MERCHANTS PLEASED.

The business mems league of
the village of Brooten has set an
example that is worth following
by commercial clubs and associa
tiOns of business men in other
towns. They are Offering a re-
ward of ten dollars to anyone re-
porting a violation of the law on
part of the saloonkeepers of that
town. The violations they have
in view is the selling of liquor to
minors or habitual drunkards,
especially those who have been
blacklisted by the village council
keeping open after hours or on
Sundays, etc. It is stated that
some of the leading business men
of that village, those engaged in
other lines than that of dealing
out intoxicating liquors, are be-
coming decidedly weary Of the
rum traffic in that village, and
that it is probable that the ,ques-
ton of license or no license may
submitted to a vote at the next
election. Their neighboring WILL

years, because the people who

.s WILIMAR TRIBUNE C0MPANY:--The
Ignorance Of republican party editors
upon the money question is astound-
ing. Ny statement in your columns,
that the peoples party proposes ''an
honest money system without re-.
demption dollar, = caused the Willmar
Republican Gazette to inquire:
How can there be an honest money
system without redemption dollar?
What is the value of. q paper dollar
without it's redemption dollar?" !,
Is The constitution makes it the duty
of congress to coin money and declare
the value thereof. 1t has no right to
delegate that power. Judge Tiffany,
discussing this power in constitutional
law, says: c IL -.
"Money is the sovereign authority
impressed on that which Is capable of
taking and retaining the impression.
That upon which the stamp is placed
is called coin; the coin may be metal,
parchment or paper. The value is in
the stamp and not in the metal or ma
terial." j~:.
The supreme. court in its famous
greenback decision affirmed the truth
made plain by Judge Tiffany. All
money is the creation of law and
all actual money is full legal tender.
Upon this question the North Ameri.
can Review said: "Metallic money
while acting as coin, is identical with
paper money in respect to being desti.
tute of intrinsic value" The value OF
money is in the law and not in the ma.
terial bearing the stamp of govern.
ment, therefore actual money does moi
need redeemer. To crafty the ava

crease its profits an asset currency

Jefferson advocated the states
rights doctrine as a protection
for the people against a tyran-
nical central government. Now
adays the trusts invoke the same
doctrine to hinder the people in
their efforts to protect them
selves against the trusts. And
the republicans have suddenly
became firm believers in states
rights. They. now claim that

by the message ''Peace on Earth,

US. Not that the application of
this angelic message should be
confined exclusively to the annual
holiday season, but that at this
time, of all times, such sentiment
should make itself manifest.
cit is more blessed to give than

of which every true observer of
the beautiful Christmas custom
acknowledges. A destitute or

turn in kind furnishes the most
complete satisfaction to the giver,

highest expression of Christmas

The interchange of gifts of
friends and members of families
furnishes the great amount of
Christmas giving. All are made

done in the right spirit. The

Above all Christmas is the
children's festival. How their
eyes glisten with happiness
You busy man or woman of the
world, stop a moment and recall
your own childhood. How much
Christmas meant to you then
What an age it seemed from one
Christmas to the next one. How
your heart yearned for things
which seem such trifles to you
now. Look about you. Every
little child heart whose longings
you help to realize will spread its
contagion of joyous life in your
stony heart.
The editor of the Tribune wish
es the reader Merry Christmas
and hopes that the two thousand
and more homes to which the
paper makes it's way will all be
filed with rejoicings in the true
spirit of the season during the
coming week.

There are scores of business men
in the state who do not intend to
move to Jacksonville, nor do they
propose to abandon that section OF
she state-viz. the interior-upon
which their metropolitan city feeds and
grows great, for that would mean in
slant disaster to all, and some of US,
leaving out the question of cold COM
mercialism, have little sentiment
about seeing our home towns, as well
as the whole great and beautiful
state, grow and prosper.
In fact, many of Us are determined
to stay right where We are ana do
business, and We believe the Florida
Railroad commission will help us to
do it. Should the commission refuse
TO grant the reasonable demand for
an equitable adjustment of certain

how great is their danger, and will
