Letters are being received daily from
all parts of the state declaring allegiance
to the old Alliance party, and there is
no reason to doubt that in many of the
counties the Alliance will have more
votes than the Fish and Donnelly Peo-
pies party. Ex-Warden Stordock, of
Wilkin. is leading a formidable revolt
in Wilkin county, and in Grant, where
Owen had four out of every five votes,
all the Alliance voters are against the
Peoples party. s.
