Pursuant to call, about rs mem.
bers of Farmers Alliances in the
Second congressional district met
in Mankato last Thursday and nom
mated J. A. Latimer, of Faribault
county, as their candidate for mem
Der Of Congress. The platform
adopted expresses lack Of conf.
dence in existing political parties,
declares that laboring men and far.
mers of this country are being
reduced to conditions little better
than those of the same classes in
Europe, pronounces alarming the
rapid concentration of capital in a
few hands by the high protective
tariff, the giving Of public lands to
corporations, lavish public expen.
ditures, and reckless awards of pub
lie contracts. Mr.. Latimer is a
gentleman of good habits and fair
intellectual attainments, and has
served the people of his county in
the Legislature, but he has no spec.
ial qualifications for the exalted po-
sition to which he aspires The
Mankato Free Press, commenting
upon the proceedings of the con.
vention, says: Gas a whole, the
convention was void ofenthusiasm,
and very little intererest was mani
tested, many Of the delegates feel
ing it to be an injudicious move to
make a nomination at this time.
Whether this view will prove true
or not, time will demonstrate.
But one thing is certain, the farm
ers have a friend in the Republican
nominee, and as he will represent
this district in the next Congress,
their interest will be carefully
guarded in every particular, and
they can therefore rest secure. ~

you calmly at what price he sold the
proceeds of half dozen little trees,
or of one or five acres Of ground, it
is well not to repeat it in the North,
except to those who personally know
your veracity. One thing may be
said to the credit of these oranges
growers: they heartily welcome
all newcomers to the same busi-
ness, they have no tear OF over
doing the business; there is not
enough good orange land to supply
the demands of the country tor the
superior fruits grown here. There
are millions of acres of fiat woods
which have always been neglected

lands, as in Volusia county, around
Beresford, landing on the beautiful
Lake Berestord, aud the country back
of it at Spring Garden, DeLand and
Orange City, which cost Sl4 for a
quarter section six years since, now
sell readily at $40 to $500 per acre
in the wild woods. These lands lie
very close to the St. Johns river,
and about 100 feet above it. Slmi>

lands OF Putnam, Orange, Polk, and
other counties, only they are more
remote from navigation.
1t is surprising that this old State,
which has been almost as liteless as
a corpse since the Spaniards left 1t,
should all at once put on such an
amazing boom of railroad building.
