Alliance Strength.

The New York Herald, after cor
respondence with the presidents and
secretaries of the various assemblies.
reports that the Farmers Alliance
throughout the nation numbers ], 3O0,-
600 members, beside the Colored Al
lance of 100000; the North Western
Alliance in Nebraska, Iowa, Minneso-
to and Wisconsin, It's, 900; the Farm
ers' Mutual Benefit Association in
OHIO. Indiana and Illinois, 10000;
the Patrons of Husbandry. 200, 600; the
Knights of Labor, 100000, and the
Citizens Alliances whose nmbers are
not computed.
The combined figures are startling
and represent nearly one-third of our
voting strength, with prospects of
great increase In membership to all
the organizations. OF course, it is
predetermined whether they can be
held together during presidential
campaign, but in any event. the dis
play of strength promises an interest
ing future.-CI Champion.

As Ingalls, says: The republican
party is confronted with great prob
lens which threaten its supremacy.
The American people are more con-
cerned now about the present and the
future than the past. They are con-
sidering the finances, commerce,
wages, prices, immigration, suffrage,
the unjust distribution of wealth, the
unequal diffusions of the burdens
and benefits of society and are indif-
ferent to dogmas and discipline.
The republIcanism of the future must
readjust itself to the changed .condi-
tons of American life, or it will per-
ish. I wish to save it from this fate
10y recalling the spirit, the energy,
the aggressive and patriotic force of
its founders to the campaign of 1892.
This will be waged upon economic
and political questions and not upon
memories or emotions. If we have
courage and conscience 1t will be an
Austerlitz. If we dicker with popu-
lar errors, compromise with unprin-
cipled leaders and sneer at honest
differences, it will be Waterloo.

There have been several funer ais
lately, but we heard nothing of them
until it was too late for mention.
Small grain is fine; corn has gain

Mr.. Bennett discoursed feeingly on
the "a verses of Rev. q chapter, last
Sabbath. Afterward he read a CIR

Chicago, requesting an expression of

closing on Sunday of the Columbian
Exposition of '93. There was no IN
decision or hesitancy; but almost all

The law passed by the recent Kan
sas legislature providing that eight
hours shall be a days work for all
employees of the state Will neeessitate
the closing of all state institutions un-
less special arrangements are made
for keeping them open. The work of
these institutions cannot be done if
the present force of employees work
only eight hours. To do the work
properly will necessitate the employ
ment of 1900 new employees. The
appropriations passed by the late leg
islature will not permit of the employ
ment of any more employees. The
governor will probably call a special
session of the Legislature to pass emer-
gency appropriations, so as to permit
the employment of the necessary extra
number of state servants.

Elk Judge Cole, who came out last
Sunday IN the absence of the Baptist
minister, talked very interesting on
the subject, ''Cast thy burden on the

that many of the people will have
something to ponder over all week.

The republican papers complain
that the Peoples Party only fourishes
in Republican States, and that the
Democratic States viii have none of
it The masses of the Republican
party are intelligent men and if they
desert their old party for the new,
there must be some reason for it.
The HKRALD believes that many of
ex-republicans in the Peoples Party
were dissatisfied with the policy and
management Of that party, and, as
they had no love for the Democratic
party with its past record joined the
new party with the hope of correct
ipg existing evils.

pounds to the acre, covering it light

good fall pasture, the first year. At
ter the first year the crop can be cut
twice for hay and once for seed. The
yield of hay is about one and a half
tons each cutting. During a wet
season three crops Of hay can be cut.
The value of the hay is double that
of prairie hay for feeding cattle and
horses. have not cut any for seed.
The price per bushel Is now S.. The
value of the total product of hay and
seed per acre varies from $35 to $50.
w. I. CARSON, Heizerton Have
grown alfalfa fourteen years, and
now have seventy acres growing on
bottom land. I SOW the seed in the
spring, using from twenty to thirty
pounds to the acre. If the season is
favorable two crops of hay may be
cut during the first year. From three
to four cuttings can be made during
the season after the first year. The
yield is from three to five tons IN the
aggregate. Value per ton, IS; prairie

seed; the yield is from six to nine
bushels per acre; value per bushel 81.
The value of total product of hay

in growing alfalfa. I pillow in the

seed to the acre, covering it with 6
light harrow. The crop during the
first year is not of value for hay Oh
