election Of warehouse managers, but
the constitution says Federal officers
must be appointed and not elected, ana
you know whom the Republicans Will
appoint. It says there shall be an
election to decide where the warehouses
shall be built. It will be a Federal
election, not State election. The ne
groes would vote, and whites would
divide. Would not that bea nice state
of affairs? Then there would be lots OF
stealing and embezZling; cotton would
disappear, and there would be litigation
Some of you might take a little too
much whiskey and get into fights; you
would be on Federal ground. All would
have to be tried in the United States
court. You could not bring them into
YOUR own courts. There IS no more
chance for that bill to pass than there
is to pass bill to build tower to the
moon.
There were only two congressman
who were avowed supporters of the
sub-treasury bill. They had their
papers annulIed, but the Alliance
thought they were too enthusiastic, and
did not nominate them for another
term.
The most stupid thing to ME in the
whole bill is that so per cent. advanced
on products in the early part OF the
wear and at the latter end of the year
the money is burned. What YOU need
is more money, all the time to keep
prices up and keep them steady.
The bill was gotten up by a committee
of three-a dreamer, speculator and a
scurvy politician-who wanted to pro-
vide popular scheme for broken down
noliticians. Senator Vance introduced
it into the Senate by request. He was
silent about it for four months, and al
the end of which time he denounced It,
In the meantime though the Alliance
papers and tramp orators cried it aloud
that Senator Vance endorsed it, and
what Senator Vance endorses is right.
Mr.. Hemphill has whipped it out in
his district. In Georgia all the strong
politicians were sent back in spite OF It
Two of them did not seek another
term. Maj. Barnes was not defeated on
account of it, but on account OF the
prejudice of the country against the

Stand by the Alliance and vote 1ol
Alliancemen and measures, but not as

It is time should close, though |

If the West is being robbed by the
East they will come to US. At the
November elections we will see wheth'
er the West is inclined to unite with
US. Don't be in too great hurry. we
were in hurry in go, but we have
been repenting ever since. Wait ano
see if the West will come to US.
Put an income tax on the wealth OF
the East. There are four reasons why
T have no use for the sub-treasury bill
it is crude, impracticable, Repubh'
can, unconstitutional measure.
Livingstone, Polk, McCune and two
or three Others were put upon the
legislative committee at the st. Louis
meeting to suggest the outline OF the
measure, but McCune and Waddlli
drafted it. The fys cents you SEND up
there will 60. They must pretend to
be doing something to earn those big
salaries they are getting.
The great, just God is temperins the
wind to the shorn lamb. The produc-
ton of cotton is not keeping pace with
it's manufacture. The South raised a
fine provision crop last year and a fe"
more will bring the West to its knees.
It will have to burn corn for fuel again
and it will be a drug on the market
bringing no price. Then the West Will
come to the South and seek an alliance
to raise the moneyed oppression OF the
East. -, .
Mr.. Tillman closed with strong
appeal never to submit to negro doHl-
