KEEPS the ARGUS GUESSING.

The editorial in last weeks Argus
entitled ''Lawson's People, is an in
teresting and amusing conglomera-
tion of poor guesses and absurd mis-
statements. We wish our space would
permit US to reproduce it in full. 1t
is plainly apparent that it was manu-
factured in order to counteract the
anti-gang feeling in republican ranks
which threatens to clean out gang rule
by voting the peoples ticket. Three
weeks ago the Argus stated that the
TRIBUNE was only shamming in its
advocacy of direct nominations and
that "of course" the plan would not
be adopted, because it would destroy
the power of anyone to dictate nomin-
ations. Now after the plan has been
adopted the Argus finds that it was a
"clever scheme to turn the populists
over to the democrats. The people of
the county know something besides
what they have been told by the Will
mar papers and in most cases are able
to Judge and think for themselves.
They see that the people will have a
chance to nominate any one they
choose upon the peoples ticket and
that they have had three weeks in
which to register protest against the
nomination of any petition filed. They
will form their own conclusions. The
plan needs no further advocacy from
the TRIBUNE but will vindicate itself.
Willmar tribune., 1900-09-19
PEckSNlFFlAN SYMPATHY.

Some of the republican or semi-re-
publican politicians, recognizing their
total inability to defend the McHanna
system of government, are industri-
.ously devoting their % caliber minds
to firing little pellets of jealousy and
distrust into the minds of the popu-
lists. They seem to have been seized
with sudden and strong interest in
the welfare of the Peoples party.
Men who few short years ago de-
nounced us as wild-eyed, long
haired, soldering pops," ''raving
anarchists" ''demagogues,' etc.,
now sidle up to the populists and
heave heartrending sighs' because the
peoples party is dead.
BUT the people will not be fooled by
this simulated interest. They know
there is nothing would make the re-
:publicans rejoice more than they
would do if the peoples party should
actually die. The populists know that
the republican party as personifed iu
Mark Hanna stands for political ideas
Numerically opposed to every prin-
ciple Of the peoples party, while Bry-
an represents some of the most i'm
portant principles they advocate.
The party was not organized to pro-
mote worship of party name but to
work for the success of certain prin-
ciples. It's agitation reused the
masses of the democratic party and
caused them to take up the fight
against plutocracy under a leader in
whom the masses Of the peoples party
have implicit confidence. Why should
not these parties work in unison to
bring about reforms on which they
agreed2 { A man who would be unwill-
ing to have good deed done unless
he could do it alone and get the en-
tire glory Of it'would be considered a
contemplate egotist. Why should
not the same rule apply to parties?

But this cooperation need not In
ply the death of our party. It is not
dead. 1t has maintained its organic
alton, and when it has helped bring
the republic back to its fundamental
principles and wrested from private
corporations the financial functions
that belong to the government, then it
will be ready to take up other reforms
on it's program and work for them,
single-handed it it must, or in co-ope-
ration with others who desire the same
reforms.

PEOPLES Nominating PRIMARIES
AND COUNTY CONVENTION.


In pursuance to the action taken by the
Peoples party of Kandiyohi county in conven-

19OO providing that nominations for the legisla-
tive and county ticket be made by direct
vote of the people of the different precincts,
peoples nominating primaries are hereby
called to take place in the various precincts
on Thursday evening, Sept 27, beginning at

Willmar tribune., 1900-09-19
VOTE CONSISTENTLY.

It should be borne in mind by all
who endorse the administration of
Gov. Lind that the Railroad and
Warehouse Commission is the most
important factor in carrying out the
reforms he stands for. Hitherto this
has been appointed by the governor,
and therefore for the last year Lind has
had commission that has been in full
sympathy with his ideas. But the
last legislature, in order to defeat the
proposed reforms, made the commits
sion elective. They figured on getting
a republican commission because the
republican ticket, with the exception
of the candidate for governor, has al
ways had good majority in Mime
sofa. The second step was the nom-
ination of republican candidates for
commissioners that were in thorough
sympathy with the big elevator CON-
panies and the railroads. If they are
elected they will restore the old Clau-
sen system of giving the farmers a
low grade for their wheat and letting
owners of terminal elevators have the
correct grade and the profit of the
difference in grade. The splendid
work of the present commission in
bringing the railroads to terms will
be undone. The elevator companies
and the railroads will strain, them
selves to the utmost to elect the re-
publican candidates for commission
ers.
It therefore behooyes the farmers
and all interested in fair transporta-
tion rates. to work for the election of
Messrs. Ringdal, Knox and Owen.
They are men in whom the people of
Minnesota can repose perfect conf
dence. With such men as railroad
commissioners and with Lind as gov
ernor the rights for which the Farm
ers' Alliance battled for so many years
will be secured. If you vote for Lind
don't vote to tie his hands by voting
tor railroad commissioners hostile to
him and to your interests. Vote for
Ringdal, Knox and Owen.
