The Alliance Can't Dictate the
Policy OF the Next House.
The Farmers Will. However. Have an
Important Influence in the Pol

As the Alliance Movement Spreads to the
North and East the Most Raiicll Fea-
lures Are Toned Down.
What Cultivate SAYS.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Nov. l9.-Representa-
tive Cultivate of Ohio, who has his eye
on the speakers chair, said TO your cor
respondent Tonight that the Farmers
Alliance would not be able to dictate the
policy of the next house because OF the
Democrats large majority. he said the
Alliance movement would have au i'm
portant influence on ths politics of the
future; that the Republican party would
be the chief sufferer by the movement.
The great principles of reduction ana
equalizat ton of taxation and OF antagOn-
ism to exclusive and class privileges upon
which the Alliance based its organiza-
ton, were Democratic principles. But
in the sections where the Farmers AL
lance had formerly been Republican,
having been raised In that faith, they
brought with them from the Republican
party theories of fraternalism which the
Democratic party was not in sympathy
with. The Alliance platform. he said,
could be very largely subscribed TO by
ANY DEMOCRAT IN OHIO.
They had not pressed the sub-treesury
scheme. aud out of a platform o. eight
Teen UeclhTatlOus, lueTe were tWeiSo ~
which any Democrat could subscribe, and
as to the remainder, this trouble was not
with the object aimed to be reached, but
with the method OF reaching it. He ex-
pressed the opinion that the Alliance
would not press the cub treasury scheme,
but would be satisfied if they could secure
a reduction and equalization of taxation,
and an enlargement of she circulating,
medium to meet the demands of tFatfs'
and business. He thought It not un-
likely that the conditions might be such,
the value of silver being increased, that
the Democrats could adopt II
FREE COINAGE OF SILVER
during the Fifty-second congress. They
could, he thought, make q reduction
and equalization of the tariff by taking
up one item at time and passing it
through the house, and then through
the senate, with the assistance OF certain
Republicans.
The Farmers Alliance, he said is ad-
vancing from the West to the North and
East, and some of the least digested and
least well-considered features of the
movement are being toned down, all not
agreeing TO the principles which some
would advance. l have been watching
the movement with considerable interest.
cannot discover that there has been any
com bination formed between the Farm
ers' Alliance and labor parties in the
cities, though such union has been an
noguced. If the wage workers of the
cities should join with the Alliance I be-
Iieve the Alliance could eject the next
president of the United States.

be said as 10 the diligence of the United
States census authorities in obtaining the
correct number of the living Inhabitants
In the South there is certainly no DOUBT
that they are very DESTROYS of obtaining
the names OF all the dead ones. Mr..
Games II RHiney, who was appointed
euumerator for distritc l3S III Waco, has
been altiug some time for the approval
of his report, of which nc had heard of
no com 0laDt, but instead Of receiving
an approval he has received letter
from the department stating that the
death rate was too low, and that his paw
would be withheld until II WAS corrected.
Mr.. Rainey is given credit for 1916 in
haJitauts.

when, says the census authorities, Il
should nave been eighteen. Mr..
Rainev's bill is about ST. for seventeen
days work and now he Is engaged try
ing to mud more dead people i'll order TO
SECURE what is due him. He has ram
sacked all the records and secured the
services of the city health physician,
DR.. W. l.. Barker, TO assist him in his
dismal search for the dead, but they
cannot be found. District I3s is il the
northeast portion of the city and is q

above the tbirk.y settled part of the

~ 7-s per cent admitted free of duty, leaving
only II Is per cent with which to trade for recproc
ity. The details of these figures were as follows:
