FOR ST. LOUIS.

Geo. w. Day writes that he started
Dec. 20, for the Great Alliance Conven-
ton at st. Louis, which met this
week. The entire office force of the
GREAT WEST tried to push the edi-
tor off tOO-but the business of the
new paper has grown so suddenly
that it was unadvisable to leave it.
And vet the Convention is probably
the most IMPORTANT ONE EVER HELD
IN THE COUNTRY.
Mr.. Day says he will visit a sister
in Kansas before he returns, and
continues:
CDR, you are my man every time,
and l will do all l can for your paper
when l return. | am glad to know
our cause has SO noble a defender
blushes are now suffusing the edi-
torial ''cheek l hope to know vet

A Fillmore County correspondent
writes us:
Mr.. ED1ToR: Your article, showing
in such an indisputable way, that the
people of Minnesota are paying
freight and passenger charges onrail-
roads to pay interest on $4,000 a
mile when the real cost is about S.
600 to $1,000 to build, are creating
a great sensation in Southern Min
nesota. Go ahead with the good
work. The people have learned more
from your paper in one month, than
they did in ten years from the old line
papers; the difference is you want
to help the people and they don't.
Now tell us how we are to get leg
islature that will cut down rates to a
proper figure. We know what has
made us poor. Tell us now how to
get out of this trap we are in, and
you will be a benefactor indeed.

The Alliance meeting held in the

At Howard, the meeting last even

LARGE SAVING IN PRICE OF COAL.

Mr.. j. c. Mcknight, president Of
the Adrian, Mobiles County, Alliance,
writes very encouragingly Of the do
ings of his alliance He says:
eve are but recently organized,
but are increasingi in numbers rapidly
and believe and hope the movement
has come to stay. We began effec-
tive operations here by bringing seven
car loads of coal, which we furnished
to our members at cost on track
with only Is cts. per ton added to
cover shortage and expense Of hand
ling. This has brought dealers down
from $50 to $500 per ton. We
realize that there are great questions
to handle which can only be proper
ly handled through organizations
all over the state"
This is the right spirit. The
Adrian Alliance has arranged for a
large meeting Dec. 21st, and the
State Lecturer is trying to arrange
to have a speaker attend it on behalf
OF the State Alliance.

left here on July 9th under sealed

both annexed to the British dominions
with the usual formalities. These two
islands are twenty miles apart, and are
supposed to be on the route of one of the

Starbuck, Penrhyn and other islands
were also visited; and the weather was
most propitious during the cruise which
seems to have been for the purpose of
the aunexations mentioned.
While at Humphreys Island. the

and afterwards, on August Goth, visited
the scene of the wreck on Starbuck isl
and, where she fired guns in hopes of
finding missing boat in which were
Captain Pye and eight of the crew. The

in, and the foretopmast gone; but the
