INDIANAPOLIS, November 2O.-The
various farmers organizations have
nearly acompleted their work, and the
Allianes, which is holding out the long
est, will probably finish its work to-
morrow. To-day the f. B. M. A. ad-
journed after amending it's constitution
so as to admit to membership women
and men over eighteen years OF age. 1t
resolved not to amalgamate with any
other organization until the February
meeting. The F. M. B. A. also re-
elected Treasurer Haines and Board
of Trustees.
The delegates to the February meet
ing were instructed to vote for inde-
pendent political action. The Alliance
to-day changes its constitution to admit
women. The anti-sub-treasury people,
after issuing a call for a convention at
Memphis, December 10, published two
column card charging Mr.. Macune with
wrecking the Texas Alliance Exchange
and making big money thereby, and
with trying TO sell out the Alliance to
the old political parties. Most OF these
charges were made at the Ocala meet
ing.
The Reform Press Association
! threatens to bolt the Alliance II the
State Agents Association carries out
its purpose of making all purchases
through the National Union Company.
The People party men are the best
satisfied of all those who have gathered
here. They claim to have secured all
they came for and even more. Tonight
| the National Executive Committee Is
sued an address to the people OF the
| United States as follows:
The National Committee OF the Peo-
ple's party of the United States deem it
| proper to lay before their constituents
| at this time some statement OF the re-
suits Of the conference held by them.
| These results have beer most satisiac-
tory. There is no doubt that candidates
for President and Vice President will
be in the field before June, 1892, nomi-
mated by the Peoples party. This is an
| important event in the history OF the
Nation and of civilized man. There has
been no precedent for it in any OF the
past ages. The producing classes have
hitherto remained impoverished In the
midst of the very plenty which they
created, those who toiled not have pos
| sessed the wealth OF the world while
those who have toiled have too often
suffered f0g 81 tSes HscfsaaEisS Of I.! lie;
rne Peoples party has organized. No
man can rail to acknowledge the neces-
sity for such a movement. We have
seen the shadow of plutocracy spread
ing steadily over our land. We have
seen the railroad corporations grow
from humble beginning the humble
servitors of the people into vast and
! powerful conspiracy.
We have seen the daily newspaper
press, instead Of being the defender OF
right against all comers, coerced by its
business necessities into becoming
ready instruments to bind
the shackes of serfdom on the
limbs Of free people, to confuse their
minds by sophistres; to still their ears
with falsehoods; to uphold everything
that is destructive to public good, and
to crush everything that would help the
DeODle.
