To those who still think that we
should support the state ticket with
more enthusiasm, we will say, plain
ily, that the wretched botch laade by
Hall in the selection of a campaign
committee, OF an organ Daily News), :,
of methods OF work, have rendered it
absolutely Impossible for us to enter
the field vigorously. At any mOsaent
when we are permitted to work with
a Campaign Committee OF genuine
alliance men we will be glad to throw
our whole efforts into the great
work, 1t is impossible for us to do
SO now-in fact we have been private
ly and publicly snubbed and rebuked
at every step. At the same time the

can honorably re-enter the field it

Mr.. L&throp Removed.

After a warfare in the Committee
lasting three or four days-.or even
that many weeks-Mr. Donnelly sue
ceeded in getting Lathrop removed
from the Secretaryship. The most
remarkable proceeding ever held IN a
like body accompanied this step
Hall and Furlong remaining by him
to the last, The most outrageous
action-and one that calls for sym
pathy for the old man-is that the
Campaign Committee, at the last
moment, seeing that his fate was
sealed, and notwithstanding that
lLathrop and Hall crea ted them, went
back on the old man at the Mer-
chants. They were partners in
iniuuity-and turned on him at the
very moment when he needed their
help and sympathy. Brandborg, OF
Otter Tail, worked to save him and
then turned and stung him. We
write this after midnight, Thursday
morning, holding the press: full par
ticulars next week Lathrop was
sinned against was most shame
fully waylaid and madethe scapegoat
for the Hall-Sprague infamy-Hall
himself having to disgorge $65 of the
funds. We have sympathy for the
old man-but contempt for those
who used him to their profit.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-09-12

Are you out in the field yet work
ing for your county and legislative
ticket? Do not delay If you can
not send money to aid the state
ticket to such a campaign committee
use it in your local conflict. Work
hard. Your cause is the cause of
humanity. If we cannot take two
steps forward, take one. Take no
step backward. Sever now and for
ever, your party ties. Be ye Inde-
pendent.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-09-12

The financial difficulties of the Sec
retary are growing deeper and deeper.
We do not know what to say about
Mr.. Owens standing by Lathrop.
Mr.. L. has not yet made good his
SIP, to say nothing of the one or
two hundred dollars which have ap-
peared since. Mr.. Hall turned .ovel
the money which he had taken, and
thus Strengthened himself in a
measure. Later.-The money wss
raised and Mr.. Lathrop paid the
$112.

Mr.. Hall goes out on another
junket to New York and New jersey
three'men had to take a letter to the
machinists to see about the twine
machinery. Thegovernor don't seem
to have given up faith in Hall. Why
don't some OF the party press dis
cover symptoms of Merriamism in
Hall as well as inDonnelly? Because
Donnelly don't get the plums and
Hall does!
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-09-12

We regret to observe that all the
time at the recent meeting Of the cam
p@ign committee was taken up with
telling stories, cracking poor wit on
the GREAT WEST; firing squibs at
Mr. DonnelIy, and reading some dog
gerd verse about this poor paper.
That evening two of them were tip
pling tight. Grave men these, to
part the shadows which hang over
the lives and fortunes of this genera
tion. The Gospel of Humanity has
become the breath of ribaldry and
shame!
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-09-12

You do not need to mistake the
temper of the GREAT WEST. 1t is
square toed and yard wide. II the
DEVILS angels were to creep into
heaven we should say "put them
out''-don't desert heaven your
selves. Above all, work like giants

gressmen!

USELESS EFFORTS.
Inssnity or Dishonor.

The course pursued by the Hall
faction can be little less than dishon-
or or insanity. Mr.. Donnelly, and
others, including the GREAT WEST,
Notwithstanding the columns of
abuse injected into the Globe, Times,
and other party papers, have been
anxious to devote their full energies
to the independent movement.
At last Mr.. Donnelly consented to
undertake the formation OF an ad-
ditiOnal committee to enter the field, :,
representing the radical men in the
alliance, and as we claim, three
fourths of the alliance men of the
state He brought the matter be-
lore the Executive Comy ittee. The
plan embraced the organization OF a
committee of respectable men, ten
from the radical wing and five from
the others; and as Hall, the presi-
dent, was bitter Scheffer hireling it
was urged that DIR. Fish be made Sec
retary of the Executive Committee,
making weekly reports OF the finan-
ces, situation, etc, in the GREAT
WEST.
DR.. Fish was asked if he would
take the Secretaryship, ''bury the
hatchet" completely-and put in all
his energy to elect t'the ticket and Or
ganize his friends in the state He
said that he would do anything
called upon. He also went before the
committee as Representing a con-
stituency of Is, 600 farmers anxious
to see the GREAT WEST in it's proper
attitude-that 700 alliances seemed
almost as his children
But it was all in vain. Hall shout
ed and declaimed that if DR.. Fish
were put in the Executive Committee
he should instantly resign, ETC., ETC.,
etc. He stated that DR.. Frain would
be no better. He simply proposed to
ruin the cause and he is doing it. The
vote on the movement stood:
YEs.-Donnelly, Lister, Poore.
No.-Han, Hompe, Biorge, Fur
long, Stromberg.
Mr.. Donnelly quietly, and without
a word withdrew from theroom, and
the three or four days session came
speedily to a close.
The committee now proposes to
turnover what money is aeft to that
precious campaign consmittee. Ut
course this money belongs to the alli-
ances, and they do so without justifi
catiOn
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-09-12

A "Rey, Muller" made the Albert
Lea meeting lively by jumping on to
Dr.. Fish, comparing him to Benedict
Arnold. Now we will show Mr..
"Rev." Muller a sample of the Christ
spirit by refraining from making any
remarks about this Baptist Clergy
man."

Keep up organizaing alliances
friends. Of course we regret that we
are not with you in more iactive
work. All the agencies OF the pluto
Gratis are at present at work against
us, and their hired agents are seeking
the columns of the party press ito de-
fame and abuse us. But never mind
we are with you just the same on
every principle of the alliance We
shall fight on this line-and never
give up until conquered with feet to
the foe. Organize. Vote faithfully.
Look into your conscience as a mir
ror. Remember that the hand of
God is in human destiny and he will
guide you out OF the wilderness.
Keep up your organization. Be true
to yourselves. Although we fight
the betrayers OF our cause we do not
want you to vote the old party
tickets. Don't do it. Fight corrup-
tion whenever you find it, but stand
by every worthy nominee.

The campaign committee has TAX
zen the warning OF the GREAT WEST
and reduced the name of the party to
three words.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-09-12

We have almost every day letters
asking OF the situation of the Inde
pendent ticket throughout the state
Well, it is not as it should be, though
a very large vote is going to he cast
therefor. The fact is, the cause is be-
ing miserably managed at st. Paul.
If the men il, control OF the alliance
did not intend to wreck the alliance
they acted as though they did. We
believe that most of the alliance
members will be true to the independ-
ent movement, and a large vote will
come from outside.
There IS but one drawback-and
thatis the almost villainous manage
ment here. The campaign is practi-
cally in Mr.. Scheffer's hands-in fact
it is wholly so. But we hope for i'm
provement the present and coming
months. Do not let the villainy of
the st. Paul gang break up the
movement. Once severed from the
old parties, remain so-like true men.

A Man Who Knows All About Famous
 London Scandals-WIl Keep quiet
 for Moaey.
 SEATTLE, Wash, March 9.-Charles B Hammond, the man who knows moro than anybody else about the famous London scandals, is being cut of in his supply of blood money and he objects. He said to-day that unless certain people prominent in Lon- don kept faith with him and oabled money to him by Tuesday of this week he would say something then that would place them in very bad light. Tae words of Hammond were a follows:
 "The time for denials from one side and the other is past, and if Lord Huston and MT. Hugh Wsglen knew what was to their inter- est they would communicate immediately by cable to person known to them by initial 'O' and whose present residence Is No. 2281& Front street, Seattle. Hugh Weglen is the son of man who occupies an exceptional position in the financial world of the British capital"
 It Is observed from the remarks that Ham, mond wants money and also that whatever he may have said heretofore about his not being the man who kept notorious house on Clevaland street was untrue. He has torn of all semblance of 6 mask and now promises to reveal many other men in high station who were cuAtomers at his house of crime. Seattle is undoubtedly the most in- teresting place in the United States just now to certain men on Downing street, London, end the end is not yet.

Their feet, hands and tongues became swollen and they lay in the dory and prayed for death to relieve their sufferings. They had three raw fish in the dory which they tried to eat, but were made sick. They became delirious and about made up their minds to jump overheard and end their sufferings. When the Blanche rescued them they could not have survived much longer. During the time they were astray the weather was very cold and Captain Frazier says the men must have had iron constitutions to endure tho ex- posture 50 long. They have somewhat recov. cred, but their hands and feet are badly swollen. They were rescued 150 miles from where they went astray.
