HON. JOHN LIND.
The Argus says there is just one vote
for silver in Holland. Ask Feig about
it Bro. Birch.
The Minstrel entertainment Thurs
day evening will be something every
one can enjoy.
Prof. N. J. Hong will speak at the
Arctandec Town Hall next Saturday
evening. Rainy weather prevented
Mr. Hong from keeping an appoint
ment at that place before but this time
the citizens of Arctander and Norway
Lake will not be disappointed.
Who has not heard of the Republi
can candidate who is always betting
on everything? He will bet on facts,
on theories and the result of the elec
tion. We all know him here in Will
mar. We also know that it takes no
brains to make a bet any gambler
can do that.
Our readers have doubtless heard of
the republican candidate with the
flexible convictions. He seems to be
willing to be anything for everybody
provided he can only get into the of
fice. He is republican with republi
cans, a populist among the pops. No
one is a better Prohibition than he,
that is when he is jyiywig Proaibs.
The management of the Alexander
Minstrel Co. spare neither pains nor
expense to present an evening of
music that the most fastidious will en
Joy and appreciate. They have a
splendid orchestra, in addition to
.their "wonder band," and the partici
pants in the entertainment are trained
singers. At the Opera House Thurs
day evening of this week.
In conclusion do not forget our
neighbor Maj. Bowler, of Bird Island,
our candidate for Lieut. Gov. Major
Bowler is the only veteran soldier on
either state ticket He served gallant
ly through the war. He enlisted as a
private and came out as a major.
McKinley did no more. Every man
who votes for John land should vote
for Major Bowler. He deserves your
vote.
Republicans say that Minnesota is
safe for them. Yet, C. A. Pillsbury
comes out, tears his hair, and howls
with the shreik of dgsuair that every
business man in Minneapolis must
leave his business and work politics
from now until Nov. 3rd to save the
State from popocracy and ruin. Keep
Still brethren, the G. O. P. is in his
death struggle in Minnesota, and we
may expect some powerful grunts.
Look ou£ fox ligs and roorbacks
from now on til next Tuesday, men
will come and tell you all kinds of
stories about candidates, and hold
out promised from certain ones to do
thus a so. Every town with a creek
in it has been promised state aid to
build abridge if they will vote for a
certain man. Of course all such elec:
tion tricks are humbug pure and sim:
pie. No populist should fop one mo.
ment listen to such olap trap. Leave
that to the republicans.
Terrence V. Powderly, the Past
Grand Master Workman ofthe Knights
of Labor, spoke to an audience at the
Opera Bouse last Saturday night
This meeting, coming as it did- the
evening after-Debs, gave atl^a
to compare the two men.. Debs is, a
labor union man in thorough sym
pathy with the wockim|fl|pn\ '*|&w$9r«

speaker, has beoome a traitor to or

The peop#:olfe Wiltmar and- of
Kandiyohi ad the pleasure to
listen to theJplpand renowned A. R.
U. Chief,\Eutf&»'v*, Debs, last Friday
night. M^any|^ejeple came in from the
county and *jp*£ge parade marched
from the BryiBind Lind headquar
ters to the Opera House. The build
ing was crowded to its utmost capa
city and inan^y were unable to gain
entrance.. W^Jtav« neither space nor
disposition to|1»fer at length to the
principles so ijfo|v*j).dvocated by Mr.
Debs. Still tfp are compelled to say
that he delivered probably the most
powerful addipp8{we have had so far
in this camp^gn: The evident sin
cerity of the nun, and intense earnest
ness and genuine fellow feeling that
persuades his^ whole being give a
power to his utterances that is simply
wonderful.
Mr.*.De1B isjnoreof a humanitari
an preacher than a politician. In fact
he is no politician at all.
His Speech was not only eloquent
and forcible* but powerful. As he
proceeded with his soul stirring per
iods for the ^elevation of humanity
tears were seen to trickle down many
cheek. And when finally the pent ap
plause broke loose there was such a
cheering as neveVwras seen inside of
the rink before^ ?iT
We are .under "obligation to Mr.
Bogart for getting Debs here. He
powerfully strengthened our cause
and all went afp^. feeling that our
cause was thev j^ause of truth and
humanity. j.SjL

The spirits of political strife have

The Debs rally, in point of number
of voters attending, was no doubt the
largest held at Willmar this year.
The enthusiasm was immense. The
New Louden Cornet Band came down,
and delegations, from most of the
Bryan & Lind Clubs of the county
were present. Some time after the
close of the meeting another parade
was organized and with the New Lon
don band in the lead marched over
into the first ward to the residence of
A. T. Bogart where Debs was spend
ing the night. The yard about the
house was filled witn the eager march
ers, and after music by the band,
Messrs. Debs and Keliher responded
with short speeches. The cheers which
rang out on the still night were given
with a will, and must have disturbed
the slumbers of the1st warders. Even
the engines of the R. R. yard seemed
to catch the infection and there were
mysterous "signals" given when the
parade crossed the tracks. Mr. Debs
was well pleased with his reception at
Willmar.
