EDITOR GREAT WEST:
The alliance party OF Wyanett
have now a great interest about
business matters, and are talking of
building an elevator at Princeton;
but as we are not able to seek other
country markets. for our products, we
do not know whether it will pay or
not?
The alliance party are now a party
in politics, and expect to work for
the best of the whole, and not for the
benefit of a few. Why not now build
an elevator for the state? For it
would surely pay to see other coun-
tries for our surplus product, and
