PEFFER’S VIEWS.
THE ALLIANCE SENATOR FROM
KANSAS SPEAKS OUT.
Policy of the Allance as Regards
the Issues of the Day.
W. A. Puffer, the recently elected
United States Alliance senator from
Kansas, speaks to readers of Frank Les
lie’s Illustrated Newspaper as follows: _
“The farmers’ a liance and industrial
unio iis made up of farmers and rural
working people, with country preachers,
school teachers, physicians and editors of
agricultural papers. Primarily social,
women and young persons of both sexi s
over the age of 10 years are eligible to
membetship. It is, also, semi-religious,
for everv member must be a ‘believer in
the existence of a Supreme Being,’ and all
the meetings arc opened and clostd with
prayer. Its intention is—‘On earth peace
and good-will toward men.’ And while
the first of its seven declarations of pur
poses is ‘to labor for the education of the
agricultural classes in the science of eco
nomical government in a strictly non
partisan spirit’—which means that no
partisan discussions are permitted in the
councils of the order—still the alliance is
intensely political. It could not be oth
erwise and attain the objects sought.
Proposing to educate its members in the
science of economical government, it
must discuss all matters pertaining to ad
ministration of the laws. Its second dec
laration asserts a demand for ‘equal rights
to all and special privileges to none."
“It was not intended originally, nor is
it now, that the alliance should become a
political party, nor that it shou d form a
nucleus about which a party should col
lect. It was expected that all the re
forms demanded by the alliance could be
and would be wrought out by the machi
nery of existing parties, or that a new
party would be born.
“Appeals were made to leaders of the
parties in power, but no attention was
paid to them, and the allisnco members
set about seriously to build up a party of
the people, to be composed of voters who
w ere agreed upon a policy to bring about
the changes needed, these voters coming
from other bodies of organized labor
and from all existing political parties.
The result in Kansas was the |>eople’B
party. In other sta'es different methods
of proceeding were adopted; in none of
them, however, was a separate and dis
tinct party formed, though the principles
advocated and the objects sought by
organized farmers in all the states are the
same.
“The alliance membership are agreed
upon a few fundamental propositions re
lating to land, labor, transportation and
money, and they want legislation upon
those subjects. They want more money
in circulation; they want the government
to issue all the money directly, and get it
to the people without the intervention of
interest-charging agencies; they want
money made plenty and put out at low
rates of interest; they want the govern
ment to take charge of the money of the
country, so that its benefits may be en
joyed by the people upon fair terms and
on equal terms—the same rate of interest
on the same amount of money for the
same length of time; they want trans
portation controlled by the government
in the public interest, so it may be cheap,
safe and equal in its burdens and bene
fits ; they want a readjustment of our land
system, that all the public lends may be
gathered in speedily and disposed of to
settlers under the homestead law; they
want alien ownership of lands übolisbed
in some equitable way; they want to
secure for the people the largest po sible
measure of benefit from the unused lands
of the country; they want legislation
that will cause vacant lands to bear their
full share—acre for acre—of the public
burdens resulting from taxation; they
want homesteads protected in the interest
of citizens and their families; in short, ns
to these great matters first, aud as to all
ielated matters afterward, the Alliance
wants such legislation as will equalize
burdens aud benefits of government, af
fording equal protection to all the citi
zens, destroying the influence of the
money power, suppressing combinations
against freedom of trade, and placing the
debtor on terms equal with his creditor.
“This uprisiug of the people comes
from a belief that the universal depression
in agriculture is directly traceable to
vicious legislation; that our financial
nolicy is ruinous to the masses ■ that as
its legitimate fruit the rich aro becoming
richer and the poor poorer, while the
wealth of the country is fast passing into
the hands of a comparatively small num
ber of jwrsons. One-half the tilled
lands of the civilized world aro
mortgaged to less than 1 per cent
of the adult male population; eighty
per cent of German farms are pledged for
debt; one-third of American farms are
under mortgage to non-resident and for
eign capitalists; half the city real estate
is encumbered in the same way and to the
same extent; half the municipalities—
counties, cities, townships—in ali the
west and south are under mortgage to
bond-holders. The country is mortgaged
to death, and 68,000,000 people arc com
pelled to get along with a money circula
tion of $lO per capita. It is believed that
our national banking law intrusts a dan
gerous power to bankiog corporations. It
is known that, while the act was passed to
‘provide a national currency,’ the banks
are retiring that currency at the rate of
$32,500 000 a year, and that no provision
has been made or proposed by our law
makers to restore that amount, or any part
of it, to the circulation of the country.
In addition to all this, our railroad com
panies are in debt to s ock and bonds five
times as much as they are worth, aud the
peojtle are compelltd to pay, in exorbi
tant traffic charges, the interest on this
excessive indebtedness besides dividends
to the stockholders. Briefly, rich men and
great corporations are gambling on the
substance of the people.
“What, then, is to be done? The an
swer is pregnant, but it is plain and im
pel ative. The people must take charge
of their own business. All pubbe func
tions mu‘t be exercised by agencies ap
pointed by the government. The issu
anct of money and the transportation of
property are both public functions.
Thin let the government issue all the
people’s money and supply all their pub
lic transportation. Abolish banks of
issue, let money go from the govern
ment to the people directly, and let the
charges f> r its use be no more than what
it actually costs to handle the money.
That is the rule in postal matters, and in
all other functions of the government.
That would bring interest rates down tc
what the people could affordto pay, the
ratee would be uniform in all parts of
the country, and it would be to the inter
est of every owner of money to keep it
in circulation promoting productive in
dustries. Instead of investing in mort
gages and draining out the substance of
the people, owners would put their mon
ey at work to make it j>ay its way,
just as men do with their farms and their
ships.
“Transportation is part of the produc
tive force of the people, and for that
reason it must be made cheap and uni
form. As it is now, wc pay from five to
ten times as much for our transportation
as it would cost if the people owned
their own means of conveyance. In that
case the cost of the “plant” would not
figure in tho estimate of cost of trans
portation any more than the cost of a
public road or a court house is charged
up to the people every time they use
these things, which were made for their
convenience.
“The Farmer’s Alliance is striking for
that equal liberty and exact justice to
which the people arc entitled. They
want burdens and benefits justly distrib
uted ; they want to destroy the influence
of the money power in legislation; they
aim to get rid permanently of every sort
of gambling in the products of labor;
they will wage relentless war on all class
legislation, and they will not be content
until trade among our people was free as
the air we breathe and the water we
driuk. The Farmers’ Alliance has set
out to dethrone money aud emancipate
labor.”
ALLIANCE NOTES.
NEWS OF THE ORDER FROM
ALL SECTIONS.
Items of Interest to Alliance
men Everywhere.
The Orange County Farmer, of Port
Jarvis, N. Y., thinks that the Farmers’
Alliance, and all ti e e:lier organizations
of farmers, nro giving the politicians a
deal of uneasuess, aud adds: “That is a
good sign. Let the work go on. Funn
els must meet and talk over their griev
ances, and demand reparation. They
must not only demand it, but tlicy must
go the polls and get it. It can be se
cured in one way, if not in another.”

The Ileedy Fork Alliance, of Green
ville county, S. C , have resolved to
“plant one-third less cotton this year and
raise more supplies,” nnd have asked the
president of the State Alliance to reeotn
mend that the members of every eub-
Alliance shall adopt tho samo policy.
Several County Alliances in Georgia have
passed similar resolutions, and the feel
ing in favor of this policy oppears to be
wide-spread.
*
* *
State Alliances are now rapidly in
creasing, some as entirely new organiza
tions, while others, as in Arkansas, come
from the consolidation of other State
farmers’ organizations. Tho State Alli
ance of lowa is soon to be reorganized;
Maine and other Eastern States will fol
low not far behind. One fact is most
gratifying—that the Grange, which has
covered most of these States to the ex
clusion of all other organizations, does
not seem to weaken in its membership
by the progress of the Alliance eastward.
This means, probably, that the Giangers
who join the Alliance remain in the
Grunge nlso. Then the Alliance gathers
up a great many who have never been in
the Grange.

Senator John B. Gordon Ims been
initiated as an Aliianceman. Tho exer
cises took place a few days ago at the
Alliance ball at Mason’s crossing in De-
Knlb county, Ga. The ball was crowded
with members of tho Alliance and a few
prominent visitors. After the initiation,
the General made a conservative speech
in which lie declared, “that tho objects
nnd aims of the order were such that
everybody and anybody could endorso its
principles. He lmd advocated them for
years and he expected to continue to ad
vocate them. He felt perfectly at home
among the A 1 ianccmcn and pledged
himself to do all that was in his power
to better the condition of tho men who
spend their lives in toiling on the farm.”

I Carriage Nomenclature.
The popular hansom derives its distin
guishing title from a certain Mr. Han
som.
The brougham, which was first used
by the famous Lord Brougham, took ils
title from that nobleman.
Landau, a ci'y in Germany, was the
locality in which was first made the style
of vehicle b aring tl at name.
Hacks or.ginally were termed hackney
coaches, because they were drawn by
hackney—a name applied to easy-going,
safe pacing horses.
William IV., who, prior to becoming
king of England, bad been the Duke of
Clarence, gave the latter name to bis fa
vorite mode of conveyance.
The old fashioned gig was given that
name from its peculiar jumping and
rocking motion, the word bei g taken
from the French giguc, signifying a jig,
or a lively dance.
The term coach is derived from the
French cocbe, a diminutive form of the
Latin conchula, a shell, in which form
the body of such conveyances was origi
nally fashioned.
Coupe is French In origin, being de
rived from the verb cooper (coopay), to
cut. This was considetod an appropri
ate designation because it greatly resem
bled a coach with the front part, cut off.
The particular form of carriage known
as the tilbury—at ono time very fash
ionable, but now seldom seen —was so
called from a spotting gentleman of Lon
don who rejoiced in tho cognomen of
Tilbury.
Seldom, if ever, is Iho full term omni
bus applied to those lumbering vehicles.
With the characteristic brevity of Eng
lish speaking races the title has been
changed to lus. These were first seen
in Paris in 1827, the original name being
nothing more than the Latin word signi
fying “for all.
The word sulky, as applied to a wheeled
cnnveyauce, had its origin iu the fact,
that when it first appeared the person
who saw it considered that none but a
sulky, selfish man would ride in such an
affair, which afforded accommodation to
but one individal. The strange title
was never changed.
Cab is an nbreviation of the Italian
capriola, which is changed to cabriolet
(eabriolay) in French. Both words have
a common derivative—cabriole—signify-
ing a goat’s leap. The exact reason for
giving it this strange appellation is un
known, unless because of the lightness
and springiness of the vehicle iu its
original form.—Detroit Free Press.
To Tell the. Age of Horses.
The agricultural editor of Tho Timcs-
Dcmocrat says: The other day we met a
gentleman from Alabama, who gave us a
piece of information ns to ascertaining the
age of a horse nfter it has passed the
ninth year which was quite new to us,
nnd will be, we are sure, to most of «ur
readers. It is this: After a horse is nine
years old a wrinkle comes in the eyelid,
at the upper corner of the lower lid, and
every year thereafter he has one well
defined wrinkle for each year of his age
over nine. I», for ins ance, a horse has
three’wrink’es, he is twelve; if four,
thirteen. Add the number of wrinkles
to nine and you will always get at it. So
says the gentlema", and he is confident it
will never fail.

Let’s reason together.
Here’s a firm, one of the
largest the country over, the
world over; it has grown, step
by step, through the years to
greatness —and it sells patent
medicines I—ugh !
“ That’s enough! ”
Wait a little—
This firm pays the news
papers good money (expen
sive work, this advertising !)
to tell the people that they
have faith in what they sell,
so much faith that if they can’t
benefit or cure they don’t want
your money. Their guarantee
is not indefinite and relative,
but definite and absolute —if
the medicine doesn’t help,
your money is “on call.”
Suppose every sick man
and every feeble woman tried
these medicines and found
them worthless, who would be
the loser, you or they ?
The medicines are Doctor
Pierce’s “Golden Medical Dis
covery,” for blood diseases,
and his “ Favorite Prescrip
tion,” for woman’s peculiar ills.
If they help toward health,
they cost SI.OO a bottle
each! If they don’t, they
cost nothing /
Have You a Cough?
Have You a Cold?
Or Consumption?
Cherokee Remedy of
Sweet Gum and Mullein
WILL CURE YOU!
Ask your Druggist or Merchant for it. Take nothing else.

“German
Syrup”
J. C. Davis, Rector of St. James’
Episcopal Church, Eufaula, Ala.:
“My son has been badly afflicted
with a fearful and threatening cough
for several months, and after trying
several prescriptions from physicians
Which failed to relieve him, he has
been perfectly restored by the use of
two bottles of Bo-
An Episcopal schee’s German Syr
up. I can recom-
Rector. mend it without
hesitation.” Chronic
severe, deep-seated coughs like this
are as severe tests as a remedy can
be subjected to. It is for these long
standing cases that Boschee’s Ger
man Synxp is made a specialty.
Many others afflicted as this lad
was, will do well to make a note of
this.
J. F. Arnold, Montevideo, Minn.,
writes: ] always use German Syrup
for a Cold on the I.ungs. I have
never found an equal to it —far less
a superior. ®
