tuition of the United States The ALI
hnce has noble work to do aRd is sues
eeedlng In its mission. The Mighty, in
vlncible politician who few stars ago
" uld not deign to touch an ord nary
farmer with a ten foot pole, now bows
profoundly low to the honest filler of the
soil, and sometimes even goes SO far as
to give up his seat in congress to some
sockless old farmer with instructions that
be attend to business while said politician
goes home to get acquainted with the
people he was sent to congress to repre-
sent. Read and study for yourself and
you will have few mods OF approval for
the partisan press.

turner's Adgocate (Tarboro, N G. says;
''rhe Alliance has done more to educate
the people than any other organization In
this country. Men who took but little
interest in the affairs Of the country in
the past are manifesting great interest in
them now. Then again, to show its
power as an educator, you will find more
men who were entirely ignorant on i'm
portant questions who now comprehend
them. The masses are reading, writing
and studying, and surely there will be a
wise solution on momentous question,
that are presented. This Alliance moves
ment is nothing short of great revolu-
ton. 1t is composed of some of the best
w1sest and most upright people in this
country, and those who are opposing the
movement might as we'll come forward
and recognize its importance and fall into
line. 1t is going to sweep this country
like cyclone The people who contrib
ute literally of their support to this gov
ernment are restless and determined upon
a charge in its policy, and though we are
hot prophet, we feel safe in saying that
there will be a radical change. And the
day is not far distant,

Governor Jones, of Alabama, has APP
pointed Hector D. Lano of Limestone
county, commissioner of agriculture,
vice r. f. Kolb, whose term has ex-
PRED Lano was an original alliance
man, one of the organizers in Alabama,
assistant lecturer for two terms, and for
while editor of the state organ. He
always opposed the alliance entering
politics, but favored its standing to the
original declarations. He occupied
position similar to that of Hall of Mis-
souri,. Kolb will contest the governors
right to appoint, claiming that the law
making the Office electoral at the cleo
ton in 1892 continues him in Office until
that time. The Legislature refused to
adopt the clause in the law to that ef-
feet.
The Alliance Bulletin Harper, Kans. }
says: with the sub treasury plan in
operation, the grip of Shylock upon the
producers would be loosened. Instead
of being compelled to force his wheat
upon the market to save his chattles, the
farmer would be enabled to borrow
enough upon his wheat to relieve his
present obligations and hold his wheat
until prices advance to such point as to
his labor. -

The Alliance Aid Association is being
favorably considered in several States,
and it now seems probable that the pro-
ject for its being made national will be
successful AS cheap fraternal life in

and would be an additional bond be-
tween members.
