together as Republicans-to stand to
their principles and not give up plank
in their platform, national or State.
The Republicans most drop all such say
ings as"this county or that county is run
by niggers" He asked that they drop the
word "nigger" for five years He said
he honestly belivcd tn, Alliance was ear
nest in its efforts and if the Democratic
party did not yield the Alliance would
give it trouble.

reason can be given why salaries in our
