National President of the Alliance, in com

President, eturned from Holton last night.
President Polk talked freely this morning

them carrying every Southern State, but
the question is will they be driven into that
partyP Four months ago l would have said
a new political party was not likely to fol-
low. 1t now seems impossible to prevent it.
The Alliance with US is in such condition
that 1t can be changed in one day into
political party. 1t was organized as nom
partisan institution and has been conducted

Treasury plan. Whether the Supreme
Council in February decides that a third
party must be placed in the field, or not, it

sands of votes in the South. The Demo-
Gratis have it in their power to stop the
movement by acceding to the st. Louis de-
mands. Nothing short OF that will avail,
and If it is not done the South is lost to
