THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
A Correct Doctrine.
RrsiivirxK, .Neb., April 21, '90.
Editor Allianck: In your issue of
April 11), appears an editorial under the
Caption, "The Truth Beginning to be
Recognized." And this statement is
rc'de with particular reference to the
present attitude of certain papers on
the money question; an extract being
given from the Omaha Herald preceded
by similar quotations from the Omaha
Republican in former issues of The
Alliance. Now, while I am glad to
welcome any additions to the ranks of
financial reformers I cannot so willingly
admit that papers so prominent, so well
informed and sagacious as are said pa
pers have just begun to "recognize" the
"truth" about the evils of "contraction."
Evidently those papers are "beginning"
to "recognize the truth" that if they
would retain the farmer's patronage
they must appear to be recent converts to
the only correct financial doctrine which
3'ou have so long, so earnestly and hon
estly been proclaiming from the house
tops, and on all appropriate occasions,
and admit what they long, long ago
"recognized" as the "truth", about this
very essential matter.
I think it more proper, allow me to
say, that said papers and many more of
the same class who depend for their
support and continued existence on
their rural readers, be given more cred
it for sagacity than honesty in the mat
ter of executing so grand a somersault
. . . . i . . . i . . . . 4 1. : . Tn4n i . . .

extremely critical time. None but
political fools could fail to "recognize"
the truths above alluded to years ago,
and the editors of said papers do not
nor never did belong to that class. To
make so radical and sudden a change
on this all-important of public questions
is to be regarded rather as an evidence
of good generalship, and that while
they are really following they may there
by seem to be faithfully leading their
readers.
The help of many is needed to push
the wagon to the top of the hill, and
what is to be thought of those avIio not
only neglect or refuse to assist, but who.
having purposely obstructed its labor
ious, slow but upward progress, begin
to push vigorously as it nears the sum
mit:' It is one thing to speak from consid
erations of policy, and quite another to
speak from considerations of principle.
We have Loth kinds of speakers, and
-care should be taken to distinguish
between them. Men and papers forced
by circumstances or otherwise to be
trufriful and useful may render valuable
service to a good cause, but it is better,
wi-?er anil safer to trust in responsible
positions only such as are known to
have promptly recognized and admitted
the truth, and perchance labored at
great disadvantage and loss, but per
sistently, to make it popular and effi
cacious. The obvious moral of it all is:
Beware of him who has once willfully
and almost fatally betrayed you.

Resolutions of Saltillo Alliance No. 1353.
Saltillo. Neb.. April 19, 1890.
Whereas, We believe transportation
rates to be double what they should be
and that rates of interest charged by
money loaners to be usurious; and
Whereas, The existing laws either
in their form, or in their execution have
failed in the past to redress any of the
wrongs and extortionate rates; there
fore he it
Resolved, That we the members of
Alliance No. 1353 will support no man
for office, regardless of party, who in
our judgment does not favor a radical
reduction in transportation rates, lower
interest on money and economy in ex
penditures of the public moneys; there
fore be it
Resolved, That we favor a reduction
of taxes to reduce the surplus in the
county, state and national treasury, in
stead of by reckless and extravagant
appropriations as is done by the pres
ent office holders.
That we are in favor of abolishing the
present state board of transportation
with the exception of Attorney General
Leese. We do commend his action in
trying to procure Iowa rates for the
citizens of Nebraska.
That in our belief the farmers of this
state, who are in the majority, will
never be fairly represented in our gov
ernment until the state offices are Idled
iy men selected from among the farm-
ers
F
themselves.

Pleasant Vie w Alliance No. 1080, Prairie
township, Phelps county, now numbers
Mxty-nine and it is in a "nourishing con
dition. It is composed of as active and intel
ligent farmers as are to be found.
Meetings are held every Wednesday
evening, always with a good attendance
which make the meetings very interest
ing and enthusiastic. Each one seems
to be impressed with the needs of the
hour, and the results for our betterment
are already evident. There is a brother
ly feeling that was never felt before
which grows deeper as we become bet
ter acquainted, ami realize the needs of
united action.
The Alliance of every county, state
and nation is becomming more formida
ble and irresistable, and our cause is be
ing discussed by all classes of people.
'We may obtain our wants as the man
ufacturer, the financier, the common
carrier obtains his by asking for it and
working for it. Each industry must
look to its own welfare.
We cannot expect the miner to look
after the interests of the grazer, nor
the merchant, the banker, much less
any of these, the farmer. He must look
out for himself. The industry that is
best represented in the halls of legisla
tion secures the prize.
Agriculture ranks first of all industries
and is pursued by thebrainiest.soberest,
purest ami the most enduring class of
our people.
Let her representation rank first in
the halls of legislation, and there will
result justice to all in fact as in name.
uppress not the producers 01 our
wealth to the peril of our nation
Fellow farmers and farm laborers,
arise as one man and present your claim

"A Little Nonsense Now and Then,"
Hello! Bro. Farmers, Knight3 and
hard working business men.
We feel good,, as the boy said when
he had filled himself with watermelon
sliced up with his new knife. Why do
I feel good? Well, the State Alliance
met on the 7th of Jan. On the 13th Gov.
Thayer asked the railroad kings to re
duce the rates on corn. The 24th he com
manded the kings out side of Nebraska
to reduce the rates to Chicago when his
authority only reached as far as Omaha.
The big State Alliance gave him the big
head. He even thought, he was king
J. Gould, and that he owned all the
roads between here and Chicago.
Now comes Pres. Adams ot the U. P.
and favors a 50 per cent reduction of the
corn rate in Nebraska. This reduction
comes too late to help the farmers this
year. But it helps the speculators and
establishes a precedent.
We sent a wagon load of petitions to
Congress, and now Senators Manderson
and Paddock are flopping around like a
couple of superanuated roosters with
their heads off, trying to find out how
to do as the petitions command.
We hear of politicians great and small
going to Washington to Avine and dine
and get instructions from the kings how
to circumvent the Farmers' Alliance.
We feel good because the Alliance and
Knights have caused all this cackling
among the boss political geese.
Brothers, this shows us our strength
when organized. If we all stick to
gether, work together, vote together,
we shall get just what we demand.
We shall have money from Uncle Sam
at 2 per cent a year. We shall have our
freight carried at cost by. government
railroads. We can make of this world
a paradise fit for the residence of the
gods. To accomplish this we must lay
aside the old political parties. .We
must put upon the shelf the present gov
ernment pap suckers. W e must tell the
worn out political hacks we have no use
for them. We must go to the front with
a new party and new men to earrjrout
our new measures. Every county has
talentthat would grace any position with
in our gift.
We might better hare new men and
new measures writh some mistakes than
a lot of dead conservatives that will not
make an effort to improve our condi
tion. What shall we name the new party?
Hold on there dont all ask that question
at once (Now brothers scratch your
heads.) We do not expect to have our
way about it, but we would call it the
National party.
When this new party is born we must
not wrap it in swadling clothes or allow
it to creep. We must start it on the
jump for the White House.
In the heat of political strife wo must
not compromise our principles with our
enemies. But remember the National
party is in favor of a national money
issued direct to the people at 2 per cent
a year. That the national party is 111 fa
vor of national ownership of all railroads
with passenger and freight rates fur
nished to the people at cost. That the
National party is opposed to the alien
ownership of the land.
When the new party wins and these
principles are carried out in every detail,
as they surely will be if Ave do our duty,
our grand children will stand some show
of having homes of their own and may
feel better than the boy out side of his
watermellon. John Stebbins..

Resolutions of Greely Co. Alliance.
Resolved, That we demand the imme
diate restoration of silver to its legal
tender functions, and that we believe
the government should issue money
direct to the people upon landed security
at not more than two per cent per an
num. That the government shall take pos
session of all railroads by right of emi
nent domain, and operate the same in
the interests of the people.
That we demand the Australian sys
tem of voting.
That the necessaries of life shall be
imported free of duty.
That the laws of our country should
be made by the wealth producers and
not by monopolists.
That we demand a law that will per
mit us to elect our Senators by direct
vote of the people.
That we should have school books at
cost.
That we demand the legal rate of in
terest in this state shall besix(6)per cent
and not exceed ten (10) per cent on con
tract, and that any rate above ten per

A Stirring Letter From Red Willow Co.
Editor Farmers' Alliance- I have
been reading your friendly and valuable
paper, with which I am well pleased.
I believe you truly have the interest of
the laboring class of people at heart.and
know that you have their sympathy,
that you have their sympathy
You would have many more subscribers

this only helps to explain the helpless
and hopeless condition to which we are
being reduced by the leaders of the two
old parties that are controlled by and run
in the interests of monopoly. Many per
sons are advocating working through
one of them to get representation Avhich
I think would mean another defeat for
us. from the fact that they are nearly all
monopoly men. The facts are that mo
noploy has everything that it can get so
as to make control certain. And in this
(Red Willow) county last year they saw
to it that no Alliance man was a dele
gate to the county convention if they
could help it. And so far as I know
they did help it. In the principal towns
some one had the names ot persons
printed on a ticket as delegates, and a
man had to vote for those parties as
delegates or they had to bolt. And it
seems to me that the sooner we bolt the
better it will be for us. And as far as I
know the majority of the members are
in favor of a Labor or an Antimonopoly
party as shall be agreed upon by the
different labor organizations 01 the
United States. I think that I am speak
ine the sentiment of a majority of the
members of the Alliance when I say that
if we ever get representation it must be
by a union of the producers into a poli
tical party. And 1 think that the mi
nonty should yield to the majority; lor
as long as they can keep us divided they
can defeat us. But whenever we march
to the primaries, conventions and polls
as one man tor the liberties which by
right are ours, the victory will then be
ours. Ana this must be done soon or
the victory will belong to another. A
standing army will keep us in subjection.
We will have the privilege of tending
the land for some one else, while we and
our wives and children are clothed in
rags, and deprived of education This is no

laboring people if they do not arouse
from their slumber and lay their preiu
dices aside, and do what they can do

have had were through the laboring

the only nope 01 reiormation to-day.

A Pure Eqalization is What We Want.
Editor Alliance: We take your
paper and think it a good paper, and
wish every farmer would take it and do
all they could to hold up the Alliance
and get their country equalized as
quick as possible. . We read the differ
ence in congressionals. It seems that
the congressman has but little sympa
thy for the poor people. You see bills
pass for old soldiers and war widows
to draw $8 a month, and some general's
widow or daughter to draw from $75 to
$100 a month, and $2,000 a year. Is
there anv eoualitv in anv such business?
If a war widow can live on $8 a month
why can't a general's widow live on the
same? What do they expect the gen
eral's widows to do with all their mon
ey? Here is a point I look at. Is a
general's wife or ajpresident's any better
than a soldier's wife or a farmer's wife?
No they are not, and I say a general of
war let his widow draw pension equal
with the war widow, the general's wid
ow's husband is not any dearer or near
er to her than the husband 01 a war
widow, so let them fare alike. Here is
another point I look at. Why is a pres
ident called a big man? It is because
he is paid big money! Now I want to
know if a president's family is any bet
ter than a farmer's family? I don't
think' that a president's widow has any
better right to government money than
a farmer's widow. The president is
paid a big salary to do all he can for
his government, and the farmers are
doing all they can for their govern
ment. He can see he is making a for
tune a year and his family living in
luxury. It don't entitle their widows
to government money any more than a
farmer's widow that raises chickens and
sells a bit of cream for a living.
Farmers for Gods sake look at all
these things, and don't make slaves out
of one to keep a flirt out of another.
Do you think our Heavenly Father will
ornament a chair and set a president's
widow or general's widow above a far
mer's widow? No, never! So let them
all fare on this earth alike.
We see a bill in congress appropriat
ing $25,000 for a monnment for Presi
dent Harrison's grand-father. Is Presi
dent Harrison's grand-father any bet
ter than anybody else's grand-father.
If President Harrison wants a monu
ment to his grand-father let him put it
there and save $25,000 to pay on the
government debt in place of making a
debt. A good president is a good
thing, but they are well enough paid
without keeping generations of them at
the expense of the government. This
as my proposition. Yours truly,
Mrs. T. J.

Resolutions from Barada Alliance.
Barada, Richardson Co., Apr. 22.
The Farmer's Alliance at Barada is
"nourishing like a green bay tree," and
is increasing rapidly at each meeting in
numerical strength as well as in the
kuowlege of the fact that farmers can
as effectively organize as other trades
and labor organizations. At these meet
ings questions that especially pertain to
their interests are freely and intelligent
ly discussed. The signs are hopeful
that the education of the farmer is in
the right direction. We are beginning
to realize at last that we must do some
thing for our own relief, and one of our
first important duties will be to relieve
from their arduous duties the illustrious
triumvirate who has so perseveringly
from time to time refused to give us re
lief from railroad extortions. At our
earliest convenience, gentlemen, we

Taxes.
No one pays his taxes with any high
degree of pleasure, since about all the
pleasure he can get out of it is in think
ing as he pockets his receipt, that he
will not have to pay it over again for
at least a year. The harder men toil
for a living the harderit is to pay taxes.
So it comes to pass that farmers are
sensitive to any measure that is likely
to make their taxes higher. Knowing
this, you will see wrhy the sharp, un
principled liquor manager whose words
are printed below, says: -'If you work
the farmers on the tax question you
catch them every time."
It is a matter for thankfulness that
Nebraska farmers think and read and
so cannot be "caught' in as flimsy a net
as those of states haying a greater per
centage of illiteracy.
Ihe money that a farmer pays over a
bar for drinks will not pay his taxes;
the saloon license money pays expenses
of city schools and not a cent to the
farmers taxes: the bior ravenna nnid hv
the liquor business into the government
treasury has no channel by which it
Can reach the farmers nocket unless he
gets it at the bank at a ruinous rate of
lnieresr, ano so, wnere is the basis tor a
claim that prohibition will increase
taxes.
llev. Joseph Cook is a distinguished
student of social and economic ques
tions, and he says: "Prohibition will
effect an important reduction of taxes."
Further he says that twenty-three years
of prohibition in Maine has effected an
important reduction of taxes. Let
every man stop and inquire how much
the liquor traffic has taxed him in a
year and see if he does not conclude
that it has cost more than it has paid.
Men lose by the traffic who never drink
liquor. Employes will be absent or
will slight their work, runaways hap
pen that make expenses. Men drink,
lose positions and are unable to pay
their debts; and so, indirectly we are
taxed that the liquor trade may flour
ish and then directly taxed that its
criminals may be tried, its insane and
paupers supported.
Ihe liquor traffic iavs the taxes!
Heaven save the mark! It keeps men
from accumulating property and puts
the burden ot taxation on the prudent
and thrifty. It swallows up the money
that, nut into the necessaries of life.
would make times easy. It is a leech
fattening upon every legitimate trade
and occupation and yielding nothing
and paying nothing in return. If it
pays taxes it is the tax on property
stolen from the homes of the people,
and we do not believe that the Honor
press are going to be able to "catch"
the farmers and make them believe
otherwise, especially when we read that
fifty Farmers' Alliances in one county
are in favor of prohibition.

upon every one connected with the
trade, over $200,000 were raised, aud
how it was used to buy up the politici
ans. Mr. Crowell said:
"We had all the workers on our side,
and the machines of both old parties
were with us. We paid the county
commissioners of this county to let us
have the poll list exclusively for our
use, with the understanding that Ave
were not to return the list till after the
election" So the prohibitionists, with
no window books, no money, no orga
nization, had no show, whatever,
against us
'Mr. Crowell, how did you
manage
to get the newspapers pretty much
all
on your side?
"hy, we bought them by paying
down so much cash. I visited the edi
tors in person or had some good man
to do so. and arranged to pay each pa
per for its support a certain amount of
money. Throughout the state we paid
weekfy papers from $50 to $500 to pub
lish such matter as we might furnish,
either news or editorial, but the city
daily papers we had to pay from $1,000
to $4,000, which latter amount was paid
to the Times of this city. Other papers
we could not buy straight out, conse
auentlv we had to pay from 30 to 60
cents per line for all matter published
for us according to the circulation and
the ability of the paper. We paid the
Ledger 40 cents per line and the Record
we paid 60 cents per line, though it did
some good work for us for nothing. It
was understood w ith most all of the pa
pers that we would furnish the matter,
and so we employed a man to write for
us and prepare articles for publication
which would be furnished to the pa
pers to be printed as news or editorial
matter, as we might direct. The most
eff ective matter we could get up in the
influencing of votes was, that prohibi
tion did not prohibit, and the revenue,
taxation, and how prohibition would
hurt the farmers. We would have these
articles printed in different papers and
then buy thousands of copies of the
paper and send them to all the farmers.
If you work the farmers on the tax
question you can catch them every
time.
"How did I get the names of farmers?
Why I got the poll-book in each town
and hired some man who was well post
ed to select the names of every farmer
and send them to me, and it was here
that we got in our best work; for with
the politicians, the papers and the far
mers you can always win. C. C. Tur
ner, secretary of the liquor dealer's
publishing house, Louisville, will mail
you a list of the farmers in Nebraska.
He is a bright tellow, and can do you
much good in some ways; but don't let
him try to manage the newspapers for
you."
"How did you manage, Mr. Crowell,
to get so many ministers on your side?"
"Oh, that is the easiest thing out. No,
I did not go to the preachers as I did to
the politicians, but I always found out
a good man in the church who could
work the preacher with but very little
trouble, lor halt ot the preacners are
cowards. Then I hired, for so much a
name, some old broken down news
paper man or politician to go around
with a petition ami get the names ot
ministers and lawyers, Avhich we pub
lished with fine effect. We talked high
license all the time. Never try to de
fend the saloon; if so, you lose the in
fluence of church members and minis
ters; but talk about the revenue, cider,
taxation and for high license. I had
thousands of badges printed with high
license and gave them out to poll work
ers on election day, and it had fine
effect."
"Yes, we understood and agreed to
the passage of a high license law be
fore the amendment was submitted, so
hat we could use it as a means to de
feat prohibition. And it was that, and
that alone that saved us. With all our
money and political backing we could
not have defeated the amendment on
any other plea than high license."
