“And when it is all over, and our

ing a larger field, we have left uu-

and that none of it is fit for our Mas
ter’s eye were it not for the softening
shadow of the cross."—Edward Gar

gets the following off on Reed's Pitts

It is said that fools and children tell

of words. In the report of his Pitts
burg rant is found this pearl of
thought: “Hanging on to the old
traditions is the business of the demo
cratic party, and it docs that business
well.” Yes, it hangs on to the old
Jeflersoniau traditions with an iron
grip, and when the g. o. p. is laid to
rest in the grave which Quay, Reed
& Co., arc digging for it the party of
immutable principles will lie found in
“that business" still. .

purposes of the alliance, and asking
for Mr. Cleveland’s views thereon.
the declaration of purposes.
The foliowing is the declaration of
purpose, and Mr. Cleveland’s reply:
Profoundly impressed that we, the
Farmer's alliance, united by slrong
and faithful tics of financial and home
interests, should set forth our declara
lion of intentions, we therefore
Resolve (c strive to secuie the es
tablishment of r ght and justice to
ourselves and our posterity ; lo labor
for the education of the agricultural
classes in the science of economical
government in a strictly non partisan
spirit; to endorse die motto, “In
things essential, unity; in all thing:
charity lo secure the purity of the
elective franchise, and to induce all
voters to intelligently exercise for the
enactment and execution of laws which
will express the most advanced public
sentiment upon all questions involving
the interests of laborers and farmers;
to develop a 1 letter state, mentally,
morally, socially and financially ; to

widows and educate the orphans; to
exercise charity toward offenders; to
construe die words and purposes in
their most favorable light, granting
honesty of purpose and good inten
tions to others, and lo protect the
principles of the alliance unto death.
MR. CLEVELAND’S REPLY.
Mr. Cleveland’s reply was:
March 24, 1S90.—J. A. Hill,
Corresponding Secretary—Dear Sir:
I have received your letter, accompa
nied by a copy of the declaration of
principles ol the Farmers Alliance.
I see nothing in this declaration that
cannot be fully endorsed by any man
who loves his country; who believes
that the object of our government
should be the freedom, prosperity ahd
happiness of all our people; and who
believes that justice and fairness to all
are necessary conditions to its useful
administration.
It has always seemed to me that
the farmers ol the country were espec
ially interested in the equitable ad
justment ot our tariff system. The
indifference they have shown to that
question, and the case with which they
have been led away from a sober con
sideration of their needs and their
rights, as related to this subject, have
excited my surprise.
Struggle as they might, our farmers
must continue to be the purchasers
and consumers of the numberless
things enhanced in cost by tariff reg
ulations. Surely they have a right to
say that this cost shall not be in
creased for the purpose of collecting
unnecessary revenue, or to give undue
advantage to domestic manufacturers.
The plea that our infant industries
need protection, wnich thus impover
ishes the farmer and consumer, is, in
view of our natural advantages and
skill, and the ingenuity of our people,
a hollow pretext.
Struggle as they may, our farmers
cannot escape the conditions which
fix the price ol what they produce and
sell, according lo the rates which
prevail in foreign market, flooded with
the competition of countries enjoying
a freer exchange of trade than we.
The plausible presentation of the
blessings of a borne market should
not deceive our depressed and im
poverished agriculturists. There is no
home market for them which does not
take its instructions from the seaboard,
and the seaboard transmits the word
ol foreign markets.
Because my conviction that there
should be a modification of our tariff
laws arose principally from an appre
ciation of the wants of the vast army
of consumers, comprising our farmers,
our artisans and our workingmen, and
because their condition has led me to
protest against the present imposition,
I am especially glad to see these asso
ciations of fellow-countrymen, arousing
themselves to the importance of tariff
reform.
Yours, very truly.
Gkovf.r Cleveland.

Bounties for Farmers.
Washington, May 12 —Mr. Stew
art of Georgia said to-day; “While I
do not believe in bounties, I am going
to see whether the republicans want
the farmers to have them, and to that
end I shall give them n chance to vote
on nn amendment which I shall pro
pose to the tariff bill giving a bounty
of 1 cent a pound for the production
ot cotton. If the sugar producer is
is to get a bounty on bis crop the
cotton grower should hnvc one too,
