Farmers Alliance and Presi-
cent Harrison.

The national council, Farmers
Alliance, drafted paper recon-
mending Mr. Duncan, of South
Carolina, for the office Of interstate
railroad commissioner. Mr.. Polk
was instructed to present the paper
to President Harrison. Mr.. Polk,
in complying with instructions, was
treated with discourtesy by the
president. The reason for the dis
courtesy is not given. Mr.. Harri-
son may think that the farmers
Alliance has no right to recon-
mend or petition. Or it may be
that the farmers organization is an
Objectionable body. Possibly Mr..
Harrison does not like Mr.. Polk ;
bat the probable reason is the name
of the gentleman selected by the
national council. None Of the
Duncans have ever been president;
not even senator or general. If
the council had selected such
nobleman as Mosby, the hero Of a
hundred masacres of Union soldiers,
or great general like Chalmers, of
Fort Pillow fame, or even such a
fine old patrician name as Davis,
then the council would have been,in
the person of it's president, received
with smiles and Scotch whisky.

WHEN the complete election re-
turns from Kansas showed that the
Peoples party has cast over $4,000
votes, or more than 5000 more votes
than it cesu for governor last year,
the Associated Press Immediately
sent out disparch that the Peoples
parto had cast lib, 900 votes out Of
a total 100000. Several reform pa
pers are using, editorially, the fig
ures contained in that dispatch.
Now they ought to know better
than to be thus deceived There
were but 275,O0 votes cast in the
state. Subtract from this $4,000
Peoples party votes, and it leaves
but 1852, 900 votes for the Democratic
and Republican fusionists. Allow
the Democrats the number of votes
they cast last year tor governor
SIS, 000-and it leaves the Republic
ans with but 1O7, 900 votes, or 5000
behind the Peoples party.--Cincin-
natl Herald.

Now it appears to me that this
covers the whole ground. Plenty
of money to do the business Of the
country to-day-and scarcity next
week-isn't in the contract; but
sufficient volume to do business
with, every day in the year. Hence
there could be no contraction Of the
currency.
Now our sub-treasury plan, as
worded, may be open to honest
criticism, and there might possibly
be better plan adopted to give the
farmers chance, but as there has
been no better plan advanced as
yet, nothing but objections, l think
it is high time that the enemies of
the sub-treasury either give us
something better, or just shut up.
1t is not class legislation, taking
our platform as whole-but means
just what it says-equal rights to
all, special privileges to none.

THE men who were arrested re-
Gently in Chicago, at the time
Greifs Hall was broken into, were
all fined, although the charge
against them, of disorderly conduct,
was not proven. Large meetings
of laboring people have since been
held, and men have spoken at the
meetings who spoke the words of
soberness. A Mr.. Morgan, while
admitting the grievances of labor
ing people, warned them against
violence, or excess Of any kind.
He also took occasion to remind
his audience that their leaders were
oftimes in the pay of rich scoun-
drels, and that these so-called
leaders were wrecking their cause.
Mr.. Morgan also said that the law
was all against them, and had been
purposely enacted to silence protest
and crush labor organizations.
Where is our boosted land OF the
free, when in the state that gave
Lincoln to the world, the laws are
made with view to crushing lib
erty?

We are in receipt of the first
number of the Cincinnati Herald
whose editor is M. w. Wilkins, late
of the Nonconformist. The Herald
is a marvel of topographic neatness,
and the fact that Wilkins is it's edit
or is sufficient evidence that it is a
shoulder-hitter. Long may it live
to herald the truth to the people.

THE first bill introduced by Sen
ator PETER was in the interest of the
old soldier-to place safeguards
about him and remove the leeches
blood-suckers that are eating up a
large share of his pension. The
first bill (this SESSION. introduced
by Senator Plumb was for the re-
moval of the body of Gen. Grant.
Which of the two bills, think you,
would be of more benefit to the SOL
der, or to the people?

EDITOR AG1TAToR | have been
reading the Kroniele's reply to Mr..
j. NJ. Alexander's sub-treasury ar
ticle in a previous issue of the
Kronicle, and will beg leave to re-
mark that | think the objections
given by the Kronicle to Mr., Alex
ander's article are wide of the
mark.
The Kronicle says that in Kincaid
and Rich township, there are about
twenty stock feeders, who buy
their corn from their neighbor farm
ers, as soon as it is ready to market;
or in other words, the poor farmers
who are "hard up" and obliged to
sell in order to get little ready
money, haul their corn out of their
fields direct to these feeders, stock
yards at from twenty-five to thirty
cents per bushel, and if tho farmers
get the sub-treasury, they will store
their corn there, collect eighty per
cent. of its value, direct from the
government, and be thus enabled to
hold their corn for an increased
price. And the Kronicle says if
the farmers are allowed tosdo that,
the cattle feeders will have to pay
more for corn; and with pardonable
simplicity also says, how long
could they stand that, with the
sub-treasury on one hand, and the
beef combine on the other? Now
the Kronicle don't seem to take
into consideration how long the
farmers have been selling below
cost of production, but appears to
be willing that the farmers should
get as little as possible, SO long as
the cattle feeders come out on top
Now here are hundreds of thou
sands of farmers who are so poor
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1891-12-15

the field { as the Kronicle admits) t.
these feeders, and are obliged t.
take just what they may offer, il
order that these poor ~ Cattle
kings throughout the country may
realize big profit on their cattl,
when they sell in the spring. Oh
what an outrage on the cattle feed
ers we farmers are trying to perpe
trate. Now there is just this differ
ence between the. farmers plan anC
the cattle feeders plan: The farm
ers want to own their corn-cribs anC
hold their corn till prices justify 8
sale. The cattle men want our corr
now, at low price, and deposited
in their cribs (cattle and hogs) sc
they can hold it for market. The
only question is, the ownership OF
the cribs, and l think this article OF
the Kronicle's gives their entire OBJ
jections away.
Now one word in regard to the
beef combine that the Kronicle is
so much afraid of. If our demands
become law, there will be no beef
combine, or any other combine, and
cattle men will have the same
chance to put price on their stock
as farmers will on their produce,
and if they have to pay more for
corn, they will get an increased
value for their stock. The COM
bines, syndicates, trusts and gamb-
lers in the different commodities
being wiped out, the law of supply
and demand will govern the market,
instead Of the plunderers of the ne
cessities of life, and if we get more
money in circulation, the wage
worker the mechanic and laborer)
will receive more for their work,
and the people will be better off all
around.
Now in regard to the circulating
medium, the Kronicle admits that if
our circulation was double, prices
would 60 up, and according to this
showing, admits that the contrac-
ton of our currency and the search
to of money is the root of the
whole evil. The Kronicle says that
the amount of money in circulation,
together with the demand for an
article, governs the whole price.
Now who said it didn't? And just
here is where all the trouble is. A
limited amount of money in circu-
Iation, with the grain gamblers reg
ulating the law of supply and de-
mand, or in other words, saying
Just what this supply and demand
shall be, is what we are fighting.
Now then, what does our plat
form say in regard to money?
