he is Elected President of the Farmers
Alliance.

Alllunce.
MEMPHIS, Nov 2l.-The Farmers
Alliance and Industrial Union reassem-
bled Friday morning. During the late
hours of Thursday nights session, G..
w. Macune withdrew from the order,
leaving the field free for Loucks. The
result was the election of the following
officers:
President-H. D. Louclts. of North
Dakota
Vice president Marion Butler, of
North Carolina.
National lecturer = Ben Terrell, of
Texas.
secretary-EditorT Taylor, of the Nash
vile Toiler.
Executive board = L. Leonard, of
Missouri; Mann Page, of Virginia; I. E.
Dean. of New York; III. Q. Deming, of
Pennsylvania.
This means a landslide in favor of the
Peoples party.
Macune, who was defeated, has a
scheme which conteinplates the organi-
cation of cotton planters of the south
into gigantic trust, to be controlled
through county. district, state and ma
tional leaders, with the purpose of dis
posing of the south's cotton crop direct
to the spinn1rs of Europe and America,
thus doing away with middlemen, and
insuring more liberal advances on the
crops and easier rates of interest Near
ly all the southern delegates are pledged
to the scheme. 1t means the complete
enforcement of the northern and south
ern wings of the Alliance. Macune
spoke at an open session of the conven-
ton Friday night, but made no allusion
to the threatened disruption, of the or

OF Being Disappointed.
NEW York. Nov. 1S.-The BROOKLYN
Eagle strongly denies the published
statements that at dinner at the Vic
toria hotel Cleveland met the Tammany
leaders and made promises and stipula.
tions to them in return for their support
at his election. In an editorial the paper
says the truth as to what the practition-
ers on Mr.. Cleveland's courage and free
dom learned is this:
They learned that Mr.. Cleveland
would make no promises, or anything Of
the sort, to any of them, or 70, or for,
any others through them; that he could
read the success of the ticket in this
state as matter of much
more Importance to them than to
him; that he repealed the idea
that his idea was questionable by them
or doubtable by any one; that they knew
he was aware who had been his friends
before nomination, and he would know
who had and who had not been his
friends after election; that he would
have no friends TO reward on account of
friendship, and no former opponents to
punish ON account of former opposition;
that he would go to election or defeat
equally free. and absolutely uncommit-
ted, but that If the Democratic people
and ticket were beaten in this state by
the Democratic machine, another Dem
ocratic organization was ready to take
its place at once. and that in such case
the youngest man present would not
live long enough to see that machine
sufficiently strong to win or to betray a
cause thereafter, or one of their number
ever sitting in a state or national con-
vention again.
at a dinner given by the Manhattan
Single Tax Climb, Mr.. Thomas G.. Shear
man. of Brooklyn, said that at the now
historical dinner there We're present
Messrs. Cleveland, Whitney, Dickinson,
Sheehan, Edward Murphy, Jr., and
Richard Croker.
Mr. Cleveland has not told me any
thing about the pledges he made.s said
Mir. Sherman ..but there happens to
be telephone in the room where that
dinner was held, which has conveyed TO
me what happened
Mr.. Sherman then pictured Lieuten-
ant Governor Sheehan as standing up
and addressing Mr.. Cleveland ON the
subject of pledges.
Mr.. Cleveland replied to Mr. Sheehan:
"Alr. Sheehan. have listened with the
utmost attention to what you have said

The Sentinel: When it was def
nitely settled that Mr.. Cleveland
was cover the fence, = a reporter in
teryiewed great number of lead
ing fnanciers of New York City
concerning the probabilities of
future business. Out of dozens who
talked about the matter not single
one was found expressing anything
but absolute security about the
future.
The business men of the country
recognize in Mr.. Cleveland safe
and conservative president, whose
efforts have always been toward the
betterment of the condition of our
people, and whose craftsmanship
directed line of economy and wise
administration ofaffairs that brought
prosperity and stability to business.
There are some people who have
been going up and down the land
since the election talking pauper
wages, British free trade, the ruin
of business and such bugaboos as
are common stock in trade with the
average campaign liar before the
election day. There will be no
pauper wages in this country.
There will be no British free trade,
among ourselves, and fair trade
with all the world. Business is safe.
and all interests and industries will
be properly cared for. There will,
however, be better condition of
affairs. Trusts and monopol;es are
in danger. Those aAmericans"
who have accumulated such enorm-
Gus fortunes under protection and
now live in foreign lands in royal
splender and own castles in Eng
land and Scotland will no doubt see
their profit reduced. The laws will
be made to treat all alike, and to
bring to every one, whether poor or
rich the same measure of care and
protection. The liars are out of
a job.

Capehart Raises His Record.

Wayne News.
Two years ago when Hon. James
Capehart carried this Congress dis
trict by 1875 majority, many per-
sons said it was because it was an
off year and there was not a full
vote cast. But in the Presidential
year of 1892 when a full vote is cast,
it now seems that his majority will
be little larger than in 80. This
proves what the Ne,cS has always
claimed, that the Democratic party
makes no mistake in nominating a
solid, representative farmer. They
cannot make much noise in cam
paign but they catch the votes at
the polls, and ballots and not
speeches are what it takes to elect.

The great Democratic victory on
the 9Th of November, was inquest
ionably the greatest political victo-
ry ever achieved in the history of
the world. 1t was a fight of the
people against a class who have
been pampered by special federal
legislation. Our government had
reached the danger line where it
was only a question whether the
masses should submit to be taxed
for the benefit of a favored class;
whether the people of the States
should submit to the control of their
elections by federal marshals, which
was only one step short of monarchy.
The Democratic party and the poo
pie have triumphed. 1t was a vic
tory from ocean to ocean. 1t only
remains now for the Democratic
party to be true to its pledges and
its platform, and true to the people
who have invested it with power.
