The New York Press thus rounds up
the loan robbers of that city. The much
abused money lenders of the west are
saints, compared with New York s
grasping sharks: THE sand 10 per cent
a month loan robbers of New York and
Brooklyn can not be too soon driven
from the community. They deserve to
be in prison, for they are thieves, and
their shallow subterfuges for evading
the penalty of extortion would probably
not save them from legal punishment
should a test case be made for the courts.
Notwithstanding former exposure, the
loan robbers continue to flourish. and the
wretched flies that happen into their
parlors continue to afford them an abun-
dant support. The authorities should
hunt them in and hunt them out until
the twin cities are clear of the
scOundrels."

The Salina Republican is just as stall

Secretary Tracy's new plan for the re-

yards will probably be put into effect
sovn. Assistant Secretary Solely is now
at work preparing set Of rules and reg

The precedent set by Mississippi last
year of fixing a suffrage qualification
in the states constitution, is likely to be
followed by other states. Maine is pro-

dence, sex, etc, that he must be able to
read the constitution, and sign his name.

The pastor of one of the churches at
Oswego recently admitted negro girl
TO membership in his church. and it
caused such a comnlotion among the
members that the minister was con-
strained to retire from the charge. That
is drawing the color line where it was
not drawn in the slave states in ante
bellum times. Even there and then the
church membership was made up with
cut regard to color or condition.

The Alliance Wasting Time.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
The president of the Kansas State
Farmers Alliance is wasting time and
labor when he urges the Southern ALI
ances to attend the Cincinnati conven-
ton with view to acting with the
third, independent party.
He makes an unwise threat when he
intimates that, unless the southern
branch of the order takes this step. the
northern farmers will go back to the
Republican party.
Our southern farmers will stay away
from the Cincinnati convention. Their
place is in the front rank of the Demo
cratic procession, and they will march
with it to assured victory in the cam
paign of next year. Their false allies
and hangers-on may go to the Cincinnati
convention, but the great mass of earn
est and honest Alliance men will refuse
to be led astray.
The Kansas disorganizer made a big
mistake when he appealed to the south.

Diseases change, as well as fashions.
A few wears ago, almost every prominent
man that died, had Bright's disease,
Now they all die of heart failure. And
yet, perhaps, Bright's disease and heart
failure came out of the same kind of
bottle. And then, how convenient it is
for the doctors to say that death was
caused by heart failure; for it is true. Ali
deaths are caused by failure of the
heart. A man that is hanged, dies of
heart failure.
