ALL POLITICS.

There is no greater error preva-
lent than that the Farmers Alli-
ance is not a political body. The
very causes that produced this
great uprising Of farmers and Ia
borers were legislative. From the
time that the exception clause was
printed on the greenback, placing
the possessors Of gold in a position
to dictate the terms upon which
the creators OF wealth should have
the medium Of exchange down to
the present siringency, every i'll
that labor groans under has been
caused by legislation in favor Of
the creature Of legislation the
gold bug" How can these evils
be remedied except-by political
action? ? Hence The education ad-
vocated by the Alliance is that
which viii make politicians Of The
purest type, over as set forth in
the declaration Of principles-''to
educate the agricultural classes in
the science OF economical govern
ment in a strictly non-partisan
spirit" Properly taught, this
will make every member a. poll
iieian. but not in the sense that
our education Of ihe last twenty
Eve years has led US 90 look upon
politics. We have had pariisaui-m

The following exlraot from the
Kahoka, Moo Gazctte.lIerald,
printed at Dr. Frazec's old town,
foroibly illustrates the danger
with which tho public is always
confronted when procuring drugs
from incompetent OF Enthusiastically
druggists:
A case Of poisoning, the result
Of the gross carelessness or incom-
potency Of pretended druggist at
Wyaeonda occurred IN Washington
township, last week Fernando
pauly, a young man who resides
with his parents ia that township,
was feeling unwcll and sent his
brother to Wyaconda % procure
some Epson salts. w. S. Gray,
who represents himself as being
the proprietor Of The drug store re-
Gently owned by Or. Pcckstien,
dealt out what, il is charity to sup
pose, he believed to be salts, but
which proved to be chlorato oi
potassium. This was on Tuesday
Of last week, and young Pauly
took the package home e his
brother who took several doses Of
the deadly drug. A physician was
subsequently called IN and soon
discovered the character Of The
prescription and exerted himself
to save the PATIENTS life. Parties
also came to Kahoka and repre-
sented to Mr.. Montgomery what
had occurred, when that officer
caused Justice Shepperson to issue
warrant, last Saturday, for the
arrest of Gray, but when the con-
stable reached Wyaconda, the ac-
cused had skipped out. Young
Pauly continued to lingor IN great
agony until Wednesday Of this
week, when death ended his sui-
ferings. This sad occurrence
should be warning to people to
refuse to take drugs that are not
prescribed and compounded by a
registered practicing physician OF
pharmacist.

ilician and to the sorrow Of The la
borer The "science Of economical
government was entirely lost
sight Of. This misconception Of
what politics really is has caused
the impression among great
many people that Alliance men
must not take part in politics,
when in fact it is all politics II
is politics that calls the man TO the
people and not the people 70 the
man, the same rs witnessed re-.
Gently in Georgia when Gordon
was initiated into The Alliance,
He camc 10 the people when they
refused 10 50 70 him. The people
were the politicians, he their repre-
sentative and truly the servant Of
the people
The Alliance teaches an en-
tirely different doctrine from
either Of The old political parties
and when 4 man tells you that The
Alliance has been captured by
either Of them, you can smile,
and smile.

that II was only a scheme Of one
or the other Of the old parties TO
defeat the other Now il this far
mer's movement was scheme,
the politicians would have faith
cred it IN the first place and would
have been handling it all the
while. A well known politician
remarked not long since; Il will
have to join the Alliance; every
body else is joining and if ! do not
join will get left next summer"
This is only straw, but it shows
which way the wind is blowing
Watch the politicians and hold
them level
Now many men feel that their
old party affiliations are 50 great
that il would bo like pulling their
eye teeth 10 give them up, We
do notask men 70 leave their old
parties but to stay IN them and
work there to secure the right men
in office, 1t may never be neces-
sary for Alliance men to form a
new party 1t may never BE- nee
essary for Alliance men to entirely
sever their connection with the
old parties now in existence, but
If we ever do find such a course
necessary il will be after the ma
jority Of US have become educated
up to the necessity Of such a
course. Besides, probably fifty
per cent. Of our members are non
citizens and any partisan move
ment on our part would be going
into something that they could
have no sympathy with nor take
any active part in.

THE ALLIANCE AND INDI
WIDUAITTY.

The Alliance wages no war
against the accumulation Of wealth;
as wealth is one Of the foundations
Of prosperity, it is The reward Of
industry: the individuality Of ones
existence is individual wealth, but
while all men arc born equal, all
men are not equally born in brain
capacity or in the struggle for
riches. they arc very unequal. For
this reason it is very important
that the teachings Of this order
should carry its principles into the
legislature and congress and such
laws be enacted as win protect the
weak from the strong, the poor
from the corrupt legislation by the
gold Of the rich. There needs to
be a complete revolution in our
laws. During the years since the
war little heed has been given TO
our laws or who made them, or by
what method they were secured.
The results are trusts, protection
for the rich and everything that
tends to make tho rich richer, and
the poor poorer. The teachings
and principles Of this Alliance if
carried out according to its obliga-
tions free from corrupting inau-
enccs will equalize all these dan
gers in justice and equality to all,
both the rich and the poor. Let
us all struggle, one with another,
to accomplish the great objects and
teachings of the order. Rex.

POLITICAL THOUGH NoN.PAR-

1t is refreshing TO see the des-
perate efforts some Of the politi-
clans are making to get into and to
ultimately control the Alliance
movement in this nation. They
recognize the fact that Sin union
there is strength" and they would
like to have The benefit Of t9at
strength ia the coming campaign.
Nothing short Of being thrown
upon their backs and sat upon by
the Alliance will convince them
that their services will not be
needed.
The Alliance, itself is really a
political organization but not Of
the partisan kind. We have been
so accustomed TO associatc with
the term political party preju-
dice, party spirit, bossism and
trickery. that we accept with a
good deal Of disirust anything that
savors Of politics, and we fire.

the other element that helped to
destroy the grange, that in its
eaily days bid so fair to help
break up these dangerous trusts

Every new store should be encour-
aged aud the good will Of the
Union should so with it and every
encouragement possible given TO
stimulate it and to encourage
other stores to start, bringing about
as much competition as possi Bile

Alliance stores exclusive trade is
destroying the very principles upon
which this order is founded, for
protection is the very element that
is running this country and which
this order has to remove first and
to recommend exclusive stores is
as dangerous as the trusts and

The same restraint needs to be
held over the politicians. Here
is wherc the protection is needed
to keep them from uniting within
our order. A few Of any clique
admitted results in no great dam

is a danger that menaces every
order and calls for the enforcement
OF our most solemn obligation and
no regard for a friend, or no oily
tongue or undue influence, should

INDIAN CuIEFrAIS:-Please al
low me space in your valuable
paper to say few words in regard
to our lodge. TO start off, | will
say j. w. Parker, our county lee
turer, was with us and delivered a
good lecture to an open lodge on
the 27th, the evening Of our last
meeting. Everybody was invited
but owing to one or two disap-
pointmonts lately theaudiehce was
small. If all Of our members,
sixty-seven in all, had been pres
ent as they should have been (for
it was our last meeting in the
quarter) we would have had a
good audience. Our members are
getting very careless of late and
there have not been more than one
third Of them present for some
time. This can easily be construed
into q violation Of the obligation
assumed and portrays failure for
Pryor Creek Union if the evil is
not promptly remedied.
Up to the present time
only sixteen members have paid
their dues. This is a bad state Of
affairs as my report has to be sent
in at once. trust there will be
as little delay as possible but !

has repealed the old and requires
both citizens and non-citizens to
undergo examination before engag-

The penalty for violation is very
severe, and there will be no ehild's
