that Mr.. Stromberg had been invited
to the meeting for the especial pur-
pose OF giving us the information
which would show up the mistakes
and errors which had been made, cit
ing instances. He insisted strongly
and persistently upon Mr.. Strom-
berg's presentation of the matter.
DR.. Fish asked if the committee
had requested Mr.. Stromberg's pres
ence for that or any purpose.
The chair stated that he himself
invited Mr.. S. to be present, and Mr..
Hall also stated that he had done
so.
DR.. Fish spoke highly of Mr.. Stroni-
berg, but insisted that no one had a
right to enter upon ADMINISTRATION
until invited by the committee. The
majority OF the committee thought
so too, and we're in favor of making
a complete examination, including
the getting of all accounts as called
for in the resolutions Of DR.. Fish.
Mr.. Hall insisted, then, that the
Chair, Mr.. O. H. Page, should con-
duct the correspondence Issuing cir
culars, etc. and not the secretary.
The Secretary, DR.. Fish, had been
made Sec'y on the motion of r. J.
Hall himself, and the Sec'y resisted
the insult, which had reached such
personalities on the part of Mr.. Hall
that the chair stopped him. The
committee sustained DR.. Fish.
Seeing that three of the five on the
committee, Mr.. Butler, of Renville,
Mr.. Mooney Of Yellow Medicine, and
Fish of Ramsey, spoke strongly in
favor Of the resolutions and q COM
plete examination of the records,
Hall then suddenly turned his course
and insisted that the committee
show up it's authority to proceed.
The resolutions under which the
committee acted were not in the DOS
session OF any member. Upon the re-
quest of the committee, and cordial
" so of DR.. Fish, Mr.. Stromberg
went out to get copy of the resolu-
lions. When he returned he stated
chat he could not find them. He and
DR.. Fish harmoniously and kindly
consulted as to their probably where
abouts. Mr.. Page, the chairman,
hen went to the Merchants Hotel,
stating that he thought he could
ind them. He returned without
hem.
1t was now getting late. Two of
he members had to depart on
$40 p. m. train. The afternoon from
30 to 5 O'Clock had been wasted.
dr. Stromberg wished to go and at
end the Executive Committee meet
ng, and he and DR.. Fish talked
PLEASANTLY OF the matter, shook
lands cordially, we stating that we
hould be very glad indeed to get his
assistance when we reached the mat
er OF the charters; and Mr.. s. stated
hat he would be glad to come. The
'artlng was more cordial than at
ny time during the past few
nonths.

Legislative Reports.

I
A large number of alliance men,
bers came to us during the conven-
ton and asked us to do two things:
FIRsT.-Publish a ssmi-weekly edi-
ton of the G.. W. during the legisla-
ture.
SEcoND.-To keep two stenograph-
ers there to take verbatim reports OF
each house.
AS to the first we stated that ve
would 40 30 if the farmers would pro-
vide the expense. It costs about ono
hundred dollars an issue for the pa-
per and presswork of the GREAT
WEST ready for mailing, and COM
position mailing etc., amount to one
hundred more. So our increased ex-
pense would be 0ver$2OO week. Our
expenses aow are nearly $1,000 q
month. The legislature met but few
days after the convention, and no
money was provided, although the
gentlemen stated that something
would be done. 1t is impossible for
US to bear the expense alone-or en-
ter the field for special subscriptions.
AS to the second proposition, we
partially engaged stenographer to
report the proceeding in one house
at IS a day, but owing to un-
certainties in the matter and q call
to go east, we have made arrange
ments with a journalist to assist US.
and will besides keep a member of
the GREAT WEST force on the ground
all the time.
1t would be impossible to report
all the proceedings of six days in a
weekly paper! It would fill a daily
paper nearly full.
We will take up the issues of i'm
portance and discuss them, and give
reports of votes taken, etc., very full
~.
Will do the very best we can to
satisfy our readers in this respect.

There's a man in this state who ia
composed wholly of gall and worm
wood. He says DR.. Fish went to the
Ocala Convention of the N. FAIL
U. without credentials-that he
showed himself in. Now that man
ought to be elected president of the
Academy of Liars. Wewere q member
OF that order, and properly creden-
tailed by the I. US of Minnesota. and
the credentials were received and act
ed upon with great courtesy.

Inc statement that the report of

Mr.. R. J. Hall appeared before the
Executive Committee last Saturday.
and asked to be placed on the Legis-

discussed the matter and thought it
best to put on men wholly free from

Notice From the State Lecturer.

TO ALL COUNTY AND sUB-ALLIANCEs
The State Lecturer will be unable
to issue the commissions for 1891
until the last of January, as new ones
are. being printed and the process
takes some time.
Deputy state lecturers, also those
for congressional and judicial dis
tricts, holding commissions from Mr..
Donnelly during the past year will
continue to hold their commissions
and carry out the work until Feb.
LIST, 1891, unless notified to the con-
trary. After that date only those
will continue who receive the new
commissions for 1891.
It is however the intention of the
present state lecturer to disturb ex-
listing arrangements as little as pos
Isible and changes will only be made
where some reason exists for such &C.
ton; addition to the force will how
ever be made wherever advisable.
The county and deputy county lee
turers are elected by the county al
lance and confirmed by the state lee
turer.
Several counties have reported
their selection for 1891, and all are
requested to notify the state lecturer,
through the secretary OF the county
alliance, whether they have retained
their present lecturers or elected new
ones.
In cases of counties which have not
yet held any county meeting, sincs
the beginning of the present year,
the lecturer of the past year will con-
tnue the work until such a meeting
is held and county and deputy lee
turers elected. 80
The state lecturer prefers to make
no appointments of county or
deputy county lecturers on her own
responsibility; such lecturers should
be elected at the county meeting.
In counties where sub-alliances are
organized but no county alliance yet
formed, the state lecturer would be
glad to receive recommendations
from the sub-alliances in regard to
lecturers or organizers.
1t is the intention to employ all
available talent in the lecture field.
We cannot have too many workers
in the good cause and any alliance
member or alliance knowing of good
speakers who are favorable to our
cause will confer favor by bringing
such to the attention of the state
ecturer.
In entering their important field of
york the state lecturer will be glad
10 receive any suggestion that may
eem helpful and hopes for the hear
lest good will and earnest co-opera-
ion OF all engaged in this branch of
he work.
All communications should be adj
lressed to 20 E. 7th St. Paul, MINI.

The LEGISLATURE adjourned on
Monday, and sigh OF relief went up
from the entire state. Saturday was
the last day for the consideration OF
bills, and the sessions in both houses
were prolonged until the dawn of
Sunday morning The legislators
have been SO extremely busy during
the nearly four months session that
their labors had to encroach upon
the Lords day. There was perfect
scramble by the members during the
last few days to get fayorite bills
through, and yet more than 700
bills. many OF them important too,
failed to pass owing to lack of time.
Ii the Legislature had not spent the
early part of the session in useless
talk, this condition OF things would
not have been. 1t is disgraceful to
see the slip-shod manner in which
bills are rushed through at the last
moment.

PERHAPS the most important bill
passed by the legislature is the
Australian election law. The pro-
vision requiring voters to indicate
by a mark each OF the different can
didates voted for, is, we think, a good
one. This is the provision that the
Democrats fought 80 desperately
against. BY this method the voter
must scrutinize each candidate on
the ticket, and hence requires the ex-
ercise OF greater intelligence than by
the method OF marking the head OF
the ticket only, to indicate a straight
ballot.
