Well, what's wrong about that?
Haven't you read how the tariff on
tin has developed the American tin
industry until the American product
has become 80 cheap that it is almost
a disgrace to use it, while American
laborers employed in its manufacture
are likely to become plutocrsts from
the high wages they receive3 Ifthat

Of other men besides farmers in this
movement IL it is ever expected to
succeed. The Citizens Alliance af-
fords the means of accomplishing this
result, and thousands of business men
are joining il. They like to feel in
doing so, however, that they are well
coined TO the ranks Of the reform
movement, and that they are not re-
garded as intruders. They do not
like TO feel that they are uniting with
men who are disposed to aid great
combine to crush them out of exist
ence. If the members of the Peoples
party in Kansas exercise a little good
horse sense they can sweep this state
in this year of our Lord 1892 like
cyclone, but they can never do it by
establishing National Union stores.

The influence and standing Of this

Believing that the business agents
of the several state exchanges were
engaged in a legitimate business in
the interest OF members Of the ALI
snce they were given seats in the
Supreme Council at Ocsls in 1890.
The report in favor Of the National

isfed the Supreme Council that they
were not interesting themselves in
legitimate business pursuits, and
hence their report was tabled, they
we're unseated, and the Supreme
Council heartily put itself on record
as having no responsibility whatever"
fer their action, and yet they have the
gall to attempt to palm this concern
upon the people. The officers of our
Kansas Exchange also assume TO
turn that institution over to the Ma

capital, without the consent OF those
who have subscribed to its stock. II
is breach Of trust which is liable to
get them into hot water. The reso-
lutions that are pouring into this
Office from all parts of the state show
the sentiment Of the people to be
right upon this subject. They are
not yet ready to put themselves in the
power Of the most gigantic trust ever
vet undertaken to be established upon
this continent; nor are they ready to
countenance the project Of freezing
out every merchant now doing busi-
ness in this country.
Through their own peculiar meth
ods the men empOyed by the company
as agents have succeeded in establish
ing q few stores. We do not hesitate
to say that we thoroughly believe it
to be the duty of every Alliance and
Peoples party man to boycott every
one Of these stores that are now or
may be hereafter established. We
cannot afford to countenanCe this
thing. live expect the support OF men
engaged in legitimate business pur-
suits we must not show ourselves
favorable to q scheme which seeks to
destroy them. Let us exercise little
good business sense in our politics if
we expect to succeed. Merchants
and business men are in the same
boat with all the rest of us. Over
10000 BUSINESS failures during the
past year ought to be sufficient
attestation of this fact. They are
perfectly aware Of the necessity Of
some kind of a change, and We know

The Senate has something to say about
which the American sovereign is not
permitted to know. This mornings Post
says that if the Senate speeches had been
reported verbatim they would have cre-
ated sensation throughout the entire
country.
But the judge has his confirmation

difference; what business have the "clod-
hoppers," the prairie plowers and the
greasy mechanics to know what sort Of

It's too tiresome to explain to the voting
herd; they ought to be satisfied to vote
for the tariff, sound currency, and to
"Hip, hip, hurrah," for Harrison or
Cleveland.

Nearer my gold to thee.

Nearer my gold to thee
Nearer too thee!
Fen though the horse be dark
That raiseth me;
Still my song shall be,
Nearer my gold, to thee,
Nearer to thee!
Then let the way appear,
Steps unto heaven;
For all congress sendeth me,
Thanks shall be given;

Nearer my gold to thee,
Nearer to thee,
Then with my waking thoughts,
Thirsting for praise;
Over mems stony griefs
Babel I'll raise,
And so by their woe I'll be,
Nearer my gold to thee,
Nearer to the!
And then on Joyful wings,
CleaYing the sky,

Upward Ill fly;
Still all my song shall be
Near my gold to thee,
Nearer TO thee.
LONG METER INTERLUDE1
And now amidst the upper air,
Beyond the faint of serfdom, where
There's not an odor from the herd,
And no poor widows sigh Is heard:
Sun, moon and stars forgot,
Forgotten every poor mans lot.
Ion WITH THE DAHCE1
Around the banquet board wen re4eI
And curse the greenback, court the devil:
Wen toast the single standard gold.
And leave the silver in the cold.
And all the while our song shall be.
The bonds will bring us nearer thee.
Nearer our gold to thee,
Nearer to thee!
Fen though the e. d.
Has married the e. O. d..
Yet still wen hope and pray
That they may near US stay
And that our Doodle may
Keep them nearer to thee.
