brotherhood Men Discharred.

The Adams express company officials
do not anticipate trouble in connection
with the recent wholesale dismissal of
their messengers, General Manager
Weir says their attention was called
TO the existence of the brotherhood
during recent troubles of the Southern
Express Co. Col Weir found in their
constitution n clause which express
company officials regarded as giving
the men clear power to declare strikes
in the territory under his charge Out
of 500 messengers only sixty-two be-
long to the brotherhood. These, he
says have all been discharged and their
places filled.-Associated Press.
This ought to make of every Adams
express employe an ardent advocate of
government ownership and operation
of the express business of the nation.

The FARMERS SIDE.
"Where We are, hOw we got here,
and the way out.
BY Hon. w. A. PETER,
SIS SENATOR FROM KANSAS.


There is demand for a comprehensive and
authoritative book which shall represent the
farmer, and set forth his condition, the infu-
ences surrounding him, and plans and prospects
for 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-
scribes the condition of the farmer in various
parts of the country, and compares it with the
condition of men in other callings. He carefully
examines the cost of labor, of living, the prices
Of crops, taxes, mortgages and rates of interest.
he gives elaborate tables showing the increase
of wealth in railroads, manufactures, banking,
and other forms of business, and he compares
this with the earnings of the farmer, and also
wage-workers in general. In clear, forcible
style, with abundant citations Of facts and fig
ures, the author tells how the farmer reached
his present unsatisfactory condition. Then fol-
lows an elaborate discussion of I" The Way out"
which is the fullest and most authoritative pres
entation of the aims and views of the Farmers
Alliance that has been published, including full
discussions of the 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 to
cover the whole ground, and it is unnecessary
to emphasize its value. 1t Is a compendium of
the facts, figures, and suggestions which the
farmer ought to have at hand.
THE FARMERS SIDE has Just been issued,
and makes a handsome and substantial book
OF $50 pages. We have arranged with the pub
Usher, for its sale to our readers at the pub
fishers price. The book may be obtained at
our office, or we will forward copies to any
address, postpaid, on receipt of $1.0o per copy.

MORE FUSION.

The Plutocratic Party of the Future Is Be-
ginning to Take Definite shape.
During last falls campaign leading
Journalists of both the old parties de-
clared that il it became necessary to
defeat the alliance movement, demo
erats and republicans would unite
against what they we're pleased to call
the ''fiatists, repudiationists, initiation
lists, crauks, anarchists" etc 1t be-
came necessary in Kansas and Ne
braslxa during that campaign, and the
programme outlined by these journal
lists was unhesitatingly and openly car
ried out.
The Toiler, of Nashville, the state
paper of the Tennessee alliance, reports
a similar combine in the south. 1t says:
1.-THE covered hand has been ex-
posed. In South Carolina the very best
elements of the republican party. in
fact they call it the white republican
party" through a comhittee of 100
representative leaders, has addressed a
secret circular to the non-alliance
democrats, or the straight outs" pro-
pressing a fusion to down the alliance
control in that state. The circular has
been published to the world. In this
proposition there is much. Before
the campaign cloud has arisen,
lust as its darl1ening shadow
appears on the horizon, we
find a plutocratic fusion to down the
people. Right in South Carolina, the
cradle of secession and the nursery of
opposition to republicanism, is where
we find the first formal overture for
the organization of a grand plutocratic
party. Those who have watched the
signs of the times predicted such
wondrous developments, but hardly
guessed it so early. 1t is we'll enough
that the scheme b=s been exposed. Let
the. poS,,'C know what the contest will
mall Let the anti-alliance forces lock
shields and trample under foot party
lines, that the rule of concentrated
wealth may be perpetuated Let the
fusion be as wide as is our glorious
country Then let the people lock
shields and trample under foot party
lines, that popular free government
may be inaugurated. Let the fusion
reach wherever the evil influences OF

Aud the foreigner" pays all the tax
No more will he hear Of his speeches aud sieh,
And figures that prove this and that;
For the whoio lots contained i'm the museum
which
Owns the relics Of grandfather's hat.
He's gone where the fioater viii trouble no
more.
Where tin plate will never cause strife;
He hasn't retired 20 the beautiful shore,
He's just comeback 10 private life.
