It will be gratifying to all true pop
ulists to know that the attempts to dis
solve the party in Idaho, Kansas,
Minnesota and Nebraska have signal
ly failed. There has been no time
within the last three years when the
determination, in this state, to resist
all disintegrating influences was
stronger than now. Senators Patter.
SOD, Heitfeld and Harris can go when
they see fit, but the populists of the
states named will refuse to follow them
into the camp of the democratic party,
or any other organization.-Mad ison

Philosophy Of Theophilus.
Prinsburg, March 81, 1902.

MIR JIMMINNY CRICKETTs:
I showed in my last letter that farm.
ing today is only part of the factory
system. Production today is not in
dividual but social. This Industrial
evolution has greatly increased the
productive power of the workers, be
they farmers or wage laborers, but the
fruits of it are reaped by the few. The
trust today uses the methods of social
ism, that is, combination and co oper-
alton, to get the best results from ma
ture and man. Today we are suffering
from p1utocratic socialism, but to de-
stroy the trust does not mean the in
dependence OF the worker. The tools
of production are social, they are op.
Grated by cooperative labor, and must
be owned comparatively by the labor
srs. We populists must clearly under
stand the issue today. The time was
when we backed the democratic tarty
in advocating palliative measures,
like the free coinage of silver, but cen
tralization of industry and monopoly
of the means of production in the
hands of q few have since that time in
trenched itself in class legislation, so
that we must now occupy an advanced
position. The competitive principle
is wasteful and injurious, and it is be-
ing rapidly supplanted by the princi-
pie of combination. The small en-
ployer in small field of operation
must extract larger profit from labor
than the great exploiter. BY increas-
ing the number of exploiters the Ia
borer can not be benefited. We have
been through that stage of industrial
development and we do not want to 20
back to that which is past The solu-
ton of our trouble is in moving for
ward, not in retrogression. I hereby
heartily endorse the sentiment of the
address printed in the TRIBUNE OF
March 10. Now, my dear friend,
spring 10 here; production must 20 on;
time and tide wait for no man. Na-

will resist any attempt to disntegrate the

"Resolved4, That it is our judgment that a

members OF the party in every section of the
state may be fully informed OF party condi-

in the United States and that it hold at least
one yearly meeting IN some central place at
which thorough interchange OF views and an

may be had.

in Kansas we have only ia. If Kan
sas had as many as Nebraska in pro-
portion to her population, there would
be 1872 boys instead of ia. Taking
Nebraska as an example, we lack 2l8
boys of having our share.
Where are these missing boys? On
the farm, in the store and shop, and
in the school, growing up to manhood
without personal knowledge of what a
saloon is. Until some better explana-
tion is given, I shall firmly believe
that the absence of saloons from Kan
sas and their presence in Nebraska is,
at least, q partial solution of this
problem.-James A. Troutman.

bottle of whiskey. In case of ner-
vousness and low spirits hot lemonade
and rest will do more real good to re-
store the shattered nerves than q
whole key of whiskey.
There comes man to Willmar. He
looks and talks and acts like a man.
He is q farmer. He does business.
He is regarded as a good, sensible
man. Now he is returning to his ru-
raj home. With difficulty he crawls
into the vehicle. He can not sit erect.
His head falls hither and thither. He
talks nonsense. He swears and sees
things double. He can not drive his
horses-he can not see the road. His
humanity is gone. He is q brute. He
comes to his home d brute.
Now, who is responsible for his
Transformation into q brute? Some
one is the master and artist of this
queer type of being. You say, the
saloon.keeper is the maker of such
fellows. Yes, but who put the saloon
keeper there to transact such abomin-
able business? You say, the city
council, which issued license for him
and received the money into the city
treasury. Yes, but who appointed
and authorized the city council to H.
cense these places, where good sensi-
bic men are within q few hours trans
formed into brutes? You may not
like to answer this question. Then
let me say, that it is all the voters for
saloons in Willmar who are severally
and jointly responsible for the evil
consequences and workings of the sa-
looms.
I have often wondered if the people
in Willmar who want the saloons feel
very proud and happy when they see
drunken men traverse the streets and
men from the rural districts return
home without any traces of manliness
in their behavior. A city ought not
to deal out such stuff. It ought to
give people coming in for business
better returns for their money than
craziness. It would draw more trade
and good feeling to Willmar If these
nasty saloons we're given q lsy'oh for
any length of time. - - -.
A VOICE FROM THE PEOPLE.
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1902-04-02

Nebraska populists are on the alert.
The following from paper in tina,
state gives evidence of a loyal country
press:
"a much needed association OF
pnpulist editors was formed at Lin
coin last week Every man who pub
fishes a populist paper should join it.
Hon. Eric Johnson of Wahoo was
made president, and Hon. Hugh F.
Mcintosh of Omaha was elected secre
tary for the ensuing year. The out
look for the association is bright"

LICENSE OR NO LICENSE--WEiICF]

1t depends on the voters in Willmar
at election rext Tuesday. Will they
say no, or will they say yes and let
the grogshops stand there another
year, dealing out damnation and mis-
cry? Will the majority say no and
thereby prohibit the mischievous bust
ness to continue it's wicked work? The
dignity and fair name of the city
of Willmar require that the
voters put stop to business that
harms so many people and the com
munity at large and does no good ex-
cept to the saloon keeper, who pockets
the money from the victims of evil de-
sires. Much of the stuff sold in the
saloons is no liquor at al but drusged
fluids, that are not fit for hogs, much
less for human beings. Some poison.
Gus stuffs kill man faster than genu.
inc alcohol. But greedy keepers OF
grogshops will often sell such stuff
it is cheaper and makes them larger
profits, and hastens their victims fa> t.
er down the dark path to destruction.
Will the people of Willmar legalize
such business and be responsible
throughout the whole year for the bit
ter fruits which it produces? If they
do, they ought to take pains to see to
that pure, wholesome liquors are sold.
But this will be just as hard as to
root out blindpigs. How can the good
voter, who loves humanity, who loves
his family and his reighbor, want tc
be responsible for bad whiskey being
sold to men who are the victims of q
degraded desire and help to throw
them headlong down into the pit OF in
describable misery and Indebtedness:
There is no need Of any saloons in
Willmar. License money is wasted
money many times it's amount. Il
never helped q city, but always brings
expense and trouble. A man never
needs whiskey if he is healthy, and
rarely if he is sick. The best men or
earth never drink alcoholic liquors.
Alcohol is q medicine, like quin{ne,
aud substitute can readily be found
In case of sickness. In q case OF q
bad cold mustard plaster on the

Former Governor of Arkansas Says He

Former Governor of Arkansas Says He
Was Tricked.
Little Rock, Ark, March 26.-The
most interesting and by far the most
sensational contribution to the pres
ent senatorial campaign in Arkansas,
which closes on Friday night, was
made today by Ex-Governor Dan W.
Jones, who resided for more than
thirty years in the same town with
Senator James K. Jones.
The ex- Governors statement is in
reply to a letter published yesterday
by Senator Jones denying that he had
deceived Governor Jones when the
latter was an applicant for the position
of National Commissioner from Ar
kansas to the st. Louis exposition.
The governor closes his statement as
follows:
when Senator Jones came to see
me to explain why was not appointed
he gave none of the reasons stated IN
his letter He told me that the presi-
dent has been impressed with the idea
that l would not be acceptable to the
democracy of Arkansas.
1.-The senator does not deny that he
stated to Mr.. Neill that he had never
at any time asked the president to
appoint me.
Il never had the slightest intimation
from Senator Jones that he was not
urging my ap-
