compelled long ago to confess failure and
have relspsed into despot;sm. We can
not succeed when the pc pile suffer them
selves to be overcome with ind f-rence
"a to their Fate q d the a e IF their c0un-
try. Washington warned us in that trite
max N, Eternal vigilance is the price of
liberty" jIst what we must observe and
just whit avoid in order to secure the
perpetuitv Of our Institutions, and we
need not think that thi warning was idle
ard pointiess, and uttered simply to fl
up Il speech The case is quite different;
it simply lays down the only condition
upon which we can continue to be free.
TIE struggle for bread which the masses
Of this country have been compelled to
make for the last twenty-five years has
very nearly driven from the minds of
Americans any concern whatever for the
safety of their government, or for their
political condition, and their only ain
seems to be simply to get through life,
and then die and be at peace. This con-
dItiOn of continual struggle is due to the
carelessness of the people with respect to
politics, owing to which the willy monop-
olists have been enabled to take complete
control of the government and run It
solely in their own interest and for their
own benefit. Congress has granted $780,
900 square miles of territory 10 railroads,
an area equal to seven States l Ike Tenn9s,
see. One English noble is said to own
an extent of territory equal 10 that of the
State of Mississippi, and the money COM
bine together with other combines, have
managed during that peri ID to absorb 10
per cent. Of all the wealth Of this country.
The people need not whine or complain
about their misfortune in this matter;
they alone are responsible. The ballot is
still free; we are still exempt from the
affection of a great standing army or the
presence IF national troops at the polls
and there is no reason why we should not,
in tw -nty-four hours, when election day
rolls around, set all these abuses to rights
-no reason except our W self imposed
ignorance ana carelessness. Then, breth-
rem, read. read treatises upon the subject
of your CHS and interests, read the
newspapers devoted 20 the same 'ubject,
listen to speeches delivered by your
friends, read The Declaration of Independ-
ence, read President Folks message, and
by these means arouse yourselves

APPEAL.
an hour.

HURON, S. D., Dec oath, 1890.
Pursuant t. the authority given US by
tn State Alliance of South Dakota IN
session at Mitchell, November 9th 1890,
and with the approval at the Executive
Committee of The State Alliance wemake
this appeal to the Alliance and all other
labor organizations in the United States.
Our farm populat on have struggled
most heroically for the pa t two years
against a burning drouth. They have
labored and prayed that they mighth be
so blessed as to be spared the humiliation,
if humiliation it is, of appealing to the
benevolent for aid in their sore dist ess.
In sixteen counties of our State we find
the crop of the present year to have beer
almost a total failure. This, in addition
to the more extended failure Of last year,
leaves many of our members in a destitute
and pitiable condition. Not less than five
thousand of our families are in need OF
aid. Many members of our order are IN
need of -four for bread, while many more
are without corn or oats to feed taelr
horses, no vegetables for their families,
children out of school for the want of
clothes to protect their bodies, and no
seed grain for the coming spring and no
money to make purchases. A large per
centage of our people have, from time to
time, been obliged to mortgage their stock
and their homes to purchase provisions,
groceries and clothing for their families,
and to pay taxes and interest, trusting
each wear in a kind Providence for some
coming crop to relieve them of their
distress. In thousands of those homes
nothing but hay is used for fuel, and
when the cold storms shall sweep down
upon these cherries habitations, as surely
they will, no mortal pen can tell the
suffering that will ensue. While making
this appeal 10 you we do not forget the
relentless, untiring exertion that is required

on the part of the laborer in all sections
of our country to gain a livelihood. We
fully realize the c ,ndition tina. eonfronts
US; but to you who have enjoyed a
reasonable degrte Of prosperity, to you
who have enough and to spare, we come,
asking hat you may contribute whatever

corn, oats, millet seed, or other grain
suitable or feed or planting; clothing Of
all kinds Gold or new) boots and shoes,
bedding and any or all articles used in a
IA mers home, or money with which 10
purchase the same. All donations, from
whatever source, shall be received and
distrioutrd to the needy members of our
order under the direction of this COM
mlttee, and every p~recautiOn will be
taken to prevent incorporation or
imposition. We propose to relieve our
worthy needy and see to it that all relief
is properly distributed and receipts given
for the same.
In the spirit Of our association, and
realizing the kindly feeling IF one toward
another in our fraternity, we send forth
this appeal in full confidence that you will
give it a hearty response.
Anyone pieased to make contributions
to this relief fund may deliver the same
to any of cur solicitors duly commissioned,
in writing, by our chairman and secretary,
and countersigned by the President and
Secretary Of the State Alliance, with the
seal of the Alliance thereto affixed; or
such contributions may be sent direct to
W. FL. Curtiss secretary, whose head
quarters are at Kimoall, Brule county,
South Dakota. No shipment of donations
to the S cretary must be made until after
corresponding with him and receiving his
instructions as to where to ship the
same.

JUPITER's RoTATIoN.-Among the analo-
gies traced between the planet Jupiter and
the sun is the rotation Of the equator at a
more rapid rate than the rest of the sur
face. A Russian astromer, B~iolopOlski,
has lately combin ed the observations and
drawings of many different observers, and
has been able to determine more than a
hundred angular velocities at various lati-
tudes upon Jupiter. These indicate
that a zone Of so on either side of the
equator rotates in nine hours and fifteen
minutes, the surface beyond 10 degrees to
north or south in about nine hours 55.5
minutes, and the points between five de-
grees and 10 degrees north or south in an
intermediate period.
A NOTEWORTHY BooK.-f Emerson's

AWAKE FROM YOUR sLUMBER,

We hope that every man and woman in
the land will read and re-read the great
message of President Polk, delivered re-
Gently at the Ocala Council. l. is the
perusal of documents like this that in
structs the masses in the doctrines of lib
erty. In this degenerate age, Jefferson's
Declaration of independence has fallen
into disuse, and it does seem that fate is
really ripening the people for impending
and inevitable despotism. Too many
people take it for granted that our expert
ment in the employment OF a republican
form of government is bound to succeed.
They forget the world is several tho 1sand
years old, and that numerous peoples in
different ages, tried the same experiment,
and uniformly failed. Switzerland, by
reason of her limited territory and small
number of inhabitants, seems to have had
pretty smooth sailing, but it is almost
certain that if her domain had extended
over half of Europe, she would have been

NEW YORK DEMOCRATIC.

THE indications arc that New York
state has passed Into the control OF the
Democrats. That means that the vote
Of New York win 20 for the next
Democratic candidate for the preslden-
cy. This does no, decide the question
az TO which party will gain the victory,
because tho Republicans may be- able
TO DO without New York, while the
Democrats certainly eau not.
Neither does II decide the question
as to the nominee OF the party. Of
course the voice OF New York will be-
potent Ia the national convention. Its
choice of candidate win have woIghty
consideration. Aud II Is not improbable
that II New York delegates agree upon
a man he will become the standard
bearer Of the party. Who lie will DO is
not yet clear enough TO decide.
While tho turn Of affairs In New
York does not necessarily signify defeat
TO the Republicans, whose success
does not depend on that State, It can.
not DO denied that II IL great on
couragement TO the Democrats. aud
makes the two parties more nearly
