LISTSEON TO CINCINNATI.
The call is hereby issued for all true
Populists OF South Dakota to immedi-
ately send in their referendum ballots
to the undersigned, expressing their
choice for delegates to the national con-
vention, Peoples party, to meet in Gin
cinnati, Wednesday, May 8. 1900.
Should any voters still have doubts
40 to whether the Cincinnati or Sioux
Falls convention represents the boilers
OF the national committee that met at
Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 10 and 20, he can
receive the printed proof by applying to
the undersigned.
. BY the number Of votes cast at Lin
coin. by every parliamentary rule, by
Justice and principle. THE CINCIN-
MATT CONVENTION will be the real
Peoples party convention, the Sioux
Falls convention merely . bolt to the
Democratic party. &,
There 10 no intention to dictate to q
referendum party who the delegates
may be. All Populists are eligible so
long as they stand on the Omaha plat
form and action Independent Of either
old party. But owing to our disorgan-
ized condition it has been thought ad-
visable to suggest the subjoined names
AZ available men, although the field il
open to all.
Taking the presidential vote Of
1924. when the Populist vote was over
$4,000, South Dakota Is entitled to II
delegates.

was strangely omitted in the type. Mr..
Pease IL editor of the Mt. Vernon News,
and one Of the most reliable. able and
best known Populists Of that state. AS

safe to say to voters in South Dakota,

him to head your delegation to Gin
cinnati."
