prosperous-looking deal, but the farm
ers began to suspect that there was a
very oleaginous colored gentleman
somewhere in the neighborhood of the
wood-pile. They regarded i. as a lit
tie singular that prominent member
of their State organization should be
on such friendly terms with a grain
gambler. pure and simple. 1t soon
became evident to both Mr.. Hall and
Mr.. Francis that the farmers pull, in
stead of landing either of them in the
Office he coveted, would break trace.
Accordingly. each became vehement
and vociferous in denying that there
was any political understanding be-
tween them. The suspicious of the
brethren of Mr.. Hall were allowed to
sleep for time.
Through the influence of Mr.. Hall
and other Alliance leaders, farmers
did not insist in 1892 On making their
financial views the prominent feature
of the campaign. Tariff was put to
the front, with Free Coinage a good
second. Mr.. Hall, through his pro-
testations that he was true to the prin-
ciples of the Alliance, succeeded in
getting into Congress. 1t soon began
to be darkly limited that Mr.. Hall was
beginning to experience a change of
heart on the coinage question, and that
his relations with the Administration
were closer and warmer than those
which bound him to his constituents.
Rumors of this kind began to increase
in the old Second District. At the
State Convention of 1894. while still
vociferating for Free Coinage, his vote
was cast against making that an issue
in the State platform. When he found
that his constituents were becoming
suspicious of him once more, he tele-
graphed that his heart was not chang
ed toward his first love; that he would
take off his coat-or shirt, if it was
necessary-to work for Free Coinage.
His constituents gave him another
chance, but he had tasted of the sweets
of Administration favor.
The need of his friend Francis had
become great, and at last it was an
nounced that, like the pious deacon
who attended horse race, Bro. Hall
had been converted hindside before.
We regret that MIR. Hall, seduced by
the Establishments of power, has seen
fit to turn his back on those who have
honored him. He might have been
favored and powerful representative
of the people. AS Cuckoo he sinks
into deserved oblivion.

Piles. The first impulse of Baptist is
to stand by the.creed of his church as

the Association declare that immersion
is not necessary and is no longer an
integral part of Baptist Doctrine. how
long will the brethren remain in the
church? The Republic may have had an
idea that its scheme would throw cold
water on the silver movement, and at
the same time assure the gold standard
people that they could do as they liked
with impunity, without alternating the
silver brethren from the organization.
The Republic can rest assured that the
silver brethren will prove as loyal to
the party as the Germans. the Brices,
the Hills, the Raynors, the Clevelands,
and others of that kidney, who have
set at defiance the will of the party
even as loyal as the Francis and Maj

Mr.. Halls Transformation.

In 1890 and 1891 the Farmers Alliance
bid fair to become a disturbing factor
in the politics of this country. About
this time U. S. Hall became one of the
State organization, and eventually its
head. Mr.. Hall represented to his
brethren that their wisest course
would be to espouse the cause Of the
Democratic party, for the reason that
the principles and traditions of that
party were practically the same as the
platform of the Alliance. This most
of its members conceded to be true,
and for that reason most of its mem
bers cast their votes for the candidates
of the Democracy. The sweeping VIC
tory of 1892 may be attributed to the
influence of that organization, as much
as any other cause.
Shortly after the Alliance began to
gather strength. David r. Francis,
then Governor of this State, began to
cast about for a political helpmate
among the farmers, with whom he was
not in very good odor. 1t was at this
time he began to cast sleeps eyes at
MIR. Hail. He found Barkis more
than willing. The gossips OF the day
had it that a snug little combination
had been formed between the Governor
of the State and the President OF the
Alliance, by which the farmers and
the plutocrats were to pull together,
by which the Governor was tc slip in
to the United States Senate, and the
President aforesaid was to occupy the
Governors vacant chair.
In the beginning this was very

The Republic is SO much exercised
upon the question of party loyalty that
It has sent kilograms to leading news
papers all over the State, to ascertain
whether silver Democrats will abide
by the decision of the National Con-
veution. Silver Democrats have al
ways been loyal to the principles of
the party. But how is it with the
other SIDE? Why could our goldbug
friends in Congress not be persuaded
to enter into caucus in 1898 to settle
the silver question inside party lines.
30 far as party action in that Congress
was concerned? Why would not the
eastern contingent submit to the ex-
pressed will of the party upon the tar
If question:? Why was it that the aid
OF the Sergeant-at-Arms had to be
called in to create quorum to carry
through the repeal of the odious cleo
ton laws? Why is it that the party
cannot repeal the ten per cent. tax
upon State banks-a measure the par
ty stands unequivocally pledged to
abrogate? Party authority is pow
erless in these matters, because of the
refusal of the goldites and their con-
freres to be bound by party laws. Sill
yer Democrats are loyal, have been
loyal. and will continue to be so.
When Democratic editors replied to
the Republics telegram they simply
expressed the innate loyalty of true
Democrats. There is one thing they

ton, on the principle that the latter
gentleman can't get lick amiss, we
regret that it was not upon other
grounds than the Secretary's failure to
distribute garden seeds. The Agri-
cultural Department is nuisance and
unworthy republican form of gov
eminent. If it is the right thing to
have an Agricultural Department at
Washington, supported by taxation,
why not Blacksmithing Department,
a Carpenters Department, a Sawmill-
ing Department, Mining Department,
an Electrical Department-andso on,
to infinity? In this way might be
made Cabinet majestic in size, with
room for a hundred cuckoos. The
Agricultural Department was institut-
ed to '.please the farmer" on the sup
position that he is a dod-gasted fool,
and to make a number of ''soft places
for lot of people who know and are
expected to know as much about farm
ing as a hog does of Sunday. The
whole thing is a miserable humbug
and useless burden upon the tax
payers-farmers and all other laborers
alike. But while it endures. we pre-
sumo it is the duty of the officials in it
to follow the law and keep distribut-
ing garden seeds to those supposed to
be dependent upon its parental over
sight.

that the success of the party in this

PERHAPS the brainiest man the Re-
publican party has had identified with
it since Lincoln was James G. Blaine.
He saw clearly the effect of Mckinley
ism and warned his party against it.
He endeavored TO extract the sting OF
the Mckinley bill by introducing a
reciprocity clause, which was diamet-
rically opposed to the protective idea,
and, if extended. would have utterly
destroyed it. From the day he array
ed himself against the Mckinley Bill
his political doom was sealed, so far
as the Tariff Barons were concerned.
His scheme of reciprocity, which one
never hears of now, was NORWOOD
and gall to them, and was wiped out
as soon as they could get at it, because
its logical result would have been the
destruction of all tariff laws.

HORIZONTAL WILLIAM has spoken at
last. If his silence was golden, we re-
greet to say that his speech is not sill
yer. In a conversation at Chicago
last Sunday, when asked what he con-
sidered the prospects of reaching a
condition CT mutual tolerance in Dem
ocratic party councils, Mr.. Morrison
said:
81 can not state it as fact, but /
most pronounced silver Democrats in
the South are gradually reaching the
conclusion that, for higher party and
public reasons, they should be willing
to yield something to party unity. /
believe the silver Democrats in Missou-
ri and Arkansas are more bitter and
implacable than in any other of the
slave States, and in Arkansas the con-
dition grows largely out of the conflict
ing Senatorial ambitions of two able
men. who are outdoing each other in
organizing a sentiment.
From the above it appears that the
platform of the Honorable William r.
Morrison is one of concession. What
is it that he would have silver men
yield on the coinage question? Mr..
Morrison should become more definite
and certain. If he is in a receptive
frame of mind as to the Democratic
nomination for the Presidency, he
should be entirely frank and take the
people fully into his confidence. He
should clearly set forth the concessions
which in his opinion silver men should
make. The people are tired of subter-
fuge and double dealing. They are
sick of platitude and lap-doodle. They
want no more platforms that mean any
thing or nothing. They would prefer
straightout goldbug on a goldbug
platform, to straddler on platform
of glittering generalities, manufactured
for the sole purpose of catching votes.
The Free Coinage of Silver is a simple
issue: you must be either for or
against it. Mr.. Morrison is perhaps
in favor of a Free Coinage law, but
agin its enforcement. We would re-
mind Mr.. Morrison that the people of
this country have never taken kindly
to either straddles or straddlers-for
the straddler never amounts to anything
and the straddle never means anything.
Mr.. Morrison should cease to be ar
boreal in his habits; he should take
ground on one side of the fence or the
other. Turning from the doubtful re-
marks of Col. Morrison to the words of
Governor Stone, which we here append,
is like leaving the foul air of heated
room for the refreshing breeze of the
open field:
81 am informed that Col. Morrison
says that the Southern silver Demo
Gratis have reached the conclusion that
they should yield some things to party
harmony. 1t would be interesting to
know what conclusions the Wall Street
contingent has reached on the same
subject. l am for party harmony. 1t
is greatly to be desired, but 1 am ALEC
first for the maintenance of party prin-
ciples. Whilst / stand ready to do
everything honorable and right to
produce complete harmony, l am un-
willing, even under this pleasing and
heavenly song of harmony, to surren-
der those party convictions for which
have bastled for lifetime"

the building. We are dependent on TIE

and desire to state that we do not
expect to get the necessary amount by
large donations, but by the mite from the
