A "sCABo ALLIANCE CONVENTION.

From the Iowa Tribune.
A "scab" Alliance convention was held
In Fort Worth, Tex, last Friday and Sat
urday, under the management Of U. s.
Hall and other nominal Alliance men
and Democratic politicians who are max
ing desperate efforts to make the ALI
anCe tail to the Democratic kite. The
convention was not an Alliance cOnven-
tion, not being called by any Alliance Of
fetal having authority to do so. The
Industrial Educator, Of Fort Worth,
said of 1t last week:
The Democratic papers, led by the Ga
zette, are trying very hard to boom the
Demo-Alliance meeting in this city for the
10th and 11th. Thus far not reform pa
per nor an Alliance paper in Texas, so far
as we can find out, has favored the meeting
or printed the call. They regard it as abso-
lutely unauthoritative and uncalled for.
The Farmers World, that enemy in the AL
lance camp, of course joins with the other
plutocratic papers in leading their blind
followers into the last ditch. On the other
hand, SO far as we have learned from the
Alliances and the Alliance presa, they stand
solidly against the movement, regarding it
as an effort to disrupt the Alliance.
Such an effort was, Of course, hailed
with 10Y by the Democratic press, and
the Republican press as well, notwith-
standing it was wholly in the interest of
the Democracy.
But another convention was held In
Texas last week which we have not seen
mentioned by any Of our northern news
papers. 1t was the third annual conven-
ton of the Texas Federation of Labor,
an organization numbering many thou
sands of voters, which adopted plat
form Of principles in perfect harmony
with the Cincinnati platform, and pledged
It's political support only to that party
which honestly espouses the cause of Ia
Dor.

Lion Coffee.

Apropos Of the first appearance In
this issue of THE ADVOCATE of the
WOolson Spice company's advertisement,
we append below q clipping taken from
the Toledo Business World of July Is.
It would appear from this article that
the WoOlson Spice Company, far from
being 'sprlng chickens" are veterans In
the coffee roasting business.
The WoolsOn SPICE Company, of this city,
have decided to put up building to cost
$4,000 at the Worlds FAIR, TO give adequate
exhibition of "Lion" coffee and their kin
dred products. This course win be rem
dered necessary from the fact that the linn
tied space which the company would be
able to obtain in any of the government
buildings could only convey 10 the general
public very Imperfect conception Of their
mammoth enterprise.

ELL HACKNRY,S DIATRIBE.
70 the EdltOr OF TMR ADYOCATE:

~ buO EIuAJVA VI AllH ADFONAIBs
I noticed an item the other day to the
effect that W. p. Hackney was sick at
Msnitou. II Bill is sick, am sorry, for
l hope that he will live many years, gain
in strength and wisdom, and amuse him
self often in twisting the tail Of the
British bull and tearing asunder the jaws
Of the American Alliance! I do not
write this for the purpose of attacking
Mr.. Hackney's character, nor striking q
man when he is down, but for the pur-
pose of directing attention to the "argu-
ment" Hackney made In the Botkin
impeachment trial, and the remarkable
declarations he made to the high court
Of impeachment to influence them In
their final judgment And the judgment
Of seventeen members of that "high"
court, as 1t stands upon the record,
will for all time disgrace the pages of
our history; and those patrons who are
weary of the "song" will drop into dis
honored graves before they hear the last
of 1t. When the tyrannical leaders of
an $1,000 majority are dead and damned
politically defunct and execrated-I
will, If on earth at the time, join In the
universal pecan of praise for the deliver
ance Of the people from bondage no less
abject than that which held q race in
chains. But to the text. Bill Hackney
said in his argument" to the court of
impeachment:
~ submit to every Republican In this
House, and Democrat, too, II it Is not
trne that from start to finish this Is a
trial of the Republican party instead Of
Botkin?" (Vol. 2, page 198O.)
And seventeen Republican Senators
voted "the party" guilty, and sixteen Re-
publican Senators voted not guilty. And
thus was the grand old Republican party
of sunny Kansas indicated by a Republl-
can Senate! (VoL 2. page 1850
We read In the history of the ancient
nations how monarchs waded to their
thrones through blood, and how the mur-
muring peaasantry were robbed to crafty
the cupidity and savagery of the crown.
The patrons Of partisan press attempt
to laugh you to scorn il you dare to draw
parallel between the royal butchers Of
old and the partisan bullleS and bosses
of this day and their overt acts. But let
them laugh-the parallel is here upon
the very soil Of Kansas, and evidence of
it is in the Botkln trial, the murder of
Samuel N. Wood, and the adverse COM
ment of a partisan press.

session OF the Republic county Alliance
Had an interesting time. Hon. Johr
Davis, Of Junction City, and ex-COm-
nlander-ln-C Chief Of the G. A. r., Pau
Vandevoort, Of Lincoln, Nebraska, ad
dressed the people Of Belleville during
the session and were enthusiastically re,
ceived. Yes, the Alliance and the third
party are all going to pieces-so much &C
that the old party bosses have completely
lost control Of the people In this county
II Is encouraging to notice that some OF
our most enthusiastic members are those
who In the start opposed third party,
and thought we could get what we de-
manded by clinging to the old party Of
platforms and promises; but the scales
are falling from the eyes Of the people
and 1t Is only necessary to present the
truth 10 them, backed up by good, sound
sense, to see q most complete victory in
1892 This is being done as rapidly as
possible We can congratulate ourselves
on one point and that is the people are
beginning to be little wary about re-
ceivlng everything as truth that we find
in the g. o. p. papers. We are glad to
hear occasionally the cheering senti-
ments that greet our ears from our
brothers Of the south. Brothers, we are
with you in this glorious reform move
ment. The bloody shirt and white su-
premacy will no longer keep US apart
Our interests are identical; then why not
work together for our common good?
We have no fears In this matter of the
north and south becoming united. Like
the Hon. John Davis little donkeys Of
South America, we have already been
too long engaged in kicking the stuffng
out Of each other; let US get the other
extremities together and lay for these
"Cusses" that have been engineering our
affairs for us. They tell us up here in
the north that this Alliance move origi-
mated in the south and Is a scheme to
enthrone the Democratic party; down
there they tell you 1t Is a Republican
dodge to get control Of the south. II is
too late now for such stuff as this to have
any effect with the people. We have in
some way become impressed with the
idea that both old parties are governed
by q few plutOcrats, whose policy is to
reduce to slavery the masses.
How forcibly we are reminded of that
bit Of history relating to the ISraelites
while serving their Egyptian task mas
ters, when they were commanded to pro-
duce their usual number of bricks after
having added to their usual tasks that of
gathering their own straw. There is a
similarity existing between this and the
policy Of grasping corporations that con-
troll our monetary system, when they de-
clare there will be no more money loaned
or mortgages extended except the obliga-
ton is paid In gold. How long, oh Lord,
how long? We are told that the Ali
ance ia responsible for this; we have
scared capital out Of the county. II the
capitalists themselves are not scared ere
long over the terrible state Of affairs
brought about by this system Of plunder
It viii be strange, indeed.
There Is one great advantage In our
favor; our task masters have not lgnor-
ant superstltious Jews to deal with; the
