OHIO FARMERS IN POLITICS.
A Convention Decides on Independent
Action-What They Want.


COLUMBUS, Aug. 13.--Four hundred and
fifty farmers met here in state convention
today. in response to a call by the prom
inent agriculturists, to take action toward
the presentation OF their interest to con-
gress and the legislature. There is strong
effort to keep the movement out of pslii-
ical channels.
Resolutions were adopted setting forth
that the farmers must take a new de-
parture, and henceforth be factor in poll
tics. The question was whether this could
be best done by the formation of a farmers
party, or by msking their influence felt in
cotrol of existing parties. 1t is the sense
of this convention that they should
thoroughly test the latter course. Their
aim should be to give direction to the &C
rion of political parties so as to encourage
and protect the interests of agriculture.
The address concluded:
We are in favor of government control of rail.
way and tel graph lines as to rates and charges;
OF unlimited coinage CT liver and making il
legal tender for all debts, public and private;
the election OF United States senators by popu-
lar vote; the forfeiture of all unearned land
grants; protection of pure food products from
the ruinous competition of adulterated pro-
duets, and the passage of law multiplying the
effect OF the original package decision.
The plan of organization is to be known
as the Farmers Union of the state of
Ohio. s. II. Ellis, of Warren, was elected
president

INDIAN TERRITORY ELECTION.
Squawmen Cast Their Ballots in Separat,
Roxes-No BIaodAhed.

Boxes-No Bloodshed.
ARDMoRE, /. T.. Aug l3.-News has been
received here of the Chickasaw election
from Oakland polling place, Rickens coun-
ty. Everything passed off quietly there.
The polls were opened early in the
morning by a fuil-blood party, and
the first squaw-man who attempted to vote
was refused the privilege. Other squaw-
men made the same attempt and met the
same experience.
Squawmen, about 100 number, were
held captives and were address sed by
George Bennett. Indian agent. who ad-
vised peaceful measures and instructed
them to put up poll
of their own and told them he would
recognize their judges of election so far as
certifying to returns went. The squaw-
men acted upon his advice, and erected
poll at which all the white
men voted. Close by was the Indian
poll, and every one with Chickasaw blood
in him voted there. In the meanwhile
Governor Birds militia aad Indians and
the United states marshal stood guard, and
no disturbance of any kind occurred.
The vote at the squawmen's polls ex-
ceeded the Indian votes. and Sam Paul will
be governor. if the squawmen's votes are
counted. Most of the Indians voted for
Governor Bird, but q few cast ballots for
Paul.
News from Tishomingo is to the effect
that bloodshed was also prevented by the
erection of separate polls. The Indian
vote in Tishomingo county was larger than
the white vote. The plan Of the squaw-
men is 10 contest the election
and carry their returns to the
Indian court. If the Indian
court adjudges the squawmen 70 be aliens,
then they must be citizens and as such
they will appeal to the federal courts. The
latter will then decide whether they are
United States citizens or not, and thus
finally decide the question.

CAMPFIRE IN MECHANICS HALL

General Butler Thinks Citizens Should
Not be Generous to Soldiers.
BosToS. Aug. l3.-There was campfire
in Mechanics hall tonight, attended by all
notable people here. General Alger
spoke. followed by General Sherman.
In response to loud calls for General
Butler. he came forward and spoke
at considerable length. General
Butler began with the statement that,
unlike those who had spoken
only OF gratitude to the soldiers and citizen
entertainers, he was ungrateful. He had
no desire that the citizens should be gen.
erous to the soldiers. although they had
been liberal in the past. but he
wanted the country to pay its
honest debt. 1t having paid its
soldiers in deprecated currency, which
they have accepted. Although rejected
by the bondholders, he urged the men 10
fight together for payment of this debt.
He argued that united action by
the Grand Army would force any legisla-
ton of the kind they wished, because all
the politicians of the North and South
would do anything to gain their votes.
Major Mckinley. of Ohio, was the next
speaker. He differed with General Butler,
who had just said that in a money point
of view the soldiers made bad
bargain when they fought for
SIC a month in deprecated currency. He
said no more honorable obligation was ever
entered into than that in 1861 to
save the flag and preserve the Union
to mankinind the best and freest
government on the face of Gods earth.
Wherat General Butler exclaimed. And
most unjust Amid considerable excite
mens Mayor Mckinley then continued.
Major William Warner and General
Sickles were the last speakers.
