B. F. Partridge, Fergus Falls, Mimi.
writes US:
We are to have a meeting of Reform
forces here early in January-at which
we shall elect delegates to the conven-
tions in your city, to be held January
18th and 18th. Forty-cent wheat has
touched a sympathetic chord in the
hearts of many a farmer and business
man in Otter Tail county. SO that they
are in good trim to break out any time
singing our Populistic songs.
We shall organize our forces and you
can depend upon it. Otter Tail county
will give the Plutocrats under whatever
from start to finish. We want and must
have Mrs. Lease, here in January, and in
making up a route for her, do not leave
out Fergus Falls
E. o. Fjerstad, of West Duluth, Mimi,
writes us:
understand that you are going to live
in spite of all the devils who are trying to
kill you.
II is just one thing, will tell you; show
a little more friendship towards the Pro-
hibitiOniStS and Socialists as we'll as the
Silvertes; who l think are patriots and
ought to be united upon the AIM "A gov
eminent of. for and by the people," There
is no time to quarrel between yourselves
but come together upon The Initiative
| and Referendum. There is hardly any
difference between YOU but the names.
Z. S. Why don't you drop the adver-
tisement of Uncle Sans Monogram
Whisky.
On reply we would say that we are
working to unite the votes of a II Reform
ers on the same national ticket We are
not hostile to the Silverites and the Pro-
hibitonists; but we think it better for
every tub to stand on it's own bottom
MANY men of many minds and what
pleaseS one drives another away. The
whisky advertisement will end soon-at
the end of the contract. We don't believe
in intemperance any more than our cor
respondent does. G1d. Rep.
NJ. A. Narum. Ulen, Clay county. MIMI
writes us:
Enclosed I send you a money order for
$500 for 20 copies of The Representative
l send YOU herewith a list of IA names
to send them to, and I will send you the
rest of the names as l am able to get
them.
Most of the people here are Norwe gianS
and but few can read English and fully
understand it, So it IS hard to get up
big club. If we had The Representative
in Norwegian I could get hundreds of
subscribers for it. If we had some of
our best reform books in Norwegian and
some other good reform literature in Nor
wegian to send out it would make thou
sands of votes fer he Peoples party in
this state. large part of the people
are NOrWegians. especially here in the
northern part of the state
Steps should be taken to print a weekly
edition of The Representative in Norwo-
gian and another in Swedish; but we fear
to bite off more than we can chew" If
we were sure of 1000 or 1000 subscribers
for the Norwegian edition we might I'M
dertake it. Let all who think they could
help in such a work send us statement
of the number of copies they could secure
and we will see what can be done. It
would not be the intention to displace
any of the excellent Norwegian papers
now in the field, but simply to give those
who do not read English a chance to pc
ruse The Representative in the gothic
tongue. Let us hear from you)
NEVERMORE TO TROUBLE THEE.
