Return.

The editor and business manager
of the GREAT WEST returned Tues
day from their long trip to the
southern extremity OF Florida. The
return was not in time to fully sup
erintend this weeks paper. But next
week there will be full issue. We
are pleased to note that our subscrip-
ton list has grown and that the cor
respondents have been patient.
After three weeks rest, DR.. Fish is
improved in health, although per-
haps not to that extent hoped for.
Florida certainly is a delightful Sec
ton to "winter in.

Keep the Promises.

Time after time parties have '.swept
the country at election and gone to
Washington with the mistaken idea that
because the people put them on guard
the people gave them unlimited privi-
lege. What mistake! This assump-
ton led to policy of arrogance, selfish
ness and political folly and, rs result,
the party was swept out of Office as com
pletely as 1t had been swept in. This
has happened time after time and it will
happen again. The people demand re-
forms, and will gladly intrust their
cause to the party that seems to them
pure, loyal and honest; but they will
drop that party like hot potato if they
find the same old mean, bigoted, tyran-
nical spirit that has made them despise
the old parties. The farmers movement
promises much for America. Let us not
let it all end in promise. Let it be built
on principles so fair, broad and strong
that all lovers of liberty will be attract
ed to it.-Rural New Yorker.

To Fix the Boards

Judge PETER, of Topeka, said to a cor
respondent Of The Kansas City Times:
"The peoples movement is pledged in its
platform in the railroad commissioner
question. The board will either be abol-
ished entirely and tho matters brought
before it settled in the legislature or a
new board to be elected by the people
provided for. The commissioners will in
all probability be elected by the people
and their powers extended. The state
board OF agriculture has never been run
to suit the farmers. It has been nothing
more nor less than an advertising medi-
u I, to get people into the state, and after
the immigrant arrives nothing is done
for his benefit. This board will be re-
modelled. The redemption of home
steads sold under execution is another
matter of importance. Interest rates
are TAR too high, and the legislature will
taee-s turnat reducing them"

Washington Irvins's Christmas


No one had a greater appreciation
of the beauties and joys Of Yuletide
than that gentle American word
painter, Washington Irving, whose
name should be dear to every Ameri-
cans heart. In his sketch Book he
quotes from an old, old English writ
er as follows:
"Now trees their leafy hats do bare
To reverence Winters silver hair:
A handsome hostess, merry host,
A pot of ale and now toast,
Tobacco and a good coal fire,
Are things this season doth re-
quire."
Who can forget this Chistmas sketch
es of Bracebridge Hall? During that
delightful Yuletide tour through
Yorkshire, England, Irving had to
travel by stage coach. He did not
enjoy the comforts of railway travel
now found in the highest degree on
Saint Paul & Duluth Railroad, better
known as the Duluth Short Line. it
being the shortest and most popular
route between the Twin Cities and
Duluth and West Superior. Fine
equipment, convenient scedules, quick
trains and close connections. Infor-

A Shameful Trick.

We learn that Eric Olson is telling
the members of the Alliance, wherever
he goes, that the annual meeting will
not be held Dec. 3Oth, but it will be
postponed until some time in Febru-
airy. This is done to keep away
members who might not vote as Eric
wants them to. There is nothing in
his statement. The annual meeting
will be held Dec. 3Oth without fail:
and it promises to be, by all odds,
the largest alliance meeting ever held
in the Northwest. The farmers are
coming up en- masse to bury their
prosecutors so deep that they will
never trouble them again. They
propose to obtain harmony by get
ting clear OF Albert Scheffer' g. Heckla-
Insurance-C ompany's hirelings.

Notice..

Notice is hereby given: That the
annual meeting OF the Todd County
Farmers Alliance will be held
in the Village OF Long Prairie
Todd County, State OF Minnesota,
Saturday the 9th day of December,
1890, at l o'clock P. NJ, for the cleo
ton of President, Vice President,
Secretary, Treasurer and Lecturer
officials for the ensuing year, and
electing one delegate and one alter
nate to the annual meeting of the
Minnesota State Farmers Alliance
to be held in st. Paul, Dec. 80, 1890.
Each subordinate alliance is entitled
to three delegates and one to the
state meeting. c. F. BoHALL,,
President Todd County Farmers
Alliance.

Mr.. Owen, late candidate on the
alliance ticket for governor, is not
only opposed to radical legislation
and not able to fulfill pledges when
elected-but comes out against the
subtreasury bill. The subtreasury
bill is the point upon which the Ma
tional Farmers Alliance and Indus
trial Union directs it's full force. 1t
demands currency based on crops,
andgovernment storehouses for crops
to the end that grain gambling
may be wholly prevented. We can
say this for the farmers of Minnesota
that they will, in general, take d.
rect issue with their former candidate
on this measure.

EDITOR GREAT WEST:

EDITOR GREAT WEST:
At a meeting held in Town of Free
land, Lac qui Parle County, Mimi,
December 18th, 1890 the following
was unanimously adopted:
RESOLVED, That we members OF
the Farmers Alliance of the town OF
Freeland donate 25 cents each to DR..
Fish to help you to clear up the re-
markable Lathrop scheme. We hope
you are able to show the Farmers
Alliance and the world that you are
true and honest and we shall stand
by you.
RESOLVED that a copy of the above
resolution be sent to the GREAT
West. A. J.HAUGEN.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-12-19

Mr.. s. M. Owen has been suggested
as q president Of the Alliance. Per-
haps, if Mr.. Owen would join the Al
lance, and had been eligible for the
position months ago-or years ago
perhaps then he would have been q
very available candidate. There has
always been one sore spot on our
heart regarding Mr.. Owen, and that
was when this office put in $114 solid
cash to distribute the great 'sDonnel-
" Broadside" last year, we offered
Mr.. Owen Is, 1000 copies free, to mail
with the Farm, Stock & Home. Mr..
Owen declined, although 200 party
papers in the state accepted the offer.
In that broadside was a very fine no
tice of the F., Sc II. Mr.. Owen new
er even quoted from that powerful
document. Still all this is easily
overlooked. 1t did not then. seem as
though so mighty a revolution was
near. Mr.. o. even declined a nomina-
ton for governor as late as last May,
from the Alliance forces. No, the
past has passed-let kindly oblivion
bury it-and all hands take hold of
the wheel to roll in a more suspicious
future. Mr.. Donnelly's shoulders
have been at that wheel for many
years.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-12-19

But one issue of the G. w. can now
appear before the state meeting on
the 3Oth. On this account-and be-
cause OF the "write-up" OF our recent
Journey to the south-we will not be-
gin the Documents until after the
State Meeting. Next week, however,
we will give schedule OF the same,
so that our readers may see what is
coming.
At the State Meeting it is our de-
sire to present to the farmers,
through special committee, some
recently developed facts in reference
to grain transportation. It is this
practical development recently
brought to our notice that divorces
our attention largely from alliance
politics. We hope, however, that Mr..
Donnelly may be elected president,
feeling that the reforms to be sug-
gested can only be brought about by
the aid of honest alliance officials.

There is an impression prevailing
that the Alliance Purchasing Agency
and the Alliance Elevator Company
are one and the same. Such is not
the case. They are wholly distinct
institutions. Although Mr.. CORTLAND
Skinner, temporarily in charge OF the
Elevator Co. during Mr.. Loucks'
absence, is also manager OF the Pur-
chasing Agency, there is no official or
financial connection between the two.
Mr.. Loucks will probably soon return
and resume his work in the elevator
office. Mr.. Skinner will then be able
to devote his whole time to the Pur-
chasing Agency.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-12-19

The Appleton Press, together with
the old party papers, republishes Mr..
Ovens call for moderate legislation,
or no legislation, on our great griev-
ances-with unqualified approval.
We would suggest that approval of
this kind is undesirable. Again, if Mr..
Owen gives us SO many daily paper
columns of advice why does he not
Join the alliance. We have suggested
many times that the candidate of the
alliance should be a member of the
organization!
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-12-19

In answer to q question from Lin
coin county we would say that as we
understood the question only those
members of q sub-alliance who have
paid up their dues can participate in
the election of q delegate to the
State Convention; nor can the sub
alliance be represented on the floor
of the convention unless it's dues are
first paid up. 1t is impossible to
run the machinery of the Alliance
without axle-grease. OF course it
does not follow that if there are so
members of a sub-alliance and ma
jority OF them have not paid their
dues that the others shall be de-
prived of their right to be represen-
ted in the State Convention. What
We mean is that the men who elect
the delegate must be members Gin
good standing and they cannot be
that if they have not paid their dues.
And a sub-alliance that has not paid
the dues for at least seven members
cannot have a member on the floor
OF the convention. 1t must either
pay them to the Secretary of the
State Alliance or use them in paying
the expenses of their delegate.

Correspondence.

DR.. Frain is now engaged in run
ming through the business mail of
over a thousand letters, and the edi-
tor will publish at least two entire
pages of correspondence next week.
We thank our friends most warmly
for their generous interest, and trust
that the GREAT WEST may now take
on a new vigor and exercise a new
power.
AS for the men who think they in
jure the G. W. by swapping at it-let
them wag on-if it amuses them.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-12-19

A great many are asking us what
we think of the speakership in the
state legislature. We have a hope
born of confidence in a mainland
that is that our friend E. T. Champlin,
of Garden City, will beelected. Hell a
man whom we will trust for the posi-
ton. How about Furlong? Well,
let the history OF the Alliance for two
years and of the Austin Insurance
Co., and of the committee on rail-
roads at the last session-let these
answer. 1t is enough that Furlong is
the candidate of Mr.. Albert Scheffer.

Make No Mistake.

It will require more time and much
analysis to determine satisfactorily Just
what part the farmer took on election
day in discomfting all the political
prophets. His view is about as follows:
He has not yet been given full credit,
north or south, east or west, for the po-
tency of his influence and vote in the re-
cent campaign. He accomplished far
more within the two parties than has
been made to appear. He has toppled
dominant parties from control in several
states; he has made sure of Il respecta-
BILE farmer representation in both houses
of the next congress; but that is all of
less significance than the local revolu-
tions he has wrought in thousand mi
nor political districts where change of
control has come with all the unexpect-
edness of an earthquake.
It can hardly be said broadly that one
party has gained or suffered more than
the other; but one thing the farmers
movement has proclaimed thunderingly,
namely, the sheet anchor, the chief re-
lance of each party in the agricultural
vote, broke away on the 4th of Novem-
Der. The Republicans begin to realize
this; the Democrats have not done so
yet. It happened that the revolt took
the form of tremendous Democratic
victory. The measure of Democratic
success was as great surprise to the
victors as to the defeated. But the di-
recto,s of all the branches of the farm
ers' movement declare that the Demo-
Gratis will make the greatest mistake of
their lives if they interpret the result as
their own distinct party rriumph.-New

ill, the time came for us to take a
vacation-and it was taken with

be said that the editor is wholly re-

work. The return was made Tues
day of this week, at 7:1O a. m, and

charged on with energy. Now for
another campaign.

We learn, from a perfectly reliable
source, that the Scheffer-Sprague-
Hall-Lathrop gang propose, if they
get control OF the annual meeting, to
elect John Lathrop Secretary, or,
failing in that they propose to fall
back on Rev. Albert Warren, late
Secretary Of the late gorgeous Cam
paign Committee. John first, be-
cause John, like Hall, needs a vim
dication; and then Albert.

WELL WORTH TRYING
re ~Experiment' 81 Farmers Contzol1ing
law Making Bodies.


re sExperimenti' u FARMERS Contxolline
LAw Making Bodies.
For the first time that the Farmer1
Alliances Of this country have put in an
appearance as distinctive political fac
tor in an important general election, they
have made q remarkable showing, espe-
cially in Nebraska, Georgia, Minnesota,
Illinois, and most notably Of all in Kan
sas, where their organization seems to
have been far more effective and COM
pact than that Of the trained politicians
Of the old parties.
A striking illustration Of the alacrity
and energy with which they have forged
to the front is also observable in Mis-
souri,, where of the legislature elect, con-
sisting of eighteen state senators and
40 members of the house, fully two
thirds are farmers, a greater proportion
perhaps than was ever indicated before
in any legislative body. The legal pro-
fession is usually present in large force,
but in the Missouri house of representa-
tives there are not more than eighteen
or twenty lawyers all told.
The long standing theory that by
reason of their professional education
and experience lawyers were, of all
classes of citizens, best fitted for the
making of laws is thus heavily discount
ed. At least the new and advanced idea
seems to have taken possession of the
public mind that the citizens who stand
most in need of remedial legislation and
whose claim is that their interests have
been most neglected on the floors of con-
gress and in their state legislatures, are
best qualified to determine what their
needs require and what should be done
for the general amelioration of their
condition.
Whether it is wise to put legislative
control in the hands of any particular
class is open to question. It will GER
tainly be open to grave objection if class
legislation prove to he the result. But
the experiment. is well worth trying and
the outcome in Georgia, Kansas, Mis-
souri, and elsewhere will be watched
with good deal of interest. It cannot
be doubted that popular sympathy is
with the farmers for the most part, and
it is to be hoped that they will succeed
in meeting the new responsibilities that
they have assumed as becomes good
citizens, not only alert to their own pro-
lection, but broad minded and sagacious
enough to consult the general welfare at
the same time and avoid mistakes that
might serve rather to aggravate than to
relieve the situation. Particularly de-
sirable is it, as they value their hopes of
future prosperity and the permanence of
their civil liberties, that they steer clear
Of visionary panaceas for the ills they
bear.-Washington Post.
