The outlook for the Cincinnati Con-
ference is for a very large gathering
But the outcome is what might be
called a tremendous uncertainty
If the gathering is as large as promis-
ed it will be impossible for such a
gathering to form itself according to
the Judgment, and in conformity
with the design of the promoters.
And, as we expect a crowd will be
there, so we fear a disturbance which
will lead, possibly, to breaking up
OF the convention. OF course this is
only an unshaped ''fear;;" but it will
require the most superlative skill and
unexampled power OF leadership to
bring the elements there gathered,
under subsection.
understand that a legion of men
have been sent there from unknown
sources to prevent a political move
ment being inaugurated.
. Bodies OF men have met together,
even in st. Paul, for the first time
seven or eight, elected a president and
secretary-and without charter
from any organization-but as indie
pendent alliances or clubs, sent dele
gates!
There will be an attempt made to
foist men on the convention who are
opposed to ''fiat money!" to forfei-
ture for principal; to separation of
the agricultural college in Minnesota;
to taxation of mortgages; to radical
measures of all kinds, even to free
coinage OF silver.
If such Attempts are made there will
be trouble-for the hard-handed farm
er from the prairies will stand no
such work-and there better be no
result than such result.

When farmers out in the state hear
of alliance movements, meetings and
organizations in St. Paul, it may be
supposed that the GREAT WEST staff
or Mr.. Eckford, or the Business
Agency men, are invited to partici.
pate, and are made familiar with the
movement"
Not at all. Everything is kept
within the City Gang. Never, dur
ing two years, has there been one
word, by invitation or suggestion,
uttered to one of the real alliance
men in St. Paul in regard to the
movements. Scores of secret, OF
'on-the-quiet, meetings or conclaves
by half-dozen or so-are held. But
no one ever knows who was there OF
what was done-except as the daily
papers tell about Phelps, or Hall, OF
Owen. When that contemplate Nc.
Gee called the wheat discussion at the
Capitol he put in 0. Fl Page, to lead
it, nor even told us of it. At the
Irvine discussion he got r. J. Hal
(O'Brien had not squelched him yet,
and not one solitary word to the
Chairman of the National Irvine
Committee, DR.. Frain, who knew the
Irvine movement in every factory O.
the United States! OF course Hal
knew nothing about Irvine. So out
rageous was this that we spoke to
sneak MCGEE about it-and he asked
us to invite Frain next time.
Now, this is all said not in spirit
OF fight. Why? Because this move
ment is built up in a sea OF trouble
and despite antagonism. Some day
all these causes OF trouble will be re
moved, and the organization will still
remain. The good will have beer
done, after the Halls and Fishes
have long since disappeared from the
scene! Whether in Joy or sorrow, the
movement will ''move''-unto its
final destiny.

IT is said that Indiana has a farm
mortgage debt that draws in interest
alone over two dollars an acre for
every acre of cultivated land in the
state. Good heaven! Just think OF
that drain on the sweat and muscle

love or money, to help him, and has

save what he has been able to gather

less than one hundred men are need
ed now in Dodge Co., to labor on the
farms. Nearly every one we ask says,
Can't get help. All gone to the
city
How about the girls? Gone to the
city too-many of whom cannot get
an honest living so they 60 into
houses of ill-fame. While here in the
country, old women from fifty to
seventy years Of age, are doing what
of their work they can do, and letting
the rest go undone. How long! o,
how long?"
Mr.. Buck speaks CHASTITY truth.
The cities are being crowded-the
country unpeopled of it's laboring
men and women. This process has
been developing for twenty years.
The cities are upbuilded- the country
depressed.
Why? Well there are a multitude
OF reasons. Success in life is now a
grab game, and the farmers are mot
in it." The farm laborer, first, can
get work, surely, only part of the
year. The rest OF the year he must
wander, or fly to the cities. Once in
the seething masses OF the CONNER
cial centres he remains there to strug-
gle. So small have become the prof.
it's Of farming that young man no
longer works for six or eight years on
the chances OF getting farm which
the commercial pirate will take from
him. The political, monopolistic rob-
berry OF the farm is at the basis OF
this deplorable condition.
BY far the most important and
comprehensive matter in all the prin-
ciples underlying the labor agitation
of this country, is the question OF Ma
tional finances. The question en-
braces the national banking system;
the destruction of silver values hyde
monetizing; the issue of fat money
direct from the government instead
of through gifts to bankers-and,
more important than all, and inter-
related, the loaning OF money on
lands at two per cent.
The last is by far the most impor-
tant element--for the reason that it
involves the other questions. When
money is loaned on real estate-and
small farms-the national bank will
be settled, the usury question will be
settled, the ''fiat" money question
will be settled, and the mortgage
eviction will cease forever in the land.
If any money" can have a surer ba-
sis than farm loans what kind of
money is it?

DUEL TALK IN CAROLINA.
A Nephew of the Governor Chal-
lelRes a Newspaper Man.


COLUMBIA, s. c., Jan. s.--The code of
honor has been dead in South Carolina for
years, but now it seems that an attempt has
been made to revive it, and by nephew of
Gov. Ben Tillinan and a son of Con-
gresham G orge d. Tillman. On Tuesday
evening IL was lear ned that George Legare
a personal friend of James H. Tillman, and
until the advent of the Tillma ite party to
power a Jaw STUDENT at the university. had
gone TO n. G. Gonzales, who until recently
was representative of the Charles Nel0S
and Courier in Columbia, aud asked him.
on behalf Of James II. Tillman, if he would
fig a duel, stating as his reason that he
had heard that Mr.. Gonzales had said he
was the cause of Lis being blackballed in a
club. Mr.. Legare, after receiving an
answer from Mr.. Gonzales, went away, and
early the next morning James H. TIllman
and his friends left the city. In
the meantime number of reports
were circulated, but in Columbia few or
none outside of newspa, er eli Giles knew
anything of the matter. Mr. Tillman and
his friends made no statement here, aud it
was thought the trouble had blown over.
A VERBAL CHALLENGE IGNORED.
Mr.. Gonzales informed Mr.. Legare that
he would not entertain a verbal challenge
to fight duel but that 1t must be in writ
ing. Up TO this time no definite action has
reen taken by either side. Mr.. Tillman and
his friend Mr.. Legare are both out of the
CITY. This af ernoon Mr.. Gonzales pub
iShed statement Of the affair, in which he
handled Mr.. Tillman very severely.
Rumor says that the backballing
story is not the real cause
of the affair, but that some
severe remarks of Mr.. Gonzales regarding
Gov. Tillman and his nephew in the report
of political meeting during the late cam
paign is at the bottom of the matter Re-
ports sent out from Augusta state that Mr..
nllman intends to forward a written chal-
lenge, but as vet none has reached Mr.. Con
zales, and even if it does and is accepted,
there can be no possibility of fight, as the
publicity given the affair destroys any
possibility of meeting
