Being conscious Of the legislation
country, and being In full sympathy
with these purposes, We sought ad-
| mission Into the order. OF course
We did not propose that any OF our
| liberties should he abridged or that
the order which We desired to enter
should In anywise conflict With our
| opinions or convictions. At the out
set We were assured that nothing In
the obligation which we were 10 take
would conflict with our religious and
political convictions. With this
assurance we proceeded.
1--WE felt that 10 labor for the az
ricultural classes In the silence Of
economical government In q strict
ly non-partisan spirit was q duty
every good citizen owed 20 his state
and his country. We consider the
constitution Of the Alliance 30 broad
that Republicans, Democrats, Green
hackers and all could stand upon it
and through their respective parties
work hand In hand for the consume
ton Of the reforms sought. This
was, and is, the intention OF q great
many Alliance men to-day. They
are honestly striving 10 benefit the
masses-the bread winners Of this
country, but they have preference Of
parties through which reforms are to
he brought about. In the southern
states, where the Democratic party
IL In power, the Alliance II working
that party. In none ri the southern
states has the Alliance gone outside
Of the Democratic party 10 nominate
candidates for state. county and dis
trlet or congressional Offices. ALI
ance men attend the Democratic prI-
maTies, and II their candidate II de-
feated they acqulesce In every case,
aud support the nominee. no matter
whether he was q banker, lawyer or
capitalist. They were working In
strictly non-partisan spirit within
their own party.
At the outset the Alliance deter
mined they would not have candi-
dates who had been office seekers
ever before. But how IL Il with Prof.
HIllman In this county? An old
ofIlce-holder aud seeker! How II u
with Mr.. Levitt? A candidate sev-
eral times. Aud 10 secure the pres
ent candidacy he has strIven hard,
coquettlDg with the Alliance In great
shape for many day even joining
n secret order 10 gain his point.
The Farmer concludes Rs follows:
There may be others In the ALI
Rnee In this section who will ALLOW
Glover and his professional agitatOrs
to bully aud force them 10 support O
ticket fixed up In secret caucus, but
they are scarce. The voters Of Kan
sas are not owned by Glover or any
other man, and notwithstanding his
brand of traitor will vote as they
please In November"
We do not desire to make further
comment.
