12 THE ALLIANCE -INDEPENDENT. SHRADER ASD MAJORS. What has Tom Majors ever done to recommend him to the people of Ne braska? He has never introduced or championed a solitary measure in the interest of the people. Ho is a man of no ability, a demagoge, and a corpora tion tool. His whole political capital consists of a blue-shirt and a war record. He was too bijj a coward to meet Shrader on the stump, and now he is going about over the state slandering Shrader as an "anarchist", and one who is "ashamed of bis grand amy button." Shrader was just as brave and loyal a soldier as Majors, and is just as proud of his grand army button. But he doesn't go about over the state parading these things before the people all the time. lie speaks for a cause as great and noble as that for which he fought thirty years ago. He stood for justice and freedom then, and he stands for the samo now. But Majors now stands as an advocate and a tool of the people's oppressors, and tries to gain sympathy by parad ing his war record of thirty years ago. Ho is a cowardly demagogue, and a llftnderer. The railroads .want Majors elected because ho would be exceedingly use ful to them as presiding officer in the senate. For that very reason the voters of the state will see that he is over whelmingly defeated and Shrader tri umphantly elected. ME, BUSHNELL, STAND UP. ' The Lincoln Call (sometimes very aptly referred to as the Gall) has under taken the impossible task of electing a republican legislature. In Monday's issue the editor gives his reasons why a republican legislature should be elected: ' A republican legislature is necessary to protect this state from the ill name that would come to it from having calamity doctors in power; to protect this state from reckless extravagance, the calamity legislature of two years ago being the most prolifigate and ex travagant by over a quarter of a mil lion dollars of any legislature that ever assembled in the state. The editor of the Call is a contempt ible fa sifier and slanderer. He knows that the last legislature was neither reckless nor extravagant. We defy him to go into the figures and show that it was. We hare shown in this issue of The Alliance-Independent that the last legislature appropriated $559,617 for necessary additions and improvements in our state institutions, and for other extraordinary purposes, and we defy him to show that these appropriations were not necessary and proper. If they were not why did not the editor of the Call condemn and oppose them at the time they were made? Let' him look over his files and see if he opposed any of these appro priations. O, no, just then he was playing the farmer legislators for suckers, pretending to be "almost in dependent" fin order to secure a few subscribers for his alleged newspaper. Further the republican state officers recommended in . the auditor's report for December, 1890, appropriations for the maintenance of state Institutions far in excess of those actually made. And we defy the editor of the Call to prove tho contrary. Further, the appropriations for the maintainance of state institutions were less in almost every case than were those made be the legislature of 1889, and we defy the editor of the Call to show the contrary.

In a word, wo defy the editor of the Call to show by analysis and classification of the figures given in the auditor's reports, that he is not a liar and a slanderer. IN TOWNS AND CITIES. Tho greatest surprise of this cam paign will bo in the towns and cities. There are thousands of business and professional men on whom the bonds of party rest lightly. Many of them have already decided to give the indepen dents a fair trial for the next two years. And thousands more can be won by earnest judicious - work between now and electiou day. . 'Copies of our campaign sheet should be distributed through every town and city in the state. . More good can be accomplished in this way than in any other. Resolutions of Condolence. The publication of these resolutions has been delayed on account of the loss manuscript first sent in. Editor. Whereas, The Allwise Ruler of the universe has in His wisdom seen fit to remove from earth by death our be loved brother, John S. Mann, and transport him to higher fields of use fulness in the kingdom above. While we keenly feel our great loss we bow in humble submission to His Divine will acknowledging His supreme right to take that which He gave. Therefore be it Resolved, That Oak Valley Alliance No. 1354, of which he was a worthy and respected member, has sustained a great loss. His frank open manner and outspoken opinions !won the respect of all the members. His volleys of wit and humor made him a favorite with his associates. He was broad minded, noble-hearted and generous to a fault. His industrious habits, manly and honorable dealings with his fellow men won him the confidence of all he came in contact with in a business capacity. In his death the world has lost a noble and worthy citizen, his parents a dutiful and effectionate son, the brother and sisters an effectionate and loving brother. Resolved, That we tender to the family upon whom the shadows have fallen so deeply, our heartfelt sympa thy, assuring them that we sorrow with them in unfeigned grief in this their sad bereavement. Resolved, That a copy of these resolu tions be spread upon records of the alliance and also that they be published in the alliance papers and a copy be presented to the family of the deceased brother. By order of the Alliance. Hiram Pollay, ; A. Housel, ' M. B. Donahue, Committee. 50 SPANISH JACKS FOR SALE.
