should not think that we are for Bryan
and fusion because our delegation" to the
Lincoln committee meeting went over to
the Butler Bryan faction. Nearly all OF
our 1S district conventions gave instruc-
tions to the delegates to the national con-
vention to support straight Populist
ticket first, last and all the time, and
against fusion in any form with the old
treacherous, lying Democracy. Nearly all of
our delegates will attend the Cincinnati
convention which is to be the only true
POpulist convention. Allen and Buffers
little outfit will be Democratic side show,
and will nominate W. Judas Bryan. Barker
and DOnnelly are all right, but why should
we go north of the Mason and Dixon's
line for both the names on our ticket?
Give us the grand old greenback and Popu-
list war-horse, Major Jerome c. Kearby,

Buy No Railroads.

We ought not to ask our government
to buy any railroads. Let our govern
mcnt build two great double-tracked trans
continental railways-north and south, east
and west, issuing it's own acceptances as
full legal tender and receivable for all rail-
road services, and the thing will be done
without dollar of debt. This would bring
the great combines to their knees and be
the entering wedge for a general reforma-
tion. Just reflect upon the consequences.
1t would be a Universal eye opener. This
will be the only solution of a situation
daily becoming more strained. Nothing has
so divided our people in two great classes
as has our railroad system. The we1l-to- do
have been growing more cultured by travel;
the masses are tied like serfs to one spot.
Daily the abyss widens between people
who should grow more equal and homo
geneous if this republic is to last.

Picnic at Spicer.
SPICER. Miun.. June 6.

SP1CER, Minn., June 6, 1900.
The G.. N. shop employees will have
their annual picnic at the Spicer paw
ilion on the west shore of Green Lake,
June %. This bids fair to be the
largest number of people that ever
visited our lake in a body. They have
engaged 25 coaches for the occasion.
Last season, when the picnic was held
at Lake Osakis, 1900 tickle is were sold.
Their representative, Mr., Enderhus,
looked over the grounds on the 4th
inst, and is we'll pleased and will
make a favorable report. I have
signed to furnish things that cannot
be furnished without a great deal OF
expense and labor. For instance, I
have contracted to furnish Is row
boats. I have only 7 of my own. Any
one owning boats on Green Lake will
confer favor on me by turning them
over to me at a fair price for that one
day. The people of Spicer are called
upon to assist in making this picnic a
success and make q good impression
on the association, thereby enabling
us to secure them for future years.

hold for his church among the mountain

where upon inquiry he was told that
there was can Episcopal' in the neigh
