THE STORY OF A NEW PARTY
How Southern Democrats Would Have II
Appear.

That Is n very funny story which
comes from Florida, says the Chicago
Inter Ocedn, about the plot of the North
ern schemers in the recent convention of
the Farmers Alliance. These men, most
of whom are not able To get from the
Republicans the offices they crave, went
10 Florida To turn the Alliance into a
third-party organization. They had no
other object. When the Alliance can
not be made q political machine TO grind
them out offices they will have no use
for it. The Southern element controlled
The Alliance. Its leaders are Democrats,
and they do not propose TO have the
organization turned TO the disadvantage
of the Democratic party. The Northern
delegates were so informed at the out
set. IL the Northern representatives
desired TO form third party in the
North under the care OF the Alliance,
but with new name, they would be
gratiiied. So these farmers for politics
or Office only, from the North, met in a
shed while on an excursion, and, upon a
declaration of principles which one of
them drew from his pocket, they formed
n new party-a dozen of them. The
Democracy applauded this-an Alliance
party for Republicans was, of all things,
the most desirable. The next day the
Alliance met 10 agree upon declaration
OF principles. The Northern delegates

Tariff Bill Reaction.

There has been a notable reaction of
opinion on the Mckinley law in Europe.
Those VINO have studied its provisions
find that IL Is not such sweeping
measure as 10 was represented TO be.
The London Financial Times says that
"tbe excessive unpopularlty" of the
measure abroad "was largely due TO eX-
aggeration on the part of the American
Democrats, who have spared no expense
or misrepresentation in raising opposi-
tion to the scheme" Other English as
well as French papers have been COM
PEELED TO make similar admissions. The
first reports sent across the ocean were
in keeping with eXaggerations which
were circulated in this country.
While the Mckinley law reduces the
duty on many articles and places many
others on the free list the Democrats
have continually dwet upon the few in
stances in which the duty is raised. The
policy of the free trade papers has been
To take one or two articles, like tin or
pearl buttons and predict that the
threatened advance on these goods will
bankrupt the country. The Republicans
believe that the increased duty on these
The true northerner., 1890-12-31

There is no means of knowing how far
the farmers are likely to follow the Al
liance-in what numbers they are likely
TO act with that organization in politics.
If we judge from the experience of the
Greenback party, there is little danger
that the wild and destructive ideas of
the Alliance leaders will ever sway
ma ority of the farmers. The pro-
gramme of the Greenback party was
never as shocking as that put forward
by the Legislation Committee of the
Farmers Alliance in session in Florida.
The foundation error is that more money
must make better times. The Alliance
committee argues that to double the
amount Of money in circulation is to
double prices, but without doubling
the amount of money required to pay
debts. 1t all seems very simple-the
more meney the less its purchasing
power, and consequently the more the
farmer would get for his products, and
at the same time dollar would pay as
much of a debt as now
But nothing I'm finance is as simple as
10 seems 10 be. III money were the sole
medium OF exchange, then an increase
in the amount might be expected to in

Exchange Comment.

A SUGGESTION to the rising politician
Get farm.
DEMOCRATIC success and monetary in
sanity go together.
THE Farmers Alliance is less interest
ed in agriculture than in politics.
A TEXAS paper says Cleveland will be
the nominee of the Farmers Alliance in
1892. Perhaps the Alliance in Texas are
fishermen instead of farmers.
FREE trade with European countries
means the next thing to free trade and
free labor from China.
THE November elections gave the
Democratic party just rope enough, and
we know what il always does when it
gets that.
A GOOD many sagacious Republicans
are hoping for an extra session of the
Fifty-second Congress, i'm order to give
it plenty of rope.
THE new party leaders do not seem TO
have found the lymph that will kill the
Democratic baciIi i'm the constitution Of
a Southern Alliance man.
THE merchants who feel the pinch are
those who believed the free-trade lies
about the general rise of prices uttered
in August, September, and October.
IT is idle to suppose that the Farmers
Alliance will not organize a third-party
movement i'm the South, where il already
controls the machine of the dominant
party. If it materializes at all, IL will be
in the North.

had been opposing the sub-treasury or
Government corn-crib and pawn-Shop
proposition. When, however, it was
proposed in the convention, all the
Northern delegates voted for it. This
was a surprise for the Southern dele
gates. What did it meanP They began
to inquire, and, if the Jacksonville
Times Union is correctly informed, they
found out that such Northern eX-Repub
licans as Nillets, of Kansas, confessed
that they voted for it to make IL an Al
lance issue, which would compel inde-
pendent political action in the South
and disrupt the Democratic party
This was cat of another color:
and so the confessed dishonesty of
Willets and others who voted for the
sub-treasury scheme, in which they
"never believed" was proclaimed. Then
the conspirators disclosed plot To debar
from membership all editors who would
not subscribe to a pledge 10 advocate the
the sub-treasury scheme and all measures
which a legislative board should ap-
prove. AS this board, of which all the
leaders, like Polk and Macune, VINO are
third party men, would be members,
could require the Alliance press, under
this regulation, TO support third-party
movement or drop out, it will be seen
that the scheme was a very neat one.
Its discovery by the jealous Democrats
has well-nigh frightened the wits out of
some of them, who think much more Of
the Democratic party than OF the Al
lance. As this story comes from Demo
cratic sources, and from members of the
Alliance. and discloSes the duplicity of
the Northern leaders in the movement,
it is timely revelation.
The true northerner., 1890-12-31
In Il Nut rhell,

The Farmers Alliance is an aggrega-
tion OF agriculturists led by cOmpara-
lively few politicians who have personal
ends in view. The leaders pretend To
see way to the cure of economic diff
ficulties that are the result of natural
causes. and until the misguided farmers
discover that natural law cannot be re-
versed by political charlatanism the AL
lance may be expected TO flourish and
threaten TO take the reins of government
into its hands The schemes of govern
ment thus far proposed by the Alliance
leaders are as visionary as the hopes that
have been aroused in the breast of the

will stimulate manufacture i'm this coun-
try and that in short time the home
ompetton will reduce the prices 10 a
lower point than now prevails. The free
trade organs make much ado about the
threatened advance Of a quarter of a
cent in the price Of tin cup, but they
intentionally neglect To mention a reduc-
tion of two and one-half cents per pound
on sugar after April next. Which is the
more important? The friends of the
Mckinley law can afford to wait The
verdict of the American people will not
be against the new tariff law when it
has been fairly tested and is fully under
stood. AS the reaction has already come
in England, so it will come here, and the
reaction whan il comes will leave the
Democrats stranded, high and dry

cre1se priccs. But most transactions
are(conducted by credits, a system that
has been extended enormously by the
clearing house. Ii Is important that the
VOLUME should not diminish beyond the
proper proportion OF bank reserve to
credit, but IL does not matter so much II
the volume is increased, since much of
the increase merely dispaces credits,
and has little effect on the price OF
things. The dangerous part OF the Al
lance plan is that which provides that
money may be borrowed from the govern
ment at low and fixed rate of interest,
without any regard for the conditions OF
trade and commerce. .-MiICaukee Sentt-
