The Text OF Resolution Against th'
President.

The Text Of Resolutions AgaAnst tho
President.
At the meeting Of the Shawnee County
Farmers Alliance held in Topeka, sal
urday, July 21. the following resolutions
were passed unanimously:
Whereas, The encroachments OF cor
porate power upon the labOrlng classes
as exempliied in the Pullman Car COM
pany and the railway corporations that
have sustained that company in the pres
ent strike, have reduced labor at Full-
man and elsewhere to the verge Of star
walton and brought the country to the
verge of civil war; therefore be II
Resolved, That as members OF the
county alliance of Shawnee county we 90
condemn the present tyranny and en-
croachment Of these corporations, and do
declare that the Pullman company and
the railroad managers BY their repeated
refusal to arbitrate with their employees
have been guilty Of the crime OF blood
shed that has followed the strike and are
responsible for the present disturbed con
ditiOns of our country.
Whereas, The interests Of labor on
farm. in workshop and on railways are
identical and the injury of one 10 the IN
jury of all; therefore, be it
Resolved, That we extend our sympathy
to the Pullman employees and to the A
r. u. and do recommend to the sub
alliances that should the present cOndi-
ton continue until suffering ensuess that
they contribute OF their store to the re-
lief fund of that society
And most earnestly do we urge our
members to preach '-line upon line.
precept upon precept''to the Discontinued
labor the duty of investigating economic
questions and OF persuading the laborer
to trust the only weapon Of freemen the
ballot and to vote as he struck for his
emancipation from the tyranny Of capl-
talism; and
Whereas we. believe the United States
courts have usurped powers never grant
ed them by the constitution nor dreamed
of by the trainers of il, and believing
this usurpation destructive of Individual
liberty and of the fundamental prlnci-
pies of our governments therefore be II
Resolved, That we condemn such usur-
patton, and call upon our representatives
in congress to protest against It in the
name Of liberty. and we hope to live TO
see a congress elected that shall restore
the Judiciary to its proper place in the
government
Whereas, Grover Cleveland, by send
ing the United States army into several
states against the protest Of the COVER
nors thereof. has, we believe, trans
degraded the state to the condition of
provinces, and robbed them of their
legitimate place in the nation
Therefore we, in our love of the ori9i-
nal form of our government as our faith
ers left it to US, do protest against this
encroachment Of federal power and see
in it only that Capitalization shat will
ultimately destroy all state rights, and
we believe that for this great national
crime he should be impeacned

Kansas Another telegram followed a
few days later which announced his
death.
There seems to be some mystery con-
nected with the affair, for no one here
has ever heard of the man, so far as his
brother was alb. to ascertain. He made
q round of the underta King establish
ments. but none had ever heard OF such
a man being buried here
A few weeks ago an old man. decrepi
and lame, called upon residents on To-
peka avenue, and begged money to ena-
bic him to get to his relatives who he
said lived in Virginia. Nearly every
one gave him something. and he disap-
peared IN day or two and nothing has
since been heard from him. 1t is posi-
BILE that this was the lost man, and that
he died in some village near Topeka.

On State streets pave !, 900, 600 feet are
pacing, restless, to and fro. Some haste
as messengers of JOY, and some on mourn
full errands go, and in this great and surg
ing throng men tug and jostle as they
wend; anon hand is clasped in hand, and
greetings pass from friend to friend.
Now, who is this who comes alone,
whose presence all the passers shun? Say,
is he stricken with the plague, or has he
some foul treason done? A cane is poked
into his ribs. a cabbage takes him in the
breast, a peeler swipes him on the back
and knocks his system galley west. The
men who meet him cross themselves and
crawl beneath some passing dray; the chill
dren boot him as he goes; the horses try
to run away.
He is not stricken with the plague; no
traitors decd has smirched his fame.
Why, then, do men and women weep up
on the mention of his name? Why, then,
do even children boot and horses try to
run away He is the man who wants to
tell the funny things his children say.

HER PA ANSWERED.


There lives in ST. Louis a very sensible
old German named Muller, who keeps a
store He has q daughter, but her name
is not Maud. She does not rake the hay on
q summer day and angle simultaneously
for susceptible old judges Her E1me is
Nina. Not long since she attracted the
attention of one of those unfortunate
creatures called smashers, - so called be-
cause their noses need MASKING about ten
times day He found out where she
lived and next day an unkcmpt urchin
brought Miss Muller q personal note,
marked strictly confidential" The con-
tents Of the note were to the effect that he
loved her for herself alone; also that he
had something very important to COM
municate to her. hence she should meet
him at 10 O'Clock sharp at the corner OF
Biddle and Tenth streets. The following
postscript was added:
"P. S--That my darling may make no
mistake remember that 1 wear light pair
Of pants and a dark cutaway coat In my
right hand 1 will carry small cane and
In my left cigar. Yours forever,
sADoLPHUs.
As the urchin said he was told to wait
for an answer, Miss Muller took the note
to her father and requested him to write
an answer. The old man did SO, stating
that his daughter would be at the appoint
ed place at the time specified, by proxy,
he, her father, having authority to repre-
sent her at the proposed caucus. The post
script read as follows:
