EDITOR GREAT WEST:
1t would seem that a few who are
now holding, or who have held,
prominent positions in the Farmers
Alliance, are having nothing undone
to disorganize and destroy that
body. A large majority of farmers,
would come into the movement were
it not for the disunion that exists in
the executive control. How can
those who so fearlessly denounced
monopoly and Doodle in others,
themselves, at the first opportunity
be guilty of the same.
How men who would use every
method to cover and shield from JUS
tice, dishonesty, can command re-
spect is passing strange!
1t cannot last. The time will come
when honesty and justice will prevail,
and men shall be judged by their
good work and those found wanting
consigned to other places.
A meeting Of Big Stone Co. AL
lance is called for Oct. 9Th. l shall
try and be present and state the
facts of the case.
The principles and platform of the
Alliance l fully endorse, and believe
it to be the duty OF all members to
work and labor for it's support.
Have had the pleasure of hearing
S. M. Owens, Alliance candidate for
Gov, on Monday afternoon at the
Opera House, Graceville.
The meeting was not large as the
notice was short. Mr.. Owens occu-
pied the platform one hour and forty
minutes, and made quite an impress
sion. He is a fluent speaker and was
well supplied with facts and data
most of which have been published in
the GREAT WEST. sheet which no
farmer should be without.
