president; b. II. Glover, vice-president;
J. II. Turner, secretary, and six or eight
other officials entitled to vote, making
the total voting strength of the conven-
tion about 100. So far as the sub-trcas-
ury plan is concerned, the vote upon IL
was almost unanimous in its favor. as
will be seen from the following edito-
rial statement in the National Econ
omist:
one OF the most gratifying results of the
late National meeting was the adoption Of
the sub treasury plan with but four dissent
ing votes. After year OF discussion from
every possible point OF view, after ali the
ridicule and contcmptuous treatment ID has
received from the hands OF its opponents,
but four votes could be found against Il la a
convention that represented thirty five
States. No better evidence is needed Of the
rapid Advancement OF economic education
among the people
So far as the absurd report is con
cerned, as set afoat by Democratic
sheet down in Florida, that the Alliance
in the Northwest did not indorse the
sub-treasury bill, but that the delegates
from the Northwestern States voted for
the plan in order to induce the Southern
delegates to indorse the call for the
formation of an Independent political
party. the following dispatch complete
~ sets that report at rest:
ToPEKA. Kan. Dec I5.-The various promi-
ncnt kansas Farmers Alliance men men
toned in last nights dispatches as having
been concerned in a plot TO disintegrate the
Southern Democracy by supporting the sub.
treasury bill ct the recent Farmers Alliance
convention laughed at the story to- day.
Messrs. Willetts, Chase and others said they
voted for the sub treasury blll because they
believed in It, and they have no apologies 20
make 60 their constituents for having so
voted.
The snh-sreaSalrv plan Teill .ssa a;>s>fs
its own merits. Il IS the most remark
able and beneicent financial reform
measure Of the age. and those who op-
pose it are simply butting against a
stone wall. GFOReF &. Warn
