The tremendous increase in the spread
OF Anarchy and Socialism in the United
States demands the best attention of
every friend of the commonwealth.
both Of the private citizen and the one
who is elected to represent the citizen
In the halls Of state. No nation can
prosper when its legislators forget the
interests Of the common people, or pro-
ducing classes. Perhaps the most dan
gerous class Of Anarchists that exist to-
day are those of the Jamison-Rhodes-
Cleveland stripe, who. while posing as
statesmen and leaders of public af-
fairs, are misleading and betraying the
people.
Washington is full Of this class of
miscreants who, for good, tat Office.
would sell out and betray the people
who have honored them with Office.
From the present indications his ex-
cellency, William Mckinley, bids fair
to 40 for the grand old Republican
party what the once honorable and de-
testible Grover Cleveland did for the
Democratic party; both are assassins
OF American liberty and misrepresenta-
tives of American sentiment. Both ara
the servile tools OF organized wealth

Must Mean Something.

To simply say that we are Democrats
may sound laconic, but unless we stand
for something definite that earnest men
and earnest women can lay hold on in,
unless we offer hope to the toiling, suf-
fering, borrowing children of men, We
will be despised by mankind. Gov.
Altgeld Of Illinois In a recent speech.
Good enough, governor, but as you
are still supporting the Democratic par
ty. 1t might be as we'll for you to state
what your party offers to "the toiling,
suffering, sorrowing children of men"
You say unless your party stands "for
something definite that earnest men and
earnest women can lay hold on In life, :"
1t will be despised by mankind" We
fear you are wrong in this. We hope
you are right. Your party has stood
for nothing in quarter Of a century
and yet it has been supported instead
OF despised by the people. Under your
party's rule the peoples condition never
grew worse so fast. II you, governor,
With your advanced views, still hold
party higher than principle, how can
you expect others who have studied the
needs OF the country less, to despise
your party for failing to offer something
definite for the welfare of the people?

Socialism,

The union Of the Social Democratic
party with one wing Of the Socialist
Labor party conditionally agreed upon
at the Indianapolis convention which
nominated Debs for president, has been
vetoed by the members Of the Social

party had nominated Hartman for
president and Hays for president.
but sent q committee to the Debs con-
vention to effect union. The union
was agreed upon by the convention.
Hartman and Hays withdrew and Debs
was nominated for president and Harri-
man for vice-president, subject to q
referendum vote Of the members Of the
two parties. The Debs party disapprov-
ed the arrangement. the vote standing

understood that the Social Democrats
have clubs or leagues, members OF which
are required to pay certain dues in
order to be In good standing. Only
members In good standing may vote
on party matters, hence the small vote
does not represent any considerable por-
ton Of the strength Of the Social DEM

ANOTHER SMASH-UP
OF THE WORST FAILURES IN THE
HISTORY OF THE STATE.
THE FARMERS THE CHIEF sT1rrEp.
ERS-MORE REPUBLICAN,
PROSPERITY.

The first meeting Of the creditors of q
M. Walbridge, the Northfield grain deal
or, whose recent bankruptcy closed the
doors of 1S elevators, extending from
North1eld to Echo, was held yesterday
before Referee Doran, St. Paul.
A large amount Of Indebtedness was
represented, the heaviest creditor being
the Minneapolis firm of Robbins & War
ner.
The Citizens bank Of Northfield holds
claims amounting to over $4,000, while
innumerable smaller claims for wheat
stored are outstanding.
The meeting yesterday developed the
fact that large sized fight is on for the
appointment Of trustee. The Northfield
interests have their candidate for trustee
who will be opposed by the Robbins &
Warner people. The smaller creditors
seem to be fighting between both these
interests, and will probably present a
candidate. A three-cornered fight NAV
result in no selection by creditors. In
which case the referee will be empower
ed to name the man.
Meanwhile Walbridge is awaiting trial
IN Dakota county on the charge of grand
larceny.
The allegation is that Walbridge has
sold much of the grain left by farmers
with him in storage, and that besides the
original wheat receipts given to the
farmers. other receipts were given to
Robbins & Warner upon the same grain
70 secure them for money loaned.
Robbins & Warner replevined all the
grain they could find, but did not find
enough to satisfy their claim. They sold
the grain taken. and now the farmers
are wondering where they are to come
in.
The failure Is expected to prove one Of
the worst ever known in the grain busf-
ness OF the state.-Mfnneapolis Tribune.
