A Hearty Endorsement,

Thomas ]. Meighen, of Fillmore Co.,
chairman of the state central committee
of the Peoples Party, and one of the
most popular and respected members of
the party in southern Minnesota, writes
us, in private letter, as follows:]
II congratulate you on the initial
number of the REPRESENTATIVES,. The
article on Fusion is a squelcher; ;
and your defence of annual sessions is
unanswerable. In short, nearly all your
leading articles have gone into my scrap
book.
II hope to be able to do some special
work for the REPRESENTATIVE. We ought
to raise 200 subscribers for it in Fillmore
county in short time.
Major Hotchkiss in his paper this
week gives the REPRESENTATIVE a fine
endorsement. I trust all our local Peo-
pies Party papers will have sense and
patriotism enough to do the same thing.
fThey have done so pretty generally.
