The Alliance.

Some members Of the Alliance Who

rule, however, in this: Making due
allowance for the falling away of the
faint hearted and disappointed of
every class, 1t has made more progress
and accomplished more real good for
the masses during the comparatively
short period of its existence, than any
economic reform movement that ever
existed. That is saying great deal,
but not tno much. and the fact should
serve as fresh inspiration to ALI wlru

The Alliance is really in the mhrn-
ing of its career and usefulness. 1t
has now reached point where its very
strength and unity, as we'll as ITS mo-

If the entire country and the fear of
all politicians and political parties.
Let it continue to persevere in the
COURSE marked out-fet its motto con

party machines for their own selfish
ends-and it will not only continue to

an enduring benefactor to the farmers

The promise of the Savior OF man

Ven have doubtless observed that
the r-nsus of Mississippi for 1890 hats
just Ircn officially promulgated by the
department at Washington. IN jus
tice to the enumerators 6f this, the
fourth district, of which, by appoint
ment of the President, acted as SUI
peIvisor, and also to- show the pro-
gress made by the counties composing
the district, I wish to say word.
Itake no pleasure in drawing in nvid-
ious comparisons, hut rather take
pride m the prosperity and progress
of each and every portion n the
State, and only give yon the facts as
developed by tire recent official statis-
ties.
1t appears that the population ot
slse State is 1,2s4,SS7, an increase for
the decade of 153. .29O. Now tire in
crease for the 26 counties of this, the
4th Supervisors district is 70,S9S,
while the increase of the 10 counties,
comprising the other three districts,
is but $500. In othcr words. this
district shows an increase of % per
cent. over 1880, while the balance of
the State gives but 13 per cent. in
crease. This statement makes very
creditable showing forthe piney woods
region. which the wealthy inhabitants
of the Delta and the pioneers, in
former days, sometimes spoke of
derisively as the poor mans home,
adapted only to .'tar- heels" and the
indigenous gopher.
This district is composed, almost
entirely, of the beautiful piney woods
region of Mississippi. 1t takes in one
tier of counties lying north of the
Eicks6urg & Meridian railroad, all
east of the !. c. K. r., including Mad
ison, but leaving out Kinds, and
these extend on Southward to the Sea
Coast. Every one of these counties
shows a large increase in population
md wealth. The increase in Lauder
lale is S,319; Lincoln, 1866, and
Jones has more than doubled her pop
rfation; while Harrison, on the Sea
;oast, shows 4,5O0 Increase. The lit
.e county of Greene, the lowest on
he list, with its sparsely settled ter
itOry, where the pine trees so domi
iate the forest, that the traveller can
carccly find riding whip, and
vhere no railroad has ever disturbed |
he serhai solitude, presents an in
rease of 100.
1t has been charged by some of the
Sew Orleans newspapers that the cen
'us Of Mississippi is incorrect. They
'ay it does not show sufficient increase
If population, and that the diminu-
ion has been purposely made, to a
fiew Of decreasing our representa-
ives in the lower house of Congress
md in the Electoral College, under
lie new apporti0nment bin to- be
enacted at the coming session.
While | do not believe this is true as
20 any part of the State, assert that
it is absolutely untrue as 20 the 4th
district, as the foregoing facts and
Iignres clearly demonstrate.

cotton in a sin gle crop, and will re-

"TRE END OF POLYGAmY."


Nobody has ever thought of alleging any
special love for the Mormons to the Wash
ington Post. OF late years, at least, that
paper has been so bitter in its hatred of the
Saints that it has frequently done them an
injustice. We have known that it was pre-
JUDGED, and have sometimes thought it was
willful. orinstance, when the scandalous
and lying report Of the Utah commission
was published last month the Post approved
the document and urged that the Infamous
recommendations of the malicious officials
be adopted. 1t was peculiarly harsh and
unreasonable article. Since then, how
ever, the editor Of the Post seems to have
recovered his equilibrium and to have be-
come capable Of understanding that there is
in this world such thing as fairness. In
his paper Of the 9th instant, after the pub
LEGATION of President WooDRUFF's mani
festo and before the general conference had
taken action on it, the editor discussed the
matter in clear, forcible and logical man.
ner, not at all in keeping with some of his
previous efforts. He refers to what he said
on the report and recommendations of the
commission, and continues:
Since the publication Of the commissions re
port the venerable president of the Mormon
church has issued manifesto, in which he de-
MES the statements OF that report in regard to
polygamous marriages in the territory, and
states that, so far as he knows, no plural mar
rage has been celebrated there within the past
year. He goes on to say: I'VE are not teaching
polygamy, nor permitting any person to enter
into its practice" and he adds that he and his
associates now teach nothing which can rea-
sonably be construed to inculcate or encourage
polygamy, and when any elder of the church
has used language which appeared to- convey
such teachings he has been promptly reproved. -
1t is argued that the new policy thus avowed
does not imply "a change of heart or any al
teration in mental or spiritual conviction, but
that it is mere concession to an enforced law.
On this point President WOODRUFF says
"Inasmuch as laws have been enacted by
Congress forbidding plural marriages, which

TOBACCO AND THE TARIFF.

lures with hesitating, hating step upon
what seems to have become sacred ground
tabooed from Tribune intrusion the
tariff. We are pleased to state that for
once it has told some truth on the question,
and for once we eau agree with it. 1t des-
cribes the effect of the tariff bill in regard
to tobacco as follows:
4 No one but ricn people or shoddy people will
smoke Havana cigars after couple OF months
more. They will be too costly.
Nothing would be simpler Hereafter
the cabbage leaf will replace the cheap
American leaf, while the latter will re-
place the fragrant Havana leaf heretofore
used for wrappers and for admixture with
the American leaf. A good cigar cannot
be made without an admixture of foreign
tobacco, the tax on which has
been increased for the leaf to-
bacco, the kind most needed, from
70 cents to $40 per pound if without
the stem, and from 81 to STE pound il

temporary, therefore, that no one but the
rich can afford to pay for the luxury of the
flavor and fragrance of real Havana. is
merely a concise statement Of a well
reasoned and easily demonstrable fact. AS
concise. pointed, cold truth, it is com
parable with JAY GoULD's statement that
the only effect of the tariff on cloth will be
to make the poor man wear only one suit oil
clothes where he now wears two. How
easily these protectionists solve the tariff

off sugar, so that they could now get that
article as cheaply as foreigners can. He
evidently congratulated the wrong people.
He should have sent his words of good
cheer to the foreigners, if it be that they
formerly paid the tax. And if the foreign
ers did pay that tax, Mr.. MCKINLEY is
evidently in alliance with them to rob our
treasury Of ss6, 600, 600 yearly, by removing
the tax. Apart from this absurdity, why
should a protectionist call attention to I'M
taxed sugar as good things 1t is an ad-
mission that free sugar is blessing to the
people. Why, then. would not free iron,
lumber, cloth, and tin be also blessings?

PENSIONS.

The greed for pensions is liable to bring
on reaction which will sweep the scandal
Gus laws out of the books and work an in
justice to the worthy soldiers and their de-
pendent families. There is danger that one
of these days the voters will rise up in their
majesty and elect men to Congress who
will not dare to use the public treasure
with which to buy ballots, as both Demo
Gratis and Republicans are doing, the former
because they haven't the manhood and the
courage to oppose the manifest wrong, and
the latter because they believe in the do,
trine expressed by VANDERBILT, when he
said "the people be ID"
At the close of the last fiscal year the
pension rolls bore the names of 537, 00(
persons, among whom were nearly four
hundred thousand soldiers of the
civil war. Think of almost hall
million men who fought on
the union side quarter of century age
claiming that they were either wounded or
injured in their health to such an extent
or are so poor by reason of their service
that they need the money! Putting senti
ment aside and looking at the matter with
intelligence and reason, is it not something
of a disgrace that SO many of the men who
were brave enough to fight should now
virtually confess themselves unable to earn
living!
The report issued by the pension bureau
the other day said that since the close OF
the last fiscal year about 100000 claims
have been filed, some of them duplicates
but the great majority are original applica
tions. 1t is estimated that within a year
the number of pensioners will be doubled
and the expenditure amount to 5000, COX, 00(
per annum. These figures are simply
startling, and suggest the probability
OF as vigorous an onslaught upon the bad
pension legislation as there has been upon
the federal treasury. Nobody objects to
iiberality in the matter of pensions, where
the parties are deserving Everybody
wants to be just to the disabled and indi-
gent soldiers; but this spirit of iberality
and justice has been abused by demagogues
and made the most of by soldiers whose
greed is stronger than their honor. The
soldiers themselves and the real friends Of
the deserving poor who are entitled to the
nations bounty, would do well to call

ON the day that the news of Mckin-
ley's defeat reached Paris there was a
mad rush for his photographs and the
French cartoonists pictured him in all
manner OF crushed characters. Through
out the industrial regions OF the continent
his defeat was received with the widest
joy, and the English press and manufac-
turers also are even yet chuckling over
this mans early retirement from congress.
Thus it is that Mckinley's name all over
the world stands for protection to Amer
lean industry as against the cheap labor
products of foreign countries. 1t is plain
that sef-interest is at the bottom OF this
foreign exuberance, and consequently
Mckinley and his policy are all right from
an American point OF view.
