THEY WANT FREE COINAGE.
Meeting of Alliance Presidents
at Washington.
At the m-eting of the presideats of
Farmers’ Alliances at Washington, Wed¬
nesday evening the following, report was
submi ted: regard it high . ,
“Resolved, That we a
duty enioined upon congress by tho con¬
stitution to provide for an unlimited
coinage of both precious metals, gold and
silver° to the end that the provided peopie with of the
several stu es may be a
circulating medium. We express <>ur
surprise and indignation that this duty
has been so long delayed and neglected,
contrary, as we believe, not only to the
duty we have mentioned, but to. the best
interests of the masses of our people who
are suffering the pangs of poverty and
stagnation of business, caused by a want We
of 'sufficient circulating such medium. delay and
believe and charge that
neglect has been occasioned by an undue
influence in our governmental contract politics the by
th‘ se whose interest it is to
currencv and subserve monopolies and
money lenders.
We, uieiefore, urge upon congress the
demand heretofore made by the National
Farmers’ Alliance and Indu trial Union
for the free and uu united coinage of sil¬
ver upon the same terms and conditions
that go d is now coined. We express our
earnest condemnation of the exercise of
arbitrary power which prevented a fair
consideration of the free coinage b-ill at
the last session of congress, and in this
connection we give expression to the
hope that th i freo coinage bill which
passed the senate during considered tho present in ses¬ the
sion, and is now being and
committee o i coinage, weights mea
sures of the house, shall not bo sup¬
pressed, but shall be speedily reported
back to the h mse aud enacted in ! o law.
With proper re-pect and deference to our
representatives on the committee in the
( house, we say that any efforts to unduly
delay the report on that bill, so as to
prevent action thereon by the house in
the few remaining days of this congress,
will merit, and will receive, still further
condemns ion by the farmers and laborers
of this country.
A NEW PLAN.
At the meeting Thursday, T. S. Adams,
president of the state alliance of Louisi¬
ana, introduced a resolution, which was law
adoped, urging congress to enact a
in accordance with the memorial adop ed
by the Ocala conference in opposition to
the Louisiana state lottery.
Th- r. .port of the committee on plans
was also submitted during alliance the day. In
addition to the various or¬
ganizations already in existence, it con¬
templates the formation of congressional
district alii* rices in each state and t rri
tory where allia ce organizations flourish.
Each congressional district is to have a
lecturer.
Tho 6tate legislative composed committee of is
hereafter to be tho state
president, state executive board, state
lecturer a d the lec.urers of each con¬
gressional d strict.
The congressional legislative committee
is to consist of the president of the con¬
gress’ onol District Alliance, its lecturer,
the president of each County Alliance.
The county legislative council is to be
composed of the county president, county
lecturer and the president of oaoh subor¬
dinate Alliance.
The meeting adjourned Friday, hav¬
ing completed its work. A standing
national legislative committee, consisting
ofL. L. Polk A. E. Cole, of Michigan,
and U. T. Hall, of MissouYi, w as ap¬
pointed, and an Alliance press bureau
was determined upon, to be in charge of
H. F. Ayres, of N rth Carolina.
All of the nlliancemen present at the
meeting state emphatically that there
will be no t ird party movement.
At the meeting Saturday the report of
the committee on resolutions was sub
mit’eJ. It provides that the congress
shall be styled “The Trans-Missouri
Commercial Congress,” and stabs that
the sole purpose of the convention shall
be the consideration of ccon* mic ques¬
tions only. Ihe report urges upon con¬
gress for to provide by adequate the appropria¬
tion f e completion of work on
a deep-water harbor at Galveston as
speedily as pos-ible without inteirup
tion Among other things the report
says; “That we favor the free and
unlimited coinage of silver; that we favor
the reclamation f the arid region west
by the national government; that wc
favor the immediate opening of Ind an
reservations in Okaiahoma and else¬
where.” The committee was unanim us
on all the resolutions. A motion was
made to amend the resolution relating to
the free coinage of silver by adding the
word “product of mines of the Un ited
Slates.” After a short discussion, it was
adopted. The convention then adjourned
to meet in Denver, Col., on May lb, 1891.

A Dramatic Incident
Two men sat near each other in the
Pittsburg railroad station Monday after¬
noon, strangers to one another. They
began talking about the weather, and
then oec asked the other to take a drink,
Within ten minutes these two strangers
had discovered to their amazement that
they were long-lost brothers, Frank and
James Williams, who had not seen or
heard of each other for thirty years. told
They cried over their wine, and each
the story of his life. Frank hid lun
away as a boy from the Pennsylvania world,
farm and had diifted all over toe
iinaily making his fortune in Colorado,
where he no w r sides. James had re¬
mained with the old folks and had seen
them decently buried. Their meeting,
which was purely accidental, found was in a
dramatic as anything to be
