o the Editor Of the Press:

To the Editor OF the Press:
Mr.. Frank probably had no intention Of
founding new school of political economy,
when he made his Alfred speech, but his
doctrine Of prices is greatly:at variance with
the facts Of business. In order to give his
new doctrine of prices good start he named
some large figures. Said he, I'VE export an
nually about s6OO.OO0OOO OF agricultural
products"
This must have sounded loudly in the ears
of the Democratic farmers of York. No one
knows better than our brother Frank, the
rhetorical advantage Of good start. But
how about the facts? Our agricultural ex-
ports for 1888, ending June 3Otb, were as fol-

PEOPLE would have much more con-
tidence in the sincerity of senators
who so bitterly denounce proposed
Legislation in Congress if they would
vote as they talk. Our junior sena-
tor talked all right on the silver ques-
tion, yet in the end voted for one Of
the most Infamous measures that ever
disgraced the Legislation Of any coun-
try. He denounced the monstroCity
known as the Mckinley tariff bill in
unmeasured terms, yet in the final
round up he was found with the bal
ance Of the herd in the same corral.
Ingalls, postponed his tariff speech
to u more auspicious occasion. 1t
does not matter, however, how any of
them talk. When it comes to voting
the caucus fixes that and 1t has been
as we'll known ever since the passage
of the silver bill just how Senator
Plumb would vote on the final passage
Of the Mckinley bill as it is known
to-day, He has played a grand farce
to applauding galleries and sold out
the interests Of his people.

their products; unjust tariffs have re-
pressed their industries" and both
sections have become aware that their
alienation by factions has been for
the purpose Of preying upon them,
and that it is maintained only for the
political aggrandizement of dema-
gogues and shysters. Both sections
have become aware that sectional
hatred is not calculated 10 promote
the interests OF a great nation. IL has
been the noble mission Of the alliance
TO accomplish this result, and TO
hasten the day Of ultimate unifcation.
It is as representatives Of this great
brotherhood that the southern dele
CATION is to visit our state alliance,
and by mutual fraternal greetings
promote the coming unifcation. The
state central committee Of the peoples
party have determined to make their
visit the occasion Of a great demon
stration that shall exhibit the recipro-
cation Of the people of Kansas of the
pacific spirit manifested by our south
ern brethren. On Thursday, October
18th, therefore, all sub,alliances,
Knights of Labor assemblies, citizens
alliances, trades assemblies, and in
dustrial organizations of whatever
name are invited to participate in
this demonstration Two large and
beautiful United States flags will be
presented 10 the two industrial organ
izations making the largest and finest
display on that occasion. This offer
is open to competition without regard
to locality Of the organization. De-
tails of arrangements will be pub,
lished hereafter.
We expect dismal howl to go up
from the republican press warning
the people against the invasion of
Kansas by "rebel brigadiers," but lot
us remember that these hirling mer-
cenaries would keep us "estranged
only to prey upon us, and maintain
political supremacy by our aliena-

shall hasten the day of the unihca-
