The Alliance on National Issues.

President L. L. Polk, of the farmers
Alliance, is attending National Con
yention at Ocla, Florida. In an inter-
view with an associated Press agent, he
defined the cause of the recent political
resolution in the following sentences
II am morally certain of the reasons
for it. We shall have to look beyond the
Mckinley tariff bill. 1t was not that
We must look beyond the Lodge bills--
1t was not that. We must look farther
than any and all of the political ques>
tions which have been obscuring the
real issue for nearly twenty years. It
was the oppression of the financial sys-
TEN of this country upon the masses 81
the people. They have just found out
to-day, if they never were before, and
they have scratched away all the rubbish
of the negro question, Of the bloody
shirt, of the tariff and Of the federal CON
troll of elections and they have at last
got down to hard pan. It is the dollar
that is keeping the people down to-day.
1t is the money power-the rule OF plu-
tocracy-and the people will have mo
more of it, The slogan henceforth is to
be financial reform. The national bank
ing system must go. The farmer and la
OOIcI uuSU U0 SIFcu d CAdACO W SNa
what money they need upon the securi>
ty of their real property privilege
which is denied them to-day. The ISSUE
from now on is to be a square one be-
tween the manhood of America on ONE
side, and the great American dollar on
the other. And can tell you right now
that unless the leaders of the great pos
litical battles come to recognize the real
issue and make it, there are going to be
terrible times in this country. The peo-
pie will not suffer the real issue to be
obscured any longer. The people. Of
this country are going to rule it-sec-
tionalism cannot pull them apart any
longer. Why, if my own father were
candidate for Office to-day, and upon tho
stump he should abuse Yankees l should
refuse to vote for him if it was the last
act of my life. I'm sick Of that rot and
rubbish. heartily sick and tired of it,
The only men who can secure popular
support are those who understand the
great economic questions of the day and
who are in full sympathy with the peo-
pie in the battle for their rights against
the oppression of the money kings"

Centreville Items.

Especial Correspondence of the VIRGINIAN.1
Church is still going on with good at
tendance, and much interest is mani
tested. We hope to see it continue and
that much good may be done. Rev. Mr..
Oney is doing good work at Salem
new Lutheran church at this time, and is
fine orator and an impressive speaker.
May the good work go on.
Hon. H. ST. Geo. Tucker was in our
vicinity last week on a hunt, and was
having fine time in company with
VIM. Gay, Esq.
The Alliance at Slate Hill is growing,
and we would urge better attendance at
every meeting, most especially on Sat
urday before Court-day which is our
regular meeting day.
Our school on the Glade is doing fine,
and we have very good teacher, Miss
Cora B. Carson.
Centreville is looking up, and we have
two good stores that make it lively and
prices lower. Success. we say, to Mr.
Jacob A. Michael and Messrs. Whitmer
and Long.
Mrs. Todd, wife of Capt. James Todd,
Of Mt. Scion, was buried at Messy Creek
on last Thursday, Rev. r. M. Wheeler
officiating.
Mr.. J. G. Root, our new road surveyor,
has about completed his roads, and they
are in fine order now. He is new man
and hope will make an acceptable road
overseer. +. b. w.

1t must be apparent now to President
Harrison and Postmaster-General Wan
amaker that their slavish subserviency
to the triune bosses-Quay, Clarkson and
Mahone-was huge mistake-from a
political standpoint, an objectionable
crime. The VIRGINIAN, pretending to
nothing more than country newspaper,
nevertheless warned the administration
of the fatal blunder it was committing,
and gave emphasis to it's conviction by
opposing the ablest of the three, in his
purpose to enslave Virginia and rule
this historic old State with rod of iron.
This called forth the hostility of Harri-
son and the implacable hatred of the
INSCRIPTIONS Clarkson and the pious
submission of Wanamaker thereto
They were in full sympathy with Clark
son and Malone, and deserve all the
censure, and more, that is now heaped
upon Quay and Malone after the verdict
of the people against them has been rem
dered 1t is possible Mr. Harrison sees
now that he was used by the triumvi-
their own purposes, and realizes that the
people are not to be fooled with when
fully aroused to such conditions. 1t was
the purpose of the triumvirate to turn
the very favors he had given them
against him when the crucial test should
come; but the people have anticipated
that, and not only spewed out the tri-
umvirate, but sat heavily down upon
Harrison and Wanamaker

A New Iron ana Land Company.

The Ironton Mining and Improvement
Company has been organized, with
Judge George Swan, of Botetourt, as
President, and Mr.. James E. Lloyd, of
this city as general manager. The prop
erty of the company is near Clifton
Forge, and consists of 1900 acres of min
eral and farming lands, especially rich in
iron ores. The land cost $4,000 and
will be stocked at $250.000. The surplus
will be used in building a branch rail
road, a hotel and other improvements.
The water power is said to be very valu-
able. Every two shares of stock carry
50-foot lot with them, and the assign
ment of lots will take place in the early
spring. Among the directors are Messrs.
W. H. Lloyd and Thos. A. O'Brien. two

Post Office Department.

The Postmaster-G General Wanamaker,
in his annual report for the past fiscal
year, made public on the 28th, claims
that in the administrative methods of
the department some changes for the
better have been made. Over $1,000
have been saved on the contract for post@
al cards. and $40O, 900 on the contract for
stamped envelopes, and $500, 900 on con-
tract for carrying the mails, while mail
routes have been extended over almost
1900, 600 miles of railway, steamboat and
stage lines. Negotiations with the Ger~
man authorities, looking to the estab-
lishment of sea post>ofices, have been
successful. Figures given illustrated
how much the business of the departs
ment has grown.
The gross revenue is nearly $4,000, 900
larger than ever before; nearly 500 new
offices more than in any one year before
were established; the star~route mileage
has increased over 100000 miles, and
the railroad mileage over 10,0O0,000. In
one form or another, says the Postmast>
er>General, the public demands cheaper
Geographic service, and the POstoffice
Department can supply it at less cost
than any corporation unless the latter
has rent, light and fuel free, and carriers
and clerks without pay. This statement
is supported by an extended argument
on the same lines as the argument made
by the Postmaster-General before the
committees OF Congress. The Postmast>
er>General recommends the establish~
ment of postal savings banks in States
having no laws regarding savings banks,
and in other States upon petition of a
considerable number Of residents of any
locality.
Recent anti>lottery legislation is brief

''Kreutzer Sonata" from the mails be-
cause indecent by the law officers of the
department is justified as the simple du>

The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1890-12-04

The leading Republican papers of the
North have all at once discovered that
the Republican party will not tolerate
bossism, and are calling for the resigna-
ton of Quay from the Craftsmanship of
the National Republican Committee.
This is like locking the door after the
horse has been stolen. These same pa
pers dissented from the VIRGINIAN in it's
efforts to kill bossism in the Republican
party in Virginia, when it opposed Ma
hone for Governor. They gave him
their support, and tried to read the VIR-
GINIAN out of the Republican party.
They are now crying aloud against
bossism, and assigning the rebuke of
the recent election, in great measure, to
the effect of bossis1n. The overthrow of
the Virginia boss was simply the fore

sylvania boss and the boss of the ma
tional Republican Committee. The ad
ministration cannot escape from full
both Malone and Quay. 1t gave Clark
son unusual power in the most import

made the support of bossism, as repre-

pulous bosses, as test of Republican
fealty and loyalty to the administration
1t refused to recognize any one who had
opposed the corrupt methods and con-
demned the corrupt motives of these
men. And now it is at liberty to con-
template the result
