Jly lKnis Gronlund. in the Nationalist. Be straight, "integer" A man of in tegrity is the very essence of duty, and here it is we fail most completely. Ot course some regard for truth is implied iu the simplest social state, and without some measure of honesty we could not get aloug at all. The special necessity lor contidenee in the mutual relations of human beings develops to some ex tent the sense of honor and the other special necessity, that anything which i done or made should really be what it purports to be, develops to some ex tent integrity in work, or honesty. Only the third branch of truth: reality in knowledge, brought about by the ne cessity of understanding the real world with which we are in incessant relation, has been fully attained, because it does not come into collision with our inter ests. - ' Since all our social relations are one sole web of conspiracy to tempt in, it is no wonder that life is a ma3S of dishon esties. Business life tempts us to be 'tm truthful; at all eveut3 is on a footing of enmity with openness, requiring us it does secrecy, and in certain cases de ception. Everywhere: we meet with temptation to lying, which comes next to, and very near to, compulsion. .Scarcely a transaction is ever consum mated without some form of deception being practiced. The ability to "drive a bargain" is nothing else but a certain species of cunning in making facts ap 2ear different from what they are, whereby customers are buguiled into paying more than its value for an arti cle. Taking society as it actually is, everyone expects everyone else to prac tice a certain amount cf deception, and one failing to do so would be adjudged possessed scarcely of the full comple ment of "wits.". The suppressio veri is fully employed, the impression prevail ing that no wrong is done, unless a positive falsehood has been resorted to, though surely it is the effect, not the form, that is material. Even Herbert Spencer, the apostle of individualism, informs us that "as the law of the ani mal creation is 'eat or be eaten,' so of the trading community it may be said its motto is 'cheat or be cheated." Men in different occupations, men naturally conscientious who manifestly chafe un der the degradation they submit to, have one and all expressed the sad be lief that it is impossible to carry on trade with strict rectitude. The scrupu lously honest must go to the wall. "And nobody seems ashamed of these things; they are not only tolerated but actually defended." Spencersumsupthe invest ment in these words: "Illicit practices of every form and shade from venial deception up to all but direct theft may be brought up to the higher grades of our commercial world." "Liable to prompt dismissal as the as sistants in our stores are for non-success in selling; gaining higher positions as they do in proportion to the quanti ties of goods they dispose of profitably; applauded, certainly not reproved, for any dishonest tricks, -these young peo ple often display a scarcely credible demoralization and speak almost con tinuous falsehoods. Whatever is need ed to effect .a sale must be said." "Any fool can speak the truth." It is said that the universal practice is to make goods up in lengths shorter than they profess to be. Silk is "weighted" with soap or sugar. Manufacturers get de signs by making workmen steal them that is a very common offence. Insen sibly, almost irresistibly, men arc thrust into trade-immorality. We will sa-, fome utterly unconscientious trader is the first to introduce some new form of fraud. The more mpright merchants are continually tempted to adopt this questionable device which those around ihem are. practising; the greater the number that yields the more unequal the battle. The pressure of competi- tion becomes more ana more severe finally they are compelled to follow the unscrupulous leader. Is it not startling is it not enough to condemn this pres ent to know that generous, upright men, of fine moral nature are compelled lo imitate the greatest knores in the trade, at the risk of bankruptcy? It is told of a draper in England, who crrried his conseience into his shop, that lie refused to commit the current frauds of his trade, whereby his business be came so unremunerative that twice he became a bankrupt, so that he actually by his brnkruptcies inflicted more evils upon others than he would have inflict ed upon his customers by committing Spencer asks: "What are 'accommo dation bills' but practically forgeries? " Aud what frightful commentary could not be made on the legal, commercial rule careat emptor! "You must assume that he who sells jou a thing is a scoun drel." And, yet there is no good reason to assume that the trading classes are in musically worse than others. We all continually fall into such temptations as are open to us. lew classes, i an are iree ironi immoralities tnat areas great as the above, relatively to temp tation. Take politics. Everyone admits that they are carried on by systematic cor ruption. Jiut one phenomenon really surpasses all the lest. What can be mere brazen and shameful is the trade of the harlot more demoralizing? than to see a society like Tarn many-Hall, iormed for the express purpose of grasp ing puone oinces ior its memoers an ot!iee-broking concern openly thowing itself off lo the public, and present inr itself as a type of "democracy ?" This lack of integrity naturally affects our men of talent and genius, and makes them degenerate into mere in struments of narrow personal interests; hence our scientists are satisfied with f-npeiT:cial conceptions, our artists in dulge in unprincipled creations, to fichieve a rapid and ephemeral popu larity; our inventors give their time to lioth'mg but lucrative pursuits melan hol3T results indeed, deprived of all moral value, and which have a still wor?e influence on men of second-rate abilities. Selfishness perverts and mir- alyzes the most eminent powers. Whenever a private enterprise is now broached, none asks whether the work v is wanted, or will be useful to the com munity, or a means of healthy life to the enterprising individual, or whether it is honest, can be carried on without being defiled, or even whether he likes it, no, but does it pap? And, observe, it is our comfortable classes that ask this "professional" question. If it does not promise so and so much per cenjt. on capital, it is dropped. "Yet clearly," as has been said, "it would be a better paying thing, with but one per cent., if it would make one happy, with helpers around one contented, children growing up under healthy conditions and pro ducing genuine and useful articles, than with ten per cent, with jangling and Wrangling, over worked and sad faces around us, and dirty, deceptive stuff produced. To conclude the indictment: our whole mercantile and financial class i3 nothing but a criminal class in regard to the bulk of their incomes and for tunes. Our "best people" reek with dishonesties. .The hordes of stock and 3hare-mongers (including ministers of the gospel) are the criminal classes par excellence in our modern society. Every man and woman among us is contin ually tempted by our social arrange ments to be dishonest. Should net one with a healthy mind do all he can to overthrow such a system? Now let nationalism reverse the con ditions of society. Make it. in the first place, man's interest to' be honest. When the work of anybody is no longer a tribute to physical necessity, but a glad performance of social office, when a few hours of agreeable effort daily will secure all necessaries, decencies, and comforts, whyshould any rational man want to make a living by crime when he can far more easily make it by hon est effort? Next, let wealth cease to be a social power &s it will when everyone has an assured income, for it is precisely such a power because others need a part of it. No one will care to be wealthy, when his wealth can only be eaten and drunk and enjoyed by himself aud his friends, when it cannot tempt others to be his servants. : And, lastly, make all work a social func tion this is the most important of all and all-comprehensive. When a butch er is assured of a decent living not as a quid pro quo, but as a means enabling him to perform his function when his maintenance in old age and the future of his children are guaranteed, when he knows that in the innumerable circles where he figures as a consumer his in terests are taken care of, then be sure he will soon learn in his work to give society the first consideration, then he will devote himself entirely to furnish his customers with good meat at fair prices. It is nothing but human nature. Then we shall have the motives at work which ruled "when all England awoke every morning and went to its work with a prayer. " Resolutions of . Centre Hill Alliance No. 781. Whereas; For years past we the peo ple have faithfully supported our re spective parties and nominated chosen men irom the proressionai classes, ana under laws made and administered by those men we have seen the rich men getting richer and the poor men getting poorer, and we believe a change in our laws and law-makers is essential to the liberty and independence of the laboring classes: Therefore be it Resolved, We the members 01 uenter Hill lodge No. 781 do pledge ourselves to support no man for office who is not a member of the Alliance and known by his past record and true to the prin ciples of the order. lhat we demand the abolition ot that useless and expensive farce the state board of transportation. That we demand the election of our United States senators and our railroad commissioners by a direct vote of the people, and the enactment of a law to tax real estate mortgages in the county where recorded. That we demand the free coinage of silver and the issue of a full legal tender note secured by the government. That we demand government owner ship of railways, and their operation at cost. That we will not patronize any lum ber dealer who is known to be con nected with the late Omaha pooling scheme. That we demand equal rights to all and special privileges to none. Lhat we endorse the proposition of senator Stanford to loan money on farm mortgages at one and two per cent. lhat the necessaries of lite should be imported iree of duty. , That we favor a reduction of taxes to reduce the surplus in the county, state and national treasury instead of the ex travagant appropriations, as done by the present olhee holders. That we will not support any mem ber of the Alliance who will accept a nomination from either the republican or democratic parties except in the way of an endorsement. And further we will not support any man for any office of trust who will not pledge himself to adhere strictly to the full principles of the Alliance. The Buffalo County Alliance. There were ubout 200 delegates pres ent at the last meeting of the Buffalo County Alliance. In the evening there was a joint meeting of the Alliance, K of L. and other labor organizations The people's movement was unani mously endorsed, and a county con vention was called to meet in Kearney, July 8, to select delegates to the State Convention, and to the Congressional, Representative and Senatorial Conven tions and nominate candidates for repre sentative and County Attorney. Thus the work goes on. The Kearney Courier says that most of the Committeemen of the old parties are members of the Alii ance, and are resigning their positions. Those parties will have a rocky road this fall. Two Ways of Getting Raw Material. A shrewd Russian has just been ar rested for stealing shells from the ar senal at Sebastapol. He was a machin ist and obtained all his raw material by stealing it from the government. He will now go to Siberia and work hard all his life. He was iu the wrong coun try. He should have operated in Ameri ca, where the government would have laid a t:ix on all the people for his bene fit, made him a millionaire, and instead of tendiDg him to Siberia, would have permitted him to reside in Europe and buy a duke for his drughter. Lincoln Herald. A Crumb for the Bee. Referring, doubtless, to the Farmers' Alliance, the Omaha Bee says, "secret political societies are repugnant to re publican principles." If republican principles as exemplified by the repub lican and democratic parties had not been inimical to the farmer's interests, it might never have been necessary to exclude Bee manipulators and others from the farmer's councils. But human rights have become a stench in the de- I praved nostrils of modern partisanship. winie unman greed is sweet savor. The Bee also says, "Honesty does not require a mask." This is the same advice the wolf would give to the Iamb, yet we congratulate ourselves that even our villitiers must recognize the fact, at least by intimation, that honesty is the promiuent charcteristic of the Farmers' Alliance. Had the Bee said, Honesty should not require a mask, we could assent to the truth of the proposition at once; but if the circumstances which have governed in this matter have 'ought about a state of facts that are the opposite of his proposition. we leave it to the moralizing power of the Bee to construe it into as favorable a commen tary upon the political methods that have compelled that slate of facts, as he may ue able. Gibbon Reporter. FROM L. Mortgage Indebtedness of one Town in Hall County $7326o. Editor Farmers' Alliance: Please find enclosed express order for $1.00 and send paper to Hansen, eb. I see some talk in the papers -in re gard to the mortgage indebtedness of land in this state, aud as a matter of news will say that in the town of South Platte, Hall Co.. .Neb., I -was assessor, and find the following: Assessed valua tion of land, $75,746; mortgage indebt edness on lands, $73,200, and some of the land I wa not able to find out whether there was any indebtedness on it or not. Corn is looking fair.but small grain is very poor. The Alliances all appear to have taken on new energy. The Inde pendent movement is just the thing the people want, and if the farmers will only stand together, success is sure to crown theirr efforts. Vrnr Most Trnlv. L. Henry. Why not a Farmer for Governor? From the Blair Republican. The promptness with which the pap fed organs of the old parties denounce any attempt to unite the Alliance, Grange and other labor organizations of this state, shows that they are touched in a vital spot. Oh yes, both old parties love the farmer (while they can control his vote) but not to the ex tent of having him granted that repre-; sentative and political control as offi cials, legislators and law-makers to which they are entitled by their numer ical strength, lhat would knockout all the lobbies of contractors, salary grabbers, monopolies, corporations and railroads. The Republican is opposed to pro scribing against any class because of occupation so tar as politics is con cerned and this a most excellent rea son why the lawyers, bankers and cap italists who have been misrepresenting the common people in our legislatures, congress and gubernatorial chairs, un til we are on the eve of a great political revolution, should be kindly relegated to the rear, While representative men from all the common herd who toil and sweat as producers are elected to make laws for the common good of all man kind! Why not select a farmer for the next governor 01 JNeoraska, instead 01 a banker or capitalist? Why not send our fair proportion of representatives to congress? not to profit a partv or the individual office holders themselves but to vastly profit the common peo ple whom they will represent. Party schreechers would have us be lieve that some great danger threatens when the people clamor as they now do for popular representation for a voice in making and shaping representation and controlling the destinies of this re public but the truth is, if this govern ment is regenerated and restored to its original purposes of universal liberty and the diffusion of equal rights and privileges to all classes the ballot box is our last peaceful resort. Nebraska will follow in the wake of Dakota and Minnesota, and wheel into line in a few weeks with a series of in dependent conventions and nomina tions that will astonish the machine politicians. A Discouraging View of the Case. Ruby, Neb., June 9, 1890. Editor Alliance; I am happy to see that the people are being informed, and are discovering the causes of their deplorable condition. When the great majority nave learned, these causes and are awakened to their downward ten dency, then will they seek a remedy. 1 he only present peacable recourse is the ballot. We cannot hope to retorm the corrupted ones now in power. We must send a few more men to the halls of legislation to be tried and tempted of devil, that they may learn one more lesson in human nature and hu man magnetism. You cannot mix mud and pure water without having muddy water. Nor can you thrust a few hon est well intentioned men among a large majority of rogues without their becom ing befouled and led from a good pur pose, unless they go there with a strong pre determined will and the magnetic power to overcome all opposition. Even though there may a few be able to overcome the temptation and be worthy and true, they will be mis represented by their evil associates, be ostracised by the established order of society where they are, thus making it an uninviting position for ordinary men to seek. Let us examine our prospects of suc cess in the nation, and how long it will take. As is well known there are very few men in either house who vote their independent convictions regardless of party. Then in order for success there must be a majority of new members elected, in loth houses. How shall we get a majority of the senate? It has been suggested that the people in each state meet in convention and nominate a senator, and then vote for candidates for representatives who will pledge i themselves for said nominated senator. Suppose the people are successful in securing the senators they want this laLI, there will yet be a minority in the senate. Then we must wait another two years and there must be at least a two-thirds majority at the two elections who will stand for the people before the senate can be controlled. Then count ing the chances of the new one-third being; indoctrinated by the two-thirds older and experienced members; also counting the chances of being counted out at the polls by raising some legal irregularities designedly plotted, and we can safely calculate that it will take from six to ten years before the people can get the legislation they ask for; and that will be a sutncient time lor pluto cracy to firmly fix its iron grip upon the masses, establish its own imperial government and the people be helpless, our republic gone. I tell you, and feel it in my very bones, that a change for the better can never be made without a struggle. We must make an amend ment to our constitution in the pre scribed way, or otherwise if necessary, be-fore we become powerless to do so. We must have constitutional industrial representation; and each representative body have absolute control of its rep- resentative in the national assembly, as well-as iu the state. No representative of any body low or lugn snoum serve longer than the majority will. Ilespectfullv yours, " L. G.' Sovereign With an aunual output of gold and silver less thau sufficient to pay the in terest on the bonded iudebtedness o the country and with a mortgage in debtedness the interest of which is greater than the annual production of gold and silver throughout the known world, would it not be a fine idea to get down to .a hard money basis, thus contracting the volume of currency, saueeziner the price of labor and its pro ductions down to a trifle as measured with dollars and cents, and swelling the mole-hill of fortune held in dollars and cents by Shylock into a mountain.

One of the most startling and original works ever written. The author a man of wealth and high rocial position, and who writes under a nom de plume, presents, in a startliugly original and wonderfully fascinating work of fiction, a profound study of sciologieal condi tions, and he follows these conditions ott 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 deltly touching the chords of the great heart of humanity ;as a philosjphar analyzing the errors and laying bare the evil tendencies of our age; as a prophet warning tbe race against the gree t and selfishness which are outing away the foundations of society; or as a preacher teaching the broad principles of divine charity and appealing to those who have the power aud the good will to redeem the world. The above book will be sent from this office at the regular retail price. Muslin, fl.25; Paper, 50 cts.
