Rahilly's OratOrical Mo sterpfece.
Three thousand newspapers in the
United States are gleefully quoting
Daniel Dougherty's speech nominating
Grover Cleveland, against Pat Rahilly's
Grafton at Cincinnati lauding Ignatius
Donnelly for the vice-presidency. Mr..
Donnelly, however, is not disturbed by
the current censure directed towards his
eulogist. He reprints the Cincinnati
version in the newspaper which he pub
fishes and glorifies the reciter. That
ought to settle the matter in favor of
the Wabasha county farmer. He had
the greater subject to talk about. and II
he chose for that purpose the language
which Mr.. Dougherty had misapplied
In placing Cleveland before the conven-
ton. 1t was his heaven-born right to do
so. Genius is not always original and
inventive. Its highest powers are some
times displayed in the role of an absorb
ent and illustrator. Witness Shake

earlier literature that served his pur-
pose to set forth the passions and the

author, Lord Bacon, we join with him

In Fanenuil Hall.

The flame that once thro' Faneuil Hall
The soul of patriots shed,
Now hangs its forms on Faneuil wall
As If that soul were fed:
So sleeps the pride of Washington
So glory's thrill is DER,
And hearts that beat for victory won
/ Now feel that pulse no more.
No more to chief and ladies bright
The flame of Fanecil swells:
The horde Of plutes who SCOT at right
It's tale Of ruin tells;
Thus Freedom now so seldom wakes
The only throb she gives
Is when some heart indignant breaks
To show that still she lives.

TO THE FARMERS OF THE NATION.
Can you not see the plan that has
been formulated for you to follow?
All other kinds of business have been
formed into organizations to protect
themselves and 1t is as natural as life.
Now conditions have shown them that
the great inventions of man have SIM
plifed manufacture to such an extent
that II there were no intelligent exer-
else chaos would be the order of the day
IN all lines, while on the other hand,
the farmer continues to scatter his seed
IN the spring time with q bandage over
his eyes, keeps 1t On all summer and in
the fall hauls his wheat and farm pro-
ducts to market with the bandage still
over his eyes andtturns it over to the
other fellow that is organized to make
all they can out of the situation. Now
there is not a vocation in the world that
could make so solid and permanent an
organization as could the farmer, as all
other combines have to be sustained by
the farmer. .notice some smart
alecks have written articles for the press
setting forth reasons why it would not
be practicable, all o1twhich showed there
was more room III their heads than
brains. I will cite only one instance.
and you can make the application. Mr..
Letter raised the price OF wheat $3.50 a
bushel, and why; because there was a
movement to knock bare the market
and his stock of wheat was visionary.
while on the other hand, If all the farm
ers In the two Dakotas and Minnesota
were to organize and control their own
products. which would mean zoo. 600 600
bushels of wheat, instead of the price
being established at Liverpool, Mime
apolis would be the market center Of
the world. This movement is now in
progress and it is to better the condition
OF all. would say to the business men
OF all the villages and cities of the land
that when. the farmer is getting fair
prices for his product he does not care
II you do make reasonable profit on
your goods, but when he has to sell his
wheat at cost he must suit himself to
circumstances for self-protectfon and
buy where he can the cheapest and it
Will be to the interests Of every business
man, financially and socially, to advo-
cate and aid all they can this farmers
organization. II it were possible I
would have trusts and combines abolish
ed, but take the position that thew are
here to stay. Political parties will have
antitrust planks in their platforms, but
1t will be impossible to destroy a trust
that has money bahind it as is was to
destroy human slavery that we strug
gled 80 years to subdue, or as impossible
as 1t would be to reverse the course Of
the sun. And the only salvation for the
farmers If the nation is to organize.
While the organization is crude and i'm
perfect as yet, come to our meetings and
help us to correct and fit it to meet con-
d1tlons. Respectfully yours,

knowledge has been net only
always at the party's command

the most valuable thing of the kind ever

knowledge of and interest in our local

his fitness for the important Office for

PRESENT DUTIES.

Now that the National Republican
Convention has met, finished its work
and adjourned, Republicans the country
over should apply themselves to the dis.
charge OF the obligations put upon them
by the conventions decisions.
In making this observation we have in
mind Republicans who are such by con-
yiction; those whose experiences have
convinced them OF the necessity for Re-
publican control of State and national
governments, in order to secure Just and
capable government and the well being
OF the people. To such Republicans there
can be but one desirable outcome of the
present campaign, tie full and complete
success OF the Republican ticket, That,
and nothing short of it, fills the measure
OF the obligation implied in accepting
the action Of the National Republican
convention as authoritative.
1t is not to be expected that every Re-
publican voter would be entirely salts
he'd with the Conventions findings; or
that every voter should, without serious
thinking, be able to fit himself harmopi-
ously into the niche made for him by new
adjustments which,in some degree, must
always follow such important delibera.
tlons as those Of the National Convention.
Inc time for such thinking is now. The
time for factional discussion has gone
The time for contending over personal
interests, and preferences has gone. To
renew these discussions and contentious
is TO retard the work of unifcation es.
Hential for shoulder to shoulder and heart
to heart work for Republican success.
The present duty is to think and decide

TAI reservation or evasion, and to pet
