out when
the train came In with his body. In his
stupid condition he had walked all the way
to DeGratf and entered the depot. where he
dumped himself on the agents couch, from
which he was reused and told to 70 to u
hotel when the depot was closed. He said
that he was coming back to Benson. but in.
stead continued his journey east until he
met the train about q mile and half east
of there. and when the engineer saw him,
was distant only few rods and running to-
wards the headlight. He supposed he
would step aside. but when he taw he was
not going to applied the airbrake. which
was OF course too late, and the pilot struck

A few weeks ago, in a controversy
with the WILLMAR TRIBUNE the Ben

splication: of moral principle. in re-
fusing to grant saloon licenses and
then fighting blind-pigs. We presume
that it's editor is equally unable to
feel any twinges of conscience for hav-

come drunk, and hence would have
known enough to get out 81 the way
of a train. As it is, his blood is
upon the hands of those who gave the
legal permission to sell alcoholic poi
son in Benson. Had he become drunk
in a blind-pig, his blood would have
been upon the hands of the outlaw who
sold the stuff in the first place and
upon the officers who allowed the
"pig" to run in the second place. Can
you escape the application, Editor Fo-
