he never went into society. The pastors

ATTEMPTED ABDUCTION.
II ATon.Year.Old Heir the Victim OF Bold
COnspirators.

BALTIMORE, Nov. ia bold attempt
was made last night TO abduct Bruce,
the ten-year-old son OF George P.Nye.
Mrs. Nye, ihe mother OF the child, is
a daughter Of the late Calvert Bruce
Russ, OF St. Thomas, Ont, and is widely
known and we'll conncctedi in Detroit.
The father OF Mrs. Nye was twice
married and died, as was supposed,
intestate, leaving two families of chill.
dren. The estate was a large one and
has never been settled up. A short
time ago will was brought to light in
which Mr.. Russ bequeathed most Of his
property TO Mrs Nye and her three chill
dren, a girl Of sixteen, q girl OF nine,
called Beatriee, and the little hoy,
George Howard Bruce Nyc.
The boy was entiCed away from home
by youth, who WIS joined at the cor
ner by m elderly man. A sister SAW
him in strange company, and, fearing
that all was not right, followed and tried
to persuade the boy 10 come back. The
man held on to him, however, and the
little girl hurried home and told her
mother, who in turn informed the po.
lice. A general order was issued to look
ont for the boy and late. last night he
was found wandering aimlessly about
Mrs. Nye, who is about 10 years Of age,
said that this had not been the first time
the attempt had been made to spirit
away her children, and, in her opinion,
there was a deeply.laid plot at the
bottom Of the attempted abduction OF
little Bruce. The boy himself says that
the men held him by the arm and was
leading him away, but when his captors
found that the little girl was following
at distance they released him and fed,
evidently fearing that they would be
recognized. Mrs. Nye believes that
others interested in the property want
to get the children in their power SO as
to bring the mother to terms.

THE FARMER IN POLITICS.

For two years this paper has adj
monisbed the brethern that the time
was approaching when their patience,
their faith, their loyalty and their
manhood, as Alliance men, would be
put to the test. To redress our wrongs
and 10 obtain relief from discriminat-
ing and oppressive Legislation and to
effect those great economic reforms
which are absolutely essential to the
peace and prosperity Of the country
will require an unwavering adherence
to the principles Of right and justice,
conservative, patriotic action and the
highest moral courage We must re-
cognize the fact that on no line Of ac-
tion contemplated by our order, will
we be confronted by such stubborn
resistance as in our effort to secure
reform in Legislation, State and Ma
tional.
American politics, under the dom
ineering and oorrupting influences Of
capital and corporate power have be-
come an engine for the oppression
and impoverishment of the many to
the enrichment and building I'D of
the few. To-day, the fen are the
strong and the many are the tCedk.
To-day the feU control Legislation,
through professional and corrupt
politicians. Hence, to secure needed
Legislative reforms, that class OF polit-
iCians who are the willing tools Of
monopoly and corporate power, must
be displaced or supplanted And just
here will come the tug Of war. When,
by q general effort, the people shall
rise and demand the displacement OF
those who have betrayed our interests
by false promises or by open neglect
Of duty, we will find that they will
strongly contest every inch of ground,
supported and encouraged as they
will be, by the corporations and CAPT
talists of the land.
It has come to pass that the 'CiIIing
servamt Of the people on the stump, is

the hall of legislation 1t has come
to pass that few arrogant and die
tatorial, self-constituted political bos-
ses in the parties, assume the right to
control, with iron hand, the policy and

people the rightto do their own think
ing. They are emboldened in this
high handed and audaoious assump-
ton Of power by the lordly masters
whom they serve. They assume the
right to make nominations, to dictate
candidates and Che policy Of their
party, and should any man or men
dare 10 question their right or wisdom,

The Mississippi senators, speaking for
the democrats Of their state, have, in the
open senate, publicly commended Secre-
tary Proctor's action on the occasion of
Jefferson Davis death. They have
thanked him for the dellcacy and CON
sideration for southern feeling with
which he performed his duty. They
have condemned the eiHgy affair as free
ly as anyone in the senate. The only
difference is that they have condemned
It as the act Of perverse individuals and
an outrage to the feelings of the Mlssls-
sippi people, while the republicans have
insisted on treating 1t as a public act in
dicative Of the sentiments that govern
the state--a matter to be investigated by
congress with view to penal action by
the federal government against the state.
When asked by the democrats why SINH
lar action should not be taken against
Kansas because some republicans in that
state burned President Cleveland in efilgy,
or against Indiana because a republican
club there burned President Harrison In
efflgy, the republican side is dumb.

structions to protect from seizure or re-
moval British vessels engaged in sealing at
distances greater than three miles from

prevent single captures being made here
