SOME Of the workings OF the state
Alliance have been revealed. Ben
Clover INTRODUCED a resolatiOa APP
propriating $1,000 Of the a4.Oee In
the Alliance treasury to campaign
purposes. The resolution vas voted
down In o decided manner and Mr..
Clover was not only not reelected
president Of the state Alliance but
he was left of the board Of directors.
As q result Of the action OF the state
Alliance In refusing TO take q stand
on the Temperance question, q sui =
Alliance In Lyon county has sur
rendered its charter and has gone
out Of the business. The attempt Of
Clover 10 gobble $1,000 OF the AL
lance funds for campaign purposes
has disguised many Alliance dele
gates and their reports hxve not
added 10 the Alliance strength any
where. The poll by the state ALI
ance officially revealed q falling of
In membership which was anything
but satisfactory. They have been
claiming 10000 votes and q total
membership Of 10000, including
men, women and youths Of both
sexes. The Official report showed
but T6,0O0 votes IL the order. one
fourth Of whom would not support
the Peoples ticket. This leave but
5000 votes, which includes the
Union Labor vote.
The leaders acknowledge their
error In bringing Polk into the state.
~ his rebel record was Of such an
unsavory character. Then, too, the
leaders of the Alliacee zee that they
made n mistake In permitting the
old Union Labor cranks TO assume
the leadership, forgetting that these
same Union LabOrites organized
their party and reaTmed II for them.

urge upon all Republicans To give
all OF our candidates an earnest sup
port, both with voice and vote. We
have not q doubt Of their election,
but In view Of the tremendous efforts
being made by the Peoples party
aided by Democrats, to work their
defeat an effort more than usually
should be made To give
them a larger majority than usual.
Right now l. the time 10 give this
Oaih.bound party Its everlasting

Mr.. DOLAN will not discuss the
issues with Mr.. See, we learn, hut IL
