The Sunday Capital comes out in
big headlines: "Foreclosures-A
very cheering exhibit of the condition
OF the farmers and publishes re-
plies from the district clerks of 63
counties, showing that there have
been l 1O3 farms sold at sheriff sale
in these counties the past six
months. The Capital adds:
1T the other So counties make the
same average exhibit, the number Of
foreclosures in Kansas during the
first six months OF the present wear
was about 1850"
What manner Of things are at the
head OF the Republican press of this
state, that they can call such show
ing a cheering exhibit" of the condi-
ton OF the purchasing classes? $3.50
families turned out of home in six
months-or $500 per year-making
total population, five to the family.
OF twenty-six thousand five hundred
human beings turned adrift as pau

forget to take out a policy in the
NATIONAL ALLIANCE AID AssoCIA-
TON.
Nothing tends toward giving you
relief from worry and care, over the
future support of those loved by or
dependent upon you, SO much as an
insurance on your life. The Nation
al Alliance Aid Association is a fra

Alliance members and their families
and will carry your life insurance at
about oNE-F1FTH the price charged
by the old line companies.
1t is your duty and should be your
pleasure to thus provide by insur-
ance against the loss of life as you do
against the loss OF property.

money is debt to bank. All its
interest comes to the bank when with
the principle when the debt is paid and
that means more money than is is
sued. OF all terrible men eaters ever
invented by the Genius of Desolation
the National Bank is the one that
never misses fire, slips a cog, or
shuts it's evil eye! 1t loans and alb
serbs more than it prints to loan. It
loans, and sucks, and absorbs. and
draws, and consumes. "More mon

gage-and again it flies back to it's
consuming centre, bringing the calves
and sheep and wheat and cotton with

back, every - months, than went

No more remarkable act has ever
been done by remarkable caravan
OF reprobates than the stealing OF the
name of powerful and honorable
organization to hide their perfdy
under. The Campaign Committee OF
political bankers who defame and de-
stroy the alliance party, have stolen
the title alliance and Industrial
Union, with which to deceive the peo-
pie. The most astounding thing in
this connection is that when the
mighty 81. u" was formed Sprague,
ct al, bitterly opposed the great
body, and dragged Minnesota in the
mire to keep her. out, and succeeded
for reasons well known to us.
Now that the great 81 w. has it's
three million Of members, it's educa-
tional, legislative and Insurance De-
partments, and it's secret ritual, this
angelic gang of purchased wreckers
hobs up serenely and appropriates
the title OF the magnificent ma
tional body to which they have no
membership-nor can have.
1t seems as though the fends, after
wrecking our own alliance, were now
bent upon destroying the greater and
more extensive organization by the
defamation of their character.
Citizens of Minnesota will remem-
Der that there is but one lodge of the
