The Alliance Tribune says that the
Kansas State Alliance has no State
Organ and will not name one until
its next annual meeting. Perhaps
the Tribune knows more about this
matter than the State board and the
Officers Of the State Alliance. They
say they have a State Organ, and
that Organ atpresent is THE ADVOCATE.

tho details Of any one Of these plans,
il 10 important that all unite in the
support Of that which has received
the largest endorsement. The de-
mands which were made the basis OF
agreement between the Farmers AL
lance and Industrial Union and the
Knights Of Labor at ST. Louis in De-
cembor last, have received almost uni
versal endorsement by all the various
labor organizations Of the country
These arc published in THE ADVOCATE
every week under the head of "Our
Platform" These should be
made the basis Of petitions from
every sub-alliance in tho country and,
dispensing with all other schemes, the
influence OF the entire order should
be concentrated upon these, and their
enactment into laws be insisted upon
as the only result that will be accept
cd by the people. Whenever mem
ber Of Congress or Of the State Legis-
lature or other official places himself
on record either as opposing or re-
fusing to support these measures,
mark him with the brand Of Cain, and
SEQ TO II that he retires to the quiet
shades Of private life after the expir-
alton Of his present term Of service
We know that the necessities Of the
people are great They need some
thing that will afford immediate relief,
Their homes are in danger, and they
feel that they cannot wait for re-
sponse 70 their appeals While this
is alltrue it lis as well for the people to
recognize the fact that they are TO be
doomed to many disappointments.
This struggle is to be no child's play.
Corporations and combinations Of
capital that have chosen members Of
congress, Of state legislatures, presi-
dents Of the United States and gov
ernors Of states, as we'll as judges Of
the courts, and have shaped the legis-
lation Of tho past thirty years in the
interest OF their insatiate greed, will
not relinuqishe their powers without
a tremendous struggle In this con
test they all work together. They
control primaries and party conyen-
tons. |hey name the delegates and
tho candidates for Office. They die
tate the platforms and the public
policies of both political parties, and
the people have voted for their men
and their measures through all these
years. All this must be changed
The people must make the platforms,
dictate the public policy, and choose
The officers Of State aud Nation. Tn
til this is done there is little hope Of
raiief All this will require time and
during the struggle, many will un-
quessionably lose their homesy but
this should only add to the determi-
nation ofthe people, We are living
not alone for ourselves, but for our
and upon the result Of this
conflict depends the kind Of heritage
We shall transmit to our children.

The Topeka Capiialof Sunday last
hos a double loaded editorial Of over

president Harrison's idea that within
our borders a general condition Of
prosperity prevails. The general cry

the loaiers who never did catch on
in life down east, in the middle states
or out west, and who meet in SOLEMN
conclave daily tomourn the decay OF
business, tho deafness Of the town,
and TO bemoan the condition OF 'us la
boring people'n
AS a sufficient commentary upon
this statement we would call attention
to the following extract from letter
Just received at this Office from a
farmer who must be classed OF course
as one Of these professional croakers.
He says; $50 very many Of us have
had to renew our mortgages that it
makes money scarce. ], myself, had
to renew mine and it cost me Sl2O in
cash commission TO do it,"
This is thecondition, not OF a single
individual or a singlecommunity. It
is general in all except the older por-
lions Of the state. The above is but
a sample Of dozens Of letters on file in
this Office from farmers in all parts Of
the state who inclose rs and so cents
for subscriptions for three or six
stating as a reason for not
more that the interest, the
taxes and the commission for renewal
Of the mortgages has consumed the
proceeds Of the years labor and they
have not the means remaining to
crafty their desires for anything out
side Of the absolute necessities Of life.
Does the Capital expect to convince
these men by hesophistries Of double
loaded editorials, that their condition
is purely imaginary and that those
who are making these facts public are
,roazers and worthless loafersY We
publish in another column one Of the
letters we have referred to entire, in
which the writer states that his own
condition is that of his neighbors,
many Of whom are old soldiers who
fought to maintain the integrity Of the
-he Nation. Wecould fllour columns
with similar letters, not from one
community alone but from every part
If the state,
The Capital says: "As western In
lustries are depressed, or Che fnan-
,ial situation embarrassed for any rea-
son, eastern capital grows timid, and
,ho money for general improvements
s curtailed, and the people at once
EEL the effects in a lack Of currency"
It will occur to thethoughtful read
,r that in a country like Kansas, with
, productiveness unsurpassed, with a
present crop largely in excess OF the
lome demand and with millions Of
men, women and children all
,ver the world in absolute need Of her
her people should not
depend upon the invest
nent Of eastern capital in general inn
,rOvements, for meagre supply Of

speculation, but not Of the people the
value Of whose possessions is depre-
ciated, Iii a result Of the especula-
tions Of capitalists to whose care the
control Of the currency Of the country
has been committed. These specu-
lations have been 80 manipulated un-
der the fostering care Of tho govern
ment that the depreciation applies to
all possessions except the one in
whose interest they have been con
Quoted.
Again we read; "What is the stu
alton in Kansas to-day7 That tho
crops are not bringing the producer
anything like what they shouldisplain
and that there is not the activity in
tho various lines Of trade and manu-
features which we had in 1897 is also
true, but there is another side 10 all
this that is 80 continually lost sight
Of that the Capital proposes in this
familiar talk to bring it to mind.
In the first place the condition in
Topeka and all over Kansas is not one
half as bad as the ecroakers would have
people believe it to be. 1t is true we
are in debt and mortgaged, and 80
they arein Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and
all over the country"
The sophistry and gall in the a.
bove ontitle it to first rank in that
species Of combination. "It is true
we are in debt and mortgaged," but
this is not a bad state Of affairs, be-
cause others in Ohio, Indiana and Illi-
nois are mortgaged also. It must un.
doubtedly be a source Of great conso-
lation to the man whose home is about
to pass from his hands, ard his family
10 be turned away from the door Of
his humble cottage, to know that
other men and other families are in
like conditions II he could discover
in the list Of unfortunates some who
were even more sorely pressed than
himself, whose families were reduced
to greater extremities, If he could
discover women and children who
were not as well clothed as those Of
his own household, in whom the pangs
Of hunger were more accute, it must
unquestionably afford him supreme
enjoyment
Again we read: "To-day in the
eastern two-thirds Of Kansas there
are more mortgages being paid than
are being made. Loan companies
have become more conservative and
those borrowingmore careful Of the
indebtedness they create. Men are
not making single unnecessary i'm
provement or going into debt"
The Capital might have omitted
the word unnecessary" in the fore
going with perfect consistency. Men
are not making any improvements,
necessary or otherwise at the present
time, and will not while the present
conditions prevail. 1t is a matter of
serious doubt also whether mortgages
are being paid in any part Of tho

The naturalist, the progressive

ing persons will be interested In the
series of six articles on the study of
insects TO be begun in the New York
Ledger of March /. The series is by
Prof. John Ii. COmstOck, of Cornell
University, the eminent naturalist,
and will describe the insect pests
which annually iDjure the fruit and
vegetable crops of the country to the
extent OF Sl0O, 900, 900. Particular at
tention is given to the pests which
ravdse cotton, rice and grain fields
and orchards, gardens and vineyards.

100000 to the cotton crop. He con-
siders the terrible devastations of GER
tain insects, such as the locust in the
West, the potato beetle and the cotton
worm, have been blessings in disguise,
as they have shown the possible pow
ers of those once despised creatures
and have occupied the attention of the
leading scientists of the world to such
an extent, that growers may reason
ably hope that the ravages of the in
sects mentioned may be confined with
in certain bounds. Prof. Comstock
also treats of insects useful to the
farmer. His articles are of the great
