To the Reform Press.

A meeting Of the members Of the Re-
form Press association is hereby called
at Wichita, June 13, at 3 o'clock p. m.
This is the day before the Seventh con-
gressional district convention OF the
Peoples party, which will be followed
by the state convention. We cannot too
strongly urge upon the editors OF reform
papers, whether members Of the associa-
ton or not, the necessity of getting ready
for concentrated action in the campaign
before US, which promises to be the most
hardly fought and blttereSt in the annals
Of our state. On the reform press de-
pends the success or defeat OF the peo-
ple's cause; personal differences and
spltes must be laid aside, and shoulder to
shoulder must we stand to cope with the
press subsidized and owned by the
money power. Then, we say, let every
paper be represented that Is with US; let
us counsel together and act In concert
In our work, for there never was q truism
uttered that would apply to any organic
alton more than the reform press.
"Unlted we stand, divided we fall" We
need auxiliary sheets and ready print
that we can tie to through the campaign.
We need more brotherly love and less
contention, and with this end in view,
every brother and sister who expects to
fight with US should become q member
of the Reform Press, and meet with US
at Wichita on the above date.
