the farmers to order Irvine from the
prison and thus save from three to
five cents per pound. Mr.. Nelson
was ON the prison committee; he
must have known early that the
Irvine was going fast and that there
was danger OF getting in the order
too late. He ran partly ON the
Irvine issue.
What did he do? The foregoing
was my question. Instead of man.
fully and truthfnlly coming out and
saying that neither did nothing, you
bubble as to the duties of a legisla-
tor. l would infer from your rather
indefinite and evasive reply that you
place the state Irvine plant on a level
with other commercial enterprises.
Please permit me to mOmentarily
pry open your receptacle of gray
matter and disabuse your warped
opinions. The prison Irvine plant
is the peoples plant or to be more
exact it's the farmers. 1t was es-
tabiished to furnish them Irvine at
cost. It is their own enterprise.
They are all co-partners and CO.
owners. They must share in it's ex-
penses they should profit by it's ben
etits. And the only way to do this
is to purchase prison Irvine. Owing
to the high price charged by dealers
in 1893 some farmers were on the
alert in 1899. Already in January
they began to send in orders. 1t
soon became apparent that the pris-
on people would be swamped with
orders. First come, first served is
their unalterable rule. Messrs. Grue
and Nelson and particularly the lat
ter must have known of this impend-
ing shortage and still they did moth
ing to warn their constituents. With
them cheap Irvine from the prison
was favorite electioneering argu-
ment last fall, but when they were
elected the situation changed. 1t be-
came matter OF supreme indiffer-
ence to them whether their constitu-
ents paid or Is cents per pound for
Irvine. What did Grue and Nelson
care? They were elected and getting
! S. per day. The Irvine argument
had served it's purpose. Not Il
thought did they give their constitu-
ents and now to cap the climax OF
the whole mess comes Reform Law
son and says it was none of their
business to heed the interests OF their
constituents as to ordering prison
| Irvine. Kind reader mark the cOllOs-
al ilnpudence of the so-called reform
gang. First they allure you with
promises and expectations of cheap
Irvine, then they ignore you Irvine
and all; and finally they contemptu-
ously through their official mouth
piece Inform you that it none of their
business and that you can paddle
your own canoe. Very many per-
haps the majority of the farmers in
| KandiyOhi county contemplated get
ting prison Irvine. They were slow
about completing their orders in the
absence of some definite information.
Many believed ii the orders We're in
by May LIST they would be filed.
Now Messrs. Grue and Nelson knew
better if they learned anything at all
on the Irvine question. A short let
tier published the week previous to
the annual town meetings would

RAYMOND, Aug. %, 1899.
Editor Republican Gazette,
With your kind permission and the
Indulgence of the Gazette readers,
1 will resume my reply to my friend
Lawson. l trust that he and the
other gentlemen I have dealt with
have now fully digested the several
repasts that have furnished them.
My friend Lawson, upon reading my
first installment, commenced to
winch and croak about great length,
etc., and again this feeling of uneasi-
ness manifests itself when he pub
lished my second article. All have
to say is this: Vic used eleven COL
umns to answer my letter of one;
should l not have the same privilege?
I will promise you dear Vic that my
whole reply shall not exceed the ratio
established by you. Now to the
reply.
We will now briefly consider my
question as to the bills Messrs. Grue
and Nelson introduced and how
many of them became laws. This
was what I asked Reform Lawson.
You do not mention one single meas
ure.' Now the fact of the matter is
Mr.. Victor Lawson, our distinguish
ed members did introduce afew bills.
What became of them? Sleeping the
sleep OF eternity tn the secretary of
states Office and proper epit.,th
perhaps would be: "Died from neg
lect and incompetent nursing" III
am correct in my memory the only
bill the honorable gentlemen succeed
ed in passing was one to enable the
Taxpayers OF the village of Willmar
to levy an additional four-mill tax
on village property. Now, isn't this
a beautiful record to come home with
for a couple of apostles of the great
reform (?) party? They and their
reform paper have been bowling
these many years about .exorbitant
tax OurOenS ana JUST as soon as they
get q chance to institute little re-
form or retrenchment If you please,
they distinguish themselves by put
ting it into the hands Of a few men
| to slap on another fifteen or sixteen
hundred dollars on the Taxpayers Of
Willmar. And then It is indeed ques-
tionable whether or not this eve
lamb which Grue and Nelson 80 gen
erously present to q delighted con-
stituency will live or die. Ye frolic-
some taxpayers Of Willmar, who
to-day stand overaWed by the opu-
llency Of yonr legislative servants,
and who are Whetting your appe-
titles ct the prospect q legislative
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1899-09-06

catch votes. And again, the last
paragraph of yourlast falls platform
reads as follows: eve believe that
our State capitol lands should be re-
served for some State institution to
be located at or near the same"
Now, dear Mr.. Lawson Will you
kindly tell us what our distinguished
reform legislators did as to this
declaration? Come right out dear
Vic and acknowledge if you have the
moral courage to do so: They didn't
do a thing! They never even made
an effort in any shape, form or man
ner to carry out this part of their
platform.
Now, Mr.. Lawson, what did you
put these paragraphs in your plat
form for? Did you really mean what
you said or were you just trying to
catch q few suckers? In other words,
were these pledges in line with your
general theory of hoodwinking the
, F.
people" 1t would appear SO from
the record of your, legislative pro-
teges on these particular matters.
What would You have said If Sena-
tor Thorpe and myself, in the event
of our election, had absolutely ig-
nored two questions specifically
mentioned in our platform? Would
you call that "great care'' and 'sgood
Judgment" Oh, NO! You would in.
quire, and very pertinently too:
Why did the gentlemen ignore their
platform? You would perhaps have
visions OF the money-loaners5 inter
ference with our duties, but, 81
course, that would not be possible
where g couple i Of reformers {??) are
concerned. SO much for that. In
your reply to my query as to the
record OF Messrs. Grue and Nelson
you indulge in q half column explana-
ton not 81 their record but q the
tact that you didn't expect them to

Again Editor Crosby has courteous.
ly given US the use of his type set up
in the Henry Feig matter. We want
our readers to read it through. It is
the greatest exhibition of it's kind that
we have ever seen. When Feig has
concluded, we will have a few com.
ments to make. Following is the arti-
Gle as it appeared in the Gazette: !
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1899-09-06

with you "where the wish was ia
ther to the thought Rev. Mr..
Battey says in speaking of Grue that
che sought to help our Anti-Saloon
cause" Mind you dear reader he
sought" to do so, but he didn't DO
anything. Senator Thorge, his re-
publican opponent, can point to a
better record. He not only "sought
to do something for temperance re-
form, but he pitched right in and did
it. He secured the passage of a most
practical temperance measure in his
anti-whOlesale bill.
Mr.. Thorpe has something practi-
cal to show as the result of his tenn
perance work In the legislature. But,
how us to his successor? Nothing,
absolutely nothing. Grue voted in
committee for the county option bill.
1t failed to get a, majority Of the
committee. When the bill was re-
ported to the senate for indefinite
lpostpOnements there was a minority
report in favor Of it. This was sign
ed by Grue. Now, when these two
reports were considered in the: SEN
ate did any living being hear Of one
word uttered to back up his report
by our distinguished disciple OF tenn
perance. Oh, no! He sat like a bump
on y log and let Senator's Jepsun Of
Hennepin, and Halvorson, of Lac qui
Parle do the fighting for the cause 81
temperance. Do you for q moment
suppose my dear Vic that under sim
liar circumstances Ills predecessor
would have sat there silent and In
Iactive' No, and y Thousand times
no! Senator Thorpe not. only has
lideas on the temperance IN question,
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1899-09-06

the county option DILL, and my subse-
quent vote for the bill itself, incurred
for me the opposition of most of the
saloon men at the last election.
But, that didn't hinder you in
spite Of your alleged temperance SEN
'timents to ally yourself with these
men whom you profess to abhor, to
defeat me, by decrying me as an enc
my of temperance reform. Amt
you proud Mr.. Victor Lawson, you,
who decry the saloon as a hell-hole
to form such coalitions. Now, Mr..
Editor, pardon my taking up so
much space on this particular ques-
ton OF Gr1e and temperance reform.
My friend Lawson doesn't mention
our representative Nelson on this
score. He seems to have been lost in
the shuttle and still he voted for q
county option bill too, Is Lawson
afraid that this may hurt Nelson
with the saloonkeepers who so ar
IDENTIFY supported him last fall? Why

port 81 i stranger that he sought
to do certain things. sBy their

have saved $1,000 to their constitu-
ents. But no, the gentlemen were
too busy and moreover says Reform
Lawson it was none of their busi-
ness. Well friend Vic that's Just how
person would view the official du-
ties of the Legislature. You are evil
IDENTIFY easily satisfied when the off,
Ger in question is protege of yours.
But inquire will the farmer constit-
uents of Messrs. Grue and Nelson
condone their Incidence and indiffer-
encc with that alacrity with which
apologist Lawson swallows all of
their shortcomings? And now Mr..
Victor Lawson l will gratuitously
