The Chicago Journal has spoken, and
here is its opinion of the Farmers Associa-
ton
THE Illinois State Farmers Association So
called has evidently fallen into hands of Democra-
tic and other sorehead political schemers At its
meeting at Decatur 1t adopted an Out-and-ou Dem
ocratic platform. 1t should be generally under
stood, however, that this is not the organization OF
Changers. The latter is honest and practicable
the other isn't"
1t may be source of some consolation
to the .Jou,psol to know that every word of
that platform was written by staunch re-
publican, of genuine New England birth.
He may be sorehead, but the only reason
is that he cannot indorse the salary grab
and monopoly proclivities of the Republi-
can party, which happen to be the only prin-
ciples of that party which remain for anyone
to indorse From the conclusions of the
journal, it appears that a rejection of
those pet principles shows man to be a
Democrat That will do for party test.

PHIL. ALLEN DEAD.

The following dispatch was received in
this city to-day and contains the sad news
of the death of one of our well known
young men:
ST.LouIs, Jan. I'd, 1874.
To c. Lynde, Rock Island. III.
Philip Allen died this morning
CHARLES J. ALLEN.
This dispach comes from Maj. Allen,
brother of the deceased, and contains the
only information received up to our time OF
going to press. From letters received by
friends of Mai. Allen few days ago, we
learn that Phil was hurt or cut either in
the hand or arm, and was very low. 1t Is
probable, if this be true, that lock jaw sci
in and caused death.
Philip K.Allen, came to this city in Nov
1868, if we remember rightly, and was en-
gagged with his old friend, f. Harroon, Of
Fulton, NJ ,on the rapids Improvements.
He remained in this vicinity, engaged il
various capacities under his brother, wht
had charge of the rapids improvements
and in railroad contracting on the Rock
| ford and the Continental railroads, | III
about the Odd of last March, when he wen
to st. Louis, and,we believe, has since beer
engaged on some. surveying boat in hi
