Please find inclosed check for IS for
subscriptions to the Representa-
tive" for the following persons. \
= 4 I wish herewith to express
my enthusiasm for the Representa-
tive" 1t is just the thing, just what
we need to show the world that we
are alive, and that fresh alliance
blood circulates through our veins,
and am so much attached to the
paper that I shall try to have at least
one copy with me in the resurrection,
as think that will give admittance
to the golden gate more than any SER
mon from the pulpit; and 1 think
shall hear the words:
'If you believe in the Representa-
tive'' and have done anything to
spread it (Which can prove by the
editor and business manager) you
will be admitted to reserved seat,
because the advocates of these prin-
cipleS have always been striving to
fulfill the righteous act of feeding the
hungry and to giving clothes to the
naked, etc."
With sincere greatitude I remain
yours truly,
CHAs. NORDIN.
Sec'y of the Local Alliance Of Isanti.

In the Great West, issue of May 49,,
DR.. Fish calls me liar, and puppy,
and rank fusionist, and accuses me
of writing an artile to Mr.. Donnelly
about Fish riding down to Ocala on
a pass. Now we will see who is the
liar. In the first place after Fish's
trip down to Ocala he had occasion
to visit Glenwood to get to Morris.
While he was here in GlenwOod he
called on one of our merchants and
in the conversation the merchant
said, cit must cost you a good deal of
money to travel" Says the Fish II
had pass; it is not a crime to ride
On pass if you are lucky enough to
get one" But Fish objects to anyone
riding on pass and that is what he
is bowling about. This article of rid
ing on pass he says was written by
me to the Hon. Ignatius Donnelly.
It was not: it was written to Mr..
Stoughton the editor of this Journal,
as you can see through the columns
Of this paper that he is the editor.
Now about the fusion, in the last
column of his issue of May 10Th
he tells what fusion is, and we did
not have such deal in Pope county,
and l have never been accused of
fusion by any one of our candidates or
any one else in Pope county, and /
would like to ask Fish who runs the
campaign in Pope county, himself or
the county committees of the reSpec-
tive parties? The members of the
county committee of which I have
the honor to be chairman are all
good men, selected by myself and con-
firmed by the county alliance. They
are members of the peoples party and
their characters are above reproach.
Now 1 would like Fish to explain
what is the cause of the deafness in
our county? 1 think it is because of
his constantly blaguarding and
slandering somebody. When he ran
a paper at our county seat he Sian.
dered some of our most respected
citizens-one especially-one of the
most honest and conscientious men
that ever sat in the legislature OF
this state. Now in conclusion
would say that was born in a land
that good loyal men come from, not
blackguards; and I stand to-day a
staunch alliance and peoples party
man and an American citizen; o1
which 1 am proud. My father was
killed wheo 1 was boy three years
old tilling the virgin soil in England
IN which occupation I am trying t.
make an honest living; my mother il
yet hale and hearty near the age Of
Is, and she has raised three sons Of
whom the youngest is now dead; and
three daughters who are living. An6
we have always been respected unit
my name appeared in the columns O
the Great West; and challenge you
Mr.. "middle in the road" Journal, tt
come to my home in Pope county ant
call me a liar, or fusionist, or
puppy! Now, brother alliancemel
and reformers, this is the kind of ;
free lance and middle of the road {?
journal we have been keeping up
| and 1 think it is time to call halt
The day is fast approaching When tn
Almighty will pour out his wrath OF
the slanderer. BEN PEACOCK,
