Donnelley left the Republican Party after having served for three terms as Minnesota's Representative in Washington because he saw that the Republicans were "eternally wedded to the interests of the few." In turn he became a Liberal Republican Granger and finally a Greenback-Democrat. As a leader of the Farmers' Alliance in the state legislature he led it "almost to a man" into the Populist party "in the formation of which he had an active part." The Pine Land Investigating Committee was empowered by the state legislature in 1893 to investigate the thievery of timber "stumpage" from timberland in Minnesota. Donnelley was the chairman of the seven-man committee and the report which blew the whistle on the stumpage thieves was written almost entirely by him. <br/><br/> Pioneer Press Co unknown books
