The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-02-14

1t tells us what is being done in all
parts of the State for the good work.
1t is means of communication
and information that we have not
heretofore had, and that cannot be
obtained in any other paper In all
the meetings that I attend / advise
the farmers to subscribe for the
GREAT WEST. Truly yours,
r. J. HALL.

ED. GREAT VEST:
Enclosed find a dollar for one
years subscription for your red hot
advocate of farmers interests. You
seem to be about the right man in
the right place. The farmers of this
state have long needed such paper,
with just such an irrepressible editor
as DR.. Fish to run 1T. And may the
time be near when Minnesota farmers
shall demand that their party col
lars be taking off until they have re-
ceived their rights and received their
share of what they toll for. Now
do not believe there is an intelligent
farmer in the state but who knows
he does not get it under the present
state of affairs. Now while 1 do not
agree with the GREAT WEST in all
things I do most emphatically agree
that the farmers should give it a
most liberal support, for it is estab-
lished unquestionably in their inter-
ests. Yours, with kind regards,
M. F. GREEDY.

Ed. GREAT WEST:
You may soon expect my contribu-
ton in support of the GREAT WEST.
It's influence is felt in every locality
where it is introduced. 1t is doing
the work that other party organs
have refused to do, as policy, the
foundation OF the old parties, has
strictly forbidden that truth to the
slaves should be set forth.
[ am grieved to learn that the edi-
tor of the GREAT WEST thinks for q
moment that my efforts in advanc-
ing the cause was setting up the
the claim of superior knowledge in
affairs of monopoly generally. To
destroy any thought Of this nature
l freely acknowledge my inferiority
and desire to learn more from the
great organ that has cast the gaunt-
let into the arena of public strife, for
the laboring classes.
But seriously, Dr., will you give us
records OF events where there has
ever been in the past a party that
has become corrupt-that has puri-
fed itself. H. l.. BURGESS.
We want to shake both hands with
Mr.. Burgess. We know he is genuine
from crown to sole.
THE DRAMATIC PLAY IN PROGRESS.
February 4th, 1890.
EDITOR GREAT West:
An Alliance was formed here Jan,
4th, last, with Is members. At q
meeting held Jan 18th, 6 more mem.
bers joined the order. The officers
are: c. F. Norwood, President; T
M. Ostrom, Vice President; NJ. F.
Norwood, Treasurer; and J. E. John.
son, Secy. Prospect for more mem.
bers at the next meeting, which will
be Feb. 18th.
More and more interest is visible
among the farmers in regard to the
work SO nobly taken up by the
GREAT WEST, and hard utterances
are to be heard at anytime as to the
rough usage to which the Farmers
are subjected by the now so wide
spread plundering of Monopoly and
Trusts. We hope to see the GREAT
WEST sent out broad cast SO all
readers may get peep at the dra
matte play now going on all over the
country. Please send me some copies
for distribution at our next meeting
