SHORT COMMENTS.

E. D. Compton, Grove Lake, Mimi, writes:

subscriptions to the Representative. / am
well pleased with the paper and try to do

l think if l had few extra copies on town

club. ] think every Populist ought to do all
he can for the advancement of the party and
not be ashamed of being an out and CIV cry
day Populist.
James Ryan, Woodstock Mimi, writes:

on my subscription on the Representative.
Long may the paper live and it's great light

union is the wish of your humble servant.
F.. A. Stewart, Faribault. Mimi, writes:
payment of 80 names. 1 have been reader
of The Representative since the first issue
and think that it is the grandest paper that
cples of the Peoples Party which your
paper champions and the thoughts and sug-
gestons and honest convictions of the noble
men who sacrifice so much for this good
cause should have the hearty support of
every true American citizen. And l feel
heartily ashamed Of myself to think have
not done more to push the good work along.
good way to push the work is to get
the Representative into every home in this
state. If we could do that think that the
people would rise in their wrath and crush
the power Of their oppressors with one blow.
Anselem r. Kirsch, Nicl1town, Pa. writes:
us: ut is plainly evident that Mr. ITanlcy
doesn't know any more about socialism than
the OK does about Sunday. l am surprised
that one who pretends to be reform editor
should be so densely ignorant about social
ism as to class them with dynamiters, nihi-
lists and anarchists. His own words prove
that he doesn't know what socialism is.
Socialists and anarchists are just the OPP
posite of each other, the former wants the
government to own and operate all monopo-
lies in the interest of all the people while
the latter want no government at all. IT
would keep a pluto editor busy to beat Mr..
| article I can't O.
formers must always be fighting reformers.
How can we ever get together in that way
win. Mr.. IIanley had better study mp how
we can unite on the initiative and referen-
dunn than to be throwing mud at the social
lists. Yours for grand Populist victory in
Nov &C.
