Farmers Against Cleveland,

The State Farmers Alliance has issued an
address to the farmers of New York in op-
position to the election Of Grover Cleveland
for President The address says that two of
the members of the committee which issues
it are Democrats, that no member of the
committee voted for the Republican candi-
date for Governor in opposition to Cleveland
two years ago and none of them will vote for
Cleveland for President. They allege that he
mas been unfaithful to the pledges by which.
for the first time since the days of Silas
Wright, the rural counties of New York
were induced to give a Democratic capdi-
date a majority.
They therefore denounce his candidacy as
unworthy the support of farmers. Two of
the railroad commissioners appointed by
him were men identified with railroad cor
porations. He appointed member of the
board of public works whose policy has
been directed to neutralize the advantage to
the farming interests of New York and the
West intended to be accomplished by max
ing the Erie Canal free public highway.
In making board of tax commissioners, he
left the great agricultural interests unrepre-
sented, disregarding their formal request
for the appointment of a farmer having
special qualifications for the duties of the
place, and finally they assert THAI he has
identified himself and his candidacy with
corporate monopolies, both in his action as
Governor and in the means bV which his re-
nomination for the Presidency was accom-
plished.
This, they say, is not party question and
they do not appeal as partisans of any can
dldate. The issue made by his nomination
subordinates all others. 1t is ''whether the
sovereignty of the people shall be overshad-
owed by he corporations which they Gre
ate" They say they have "no recommend
ations to make with regard to candidates
other than that every honorable means be
used TO make Gov. Ceveland's defeat GER
tam and overwhelming" This address has
much significance and will unquestionaby
have great influence in shaping the deter
mutation of the farmers of New York and
other States.

which existed, was justifable. Henry's

was plainly told what the result would be if
he continued his stealing Arguments and
threats were of no avail. Had Henry been
allowed to continue in his course the whole
party would have become demoralized in
very short time, and every mans hand
would have been raised against his fellows
in terrible struggle for self-preservation.
A fearful responsibility was imposed upon
Greedy, bat it came to him in the line of du-

Z Ex-Gov. Plaisted has something to saw
this week about the infamous financial
policy of the Republican party. If we are
not greatly mistaken, the Republican party
had developed this "infamous policy long
before Gov. Piaisted left it, Yet We cannot
remember that he raised his voice against
single measure passed by Congress in pursu-
auce of it. The infamy of the Republican
party dawned upon him at about the same
time that the infamy of the Madigan circu-
lar did-after the Ex-Governor had conclud-
ed that be had squeezed out of the Republic
