THE SOUTHERN ALLIANCE.


This Term il a Misnomer, Used Only by
Apostles of DIscord and Sectional Hate.
The National Farmers Alliance has passed
no such resolution (sub- treasury. Tbs
body that passed it Is the National Farmers
Alliance and Industrial Union, or as 1t is
commonly called the Southern Alliance"
The fact that the National Farmers Alliance
and the National Farmers Alliance and In
dustrial Union are two separate and distinct
bodies, having no connection beyond the
similarity in name, can not be too constant
ly kept in view.-Homestead.
There is no such body in existence as
the Southern Alliance" Nor is the
National Farmers Alliance and In
dustrial Union" commonly called the
Southern Alliance" by anybody except
a few Republican editors, who con-
stantly live, move and have their being
in an atmosphere of petty sectional
jealousy and hatred. The country has
had enough Of this business. The Alli-
ance is not a sectional organization. 1t
has higher aims and nobler purposes.
Its noblest purpose is to Danish Sec
tionalism and lead the whole country
to the common ground of brotherhood,
where, under humane legislation, the
rights of the humblest as well as the
mightiest shall be secured. This is the
feeling of the Alliance everywhere,
without regard to the particular divis-
ion to which they chance to belong.
The States of New York, Kansas,
South Dakota, North Dakota, Pennsyl-
vania, Michigan, Indiana, Colorado,
California-ten Northern States-be-
long to the Farmers and Laborers' In
dustrial Union, and the Knights of La
Dor everywhere belong to this union.
Many local Alliances in Iowa belong
also. Besides this, the whole body Of
the. Alliance in this State, Nebraska,
Minnesota and elsewhere entertain the
friendliest possible feeling for their
brethren of the "Union," as it is called.
The two Alliance bodies are in substan-
tial accord in their platforms. They
may not be in unison regarding the
''sub-treasury system" but they declare
with one voice that the National bank
system shall go. They are a unit on
that They have agreed upon the sub
treasury which they don't want. We
can safely trust to their ultimate judg-
ment as to the other.-Iowa Tribune.

The ''Big Three"

Over in Illinois, three Peoples party
men hold the balance of power in the
Legislature, and steadily cast their
votes for A. j. Streeter for United
States Senator. The Democrats think
1t high treason for these Independents
to stand In the way of Palmer's cleo
ton; but the Independents can't see
any difference between a Democrat
hard-money man and Republican
hard-money man. Palmer may be an
honest old man. but Illinois Democracy,
under its present leadership, wouldn't
support him for Senator If his opinions
on the money question were not in har-
mony with the money poweE.-Ex-

Hopkinsville Market.

The following is Ben Tbompson's
tobacco report for 1890:
The past year has been in the main
satisfactory to the trade. The market
opened firm at reasonable prices, and
steadily advanced, especially in leaf,
until tbs greater portion of the crop
was sold. The receipts were lighter
than was expected, a much larger
quantity of tobacco than usual being
diverted for stemming purposes, and
purchases by loose dealers from other
markets.
The 1890 crop, while no larger than
the preceding one, will give us much
larger receipts. Say 5000 lbs, or
fifty per cent. more than past season,
on account of renewed exertions on
the part of our commission mer-
chants, and an enlarged territory to
draw from. | repeat that while the
crop is not gummy or heavy, yet it
will be a working and Reggie one,
clean, leafy, free from worm-cut and
tough, showing some good wrappers
and a small supply of desirable Ger
man types.
quote prices as follows: Inside
prices apply more especially to the
old, and outside prices to the new
crop.)

| Remedy is the best:
|. 1t will cure a severe cold in less
time than any other treatment.
2. 1t does not suppress a cough OF

3. 1t relieves the lungs, which is of
great importance in treating Il cold.
4. 1t is the only remedy that will
cause the expulsion of mucus from the
air cells of the lungs.
5. 1t renders the mucus less tena-
cious and easier to eXpectorate.
6. If freely used as soon as the first
symptoms appear, it will cure severe
cold in a single day.

The Pipe Was Attached.

The Supreme court on last Friday
decided quite an interesting suit, ana
enc that has local application just
At this season. The Arctic Refriger
ating Company, of Nashville was Or
ganized for the purpose of supplying
"cold vapor" to distant consumers
very much as illuminating gas is fur
nished. Pipes were laid through the
streets for the distribution of the
vapor. The company made general
assignment, and could pay nothing.
A lady, Mrs. Perry, who had fur
nished supplies to the company at
tached the pipe in the ground as a
part of the property of the defunct
firm. The court held that she was
entitled to a mechanics lein on the
whole plant. The plant considered
in reference to its purposes must be
taken as an entirety, and the pipes
being essential for carrying on bust
ness must be considered as part of the
plant. The court also held that the
mechanics lein was paramount to all
other charges on the property.
