There is but one honest answer to the question and tlial, emphatic- plly no. No, this is no time for ex periment or change. Let us learn a lemon from otirrn- cmioH. If frequent change of public men had been tlm policy of the re- publican party Neerelary Blaine would never have written his twen ty-five years’ exporlenee in congress.

Signed izipgf i his committee, D<nf*t you think sutdi action on the part of the county alliance a hit of supereroga tion? What would yon think of the Odd Fellows’ organization at Adel or the Knights of Pythias organiza tion at Tifton if one.or,'both of thorn should adopt a resolution requesting your Mr. John I). 'Patterson, presi dent Of the Berrien county alliance, to call a muss meeting of the citizens for tliu purpose of reorganizing the county alliance’s roll of officers, himself included? Don’t you think il would he a hit more than the du ties imposed upon such organizations by their charters, yea supererogatory? The Berrien county alliance is guil ty of just Hiirdi supererogation when it undertakes to supervise or cut out work for the county democratic exec utive committee. The two organiza tions lire separate and distinct, both in origin and purpose) hence; neither is hound to respect the resolutions or edicts of tlie other. You say the comity alliance be Moved that a majority of the commit tee was not in accord with the senti tneiits held by the musses of the peo ple of the county. Don’t you think this is uu assumption of a fact with out proof, when tlie alliance repre sents not exceeding one-third of the voters of tlio county? Upon wlmt does the county alliance base Us be lief? Has the masses of the people, the county democracy, applied to the nonnly alllitiieo for assistance lo over throw the creature it 1ms created? If so, we have never heard of if and we think wu are a pretty clever news gal heror. The truth ip, friends, llie alliance is not, a political organization; and, indeed, its very nature forbids that, it should be. When it started nut on llie political warpath it got into deep water, and the further II goes in tlint, direction the nearer it gets to drown ing depth. We advocated the alli ance denliiratioii of principles long before it reochod Berrien comity or either of yon hecame members, and know flint partisan politics were to he eschewed by llie members thereof, uiiil everyone upon entering the threshold of the organization were iissuriKt that it would not interfere with their religious nr political creeds. But, for the sake of argil-' mint, say (lint the adoption of the Ocala platform by t he order was per- inissablu by the alliance deolnrulioti of principles and constitution; even then don't you think it is time chough tor the democnicy In nrcepl llie demands as a part-of its creed Thomas .'.
