The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1889-10-25

The last number of the Cooperator
of West La Crosse, Mimi, contains
the following items:
Last Monday Farmers Alliance
was organized at Spring Grove by
Rev. Allison, deputy state lecturer,
at which Andrew Bergh was elected
president, J. J. Bandley, vice presi-
dent, Edward Blakin, secretary and
Erick Loondahi, treasurer. They
will hold a meeting Saturday evening.
October 26.
There are over 700 organizations
of Farmers Alliances in the state and
soon: with any decent management,
every county will be organized. We
are as a rule, opposed to getting one
class to work against another, but
anything, that will get people to
thinking, is beneficial and in time they
will all unite to work for the gener-
al good and control the swindling
element so that all will derive benefit
from their judicious legislative re-
strictions.
The Alliance lecture at Mabel was
a failure, not more than thirty per-
sons were present No notice had
been given in their paper of it, and
an auction near by called many there,
so that no Alliance was organized.
AS they had no general notice given
for Newburg, Rev. Allison did not go
there. President Sprague was ex-
pected at Mabel but failed to appear.
The farmers do not take much of an
interest in their welfare and some of
the papers that are supported by
them do nothing for them, but work
for those who live by the sweat from
the farmers brOWs.
Hon. ]. N. Jones of Redwood coun-
ty, one of the Vice Presidents of the
State Alliance, is about to make a
canvass of that county and proposes
to organize every township in the
county. Mr.. Jones is a very able
elegant speaker.
The reports we get from all over
the State are very encouraging. The
good work is going on every where
By next fall every agricultural town.
ship in Minnesota will probably be
organized.

OLIVE BRANCH :

OLIVE BRANCH:
There is no use talking and talk
ing and talking. We are a plain sort
of country people out here. But we
know, in Stevens County, and in
Pope County, that when wheat is
worth % and 26 or even ten cents
less here than it is only 100 miles
east, that then there is something
rotten in Denmark.
Every man in Minnesota knows
that the last legislature were inform
ed of the facts. They know that
that legislature could have remedied
the evil. They know that not one
single line of law was enacted to
remedy matters. In fact, we all
know, and there is no use denying it,
that the recent legislature was dis
grace to the state. And in face of
facts, and of the detraction which is
thrown in the face of our fair state,
let us ponder, let us weigh matters.
Andi if there is any remedy let us ap-
ply it, even if, like some medicines, it
burns off many of our old political
ties. Let us be free men, and let us
look to our welfare.

Another INQUIRY.

We have another letter this week
from a man who is not satisfied with
our structures On the western rail-
roads. We cannot give his whole
letter, we refer to the note ofC.J. S. J.,
but will state his proposition in con-
densed form:
There may be a steal by elevator
men-we all admit it, or we do admit
it for sake of argument. But you
(we) admit that the freight from
some western county 600 miles, was
but Tic. a bushel, and the difference
in price, for that 100 miles, 23c. "Now
then the steal is on the buyers of
grain amt it?''
Our answer will be direct, to the
last question. No, the steal is not
on the elevators. The elevator COM
panies pay'for the privilege of rob-
bing. The railroads stand in with
them. But that is not the worst of
it "by long shot, The freight OF
lie. a hundred, or 7Ac. bushel is
an outrage. The pool against Du-
luth is another fraud. But about
that freight of 71lc a bushel:
1t costs about seven cents bushel
to take wheat from Minneapolis to
Chicago-over 400 hundred miles.
Why should it be 7Ac for 100 miles :?
It costs ID cents to take wheat from
Chicago to New York, over one thou
sand miles (by rail) on costly roads;
why should it cost X as much for less
than one-tenth the distance, on a
cheap road?
1t costs by water to take wheat l.
900 miles from Chicago, only g..
Yet to get wheat 42O miles to Chica-
go from the producer, it costs 15c.
Coal gets to Chicago, from 600 miles
east for 81 .5Oa ton. But ito get it the
first 400 miles west of Chicago it
costs four dollars ton!
Shall we give you more figures?
Don't answer by saying that the
eastern road does larger business
because it don't.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1889-10-25
enormous business. $1,000 mile is
q reasonable estimate.

enormous business. $1,000 a mile is
reasonable estimate.
Right of way is generally secured
by appraisement and purchase, by
gift, or by stock in theroad. A road
requires about eight acres to the
mile. The western land will not aver
age 30 to the acre-call it Is. This
calls for the enormous outlay of $500
to the mile. Damages amount to
something, but gifts and frauds will
balance that account. So it seems
very difficult, in our calculations,
taking the contracts now in our desk,
to find a place for $4,000 to the
mile for building an ordinary west
ern road.
Now, about the station buildings.
Suppose road had station y8
miles, and was two hundred miles
long. This would be 25 buildings,
and at an average of ST. 500 each-a
large estimate we have an ex-
pense OF $189 to the mile. Make it
$3.50 to the mile and with an insignif-
icant mileage cost, you have sta
ton OF an average cost of $4,000.
No, sir, Mr.. Engineer, figure as you
will, you cannot make a western
road, with an average lay of 3 foot
rise and 8 foot fall, with 9 foot rise
and fall every fourth mile, cost over
$40, 900 the mile. Weexpect you to
refer to bridges. By bridges we mean
really ''trestles,'' as few roads have
bridges Tin the west) which are not
built by companies. 1t takes huge
trestle to be technical "bridge."
The average cost of trestles, from 20
$50 feet long, is 81 900, and if road
have one to every five miles, the aver
age cost is but 5000 to the mile. So
you see we are still within the $1O,-
600 mile limit.
Ask us some more questions. 1t is
this spirit of investigation that gets
at the truth of things.

'The Great West" the new Farm
ers' Alliance organ, has appeared in
a dress of our famous self-spacing
type, and presents clean, bright,

have reason to be proud of it's me-
chanical appearance; and as for it's
editorials, they fairly scorch the pa

ALLIANCE NOTES.

D. A. Thayer, of Mankato, is max
ing a canvass of Blue Earth county.
We learn that Gen. James H. Baker,
OF that county, is a member of the
Alliance. 1t would be a good idea
for the Alliance to appoint him
Deputy Lecturer for the I'd congress
sional District,
We are glad to notice a great in
crease OF interest throughout our
state in Alliance matters.
At Blooming Prairie an Alliance
has just been organized with the fol-
lowing officers:
Clark j. Lake, President, C. E.
Symes, Vice President, Geo. A. Peter
son Sec'y and Ole Embrickson
Treasurer At Montevideo an en-
thusiastic meeting resulted in an Or
ganization with Messrs. A. F. Schulz.
Fred Baumhofer, John Heidman and
Jorgen Jorgenson at it's head.
At Lansing, last week, an Alliance
W. put on it's feet to stay, with Chas.
Fa ger President, Chas. Baumgartner
Vice President, John Handke, Treas.
and A. Beneke Secretary.
Not only this, but every old organ
ization we can hear of is manifesting
profound interest in Alliance work.
We wish a report OF the work ofevery
alliancein the state. Will the officers
OF county and township organiza-
lions bear this in mind and drop us
a line as to what they are doing.
KANDIYOHI COUNTY.
The state lecturer, Hon. Ignatius
DOnnelly, spoke at the Court House,
at Willmar, on Tuesday, Oct. 18th,
at 3 p. IN. The leading farmers, from
all parts of the county, were present,
and a hearty and unanimous senti-
ment was manifested in favor of the
Alliance. Henry Feig, of Atwater,
introduced the speaker: and Hon.
Nels Oman, a member Of the Alliance
was present. Deputy Lecturer ALI
son, will canvass the county in the
beginning of November, accompanied
by these two efficient gentlemen, and
we expect to hear that live Alliance
is in existence in every town in the
county.
HOUSTON COUNTY.
Five new alliances were organized
in Houston County in the last week,
and the cap-sheaf was put to the
work, by the county alliance at Gale
donia Oct. 18th. Now let the farm
ers of that old and furnishing coun-
ty put their shoulders to the wheel,
and never rest until every intelligent
farmer in the county is a member of
the Alliance. We don't want the
fools.
MCLEOD COUNTY.
Geo. W. Day, of Mcleod, Congress
siOnal Lecturer for the 3rd District.
is doing good work. Last week he held
three meetings in Mcleod county,
one in the town of Penn, one in the
town of Round Grove, and one in the
town of Collins. On Friday evening
he formed one subordinate Alliance
in the west end of the town of Lynn.
We hope that when Mr.. Day gets
Mcleod county thoroughly organ
lied he will carry his work through
out the rest of the congressional Dis
trict.
A notice of the meeting was sent to
Mabel paper,-why did it not ap-
pear?

MCLEOD COUNTY WIDE AWAKE
A Grand Meeting at Stewart.

Last Tuesday afternoon the Round
Grove and Collins Centre Alliance, of
Mcleod County, met at the village of
Stewart, and held what might be
called an old fashioned mass meeting.
The large village hall was crowded
with farmers, and their wives and
daughters.
Hon. Ignatius Donnelly addressed
them on the subjects which concern
the Alliance, for an hour or more, and
the editor of ''The Great West" add
ed his mite in a fifteen minute talk.
In the evening Mr.. Donnelly lectured
on "Ragnarok," the theme of one OF
his works.
In the afternoon Mr. Donnelly paid
his respects to his friend Slocum, of
the Glencoe Register. Slocum had
''gone" for Ignatius in a miserable
little two-for-a-cent funny thing.
After the State Lecturer of the AL
lance get through with Stoke, and
the audience were through with their
howls of laughter, the air seemed to
hold the question: "Where is Slocum
anyhow"
If one man ever proved faithful to
the Alliance interests through all
the changes OF political fortune, that
man is the author OF ''The Great
Cryptogram."
"The Great VEST through the
energy of a stalwart Alliance man,
Deputy Lecturer Day, took nearly so
subscribers, and every one seemed
pleased to think that the cause would
now have a paper. Mr.. Day is a
giant in work. OF course, as with all
other alliance workers, the politicians
try to down him. But he don't
down.
F. Jenkins, Esq, President of the
County Alliance, presided. Mr.. Per-
kins, Mr.. Donaldson, Mr.. Cutler and
other alliance men were present.
The local Glee Club furnished fine
music.
Say, when you see a member of the
last legislature nosing around at an
Alliance meeting; pulling out first
this one and then that one, to talk
little on the sly; and rather frigid on
the whole-why you can bet yourlast
sesterci on a blind mans shekel that
the coon is a ringster. You can
farther wager your grandfather's
necktie that they don't want the
Alliance to succeed. The best way to
fight the devil is to apply fire to his
tail. Just "Oh-yes," "Oh-certainly,"
''of-course," ''bet-your-glitter" these
legislative cusses to their faces, and
knife 'em clear to the hilt and drive
that in a little ways. Don't have
any mercy on them. Don't take any
excuses, sophistry or back talk. They
are in league with your foes; they
are robbing the jewels from your
wife's dresser, and the roses from her
cheeks, the books from your children
and as soon as able they will steal
the husks from your swine! Shake
them-and nominate a faithful alli-
ance fighter-a real, genuine, enthu-
siastic get-up-and-dust alliance fell
low. Never mind his Greek or his
Latin-if he can chaw off agood sized
chunkof honest manhood send him.

RUTTER AT NEw YoRK


The Farmers Review says: ''Itissaid that the
present accumulation Of Abutter ins New York
city is Without PRECEDENT 1t is estimated that
about thirteen million pounds ofsthis article
now stored in the city and immediate vicinity,
and the supply is increasing at the rate
of about three million nine hun
bred and fifty thousand pounds; a
week. The end is not yet, for from all parts Of
the coun Try come the reports that water and
suQculentgrass are plentiful, that the cows have
good appetites, and continue to make milRaas
fast as they can. The supply from New York
state is large, but the great bulk of the supply of
butter comes from the Western states. Most of
the fine table butter remains in this country, and
inferior grades and butter whose flavor has been
affected are shipped to Europe, where they are
skilfully doctored and improved. The
erage quantity exported from New York each
week has ordinarily been about five hundred
thousand pounds at this season of the year.
During the last six days $50 900 pounds were
exported. The amount of butter consumed in
New York city and vicinity per week is about
one million. six hundred thousand pounds. As will
be seen by the figures, the quantity that comes
in every week greatly exceeds that consumed.
