ceremoniOus manner in which il was
found eEpedient TO cut short Mr.,
Livingston's address at the Ingalls,
caucus, but il is willing 10 make use
OF such Of his sayings as can be made
serVicable in reAecting upon the char
acter Of the Alliance in Kansas, and
its relations to the National organiza-
tion. There is not the least doubt in
the mind Of any Kansas Alliance man
who has met Mr.. Livingston that he
has been sent here as an Ingalls,
striker. He has all the characteristic
ear marks, and his conduct since his
arrival in this city will admit Of no
other Interpretation Of his mission. We
know nothing OF this mans character
or standing at home, but this much
we can say: If the New York State
Alliance has any use for him, we
would advise the brethren of that
state TO recall him as soon as possible.
We have no use for him in Kansas.
A president OF a state alliance who
will come all the way from New York
for the purpose Of lending his aid TO
the emissaries Of monopoly in their
efforts TO defeat the will OF Che peo-
pie as Enthusiastically expressed at the
ballot box, and secure the return to the
United States senate Of a man whose
whole influence and every vote have
been given in the interest Of corpora
tions and monopolies during all the
years Of his Senatorial career, GER
tainly needs TO be converted, born
again and baptlsed in the true faith
before he can be accepted by our
people ss friend Of the farmers and
laboring men Of this country. He
says he is going from here TO Cali
fornia. We.spprehend that there, as
here, he will find his most congenial
associates among the boodlers Of the
old parties. He is evidently at home
in such company, and is perfectly
familiar with their methods. He is a
wolf in sleeps clothing. Look out
FOR him.

Il. H. Snow, Of the Ottawa Journal,
was elected state printer on the Goth
inst. on the first ballot, and the man
ner in which the solid vote of the
Peoples party Representatives was
cast for him in the joint convention
was very disCOursging TO the Ingalls,
crowd. The Senate seemed some
what disgusted with the proceedings,
and was anxious 10 return to it's own
chamber as soon as the ballot was
completed. The question twill they
stickp seemed to be answered for the
time being.

THE ORIGIN OF THE FARMERS ALLIANCE.
One Of the chief arguments ~ Of
the opposition press during our re-
cent campaign, and during the pres
ent Senatorial contest has been that
the Kansas Alliance is Of southern
origin, and is intended to promote
distinCtively, southern ideas and
southern policies A continuous
labored effort has been made TO con-
vey the idea that our Kansas MEM
bership has gone over body and soul
to the southern democracy. We hope
to be able, after all the excitement Of
State and Senatorial elections is
over to give some history upon this
subject that will open the eyes Of the
people and knock the pins from un-
der the pet theories of the Kansas
Republican press.

NEEDED LEGISLATION.

see our Representatives make a
speedy end Of every question brought
before the House to consume time
and prevent such Legislation as the
people demand and have a right to
expect from the Representatives who
were elected on the 4th of November
last. There are a few measures only
that have been thus demanded.
Among these we may note at this
time the following:
The people expect some Legislation
that will aid them in saving the
homes that are being Wrested from
them by the foreclosure Of the mort
gage
They expect a reasonable interest
law, with adequate penalties for it's
violation.
They expect a reduction Of certain
salaries and fees.
They expect Che passage Of the Aus
tralian ballot law, with all necessary
safeguards to secure honest elections.
They expect some legislation in re-
spect to the printing and furnishing
Of school books by the state.
There are undoubtedly other inn
portant matters that will claim the
attention Of our Representatives, but
these are essentials. These are ques-
tiOns that the people imperitively de-
mand shall receive attention.
It is perfectly apparent TO any
close observer Of tho proceedings up
10 this time chat there is a disposition
on the part Of a few men to force
questions OF minor Importance before
the Legislature, and by skillful par
liamentary tactics, 80 manipulate
them ss to consume time to the ex-
Clusion Of those questions which it is
the duty Of the Representatives of
the Peoples party TO consider. This
should not be tolerated for moment |
While we would accord every legiti-
mate privilege to the minority in the
House, this minority should not be
granted exclusive rights. II Is the
duty Of the majority, who will be
held responsible for the work Of this
session OF the House, to determine the
questions that shall first receive at
tention, and we expect that they will
do 80 as soon as the Senatorial cleo
tion is out Of the way, and our Rep
resentStives get down to hard legis-
lative work. We do not write to Criti-
else, for, rs we have stated before, no
work Of any consequence could reas-
onably be expected before the cleo
tiOn Of state printer and United States
Senator. What we sayis simply sug-
gestive and We hope to SEQ the peoples
make areCord at this
session Of which we may all be proud.
Give us the most important legislS-
tiOn first and then il any time is left
Of the session, minor matters may be
attended to.
