EDITOR OF THE Sun.
Dear Sir-Never in the history Of
this district has democracy been in a
situation where it stood in need of
wise and impartial counsel more than
at the present crisis. 1t is necessary
that no action be taken without due
deliberation and Investigation. The
action reported by the press to have
been taken by the democratic CON-
mittee of this district is incompre-
hensible to many Of the we'll wishers
of the party. The question is asked /,
'sby what authority and for what pur.
pose have we been sold outl" What
benefit have or are we to receive by
the endorsement of the, farmers al
lance nomination at Graceyille. Can
we expect anything in return. 1t Is
true that the alliance is composed ct
democrats and republicans alike, and
we heartily endorse the resolutions
enunciated and promulgated by them
at their convention. But there Is
something more important and vital
to us thau all that. There is a prin.
ciple at stake involving one of the
Inherent rights Of man, The organi.
zation since its inception, has COM
pietely ignored the fact that demo.
Gratis had any rights, that they, as an
organization, were bound to respect.
The first and most important thing
with the organization in its selection
of candidates las been that his ere
publicanism is unquestioned." They
have carried to the utmost extent the
principle of the domination of the
majority over the minority. In other
words republican politicians have
captured the farmers alliance. We
ask again what is to be gained by the
endorsement! This action has placed
the several counties, particularly Big
Stone, at the mercy Of the dominant
party. It has destroyed every pros
pect of any concession in local po.
litics. This county casts about one
third democratic votes and for thai
reason would be entitled to at least
one county officer. Under a favorable
com bination we could dictate as much
or more. It would seem, however
from all appearances that the republi
cans have dictated terms to tho far
mers' alliance at least So far as ths
representative from this county i.
concerned.
It does not take a very far-seeing
man to determine what the consider;l
tion for the compact was when VIZ
consider that the political leaders Of
the republican party of Big Stone
county, who have been ensconced II
office for five years last past are MOI
to be attacked in their citadel although
the walls are already preached.

We clip from the Big Stone County
Herald:
On the very day when the farmers
alliance convention Of the 42nd district
was deliberating SO wisely ,unselfshly
and well, the Morris Tribune publish
ed the following concerning R.J Hall
and Darlington Phelps, chairman and
secretary Of the alliance district COM
mittee:
cit seems that these men are des-'
peFately anxi0ns to get into office. and
being afraid to submit their claims to
the conventions OF the political parties
TO which they pretend to belong, are
apparently prostitutIng the influence
Of the organization under their care
to their own private advantage, hop
ing to ride the Alliance wave into the
legislature. To this end district
convention has been called to mect at
sGraceyille today, to put in nomination
asenatOr an representative.
The calling Of this Alliance
convention at this time seems wholly
unnecessary and more and more like
manipulation on the part of those
calling 1t. The work of the conyen-
tion to-day will show whether these
views are correct or not.
And the work of the convention
shows that s.these views were abs0-
lutely without foundation, and gives
to them 30 vicious q look that it
seoms certain the editor OF the Tri-
buno will apologize to Messrs. Hall
and Phelps, both Of whom appeared
in the convention with solid delega-
tiOns from their own county but abso-
Iutely refused to allow their names TO
be used.
It would seem from the foregoing
that there were opinions held, in the
district, other than those which the
Tribune has been endeav0ring to
manufacture in connection with the
farmers alliance conventiAn. For the
sake iof fair play, It is 70 be regretted
that after Messrs. Hall and Phelps
had demonstrated by their invlted
communications to the Tribune that

WHILE many OF the most prominent
Democratic representatives in the Forty
ninth Congress are being consigned to pri-
vate life It is gratifying to notice the hearty
Endorsement given to the Republican
leaders In the House by their respective
constituencies. Reed, Of Maine, aud his
three able colleagues are already returned
by good majoritos, Butterworth, OF Ohio,
Is as good as reelected, and Hiscock, Of
New York, is sure Of his seat as long as he
cares to hold IT.. The Democratic Brooklyn
Eagle, referring to the nomination Of Mr..
Iiscock by tho Republicans OF the Syr-
acuse district, remarks that following the
example Of the southern Democrats and OF
their own party in the west and some of
the New England States his constituents
have united in maintaining uubrokeT and
further extending the record OF his service
in the House OF Representatives. "This
action" says the Eagle, "stands forth In
striking contrast with that of voters In
constituencies which Clamor constantly for
rotation in Office based on the claims OF To-.
cality. The policy which displaces COM

career Of an incompetent Official as in pro-

advantage to the public" This dellyerance
Of our Brooklyn contemporary is Just as
sensible as II 1t had been promulgated by a
Republican convention. The plan OF rota-
ton adopted in many distrlcts-to give

serious detriment Of every interest involved

The suggestion that "the President could
stlll further show the good will of the
Democratic party TO the negro race by APP
pointing few black men to office in Mis-.
sissippi, Louisiana, and Alabama" has
moved the New Orleans States, an enthu-
siastic advocate OF Democracy, TO remark
"if Democratic darky could be found In
either OF the states named" IL would be In
order TO celebrate the discovery by ap-
pointing him to ofllce.n Then we have
this significant declaration: "a Demo-
cratic negro is a myth, and the Republican
negro will, in the course Of time, be rare
curiosity" The Plttsburg Commercial CT
scttc, quoting this remark Of the States,
says:
There is nothing truer than that "a Demo-
cratic negro is q myth" and 1t is equally true
that, under the tyrannical and brutal system
practiced by white Democrats in the south,
even the Republican negro will ere long be.
come "a rare curiosity" The truth Is, rs Mr.
Blaine has expressed 1t, the political power OF
thegovernment has been wrested by the south
through the Acknowledgement Of more than
six million American citizens, who, with more
than one million voters, were unable 70 choose
single eleCtor. II free government is TO sur
vive, despotism like this must be crushed out.
This is the doctrine that the NATIONAL
REPUBLICAN has been preaching for long
time, the doctrine that this journal will
continue to preach until the country is
aroused to just appreciation of the fact that
the government has been wrested by fraud
from its constitutional foundation and
stands on an illegtimate basis. The power
now welded by the Democracy is power
usurped. Representations based on dis
franchised citizens gave the Democratic
party majority OF presidential electors in
1884 and is depended upon to elect a
Democratic President in 1888. How long
will the north bear this for the sake Of good
times in shops and storesH How long will
greed for gain stand on the neck Of honor ?
