Vermont Awake.

A dispatch from Rutland states that
the Vermont Citizens Alliance is carry
ing ON an aggressive campaign and is
planning for 1892. State Secretary c. S.
Louis, of Reading, is devoting his whole
time to the work of the organization
through the state. He says he is in favor
of an independent action in the coming
presidential campaign by the farmers of
Vermont who are organized. During a
conference which he had with several
labor leaders here. it was proposed that
the Alliance and workingmen's organi-
cations should unite their forces in that
year to send representatives to the legis-
lature who will represent their views.
According to Mr.. Louis there is large
sprinkling of farmers in nearly every
town in the state who are ready to join
hands with the working1nen for political
reform.
The leaders Of both the Citizens ALI
ance and organized labor assert that the
joint convention of these organizations
that will be held in February will ask
their members to support no candidate
of either party for Office who will not
pledge himself to work for and support
the principles laid down by the conven-
ton. Beside this state convention, it is
proposed to have county conventions in
every county.

Banished Sectioualism.

A quarter of a century ago the Grange
organized and united by 1.-The sacred
tie of agriculture" those who had COM
mon interest in tilling the soil.
It brought together discordant ele-
ments and early established a new and
sacred relationship and brotherly feel
ing among the farmers of the nation,
and thereby sectionaism was forever
banished by organized agreement and
effort, as disturbing element among
the members Of the fraternity
The usefulness and the friendly results
of the order have been marvellous, extend
ing its peaceful mission beyond its own
membership. for whenever a Grange
charter has been issued or Grange hall
built it has become citadel of strength
in favor of a reunited country.
And thus the 4, 900 subordinate Oranges
Of the United States have been dedicated
to the interests of a perpetual govern
ment, represented by one flag. one con-
stitution and one destiny. If the
National Grange has accomplished no
more than what it has done for better
and friendly relationship between the
north and the south, it is worthy of the
gratitude and encomiums OF every loyal
citizen of the republic
Robbie. of Maine.

Two Million Voters.

This is an age of combination. The
railways, the insurance interests. the
bankers and all the trades of the United
States are now working in combination
for the respective good of the classes to
which they belong. Agricultural condS-
tions have changed and the farmer finds
that his class must combine in order to
secure its rights. You may be surprised
at the size of the Alliance. We have
about 5000, 900 members and Judge we
have at least 100000 voters had q
talk with the head of the Colored Ali
ance of the United States the other day.
He is a white man, but he tells me there
are $780, 900 members of the Colored AL
lance. These men are in the south and
they will vote with us. have Travelled
over a large part Of the south within the
past few weeks and l can tell you that
the Alliance is growing very largely
there.-Jerry Simpson in an Interview.

Hold Your Wheat"

A circular which is credited to the
Minnesota Alliance has recently been
issued. 1t is similar in statement and
advice to the former proclamations,
which declared that the farmers would
make money in the end by holding their
wheat. This latest circular gives figures
concerning the demand and supply of
wheat throughout the whole world,
which are of particular interest to all
growers of that necessary cereal.
1t gives the exporting capacity of the
United States at 140, 900, 900 bushels more
tran last year, which falls 10000, 900
short of supplying the worlds deficit
This O,00O,00O bushels, it says, would
supply Europe with bread for 1917 days.
The letter does not advise the farmer
to create an unnecessary scarcity or to
repudiate his debts, but to sell only
what he is obliged to when the receipts
are large and increasing. and when they
are on the decline to sell only certain
portion each month. In conclusion the
letter predicts that wheat will sell on
Minnesota and Dakota farms at $3.50
per bushel before the winter closes.

Kew to the Situation.

When farmers are prosperous all are
prosperous. When the farmers come
empty handed from the field all indus
tries are depressed and capital makes no
return on investment and hard times lie
around the home of labor. An industry
so important to all should be protected
and promoted. We cannot expect bust
ness and professional men to devote
much time or labor to this work. 1t is
and must be the especial work of the
farmer. We must organize. We shall
be able to accomplish everything that is
desirable and just, and we ask for moth
ing else. We seek not to interfere with
legitimate business, but to correct some
acknowledged abuses. We are con-
sentative body and advocate no doubtful
policy. We favor political reforms. but
are not ruled by any party. Ii. Brig

Cannon Re Criticised,

Ex-senator Van Wyck. Of Nebraska
who is member of the Farmers Ali
ance. urges agitation along lines which
he says will not provoke opposition or
criticism. Among his propositions are
these:
To declare illegal all synGcates, trusts
and combinations preventing competi-
ton, and then such penalties as will
suppress them: for an increase of circu-
lation by the free coinge of silver for
postal savings banks; for government
ownership of postal telegraphs; for loans
to the people on such security and rate
OF interest as congress may determine.
and for legislation providing an amend
ment Of the constitution requiring the
election of United States senators by
vote of the people.

Illinois Changers.

The resolutions adopted at the recent
meeting of the State Grange of Illinois
oppose the acceptance Of railway passes
by public officials; favor the assessment
Of all property ut its fair cash value,
mortgage and indebtedness of the owner
to be deducted therefrom; favor govern
ment control Of railroads. telegraphs
and telephones, and making it crimi-
nal offense to transmit messages in
regard to deals in options and futures:
favor the extension of free delivery
postal service to all the people: favor
congress Of all nations at Chicago dur
ing the Worlds fair for the settlement
Of international differences: favor
change in the law relative to mutual in
surance companies, SO that such COM
panies may insure churches, school
houses and grange halls.

a CONSERVATIVE.

Extract from Speech Made by c. b. Gall
to the Walla Walla Kan.) Alliance.
For self preservation and because it
is duty to ourselves. our families and
our country, we must have q voice in
this government, and that we may be
heard there must be hearty cooperation,
unani1nity and decision. The greatest
danger to our organization, the severest
strain upon our cooperation will ever be
partisan politics Our constitution de-
clares this to be social organization
where every member, be he Republican,
Democrat or Knight of Labor, will re-
ceive the same warm welcome, the same
cordial support; our politics is broader
than any party; it is founded upon pa
triotism and good fellowship; we are a
cooperation of farmers seeking a fair,
honest government which we believe
will bring greater prosperity to the
farmers and the whole country.
We desire to help with our united
strength such laws as will give to each
individual liberty and the right to en-
joy the fruit of his own labor. That
our demands may always receive the
earnest support of all farmers they must
be founded upon justice; they must not
be such demands as will give us benefits
at the expense Of other classes of our
people; our politics must be above taking
mean advantage of any class of people
or of any section of our country; if other
classes and other sections have taken
mean advantage of us, that will be no
valid excuse for resorting to similar
measures.
It is not by appealing to the evil pas
sions, striving to awake feelings Of re-
venge and retaliation, that we can hope
to gain the hearty cooperation of all
farmers; however attractive certain de-
mands may appear to the farmer at first
sight, if those demands are unfair and
unjust they will not receive the support
of our united strength-such demands
will never bring us any lasting success.
Good government is the combining of
law and liberty in just such proportions
as will best develop the manhood of a
nation, as will best advance a people to
higher civilization, as will best aid
humanity to more perfect life. But
the wisest statesman may adjust these
proportions Of law and liberty with the
greatest care and most perfect state
craft, and yet they will not combine into
good government; so the skilled chem
list may measure out in their exact pro-
portions the two elements, hydrogen
and oxygen, and yet they will not COM
bine into water; it requires patriotism
to combine law and liberty into good
government; it requires electricity to
combine hydrogen and oxygen into
water. But how much more difficult
the task Of the statesman; the chemists
elements ever combine in the same con-
slant proportion, while the proportions
Of law and liberty are ever changing
with the ebb and flow of civilization.
The statesman must know the past
and forecast the future-he must see
clearly and quickly the signs of the
times, ever measuring liberty and law
in the ever changing measures of our
civilization.

ODeratiou In Ruyfnp and Selling

Wisconsin Farmers Will Inaugurate CO.
operation in Ruying and Selling.
At the Farmers Alliance convention
held at Eau Clare. Wis, resolution WAS
unanimously adopted favoring the or
ganization of business department. at
the head of which will be placed an
agent who will represent all the mem
bers of the Alliance in Wisconsin Pres
ident Butt, of the state Alliance. when
interviewed, said the farmers of this
state who belong to the Alliance, when
this system is in working order, will
have an agent who will buy for them
and sell for them. For instance. as it is
now, the individual farmer buys his
reaper from some local agent. who
puts on about 100 per cent. profit. The
state Alliance purchasing agent, viii
receive the orders of the farmers for
reapers and receive the cash with the
orders. The agent will buy the reapers
direct from the manufacturers and save
to the farmers the middlemans profit
The transaction will be ON strictly
cash basis.
This is only one illustration. The CO.
operative stores as things are now are
buying their supplies here and there
wherever they can, usually from mid
dlemen, who of course must have a
profit. The Alliance agent will do all
the purchasing of this kind directly
from large wholesalers, and the ad-
vantages thus gained will operate for
the benefit of the farmer The Alliance
agent will also handle the wheat and
send it direct to Europe. The farmers
will sell their wheat through the agent,
and he will control the supply and put
it directly into the best markets, to the
profit and advantage of the farmer
1--WE don't intend to let Pillsbury or
Washburn have bushel of our wheat
unless they are willing to pay for it as
good price as we shall be able to get
under our proposed business system.
Eventually there may be national bust
ness agency, which will cooperate with
the state agencies"
The scheme for Wisconsin is to he
perfected at the state convention of the
Alliance in March

Keen This Before Yo..

As striking illustration of the colos-
sal lies with which the people are fed
and misled, we would point to the vote
of the Peoples party this year in the
state of Kansas. Nine-tenths of the
population Of this country in conse-
quence of the gross Misrepresentation
of the press believe that the Peoples
party vote of Kansas in 1891 fell off very
greatly from their vote in 1890, while
the official publication Of the vote taken
this year shows that although the total
vote of all parties in Kansas was about
10000 less than it was year ago, the
Peoples party vote was actually in
creased about TX per cent. over its
vote in 1890, or AZ per cent. of the entire
vote. The Republican majority in
South Dakota was reduced from 10000
in 1890 to 2,700 in 1891, while in Ne
braska the Peoples party came within
5000 votes of defeating the combined
power of both the old parties and elected
eleven district judges.
It is true that in some judicial dis
tricts of Kansas the Peoples party can
didates were defeated, but it was only
by an unholy union of the Democratic
and Republican parties against them.
The hereditary enemies of half century
gave up their sham battle and under the
inspiration of the money power rushed
into each others arms and in one fond
embrace resolved to forget protection,
reciprocity, the silver question and
everything else, if they could only pre-
vent the oppressed people of Kansas
from obtaining the governmental re-
forms which they sought. In this act
they conclusively demonstrated that
they are the two Dromios of plutocracy
and that only the difference of feather
distinguishes them from one another.
The people perceive that there is room in
this country for only two political
parties-a party which represents the
people and party which represents the
plunderers of the people.-Extract Peo-
pies Party Address.

Awakened Canadian Farmers.

The farmers have learned some lessons
in trade economics this year which they
would not have learned during life
time of prosperous unhindered farming.
The question of who pays the duty is no
longer a problem to them. They have
now. if they had not before, an unshak-
able conviction that on the coarse grains
and products which they send to the
United States they are paying the duty:
and furthermore that they have been
paying it during the past thirteen years
wherever duty has been imposed. The
oppressiveness of the Mckinley tariff.
besides educating them as to its own
effects, has started them to thinking OF
the extent to which they have been bled
by the home manufacturers. Cor. To-
ronto Globe.

PETER On RailrOading.

In recent interview Senator PETER
expressed himself as follows concerning
the operation of railroads: Reform in
transportation is necessary. believe
that the time has come when all the
transportation interests of the country
should be brought under one head. We
have now more than 1900 different rail-
road lines, all under separate and dis
tinct homogeneous and with conflicting
interests. living off profits accruing from
charges made upon the people. If these
roads were all brought into one system,
operated according to one plan and I'M
der one management, charges would be
equalized and the cost of service reduced
to minimum" g

Real estate, as all are perhaps aware,
is paying nearly nine-tenths of the state
tax, and yet nothing has been done to
right the wrong that now exists. Ac-
cording to the report of the state comp
troller the amount of personal property
taxed in the state is gradually decreas-
ing, while he made the further statement
that there was $4,000, 100000 of personal
property which escaped taxation.
If this vast amount of personally were
taxed. would it not decrease the amount
of tax paid by the real estate owners? |
answer, yes! And yet the question is
asked many times. SIS it true that the
farmers are paying an undue proportion
of the taxi
The state comptroller also makes the
further statement in his report that the
assessed valuation Of the property of the
people in this state for the purposes of
taxation for 1890 was: Personal, $685.
329. 131; real. 3.29S ,323, 931 This, add
ing the personal that escapes taxa
ton to the amount of personal that is
taxed, makes grand total of So ,885, &c.,
131. Therefore is it not plain that if all
the personal property were taxed it would
greatly reduce the tax paid on real es-
tate? The report of the state assessors
also corroborates the fact that the
amount of personal property within the
state equals or exceeds that of the real.
We must not lose sight of the fact that
double taxation is also in opposition to
our views, and that we are in favor Of
debt exemption, which would tend to al
leviate the grievances that now prevail

I'm pOrtaHt Interests.

The agricultural interests are of too
great Importance to the prosperity and
perpetuity of our government to be
lightly treated. The arbitrary none
tary policy of our government. adopted
at the close of the war, has brought
upon the farmers the distressed con-
dition which has engendered so much
hostility and unrest among the agricul-
tural class. They realize what has been
the effect of this legislation upon their
industry-that it is forcing them into
bankruptcy and poverty. robbing them
of their long cherished homesteads

Kick The Right Fellow.

In closing an address to the Alliance
convention OF Kentucky recently Con-
gresham Montgomery said:
But it is often said that farmers are
naturally complaining people. It is
either SO dry that nothing will grow or
it rains so much that the weeds and
grass will destroy the crops. It is too
hot or it is too cold. The last member
of the legislature is doing no good, al
though he was elected as farmer and
promised to legislate in the farmers in
terest. That the farmers are always
kicking at something or somebody.
Well, my friends, l say the farmers and
laborers of this country ought to kick.
They have good reasons for kicking.
have never made political speech in
my life that l did not urge them to
kick. The trouble has been that they
have not kicked enough, or rather, per-
haps, that they have not kicked with
Judgment and discretion.
Did it ever occur to you, my friends,
that a great many farmers have been
kicking the wrong men? You have been
kicking the fellow that is in trouble
with you. You have been showed into
the ditch and robbed by the protected
manufacturers, the trusts and the Wall
street gold bugs; and your neighbors-
the merchant, the doctor and the law
yer-who live in the same community
with you and who must depend on your
prosperity for their meat and bread,
have been pushed into the same ditch
and robbed with you. And too many
of you begin to kick these fellows be-
cause they are not farmers. some
times think it is because it is easier and
more convenient to kick the fellows who
are in the ditch with you than to get
out and kick the men who did the push
ing.
Don't waste your time kicking the peo-
pie who are in the same condition you
are and whose interests are the same.
but join hands with all men who make
up our agricultural communities and
suffer from unjust legislative discrim-
nations. and with one united effort
drive from power the agents and advo-
Gates of the tribute gatherers, trust mo-
nopolists and money barons.
