OUR FARMERs.
Last year the farmers of this country
produced six thousand millions of wealth
They not only fed the people and furnished
to large extent the raw material for otbel
ha1o ,ressr1od tho balance of trade. Had
it not been for these expectations the
country long since would have been drain
ed of it's precious metals, which would have
gone abroad to pay the interest in gold to
the foreign bondholder. From the adoption
of the Federal Constitution in 1889 we have
raised and exported nearly 80 per cent. OF
l.,
sweat of our brows has gone to fatten and
fertilize the fields of special classes. Is it
any wonder that we should be dissatisfied
and discontented when under the fostering
care of government we see millioDaires
spripping up around us swho neither toll
nor spin," while their equipages shine like
meteors and their palaces rise like ex-
halations?
The Alliance is q conservative body of
men: it makes no war on the rich nor the
rights of property; it recognizes the fact
that industry, sobriety, economy, and good
sepse are qualities essential to success in
life. It further recognizes the fact that
there will always be rich meu-ssthe poor
We always have with you''-and they are
not unmindful of the divine command
ssthat to him that hath shall be given"
sntedates the stone ia blets of Sinai
WHO MADE THIS COUNTRY ahEAT'
No people have worked harder, lived
poorer, and made greater sacrifices and suf.

Time and again in our poverty and dis

ID; we have asked them for bread and they
lave given us a stone; for fish and they
,een answered by heavy and burdensome
he demonstration of silver tho money of
,ur fathers-and in mockery, with their
purses filed with gold, tell us the country
reeds no more money! Thanking God they
ire not as these poor publicans and arrogat-
ing to themselves superior know ledge they
,all us lunatics-ignorant of finance, crying
or cheap money, and like the boy in tho
Heart of Midlothian, showing aside the gold
.uineas and asking for the bright money!
