Such exalted characters are just now needed in Alliance circles for leader ship and counsel. Jk S: The Alliance lias not. as many people think, caused a falling off in the mem¬ bership of the Grauge.

Speaking of his Alliance brethren, State Lecturer Collins says: 1 want you all to resolve that you will be full-sized A11 i- ancemeu or quit the order; aud if things are quit not going exactly to suit you, dou’t on that account, but consider that the Alliance is yours and you are de¬ termined to make it serve a righteous purpose. Your voice is as strong as the say of any man in the order, my brother, and it is your bounded duty to speak right out if you see anything going wrong. ' Ihe +*+ new editor of President R. L. Polk’s papei, the Progress-ice Fanner , at Raleigh, N. t’., declares that it does not want the public printing, nor public pat- rouage of any sort. It is an important Alliance reform nap . and means to say just what it ihiuks i upon the economic is- sues before the people: but it intends to make no faction tights, and engage in no personal conflicts with anybody for pri vate hands gains; and and we mean to keep our < ur conscience clean while do¬ ing the work. The .Viamet Gazette (Atchison, I\ tn / says: “The Associated Press dispatche* from day to day have predicted dire things in store ior the Alliance as a re¬ sult from quarrels that were predicted to come off at the national meeting in Flor¬ ida. The meeting has passed off quietlv. however, and the best of feeling between all sections of the country still exists. The thought of this country being united under one flag and harmoniously working for the common good, sends a thrill of dissatisfaction through the veins of the two old parties that is too hard to endure iu silence. The people for once have the interest of the people at heart. DeKalb County Ga.. • Alliance, has adopted the following resolution, unani¬ mously : a M'hereas, The State of Georgia has sufficient scholarship, and "Whereas, The financial statutes of the State is sufficient, and Whereas, we are using school text hooks that are subjects of the- trust. Therefore, He sol red. That we respectfully suggest to the legislature the necessity of publish¬ ing the common school literature of the State, to be published by the State, and made uniform in the State, and furnished to the common schools of the State at the cost of publication. ^ -Jf It would be idle, says the Progresses Farmer, of President Raleigh, N. C., the official organ of Polk, and also the State Alliance, to attempt to disguise the fact that many alliancemen—good and true alliancemen—in thU country enter¬ tain serious doubts about both the desir¬ ability and practicability of some of the measures that have been offered for their acceptance. It is uuwise to brush these men aside as eue- udes of our ord r aud obstructionists to our reforms because ' they do not agree «‘'hu.U|»n al. po.nts.

Resoh&I, That we ask the Alliance and the Alliance press to give this matter due consideration and discussion. Fa rra View (Poiterville, Cuff, i says •State “Although the Farmers Alliance in this has only ben?" organising since about the 1st of June, its active member¬ ship Husbandry outnumbers the Grange or Patioas of nearly three to oue. Not only this, but the Alliance includes in its membership the most able, earnest and active element of the Grange. Few fanners are aware of the great work that is going on around them. Indeed, our attendance at the State Alliance.revealed to us the silent force that has proved such a cataclysm to the old politicil par¬ ties in the East. It will sooa have it- organization more perfect than the po¬ litical machinery of tae State, and will be* doing its own burintss to the extent of drawing into it all classes with whom it does business in th: country. It has but to hold t) its course and the legislature will have to yield to its decrees by the sheer force of uuinbet Old Hayseed is just getting down to business. The New York Tribune is greatly ex¬ ercised over the “Alliance folly’’ in de¬ manding more money throueh the oper¬ ation of the sub-treasury plan. Iu its strictures upon that measure it discloses the usual fact in such cases, au absolute ignorance of its provisions or principles. It is not aware that every document sent to Congress at this session touching fi¬ nance bill recognizes the main feature of this as sound aud practicable. It has forgotten tion, that the recent silver legisla¬ for which it contended so earnestly, contains the warehousing, or, as if pleases to call it, the “pawn shop” fea¬ ture of the sub-treasury p an. The Tribune would do well to ^exchange with some reliable Alliance paper, and keep posted upon current matters relating to the order .—National Economist. THE SITUATION IN KANSAS.

Aside from the internal dissensions in the Alli¬ ance camp over the McGrath-Turner mat¬ ter, the United States senatorship engages the attention of everybody. While the Republicans hoped 'the Turner letter would frustrate and divide the Alliance forces, auct allow them to re-elect Ingalls, it will not have that result. Among a 1 the Alliance members present there seems to be a determination to defeat Ingall / 1 here w ill probably be very little legist r tian before the 26th instant, the day- » senator is elected by a joint ballot of both houses. There is no change in the sena¬ torial situation. Will its, it is conceded, is the leading candidate, but Elder is gaining strength rapidly and it is believed lie will go into the fight with thirty-five votes. If he does he will become a form¬ idable candidate, and it is certaiu that either Y\ iilits, Elder or PefTer, all staunch and leading Alliancemen. will be named by the Alliance senatorial caucus. There are ninety-one Alliance members in the legislature and the proceedings of the body will be watched with interest. ALLIANCE EDUCATION. The strength of Alliance principle and the unyielding force of its demands lie in the plain, incontrovertable facts on which its claims are predicated. r I’h ■ rapid education of the people concerning economic questions of national im- poitance in proof of the substantial foundation upon which such edu eaiion rests. No fine spun theory could or assumption of false doctrine liavtv brought about thi- general desire for information and almost univer¬ sal effort at research without having its real nature exposed and the whole impo¬ sition held up to ridicule and abandoned. Ssch has been the fate and will continue to be the ultimate end of ali economic teachings not based upon truth and jus¬ tice. M he demands of the Alliance have been subjected to the most searching scrutiny and rigid analysis. They have stood the merciless onslaught of ridicule and criticism, and have come out of this trying ordeal brighter, stronger and with a firmer hold upon the intelligence of the people than ever. I hey st aud to-day as an exponent of ult'mate truth unrivalled by any economic proposition that lias challenged public attention during the past quarter of a century. All objections to these demands have been met in a manner calculated to convince those seekiugthe truth, and to coufouud others attempting to confuse and mislead. '1 he lessons of the pest should not go unheeded. This u gent demand for Alliance education should be met by Alliance newspapers, speakers aud lecturers with a determination to furnish the people with the information they desire. To do this w ill require close application and constant study I hose who would be leaders mu-i be teaehei and those who teach must be informed, The day for newspaper slush and nonsense has passed, and the time for facts, reasons and proper deductions has come. Those who assume to build upon the ignorance of the people will fail, while those who recognize their intelligence will surely succeed. The duly of all engaged in this derstood. movement is plain nsists and not easily misun¬ It c in an increased effort in a’i proper methods of education. An honest performance of this duty dur¬ ing the coming year will place the Affiance iu a position absolutely impreg¬ nable as dust the assaults of the politi¬ cian and trickster.

Proceedings of the Second Ses¬ sion of the 51st Congress. On Friday the house went info com¬ mittee of the whole, Mr. Allen, of Michi¬ gan, in the chair, on the private calendar. The first bill on the calendar was one re¬ ferring to the court of claims, the claim of the Citizen’s I ank of Louisiana, grow¬ ing out of the seizure and covering into the United States treasury of certain moneys of the l ank by General B. F. Butler. The amount involved is $215,000. The measure gave rise to quite a long dis- < ussion, it being advocated by Messrs. Blanchard and Boatner, of Louisiua, and opposed and by Messrs. Thomas, of Wisconsin, Grpsvenor. of Ohio. The hour of 5 o', lock having arrived, the bill went over, the committe rose, and the house took a recess until 8 o’clock, the evening session to be for the consideration of private pension bills. The vice-president laid before the sen¬ ate on Saturday, the protest of twenty* three members of the Idaho legislature against allowing Mr. Dulois to take his seat. Referred to the committee on privi¬ leges the committee aid elections. foreign^Wfeations, Mr. afeju-mau, from on re¬ ported a bill to amend the act of Februa¬ ry 1889, incorporating the Nicaragua Canal Company (authorizing the is-ue of bonus guaranteed by llie United States) placed on the calendar and with the ac- companjing report ord< red printed. The senate then r. sumed consideration of the finance bill (or of the anti-contraction bill, as Mr. Sherman termed it iu his motion) and Mr. Morgan continued his speech begun by him Friday, iu support o! the free coinage amendment. Mr. Morgan yielded the floor, temporarily, and Mr. Dawes presented the conference re- port on the bill to carry out, in part, the 'provisions ol the act to divide the Sioux Indian reservation aud, and in response to a question by Mr. Edmunds, made an explanation. sicn lie said that the commis- of which Gen. Crook was the hea l, promised the Sioux Indians, iu the course of negotiation, to use its influence at W ashington for the redress of certain grievances. The commission subsequent- ly met forty representative Sioux Iudians iiom the reservation where tie- present outbreak occurred, to see to it that those assur nces were carried out. The Indian com mi tecs of both houses were also pres¬ ent, and all being together, the bill had been prepared to carry out exactly the assurances as the Indians understood them. The conference report was agreed to, and Mr. Morgan* resumed his speech. During an intermission the pension ap¬ propriation bill and the bill appropriat¬ ing $300,000 for a public building at Providence, R. I., were reported aud placed on the calendar. Mr. Morgan concluded at 4 o’clock, and the bill was laid aside and a message from the presi¬ dent was read, forwarding a memorial of the legislative assembly of Oklahoma for the relief of destitute people of that teri- tory. Referred to the committe on ap¬ propriations. The senate adjourned. In the house, on Monday, Mr. Rogers, of Arkansas, otferred an amendment to the Dockery resolution providing for the appointment of a sp.*c 51 committee of live members to inquire into all the facts and circumstances connected with the silver pools in which the senators and representatives arc alleged to lie inter¬ ested: also as to the alleged purchase and sale of silver prior to aud since the pas¬ sage of the act of July 14, 1899, includ¬ ing, selling the the names of and persons who purchasing or same are owners of twelve million ounces of silver bullion which the United States is now asked to purchase. Mr. Rogers’ amendment was agreed to, and the resolution as amended was agreed to. Mr. Rockwell reported the bill, diplomatic aud consular appropriation and it was placed upon the calendar. 1 he house then, after some sparring as to the limitation of the general debate, which was finally fixed at one hour and a half, went iuto a committee of the whole ior Urrther consideration of army appro¬ Iu the senate, on Monday, among the documents presented and referred, were' v ery many petitions aud memorials, some for and some against the Conger lard bill; also two petitions in favor of the copy¬ right bill. At 2 o’clock the finance bill came up, Mr. Allen, of Washington, be¬ ing entitled to the floor. Mr. Platt made an cording explanation as to why he had not, ac¬ to notice which he gave last Friday, moved to take up the bill relat¬ ing to the copyright. He had supposed that there would be no urgeuey of de¬ bate on the finance bill, but the senator in charge of that bill was anxious that debate upon it should be continued. At the very first opportunity after the finance bill was disposed of, he (Piatt) would ask the senate to consider the copyright bill. Mr. Paddock gave no¬ tice, on the other hand, that without re¬ gard bill, he to the would, copyright bill, or any other at the first opportunity, ask the senate to take up the pure food bill. Mr. Allen then addressed the sen- ate iu advocacy of Mr. Stewart’s amend¬ ment to the finance bill. Mr. Berry also addressed the senate iu support of Mr. Stewart's amendment, Mr. Cockrell made an argument in favor of ihe amendment which was simply, he said, a proposition for the free coinage of sil¬ ver and the restoration of silver to all monet ry functions. Mr. Allison took the floor and the biil was laid aside. After a short executive session the senate adjourned. The senate w ss packed and jammed with people Tucs lay to hear Senator Ingalls speak on silver, icenator &ber- man had the floor mst. uowever, and spoke three hours and shut Mr. Ingalls out completely. Ingalls will, however, get m his speech Wednesday. It is said he will take occasion to attack Mr. Cleveland. Icgaiis is for free coinage. The pie wart free coinage amendment will in all probability pass by a two-thir -s majority. Mr. Aldrich made the most lively speech of the day. He was surprised at' the attitude of tte Democr-.tic seaat rs on the subject, and read to them a portion of Mr. Cleveland's silver letter to A. J. Warner and others, before his inauguration, in relation to the e.lvcr nmstiuw NOTES. Dispatches of Tuesday say: It appears quite evident that the tight on the foiee bill will be resumed a^soon as the silver bill is disposed of.

The legislative appropriation bill was laid before the house Saturday and placed on the calendar. The army appropriation bill was then taken up in committee of the avhole. Senator Stanford, ch Friday, intro- duetd a bill providing for au extension of the executive mansion in accordance with the plans suggested by Mrs. Harrison, at a cost not to exceed $1950,000.

Secretary Wiudom, on Monday, sent to the house of representatives a letter tiansmittiug estimates of appropriations aggregating departments $6,074,063, rcturend by the various of the government ending to complete ihe service of the fiscal year June 30, 1891, for prior years. The three largest items are: For the de¬ partment of justice,-$1,551,038; the navy department, 194. $1,507,867; treasury, $926,- The senate interstate commerce com¬ mittce, on Monday, practically agreed to report ing the favorably the senate bill modify - anti-pooling section of the inter- state commerce act so its to j ermit the limited pooling of traffic.

It au¬ thorizes the president to use troops to in¬ sure fair elections when in his judgment troops may be necessary. The house by a vote of 108 to eighty dis¬ charged the committee on rules from further consideration of the Dockery res¬ olution, asking for an investigation of the alleged silver pool by which certain bankers and members scooped a million.

IN COURT. The Behring Saa Dispute To Be Judicially Determined. 'J he Behring sea sealeries controversy came up iu the United States supreme motion court at which Washing on, on Monday on a has in view the judicial de¬ termination of the dispute between the United States aad Great Britain over the seal fisheries. Joseph II. Choate, iu be¬ half of Thomas Henry Cooper, owner and c'aimant of the British schooner W.- P.

The object is to have the court take up and pass upon the question of the jurisdiction of these waters. BLAINE AFTER THEM. Onr Premier Demands Satis¬ faction from Spain. Considerable excitement has been aroused in Madrid by the news of Secre¬ tary Blaine’s demand for satisfaction for the destruction of the American mission¬ ary property iu the Caroline islands. The government is deeply concerned about it, and liberals now out of power rejoice at the embamusment of ihe min¬ istry. It is feared that the United States may get a pretext for seizing Cuba, and Spain is, at present, in no position foi war, either by land cr sea. AGAINST HANGING WOMEN. A Society Formed in England to Prevent It. A advocate society ha« been formed in England to the repeal of capital punish¬ ment for women. Prejudice ha? gained new force owing to the reports regarding the recent hanging of Mrs. Pearcy f<>r killing Mrs. Hogg and the latter’s child.
