L. E. Livingston, president of the
Georgia Farmers Alliance, visited To
peka; Kan, lately, and initiated the
Kansas farmers into the Georgia ALI
ance methods But he has views on the
Union soldier pension business as fol-
lows: 81 must take stronger ground
against the infamous pension swindle,
for saw lots of lazy, healthy bummers,
able bodied, who should be at work on
the farms, and would, were it not that
they are supplied in idleness by PEN
sion. They are no better than our ex-
confederates, who are compelled to earn
their living by manual labor, and are,
therefore, much more self respecting
lot Of fellows. Had our southern ALI
ance the power we would abrogate all
pensions. The war was over more than
twenty-five years ago, and our southern
people wou't stand that swindle any
longer" ....

The Weather

Under date of October 6 Prof. Foster
gives forecasts of the weather as follows:
In my last letter I mentioned an i'm
portant storm period extending over the
first half of October, and gave the dates,
LIST to 9Th, on which the first storm
wave of the month would cross the con-
tinent. From the 9Th to the 7th clear
ing weather was expected to cross the
continent from west to east, and the
next storm wave was due to leave the
Pacific coast about the 9TH, cross the
central valleys from 9Th to 10th and
reach the Atlantic coast about the 18th.
Following this storm I expect the turn
to come toward wintry weather. Not
all over the country as has been stated
by some, but beginning in the highlands
of Colorado and the Dakotas and grad
ually reaching the central valleys much
earlier than is usual. I also expect that
frosts will about complete the destruction
of tender vegetable growths as far south
as Jacksonville, Mobile and San Antonio.
The September drouth and heat of the
central valleys will have disappeared
and the first two storm waves of October
list to 11th-will produce more rain
in the west that did all those of Septem-
Der. The October storm waves will take
routes more to the south than did those
of September. September storms spend
their greatest force in Europe.
