There is demand for a comprehensive and
authoritative book which shall represent che
armer, and set forth his condition, the inhu-
,nces surrounding him, and plans and prospects,
or the future This book has been written BY
Hon. w. A. PETER, who was elected to the
United States Senate from KanSaS to succeed
senator Ingalls,. The title is The FARMER'S
SIDE, and this indicates the purpose Of the work.
In the earlier chapters, Senator PETER de-
,cribes the condition Of the farmer in various
parts Of the country, and compares it with ths
condition of men in other callngs. He carefully
examines the cost Of labor, Of living, the priceO
Of crops, taxes, mortgages, and rates Of interest.
lie gives elaborate tables allowing the increase
Of wealth in railroads, manufactured, banking,
and other forms Of business, and he compares
this with the earnings Of the farmer, and also
wage-workeD in general. In clear, forCiblo
style, with abundant citations Of facts and hg-
ures, the Author tells how the farmer reached
his present unsatisfactory condition. Then fol-
lows an elaborate discussion Of "The Way out"
which Is the fullest and most authoritative praS-
entstion Of the aims and views Of the FArmsn'
Alliance that has been published, including full
discussions Of tho currency, the questions Of
interest and mortgages, railroads, the sale Of
crops, and other matters Of vital consequence.
ThiS book Is the only one which AttemPtS 70
cover the whole ground, and Il IL unnecessary
70 emphatic itS value. 1t 10 compendium cf
the facts, AgurSs, and suggestions which the
farmer ought 70 have At hand.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE AND PROHIBITION.
To the RdirOr Of THR ADVOCATE:

WOMAN SUFFRAGE AND PROHIBITION.
To the RdibOr Of THR ADVOCATE;
The Kansas City Star (DemOcratic)
and the Wichita Eagle (Republlcan) are
greatly worked up that the st. Louis
conference did not adopt prohibition and
woman suffrage plsnks in its platform.
They aetm almost enraged about It. II
Is strange that the complaints should
come principally from "jolnt" patrons
and supporters and those who are the
bitter foes OF both those reform meas
ures. 1t only proves that they desired
to see such plsnks adopted In order, a.
they think, to make defeat of the new
party more certain. All true and prac-
tical reformers are glad these Issues ART
left out of The St. Louis platform.
Perhaps the Eagle can prevail on the
Republican party retaining the prohibit
ton plank In its state platform, particu
larly as that was what elected their gov
ernor 10 1890; and It should also urge the
national Republican convention to adop'
such plank. The Star, being itself y
great reform paper of the great reform
Democratic party, might get that party
to adopt those planks. It would be In
teresting to see new and real live issue
adopted by either of the old worn out
parties, whose principal aim for the last
twenty years has been TO play into the
hands of each other and divide the Of
fees. A PROHIBITIoNIsT.

Free Coinage of Silver.
Wichita, Kansas.


The following resolution was intro
duced at the meeting Of the Fourth Con,
grqssional District Alliance by its author,
Mr.. A. W. DennisoD, Of FL Dorado, Kan,
and action postponed until the next meet
ing to permit discussion in the different
county and sub Alliances:
Whereas, The law of April 2, 1872, made
4121S grains of standard silver, nine-tenths
ARe, a full legal tender dollar, which CON.
tinued until the revision of the United
States statutes ON June %, 1875, and by che
law of February %, 1873 sad silver was
made dollar and full legal tender for all
debts public and private, except when other
wise expressly stipulated in the contract,
and
Whereas, Each United States bond now
in existence has embodied therein, among
other things, these words: "And Is redeem.
able at the pleasure of the United States
after the frst day of July, 1907, IN COIN OF
THE STANDARD VALUE OF THE UNITED STATES
on said July IA, 187O," and NO considerable
amount of the debts and credits of the pres
ent time were contracted during the period
intervening between said June %, 1876, and
February %, 1873; and
Whereas, Its opponents declare that the
free and unlimited coinage of silver at the
present ratio would, (1) Make the United
States the dumping ground for the silver of
the world and food this country Herewith;
(2) Enable foreigners to ship 75 cents worth
of silver to this country and take away 100
cents worth of gold therefor; (3) Bring gold
to premium and drive it to foreign coun-
tries; and
Whereas, It is not e1essary for the United
States to maintain the same ratio between
silver aud gold as do other nations as ia
evidenced by the fact of our ratio being 16
to and other nations being 1516 to l, and
Whereas, Il has at different times been
deemed expedient to change the ratio be-
tween silver and gold a. is evidenced by the
Law Of June %, 1884. reducing the weight Of
gold in the dollar; and
Whereas, The actual ratio of the CONNER
oial value between silver and gold is about
20 tO1,
Now therefore, We DEMAND the free and
unlimited coinage of silver dollars Of the
present weight and fnenes4 and the free
and unlimited coinage of gold at such
ratio as to make silver aud gold at parity
in fact; aud the additional issuance of treas-
ury notes, not TO exceed the amount of
United States silver and gold coin, in such
amounts "a may be deemed adequate to the
needs If business. and tn & all Uf said money
shall be interchangeable aud q full legal
tender for all debts, public and private, ex- |
cept where previous 10 this time, it has been |
otherwise expressly stipulated in the con- |
tract.

There is a system of underground rivers
in Florida almost as extensive as that
which appears on the map. 1t often
happens that on a farm or sometimes in
a thickly-settled neighborhood a small
circle OF ground from foot to 100 yards
in diameter will suddenly cave in, leaving
an apparently bottomless abyss of water.
This indicates that an underground river
is lowing beneath and that the crust has
become too thin and has broken through.
These sink holes with flowing water at
the bottom are so common as to excite NO
attention among Florida people, but they
are certainly indications of state OF
things which prevails nowhere else in the
United States.
