the people Of this county 20 issue bonds
in the sum Of forty thousand dollars TO
be used for the purpose of buying u

right, under present conditions, To issue

ALI IN THE FAMILY.

There IL an open rupture between the
two wings 81 the Farmers Alliance, aud
it il now generally conceded that the
third party movement will bs II failure.
The Dies Moines Homestead, the leading
Alliance paper oi Iowa, devotcs whole
page OF ito last issue to showing up the
inwardneEs Cf the southern wing. and
declares ,hut the republican farmers Of
Iowa arc opening their eyes tn the fact
that the southern Alliance is merely n
tender To the democratic party, aud has
no intention Of severing the connections
with that party. Ia view OF this condi-
ton OF thugs, they have no intention Of
abandoning the republican party. I'm.
der the circumstances such a move
would be altogether one sided.
This declaration 81 the Homestead ia
in line with the statement ~ President
McCrath, 81 the Kansas Alliance, that
the southern Alliance mus, abandon the
democracy IL it expects the northern
Alliance 10 abandon the republicans.

TnG NATIONAL LHA..tE

The Republican National League,
which met Mt Cincinnati this Week, was
one OF the most important rolttlca! gath.
erings % the year, but II must be- al
mitted that no good has been done I" the
republican cause 10y the intentional IN
suit offered TO the presidcn, ~ the
United States by c1 Gov. Foraker. Of
Ohio, in his welcoming speech and r.
psated by Mr.. Thurston in his opening
address. Both ~ these gentlemen utter
ly ignored Mr.. Harrison, and one them
--Foraker referred TO the present nd
ministratlon Az the administration ~
James G.. Blaine"
Such u course cannot possibly do any
good. Mr. Blaine il 30 strongly cn
trenched in the affections OF the people
that nothing OF this sort can do any thing
to strengthen his position in the public
mind, but II can and undoubtedly will
do a great deal toward alternating frum
him the friends Of Mr.. Harrison, who
constitute II very important elemcnt 81
the republican pnrty, While Wa have 40
doubt Of the fact tina, We can ana viii
elect the president next year, /, would
10 prudent for US 10 remember that w
shall not likely have any vu,es To throw
away, and cannot afford 10 do any,hlnH
to make sore places in the party, The
friends OF Mr.. Blaine can show their
friendship for him without putting any
sights os insults upon Mr. Harrison; his
admirers should remember that MIR
Blame IN now recognized IN both HON
ispheres As 'the foremost man u oil the
world" and that n emphasizing hit
greatness II 10 not necessary nor prudent
for thsIp TO resort To the doubtful ex
pedisu' OF attempting to bcllttle other
great men. MIR. Foraker and MIR, Thurs
ton made mistake, aud one which III,
party canLot afford To have repeated.
