WASHINGTON, October .. 1890.
The editors and prOprletOrs OF the No
hOndl Economist, organ OF the Farmers Al
lance, are having no end OF worry over
a circular that was recently sent out pY
Colonel T.. J.. Polk, president OF the ALI
ance. 1t seems that the circular which he
intended sending out was first printed IN
the Economist and in the next column
there was an editorial reference to the
same and an extract from the New Orleans
Tines Democrat, in which that paper said:
"The Democrats must carry every district
possible; they cannot AFFORD % lose one IN LOU
isiana. The men who are nghtng M. blan n
ard. or who oppose any Democratic Sanllda ,,
for Con yress IN this state; the men who would
cause discussions In the party ranks today or
bring about a split or division. are allies OF
tho Republicans, cooperating with REEDS Non-
gress 10 Cypress and injure the south, let them
be known for what they really are-enemies Of
white supremacy and civilization"
HOW IT HAPPENED.
The foreman in the Office here in lifting
out the matter for the circular accidentally
put on the end of the same the above
editorial from the TiDsss- Democrat, and %
has stirred up things generally, and the
people at the Economist Office are engaged
at present in telling how it happened,
Colonel Polk is down at Raleigh, n. C.,
and probably does not fully realize yet the
agitation his circular has caused.
INDIANA POLITICAL HISTORY.

The elder English is writing very yalua-
BILE political history of Indiana, and is said
TO have spent thousands of dollars
upon il already in having pictures
OF the public men made. He Will trace
back the ancestry of the men who will fig
ure in the book and this will be of interest
to Virginia for the reason that so many
