That Mr.. Donnelly be made the chair
man OF that committee, and then.
following up this organization, that
each Congressional District have
their district committee to act in
harmony with this state committee.

the remaining districts) the nomina-
tions of good men, pledged to our
principles, for Congress, let each Con-
gressional District call convention
through the Alliances, and put up a.
man that they can consistently vote
for. Following this, there should be
a Senatorial District Committee to-
see that each Senatorial District had
men on it's tickets that would repre-

in our own state.

every true alliance man and X. of L.
man in this state will take hold of
this matter like men-men who un-
der the present state of affairs can
see nothing in the future for their off

age. Why not move in this matter
as we would if a foreign enemy were

committee. And they have right
to hesitate.
The Bankers Association would

EDITOR GREAT WEST:
have thought that there ought to
be something done on the part of the
loyal alliances ever since the conven-
tions. Now what that ought to be
in my opinion is we ought to appoint
a committee of our own, and as our
Marietta friend saws, take the wind
out OF their sails, and be ready to
whip them next January. It is not
right to let them wreck our cause be-

hat a very large majority of the
armers will be with us.

As to Mr.. Warren, we have unim--

put on his apparent friendship for

The feeling against Lathrop in his
