Or help to aid the toiler
More justice to secure
If I would be a lady
I must be down to ttt d
Content to see men surfer.
To see bsbcs weai and co'A.
Must love to ace tlie alien
Rab sisters of their home
And Jai.y pray to bylot k
Quick let "thy kingdom came."
But well we know eu:h lad ea
No heroes ever bote.
The Blotters of all patriots
Now as in days of yore.
Have lovers of true freedom
And ciiua! jus. ice '-ten:
Ana valued God's approval
Above tlis praise of men.
So. I'll ot bo a lady
And wiih the robbers stand,
Content to have injustice
Still flourish in our hind.

Bestowed upon his mother

Wiikukas, A penalty of 20 per cent is
charged to all' persons upon ridei-min

Wiikukas, Such extreme rates ot in

"That. .Mr. Poynter need'- no eulou-y is a

I am Uimoimhlv familiar with Mr.
Poynter'.. public life for the iat three !

perfectly as to his qualifications, but it

While in this city frequently lie ir re
i;;arks mruie about the people's purty like
this: " The people's par'y is dying out
both in Western Nebraska, and in Kan

have traveled through a larire portion of
Kansas and western Nebraska, and I find
things very different from what I expec
ted. The members ' the new party are
confident, and enthusiastic. I took the
pains to inquire n si-veral different towns
and vbiaues and the invariable answ er
was: "You can rest .assured that we are
gamini; ground every day. in tunny
places they assured nie thai there are
three independents to one democrat or
republican. It looks to mo like it. is the
political Mineral of the oilier fellows that
is most .stroiiL'ly indicated by the hand
writing on the wall. The old parties
make ,i treat mistake when thev think
the Alliance is all of the people's party.
They fortret that there are thousands of

strong independents us the Alliance

Mr. L. M. Putney of Aulctle sends us a

The article is written by a young man

their failure to vo'e right during tho past
twenty-live years blaming them for the
evils that tilibct the country. There is
mm h ground frr such an "arraig iment,
