THE ROLL OF HONOR.
RESPONSES FROM FRIENDS OF
THE CAUSE.
They Are Determined that the Representative
Shall Be Put On It's Feet.

From all quarters the responses rOli
in, in answer to our appeal.
From far away Oklahoma, from
Guthrie, comes letter from Mr.. Leo
Vincent, editor of our namesake. the
Representative" with thirty-two
subscribers and cash for the same.
Mr.. Vincent writes as follows:
"FRIEND DoNNELLY:
You last REPRESENTATIVE came
duly to hand, and in it 1 noticed your
appeal" 1t so aptly compared to
the situation here that | am using it
this week. Not only that, but Mrs.
Vincent is an admirer of the DOnnel-
ly literature tosuch degree that the
enclosed names were secured by her,
as our friends have called in the office
since yesterday morning. would be
glad if Oklahoma could be sowed
thick with your REPRESENTATIVE,
ETC."
We are very proud of the generous
support of Mrs. Vincent, and pro-
foundry grateful for the same.
Then we have received another very
kindly letter, as follows:
FRIEND DoNNELLY:
There will be sent in, in a few days.
one hundred or more subscribers from
this town. Enclosed find $40 whi CHI
you are to use as you wish; and l hope
others will forward as they can, so
that you will be able to own press
independent of anybody. God bless
your noble. patriotic heart; and If 9TH
ers do not send enough to enable you
to purchase press, will send more.
Yours, etc. J. G. DICKEY.

| YOU aDpeal to the friends of TIL

buy printing press because TIL

Grove City, MIMI, Feb. 5.
Hon. w. J. Bodkin. of Clay county
Mimi, writes US, under date of Feb
Sth, 1896:
II will be one of one hundred tina
will give $25 to help you get press
We will win if the good work is KEEP
up. Call out the reserves"
while we are very grateful to al
these kind friends, for their generou
help, we do not feel that they are dc
ing this for us personally, but for tn
paper and the common cause. TIL
cause far transcends any Individual
1t is the cause of good governmen
and of mankind.
The REPRESENTATIVE is meetin
place.-a hall, as it were;-where tn
friends of reform can gather and COME
together and encourage one another
1t is chain of living fire reaching from
heart to heart, and linking all in on
indissoluble phalanx. Withoutsuch a
organ we are the most wretched an
helpless of human beings-divided
distraught, demoralzed. When W
speak from the editorial tripod {
The REPRESENTATIVE we talk t.
100000 congenial and responsiv
hearts. Without it our voice woul
die away in the silent air.
Help it. brethren, help it. Be a!
sured that it will never desert or be
tray you.
Il PROPHET.
