INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 1.-THE Alliance
convention has convened here. In his
annual address delivered il the evening
President Polk began by calling atten-
ton to the grave responsibility which
rest upon the members Of the supreme
council and predicting glorious results
if the power of the Alliance was wisely
directed. The speaker after presenting
an argument showing discrimination
against the agricultural classes, pro-
ceeded to state their demands, saying:
"We demand governmental control OF
transportation; we demand the retent-
ion of our public domain for the use of
our own people; we demand the pro-
hibition Of gambling in futures of agri-
cultural and mechanical products; we
demand the free coinage of silver; we
demand that no class or interest shall
be taxed to build up any other class or
interest; we demand the election OF
United States senators by the direct
vote of the people; we demand a grad
uated tax on incomes; but
more important than all these,
broader and deeper than all
these, and first Of all these, is the
transcendently paramount demand that
our national bank system be abolished,
and that the peoples money shall be is

disposed Of mu:h business of a routine
character. A great number of resolu-
tions proposing constitutional and plat
form changes were referred to different
committees. The executive COMMITTEES
of the Alliance, composed of Macune of
Texas, Wardall of South Dakota and
Tillman of Tennessee, reported upon
the condition of the order, which was
found highly gratifying. The increased
demand during the past year for reform
literature was q matter Of important
consideration by the council, which
ought to provide for the wider dissem-
nation of reform literature. Alonzo
Wardall, of South Dakota, was re-
elected q member af the executive COM
mittee for three years, and M. A. Davy,
Of Kentucky, a member of the e1ecu-
tive committee. A committee from the
National Harnessmakers' union asked
the council to indorse the label of the
union and buy only union made goods.
The anti-sub-treasury people, after
issuing a call for a convention at Mem
phis, Dec. 10, published a two-column
card charging Maeune with wrecking
the Texas Alliance exchange and max
ing big money thereby, and with trying
to sell out the Alliance to the old polit-
ical parties. Most of these charges were
made at the Ocala meeting.
Saturdays Doings.
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 81. The committee
on platform reported the Ocala platform
and was approved with but two changes
and these were simply in the wording of
the sub-treasury plank. Where that sec
ton now read, sshall loan money" upon
imperishable farm products, it is
changed to 'sshall issue money" and
where it reads mot more than 2 per
cent. interest" the last word is changed
to s'tax." The report of the committee
was received with cheers. At 10 o'clock
a. m. General Lecturer G.. A. Wright,
of the knights of Labor, constituting a
committee to extend fraternal greetings
to the Alliance, was admitted to the
council. His specific mission, how
ever, was to urge upon the
Alliance the need of close bonds and the
establishment of practical reform CO.
operation with the common purposes Of
industrial reform as an end. The attack
Of w. S. McAllister, who is pursuing
G. w. Macune relentlessly, was ex-
pected to eliminate in a collision be.
tween the men, but 80 far has been
avoided. Macune says he will utterly
ignore MpAllisters charges, they having
been declared untrue by a committee at
the Ocala meeting. The first official
boycott ever established by the Farm
ers' Alliance was declared during the
morning.

[CONTINUED FROM OUR LAST ISSUE.
The ruling Industrial system, 10y max.
ing indispensable the assem- blage of
masses of workers at one point, gives the
first impulse to the removal of the evil
itself has created. As man first sees his
own features in the mirror, so the
laborer first awakens to a full apprecja
ton of his pitiable situation ~hen, in
the misery of masses Of his com rades in
suffering the image of his own lot stares
him in the face. Sharing the life Of his
companions in toll, men placed like HIM
self and equally oppressed, in constant
contact and Interchange of thou ght with
them, working together for reciprocal
support and the common defense against
+, common danger, there arises class con
seriousness which sustains and elevates
the individual and inspires the masses
to battle for their social rights 1t is a
strange fate which DEGREES that Capitalist
production Itself shall assemble and drill

Kingsale and Lord Forester. says the Philadel-

has the curious prerogative of remaining COW

namely, the master of Trinity College, Cam

been narrated:
A superstition prevails concerning the neces-

visited Cambridge University, the then we'll

Old War Enemies Clasp bands.

George T. Ulmer. an actor, who is playing in
the smaller towns of the state. says the San
Francisco Chronicle, was a soldier in the North
ern army during the war of secession. At the
battle Of Lookout Mountain he was left in COM
mand of heavy field-piece. A party of con-
federates made an attack and to defend him
self at close range Ulmer drew his pistol and
shot one of the rebels three times, wounding him
severely.
On Monday Ulmer came to this city from
Stockton to look after some show printing for
his company at the printing house of Francis,
Valentine & Co., on Sansome street. While
there he stepped into the engraving department
to examine stock Of wood cuts. Suddenly he
heard some one exclaim:
"My Godl There's the man who shot me!''
Ulmer turned like flash and found himself
face to face with the confederate soldier whom
he had shot at the famous battle twenty-eight
years ago. The men glared at each other, but
only for az instant. Then there was moisture
in their eyes, and George T. Ulmer, actor, and
William w. Garrison, engraver, clasped hands
Garrison has lived here for several years and is
still a sufferer from the pistol wound received
at the hands of Ulmer. Before leaving the
printing house Ulmer said to Garrison;
"Old man, from this date will give you one
half OF my army pension"

A Wonderful Poet.

In 1884 the present writer. then an editorial
writer for the Chicago Daily Neios, did his
work in the same room where Eugene Field
wrote those graceful verses and irresistibly
funny paragraphs which made the "Sharps
and Flats" column Of that journal so eagerly
sought for, says the AndtoStdn Magazine.
Both occupants of the room were frequently
subject to visits from acquaintance who
CHANGED to be in the city for the day, SO they
contrived a number of practical jokes intended
to increase the respect which some of these lay
brethren had for newspaper writers in general,
and for these two in particular.
One day an acquaintance of Mr.. Fields boy
hood, q tall. gangling- looking Missodrian, came
in and made himself known. After cordial
greetings and a few moments of conversation,
MIR. Field clapped his hand to his brow, as
sumed wild expression. and speaking sharply
to his roommate. as if he were an amanuensis,
said:
Take this poem down."
The amanuensis clare the deck of his desk
for sction, ard Mr.. Field began to dictate a
poem. 1t was beaut full little lyric upon
which he had devoted weeks of pain~taking

three times in the course Of the dictation and

ment, as, at the close of the dictatiOn, the
amanuensis read the charmingly finished poem,
and Mr., Field, in tone of command. said:

morrow morning. paper"
TIE next morning the MiSsourian proud OF
his acquaintance with so wonderful a man as
mr. Field had showed himself to be- read the
poem, and set out to tell everybody who would
listen how an inspired genius writes poetry.
