Wyoming, which has been in the
habit of giving Republican majority
of 5000, held its first State election
last week and went Republican by
1.200. The Democrats would have
carried the State but for defections
from their ranks in the Mormon vote,
en account Of local issues. The Dem
ocratic candidate for Congress was
Geo. T. Beck, son Of of the late
Senator Beck. The Legislature o.
the new state will be Republican and
two more Republican Senators vii
be elected.

The popinjays and demagogues are

The popinjays and demagogues are
still getting in their work at Frank
fort. One of them last week who be-
longs to both of these classes advocat'
ed motion to strike out the slavery
clause of the present constitution
which has been dead letter for near
ly thirty year. 1t evidently did not
occur to this record maker that the
Convention has been called to make
new Constitution and not to discuss
the faults of the old one that are pal
pable to all men and defended y No
body. If the Convention will first
muzzle few of its cranks it can make
more headway constructing a consti-
tuition.

Thinking men in tho Farmers Al
lance are beginning to abandon the
Sub Treasury and government rail
read schemes as they understand
them better. These two propositions
are about the only ones in the Wheel
ers' platform that Democrat could
not adopt, and this being true the
Wheelcrs are rapidly realizing that
there is chance for them to get
what they want without forming a
third party. 1t has also occurred to
them that it is easier for them to
make themselves felt in the counciis
of the Democratic party than it is to
secure control of the whole country.

Those who supposed that the Con,
Con. would complete its work in thirty
or sixty days are doomed to disap-
pointment. Ono week has been con-
sumed and the rules have not even
been adopted. Plans and specihca-
tions have already been submitted for
2l committees and there is no telling
how many will be appointed before
they get through. 1t is likely that a
day or two will be set apart this week
for the work of forming committees
and it is not probable that the conven'
ton will get down to work before next
week.

ma, who was elected President Of the Ma
tlonul Farmers Alliance and Industrial
Union NJ the recent meeting at St Louis,
was rendered a grand reception on his re-
turn home. The following ia his speech
on that occasion, and we cannot refrain
from giving 10 a place TO the exclusion OF
some otherimportant matter
Mr.. Josephus Daniels was Toast-Mas-
ter, and opened the banquet with an ad-
dress Of welcome 10 Col. L. L. Polk, con-
cluding with toast 10 "0ur Hohored
Guest"
He called on Col, II L. Polk, the guest
Of the evening" to respond to to the toast
"The new Revolution"
Col. Polk said:
Mr.. CHAmMAN.-lIistor is ever re-
peatlng itself. The march Of human
progress Is strewn with the wrecks Of EN-
pires, Kingdoms, systems, thrones and
governments. Many Of them went down
In violence and blood. But the declara-
tion In the sentiment TO which am
called 10 respond-"The new Revolution"
Is but the echo Of the mighty fat which
has been put forth by 100000 liberty
loving law-ablding American freeman.
The approach Of this New Revolution has
not been heralded by the flare Of fam
beau, the beat Of drum or the thunder Of
cannon. The thousands and hundreds of
thousands Of patriots who are enllstlng In
It's ranks are marshaling under no ensign
Of strife, Of hate, of blood or Of carnage,
but they align themselves under a ban
ner on whose snow-white folds are i'm
printed, In characters Of heavenly hue,
the God-given motto; "On earth peace,
good will to men," and the battle-cry OF
this mighty host, from one end Of the
land to the other, Is: Equal rights TO all
and special privileges to nOne,"
In the rapid development Of our Amer
lean civilization, demoNllzlng forces
have been evolved which seriously
threaten to paralyze our industries, to i'm
poverish our wealth-producers, to sub
vert our free institutions and TO destroy
our republican form Of government To
meet these forces aud neutraliZe or sub
due them, Is an undertaking as fOrmida-
BILE, as patriotic and as heroic, as its ac-
compllshment shall be grand and glorl-
Gus. With that qulescent submission
characteristic of the American farmer In
times Of peace, he pursued the even ten
or Of his way, sowing for the harvest and
hoping for the reward Of his labor.
How anxiously, but how In vain, did he
look for It's coming Banking and other
moneyed interests, manufacturing In all
It's departments; railroads, schemes Of
speculation, villages, towns and cities, all
prosperlng and hourishing; yet, despite
his earnest, honest, manly and untiring
efforts, he Is being gradually drawn into
the chilling shades Of helpless and hope
less poverty.
Most naturally he began to investigate
the situation. And here are few Of the
alarming and appalling facts that CON
front him.
/, That from 1870 to 1880 while farms
of 3 to 20 acres decreased IA to 88 per
cent, those Of 1000 acres or more In
creased no per cent? And in this con-
nection he finds another no less alarm
ingly significant fact--that aliens and
