today even after the price got above calls.
A large increase is expected Monday in the
visible supply. Statistician Snow predicts a
minimum yield of 100 0,OC0 bu. Paris cable
to prominent house reads: Weather i'm
proving, prospects for large crop; wheat
and flour markets weak. Some reports
come from southern Kansas that the con-
tinued wet weather has caused rust to ap-

A Strong Plea for Amnlgamation.
Editor Representative:

Strong Plea for rAmnlgamation.
Editor Representative:
A few weeks ago 1 read piece in the
Representative entitled "A New Deal,'
which touched a cord which must and
will vibrate sooner or later, and venture
to offer a few thoughts on the all i'm
portant questions of consolidation of the
reform forces which supported VIM J.
Bryan l can see but one way to do it,
viz: consolidate all factions in to one
reform party. do not believe that three
or more separate organizations trying to
act together will ever win. If we are
to have continual factiona1 fighting in all
the States in what condition shall we be
for the great decisive battle of 1900? Is
it not evident that this disastrous fratri-
cidal strife must cease? Is there any way
to put a stop to it other than a conyen-
ton consolidating these factions in one
party upon one platform. and right here
l wish to say to all parties concerned
that mutual forbearance and a spirit of
tOloIdCIOu lS dUSOiuicly essential 10 bring
about this result. Il must be borne in
mind that no man can be spared, and ey-
cry man is needed. The Peoples party
has brought to the front burning issues
that existing parties are afraid of, and
kept up the agitation until the money
question was thrust in to everybody's
face, and in the late presidential election
more than six million votes were east
for the free coinage Of silver at 16 to l.
But harmony is now essential, and the
reform forces of today might profit from
short leaf Of history in the formation
OF the Republican party. When the anti
slavery people found that they had fired
the hearts Of the northern people they
let go their organizations and formed
themselves into one party and named it
the Republican party. They did not
adopt tho abolition platform in full; they
adopted as much OF it as the people
were ready for. The Republican party did
not give mp the fight or change their
platform when Freemont was defeated.
FCar years later they elected Lincoln.

The Representative has for three
months been an interesting, instruc-
tive and welcome weekly visitor In
several thousand homes where It vaa
unknown before. Many Republican,
and Democrats have come to realize
that their own papers do not always
tell the truth, the whole truth and
nothing but the truth, and they feel
higher duties Of the best American
citizenship by keeping informed up
on all the vital Issues of the day.
This cannot be done by reading the
papers Of a great newspapers trust.
The Representative is generally rec
ognized as without a peer as an IN
exponent of political reform. Its cir
cu1atiOn reaches every state in the
Union and crosses the sea. We have
offered the b&Der three months on

ant letter to his constituents. We do
not wonder that he has been driven by
persistent persecution to take the step
he has:
TO the Officers and Members of the
Farmers Alliance and Industrial Union
Of Minnesota:
Gentlemen-I regret very much that I
am compelled to do that which l find is
absolutely necessary for me to do in or
der that the work Of the alliance can
be conducted In peaceable and busi-
ness-like manner.
Ever since we decided to hold a state
convention last fall and winter, as was
the invariabIe custom of the alliance
In years past, We find certain leading
newspapers directing their assaults of
contempt and derision upon the organi-
zation and certain Of it's officers at the
state capitol, and for the further crime
OF having the governor of the state and
the mayor of the city Of St. Paul meet
with the Alliance In their official ca
pacity and deliver addresses of welcome
to the delegates Of the great agricultural
society Of this state. We may state that
this same courtesy and honor is extend
ed to the labor conventions, and in fact
all state conventions of fraternal socie-
ties who choose the Capital City as a
place Of meeting, and the addresses of
welcome delivered are always addressed
to the societies or conventions as citi-
zens OF the state, without regard to their
religious creeds OR political beliefs, or
race or color
AS the executive officer Of the Alliance,
living here in the city and having charge
OF the details, have been selected IS
the victim who must be sacrificed 10
crafty the ghoulish instincts Of a band
OF reputation-destroyers whose persist
ent, malicious and systematic attempt to
ruin my character has never been re-
laxed. l have therefore, decided to give
those reputation-dest an opportun-
ity to prove their base and injurious as
sertions and insinuations in open court
l have instructed my attorneys to
begin suit for libel against the Mime
apolis Times, ''The Farm, Stock and
Home" and "F. G. Gibbs" all of this
state, for $4,000 damages each.
l regret this action very much, but if
the Alliance is to live we must rebuke
intermeddling outsiders who seek every
opportunity to create dissensions within
our ranks. and grin with ghoulish glee
at the strife and turmoil they create.
We may deem it necessary to bring other
active agents also into court to prove
their lying insinuations before we get
through. We have stood this assault
| on our character with as much patience
as we could, but this last attack upon us
by F. c. Gibbs in the Minneapolis Times
on Monday, May 10th, is the eliminating
point which decided our future course
This assault, unprovoked, malicious and
uncalled for, was the last straw" of
| human endurance. From now on our
policy of vigorous action will be inaugu-
rated to defend my reputation, and the
honor and integrity Of our organization
of which 1 have the honor to be an

A war implement comprising a horse
power bayOnet was patented this week
by a Minneapolis man, and consists of a
series of bayonets, mounted on a cross
bar, located forward of the horses on the
vehicle, which carries the same. The
cross bar is connected to the wheels of
tho vehicle by crank arms, which cause
the bayonets to vibrate, dealing vital
results when used.
The vehicle is adapted to be used with
four or more horses, and carries IL or

Quoting the public business of the coun.
ty Jail: the Office of the clerk of the
court: the Office of probate clerk and re'
corder of the county; the office of the
county assessor; the office of the county
collector and the Office of the county
sheriff. We are pleased to be able to re.
port that the condition of the county
Jail and the care of prisoners confined
therein are as good as it seems to us
| possible to them in such Il delapidated
prison. The jail is clean and the food
served to the prisoners is abundant and
wholesome. The places of confinement
OF the inmates are not as comfortable as
they ought to be in accordance with hui
name prison discipline, but they are as
good as they can well be made in the
condition of the building. Santa Fe
county needs IA new jail building, and
W. earnestly recommend that the board
of county commissioners give the sub
ject their attention as soon as the tinan-
cial condition of the county will war
rant any moderate expenditure for that
purpose.
''We are pleased to be able to report
that the offices of the clerk of this court,
the probate clerk, and recorder of the
county. the county collector and the
county assessor are conducted in a
business like manner. and the books of
the officers are kept neatly. legibly and
up to date. We are especially pleased
with the office and books of the county
assessor, and we congratulate the pco-
pie of the county on the businesSlike
administration of the public business of
the county as far as we were able to
observe in our brief examination"
As far as the remainder of the report
is concerned, the least said about it, the
better. 1t is u political attack. no more
and no less. 1t is not worth the paper
it is written ON and is not based upon
trustworthy testimony. In fact. it is
charged that a good deal of political
animus was shown by some members of
the grand jury, which, of course in the
deliberations of such bodies. should
have no place whatsoever.
