Robbing the Farmers.

The GREAT WEST, the Alliance
paper published in st. Paul, has per-
sistently maintained during the past
year that the farmers were not re-
celvlng as much for their wheat as
they should, figuring on the basis of
prices in Liverpool, England, and the
cost OF transportation from north
western points to Liverpool. Ac-
cordlng to the figures of the GREAT
WEST the difference in the price Of
wheat in Liverpool and in the North.
west was fully twice as large as the
cost OF transportation, elevator
charges, Insurance and all items of
expense incurred in shipping wheat.
1t was plain that if the figures of the
GREAT WEST were accurate. there
was a big combination and steal in
the. shipment of wheat to foreign
markets. Many people doubt the ac-
ccuracy OF figures and statements
found IN Alliance newspapers, and
therefore the exposures made by the
GREAT WEST did not have the effect
upon public opinien that thew would
nave had coming from almost anv
other source. The St. Paul Pioneer
rress has lately given the matter a
thorough investigation, however.
and the result of it's investigation
appears in five-column editorial

Here's Another.

At the last meeting of Crooks ALI.
ance No. 984, Edward Bakken was
elected as delegate to the 3rd Con.
gressional convention at Pennington
and also to the peoples party state
convention at St. Paul, the 18th inst.
The following resolutions were
adopted by an unanimous vote.
Resolved, That this alliance of
Crooks, No. 9S4, denounces in the
strongest possible terms, the course
pursued by the old alliance cam
paign committee in calling a state
convention and we stjgmatize them
as disloyal to the best interests of the
alliance, and we consider them as
enemies to the cause of reform.
Resolved, That we, the Scandina-
VANS OF this alliance do resent the
insult to us and to all Scandlnavians
OF this state, conveyed in the state
ment by leading republicans of the
state that if Knute Nelson were nom
mated for Governor he would draw
all the Scandinavian vote irrespec-
tive of party. The time is past when
we will vote for any man simply be-
cause he is a Scandinavian. We in
tend to vote for men who represent
our principles no matter what ma
tionality they belong to.

ance are Scandinavians.

EDITOR GREAT WEST:
! Our alliance, No. 64S, held meet
ing last Saturday, June II, and re-
! solved in favor of peoples party
man for Judge, and condemned the
action of RED River Dalen'' in the
manner it reported our county con-
vention held May "a, and also the
standpoint it takes in other matters.
At a meeting OF our club some two
weeks ago, Editor Bydal was re-
quested to appear and answer to
some charges brought against him
and explain his attitude toward GER
tain members of the Club. He how
ever failed to appear, but to the con-
trary he published some of the most
scurrllous editorials possible for him
to conceive. Verify does he deserve
an apology from the GREAT WEST.
Ii he keeps on as at present he will
certainly be expelled from our Club.
mere Is however not great deal
to lear from the "Dalen' now as It
Is losing presentige with all intelli-
gent men. About all it has left to
prove it's loyalty now. is the apol- |
ogy you made to it some time ago
which l was sorry to see at the time.
But once recently Holston got into
a row with Bydal and BydaI and his
printers mobbed Mr.. Holston and
handled him rough, and ever since
that time Mr.. Holston has gained
IN popularity, and if he keeps in the
middle OF the road after this he NAV
be OF some use to the party.
Mrs. Todd spoke here last night
to a good house. Her speech was
universally praised. 1t is doubtful if
ever a speech at Crookston will do
more to make converts then hers.
The alliance people of Crookston
think that you have selected a bad
Time Tor the holding of the alliance
