jfrain to TUB BBJ The call for the inds *
pendent convention whiuh m ata here to *
mflrro v' was issued bv Jonathan bhearar.
once a grsenbncker and .now editor of an
alliance paper at Red On < { .
A pc * nle ona thou'Kind is provided for.
but it Is not expected that the convention
will be mods ap to any great extent nf rasu-
larly elected delegates. The schema of lim
iting the total defecation from any one
cannty w ten is causing tiaeh feeling , esoe-
cinlly hi sounties like Polk , which sends
from thirty to forty delt'ttates to republican
and democratic conventions ,
A glance at the signatures appended to the
call would Indicate that tae convention will
be "most fearfully and wonderfully made , "
and anything like harmony in its delibera
tions will be utterly oat of the question
unless the vigorous application of the gas
rale shuts off the visionary and fanatical
element. Tha one patent fact that stands
out in oold relief and cannot
be dlsffliised is that It will
be an old umo creeubocic convention , and ,
like all crevious conventions of this charac
ter , will be dominated by the master ciiad of
J. B. Weaver.
Of the JUO names icned to the call more
than four-fi'tti have at one time or another
affiliated with the creenbttck or union labor
parties , and Weaver s otSce in this city is
now bemcT'ttE'Hl oa Qendiiilarters for the ath-
ennir clans , whera most of the preliminary
work of tne convention will belone ,
Rev Frank W. Evans , tae well / < aown
Metaod.st divine , had been selected by the
leaders Jor temporary chairman , and it was
expected that this eloquent expounder of the
CTspol would electrify the convention with
one of his old time speeches. But Elder
Evans Is a radical and uncamnramiMag pro-
hibiQonist , and miatrustinir the malie-up of
this convention and feanng that it will not
commit itself to his pet bobbv.
ne armlv declines the honor , and has even
sone so far as to declare that he never au
thorized the use of bui name in connection
with the movement. Some le-ser h ht will
have to be selected for this position , and Just
now even the leaders do not inow who be
will be
General \Veaver can have the per > itun him
self if he desires it. as well as that of per
manent chairman. However , he will liouot-
icas prefer to remain on tne outside a&d puii
rhfvires ind not make iu.abeil conspicuous
in the new movement.
There will be i r g-jlar circus in the com
mittee on resolutions on the woman auirair"
and prohibition questions , and the fiirnt may
even be earned into the convention.
Thomas G. Orwitr , the well known pro-
hibitiouj.t of this atv , signiM the call.
but -vos beaten for deienta "at the county
ouvennon Friday However he is a
man of the most dettirmmed character
and txfesesses no small amount of political
shrewdness , and it will occasion no surprise
if he finds a beat on the convention as a
proxy. The qu < ition will -surely be brouiiat
up m some form. It is an undoubted fact
that a large majontv of the convention will
be in favor af maintaining Uie present pro
hibitory ooiicy , out whether it will maxe
this a pion c m the platform or remain silent
is an op-n question.
some of the leaders already on the ground
are in favor of adopunsr tn plan of tha Cin
cinnati conference and relegating the pro-
lioition question to the various legislative
districts as a. "local iss > ue. "
This convention meets under adverse cir
cumstances and it is doubtful if tha attend
ance is much larzer than the so-called mde-
aendent convention of lost year.
The iowa Homestead , the lending
alliance paper , is decidedly opposed to
this movement , and even tne Des Momes
Xexvs , a profe-sei independent paner , urns
thecolii shoulder , for the ailejred tcam that
it may defeat or at M.ist end-m er prob.m-
tion. Tbe National alliance wtiicn has nearly
two thousand subordinate lodsres in this
-.Late a.is always been noa-partisan and Sec-
ceuiry Post has stnetiv maintamod this
policy , hoidiac the ocal alliances armly to
this policy so that no alliance will be officially
represeuted , except tnose that have receatl-
joined the boutaeraUlumce and Indubtriol
Cnion.
Ono of the queer thincs connected with
this movement is ita capacity to draw the
disgruntled and discoawuteJ political
elements into its arms , several prohibition
justices whu were making monny out of the
ittemnta to enforce the Uuv and piling up
largo fets , who were an ceremoniously
bounced bv the republicans , have identified
taemsulves with the independent party , and
tt la said taat even the autonous searcher"
Pierce , Potts and Hamilton will soon become
full dedired independents.
Tbera u a wonderful dearth of candidates
for the various otHcea , though u is ukely that
a numOer will develop later in the day" Xo
une seems to care to lead tne forlorn aope.
President Furrow a tae state alliance , who
bas lately been playing fast ana loose , and
who u. not averse to Decoding a candidate
were there the sliirntaat show af success , has
( sept himself out of tae way and will dis-
creeuy wait for another vea'r or until the
party la out of its swaddlingclothes. . He
mav be named , however for the position.
The afternoon tram- only brought in strag-
? litig deleiriltis. The majority of tnu delega
tions will not get bera until late m the ai nt
jr on aariy morning trams. It is now oon-
aded taat tte convention wul not oe as urrc
