THE FARMERS SIDE,
Where We are, how We got here,
and the Way out.
BY Hon. w. A. PETER,
=. s. SENATOR FROM KANSAS.
12nio, cloth
Price, 61.OO.

There is demand for 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 FARMERS
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 a 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 The Way out"
which is the fullest and most authcrita 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 compendium of
the facts, figures, and suggestions which the
farmer ought to have at hand
THE FARMERS SIDE has Just been issued
and makes q handsome and substantial book
of $50 pages We have arranged with the pub
ishers for It's sale to our readers at the pub
lishers' price. The book may be obtained at
our office, or We viii forward copies to any
address, postpaid, on receipt OF SLIGO per copy.

Some of the Striking aI,n Hands Return
to Work.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, Aug. 1.-Supt. Potter
claims that there was a break in the
strikers ranks IN the mechanical de-
partment of the Homestead mill last
night, and that twenty-five Of
the best skilled workmen returned
to work this morning. The men
had committee 60 down when the
men went in this morning and they
ascertained that but eight Of the eighty
men in the mechanical department are
of the strikers ranks.
1t is understood that are now several
strik-rs in the mill influencing the non.
ed with eignal SUCCESS in 1882, when a
whole turn of strikers went back to work
and soon organized all the non-unlon-
lists, taking them out on another strike.
1t is said that the Pinkertons will pre-
fer charges against the men engaged IL
the riot on July +. 1t is claimed that
they have the names OF 500 participants,
and will charge them with aggravated
riot and assault.

BATTLE WITH MOORS,
Spanish War ship and Troops Oh Shore
Exchange Shots.

MADRID, July 50.-The Spanish gun
boat Piler, while cruising along the coast
of Morocco, WAS fired upon by a party
of Moors on shore. Immediately upon
the firing of the first shot the command
er of the gunboat hoisted the Spanish
flag, thinking that the attack WAS the
result of mistake, and expecting that
it would cease rs soon rs the nationality
of his vessel was made known. In this,
however, he was mistaken, for
no sooner did the Moors see the flag
than the firing became more vigorous.
Thereupon the commander ordered the
fire TO be returned, and for a time II
brisk cannonade WAS kept up between
the vessel and the shore. The course
of the gunbost was changed so as to
bring her nearer the shore and render
her fire more effective. The Moors held
their ground until the vessel neared the
shore, when thev fled preclpltately.

How the Democratic Ticket Stands In
England.

f1gtisnH.
The fight will be fought out by the
Republican party as an American hight.
The policy of the Democratic party as
shown bv the tariff plank is English
and not American. Tariff for revenue
only, ". tt protection denounced as rob-
berry md fraud, is British doctrine, as
on, cat clearly see from the London
Graphic IN its issue of June 23:
EnglIsh.ncn Will watch Mr.. Clevelands
campaign with cordial sympathy, for, not
only IS his tariff policy N accord with the
orthodox economic school of England, but
his party platform wisely condemned the
arrogant ana irritating Ioreign policy OF us
opponents.
The London Star of June 24 declares:
Mr.. Cleveland is the best type of the
American statesman. and II he does not
win it Will be because he IS too sound re-
former.
The London Post declares that
4 Republican victory al the polls in No
yeInber would he a blow 10 the Tree trade
party In the states. and would fctard, for a
considerable period. the progress of tnnse
sound commercial and economic doctrines
which underlie British commerce Il grea :
ness and alone maintain british CONNER
cIai aScendency.
The great London journal, Engineer
ing. says that
There is somewhat general idea In this
country that the Mckinley tariff Oil will
b. repealed before long. or at all events be
50 much modified that the sting VIII be
taken out Of those clauses most objection
! aale 10 British manufacturers: snd 1t is for
this reason that the hopes of the Democrats
for the approaching presidential election
are so largely shared IN this country.
