A dispatch of Thursday, from Topeka, says: The Kansas delegation to the National Farmers’ Alliance convention, at Ocala. Fla., has returned. They ail speak in the warmest terms of the hospi- tality of the Southern people, and are encouraged to renew their organization and work in'Kansas. “Ihe call issued by John H. Rice for a national confer- cnce to organize a third party was unau- thorized by the meeting at Ocala, and the Alliance North and South will pay no attention to it.” These were the words of Dr. L. McLallin, editor of The Alli¬ ance Advocate, official organ of the Kan¬ sas Alliance, on his return from the con veution. He spoke w ith earnestness and as one having authority to speak for the great organization be represented. “We are not ready io cons det a thud party movement yet,” c Dtinued Dr. McLallin. It is too early, and mch a movement is premature. Fust, we want relief fr m the burdens that depress agriculture and make slaves out of the men wi o produce that which the people agriculture con- Mime. We want to elevate and secure legislation which will throw protection around this most im- portuat of all icdu tries in this country. ” Dr. McLdlen said he found the colored meu of the eouth aroused on the que-tlous agitated by tho Alliance, and that tlioin- | ands of them would hereafter vote with the whites on the great issues advocated by the National Alliance. “Sectionalism is dead,” he continued. “The negroes bave organ’zcd and the’* will no longer be the willing tools of the bloody shirt republicans and carpet baggers of ti c j south. ” Never was the A1 innee so firmly united in Kansas as at the present time. The leaders who attended the Ocala convention are lookiug after the senatorial contist, which will t ceur on the 27th day of January, Everv effort MrT-'elct Dossible will Lull., be made and’,his by the republican. fact has the leaders of the Alii- .lone put UhSr .toatfon hUdLTn’tTThe ba W Th this: The Alliance has ninety members, or seven more than enough to elect. There is no possible way for Ingalls to be re- elected without the Alliance vote. I * * ' thikd rAitrv talk. Mr. McGrath, president of the Kansas Allian e. in an interview Thursday said, the legislative committee of the Nation J Alliance will meet in Washington some time in February. “Thirty-five states,” be said, “will third be represented at the meet- will ing, and the i arty movement be one of the principal things to be acted upon. This movement said 31 r. McGrath, “will eventually embrace all labor organ- izations in the United States, In fact, all of them are committed to it now, e.\- cept the ‘grange,’ and mo t Farmers’Alii- of the‘gran 8 ers ’ are i»«'ubers of the ance I cannot say when the party will * be organized, but it will be done at the proper time.” A later repokt. A Topeka dispatch says: The follow- ing interview with President McGra h, published Monday, would indie te that the Alliance has, tor ihe present, decided to drop the third party movement. He says: “ The agitation in the South over the Lodge bill precludes the possibi ity of anv iudepent movement at this time. W hile in Ocula I investigated the condi- tions as thoroughly as my limited stay sionthit would permit, and I came to the conclu- more time was needed. It will come about in time, but the time is not thisvear j A d* "reamed legation of Kansas editors which TbrcuU er as from a tour the flouth, having made a thorouch investigation of the furmers* move there, found that a large majority nf southern farmers l»e1ieve in working for their .efornw within the Democratic Editors mnv In Loui-iana, for examp e, thi found few advocates of the third iS“that party mo™. The president of the Alii- State, Thomas S. Adams, secretary of the State boar I of ngricul- ture, in a conversa'ion with a correspond- ^ political will not find fa- w hite p -ople v that Mr. Adams vor.” The editors found 1} exprssed the sentiment pretty 1 enera held by southcree rs, and for this reason they al-o concluded that it would be im¬ possible to do anything with the new movement at this time.
