TIE American Building and Loan Association of Minneapolis. Minn., capitalized at $10.000, 900 and doing a business of nearly $l,000, ,000, has reached the end of it's tether. Public Examiner Kinyon decides that it must wind up its affairs and quit business. There is no telling how much its stock holders scattered all over the United States will lose. An examination of the business of the association shows that the tota! sum paid up by shareholders up to Dec. 2, 1889, was $1 ,24S,719,2l less $35.- 220,92, premiums paid, and 7,060,. 3l, installments withdrawn, leaving $1, ,206, ,437,9S. The assets gre $l,- 3l,7l9,70, showing an excess of re. ceipts over assets of STA, ,7ls.28. The association being organized for the purpose of making profit for share holders, after having been in busl- ness two years or more, shows de fciency of $74,7IS.28 in accounting for moneys recei, ed from it's share holders, notwithstanding the share holders have paid to it's agents, in addition to the above. large sun (estimated at s266, ,00o) in admission fees, for expenses of the agents in obtaining the subscriptions of stock holders to the stock. An additional reason, says MT. Klnyon, that makes 1t appear that said association should be forced to discontinue business Is the fact that Aug. 2, 1889, and Aug. 16, 1889, said association invested large sum, eggregating s200,000, in the stocK of the German American Fire Insurance company of St. Paul, in direct violation of section 4 of said chapter 236; and Tn further violation of said law the said associ ation has taken second mortgage on real estate for security of moneys loaned.

From Appleton.

COrIc8pOuueuCc O1 the OemOcr6ts
 Appleton has been on a boom for the past week, that is there has been plenty of money coming in, but the sad part of the story IS that Mir. Young carried most of it away.
 It is with sadness that the people of Appleton and Pope county will receive the intelligence that A. l.. Rankin and family will soon leave for Eastland Co. Texas, where they expect to reside Tn the future. MT. Rankin is one of our oldest and most beloved citizens, so their we'll wish CTS will be many.
 I promised short time ago to try and satisfy those wishing to know something of the mountainous coun- try north of our little town.
 One mile away can be seen two little mountains, known as the Lick and John mountains. They are di- yided by the low land or fertile val ley through which Poe creek makes it's way, along which there are good farms. Also the land on top of these little mountains produce we'll, being of dark, sandy nature; hence, loose loamy, and easily cultivated.
 On these little mountains are large, level tracts of fertile land, some of which are yet vacant. Then on the brakes are as fine timber as Arkansas affords.
 Farther north Is to be found the Oak mountains. The first berch is situated about 3 miles from this place and contains four or five hun dred acres of good land, very level and well adapted to corn, wheat and oats-and especially does fruit of all kinds thrive there.
 Persons wishing to own vineyard raise grapes, etc., and make wines, can fruits, etc, would do we'll to go there.
 There are good mountain roads across there. Farther out on top of the mountains are extensive tracts of fine lands and farms, and the growth resembles that growing on large water courses, viz: walnut, ash, white hickory and paupaw, Persons desiring good health and the posses sion of good farms, plenty of stock, fine vineyards, in short, first-rate living,:: could not, to my mind, do better than to locate on this range of mountains.

 Our literary society is progress ing finely. Not only are the young people interested, but quite a num- Der of the older ones are taking an active part in the exercises. Rev. Wm. Sosbee delivered quite an interesting lecture in our town on last Friday night in behalf of the Farmers Alliance which we hope will result in much good.
 Among our visitors last week was Dr. J. H. Lindsey, late of Baxter county. From him we learn that Russellville is to be his home in the future. He was practicing phy. scisn here during the years 1884 and 1885, and we cheerfully recommend him to the people of Russellville and vicinity as safe and reliable phy- sician and surgeon.
 Prof. Meade and family were also visitors to their relatives-B. Zach. ary and c. B. Love families.
 According to an appointment quite a number Of citizens met on the 10th inst., IF an old vacant house near London for the purpose of being or ganized into the Farmers Alliance. Preceding the organization, the con stitution and bylaws were called for, upon which the organizer arose and began reading from the Wheel" constitution, telling those present that the term "Alliance" was proper to use instead of "Wheel." Several being surprised thereat took leave of absence. We learn however that they did organize with about ten members. We still say that ga hint to the wise is sufficient"

THERE is n good deal more of truth than humor in Congressman Houck's side remark to Mir. Culberson of Texas the other day. He said:
 i've republicans have the ideal speaker. He's the best speaker who eyer presided over this house. He won't recognize democrat to make a motion to adjourn; he won't recog- nize the demand of democrat for tellers, and"--leaning over confiden- tislly-"he is considering propo. sition to require the endorsement Of two republicans for democrat to introduce 8 bill. I'll indorse you, Culberson, if you can get anyone for 6 second"

Ex SPEAKER CARLISLE has issue

Ex SPEAKER CARLISLE has issued an address to the country in which he states clearly and forclbly the democratic position in the present contest in the house of representa- tives. Alter alluding to the history of the struggle, the failure of the re- publicans to provide rules for the government of the house, the arbi- trary rulings of the speaker and his refusal to permit even ordinary mo- tlons, Mr. Carlisle concludes:
 "We are not contending for the right of the minority to govern, as the supporters of the speaker have endeayored to make the country be- lieye. On the contrary, we are de- nying the right of minority to eject members from their seats, or to pass laws for the government of the peo pie. Under the constitution major ity of the members of the house con stitute quroum to do business, and we are simply insisting that less than majority shall not do business. We are contending that the majority shall take the responsibility which properly belongs to them, and shall come in the house of representatives and vote if they desire to control it's proceedings. And we are protesting against their right to carry their measures by counting us when we do not vote.
 The claim of the majority that they have right to govern the house without attending it's sessions and taking part in the conduct of it's busi mess is too preposterous to require refutation. It must be evident to any one who understands the posi- Jtion taken by the democratic mlnori- ty in the house, that it cannot pos sibly result in any injury to the country, or in any injustice to the majority. Its only effect will be to compel the republican majority elect ed by the people, to assume the re- sponsibllity imposed upon them.
 On the other hand no one can fore see the evils that may result from the inauguration of this practice of counting votes not cast in order to make quroum. Under it a minori- ty of the members elected to the house and senate may pass the most tyrannical laws for the oppression of the people, and the most corrupt law for the spoliation of the pubic treas urY. Whether so intended or not it's direct tendency is to break down the barriers heretofore existing for the protection of the citizens against the encroachments of power and the spoliatlon of the treasury by destroy ing the limitation which the consti- tuition has wisely imposed upon the legislative department. Constitu- tions are made to restrain majorities and protect minorIties. A majority ruling without limitations or res traint upon It's power is Eure de- spotism, and IS inconsistent with our system of government"
