to speak the rain was coming down in
torrents, so all hands adjourned to
big barn. a few rods distant. There
the audience sat around on the hay,
while we told them some solemn and
some amusing truths.
When we finished a gentleman in
formed us that the famous Mrs. Diggs,
of Kansas, was present. We were as
much astonished as if a meteor had
fallen from Mars.
The sun came out, and we all walked
over to the grove, and Mrs. Diggs
spoke in her keen. incisive and enter
tanning manner for more than an hour,
to me great delight of her audience.
The crowd was large; many having
come twenty-five and thirty miles to
participate.
Mrs. Diggs will remain in this state
for some weeks and will be glad to fill
some engagements. We understand
her terms are S. day and entertain
ment. She is a very capable, earnest
and eloquent woman and an original
thinker. Write to President Long of
the Alliance, Magnolia, Mimi, if you
desire to secure her services.
We are also glad to note that Mrs.
Mary E. Lease, the world-famous orator
is in the state, and can make some
speeches during June. She is at Fer
gus Falls. Write Hon. H. E. Boon,
there; or President Long.
Harvest will be late this year and
there will be a month or more during
which the work of education can be
pressed; and in these two noble women
we have the best educators in the
Union.
We stopped, during our visit to Clyde,
at the house of Mr.. ]. r. Campbell,
while his brother, Alexander Campbell,
drove us back to the station, at Utica.
They own large and splendid farms,
side by side, and are earnest Populists
and Alliance men:-they take no stock
in Mr. Ovens proposition to abandon
the Peoples Party and join the Dem
ocrats. Mr. J. r. Campbell was one of
the delegates to the St. Louis cOnven-
ton, in July 1896; and he, with three
other Minnesota men. refused to vote
for Mr. Bryan, and gave his support to
Col Norton, of Illinois.
Everybody we talked to in Winona
county was in favor of the Nashville
conference. We were the more sur
prised at this since this part of the
state is regarded as more conservative
than the western portion.
We were accompanied from Winona
by Mr. Wheeler, Mr.. Nagley and others
good Populists. We met at the pic
mic that splendid man, Hon. Charles
Goss, of Ridgeway, member of the last
House, and one of the best men in it.
Also his brother w. II. Goss who looks
enough like him to be his twin.
They say the Fifteenth District will
send Charley Goss back to the legisla
ture. They could not do better.
