Doing a Great Work.

The Torch OF Liberty, we'll known
stalwart journal OF Kansas has
the following tribute, for which we
thank them:
The editors OF the St. Paul GREAT
WEST are men who are doing great
work for the partisan-blind farmers
of the west. They have exposed the
corrupt methods of the wheat COM
bines, and Immediately wheat jumped
from 6Oc. to soc. a bushel, (which was
noted in the Torch at the time). after
the expose. This combine had been
making a clean steal OF zoe. a bushel
on wheat before the expose. The
statements of these gentlemen il, this
great Alliance movement which they
so ably represent, are trustworthy
and reliable. We call special atten-
ton to an article in this paper from
the G. w. entitled, ''The Lines are
Extended" Read it, fellow citizens,
pass it around, and then, if you are
not yet satisfied, go into the G. 0. T:
caucus and 'vote' er straight"-you'll
get all you've been voting for after a
while.

Excellent Advice.

Brethren must learn to dwell to-
gether in unity; but no man should
be afraid to attack wrong doing
even though he be accused OF seeking
to create dissention.. 1t is the dispo-
sition of fairly good men to passive
ly sanction wrong that enables de-
signing persons to creep up in high
places, and steer the entire body into
the ports OF the enemy. 1t is better
to create a ripple of discord when
you detect q man planning danger
Gus thing than to wait till the ma
turity of his plans and end the whole
business in general mouth to
mouth row. Monitor, st. Louis,
Mo.
If the Minnesota State Alliance had
taken this advice when the Sprague
schemes were first exposed last fall,
or even before the recent convention,
a great good would have been &C
complished.

Ex.-Sen. Van Wyck, the Nebraska
senator who was sent back to pri-
vate life because he refused to obey
the dictates of Wall Street, recently
made q glorious address to the al
liances of Nebraska. Therein he ut
tered the following faithful words:
'The grange did not fail of indie
pendent action, but because men who
were struggled, in assumed leader
ship, and from the inside plotted it's
destruction. The same tactics are
now being tried with the Alliance
There, Minnesota farmers, what do
you think of that? What do you
think of the horrible lies OF the Globe,
and News, and other daily papers
against the radical alliance element
What do you think of the party
press unanimously upholding the in
fanny of Hall and Sprague and his CO.
conspirators? Does one party usual
ly uphold and magnify their oppo-
nents! What do you think of the
bold assertions of the GREAT WEST,
and of the wrecked treasury-and OF
it's state committee?
The St. Paul Globe is very much
incensed at Mr.. Donnelly because
he insisted that Secretary Lathrop
should settle up his accounts and
turn over the money in his hands to
the Treasurer of the Alliance. What
has the Globe, or any other outside
party got to do about it, any how
Is it not MIR. Donnelly's duty, as a
member OF the Executive Committee
to see that the constitution of the
Alliance is obeyed, and the funds O.
the Alliance neither squandered MOI
stolen? If it be monumental mean
ness" as the Globe says, for Mr.
Donnelly to look after the business
OF the Alliance, in this way, the farm
ers OF this state will thank him for it
Any other course would end in the
death of the Alliance.
But why is this Democratic paper
so anxious to defend Lathrop's de.
falcatiOn.

A letter from New York says: New
York City Is tn have another gigantic
suspension bridge, A blll~authorizing
iis construction seross tia uads, n
River las heen passed by Congress,
sna ii is to bs completed within ten
years The reason why il was necas-
sary tor Congress to act in the matter
was that the bridge is to connect two
ditfereHt States New York and New
Jersey. The exact situation of the
proposed bridge has not yet been deter
milo upon, but il will probably
stretch from Hoboken TO l4th street.
When flushed it will be the largest
bridge in the world. Ii will be sus-
pended from four large cables, similar
to the East River bridge, each four
feet in diameter. There will be but
one span across the river, 1850 feet in
length, which is nearly twice as long
as that of the East River bridge Al
though the proportions are sigaRtic,
il is said that the construction will be
relatively less difficult than that of the
East River bridge or the vt. Louis
bridge. The new bridge will have
from six to ten railroad tracks, so that
all passengers and freight coming from
the West will isad directly in this city,
instead of first landing in jersey and
crossing The river by ferry. At thu
New York end will be large passcn-
ger station accommodating thirty
tracks. The anchorages on either side
OF the river will be larger than the
pyramids, and the total cost is esti-
mated al 100000,

The newspaper pull. say Bill Nye,
is souiethin. that makes men feel bad
II they don't get it. The groundwork
Of the ordinary newspaper pud consists
OF a moral character aud good bank

like mixing sherry cobblers and mint
juleps all through the Summer months
for customers and quenching your
own thirst with rain water Some
times man is looking for puff aud
don't yet il; then ne ssys the paper il

hands of 4 monopoly, and he would
stop subscribing if be did no. haye to

Writing newspaper puff 10 like
taking photograph Of homely
baby. If the photograph does not
represent Tho child with wings and
halos aud harps, it shows that the ar
list does not understand his business.
So it il with the Newspaper puff the
pulled does not stand out like bold
and fearless exponent of truth and
morality, 1t shows that the puffcr does
not understand human nature. 1t il

six million Cinnamon who were

about year ago @ese the cause of the
influenza epidemic recently prevalent

have the germ OF a similar sconrge at

following from the Winnemucca Silver
State:
The number OF dead animals along
the line OF the G. p. and along the
river bottom of the Hum boldt, is GER
tainly alarming, and, unless something
is done in the way of destroying them,
when the hot days of Summer months
arrive the stencil will be intoerable,
