THE ALLIANCE -INDEPENDENT. 11 SOUTH CAROLINA. This morning's dispatches convey the pleasing intelligence that South Caro lina is all right. Two years ago Mr. Tillman was elected governor as an in dependent, defeating the regular dem ocratic nominee. The primary elec tion was held August 30, and was a complete victory for the independent people. Tillman will bo renominated and re-elected. The reports from most parts of the state shows that the re form party will capture five of the seven congressmen and nearly all of tho coun ty offices throughout tho state. Northern men and northern papers that have been shouting about I he in dependent party being organized sim ply to break down tho republican party, must, by this time, bo forced to ac knowledge that- tho democratic party Js being broken down somewhat also by the independent movement. The truth must dawn upon the public soon that this is indoed a people's movement and is making great inroads upon both old parties. Wherever the republicans arc in the majority the people's party is a menace to the repub licans, and wherever tho democrats have control the new movement is a menace to them. The people's party cares nothing for either of tho old parties and is going in to win regard less of tho effect upon those old parties The success of tho people's party prob ably means the dissolution of one of the old organizations. Which one it shall be is a matter of no concern whatevi r to th.j independents. j TAYLOR AS A HOODOO- The Evening News published a re port of Rosewater's speech before the rcpubl'can state committee whiih it vouches for as verbatim. The follow ing is what he said concerning the ab duction of Taylor: ' I will go back now to the time when Colonel Majors w as president of tho senate by virtue of hs office of lieuten ant governor, and when Walt Seeley was his private secretary. I allude to the abduction or disappearance of Sena tor Taylor of Loup county at the time of tho noted seuator'al deadlock. Mr. Taylor was in Omaha three or four days ago and I have in my possession a letter from h'm which places Mr. Seeley in a vo y unenviable liht. A private detective, whose name I vill not divulge, has been working on the case and from the facts which he has gathered it appears to be plaus bio that iho arrangements for Mr Taylor'.-i dis'pp arauce were made by Mr Seeley and probably with the connivance of Col Majors. It is stated th-'t Mr. Seeley was to draw Senator Taylor's pay from tho s' ate, and it is now charged that Seeley did draw this pay and withhold the same. These facts are all in the possession of a detective who has been working up the cae and may be considered more fill i j at any time. This is decidedly interesting and to doubt stric ly true. It. is to bj hoped Mr. Rosewater will proceed to "consid er these facts more fully." Perhaps he will kindly publish Taylor's letter cr better still bring Taylor himself in'o the political arena. Taylor may yet become a veritable hoodoo to several republican politicians, particularly Col. Tom Majors, and his man Friday, Walt Seeley. The Illinois republican state central committee has had a meeting and has made a request upon Foot Print Carter for thirty-five speakers of national reputation lo be sent into that state. The list inciudes such men as Gov. Mc Kinley, ex-Sena'or Ingalls, lion. John M. Thurs'on, Senator Sherman, Gov ernor Chase of Indiana, ex-Senator IT IS IK OEDEE i'or wan aeeiey to explain that "in famous under-handed business" which he carried on in tho capitol as Majors' man Friday. For Col. Tom Majors to state posi tively whether or not he is a member of the A. P. A. For Rosewater to state definitely whether or not he is supporting Col Majors. For Taylor to explain the inside fac!s of that high-handed conspiracy to the best of his knowledge and ability. Uor Bunnell to naruo over a few of the "worse things which are occurring all the time."- . m iHEjssueor the present campaign between Morton and Crounso is tho railroad question. Not railroad regu lation, oh! no, but railroad support. Which one is to have it? That h the great political question of the day. WHEN the governor of the stato ot Kansas charges a foul murder to the entire membership of an alliance, the public must feel that tho republican governor is nam up for campaign thunder. The thinsr is an outrage and will certainly react to the injury of the governor and his party.'

Om aha Bee. . That's rather severe on the republi can candidate for governor. The Bee should have Mr. Crounse muzzled at once before he does any more damage. How many republicans in Nebraska do not know how thev will vote on governor until the railroad managers decide whether to throw the state to Crounse or to Morton? This matter now hangs in the balance. If Crounse does not make his peace with them, the railroads will go to Morton. H6w many republicans are satisfied to be the stock in trade of the railroad poli ticians? There are 20,000 republicans in Nebraska who are so considered by the ring masters, and these merchant able votes are expected to defeat Van Wyck by being thrown in a body to Crounse or to Morton just as may be determined by the political managers. Pretty state of things, isn't it? Is it any wonder that respectable repulli cans, by the thousands are deciding to vo.e the independent ticket and turn the rascals out? The wonder is that the thing has been delayed eo loig. News favorab'e to the people's party has been almost wholly excluded from the a social ed press dispatches during tho past spring and summer. But a change ha been forced upon tho great p ipers wlich wish to keep abreast of the times. There is so much in the way of people's party news and the peo ple are so eager to have it that tho great dailies arc yielding to the inevi table and the news begins to come. This morning's State Journal was well died with telegrams announcing the splits in republican and democratic parties in - several states, the capture of the entire demo cratic organization in one state by the alliance and the general success of the independent movement in various quarters. The - people's party has reached a condition of import aoco that forces recognition from its enemies. A subsidized press can no longer keep its 1892. Farmers Supply & Grain Co.
