Where is Albert?

Say, Mr.. Morality and Temper
ance" party, where is Albert Griffin,
the Republican party anti-saloon
leader? His anti-saloon friends
have seen no account Of his public
anti-saloon career since June, 1888,
that being the time that your ma
tional convention sat down on him.
For this reason his anti-saloon
friends fear he has been eXiled or
boodleized by you, or that he has
strayed off his way and got lost,
while out on private search for a
mechanic, coal digger, hod car
rier, washermoman or any other
wage-worker who has had his or
her wages raised by reason OF the
Mckinley tariff.

The moment that justice is sacri-
feed to party interests or individual,
so doing becomes factious for JUS
tice being the grand object of the
law of the constitution Of the state
itself, the party sets itself above
these, and makes itself it's own OBJ
iect, while party can have no
right to exist except SO far as it is
formed for the public good.-Polit-
ical Ethics, Leiber w Woolsey) p us.
This principle which puts parti-
sanship in the room of patriotism,
and fear in that of conviction, only
retards the death of the party that
is mortally wounded already, but
debases character more than any
thing else. The fear of public
opinion in free country, where
character and motives are discussed
without reserve, is strong enough to
make towards of most men but
when it becomes moral principle,
that a man, if representative,
owes it to his party to vote with it
through thick and thin, and is
bound, if a private citizen, to sup
port the regular candidate, there is
turning of moral rules upside down
which may corrupt the character OF
a whole country.-Political Science
by Woolsey, Vol. II p 557.
Thus it is that selfish or party in
terest, and not the public good,
becomes the ruling motive in all
political preferment, and the results
are the legitimate fruit of the mo-
tive. Out of this motive spring
all the intrigues, bargains, sales Of
influence and patronage, briberies,
and crookedness that make our pol
itics reproach and our institutions

THE committee of the State AL
lance, appointed to investigate the
condition of farm loans in Kansas,
met in Topeka, on the 10th, and
formulated plans of work whereby
the farmers could be helped to OBJ
tain loans at a more reasonable rate
of interest, secure renewal OF loans
now under process of foreclosure,
or soon to be foreclosed, and the
committee believe they can make
the capitalist more secure, and also
the man who borrows and have
found on investigation that the man
who loans the money and the man
who borrows the money are often
deceived and beaten by the unscru-
pulous loan companies, and they
feel that better understanding be-
tween the borrower and the lender
will rebound to the credit of the
state.

Justice is sacrificed for party inter-

reading your paper for several

My understanding when l subscrib-
ed was that l was to get it three
months, but you continue to send it
for which | am truly thankful, for
have fallen in love withnit and the
people of Kansas. | want you to
still continue, because | like it's
course in politics. We have been
depending on the two old parties to
bring us out of the miry clay for
twenty years, and they have been
promising the whites and blacks the
"forty acres and mule" and none
Of us have any confidence in them.
We want a new kind of men and a
new party-one for the people, and
by the people, and not for the money

noticed in last weeks Atlanta
Constitution that some of your sub
Alliances after returning from the
Cincinnati had gone into resolu-
tions tQ return to the old corrupt
Republican party because the south
was not we'll represented at that
convention. Tell them not to give
us out, we are for the new party
The Republican party has been
promising the negro of the south
'forty acres and a mule" and the
so-called Democrat party has been
promising the whites "forty acres
and mule" and none have ever
gotten them.
Now we want to meet the labor
ing people of the Republican party
on halfway ground, and make a
Peoples party that will give all an
equal share Of the spoils. We can
not get along without a new set OF
men in office. We in the south
would as leave have Harrison for
president as to have Cleveland. We
don't care for old parties, but for
men with principle.
A few nights ago I'm our sub-Al-
lance we voted unanimous for a
new party. We instructed our del
egates to the county Alliance to
vote to instruct our county dele
gates to the State Alliance to ad-
vocate and vote for a new party
movement. Some of us have de.
clared ourselves Independent of the
old rotten Democrat party forever

P. S. Since writing the above |
have attended our Cobb county
Alliance. The question was sprung
about the Peoples party. We had
considerable discussion, but in
structed our delegates to the State
Alliance to advocate and vote for a
Peoples party. Our greatest trou-
bles is, there are SO many of our
people who are aspirants for office,
and they are on the fence until they
see which way the straws blow,
then they will fall in line and claim
they were in favor of the Peoples
party all the time, but did not want
to be too hasty. A. D.
Bro. Darby, the account you
saw in the Atlanta Constitution, to
the effect that some of our sub-Al-
liances had returned to the Repub-
lican party, is simply a Kansas
Republican lie, made up out Of
whole cloth. The Alliance of Kan
sas is firm as a rock; ever progress
sive, ever aggressive-so much 80
that when President Harrison ap-
pointed Chief Justice Horton, of
this state, to position on the land
commission, the Republican mana
gers petitioned the president to de-
fer his appointment until in October,
when it would be too late to call an
election, so that a Republican JUS
tice could be appointed to the va
cancy.
AS to those persons you speak OF
as being on the fence, we would
say-do as we did in Kansas-knock
the fences down. We have "cross-
ed the Rubicon"-we have burned
all bridges behind us"

Rare Musical Entertainment.

The citizens of Morris are to be
treated to II rare musical entertain
ment. On Monday evening, Febru-
ary 9th. the Lutteman Sextette, from
Stockholm, Sweden, Will give one of
their marvellous concerts at Court
House hall. This famous organiza-
tion arrived in this country last Oct
ober, and opened their concert season
at Chicago before one of the largest
and most enthusiastic audiences that
ever gathered in the celebrated Mus
ic Hall of that city. The newspapers
of Chicago were enthusiastic in their
praise of the wonderful entertainment,
all agreeing that no organization of
the kind that ever visited that city
could be compared with it in point of
real genuine soul-stirring music.
Where ever the company has given
concerts the highest praise has been
bestowed upon the entertainments.
We shall have more to say in relation
to this company in future numbers
of the TRIBUNE. Meantime don't for
get the date of this grand ent ertain-
ment-Monday, February 9th.

Farmers Institutes.

A Farmers Institute was held in
st. Cloud recently, and from the re-
port given of its proceedings we quote
the following from the Journal Press:
1.-THE second State Farmers Insti-
tute ever held in this city was sue.
cess from first to last. The attend
ance was large, much larger than had
been expected; the addresses were
practical and generally very fully IL:
lustrated; and all who attended. so far
as we have heard any expression. are
satisfied that they received much val
liable information. Many farmers
were good deal surprised to find that
the lecturers were not theorists. but
practical farmers, who go back to their
farms as soon as their institute work
is completed. superintendent Gregg
and his assistants are doing valuable
work among the agricultural commun-
tiles of the state, doing it i'm straight.
forward. practical way. and the better,
these institutpstisfe qtilown the better
they will he eappreciated.'
Since reading the articles which re-
Gently appeared in the TRIBUNE in
favor OF holding q Farmers Institute
in Morris several farmers have ex-
pressed themselves to MS as strongly
in favor of the suggestion, and it is
now hoped that the farmers of Stevens
county will move in the matter and
that an institute be held here in the
near future.

THE MORRIS.

There has been change in the pro-
prietorship of this popular hotel, MI
Sam. Mathews retiring and Mr.. Chas.
Dushek taking his place. Hereafter
The Morris will be run by Buckley q
Dushek. The latter gentleman, form
erly of Portage, Wis, and later Oh
Brainerd, Minn., is an experienced
hotel man and is universally popular
where he is known, us he will be here
when our people come to know him
thoroughly.
The opening of The Morris has
proved great benefit to our city and
it is clearly to the interests of our peo.
pie to aid in its support in every legitl;,
mate way. A city or village with
out u good hotel will never cut much
of figure in the line of progress, as
the travelling public will avoid all such
places whenever it is possible to do So.
Now, then, The TRIBUNE has sug-
gestion to make. It is this: That our
citizens hold n banquet at The Morris
on some evening in the near future,
for the benefit of it's proprietors. The
Morris was built without cent OF
cost to our city. No bonus was asked,
as is customary in many other towns,
and we believe it only right and prop
er that we should do something to en-
courage the proprietors of that hotel
and show our good will toward them,
and we know of no better way to show
the kindly feeling which is due them
than by holding reception or banquet
for their benefit. :
We threw out these suggestions
hoping that some of our prominent
citizens may second the idea and take
the necessary steps for perfecting ar
for the suggested enter
tainment.

We notice that in nearly all the

We notice that in nearly all the
surrounding counties the commits
sioners took interest enough In the
tax payers to have the county print
ing done by the lowest bidder, while
in our county it was given arbitrarily
at 10 per cent of legal rates; shutting
out all Whitley of the Sun.
Just hear the old barnacle talk! AT.
ter having been fed at the public crib
of Stevens county for seven long years,
as county treasurer at "full legal rates.
and after having made proposition
to oblige the county commissioners to
to pay full legal rates for county
printing, he has the brazen effr6atery
to criticise the action of our county
board because they did not see fit to
designate the Sun as the official paper
of Stevens county! What cheek!
What gall! What brazen impudence!
Why, this old barnacle was just more
than anxious to pool with the TRI.
BUNE and make the commissioners
pay the full rate allowed by law, anu
because we refused to do so, this old
barnacle assumes the right to abuse
the county commissioners for doing
what they believed to be right. The
truth of the matter is this: The coun-
ty commissioners are business men
and men of experience; they desired
to have the proceedings and other of
fetal matters pertaining to the county
published in paper that has a gene
raj circulation in the county, and also
desired to have the printing done in a
workmanlike manner. and us II matter
of course designated the TRIBUNE as
the official paper, knowing full well
that the work could not be done in Il
satisfactory manner in the Sun office.
That's all.

Relief for Sufferers by Hail.

Milo Camp, who by the way, never
loses an opportunity to do a kindly act
for bis brother farmers, more unfortu-
nate than himself, recently wrote to
our delegation in the legislature, Sem
atOr Canestorp and Representatives
Setterlund and Lyman. urging on them
the necessity of having bill passed
by the legislature for the relief of the
farmers i'll tins district who suffered
the loss of their crops by hail during
the past year. In reply Mr.. Camp re.
ceiyed letters from each member
Of the delegation in relation
to this important matter. Messrs. Set
terlund and Lyman wrote him under
date of Jan. 10th that they introduced
abill on that day for that purpose, and
they think it will pass the house.
Senator Clnpstorp writes that he will
use his Lest endeavors to h I'VE it pass
in the sell ,te. The bill is similar to
that one passed in 1889, furnishing
seed grain to the sufferers by hail.
For this interest in the farmers of
this district by Mr.. Camp he is desarv.
ing of great praise. and 1t is a
pleasure for the TRIBUNE te make a
note of this fact. Mr.. Camp will snre-
ly receive his reward. ii the people of
this district possess the proper appre-
citation of the kindly act, and we are
sure that they do. Say what you may,
Milo Camp is u kind, generous, big
hearted man.
