The al- liance says: ‘This means 1,800 home- steads transferred from the hands of so many industrious families to the hands of capitalists, either domestic or foreign.” The alliance lays the whole trouble at the door of the law making power at Washington City, where it properly belongs. ————— Secretary of State Lesueur in an interview published in the Republic says: “The matter that has been generally discussed at the capitol the last few days is the result of the municipal elections throughout the state, especially in the cities where the Australian system of voting was in force.

And it is with pleasure and grati that I look on the satisfactory results of my efforts in improving hong that has proved valuable sellers.

We believed that the origin- ators of this movement appreciated this when they incorporated into their constitution, guaranteeing to each member the right to his politi- cal and religious views. The grange is a fair example of this. It came up and flourished as a green bay tree until scheming politicians in- gratiated themselves into the organ- ization and when the grange at- tempted toruna ticket it proved a death blow to that order. Granting, for the sake of argu- ment, that the Farmers Union is strong enough to elect a ticket, what benefit would it be to the or- der? The county officers are not a legislative body. They cau not change the laws now on our statute books. A vast majority of the men who have filled our county oflices have been farmers, elected from the farm and moved to the county seat. Cana third party do more? Then what different course do they expect the men they elect to pursue? Do they expect that they willrefuse one cent of the salary guarantged them by law? Will they give any better service for the same compensation? -No, they can do no more than men elected from any other political par- ty—obey the laws set out for their guidance. If the laws are at fault then the Representative, State Senator U. S. senators and congress- men are the only officers the Far- mers Union can possibly have any interest in, and they want farmers elected to represent then in the generalassembly. Let us consider the class of men the democrats have been electing to these offices for the past sixteen years. Hon. John B. Newberry and Maj. J. N. Bradley, of Bates; J. H. Britts,of Henry,F. E. Bybee, of Cass county, were elected successively to the state senate. Of the above only Dr. Britts is a pro- fessional gentleman, the others were all farmers, and no more honest, competent or trustworthy men can be found in the state. Those elected to the legislature were J. H. Sullens, J. N. Bradley, Levi Moler, (two terms) J. N. Ballard, A. Henry, J. H. Hinton, John B. Newberry. Of the above all were farmers with the exception of Henry and Hinton; that is wehad farmer representatives 12 years out of 16. Then wherein comes the grievance to the farming class in Bates county? Then again, why the necessity for a new party when they could get all they would ask, in reason of the democratic par- ty, which party has ever advocated, and its national, state and county platforms embody the principles equal rights to all men’.” VICTIMS OF THE FLOOD. Tweive Woman and Children Drowned in the Mississippi. Vicksburg, Miss., April 7.—Re- ports of destruction and suffering by the floods in the lower Mississippi valley continue to come in. Nineteen negroes, the survivors of a large party of refugees who at- tempted to escape from the over- flow down Bogue Falaye on a raft, arrived here on the steamer Hill City yesterday and reported that twelve women and children were drowned when thecurrent dashed their crazy vessel against a tree, and that they escaped with extreme difficulty. This is the most tragic event of the flood. STOCK DYING OF STARVATION. Lake Village, Chicot County, Ark. April 7.—The situation here is very distressing. There are many breaks in the levee from Lake Village up. The water in the swamps has risen to within a foot of the 1882 flood. The streets are all under water ex- cept Front street and the water is running across it. Stock is dying of starvation Much suffering will ebsue. SIONE SPEAKS HIS MIND. The Missouri Congressman’s Views as to Pensions. Washington, April 4.—The house to-day proceeded to the considera- tion of various private pension bills coming over from last Friday night’s session. Speaking of one of these bills Mr. Stone of Missouri declared that no people had been so desperately bur- dened under the name of patriotism and under the guise of pension laws as the people of the United States. He denounced the demand of the G. A. R., and asserted that the pres- idency was put up to the highest bidder. Thank God, there was one grand man who had declined to be a party tosucha sale. Though he kad fallen, he had fallen bearing the reputation of wise and incorrupt- able statesmanship and enjoying ithe respect of every honest citizen. (Applause on the democratic side.) Benjamin Harrison had atttined his . | office by cash, reaped by Wanamak- erand disbursed by Dudley. He (Mr. Stone) believed that the gov- ernment had been generous enough to the soldiers. Speaking for himself and speak- ing, he knew, against the party judg- ment of his party associates, he de- clared that he had gone as far in the direction of pensions as he intended to go, and he represented one of the largest ex-Union soldier districts in the country. He favored aliberal sys- tem of pension, but he entered his Plows, Planters, Cultivators, WAGONS, BUGGIES, ROAD CARTS, AND HAISH S.
