THE PROHIBITION STATE CONyEN
TON.

The LEADER hopes to see large at
tendance at the Prohibition party Con
vention in Jackson next Tuesday, 18th
inst. Chairman Ware and other rep
resentatives of the Prohibition party
specially desire and invite Peoples
party men, who favor the suppression
of the liquor traffic and declaration
of war on the Whisky Trust, as well as
on all other monopolies, to attend the
Convention for a conference, looking
to a union or cooperation of the two
parties in Mississippi.
There ought'nOt to be any insuper-
able difficulty in the way of all earnest

A WORD OF CAUTION TO ALLIANCE
MEN.

Alliancemen should take heed and
never, on any accession, in the capacity
of their Alliance organization, take
partisan political action. The Alliance
must be essentially political organi-
cation to carry out its principles, but,
in its organic capacity, it should never
take partisan political action. 1t
should not commit itself to the sup
port of the Democratic party, the Peo-
pies party, the Prohibition party or
any other party. The moment it does
so it becomes partisan and violates
one of the fundamental laws of its
being which declares it non-partisan
and guarantees that the Order shall in
no way interfere with the religions or
political liberty of any of it's mem
bers. AS citizens, Alliancemen may
endorse any party they please, but not
when organized as an Alliance.
Alliance brethren are urged to bear
this caution constantly in mind. There
is nothing that will more speedily de-
stroy the Alliance than to convert it
into a partisan political machine.
The resolution adopted by the Kinds
County Alliance last Friday, by which
an effort is made to commit the ALI
ance membership bodily to the sup
port of the Democratic party, is sub
iect TO this criticism The Alliance iS
too great and important an organiza-
ton to the farmers, to be manipulated
for the benefit of the Democratic or
any other party. Remember that
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1892-05-12

The LEADER must not be considered
as editorially endorsing the opinions
of correspondents and the utterances
of newspapers from which it copies,
unless 1t is expressly SO stated. We
believe in allowing great latitude of
expression on all matters Of public in
terest. Much is published TO excite
thought, and to show one class of read
ers what another class is thinking
about.

Reduced Rates to state Prohibition Con

ycntiOn.
Chairman Ware writes us that all
railroads in the State will pass and re-
turn delegates to the State Prohibi
ton Convention May 18th for one and
one-third regular fare, on the certifi-
cate plan. Delegates should be GER
tain to secure certificates from the
railroad agent at starting point, SO
they can be countersigned by the Sec
rotary of the Convention.
Mr. Ware also authorizes the LEADER
to say that he desires as many Peoples
party men as possible to attend the
Prohibition Convention for the pur-
pose of conference, with view to unit
ing and cooperating in the coming
campaign.

Pebble as a camping and fishing
resort and manages to find time
every summer to spend few quiet

somehow or other it was not so

Harry Burbank and others of Po-
catello. These big hearted rail-
road men went away however as
soon as they learned that they
were making too much noise with
their guns and left the Wall street
