HOUSING TIMK IN PIERCE CO. Greene's Eloquence Demoralizes the G.O.P.-Tho Kenubltcm "Flying Squadron." Plainview, Nob., Oct. 24, 1892. Editor Alliance-Independent: On October 2 1st, at 2 o'clock p. m., Mr. Greene of Kearney and J. V. Wolfe addressed a lirg3 anl enthusiastic mooting at this place, and although thero were no special trains ran for tho occasion and no fro3 passes on regular train. The largo opera houso was filled to overflowing with voters. Mr. Gre.no spoke for about two hours amid thunders of applause, and was specially requested to "Go on with his sledgo hammer blows" but owing to the fact that parties at Randolph, twenty-four miles distant had como for him to go thero and speak in the evening he had to stop. Those that were a straddlo of tho fence who heard him didn't wait to jump but just fell over on the people's side. Greeno is a good one. Ho is worse than a Nebraska blizzard among thogo. p.'s He makes it so plain and poinied that there is nothing to to said against him. By tre way, we have a largo town Hag. On that day one or two old moss baeka (it's so mean I won't charge it to the party) tried to steal that Haft so we could not use it. They had "Harrison and Reid" painted on a poster to pin to it for use at a republican rally here on the 22nd. They kept that flag hid until nearly noon when things got so hot it put in an appearance of itself just walked right up and climbed the Hag staff. No one knows whore it came from, but it came and ' Harrison and Reid" weren't pinned on it either. That made somo votes and then Grefno made some more. Then camo tho 22nJ, the day tho re publicans had advertised far and wide. Meiklejohn was to bo here. Prophets, priests and silver tongues of thu order were advertised on large posters all over the country. There was ti bo an "ox" roasted, special trains were to b3 run, and were ruu for tho occas'on. At noon but few parsons were seen on the streets of Plainview, and thoy were nearly all independents. After noon at 2:30. carao the special with men, women and children from Illinois, Iowa and a few persons packed up of tho "Flying Squadron" of Nebraska along the lino. We have a "flying republican squadron" up here. Every time there is a republican meet ing the railroads run in- a special train, and every time they bring in tho sami persons. It must be tiresome business but they haro to .do it to get a crowd. Well, spoaking time came at last, and tho house which had been filled with voters to hear jGrcena and Wolfe was tilled nrain with one-sixth republican crats and tho rest women and children. This is the literal tru'h. Perkins of Sioux City was tho first sneaker. He is very dry and shows neither honesty of purposo nor sym pathy with tho people. Many left the hou-;e. Th.jy couldn't stand it. Meikle iohn didn come. Tho roasted ox was a heifer calf. The "flying squadron" won't bo in it November 8th. Tho votes will go to Weaver, Van Wyck, Poyntcr, and the rest of the people's ticket and don't you forget it. G. T, Kklley. Labor, land and trcnsi ortatlon Are demanding legislation, Hy the state and by the nation: Hear tbo mlKhty cry . Of the hone.st poor producer, Who are losers, losera, lonero! 'Beggars never whould bo choosers," I.sthe sad reply! But those beggars are uniting, Educating, reading, writing; (Jetting ready for the lighting 8th November morn! They have read the constitution; They are brightening up on dishing: There will bo a revolution, Sure as you are born! -Ex. For right Is right, since Hod is (Jod, And right the day must win; To doubt it would be sacrilege, To falter would be sin." -Ex. The time has come when men with hearts and brain Must rise and take the misdirected reins Of government, too long left in the hands Of tricksters and thieves. He who cands And sees the mighty vehicle of State Hauled through the mire to some ignoble fate Aid makes noe such bold protest as he can, Is no American. -Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Wheat is going down, down, down. Money is going up, up, up. The dollar buys much more than formerly; that is a fact except incases of debt, interest, taxes and such other items as'tho trusts and monopolists have for sale. The Coming Crisis. The Nicarauga canal thieve 3 are fill ing tho press with seduolivc, lying articles about the beauties of this gov ernment giving thera 1100,000,000 to b iild tho canal for tho benefit of com merce, and then let them rob the pub lic to their hearts content as have the subsidized railroads.
