to me ?"
 The corpulent, middle-aged butler at High Athelston, who had made an unusu- al exertion for Lima, told her that Miss Oastillain's card had been especially sent to Miss Chester and then, hoping she fully appreciated tho compliment he had paid her by bringing it himself, backed slowly from Lady Athelston's boudoir, where the girl sat arranging countless and many-colored diamonds of satin for the cushions which Lady Athelston de- lighted to make.
 "Mariorie Castillain,"
 Lima read the words on the card as she arose. "Some message for Lady Athel- ston, I suppose, which she will not trust to servant. But I wonder she even knew my name."
 And, as Lima said 1t, walking slowly down the wide stairs, flush spread over the delicate face to which the pallor was 50 much more natural than the bloom.
 Al she entered the first drawing room. @ lady came forward from one of the windows with her hand outstretched There was something in the first meet ing of these two girls which made them feel that it was not quite an ordinary meeting, though neither understood what this something was. Each waa anxious to read the nature of the other. yet there was no curiosity, no inquisitive- ness. On the one aide there was frank ness, yet no patronage on the other, q drinking Gilenoe that was not timidity on the one, 6 gay hghtness, yet no flip Ranoy; on the other, an esrnestnesa and what was written there, they were reed at once. l Miss Oastilla1n's great eyes took in 1inA's nature at glance and Lina knew in after years that her first ina pressioa of Marjorie Castillain had been true and exact. The two, without bs. ing widely different, were an artistic contrast to each other. Marjorie Gas. tllain was not . beautiful girl, yet there Vas wonderful grace in her tall aud

"Donnelly and Fish Men"

WYOMING, Mimi, Aug. 3rd, 1890.
EDITOR GREAT WEST:
Iwant to say few things to the
readers of the GREAT WEST. would
prefer that you editors would stop
your ears while l talk to those who
read your paper. I find that there is
a disposition on the part of some OF
the alliance men in the State to en-
deavor to stigmatize Others by call
ing them 'Donnelly and Fish men. -
Now, as regards the facts in the case,
there can be no stigma to it unless it
be that of honor, as shall endeavor
to show.
Now as regards Donnelly and Fish
No one can successfully deny that
they have worked for the best
interests of the Alliance. As regards
the motive that has prompted this
action no one has right to question
so long as all of their doings has
been for the advancement of those
prin ,iples that we call Fright" And
[ earnestly desire to know the truth
and have sought for it, and am still
seeking, and now, dear brother
granger, when you lead me to the facts
that DoDnelly or Fish have not
worked for the good of the alliance
will gratefully acknowledge my in.

proof than clipping from the CAS-
sociated Press" For find evidence
in any of them that they lie. AS for
instance, in the "St. Paul Globe. .
where they reported Mr.. Donnelly's
speech to the convention July 10th.
where they admitted that they had
been guilty of the grossest misrep-
resentation, and that without a
blush.

The GREAT WEST is doing a grand
work for this part of the country,
and l want to urge upon every read

farmers hand in their neighborhood.
l feel that the least that we can do
to show our appreciation of the fear
less and honest way in which it is
edited, is to pay one dollar year

The greatest trouble l find with the
GREAT WEST is that it does not come
often enough. / count the days more
between issues of the G.. W. than l
do about my work. l wish I could

1t is grand paper; and while this
is true it does not assume the right
to run the alliance, as some claim,
nor does it endeavor so to do.

farmers get wise enough to quit and
shake the Old Parties off and not let
them run their conventions They let

EDITOR GREAT WEST:
Many counties are talking indepen-

call for the Chairmen of the county
committees to meet in st. Paul and
form a State Central Committee, not
to antagonize the one now in the
field, but to do all in their power for
political success; this delay in active
work is paralyzing our party. l am
continually asked, on all sides; what
is the State Committee doing? are
we going to have speakers in the
field? etc. II. A. SWAIN.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-09-12

The prevailing tone Of the meeting
outside the Alliance men was pat
termed after Harrison's annual adj
dress, which said: "The country is in
a state of peace and prosperity
Wallace, OF the Iowa Homestead,
said his experience was that any
farmer who attended to business,
was sober, Industrious and economi-
cal, succeeded" and two thirds the
congress appeared to agree with
him. So, We disconnected, poverty
stricken granger, the Homestead
says you are either inattentive, in
temperate, lazy, or a spendthrift.
How do you like the picture? Many
of them claimed that mortgage in
debtedness was decreasing among
the farmers and that they were gen
orally satisfied and contented.
Oh! l am glad | attended the
meeting, l learned SO many things
and had so many errors corrected. l
trust that the impecunious hay-seed
will be heard from no more. If you
are not prosperous it is your own
fault-the National Farmers Con-
gress says so, or some OF it's members
do.

EDITOR GREAT WEST:
[ have been reading your paper
with great interest this summer and l
perhaps like a great many others do,
think we would like to help you more
in this mighty cause, but while our
will is strong our pocket books are
weak, and our enemies know this too
WELL But the alliance is becoming a
cancer in the body of the monopolies,
trusts, combines, land sharks, bood-
lers and all other public plunderers,
and they are beginning to realize it
most emphatically. And they are en-
ploying every means under heaven
known to men to kill the alliance.
We have got to get some men that
have higher ambition then to obtain
boodle-money to run this alliance
men who will stand by their principles
and love good name better than
gold.
The alliance in this town has not
done any active work for over two
years. They need some good speak
ers to come and awaken them to
their duty We have a charter and
eight charter members. We have
never paid any money to Eric Olson.

Forty Dollar Ornament"

LAKE CITY, Sept. LIST, 1890.
EDITOR GREAT WEST:
l have been waiting patiently ever
since the publication OF Mr.. La
throp's accounts to see if any dis
crepancies existed aside from one in
our alliance. Allow me through your
valuable paper to inform that forty
dollar a month ornament of ours
that he has not given Lake City ALI
ance No. 1925 credit for 1926 CAPT
tation tax, sent June 18th, 1890.
1t seems to me that something
should be done about this wholesale
plundering of alliance funds.
1t is poor time to lock the barn
after the horse has been taken. Our
Alliance numbers about $50 men,

hang on to until we have some as
surance that we will be duly credited
with the same. G. CLARK,

EDITOR GREAT West:
In looking over the various alli-
ance numbers, find No. 75O omit
ted. This is the No. OF st. Vincent
Farmers Alliance, Of which / am
Secretary. I hold a receipt dated July
Sth, 1890, for $2.1O, semi-annual
tax, of the alliance.
I noticed where the numbers of the
alliance were given with their num-
bers and Secretary's name ETC., the
number there given for our charter
was 756. This is a mistake, as the
number marked on our charter is
$50.
I have not yet ascertained the
name and address of the new State
Secretary. Please let us know soon,
and oblige. WILLIAM J. FORD.
There is no new Secretary as yet
the old one is too good a friend OF
that delightful campaign committee
to resign.

EDITOR GREAT WEST:

EDITOR GREAT WEST:
| read recently that there were
eight farmers in the House of Rep
resentatives at Washington. Can it
be possible that the agricultural in
terests of this great country are
looked after by such a pitiful num-
Der? For how can banker, or a
lawyer, know what farmer needs
or why should he care?
| noticed that in Kansas the al l.
ance has notified both lawyers and
bankers not to "apply," for they
would support no ticket on which
they were nominated. Can you give
us the correct No. of members in the
House of Representatives and their
occupations before going there?
1t may enlighten us as to the
"Class" movement that they talk so
much about.
Facts speak louder than words.
