The recent wind and rain storm has been

In Boston the storm was the most severe

wind blowing gale nj times, which was the
cause Of no little damage. The streets were
flooded with muddy water and the sidewalks

THERE WAS TOO MUCH RUN ABOARD.

The Boston Herald tells of a steamer
bound for tho west coast OF Africa that
had on boari fourteen missionaries, four
hundred and sixty tons Of gunpowder, and
something like ten thousand casks OF rum.
In such delightful way our modern civili-
zation mixes up the things OF this life with
the hopes of the next life Tho poor savage
however, will pay his money and take bis
choice, but 1t strikes us that there was either
too much rum or too little religion on that
steamer. -Ne,U York Herald.

is responsible for class favoritism and
the depressed condition Of industrial
interests, and that the only consistent
remedy for Che evil is political action
Hence, without doubt, the alliance
proposes to 90 into politics We hope
this is clear up to this point. Now a
a word as TO an independent party;
Whenever the principles and the
platform Of the alliance have been
presented to the old parties they have
been repudiated The party press
characterizes our measures as abso-
lutely impracticable, and makes them
the subject Of ridicule and bitter sar-
casm. What then is left for us to
dol Do we mean anything by the
declarations we have made, and the
resolutions we have adopted in every
state, county and sub-alliance in the
landY If we do not then we would bet
tor disband and make no further pre-
tense Of demanding change, II we
do mean anything, the attitude Of the
old parties and the policy Of the party
press will compel us to resort TO inde-
pendent political action. There seems
to be no other alternative. That we
mean TO enter the political arena no
one need to doubt II we make an
independent movement and nominate
OF our own it will be un-
derstood why this step is taken.

that the supreme council that met in

resolutions not to purchase any more
coffee after the LIST day Of May until
the price should be 20 cents a pound
or less. Suffice it to say this COM
ment was attached to another article

contribution, and we don't blame him.
He claims TO be a member Of the al
lance, but we venture a years sub
scription to the ADVOCATE that he
prevaricates. He succeeds in but one
thing, and that is in disclosing his
ignorance of public events. To Illus
trate, he says Senator Ingalls, sis the
author of the bill granting arrears of
pensions" to soldiers,
II he had not been ashamed Of his
name aud address we would send him
a copy Of the ADVOCATE of April 30,
containing the senator's record on
the pension question, and ask him to
study it carefully and see how little
he knows Of the subject he is writing
about. The ear marks of this writer
are 80 distinct that no danger is ap-
pretended that he Will be mistaken

poses. Though he appears before

THE PaoIa Times says of Senator
Ingalls,; "That he is in a position 10
help the farmers Of Kansas no one
can deny If he would. Whether he
will or not depends, in our mind,
upon whether he is treated fairly,
and is dsked 10 do 80" Farmers,
how do you like this picture Of our
senator, drawn by one Of his friends
and admirers, as a plea for continued
preferment7 He is now nearing the
close Of his third term in the senate,
is plainly declared 10 be in a position
where he can help his farmer constit-
uents il he would, yet waiting TO
have you ask him TO do the duty he
was elected to do, and to see how he
is to be treated in the future Is fair
treatment to be based on meritorious
service in the performance Of duty,
