Topeka, Kan, Advocate Gen.
Weaver, who has been with Jerry
Simpson marching through Geor-
gia," has this to say respecting the
prospects OF the. new party in that
state:
"We had heard something of a
third party" before going to Geor-
gia, but we failed to find either a
second or third party. Georgia is
solid for the Ocala platform without
the crossing of or the dotting Of
an i. There are just about enough
old bourbons left to edit the moss
back newspapers and grumble at
the Alliance for "breaking up the
Democratic party" Nobody pays
any attention to them and they are
set down as back numbers. Georgia
is as reliable as Kansas or Nebraska,
and the Alliance brethren are a host
within themselves. They will lead
the van in 1892. Now brethren OF
the northwest, wake up, or you will
lose your laurels. Georgia is ahead
Of you and beckons you forward.
She comes stripped Of the last YES
tige Of sectionalism and holds out
her hand and bids you take it in
fraternity and love. Press forward
and grasp her hand and together
rescue this country from the grasp
OF the cOnfederated mOnOpOlies.

Sentinel, Chicago: Col. Bob Inger

Sentinel, Chicago: Col. Bob Inger-
soil says the country has made
rapid progress since the war. So it
has, Bob. 1t has made rapid pro-
gress-in getting into the hands OF
the few. So much so that one man
has the power to bankrupt and
disrupt the Republic. The workers,
the producers OF all wealth, who
have actually made all the progress,
have nothing to show for it and are
tax-ridden, monopoly-ridden and
mortgage-cursed. Bob tells the truth
once in a while-that is, so far as he
goes, but he is not particular in tell
ing all the truth at all times.
Perhaps the most prominent char
acteristic OF Ingersoll is his singular
skill in mixing truth and falsehood,
philosophy and sophistry, in such
manner as to render their analysis
and separation well nigh impossible
and their effect vicious.

Think OF These Facts.

Some things to be borne in mind
we respectfully suggest, are enumer.
ated and specified below:
1. The railroads of this country
are collecting $5OO,OOO,OOO each
year on fictitious bonds and stocks
2. The Western Union Telegraph
Company is demanding and collec
ting high dividends on $42,OOO,OOC
of admittedly watered stock.
3. Ii the railroads were confined
to 8 per cent. dividends on the cost
of construction, one-half the present
passenger and freight tolls woulG
pay such dividends and all running
expenses.
4. The general government coul6
duplicated the Westeran Union lines
for one-fourth the amount on which
it now pays dividends.
5. VIM. L. Scott, the great Goa
baron, says that the proper way O.
controlling labor is to ''make the
laborer eat to-day what he can carr
tomorrow" The New York Tri
bune says that the "small farmers
must sell their farms to large land
owners and become tenant farmers

Another Scab Convention.

Topeka, Kan, Advocate S.
McAllister, President U. S. Halls
associate at the great anti-sub- treas
ury convention o. thirty seven Texas
Democrats who recently assembled
at Fort Worth, has called a similar
convention in Mississippi, which will
probably assume about the same
magnitude as it's Lone Star prede-
cessor. McAllister is an uncom-
promising Democrat, and he knows
that his party will never indorse the
Alliance demands. Knowing as he
does that the growth OF the Alliance
means the disruption OF his party, he
will neglect no means, however I'M
scrupulous. to disrupt the Alliance
This is his aim, and whatever he
does will be intended for that pur-
pose.

Five good reasons why the sub
treasury plan should be established
1. Because it destroys the "power
of money to Cypress. No corner
can be made on money when the
volume is flexible.
2. Because it will prevent a gener-
al depression in prices during the
season in which the farmer in a seller.
3. Because it bases money on the
most potential form OF wealth in
stead OF basing it, as the govern
ment now does, on the representa-
tive of debt.
4. Because it will benefit all class
es alike and break up class privileges.
5. Because it's sole object is to in
crease the money in circulation when
there is an increased demand for it's
use. And by increasing the volume
to correspond to increased demand
prices will not be contracted. Ware.

By total disregard of conscientious
ness and the fundamental principles of
justice, the Democrats in the Senate
succeeded in playing . sharp political
trick on the Republicans and secured
two seats IN the Senate. Had the DEM
ocracy been satisfied with that, the
people might possibly have overlooked
the larceny. But Secretary Hosford,
who was engineering the party's inter-
ests IN the absence of Campsu. had TO
advertise his cuteness by getting an en-
dorsement of it into the Democratic
platform. The convention, mad with
the delirium of success, adopted the
endorsement and asked the people to
elect q Justice of the Supreme Court
upon platform of injustice, dishon-
esty ana villainy. This was too much
for the people to stand and they repudi-
ated the entire gang. "Whom the gods
would destroy, they first make mad"
