know any such animals among us as
you have named poke them out where
we can get at them also, and we will
make life a burden for them from now
till after election. We have nothing
but contempt for the cowardice that
is manifested in such articles as that

title of 'false issues" Come ont from

WILD AND CHnIERICAL SCHEMES.
The Atchison Champion has a half
column Of sympathy for the farmer
in It's Sunday edition; but summarily
dismisses the measures Of relief that
have been proposed by the Farmers
Alliance with the naked statement
that they are "wild and ohimerical"
schemes. Please be a little more ex-
plicit and tell us WHY they are wild
and chimerical. Suppose you take
Senator Stanford's proposition to be-
gin with and tell us why il ia any
more wild and chimerical to loan
money to the farmer en- tho best ga7

loan TO distillers OF whisky, national
bankers or railroad corporations.

ality in the objections TO our alliance
propositions. III they are not based

we are ready to listen. Wo are not
ready, however, TO be cast under foot

the best methods we can discover, and
we shall not down at the mere bid
ding or cease our demands because
the old parties summarily pronounce
them visionary schemes. Those who
oppose us may save great waste OF
words by keeping these facts in mind.
Farmers are not famishing for sym
pathy. They need relief and intend
TO have it.
