APPEAL TO P0PULISTS
For the Lease Home Fund.

The following contributions have been
received tor the fund recently started,
which is being raised by the Representa-
tive for the purpose of purchasing a home
for Mrs. Mary Ellen Lease, of Kansas.
who has been ruthlessly deprived Of the
shelter for her children, by a money-lending
corporation. for one-half the amount loaned
upon 1t, and a Judgment obtained for the
remainder, which they propose to use in
following her up to reduce her to absolute
want. Her offense is the eloquent advo-
cacy Of Populist principles. l ask every
lover of justice and fair play to send his
contribution to me at Hastings, Mimi. and
l will see that the money is acknowledged
in this paper, and scrupulously applied to
the purpose designated. 1 also call upon
all Populist newspapers throughout the
country to give notice to their readers Of
the movement, and request their subscrib-
ers to contribute to the fund.
