Address to Alliance.

Experience having proved that it is diff
ficult for the farmers, the wealth producers
of the country, to cooperate for n!utual
protection under political organization.
and the experience Of the past having taught
us the necessity of joining ourselves to-
gether for self-defense, as all other kinds
of business have done, in order to keep up
the prices of their wares and merchandise,
and knowing as we do that all fictitious
values established by trusts and combines
are an additional burden upon the farmer,
unless he too can organize to in part coun-
teract such conditions.
We have a very practical Illustration Of
the need of organization in the treatment
we have received from the twine trust. The
twine plant at the state prison was estab-
lished to break the twine trust that had
been levying tribute upon the farmer until
forbearance ceased to be a virtue. The
farmers were then organized. They al
lowed themselves to dsintegrate, and we
find this year that the twine that was made
at our own plant, by prisoners at the state
prison, that we are taxed TO feed end clothe,
was sod to dealers at 61s cents per lb; and
the dealers, in conjunction with the twine
trust, raised the price up to II, H. and in
some cases Is cents per pound, thereby levy
ing a tribute upon the farmers of Mime
sofa to the amount of or cents per
pound.

they had $50 members. its private side tracks
and elevator paid for, and $500 in bank
The prison management refusing to take
their corporate note, they paid cash six and
a half cents per pound and sold 1t to theiI
members at eight cents per pound. Which
compelled all the other dealers at ST. James
to sell for the same price. and, whereas, or

ANOTHER CONTRACT FOR BLOW
HOLES.

When the government opened bids for
armor plates last month it was found
that there were only two firms in the
country that could bid, and they were
the Carnegie and the Bethlehem works.
Both bid the same price, and the work
was divided equally at $4OO a ton. Thus
over $4,000, 900 contract was made! Dur
ing the investigation of the Carnegie
blow-hole plates two years ago, the
testimony of employees showed that the
cost Of making the plates was not much,
if any, above $40 ton! Do you see tho
patriotism? Do you wonder why the
rich who own stock In these and kindred
concerns do not want the government to
own and operate it's own plants? Do
you think that when one contract will
give profit of more that $1,000, 900 that
those who can make II will not use
soap" on those who have the power to
give or withhold? Do you expect Off
cials to attend to public interests when
1t will pay SO much better to attend to
private interests? The people have to

We wish to make correction in the re-
port of the Referendum vote OF the exc
cutive board upon the election of state lee
turer.
We reported that we cast the proxy of
Mr.. Erick Olson for Mr. Olson for state
lecturer. and so notified him. we at once
received a vote from Mr.. Olson casting his
vote for J. b. Dukes, of Minneapolis We
received the letter too late to have the mat
ter corrected before 1t was printed and
cheerfully make this correction now, as Mr..
Olson was much annoyed at being recorded
as having voted for himself even by proxy
We do this much to relieve Mr.. Olson S
embarrassment and modesty, but am glad
that it does not change the results.
Mr.. Olson will make an energetic and
capable state lecturer. He is already pre-
pairing to make a personal campaign of
every county in the state. We would
therefore like to have every county write
to this office who desire the presence of
our state lecturer and we will try and ar
range a date and have Mr.. Olson call and
put the alliance in active operation in
every county by the appointment of coun-
ty organizers, and the organization Of new
alliances at every railway station and the
revival of all the old ones.

Omaha Compact No Compact.

Rip Van Wrinkle POpulists are asking the
meaning of this fuss about national noml-
tions. They are to wake up such men from
opiates administered by the plutocratic
press, and men who would not call 1t folly
to nominate this year if they were to be
the nominees. AS Gen. Tracy himself rev.
erences the votes of 81 fusionists (already
broken) more than he does the hundreds
of thousands of votes he himself counted
in favor of nominating this year, we cannot

j. T. Hanley-Dear Sir: 1t seems that F.
ing to make us believe that the twine could
not be got on account Of the war. Now is
1t possible that they think that we are all
fools; that they can pull the wool over our
eyes? Don't we know that there was lots
of twine carried over from last year; and
all the raw fibre was go. and made into
twine before the war commenced? No, it
is simply dabolical swindle to rob the
farmers (and In one way it serves them
right. They ought to have kept the Alli-
ance up, and combined so they could de-
mand justice. Some tell me We could not
do anything with the Alliance without go
ing into politics. l say we want to be
free from politics. But we want to form
such a strong alliance of farmers and la
boring men, and then We can support any
party that will give us just laws. Yes, we
can force them to give US justice if We
combine into A F. A. & l. L. and vote
for men that will not betray us as the
present ones have done in regard to the
Irvine and other things too numerous to
mention.
l thought that twine plant at Saltwater
was built especially for the farmers of Min
nesOta. Then what right did they have to
dispose of that twine to the trusts. They
could have made twine enough there for the
whole state; but no, it had to be run so
it would not hurt the trust 1t was nothing
but tomfoolery from the beginning and the
party that runs the state affair is owned
by the trust.
Yes, the Alliance has a great work on
hand; the Legislature meets again next WIN
ter, and if we don't combine and let our
strength be felt We are in danger Of losing
all we gained these many years. There is
the wheat trust, tWine trust and many 9TH

DeWey's Remarks,

Standing on the quarterback of the
Baltimore yesterday, and gazing at the
American flag over Fort Santiago
within the walled city, Admiral Dewey
said
Il hope it floats there forever, for
ever. 1t is strange that we have wrest-
ed an empire from those pepole, and
that with the loss of only a few men.
Our navy did most remarkable work.
If l were religious man, and l hope
l am, l should say that it was the hand
of God. remember, when we engag-
ed the feet, seeing shells fired directly
at us, and do not understand under
heaven why we escaped.
Then we came up here in the Olym-
pia and sent them an ultimatum. IL
three letters that were written by Con-
sui Williams I told them if they fired
another shot l would destroy their
city. l demanded the surrender of
some small vessels that scurried into
o@iS, anu "uICu DeIleNe, were IOr-
pedo boats, and I asked the Joint use
Of the. cable.We were close in and
alone, but they did not fire, and we
never did. o.
Il am proud Of these men under me
and proud to be their leader They
are all efficient. l gave up the Olym-
pia and sent her to Hong Kong, and
came on the Baltimore. Here / find
everything as efficient as on the Olym-
pia. l am sending all of the squadron
up to be cleaned, and have asked for
battles-.p and armored cruiser. l
do not intend to go home, unless it is
absolutely necessary for there is much
work still to be done here. / do not
want to go until it is all over. The
truth has not been told about this
place. 1t is not so hot, and the wealth
er is much better than has been as
serted. In the feet we have less sick
ness than on an ordinary cruise"

The Old Reliable,

The goosebone has not come for
ward yet with a forecast of next win
ler's weather; the SQUIRREL has failed
to report according to intutive science,
and the thickness of the corn husk has
not been observed. The rag weet as
a weather prognosticator, is the first
in the field. 1t is unusually tall this
season. The theory is, that the higher
the altitude the rag weed reaches, the
severer the following winter The
wild geese may take their flight far
to the south, the tortoise hiernate deep
into the bowels of the earth and still
we may have mild winter but when
the rag weed grows abundantly tall il
means deep snow. According to folk
lore nature provides a high rag weed
so tnat the seed will be above the
snow, thus providing sustenance for
the birds.-Times Star.
