L, Loucks, Esq president Of
the Farmers National Alli-
ance, Of which the following
is acopy:
The eforactiOn-prOmpt,
united, decisive actionon the
part OF the farmers of the
county, is absolutely
and ilnperatiyely demanded.
No argument could empha-
size this truth SO deeply and.
indelibly as it has been. i'm
by the alarming and.
constantly augmenting de-
preston Of our great agricul-
tural interests. 1t is written
on the lintels Of almost every
farmers home in this broad
land. Impelled by the force
Of it's demand, farmers Of To-
calities. states and sections
have combined in various
forms Of organization. Diff
fering only in name and form,
these various organizations
are actuated by one common
purpose, and are guided by
one common principle the
elevation and betterment OF
the agricultural interests Of
the country. Butconfronting
them all is the stern truth
that the greatest evil under
which they Justly compain,
are national in their charac-
ter, and that they cannot be
corrected BY local, State or
sectional remedies. National
legislation which discrimi-
nates against or oppresses
agriculture in New York, In
diana or Kansan, affects e
qually thatinterest in Virgin
ia, Georgia orTexas. Hence,
to meet the demands OF the
situation the farmers Of the
United States must form one
grand, compact national or
ganization. They must make
common cause against q
common danger. "

Found Dead.

The White Pine News Of the 18th
instant gives the particulars of the
finding of the body of Mike Mccall on
the road between Cherry Creek and
Ely, in Steptoe Valley, on Thursday,
the 18th instant. A Coroner's in
quest was held, and the evidence won't
to show that deceased left Bassett's
ranch on the morning Of the 18th,
with his own team bound for Ely.
He had one double and one single
barrel shot gun, the former loaded.
The Coroner's jury rendered a verdict
finding "that the deceased was named
Michael Mccall; was native of Ire
land, aged about Is years; that he
came to his death on the 18th day or
March, 1890, in this county, from the
effects of gun shot wound in the left
leg, which we believe to have been
accidental"
The News says: "The remains
were buried yesterday afternoon,
most OF our people attending the
funeral. Nike Mccall was genial,
kind-hearted old gentleman, esteemed
by all who knew him. 1t is said Mrs.
Hull, Of Elko, is his daughter and he
has brother in California"

A North Pole Theory.

EDITOR INDEPENDENTLY me
to say with regard to the question of
a mans reaching the North Pole by
going northwest continually, that
while he would never reach it mathe-
matically speakingyet he'would prac-
tically. He would continually make
a spiral course round it by which he
would soon get 80 close to it that he
could step to it. This is not only
true in tho case given but is also true
for an infinite number of bearings be-
tween north and west or north and
east, all of which is susceptible of
easy mathematical proof.

Lawyer-Br riggs.


MARRIED: At the residence of the
brides mother in this city, on Tues.
day evening, October Z, 1890, Mr.
George w. Lawyer, of Garnett, and
Miss Cora Briggs, of lola, Rev. w. H.
Hyatt officiating.
In this case it is the expected that
has happened; and it is a great pleas
ure to be able to add that the ex.
pected is also deemed by all who
know the bride and groom, the fit
and beautiful.
George Lawyer was born at the old
homestead west of the river, unless
our memory is at fault. At any rate
he has lived here practically all his
life. Everybody knows him,-and
knows no evil of him. Our own &C
quaintance with him dates away back
in the seventies. and in all these
years we cannot recall an unkind
word from anybody concerning him.
He was bright, quick-witted, OPEN
hearted boy. He has become high
minded, capable and energetic man.
He has been successful in business, as
all such men must be, and he has
troops of friends. As George Lawyer
is one of "our boys" SO Cora Briggs
is one of "our girls" All her life a
resident of lola, she is known by all
our people, and by all esteemed and
admired. best by those who know
her best. The marriage of two such
people, the natural crown and con-
summation of an attachment founded
on mutual worth aud dating almost
from childhood, can call for nothing
but the most cordial congratulations
and the sincerest good wishes.
The wedding ceremony was per-
formed at eight o'clock, in the pres
ence of the immediate relatives of
both parties and of few of the most
intimate girl friends of the bride.
After the formal congratulations had
been rendered, sumptuous banquet
was served and the remainder of the
evening spent in a social way. Nu-
merous and valuable presents, en-
phasized the esteem and good wishes
of many friends.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lawyer went on
Wednesday to Garnett, where Mr..
Lawyer has been engaged in business
for the past two years, and where
they will begin housekeeping at once
in the pleasant home which he has
prepared. May all the good things
which this life can give be their
portion.
