a. any substantial relief. They have agreed
together to ignore in the coming campaign
every issue but one. They propose to drown
the outcries If . plundersd people with the
aproar Of q sham battle over the tariff, 50 that
capitalists. corporations, rational banks, rings
trusts, watered stock, the demonstration of
silver and the oppression of the usurers may
all be lost sight Of. They propose to sacrifice
our homes, lives and children on the altar of
Mammon; to destroy the multitude in order
70 secure corruption funds from the million
airs.
Assembled on the anniversary of the BIRTH
day Of the nation, and filed with the spirit of
the grand generation who established our indie.
psndence, we seek to restore the government
Of the republic to the hands of 1.-The plain peo-
ple,r with which class IL originated.
We assert our purposes to be identical with
the purposes Of the national oonstitution-to
form a more perfect Union, establish justice,
insure domestic tranquility, provide for the
common defense, promote the general welfare
and secure the blessings of liberty for ourselves
and our posterity."
We declare that this republic can only en-
durs a. . free government while built upon the
Owe Of the whole people for each other and
for the nation; that 1t cannot be pinned tn
gether by bayonets;N hat the civil war is over,
and that every passf0 and resentment which
grew out OF it must die with it, and that we
must be In fact, as we are In name, a united
brotherhood Of free men.
Our country finds itself confronted by con-
ditions for which there Is no precedent in the
history Of the world. Our annual agricultural
productions amount to billions Of dollars in
value. which must within few weeks or
months be exchanged for billions Of dollars Of
commodities consumed In their production.
The existing currency supply Is wholly made
quate TO make this exchange. The results are
falling prices, the formation Of combines and
rings and the Impeachment of the producing
classes. We pledge ourselves that II given
power We will labor to correct these evils by
wise and reasonable legislation, In accordance
with the terms OF our platform.
We believe that the powers Of government
In other words, of the peOple-should be ex-
banded las in the case of the postal service) as
rapidly and as far as the good sense Of an in
telligent people and the teachings Of expert
ence shall justify, to the end that oppression,
injustice and poverty shall eventually cease in
the land.
While our sympathies as party of reform
are naturally upon the side Of every PROPOSE
ton which will tend to make men intelligent,
virtuous and temperate, we nevertheless re-
gard these Questions-important rs they are
% secondary to the great issues now pressing
for solution, and upon which not only our in

Woman's Meeting at National
Alliance.

We publish the following at the
request of a number of friends, al
though it is little late. The report
is taken from the F. A. and |. u:
On Wednesday evening, Febru-
airy 8, a magnificent audience gath
cred in Representative hall, to hear
the noted women whe have earned
their laurels as speakers and work
ers in the F. A. and |. U. The
meeting was called to order by
President Loucks, who, after ex-
pressing his hearty sympathy and
cooperation, introduced as chairman
of the evening Mrs. Bna A. Otis,
vice-president of the Kansas State
Alliance. Her opening address was
replete with logic and abounded in
good hits. A suffrage song was
given by the Nj rgan family in their
inimitable manner.
DR.. Ellen Lawson Dabbs, of Fit.
Worth, Texas, was then felicitously
introduced, and captured the audi
ence in her first sentence. "What
Are the Facts ~ was her subject,
and she did not mince matters in
giving the facts
Mrs. Annie l. Diggs was next on
the programme, but her duties in
Washington prevented her attend
ance. She sent her paper, 1.-The
United States Congress VS.. National
Law" which was read by Mrs.
Elizabeth Wardall. Mrs. Diggs
proved conclusiveIy that woman's
presence was needed in all depart
ments of government, congress not
excepted.
A beautiful solo by Mr.. Morgan
was followed by Mrs. Helen M.
johnson, of Cory, Penn, who
opened fine address upon the ERA
ternal organization in the East"
with a new version Of "AbOu Ben
Adhem." The poem was beauti-
fully rendered and Mrs. Johnson
had the sympathy Of the audience
and held their interest closely.
Mrs. Southworth. of Colorado,
was introduced ms woman who
was a legal voter. She made few
humorous and appropriate remarks,
which were received with applause.
Emma Client Curtis poem, The
Amazin' Result" was expressively
rendered by Mr.. A. Wardall.
When Mrs. Mary E. Lease was
introduced, procession of boys
filed in and laid upon the desk be-
fore her a most beautiful and fra
grant offering of flowers. Mrs.
Lease gracefully expressed her
thanks t, the various friends who
had remembered her so kindly, then
proceeded with her paper, 1.-The LIE
gal Disabilities of Women " 1t is
unnecessary to say that it was a
grand production, for all who have
heard Queen Mary" know that
she is at home on the rostrum.
A beautiful whistling solo by one
of the Misses Morgan. also "A song,
picking Cherries Down the Lane"
reused great enthusiasm. The ex-
ercises closed with song, and
thus ended very successful enter
tainment, arranged and conducted
by Alliance women, and which, we
trust, assisted in making sentiment
