The Willmar Gazette would have
US discuss the persons who composed
the juries that repeatedly failed to
agree or outright acquitted certain
influential men who were accused of
the illegal sale of liquor in this city.
1t is wholly unnecessary for US to do
50. The first jury which the Gazette
names was not one particularly COM
planned of by the temperance element.
If the Gazette wishes to drag out
all the juries selected by the sheriff
as vindication, let it begin with
those selected in the Bryant trials in
the city courts. The public will read
lily pick out the men who openly aYow
that they would never vote to convict
anyone for selling liquor. Others
could easily be proven as trusted GUS
toners of the places that caused the
police department trouble to eradicate.
The motives of this paper in discus
sing the record of the sheriff are, we
hope, not so UNIV orthy as our contem-
porary charges. They are inspired
from the same feelings OF disgust that
possess large number Of republicans
of this city when they see an appoin-
tee of the sheriff VIGOROUSLY and in.
timately associate with men who at
every opportunity seek to override
liquor laws of the city.

The peoples party reaftirms it's adherence
to the basic truths Of the Omaha PLATFORM
of 1892, and Of the subsequent platforms OF
1896 and 1900. In session IN IT'S !ouItn
national convention on July T. 1904, IN the
city OF Springfield, Ill.,, it draws INSPIRATION n
from the day that saw the birth OF the ma,
ton as we'll as it's own birth as party, ana
also from the soul Of him who lived at ITS
present place of meeting: we renew our
allegiance to the old fashioned American
spirit that gave this nation existence ana
m de it distinctive among the peoples OF me
earth. We again sound the keynote OF the
Declaration Of independence that an men are
created equal in political sense, when was
the sense in which that instrument being a
political document intended that the utter.
ance should be understood. We assert that
the departure from this fundamental truth
is responsible for the ills from which we
suffer as a nation, that the giving OF special
privileges to the few has enabled them TO
dominate the many, thereby tending to de-
strov the political equality which is the
cornerstone of democratic government:
we vigorously protest against the spirit OF
III AMIN onis1n and Of thinly yelled monarchy,
that is invading certain sections OF our
national life, and Of the administration it.
self This is nation Of peace, and we de-
plore the appeal to the spirit OF force and
r1ilitarism which is shown in i'll advised and
ways in the denial of the rights of man I'M
der martial law.
\ political democracy and an industrial
despOtism cannot exist side by side; and
nowhere is this truth more plainly shown
til an in the gigantic transportation monop-
olies which have bred all sorts OF kindred
trusts, subverted the government OF many
Of the states, and established their official
agents in the national government. We sub
nit that it is better for the government to
own the railroads than for the railroads to
own the government, and that one Or the
others alternative seems inevitable.
We call the attention of our fellow citizens
to the fact that the surrender of both Of the
old parties to cooperative influences leaves
the Peoples party the only party OF reform
in the nation.
Therefore we submit the following plat
form Of principles to the American people:
Money and Banks.
The issuing of money is function of govern
ment and should never be delegated to cor
porations or individuals. The constitution
gives to congress alone, power to issue
money and regulate its value.
We therefore dem and that all money shall
be issued by the government in such quantity
as shall mant ain stability in prices, every
dollar to be full legal tender, none Of which
shall be debt redeem able in other money.
Savings Banks.
We demand that Postal Savings banks be
established by the government for the safe
deposit Of the savings of the people.
Labor.
We believe in the right of labor to organize
for the benefit and protection OF those who

Bell dreamed and theOrlZed over the
problem of talking with people, at a
distance; and the telephone responds
to the fact.
Edison longed to preserve the speech
and tones of his friends dear to him.
The photograph is your answer.
And so it has ever been and prob
ably always will be that the man who
proposes an innovation in the things
that are, will be called theorist.
The populist proposes that the gov
eminent shall neither stand still nor
recede but keep progressing steadily
forward seeking, little by little, to i'm
prove on the things that are and bring
them more into harmony with mans
social instincts. And so he says the
telegraph and telephone should be-
come part of the government means
for transmission of intelligence and
be operated, as is the postal system,
for the benefit of ALL
The same with the railroads which
have become the prime factors for
building trusts and exploiting the peo-
pie, should be taken over by the gov
eminent and like pay demanded for
like service with cost the same, be q
man rich or poor, plebian or pluto.
He says that money is the equiva-
lent of all things, and therefore its
control should not be entrusted to in
dividuals or corporations, but should
be exercised for all the people and it's
volume 30 regulated that there should
at all times be enough to transact the
business of the country without q re-
sort to credit.
The land, he says, is Gods heritage
to all His people and should not be
monopolized and held from use, On
failing misery and want on the home
less.
He says that millions of the savings
of the people that are entrusted to in
dividuals and corporations for safe
keeping are lost and that therefore,
the government should undertake, the
safeguarding of these savings by the
establishment of postal savings banks.
Like the theories of the past, these
things are opposed by interested, timid
nonprogressive minds, but so sure Of
popular government is a fact, that free
schools, government postal service
and other reforms have come about

FACTS VERSUS THEORY.

Politics is the science of govern
ment, and political parties are the en-
gines for enactipg into law theories
of political adhererts. Prior to the
adoption of the constitution, govern
ment by the people was q theory. AT.
ter it's adoption it became fact.
Not many years ago every man had
to pay for schooling his own children.
Many were too poor to do this and 80
it came to pass that many children
grew up in enforced ignorance. Some
dreamer, some theorist advanced the
idea that free Institutions rested on
the intelligence of the people who ex-
ercised the right of franchise and,
hence, every child should be educated.
To do this required that the rich be
taxed to maintain schools where all
might attend and get an education.
The property interests fought it and
denounced it as robbery, but the theo-
rist kept hammering away for man.
kind and won. The free school law
was enacted, and the theory became a
fact.
Formerly individuals and corpora
tions carried the mails and It cost rs
cents to send letter. Some crank
advanced the crazy theory that the
government should carry the mails
and after computing the cost of the
service as q whole, divide the total by
the number of pieces carried and after
finding the comparative cost of a
single piece charge that amount and
save the profits to the people that in
dividuals and corporations had beer
making.
Like the other theories it was op'
posed bitterly, but the reformers won
and the theory of the mail service be-
came fact and we are now getting
letters carried 10000 miles for two
cents that formerly cost rs cents te
carry as many miles.
And go it is. Every new invention
every good thing in government w
owe to the theorist.
Newton was q dreamer, theori-t
and yet the law OF gravitation is &C
copied as universal fact.
Bruno was theorist and yet he
died for q theory that all civilization
now accepts as true.
| Franklin was q theorist and YET
every electric motor is testimony &c
the truth of his theory.
Howe was a theorist and yet the sew
ing machine, which was once stigma
tized as 1.-THE DEVILS NEEDLE" Is q

pERILS OF LAND AND SEA
Captain Wiilnofs Remarkable Escape
Shows What to Do In Time
Of Trouble.

For many years, Captain Willnef,
say the Times of Gloucester, Mass,
was one of the best known seamen in
the Gloucester Fleet. The sea and
its dangers had no terror for him, but
the catarrhal troubles with which he
suffered for fifteen years made him
dread the nights at sea, for he had to
walk the cabin floor, being unable to
lie down and sleep on account of the
constant catarrhal dropping.
Captain Willnef went to two differ
ent hospitals for treatment, but could
get no lasting benefit. He constant
ly raised yellow and green-phlegm and
his trouble became so unbearable and
nauseating that he was ashamed to 60
out in company. When despairing Of
ever getting relief, his wife purchased
BY omei outfit for him, and trying i,
before going to bed, he enjoyed the
first whole nights sleep for ten years.
Captain Willnef says II have used
less than two bottles of Hyomei and
have been cured by the remedy. My
friends ask me what IL responsible 70,
my improvement, and I tell them Hyo.

We feel that intelligent organic alton of labor
is essential; that it raises the standard OF

Lincoln that labor is prior to capital, and is

Justice which will promote industrial peace

voluntary arbitration.
We favor the enactment Of legislation look
ing to the improvement of conditions for

Wet labor in competition with free labor.
and the exclusion from American shores OF
foreign pauper labor.
We favor the shorter work day, and de-
clare that if eight hours constitutes days
hours should constitute days labor in fac
tories, work shops and mines.
Initiative and Referendum.
AS means of placing all public questions
directly under the control OF the people, we
demand that legal provision be MADE under
which the people may exercise the initiative,
referendum and proportional representation
and direct vote for all public officers with the
right of recall.
The Land.
Land, including all the natural sources of
wealth, is heritage OF all the people, and
should not be monopolized for speculative
purposes. and alien ownership of land should
be prohibited.
Human Rights.
We demand a return to the original inter-
probation of the constitution and fair and
impartial enforcement of laws under it, and
denounce government by injunction and inl-
prisonment without the right of trial by
jury.
Trusts and Monopoly.
TO prevent unjust discrimination and
monopoly the government should own and
control the railroads, and those public utili'
ties which in their nature are mOnOpOlles.
To perfect the postal service, the government
should own and operate the general telegrap h
and telephone systems and provide a parcel
post.
AS to these trusts and monopolies which
are not public utilities natural mOnopO-
lies, we demand that those special privileges
which they now enjoy and which alone en-
able them to exist, should be Immediately
withdrawn. Corporations being the crea-
| lures Of government should be subjected to
such governmental regulations and control
as will adequately protect the public: We
demand the taxaton of monopoly privileges
while they remain in private hands, to the
extent of the value of the privileges granted
We demand that congress shall enact a
general law uniformly regulating the power
and duties of all Incorporated companies
