There seems to be general misappre-
hension as to the relation existing be-
tween the Farmers Alliance and the so.
called Peoples party. In the minds of
some the the two are identical. Some of
the leaders in the Peoples Convention
seemed to think that they were acting
in and for the Farmers Alliance, and
many members of the Alliance, not un-
derstanding just how the political move
ment had its origin, seem to feel in some
sense bound to abide by its action.
Every member of the organization is
bound by pledge to defend even with
his life certain great principles of the
order, but he is under no obligation of
any kind to support any action of the
Peoples party.
The sixteen delegates to the County
Alliance who initiated the step came
uninstructed on the poins of nominating
a ticket, for the question had not been
discussed in the Su bordinate Alliances.
They did not represent the sense OF the
organization on that question, and the
County Alliance has not yet had oppor.
tunity to pass upon their action, having
had no meeting i,lce this scheme was
SO suddenly spru :: upon them. The
primary convention at which delegates
t. the county convention were chosen
were in no sense Alliance meetings
though in some cases they were conduct.
ed under that impression. Some of the
most influential delegations were elected
by primary conventions much smaller
than their own number, SO that their
selection was by no means an express
ion of their own Subordinate Alliance
on the question of separate political
action. Let it be clearly understood
that the Farmers Alliance is under no
obligation to support the Peoples plat.
form nor the Peoples ticket, but will have
an occasion to state its position at the
approaching meeting of the County ALI
ance.

100 Doses One Dollar
The Fair.ElectiOn Bill.

The national election bill is a moderate
measure. 1t is not force bill; it does
not interfere in any way with local elec-
tions or local government. It does not
involve extravagante expenditure, nor is it
sectional in it's scope. 1t does not seek
to put the negro or any other class OF
citizens in control anywhere, but aims
merely to secure to every man who
ought to vote the right to vote and to
have his vote honestly counted. No
one knows those facts to be true better
than the opponents oil the bill; but their
difficulty is that they can not bring for
ward their real and honest objection,
and 80 they resort to much shrieking
and many epithets. They believe,
whether rightly or wrongly, that fair
elections mean the loss of the National
House at least nine times out of ten to
the party to which they belong. They
believe that fair elections mean the rise
of Republican party in every Southern
State, led by and in good part composed
of white men, native to the ground,
whose votes are now suppressed under
the preterse of maintaining race suprem.
acy as against the negro. They believe
that the law threatens the disappearance
of the race issue on which they found
their power, and the fall of the narrow
oligarchy which for SO many years has
ruled with iron hand in the Southern
States q in the national conventions of
the Democratic party.
The resi- objection to the bill, in other
words, comes ..om the fact that one of
the two great parties believe that free
elections imperil their power. They
know that by this bill the United States
officers, taken from both parties, are ap.
pointed by the courts, the body farthest
removed from politics. They know that
these United States officers will be held
in check by local officers and be utterly
unable to interfere with the proper con-
duct of the election. But they know
also that the result will be publicity,
and they believe that in consequence of
publicity many districts will be lost to
them. This law is as fair to one party
as another; but if one party is cheating,
that party will suffer, and where the
cry against the law is loudest it is the
beet evidence of its necessity, and proves
that those who resist it profit by the
wrong-doing which it seeks to cure. :

When the organizers of the new fourt

When the organizers of the new fourth
party first determined to nominate a
county ticket, we pointed out that a
candidate could not with very good
grace run for high salaried Office on a
low salary platform. In order to obviate
this difficulty the convention adopted
a resolution pledging the candidates, if
elected, to return into the treasury all
money in excess OF ST. 1000. Thus at
their first move they have placed their
candidates in false and ridiculous
position apd fulfilled the prediction that
they would injure the great farmer
movement at the start. 1t seems mt to
be known to these founders that the
oiiyr 20 return part of legal salary to
the c"rnty as a means to gain rot.- has
been declared by the courts to De against
public policy, ii not a crime, and tha: an
OF cial who is elected on such y ir,.,"nse

The Republican County Convention
will meet on Monday and every town.
ship should be fully represented. The
principles Of the Republican party cover
all the requirements of the peculiar
political situation now existing. There
is no occasion for Republican to be
lured off by side issues, to lend his sup.
port to the free trade movement, and
thus directly or indirectly contribute to
the success of the Democratic party.
Republicans fail to recognize in the tariff
the cause of the agricultural depression,
and are heartily in favor of all measures
for reducing taxation and equaling bur.
dens that are not aimed at Protection.
