I am 60 years old, and have been a reformer ever since Tilden ran for
President. I said then there wasn’t a hair’s length difference in the old
parties.

Your Magazine is simply grand, glorious, rich and racy. It makes ’em
wiggle.
I consider Tom Watson the grandest, greatest and most brilliant man of
this or any other age, and may God grant him strength to continue the
fight for human liberty and human right until the fight is won.

_C. E. Skinner, Modoc, Ind._
I am very much interested in the wave of reform that is sweeping over our
country as indicated by the recent elections. Keep hammering away, Bro.
Watson, you have my entire sympathy and support.

_M. E. Rose, South Rutland, N. Y._
I think your Magazine is doing a great deal of good in waking up the dull
minds of the common people, which I hope in 1908 will sweep the cussedest
set of rascals into—well, say the penitentiary.

_George S. Harley, Laurel, Ind._
I think it is “just about right.” It just suits me. I can’t see how it
could be made any better. The last number (December) is worth the price
of a year’s subscription. It is full of good things.

_E. E. Ropes, Deland, Fla._
I am a Massachusetts Yankee, a Republican. I served under Jim Lane in
Kansas; under Sherman in Georgia. When I first received your magazine I
told your old school-mates Alex and Lee Morris that I might vote for you
for President. It seems, however, that you oppose protection. That lets
me out. I believe every honest, intelligent, patriotic American is a
protectionist.

_Jonas Welch, Oakdale. La._
I do not think that it could be improved. All it needs is for the people
to read it more and educate themselves on the reforms that the Populists
advocate.

I have been a reader of your splendid Magazine from the first issue. I
saw by the papers prior to the time you commenced your publication that
you were going to edit a magazine. I immediately began to plan to stop
the circulation of a 50-cent dollar long enough to get it to you for one
year’s subscription, but son beat me to it, he having no taxes to pay,
nor no overalls to buy, went barefooted, wore a seven cent straw hat and
a thirty cent hickory shirt and saved his money and sent it in to you
while I was sweating blood trying to pry a money lender loose from one of
his idols.
