l.. c. LONG MAKES A SUGGESTION

In another column will be found an
interesting letter from L. c. Long, of
Magnolia, Oh the probable results of
the coming convention and elsewhere
will be found letters from several ear
nest Populists bearing more or less up
on the future policy and prospects of the
Peoples party. Such letters should, in
the language of Horace Greeley, eur
nish mighty interesting reading" No
part of good Populist paper possesses
greater value for it's readers than it's
forum. 1t is from such letters that we
may best learn the majority sentiment
in ourtpafty. 1t is the earnest, deeply
interested men that take the time and
trouble to carefully prepare a thought
full article for their paper. No one man
possesses all of the political wisdom in
any party and free expression in this
way Of the thoughts of the many is the
nearest approach to the referendum
principle in which all Populist believe.
It cannot be expected that such letters
will be in any sense perfect. Many ideas
advanced would, Of course, seem cranky,

That so cent combination of the four
best and most comprehensive reform

How Shall We Get Reforms.


AS the congressional elections draw
near, this is becoming very live ques-
ton. It is safe to say that nine-tenths
Of the people of the United States really
desire reform. Land Is absolutely nee
essary to human existence. and laws
regulating the holdings Thereof are Of
paramount Importance; our present laws
permit unlimited monopoly Of land. by
individuals and corporations, not only
by our own citizens, but by aliens as
we'll, hence every thoughtful man deems
them utterly wrong.
Transportation is second In import
ance only to land, under our modern
conditions OF universal exchange Of the
products Of labor, yet our present laws
permit, and practically encourage and

Something of This Kind Should BE

Something of This Kind Should BE
Done.
Editor Representative:
Many Of us fondly hoped that at the
state committee meeting February 10th,
the scrappers in the Populist party had
shaken hands across the bloody chasm,
that peace was declared and harmony
secured. We find that we were mis-
taken, as the fight continues, and will
come to climax at the convention
when there will be bolt and a divis-
ion Of the party. This Is bound to be
the outcome unless there is a cessation
Of hostilities among ourselves.
Votes taken at mass meetings Of Popu-
lists show that nine-tenths of the rank
and file OF the party are opposed to
fusion with the Democratic party
This opposition Is caused, not by III
will for Democrats. burt for the reason
that we are satisfied the name Democrat
