n. G. NASH,

~ W. ~ AoAAf
Editor Sioux Valley News,
S1R:-In your last note your addition
al charges. will again ask space for a
brief reply.
The people Of this county we'll know
your malicious, savage and insulting
nature, and it is not necessary for me to
enlarge on this. You have made special
charges and in cool and plain manner
am answering. them. The responsible
ty for this discussion is entirely with you.
have so far made no charges against
you. What have said has been in ex-
planation of your inslnuations, and COM
ments on them. will now simply state
that whatever mortgages appears on the
records IN my name were the property OF
the bank was managing. and prior to
1880 that bank took the same rate IF in
terest as other banks of this town and no
more make no excuse for my acts as
officer of that bank and If further charg-
es are made will compare the business
dealing Of my competitors with those Of
my own. do not desire to draw in the
other banks and private individuals un-
less am forced to it.
Your Black story is absolutely false,
and you know it is and you deliberately
lie. Your Waite insinuation is false and
I challenge you to furnish the proof.
Your insinuation about assessment of
bank stock is Of the same nature as all
your statements malicious. paid all
the taxes which the law required me TO
pay and that is all that any man should
pay.
Your charge that did not write my
article OF the Dec. 22nd is false, and un-
less you prove it otherwise, you should
henceforth be known as 1.-The Sioux
Valley Liar"
Your Waite charges are infamous
falsehoods.
find nothing further to answer and in
conclusion will say that all your articles
manifest malicious and libelous dis
position, and were it not for the Infamous
secret ISLANDERS which you circulated
about me, should not have stopped to
repIy to your attacks. Respectfully,
N# q. Is. KENNhD1

Two Papers For the Price of One.

The St. Louis Globe Democrat-Semi-
Weekly-Tuestluy and Frdny-Eight
pages each ssue-Sixteen pages every
week-only one dollar year, is unques-
tienably the biggest, best and cheapest
national news journal published IN the
United States. Strictly Republican in
politics, it still gives all the news, and
gives it at least three days earlier than
it can be had from and weekly paper pub
lished anywhere. The farmer, merchant
or professional man who desires to keep
promptly and thoroughly posted, but
has not the time to read IL large daily pa
per will find it Indispensable. Remem-
ber the price, only one dollar a year.

EDITOR misunderstanding thai the
LEADER has an extensive circulation
among all classes and especially among
the members of the Farmers Alliance and
independents of Lincoln county. 1t has
occurred to me that perhaps a word of
cheer from the field would encourage the
noble men of Lincoln to continue the
work of reformation among those who
do not possess the necessary light to en-
able them to see the full meaning Of this
movement against plutocracy. 1t is en-
couraying to know that our embers are
being constantly augmented, not only
from the producing classes but from the
citizens OF our towns and cities. The
cold wedge of an unwelcome truth that
laws have been enacted to rob the poor
and enrich the rich, is entering the souls
OF miiiiohs vi uui Country men they
are now in a receptive mood and willing
listners. Now is the golden opportunity
to strike. Now is the opportunity while
YOU have the time to feed the people on
facts. and show them what we demand.
They only need few facts of the past,
and to be shown how simple and sensible
are our demands before they will take it
up and complete their own convention.
1t is too painfully true that the oppres-
sion that has been going on for so long.

the power Of resistance. The system has

compelling them to labor ii hours a day
or until many have been worn out with
the long drawn out fight and now possess
the slaves spirit that of uncomplaining
submission. The system has robbed the
people until they have nothing left to
fight with. They groan and obey.
Our people over the state are encourag-
ed to 90 forward; the most cheering evil
dence of spirit Of victory possesses the
people. Letters from various portions of
the state are coming in, Indicating that

great Alliance states.
Men OF Lincoln, arise, come togethec.
reorganize your Alliances. hold opsn
meetings, and command success from
your very persistence. The LEADER is
doiag splendid work, hold up its hands,
and surely you cannot do it more success
fully than by doing all in your Lower to

cause Of economical education, because

May.


This month, the fifth in our calendar,
was the third with the. Romans. The
origin of the name is somewhat doubt
full, but the best etymology seems to
show that it is derived from the goddess
Maia. the mother of Mercury. that swift
messenger OF Jove. Though the Ro-
mans held many festivals in this month,
in one respect they deemed it to be un-
'luck-to contract marriages in May. In
our mother land Of England. from time
almost immemorial, the first day of May
has been time for floral festivities and
innocent out-of-door jollity. During
Cromwelian times the severe sectaries
abolished the May-p pole dances and re-
5oicing, doing all they could to turn the
world into what they declared it to be-
a vale of tears. Happily that day Of
prejudice and bigotry has passed. and
we welcome the month Of flowers. as We
should, charming gift from the creator.
Travel in the Northwest is never pleas
anter than in this month, and no part OF
this section ia more attractive than the
beautiful valley Of the upper Mississippi
A journey along the east bank OF this
picturesque river, II taken in the elegant
fast trains Of the Burlington Route, will
always be a pleasant memory. For tick
