Eastern cemeterv.


On the first day of last September, the
money for the purpose of having survey
and plan made Of the Eastern Cemetery, the
Oldest burial place in the city. TE
Under the direction of Mr.. William S.
Edwards, first assistant city engineer, the
work has been prosecuted to completion.
Every tomb and every grave has been accu-
rately plotted upon fplan or map of the
cemetery, and this being divided into sec
lions and ranges, 1t is possible at once to To-
cate the last resting place Of every person
buried In said cemetery If there is stone
still standing upon which there is legible
inscription. To give some idea of the labor
bestowed upon this work by Mr.. Edwards,
1t is only necessary to say that the list Of
names Of those buried In the cemetery num-
beers 4,085. These are arranged alphabetical
ly, so that a simple inspection will tell, IL a
name Is found. In what section, range and
number the grave or tomb is. The sections
are all arranged also In regular order, from
A to L, so that If the section and range is
known one can easily ascertain If any me-
mortal is still standing. Unfortunately the
work Of destruction has been going on for
many years, and grave-stones which have
fallen, instead of being carefully replaced
have been carted off and deposited in the
rubbish heaps.
The map of the cemetery, made by Mr..
Edwards, is marvel of accurate and palms.
taking work. Every tomb and grave is To-
Gated by careful measurements. and distinct
ly marked. Great credit Is due to him for
the patience and fidelity which he has
shown in the undertaking.

Mr.. Plumb said "Mr. President, with

which induces me to favor the free coinage
of silver, if there were seriously made here
a proposition to cut loose from both gold
and silver, 80 far at least, as our domestic
currency is concerned, giving TO tho people

be fixed by its volume, I should unhesitRt-

FRATERNITY AND UNITY.
Kansas City, Mo.

The North Carolina State Farmers Alliance,
Now in Session Assembled, to the Brethren
of the North and Northwest.
From the Progressive Farmer.
GREETING: Having turned our backs
upon the issues Of the dead past, we
henceforth look resolutely, earnestly and
hopefully to the future, determined upon
the discussion and settlement Of living
Issues involving the rights, liberty and
prosperity Of the people. We clasp your
hands, brethren, hands fraternally and
patriotically extended to us, and standing
boldly and firmly upon the Ocala de-
mands, we will move unitedly and hope
fully to the rescue OF our country from
the hands OF the spoiler, that we may re-
store the government to the people for
whose sole good it was instituted and TO
whom it belongs.
The above resolutions were unanimous
ly adopted by the North Carolina State
Alliance at its recent meeting at More
head. That body was composed Of rep

reeentative North CarollnianH, chosen by
the members Of our order from every
county in the state. Similar expressions
were given out by each Of the State ALI
ances Of the south. All Of these adopted
similar resolutions In 1890. And herein
lies the hope and strength Of our order.
Fraternity and unity between the great
industrial elements Of the country, with
out regard to sectional differences or di-
visions, is the sheet anchor Of our safety,
not only as an organization, but as peo-
pie.
Upon this rock Of fraternity we must
build. We can never cure the evils
which aflllOt and oppress US by sectional
organizations. The patriotic, reasoning,
thinking men Of the country realize this
important truth. The Southern State AL
llances feel and know Its force, hence
these declarations. The Alliance people
Of the Northern State Alliances feel and
know it's force, hence these declarations.
The Alliance people Of the northern states
are equally impressed with it and hence
they meet us fully half way In this great
and patriotic work, and heartily recipro-
cate our advances.
Much concern ls manifested by GER
tain class Of partisan papers In the south
at the appearance in our midst Of certain
Alliance representatives Of our northern
brethren. Much indlscreet, not TO say
unjust, criticism has been INDUCED, and
In some instances gross misrepresenta-
tions Of these brethren has appeared in
their columns. II has been charged that
they came here at the instance Of certain
national officials. The above resolution
is sufficient warrant for the action of our
state authorities in inviting them here.
We are glad they came. We are proud
OF the kindly and frsternal reception so
cordially extended to them by our peo-
pie. We hope they will continue 10
come, and In increased numbers. II will
do US all good. 1t is significant that .
certain class Of partisan papers in the
north are adopting the same mode Of
warfare upon our southern brethren who
visit that section and preach the gospel
of peace and reconciliation. We say to
all such papers quit your fears, and cease
your unjust and needless criticisms, for
you cannot stop or prevent it. The ALI
ance Of North Carolina has the right to
invite northern speakers here-the ALI
ance Of the north has the right to in
vite southern speakers there, and you
cannot prevent it by your officious inter
ference. You give more attention toyour
own business: and you will do and feel
better.

COMMON SENSE AND PARTIsANsHIP.
To the Editor Of THE ADVOCATE.

To the Editor Of THE ADVOCATE.
From the Kansas City Journal Of
October "a, l clip the following terse,
lucid and logical editorial. This editorial
occupied a position In the adjoining
column to the one containing an eulogis-
tic panegyric of Senator Plumb and his
absurd and nonsensical theories ad-
vsnced by him for campaign purposes
and which are 80 strangely at variance
with his honest convictions, as so ad-
mirably expressed in the United States
Senate during the debate over the free
coinage bill. The Journal says:
MONEY.
The lecture of Professor Blackmar on
money was the first Of the Kansas City
university course. The paper was of course
able, but it was also the closet, the college,
the teachers theory of money. Itwas not
the philosophical theory, and is contrary to
the practical experience Of the world. These
gold advocates never get the idea that q
gold currency can be inflated as well as a
paper one. Gold imitation or contraction
lies in the supply of the mines. California
and Australia inflated the currency to an
extent greater than greenbacks did during
the war. The only reason our book fnan-
ciers do not see it, is that they make gold
the measure of other ourrency-just as they
are trying to make it act on silver. Paper
money as long as it is based on gold is sum
certain. and variable" Of course just be-
cause gold is uncertain and variable. AS
all the world uses gold, it is internationally
exchangeable, but it is the '1egal" recogni-
tion that holds it to a nominal value as to
quantity. Were this legal recognition-this
fat character, if you please absent, gold
would be in practice really what it is in fact,
a commodity like iron or copper--its pur-
chasing power governed by its supply. That
is what it is really, and so many grains is
only legal measure of dollar, but does
not regulate its power of purchase, only its
power or convenience in paying. This fact
as to money has yet to find its place in
theories-then men won't have TO get il all
by experience.
Never has there been exhibited more
striking instance of the truthfulness Of
the statement made by prominent
journalist, when at a recent banquet
given to prominent members Of the press,
he was urged to respond to the toast,
1.-THE Independent Press" He said that
there was no independent PRESS" and
that he and his hearers knew that both
he and they received good salaries for
suppressing the truth, and that they
we're In fact intellectual prostitutes"
The editorial above quoted, Is sad, de-
spairing wall from the depths Of parti-
san grave, and virtually comedies the
correctness Of the philosophy, the sound
ness Of the logic and the business of the
demands of the Peoples party. Waging
an unscrupulous and bitter partisan war

against the Alliance and its principles;
It's leaders and their views; being com
pelled and constrained to wage such war
by the imperious dictatlon of unscrupu-
lous and unpatriotic partisanship; the
Kansas City Journal has come to be re-
garded as the mouthplece of all that is
base and treacherous in partisan politics.
And yet In almost each successive issue
of this same Journal, one finds editorials
evidently written with the anxious pur-
pose of assuring the more intelligent Of
its readers that the editor-in-chief is not
such prejudiced partisan, nor such an
idiotic ignoramus as the general tenor Of
the paper would seem to make it appear
that he was. Verify "politlcs makes
strange bedfellows," and partisan service
Is, as rule, simply self qualification.
Now there Is Senator Plumb, who is
charging about over the state Of Kansas,
fretting and fuming and giving vent to
senseless rawlings. In this he is simply
personating the partisan politician. But
sometimes Mr.. Plumb poses as a states
man and utters his honest sentiments In
the council hall of the nation. Upon
such occasions he stultlfes his partisan
record and eats his own words uttered
for political advantage. Hereinbelow
will be found in contrasting juxtaposl-
ton choice selections of Mr.. Plumb's
utterances as q statesman and as parti-
san politician.
Senator Plumb In his speech at Olathe,
Kan, October 23, 1891:
He showed that PETER, Otis, Davis and
others, all had a different scheme to make
more money, and every scheme was more
absurd than the other. It would be idle for
a person to think that if one borrowed
money from the government that all would
not have to. The majority, he said, fixed
the rules of the government and we are the
government, then if we borrow from the
government we borrow from ourselves, and
everyone would cay when he got his, 81
want to vote to stop it,"
We are told this is to be limited to the
person who has land. Is this monopoly?
Is the engineer like the one yesterday who
sacrificed his life to get any2 No! Oh, you
see that the person who has nothing is to
have nothing still. know that the Ameri-
can people are not in favor of reputation,
and when you take away the faith, the con-
idence that one. man has in another, by
paying debts with money that is worth less
than we agreed to pay them with, the whole
fabric of the nation is lost and life will not
be worth living.
We want money with all the qualifications
that make it good-something we can lay
up for SON and daughter alike, each, dollar
for dollar. Il is said that money is loaned
TO national banks. This was never true.
The facts themselves disprove all the state
ments that money is loaned TO national
banks. never could understand why, If
