Tom WatsOn's Epigrams.

This congress makes no attempt to
repeal the Mckinley tariff which they
so much denounce. Isn't it strange
This congress has spent half mil
lion dollars more than the billion dol
lar congress up to this date. Isn't it
strange? This congress refuses to put
refined sugar on the free list and thus
destroy the sugar trust which is levy
ing its illegal tribute on every home In
the land. Isn't it stranger
The house has instructed the COM
mittee on ways and means to report a
bill to tax incomes, and the Democratic
leaders refuse to obey the house. Isn't
it strange?
This congress has been in session
seven months and has passed no gener-
al laws except those to spend the peo-
ple's money. Isn't it stranger

1t takes genius to make political
cock tail. Democrats put Cleveland
on at the head of the procession, be-
cause he is q friend and protector of
millionaires and Mugwumps and is in
favor of keeping as many Republicans
as possible in office; then they place
Stevenson, of Illinois, on at the tail of
the procession, because of the fact that
when he was First Assistant Postmas
ter-General, during the reign of Cleve-
land, he turned all the Republican
fourth class postmasters out of office
he could reach with his axe. Thus il
is expected to catch the bag full at
both ends, but as the tail don't wae

turb its dinner, it is safe to say the

Dear Congressman.
a correspondent at Columbus

a correspondent at columbus
writes:
| got to hear Private John Allen
and Col. Muldrow speak to the people
of this city. They spent two and one
half hours eriticising each other.
John Allen stated in the out set of his
speech, that he and Mnldrow had got
ten all they could in the past and were
now asking for more. Taking the
testimony each against the other it
was evident that the people of this
district had given great deal more
than they had received They had
drawn $4,000 from the Treasury, and
during the 16 years they were in Con-
gress, aside from few seed aud
speeches, / do not know that people
have gotten so cents. Many of US are
getting tired of that kind of thing, and
are anxious for q change. There is a
strong Third party sentiment here
now and we only need a leader.

The New York Herald says under
the present administration of affairs
the monopolist is everywhere and the
people are no where. The masses are
cajoled and the classes are rampant.
The rich capitalist can have all he
wants if he bleeds freely before cleo
tion; but the poor man must look for
himself. This is not particularly in
spring outlook, but we are optimistic
enough to believe that there will be a
grand shake up by and by, and this
crooked business be made straight by
proper indignation.

The ocal. Demands.

Ia. We demand the abolition Of national

farm products, and also upon real estate, with
proper limitations upon the quality of land and
the amount Of money.
c. We demand that the amonnt OF the cir

3. We condemn the silver bin recently passet

free and unlimited coinage Of silver.
4. We demand the passage OF laws prohibiting

An Alliance Exchange I'm New
Orleans.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Aug. 1, 1892.
Editor Mississippi Leader:

MEMPHIS, TENN, Aug. 1, 1892.
Editor Mississippi Leader:
In your paper of July 14th you sug-
gest the establishment of an Agency,
similar to the Memphis Exchange, at
New Orleans, La. Am glad you have
called attention to this as it is in har-
-mony with my convictions as express
ed, 10 my report to the last State AL
lance, where used the following
language: al recognize the impossible
ity of proftably serving the Brother
hood of the entire State from my
location, and suggest the creation of
agencies, by this body, at such points
as will best serve the interests of the
brethren This system of having
more than one agency is now salts
factorily carried out in some of the
States, and is, in my judgment, right.
The Louisiana Alliance, | understand,
has discontinued its system and some
of the most prominent members in
that State promise that in case Missis-
sippi inaugurates n business at New
Orleans the Alliance Brethren of that
State will give it their support and
cooperation. believe the same
system as used here can be put into
practical effect in New Orleans and
would unquestiOnably be of great ser
vice to the brethren of South Missis-
sippi. Fraternally yours,
B. G. WEST,
State Agent.

pense of redeeming and renewing the
legal tender notes.


legal tender notes.
Sixth. Even IL the entire $500, ,000
per annum should be added to the
permanent expenses. of the govern
ment, it would be but a small price to
pay for the service which the banks
will render both to the government
and to the public through the instru-
mentality of such a circulation as
theirs will then be.
Seventh. The moderate.profit of II
per cent. per annum will be material
ly reduced bv the expenses of fredemp-
tion and supervision, including loss OF
interest on the redemption fund. so
that the banks will not realize quite
as much as tho government pays, but
still il will constitute q sufficient in
centive to banks to fund all the green
backs they can, and when the whole
issue is funded whatever amounts are
from time to time paid out in redemp-
tion of the notes of failed banks will
probably be collected and presented
afresh in order that circulation may be
obtained for them.
Eighth. The public will be bene-
fitted by having bank note circula-
tion amply secured, and of which
every note is redeemablc in coin or in
n certificate, representing coin actual
ly on deposit in the treasury, and re-
deemable, too, not only at the bank
which issued it, but Mt any central re-
serve city; circulation large enough
in volume to admit of easy and
prompt adjustment to the varying
needs of different localities, its fexi-
bility- secured by the constant pres
sure of the government tax on the one
side and the constant inducement of
the bond interest on the other, while
the numerous points of issue, and
their wide distribution over the conn
try, afford ample protection against
combinations or other devices for arti-
ficially expanding and contracting the
circulation.
Ninth. With such aresource at hand
we may view with indifference the
transfer abroad of large part of our
burdensome and Improbable stock of
gold, where it will be more useful to
us in expanding the markets for our
exports of agricultural products than
it can be here locked in the treasury.
Tenth. The national bank system
will be restored to healthy activity
and stimulated to frcsl, growth espec-
tally in those parts of the country
where such banks are most needed
and are now found in least numbers.
