U. and P:stities—Oppo- sition toa New Party. From the Journal of Agriculture. The political papers continue to do their best to mix up the farmers organizations in political contests, because the politicians know by ex- perience that when partisan polities gets the control of such organiza- tions it presages their certain des- traction. We take the liberty of as- suring politicians and political pa- pers that the Farmers’ and Labor- ers’ Union is not apolitical organiza- tion, itis nota party and has not the remotest intention of entering the field of politics in a body either to support its own candidates or the candidates of any other party. Not only does the first section of Declaration of Principles of the F. & L. U. of Missouri show the status of this order on matters political, but in order that there may he no doubt about it, the executive com- mittee of the order has issued its proclamation, which we publish be- low, urging the members to faith- fully observe the injunctions of that Declaration of Principles. OFFICIAL PROCLAMATION OF THE EXEC- UTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE FARN- ERS’ AND LABORERS’ UNION OF MISSOURI. Whereas, the Executive Commit- tee of the F. & L. U. of Mo., have become impressed with the fact that in many parts of the state mem- bers of the order are displaying much anxiety and inquiry as to the expedience of placing political tick- ets before the people for their suf- frages in the coming fall elections; and whereas, we deem it not only expedient but right and proper that the order should be bound by that clause in their Declaration of Prin- ciples, wherein the members pledge | themselves to “labor for the educa- cation of the agricultural classes in the science of economical govern- ment in a strictly non-partisan spirit,and to bring about a more per- fect union of said classes;* and are that they will not be called upon to perform any act that would conflict with their political or rel faith we therefore deem it ini to the best interests of the order for the GULATING Farmers’ and Laborers’ Union as a body to enter into a_ political con- test. And we your committee fur- ther earnestly advise that each mem- ber attend all meetings of a general nature, of the parties with whom they usually affiliate, and see to it that none but those who will pledge themselves to support the interests of the farmers in the making and administering the laws shall be nom- inated or receive their votes, as by thus governing our actions we can defend the order from the charge of being partisan and may most surely secure what we unanimously believe to be our just and reasonable de- mands. Tuos. Day, Chairman. N. J. Wozarp, Sec’y. D. F. Esxew. The action of the Executive Com- mittee of the F. & L. U. of Missouri in this matter agree with the line ta- ken by the officials in the farmers’ organizations in other states. Pres- ident B. H. Clover of the Kansas State Alliance is reported in a late paper to have said about the Alliance in his state as follows: I do not believe it will be necessa- ry for us to put a seperate state ticket in the field, but we propose to have a yeice in the legislation of this state and will see to it that men representing our views are elected to the legislature. We will be heard also in the fights for congressman. Take the seventh district for exam- ple. Mr. Peters says he can’t af- ford to go back on $5,000 per year, and will not ask for re-election. He is in favor of increasing the salary, and would have the oppressed farm- ers, who raise corn at acost of 20c per bushel and sell it at 14c pay this luxurious salary. In all the other states, as far as we have heard, the same policy has been outlined. In Ohio, in Iowa and other states where the farmers’ organizations are already making i their influeuce count, it is strictly in a non-partisan manner. The farm- ers are becoming wide awake to the fact that menand principles are of bee more importance than the mere }jyxsury of ahot or cold bath at all} Some of : Hence to what-! hours from 7 a. m. to 10 p. m. except /no doubt, influenced by other than | ¢.

The members of the Christian church are piecing a_ quilt to sell. All who are willing to donate a dime towards buying material will find Mrs. Josie Dudly ready to receive it. J.S. Pierce is out as candidate for the office of country treasurer subject to the action of the demo- cratic party. We have known Mr. Pierce for twenty years, and always as a straight-forward man and one well qualified for the office. Mr. John Durrett has 200 eggs in his incubator that will hatch this week. It will pay those who never saw an incubator to call and see this one. Mr. James Hays has been off look- ing for a large daft horse. Mr. H. has one of the finest all purpose horses in Bates county, and that is Smuggler. Mr. Duncan, the agent for tomb- stone, comes to me or the Trwes to find cut who has dropped off in the last few days. Iam going to see Mr. D. and have him pay me for my valuable information. If you want good times take the Times for one year and see if you are not benefitted. You can buy a corner lot at Amo- ret for $1,000. RELu™. What it Costs Must be carefully considered by the great majority of people, in the buy- ing even necessities of life. Hood's Sarsaparilla commends itself with special force to the great middle classes, because it combines positive economy with great medicinal pow- er. It is the only medicine of which can truly be said “100 Doses One Dollar,” and a bottle taken accord- ing to directions will average to last a month. The “Benders” Released. Oswego, Kan., April 10.—Mrs. Griffith and her daughter of Niles, Mich., alleged to be the aged Mrs. Bender and Kate Bender respect ively, were released to-day on habeas corpus proceedings brought by their attorney. They introduced the affidavits of the matron of the Michigan Penal Institute, showing that Mrs. Griffith was confined there for manslaughter at the time the Bender crimes were committed. Af- fidavits were also introduced proving an alabifor the daughter. County Attorney Morrison, representing the state, produced the testimony of a Mr. Stewart, who swore positively that Mrs. Griffith and her daughters were the Benders. At the conclu- sion of the case Judge Collins or- dered the release of the prisoners. The county commisioners purchased railway tickets for Mrs. Griffith and her daughter, and they will be sent back to Niles to morrow. When Baby was sick, we gave her Castoria.
