Strike From the Shoulder.
Duncan, Neb., April 28, 1890.
Brother Farmers: -There is a crisis
before us; beggary and starvation stare
us in the face We must strike or our
power will go." There are many grey
heads among us some of whom, for 20,
SO and 50 years have toiled through heat
and cold that they might procure a
home in which to end their last days-
and with what result? A vision of fore
closure of mortgages, (obtained by those
who employ 1 craftiness and theft) re
wards his ambitions; and now in the de
cline of life the poor old man must
struggle on, no ray of hope before him.
At night he must lie and toss on his rest
less pillow, vainly seeking some plan
with which to provide for the wants of
the morrow. God suffered our revolu
tionary fathers to be robbed and perse
cuted and abused, causing them to throw
off the yoke, K that we, their children,
might be free". God saw them through
with their great struggle.
Even worse treatment are we to-day
receiving at the hands of a set of mis
creants banded together under unjust
laws and whose only purpose is plunder;
and now we cry, ''How long oh Lord
must these things be?" Where is our
manhood? Where is the spirit of former
days which cast aside every yoke? And
where the arm mighty to save? We cry
aloud and hitherto the only answer has
been the echo of our wailing cry. In
vain have we looked sucessively to both
republican and democratic parties, we
are now looking for a Washington to
lead us to success. We have noble hearts.
intelligent mindsr.
strong arms
and
a
glorious and just cause; and now let us
strike from the shoulder, for our homes
and our families and our rights. Our
Tights through the ballot box we will
have though the grass grows green on
the narrow homes of all trusts, boards
of trade and monopelies of all kinds.

Sec. of Prairie Creek F. A., No. 355.
.The Farmers and Business Men.
Rcshville, Neb., June 16, 1800.
Editor Alliance : No observant
person can fail to notice the persistent
and determined opposition on the part
of a majority of the business men of
many small Inland towns to the popu
lar movement now in progress among
the farmers and other laborers, for a
more just and equitable division of the
products of their own labor, with a view
to the improvement of not only their
own immediate conditions and the fu
ture conditions of their children, but
but conditions which are absolutely
necessary to the maintainance and con
tinued prosperity of said business men
themselves. Every merchant, mechanic
or business man of whatever kind in the
small country towns depends, and niust
depend on the farmers living within a
radius of but a few miles of his town for
whatever success he may enjoy in the
pursuit of his trade or profession; and
nothing seems clearer than the fact that
that which hurts the farmer is sure to
injure the business' man, merchant and
mechanic, and rise versa. The prosperity
of the farmer is certain to be of advan
tage to the town's people except possi
bly the mortgage grinders, and such as
thrive only on the calamities and mis
fortunes of others.
These are self-evident, axiomatic pro
positions, and the" attitude of hostility
of said business men any where to the
farmer's movement so-called is not only
reprehensible, but is extremely idiotic.
The farmer's prosperity and conse
quent ability to buy goods bears the
same relation to the success of the busi
ness man as do the springs to the
brooks. Dry up the former and the lat
ter will disappear. The spring is the
cause of the brook. The farmer's pros
perity is the cause of the merchants pros
gerity. Now there can be no
effect without a cause preceding
it. A powerful cause will na
turallv produce a great effect. A pow
erful farming community as a cause will
produce great and abundant prosperity
for the merchant as its effect. Did you
ever hear (of course you have) the
phraze, "A set of fools?" Perhaps you,
reader, are reminded of a man whose
diet was milknothing but milk for
which he depended on a single cow, and
who not only neglected to feed the cow
anything himself, but actually got some
wretched fool like himself to help starve
her to death. So it is with the business
men (?) of some of these little villages
in the country. They are depending
solely on the farmers for success in
their business, and now when ruin
stares the farmers in the face as an
effect of unjust laws and galling inequal
ities, and he makes a move to save him
self and escape the impending ruin, these
milk diet fellows who would starve with
out him stand aloof, and when a dollar
drops form the hands of the down-trodden
farmers whom they refuse to help,
for goods purchased at a cheaper and
more reasonable prices of more honest
and friendly dealers in distant markets
they whine out in every pitch possible
to the human voice "You are hurting
your t-o-w-n. .', '

Mr. Streeter's Letter on the Minnesota
Decission.
Hon. J. B. Weaver in Iowa Tribune.
Hon. A. J. Streeter has written a let
ter approving the decision of the su-
Sreme court in what is known as the
linnesota case, which we are sorry to
see published. No one will question
the sincerity of Mr. Streeter's opinions,
but his letter was written, as he says,
before he had read either the opinion
of the majority of the court or that of
the three dissenting justices.
The decision in question was ren
dered in the case of Chicago, Milwau
kee & St. Paul Railroad Co. vs. Minne
sota. The three dissenting judges de
clared, in their opinion filed in the case,
that it practically overruled the Grange
decisions of 1876. The decisions, four
in number, have been regarded for now
fully fourteen years, as the safe guard
of the people against corporate greed
and oppression. The edict in the Min
nesota case overthrows the last safe
guard found in those rulings. What
were the points in controversey in those
cases? Simply these: That the laws of
Iowa, Wisconsin, and the other states
involved, were unconstitutional for two
reasons: First, it was an attempt to
regulate commerce among the states,
which could only be done by congress;
that the laws related to freight and pas
sengers taken up within a state and
carried without, and to freight and pas
sengers taken up without and carried
within another state, and were therefore
void.
Second, that the question whether the
rates charged by a company for its ser
vices was . reasonable or not was a ju
dicial question, and that the legislature
could not determine the matter, and
that the laws in question were therefore
void, being in conflict with that pro
vision of the constitution which pro
vides that no person shall be deprived
of his property without due process of
law.
The supreme court held against the
railroads upon both propositions held
that the regulation of the fares of rail
roads and other public accomodations
is a legislative prerogative and not a
judicial one Field and Strong dis
senting. '
In this last case the law of Minnesota
authorized the railroad commissioners
of that state under certain contingencies
to fix the rate to be charged by the rail
roads for purely local traffic, and made
their action, after taking certain steps,
final. . '
Now the supreme court of the United
states declares the law unconstitutional;
not because the legislature had dele
gated the authority to the commission
ers in stead of doing it by direct enact
ment, (for they had in another case de
cided that this could be done), but be
cause the question was a judicial one
and could not'be determined except by
the courts. The writer has carefully
examined the Grange decisions and the
dissenting opinion of Field and Strong,
and has also carefully examined the
Minnesota decision of the 24th of
March, last, and the dissenting opinion
therein, and has no hesitancy in saying
that it is the most unfortunate public
calamity which has befallen the Ameri
can people for ten years. It takes from
the legislatures and the people of every
state in the Union the power to pre
scribe limits to corporate greed, or to
control the railroads which they have
created. It transfers the whole con
troversey, in every instance, to the
courts and wipes out all state legisla
tion regulating railroad charges. The
Grange decisions of 1876 decided that
the state statute fixed the limit beyond
which the corporation could not go.
The late,, decision takes down the barrier
and leaves the railroads unbridled, ex
cept as they may be reached by tedious
and vexatious litigation. It is simply
monstrous! In a note received by the
writer from Senator Reagan, the latter
says: "I fear great trouble is to result
from the Minnesota decision."
We are sorry to feel compelled to
criticise friend Streeter's tetter; but we
are sure he wrote under misappre
hension. Six-Per Cent a Month.
A Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Enquirer writes, under the
date of April 22, that he had been per
mitted to take a look at some of the
farm mortgage returns just made to the
census bureau, and he declares that the
facts there are more than astonishing
they are astounding!
Green and Dark counties in Alabama
had been returned, and in these counties
there were farm mortgages at 38 per
cent or 8 per cent a month the money
generally loaned in small amounts, such
$150 to $200, and the agent of the census
said: "They have a loan system down
in Alabama by which the crop as well
as the land is answerable for these
loans."
But Arziona casts these figures into
the shade. The highest mortgage inter
est paid in the whole country is in Ari
zona, where it sometimes amounts to
72 per cent a year, or 6 per cent a month!
A very common thing in that country
.is to find interest at 36 per cent a year,
or three per cent a month. It seldom
runs down ia Arizona, according to
these returns, to less than 20 per cent.
Advocate, Topelca, Kas.
The superintendent of the' census is
alarmed at the leakage of facts through
officials and has just issued an order for
bidding agents to divulge any facts ob
tained under severe penalties. Keep it
dark, gentlemen, these facts must all be
sifted through thefanning mill at Wash
ington before it will do to let us have
them. Iowa Tribune. '
A WARNING TO THE FARMERS.
Protection Swept the Emblem of Liberty
From the Seas, and is To-day
Undermining Our Farming
Industries.
Philadelphia Record.
A little over thirty years ago the mer
chants of the United States owned seventy-five
per cent of the vesssels carry
ing the foreign tonnage of America.
To-day they own none of them. So ex
tinct has become the American flag up
on the seas of the world that Nellie Bly,
in her trip lasting seventy-three days,
never saw the stars and stripes floating
from the masthead of a vessel from the
time of her leaving this country until
her return. This grand old emblem of
liberty has been "protected" that is,
taxed off of the ocean highways of the
world. Its freedom has been paralyzed
by trade restrictions. Just as a caged
eagle pines and dies in captivity, so has
the American flag drooped and died in
the captivity of protection. So well did
the merchants and sailors in the early
history of our government understand
their calling and their interests that it
was with them that the cry "Free trade
and sailors' rights" originated. Free
trade in commerce which is the right
to do business with whom you please
is a thing of the past; and "sailors'
rights" have died with the death of com
merce of the United States. This has
happened within the last thirty years of
the history of this country .
The same influences are now under
mining and destroying the farmers and
farming industries of the United States.
More farms are being sold out every
month in the counties adjacent to Phil
adelphia than were sold ten or twelve
years ago during an entire year. Ex
cepting its foreign commerce, no indus
try of this country is so paralyzed to
day as that of farming. It is "fast be
coming a business of the past; not only
in so far as to hardly enable a man to
make a living for himself and family, but
in every respect. History is repeating
with the farmers the experiences of the
sailors, lhe farmers as a class do not
seem to understand what is meant by
selling in a free trade market and buy
ing in a taxed market. , They seem to
fail to appreciate the fact that Liver
pool makes the price ot grain for Penn
sylvania the same as it does for Russia
and India, and do not comprehend that
it is the price of their surplus products
that makes them either successful or
bankrupt.
The farmers of this country are now
doing a business on a basis of buying
milk by dry measure and selling it by
wine measure. They are buying by the
short ton of 2,000 pounds and selling by
the long ton of 2,240 pounds. They are
doing just the fereversegof what they
sheaild do in order to become successful
farmers or successful traders. Of all
the callings in this country the one that
could stand free trade more absolutely
is that of the farmer. If the McKinley
tariff bill should become a law, and be
enforced for three years, it is. safe to
say that no farmer in Pennsylvania
would be able to pursue his calling and
make his expenses. When it is under
stood that about forty-five per cent of
the people of the United States are
farmers, or are interested in the farm
ing industries, it may be realized how
disastrous to the industries of this coun
try would be the enforcement of the
provisions of the McKinley tariff bill.
From Wayne County.
Winside, Neb., June 19th, 1S90.
Editor Alliance : My will was good
enough to circulate the petitions calling
an independent convention but I could
not spare the time.If the farmers and la
boring men mean what they say, seven
tenths of them are for anything to beat
the two old parties that have been so
lavish with promises for lo! these many
years. The soup is too thin. It fails to
nourish any longer. We must have
something a little more substantial or
we perish.
I am doing all I can for your paper.
It has the right ring. Go on with the
good work. I am not quite ready to be
lieve that the natural condition of the
American people is master and servant.
They know there is something wrong,
and terribly wrong, but party prejudice
prevents them from applying the
remedy. I claim ther,e is no issue be
tween the two old parties. They both
belong to Wall street or the money
power, and every time the people vote
for either they vote to make ten thou
sand paupers and one mllionaire.
. The people of Neb. have one friend
yet. Let us use him. C. H. Van Wyck
is the man. Respectfully,
H. B. Miller".
Fifty years ago a young countryman from
Vermont went to Boston to try his fortune.
He bit upon the idea of establishing a parcel
carrying business between Boston and New
York, he beiDg responsible for the safety of
the parcels. His patronage was not large.
At first he carried all the parcels he had be
tween the two cities in his carpet bag, and
there was not more than money enough to
pay his traveling expenses, hardly that some
times. The young countryman's name was
Alviu Adams, and this May the Adams ex
press company celebrated its fiftieth anni
versary. It has a capital of $12,000,000, car
ries parcels to every state and territory in
the Union, and keeps 2,000 wagons, 3,000
horses and 20,000 men busy the year round.
Is not this a good story? Ex.
How many of those 20,000 men to
day, by going to Boston or any other
large city, as Alvin Adams did, can
make even a moderate fortune?. How
many of them can find an opportunity,
as Alvin Adams did, of setting up toll
gates that will exact from the indus
tries of the country many millions over
and above actual expenses and reason
able profit? How many will be able,
near the close cf their lives, to even buy
a small slice of the stock of the Adams
Express company? If a large number
of the 20,000 should band together to
open an express business, how long
would it take the Adams express com
pany to choke it off? How is it that in
vestors place their money only in those
enterprises which can exact heavy dues
from industry? How is it that to-day
money invested in bonafide industry is
almost invariably lost? If Alvin Ad
ams had had such small chances of suc
cess in the world as the 20,000 have to
day, how much of an express company
would ue have established, eh?
Strike off the shackles! Standard.

"THE BOOK OF THE EPOCH. A WONDERFULLY FASCINATING WORK."
CJESAK'S COLUMN
A Story of the Twentieth Century.
BY EDMUND BOISGILBERT, M. D. ...
One of the most startling and original works ever written. The author a man of wealth
and high social position, and who writes under a nom de plume, presents, in a startlingly
original and wonderfully fascinating work of fiction, a profound 6tudy of sciological condi
tions, and he follows thess conditions out to what he believes will be their inevitable result.
The events described in the story take place in the year 1988, and the scene is laid in New
York City. The plot is diversified and full of human interest. Some of the chapters are
equaled only by Victor Hugo in terseness and vividness of description. The effect of the
book as a whole is such that the reader will scarcely know in which character most to admire
the gifted author whether as a novelist skillfully weaving a complicated plot into a harmo
nious story ; as a poet deftly touching the chords of the great heart of humanity ;as a philosopher
analyzing the errors and laying bare the evil tendencies of our age; as a prophet warning
the race against the greed and selfishness which are eating away the foundations of society;
or as a preacher teaching the broad principles of divine charity and appealing to those who
have the power and the good will to redeem the world. ' m '
