Senator StanRords companies for seventy
five years, at greatly reduced rates Of
interest, and will doubtless become law
without serious opposition, as the com
blned influence Of all other roads will be
byought 70 bear upon this one fret. OF
course this will be precedent for all
others. The tariff humbug ls still doing
duty to set the people fighting each other,
in order TO divert their minds from the
real object to be attained. See the action
OF both houses on the tariff II you doubt
II. I seriously fear the slngle-tax hum
bug will be made TO do duty for the same
purpose, since they have been connected.
And now, too, they have learned and are
practlcing another fad, Taking advan-
tage Of the labor agitation, they are In
Producing and seeming TO pass labor
leglslation-to what effect we well know,
for what purpose is just becoming APP
parent. Now want 10 assure our re-
publican friends that they need not
worry. Benjamin Harrison will stay at
the white house 80 long as the railroad
monopoly has any use for him. He will
be renominated reelected and this vast
trust Of monopolIes fastened upon the
people indefinitely, unless Providence
interReres before another election comes
around and the ranks Of united labor
close up, don an armOr-patriotism-and
crowd In solid phalAnx to the front, as
did the knights Of old, and proclaim TO
these monopOlles: "Thus far, and no

Comwell did to the British parliament In
1868:
at is high time for me to put an end
10 your sitting in this place, which ye

IL is with much satisfaction thAtwe
call the attention Of the alliance in
general and that body Of Reno county
IN particular 10 an arrangement which
has been entered into between the
Reno county f. A. and /. u. and ]. ID.
Wiener, manager OF above establish
ment, whereby he will furnish the
different lines Of goods above enumer-
ated TO all members and their families
at per cent profit agreed upon by
contract. This agreement was en-
tered into temporarily by Bro. s. A.
Willoughby, contracting agent for
Reno county during the month OF
January and was unanimously ap-
proved OF, ratified and accepted at
the regular quarterly county meeting
held in the Grand hall, Hutchinson,
April 8 and 10, thus showing how en-
tirely satisfactory and beneficial this
arrangement had proven to all the
members Of the organization at large.
The business operated by Mr.. Weiner
is one among the principal II not the
largest in the state. In receiving
recognition from such a source the
L. A. and I. u. are assured of in
valuable benefits in the purchase Of
such commodities as are handled by
this establishment.
Approaching the friendly feeling
Of this gentleman towards our or
ganization, we not alone hope, but
earnestly advise every alliance mem
Der within the reach Of that territory
to give this undertaking their united
and energetic support.
Authority which is beyond refute
has shown conclusively chat the diff
erence in the cost of all merchandise
such az is handled by Mr.. Wiener as
compared with the prices paid by the
farmers heretofore through the orr
dinary channels Of trade, are fully
from 15 to 30 per cent in favor Of tho
alliance members We have no doubt
that, AZ in most cases Of like nature,
when men Of good, common sense,
men who appreciate the present con-
dition Of the farmer and laborer and
come forward TO corporate with them,
become the prey and object OF attack
OF outside influence brought on by
determination to undermine and
break them up. In order to build
up protection against such attacks
and soldify arrangements Of such a
beneficiary nature il is absolutely
necessary for every man and woman,
every son and daughter having the
interest OF the alliance movement at
heart, not TO be led from the pursuance
OF duty which the first principles OF
self protection dictates, that is to
stand up for and by those who join
hands with them. Schemes Of every
nature are brought into play, tending
10 break up men who have the moral
courage to acknowledge tho needs OF
the times and who by initiating che
modern course ofCo-operative trading,
assist the farmers and laborers in the
retrenchment OF their burden OF ex-
pense. Support such men and such
establishments as you have agreed.
Encourage every endeavor OF these
men, made to conform with your just
demands and needs, and suppress and
reject all attempts and Vaccinations
OF outside influence to break up an
institution 80 concurrent with our
principles. Mr.. Wiener will from

The soil in one part of Australia is said

Kentuckian farmer asserts that if tenpenny
nails were planted in it they would grow up
into crowbars.
In Nova Scotia, however, the land is very
poor. So unproductive is the soil on the
hills that you couldn't even raise an echo on
them. In Nova Scotia, too. the fog is very
thick. It is sometimes 80 dense that you

To modest and dignified men who dislike
to appear in gymnasium garb, or who have
not the time for systematic course Of ex-
ercise, the striking bag is gradually being
recognized as physical boon, says the New
York Press. With striking bag and lit
tie instruction as to its use, man can get
in his own back room all the advantages of
gymnasium, and whether the weather CON-
ditions are favorable or not he can get, with
the walking he takes between his home and
place of business, all the exercise he needs.
The bags now in use cost IS to s.. They
are made of strong grain leather, and filled
with oats, sawdust or hair. One of the lat
est kinds has inside the grain lea Their bag q
smaller bag of Para rubber. filled with COM
pressed air. The bag complete is about the
size of a football. It is suspended at a
striking height by a round rubber band and
provements wrought by striking the bag are
many.
The eye is trained as to Judgment in esti-
mating distances and rapidity of movement
of the object against which force is directed;
unconsciously the man of slow motion is in
duced to quicken his movements, and event.
ually to become nimble and smart on his
feet; the muscles of the neck are brought
into active play. The muscles of the arms,
wrists, shoulders, back, chest. loins and alb
domen are developed. and the several parts
mentioned strengthened. The calves of
the legs are hardened. and the striker is
taught how to deal blow and how to re-
cover quickly and easily after the blow is
delivered. In addition to these advantages
the work necessarily becomes so lively that
the pores of the body are opened, and the
striker sweats freely.
A blow falling on the side of the bag of
ten gives it rotary motion, which renders
striking the object again very difficult. To
get the benefits from the exercise the ball
should be suspended SO as to hang about
the height of the nose, and should be struck
squarely in the center with right and left
hands alternately. and kept in motion un-
til the striker begins to puff and feel tired.
The beginner will experience this in very
short time. Fifteen to thirty seconds rest
may then be had, after which the striking
may be resumed. Some people wear thin
kid gloves in this exertion to protect the
hands from injury, although there is little
danger of any serious bruise or scratch.

to boycott unfairly made goods and all
