History of the Alliance.

The organization, which started in the
state of New York in 1878, moved west
ward, then southwark, and then up along
the Atlantic coast states, until its mem
bership embraced officially few weeks
aso 1900, coo. and alliances are forming at
the rate of one day in some OF the states.
Over 1000 alliances were formed IN a
single year in Georgia, which now has
$500 local organizations, and Texas near
~ 5000. 1t is said that Kansas has the
largest membership of any western state,
numbering over 100000 farmers, farm

The Alliance County Convention
met at Pipestone on Saturday,
the 26th ult. The convention was
made up of representatives from
the different Farmers Alliances
throughout the county, the work
ingmen's association and the Pro-
hibltion party. They nominated a
county ticket composed of men
who have always identified themselves
with the best interests of Pipestone
county. The deliberations of the
convention was not the consumma-
ton of any pre-arranged political
scheme, but their action was governed
only by and for the people and tax
PAYERS of the county. The men on
the ticket, with perhaps few excep-
tions, are we'll known in the county,
and men who have the bestinterests
of Pipestone at heart and will, if
elected, perform the duties of their
respective Offices in the interest OF the
people and to the best of their ability.
They are not the candidates OF any
political Clique or star chamber
caucus, but their nomination was
brought about by an open discussion
and free ballot Of the people in
convention assembled.
Il want to submit few incontrOv-
ertible facts. The following is a brief
review of our condition, the cause and
it's effect: Blaine places the wealth Of
thenation at 100000, 100000. But
is this wealth in the hands of those

selves in a hurricane of strife with or
gained capital. they almost univers-
ally failed to realize the expectations
they had awakened. 1t was newt
able: They were mere aggregation
of l 200, 900 souls, knit together. for
the most part only by the negative
bond of discomfort. But this very
organization cost an incalculable
expenditure of money, and selfsacrific-
ING effort. and it were worse than
folly to permit that expenditure to
be regarded as irretrievably lost.
In the years OF comparative quiet
that have ensued they should have
learned the necessity of a positive
bond; constructive policy, single in
it's aim, clear cut, unmistakable, and
therefore confidence>inspiring, in it's
purposes. We believe, as we read
their weekly organ, the Journal of
the Knights OF Labor Ga paper that
crows continuously firmer in it's
utterances), that they stand to-day
as a body for the overthrow of the
wage system, for the abolition of the
divorce between the producer and
the means OF production, for a policy,
not a patching up WORKOUT system
but of replacing it with a system, in
accordance with the advanced require
ments OF the times To quote from
one of the Journals recent editorials !:
"Whenever men do not fully own the
entire result Of the labor the essence
of human slavery exists. Declara-
tions of independence and emancipa-
ton proclamations may gild the
shackles. but the ownership of other
mems labor is slavery" Such dec
laration is very different from a de-
mand for short hours or higher pay
':the entire result of their labor" can
only be guaranteed by the laborers
having full control OF the means
necessary to labor.

rock in Nottingham shaft of the Lehigh

this morning, which drove accumulated
gas into a gangway where ten men had
been at work with naked lamps and an ex-
plosion soon followed. All the men were
more or less seriously injured and badly
burned Oh face, hands and body; Peter
BEEN was cut upon head, his hands and
face were badly burned; John Crossln,
with his mule, was buried beneath falling
rocks. Body not recovered. VIM. Roberts

1t has been learned that in addition to
the casualties reported as having occurred
at Nottingham shaft to-day, five men are
imprisoned in the mine, and there is little
hope of their being taken out alive. At the

John Dunston, fire boss, was on his way
from the fifth to the sixth lift, carrying
his naked lamp, and this it is said fired
the body Of gas which exploded with great
force, shattering the gangways and break
ing the tlmberS, causing large quantities of
roof rock and coal to fall. The debris
closed out the men who were in the in
terror of the mine making repairs, entomb-
ing John CrOssin, David Williams, John
Davis, Ed. Morris and an unknown man.
1t is not known when those outside will be
able to reach the men. Nottingham shaft.
which was the greatest anthracite coal
mine in the world, is nearly a total wreck.
