ASIDE from the political heresies
which the Alliance is trying to foist
upon the country, the Alliance is ex-
ercising an influence for evil in other
ways. A large majority of the Al
lance lecturers" are men whose
minds run in very narrow grooves,
who have small conception of the
nobility and independence which
should characterize the real farmer,
and whose chief talent is a glib
tongue and windy pair Of lungs.
Their lectures" for the most part are
simply wordy denominations of the
old parties, and appeals to the preiu-
dices of the more ignorant classes.
Instead of tendency to instruct and
elevate these classes, seeds of discord
are sown, and a spirit of agrarianism
and socialism is engendered. The
Alliance has fallen far of its organic
promises. Had its first declaration of
principles been carried out in proper
spirit, it might have been an instru-
ment of great good to the agricultural
classes, but the order rapidly degen-
Grated into a secret political organi-
zation. 1t can point to few, if any,
instances where it has made better
farmers out of its members, but it has
made third-rate politicians out of
many men who might have been
good farmers had the educational
line ofwork proposed by the Alliance
been pursued. The Alliance is cul-
tivating discord and dissatisfaction
in the ranks of the farmers, and has
utterly failed to better their condition
in the smallest particular. An Or
ganization with such a record de-
serves only the censure of every good
citizen.

fact can constitute deceptive argu>
ment. We know that our free coin
age friends hold that the fiat of the
Government would put silver on a
parity with gold, and give it an in
trinsic value which it does not now
possess. We takeno such rosy views
of the powers of our Government, we
do not believe the stamp of the Cow

free coinage of silver will give us two

CHIEF Justice Peter Turney has
written a letter to the Nashville
American in which he shows that
the work of the Tennessee Supreme
Court is rapidly increasing beyond
the capacity Of the bench to handle
it. BY very long and hard labor the
court has kept the dockets cleared for
the last few years, but Judge Turney
says it will be impossible to do so in
future with the rapid increase in
number of cases. He urges that
something be done to keep the work
of the court from getting far behind.
THE Legislature having failed to
do anything with the lease system or
penitentiary question, the courts are
now to have chance at the matter.
While the Legislature was in session,
Acknowledgement Pickle rendered an
opinion, holding that the convicts
could not be suh-leased. The miners
at Briceville have now instituted
proceedings in the Knox County
Criminal Court to test the legality OF
the matter, and the miners have
again magnanimously agreed to sus-
pend hostilities in that region until
the suit is settled.
