Fayoring the New Railroad,

EDITOR ADvooATE:-As / was looking
at the Capital, sdmiring it's fine picture
on the death Of the Alliance, my old
friend, Nels Anderson, came riding up
to my door and began giving me some
pointers az TO what had been done at the
interstate railroad meeting; and as our
local Alliance was meeting tonight we
decided to bring the matter before the
meeting, which We did and found our
neighbors about az enthusiastic as our
selves. When subscriptions were asked
for nine men came up to the desk and
subscribed S2U0 TO be invested in con-
struotlon bonds. You will hear more
from Liberty Alliance soon, as we will
keep up these railroad meetings until
this road is built, and owned by the peo.
pie who built it, and We sincerely hope
all other Alliances will do likewise.
The Alliance is not dead yet by any
means and is not going to die until ITS
work IL done. J. K. Hudson will not
live long enough to chronicle the death
OF the Farmers Alliance.

industrial organization that gave it birth.
The Alliance can i'll afford to neglect
this young child and leave it to the craft
and cunning Of the two old parties. AL
ready in our own state this young giant
has been led astray by old Miss Democ-
racy, in wild goose chase after Office
and Patronage. But this trip made the
child sick and it has vowed never to
swallow another dose Of "fusion," in
Kansas no matter how sweet and sugar
coated it may appear. But I need not
say to you that another and still greater
danger threatens the Peoples party.
After silver had received a black eye
at the late extra session Of congress, the
dissatisfied elements of both old parties
are now suggesting to the Peoples party
to leave the middle OF the road and take
to the wild woods with them on silver
gray" fox hunt. The real object is to use
the votes in our young party to aid them
in compelling the gold-bugs to recognize
silver equally with gold in our currency
system. After silver is placed on parity
with gold at the mints of the United
States in ratio Of 16 to L, then the silver
ties will join the goldites and snow the
Populists under world without end"
This fox hunt" is really more danger
ous to the final triumph of our principles
than fusion. Both are a stumbling block
TO reform. It would seem to be the
duty OF the industrial organization that
has been instrumental in bringing out
this new political party and in reality
forms the very backbone of the move
mont" to see to it that this infant party
is not stranded upon the quicksands of
fusion; or wrecked wholly upon the
gilded orsgs Of metallic money. But
these are questions for your own calm
deliberRtion and it is not for me to offer
advice but rather to extend the hand Of
welcome and bid you God speed in the
great work before you. And again bid
ding you welcome I trust your stay at
the capital will be both pleasant and
profitable, and that your deliberations
will be characterized by wisdom and
prove eminently successful to the cause
you represent.

Together with the above demands, the
following resolutions were reported by
the committee and adopted:
Resolved, That we recommended to the
National Alliance that permission be granted
to organize sub-AllisnCes in cities, and we
hereby instruct our delegate TO that effect.
WHERRAs, The improvement Of our hnan-
cisl condition is the paramount object of
the F. A q /. o.; therefore, be it
Resolved, That all cooperative business
receive our hearty support, and that we give
our support TO cooperative institutions.
WHEREAS, We acknowledge the truism
that taxation without representation is
tyranny, and that all governments drive
their just power from the consent Of the
governed; therefore, be il
Resolved, That we use all honorable
means to Orystalize this sentiment into fact,
and enfrRnOhise a sex that has for more than
q century been taxed, and has supported q
government in which che has no control.
Resolved, That we heartily commend the
action Of our chief executive in issuing his
late circular to the metropolitan police
boards Of the state.
Other resolutions favored an amend
ment Of the constitution so as to "give
the people the right to vote directly
upon and to make or unmsks any law"
etc. Also that national and state sec
rstsries shall in sending out oommuni-
cations for the collection and distribution
of statistical information give preference
to the duly accredited secretaries Of
farmers organizations. Another resolu-
ton calls for committee to provide for
reform literature and works on political
economy for the use Of sub-Allianceg.
During the closing session q resolu-
tion of coincidence on the death Of
George A. Camp, doOrkseper, was passed.
Another endorsed the National Aid de.

tive council endorsing the New York
Mutual Life Insurance company. John

Of Agriculture Morton's Chicago address,
and offered the following which was

Resolved, That the f. A. & I. q. Of the
state of Kansas, requests Grover Cleveland
TO remove this incompetent srpointse and
appoint some person to that high and re-
sponsible Office who has some little knowl-

faculties are not entirely obscured in the
dense fog Of Ignorance, and whose judgment
is not completely blinded by bitter partisan
prejudice.

ADDRESS BY JOHN C. OTIS.
1t is now twenty years ago since the
farmers OF Kansas for the first time, met
at the capital Of our state for mutual
consultation and 10 devise means OF re-
lief for financial depression. During
these two decades much has been &C.
complished, but there is vastly more yet
70 do. In behalf Of the honest and
earnest workers Of reform, / extend to
you most hearty greeting. You come
together at this time as men and women
who have the courage to dare and the
ability to do. Such has ever been the
history Of the f. A. & I. U. since its
first national meeting in st. Louis in
1889. It is an organization Of prompt
action and not of prosY resolutions.
Upon this occasion we welcome you
not only as representatives of the great
basic industry upon which all other in
dustries depend; we welcome you not
only as farmers and tillsrs Of the soil,
but we welcome you as representatives
and laborers in the grand industrial re-
form movement Of the nineteenth CEN
tury. The great absorbing question
before the true farmer and weslth-pro-
duCer OF to day is not how they may
produce more but how they may secure
fair price for what they already pro-
duce, How they may create q remun-
erstiVe market for their products. How
they may lessen the burdens Of taxation
direct and indirect. The pressing need
Of the industrial classes of America to-
day is for a system that shall at all
times furnish steady, remunsrstive en-
ployment for every able bodied citizen
system that shall completely emsnci-
pate the honest lsborer from the tolls Of
the financial solicitor. The great Ameri-
can hive OF industry needs to eliminate
the "robbsrs" and the "drones" and fur
niSh the busy workers" more ample
opportunity to Ill the storshouse.
"Too long have avarics and greed with Golfers
running o'er
Brought suffering and distress and need to la
boris humble door"
1t is to help to remedy these evils you
assemble here upon this occasion. 1t is
now time for action. Bold, aggressive,
determined action is the pressing need
Of thehour.
The Farmers Alliance and Industrial
Union has much to DO proud Of and
much to encourage it. Since it first pro-
claimed it's bold demands four years ago
ct st. Louis, it has accomplished q most
herculesn task. It has woke the nation
from center to circumference. It has
enlisted our 100000 earnest workers
under its banner. 1t has called into life
the most progressive and patriotic
political party that has ever yet
had an advent upon American
soil. That party was born in Kan

appeal by DR.. Borher for energetic work
in every voting and country precinct on
behalf Of the principles Of the Alliance
for an increased membership. he con-
demned the skull and cross bones with
which the Capital referred to the action
Of the convention.
Secretary French then made lengthy
report which showed about $500 in the
treasury and assets that are good
amounting to 81 400. He made many
recommendation regarding improve
ments in his department that were
adopted later.
Many minor changes were made in the
constitution, the most radical OF which
was allowing the admission Of lsborers,
doctors, preachers and teachers from
cities. This proposition provoked an in
tense feeling, and much discussion. Mrs.
LsRse srdsntly supported the proposed
change, and it was carried with but four
dissenting votes. It's opponents feared
the admission Of laborers from the cities
would enable that element to control or
pervert the present objects OF the
Alliance, IN fact capture it. Its friends
believed the Alliance could educate and
assimilate this class and receive assist
RnOe in exchange.
The date of meetings was changed to
the first Wednesday in December. The
afternoon was spent in amending the
constitution and the evening in reCeiv-
ing reports of managers Of the co-opers-
tive concerns and in discussing and
adopting resolutions.
Frank Forest, the boy orator, was in
tRoduced and made a vigorous and elo-
quent address. Working under the
auspices of the ADVOCATE, he offers his
efforts free to any Alliance or neighbor-
hood that needs his services.
Fred jackson, secretary Of the fire in
suranCe department, made report
showing that the company has s., 100000
Ofinsurshce and is rapidly extending its
work. He gave instances showing that
many losses were adjusted and paid
within ten to fourteen days. The COM
pany deserves more attention and better
patronage from the members OF the
order.
Mr.. Wardall presented the merits Of
the life department, lately established.
The convention was very much alive
and enthusiastic, though harmonious
throughout. All accepted the rule Of
the majority as satisfactory, so far 40
discovered.
RESOLUTIONS.
The resolutions adopted by the state
Alliance contain, in addition to those
fully quoted below, the declaration of
principles adopted at St. Louis in 1889,
known as the st. Louis demands. To
the silver plank is added "the ratio of 16
to l." The substance Of these demands
is:
/. The abolition Of national banks
aud the substitution Of legal tender
treasury notes in such quantities as the
business Of the country demands
2. Laws prohibiting "future" speOu-
lating in agricultural and mechanical
productions.
3. The free and unlimited coinage Of
