To a man up tree the nominations
made by theAlliance party for county
officers look most decidedly Democra-
tic. The nominees for auditor, sheriff,
register of deeds, treasurer, judge of
probate and coroner, ,are all Democrats,
or rather were Democrats prior to
joining the Alliance. Frank Smith,
candidate for treasurer, was formerly
Republican, but voted for Cleve'
land in 1884. Here are six Demo
Gratis, and the candidates for county
attorney, superintendent of schools
and surveyor, three light offices, are
or were Republicans. The Demo
Gratis take the lions share, the Re-
publicans get few crumbs, while the
Prohibitiopists don't get even smell.
We were present at the convention,
and when it was announced that
those old Democratic wheel horses,
Henry Baldwin and T. E. Newell, had
deserted the Democratic party and
come out for the Alliance ticket
"from governor down. we said to
ourself. ''What is to become of the
Democratic party of Stevens county!'
1t looked as though the Alliance had
either gobbled the Democratic party
or that the Democrats had taken pos
session of the Alliance party and COB

who does not own farm and live on
it, can be admitted as a member OF
the Alliance and be allowed to take
part in making Alliance nominations.
1t strikes us that these principles,
rules and regulations smack strongly
of Known othingism, which existed
years ago. The Know-Nothings did
not object to any one voting their
ticket, but they did strongly object,
as does the Alliance party, to any
one, except a Know-Nothing, taking
any part in making nominations. To
be sure, at the recent state Alliance
convention representatives of the
Labor Union were invited TO take
part in the convention, with the
understanding that Alliance men were
to be nominated, and not Labor
Union men. In fact the Labor Union
delegates present were the guests OF
the Alliance-Farmers Alliance. But
supposing the merchants, mechanics
and business men of Stevens county
had elected delegates to the Farmers
Alliance convention, does any one
believe that they would have been adj
mitted! OF course not. The call for
the convention specified that each
alliance in the state was entitled to so
many delegates, and of course no one
outside of the order would be admit
ted in the convention us delegetes, to
assist in making nominations for the
benefit of all those who "toil in the
sweat of their face" Every one who
claimed a seat in the Alliance conven-
tion was met by the old Know
Nothing challenge: "Have you seen

Morris tribune., 1890-08-06

The county ticket placed in field by
the Farmers Alliance is composed of
gentlemen generally known by the
people of Stevens county. They are
men who stand well in community,
and so far as we know, perfectly COM
petent to discharge the duties of the
respective offices for which they have
been nominated, and If elected no
doubt would prove acceptable officers.
While we say this much for the ticket,
of course it cannot be expected that
the TRIBUNE will support it, as the
editor cannot be admitted as a men,
ber of the party whichplaced the ticket
in the field, not being properly quail
fed according to the constitution and
bylaws Of the Alliance order. But
we are are free to say that there are
men on the Alliance legislative and
county ticket whom we think it would
be well for the Republican party to
endorse, and we earnestly hope it will,
as it would give us pleasure to advo-
cate their election.

Referring to the manner in which
the state Alliance nominations were
made and the effect those nominations
will have, the st. Paul Northwestern
Farmer says: s'The facts in the case
are that, driven from the demagogues
whom they had learned to distrust,
the convention felt that it was neces-
sary to do something before going
home, so they fell back on Owen, (who
had been camp follower in the inter-
ests of Hall and Donnelly, and was
supposed to be entirely disinterested),
to head ticket which might better
have been filed from among their own
ranks; they then made up the rest of
the ticket In a reckless indiscriminate
way. Most OF them are sorry for it
already. So far as party politics go,
we cannot see wherein the farmer
will gain by giving his vote to the
farmer-labor.candidate in Minnesota.
Owen is republican--so is Merriam.
Farmers of this state know the kind Of
administration the latter has given

We find no real objection to the
declaration of principles promulgated
by the recent state Alliance conven-
ton. The platform is all right
enough, and the only serious objection
we have to the party, is the fact that
no one but members of certain
class can be admitted into the party
and allowed to take part in making its
nominations. The constitution of the
Alliance states who shall be eligible
to membership of this party, and no
alliance can be organized without
first obtaining a charter signed by the
secretary and grand mogul of the
state alliance. John Lathrop, secre-
tary of the state alliance, gives no.
tice in the Farm, Stock and Home,
that ''On receipt of a request, signed
by at least seven farmers, and accom-
panied by two dollars, he will send
a charter for a subordinate alliance.
