N.W. Cor[ner] Fifth & Calvert Sts.
Baltimore MD. U.S.A.
October 9. 1890.
Dear Mr. Wallace.
Some of my nationalist friends to whom I have shown your very kind letter about my Political Economy, would like to see the enclosed extract published in one of our newspapers1 & presume it might be helpful at the present time. Please let me know whether you have any [2] objections.
What you say is extremely interesting.
My attitude is simply this: I do not accept the full programme of nationalism but I am glad to see nationalism encouraged because I think it is the direction in which us in this country at last ought to move.
I send under another cover a reprint of an recent article which I wrote on government ownership of Railways.
Faithfully yours | Richard T. Ely. [signature]
