MEASURES OBJECTED TO
Among Those Endorsed at the Late
Farmers Alliance.

Special to the Globe.
JAMESTOWN, Jan. 4.-SOme of the
recommendations of the Farmers alli-
ance adopted at their meeting in this
city last month are meeting with con-
siderable opposition. The most objec-
tionable recommendations seem to be
the following: That the immigration
bureau be abolished. and that the law
authorizing the foreclosure OF real es-
tate mortgages by advertisement and
sale be repealed, and foreclosures
made by action in the district court.
The opposition to the latter recOmmen-
sdation comes from the newspaper men.
But there are many in the territory
who consider the appropriation for the
maintenance of the immigration depart
;ment wise one. McClure'S celebrated
hanger has done more to advertise the
territory than any one thing we know
iof. and his .sResources of Dakota is
certainly valuable work. There is
farmer in this county who says we raise
too much No. hard. and that it the
supply were diminished the price would
be higher. Perhaps the Farmers alli
:ance as a body believe there are too
many farmers In The territory, and that
they are raising too much wheat, and
hence are opposed to the continuance of
the immigration bureau, because OPP
posed to an increased farmer p0pula-
ton.
