HEREs RICHNESS FOR YOU.

From the Junction City Tribune.
In 1880 there was an over-production of
whiskies all over the United States. The
distillers and wholesale dealers were greatly
embarrassed, their product being permitted
by law TO remain in bond only three years.
Congress, in order to relieve their distress
and remedy the difficulty, enacted law,
permitting the expectation of whiskies to
foreign lands, to remain there as long as
desired by the owners, then to be reimpOrted
to this country subject to the same taxation
as if they had remained at home and been
taken out of bond at the end Of three years.
These whiskies have made two sea voyages
and are greatly benefited by them. We
recommend them TO the trade as strictly
pure, well matured and desirable for medi-
cal purposes.-A. Fl. Dreyfus & Co., Whole
sale Liquor Dealers.
The farmer to whom had been sent the
circular from which the above extract was
taken, In directing our attention to the
same pertinently inquiries:
II a special act could be passed by Con-
gress Gin order to relieve their (the liquor
men's) Distress" why is it "unConstitu-
tional'' to pass a measure calculated TO re-
lieve the farmers distressp
There was time when the RESPONSE
bility Of answering such a question as
the above would be shifted back and
forth by the old party politicians, each
party charging the other withthe iniquity
needing explanation; but since the
"twins" have kissed and made up, since
they have "jined drives" to down the
people, such idiOsyncracy must now be
laid aside, hence the farmers inquiry
becomes equally applicable to either
member Of the so-cslled "non-psrtissn"
combination. Don't all speak at once.

OF Virginia Closes its Session of Several
Days at Richmond.
RICHMOND, Va, August 1.-THE Col
ored Farmers Alliance of Virginia,
which has been in session In this city
has adjourned after a most interesting
convention. State officers were reelected
and various committees appointed. The
committee on legislation made plausi-
BILE report, which was adopted. The
paper asserts that the Alliance Is now
beginning to realize that the salvation Of
the ,colored man rests not in either Of
the old political parties, and that he Is
no longer a slave to them. The report
continues In this vein: "We are uniting
to protect ourselves and wives and child
rem, and to build up enterprises among
ourselves, and thus free the toillng
masses Of our race from the deadly fangs
Of monopolles, rings and trust companies.
Furthermore, we cannot as an organize
ton, act with any party that will net ac-
dord to US the rights and privileges
guaranteed by the articles Of agreement
drawn up and adopted by the Ccala con-
vention."

great revolt of the people, which being fo-
Cused in the organization of the Peoples
party, can not be stayed or turned aside by
any puerile, superficial discusa of non
vital questions. The fusilade between Dem
oCraCy and Republicanism over the tariff is
but sham battle, the purpose of which is
to engage attention and arouse partisan
prejudice, thus distracting thought from
adequate remedies and thorough measures
of relief to the people.
At the great farmer picnic in the after
noon Major Mckinley stated that the pro-
teCtive tariff built up home industries and
thus built up better market for the farm
ers' produce. He said if factories, shops
and mills were not upheld by the protective
tariff that the men now employed in them
would be forced to 60 into the farming
business, and instead of being consumers
they would become competitors. Appeal
ing to his audience the major said: "Now
do you not know that it is to your interest
as farmers to have factory built up close
w yOuH lhIu1g
Mrs. Diggs dismissed this profound solu-
ton of present difficulties with the laconic
reply that being close neighbor to the fac
tory had not brought superabundant pros
perity to the New England farmer.
Major Mckinley declared that free coin
age Of silver would drive gold from this
country and that in consequence two kinds
of money would be created; the bondholder
would have to be paid in gold and the PEN
Sions to the soldiers who saved the nation
would have to be paid in deprecated cur
rency.
Mrs. Diggs' reply to this was extremely
rich. She reviewed the history of finance
and showed that the party of Major Mo
Kinley long ago made the discrimination
between the bondholder and the boys in
blue, and by the very act of making the in
terest on bonds and the payment of import
duties payable in gold, had made two kinds
OF money and paidthe soldier in deprecated
currency.
Throughout the entire two hours review
of Major McKinley's speech the audience
listened with breathless attention. The
novel method of appealing purely TO reason
and common sense, instead of to partisan
prejudice, had its effect, and many persons
expressed their intention of giving further
study and active support TO the Peoples
movement. az

MAJOR M'KINLEY VS.. MRS. DIGGS.
The following from the PlOlV and
Hammer of Tifin, Ohio, shows that our
little associate editor with other well
known Ksnsans, are participating in the
grand scalping act in the Buckeye state:
The Republicans of Richland county took
advantage of Major MCKinley'S attendance
at the farmers institute picnic near Shelby
and arranged a meeting for him at the
opera house on the same evening. The
Peoples party men were equally alert, and
secured Mrs. Anna L. Diggs of Kansas, to
reply to the Major on the following even
ing.
Every possible effort was made by the
Republican managers to work up an en-
thusiastio demonstration. The band played,
the men hurrahed and the regulation num-
ber Of prominent citizens were flattered by
an invitation to take seats on the stage with
the distinguished SON Of Ohio.
The distinguished SON was duly intro
duced and paid his audience the regulation
campaign compliments. "I see before me-"
said Major Mckinley "a well dressed, well
fed audience, who would never know they
were not in a prosperous condition unless
some quack doctor in the pay of the Demo
cratic party came and told them so."
After having impaired TO his audience a
comfortable sense Of their prosperity, the
Major proceeded TO discuss the issues be-
tween the ''two great parties" these being,
he said, free coinage Of silver and the tariff.
Mrs. Diggs was present and took notes.
The following evening an audience quite as
large greeted the speaker for the Peoples
party. There was no band music, no cam
paign cheers. The meeting was opened by
an earnest prayer by q resident minister
and every bit of the applause, which was
frequent and hearty during the evening,
was won from the audience by reason of the
force telling points made By the speakers
review Of Major McKinley's address.
Mrs. Diggs took the position that neither
Of the questions discussed by the major as
the sole issues between the Democratic and
Republican parties were of vital impor-
tance; neither free coinage or tariff are ade-
Quate to solve the great problems before the
American people today. She said that the
