majority OF the committee on elections of

adopted, the democrats OF Rhode Island

ruling was that all the negroes standing In

SECRETARY MoHLER comes to the
support of the storage idea in long
letter TO the Topeka Capital from
which the following is an extract:
There ought not to be a bushel OF
corn sold in Kansas at present prices,
and if the means within the reach OF
the farmers themselves were judiciOus.
iy used with but few exceptional cases,
there need not be any sold. Corn at Il
cents a bushel Is as good as gold, and
under the circumstances nov existing
there is not, In my opinion, bank 10
the state that would not cheerfully
loan money at q reasonable rate Oh
corn well cribbed or stored. Corn in
Kansas at II cents a bushel would be
good security for that amount per bush.
el, ard that amount could be borrow
ed by any farmer who Is honestly and
faithfully working to get through 10
solid ground. The security is good be-
cause corn is morally certain to be
worth Is cents per bushel in less than
four months from now, and If fed to
stock % cents or more per bushel would
be realized. Farmers can manage to
hold their corn, but If for any reason
some fail in this way let the Farmers
alliance stand by them in this matter
and put into practical operation the
cardinal principle of their order which
is 1 believe self protection and no
doubt in this way it can be done. Here
is All excellent opportunity for the ALI
ance to practically demonstrate the
power and efficiency of their order to
afford relief to themselves in times of
distress.
