The Alliance is beginning an active

Ohio. The fallowing extract is from a
letter written to the Reform Press Bnrean
by Mr. H. E. Parker, secretary of the
•Ute Alliance:

hearty good will.
“In many counties local unions of the
two bodies have been formed for more
. affective work.
"Every energy of these organizations
will be directed toward controlling the
legislature.4 In no other way can a revo-

policy be brought about
“The movement gains in force and en-

absolute—unanimity among their breth-
ren north, south, east and west on Al-
liance principles And demands.
For several months past the people
who read the great partisan daily papers
of the country have been told almost
every day that the Alliance was divid-
ing, disintegrating and going to pieoes
generally. Perhaps they really thought
so; but they have discovered the colos-
sal error nnder which they were labor-
ing, and now at least one of them has
acknowledged as much, and batsqfar for-
got itself as to actually suggest that the
demands of the Allianoe “now be dis-
cussed in a fair way.”

The four states whi<jh held their meet-
ings last Week were Virginia. Georgia,
Tefas and Arkansas.
The Virginia meeting bad representa-

—one of’ the best and grandest that ever
assembled in the “Old Dominion.” The
Ocala platform, including the subtreas-

and a resolution was passed by the Alii,
ance giving our senators and congress-
men to “understand that we demand the
enactment into law of the snbtreasnry
plan or something better.”

The Georgia Alliance had the grandest
meeting it has ever known. There was
a representative present from every
county in the state. Hon. L. F. Living-
ston was unanimously re-elected presi-
dent of the state Alliance, and the snb-
treasnry plan was indorsed by every per-
son at the meeting—male and female—
amid the most unbounded enthusiasm
and earnestness. Among other actions

Ihrooghoot the Mato, far the
be a great interstate meeting, bnt the
only people present, outside of Texas,
were a man train Mississippi and one
from Missouri. There were only thirty-
seven men at that meeting. And yet
column after column of telegraphic dis-
patches was sent all through the coun-
try stating that this convention had re-
pudiated the snbtreasnry, and that the
Alliance was going all to pieces over the
matter. '
Now, just see the work of the real Al-
liance meeting. Out of the 121 counties
represented there could not be found a
dozen men who opposed the subtreas-
ury, and its indorsement was practically
unanimous by the entire state. Horn
Evan Jones, who is an ardent and ear-
nest supporter of the sflbtreastity, was
unanimously re-elected president, and
N. & HALL, PRESIDENT OF MISSOURI AL-
LIANCE.
The mutterings of discontent, although
heretofore disregarded, have been uni-
versal. They could find no expression
in the platform of any existing political
party, and therefore have been con-
temned as well as unheeded. These mnt-
teriugs have at length found voice in a
new political organization, and their
long pent up expression will undoubt-
edly be the great slogan of the ooming
presidential contest Hence it is of the
most vital concern to the party itself, as
well as to the people whose interests ii
would subserve, that its financial policy
should be one that can be defended, upon
the ground* of justice, of .public neces-
sity sad of btu&aees principles. If such
a policy can be formulated th^ young

curity for a government loan than the
real property of the nation. If the loan
is placed upon such property at one-half
or one-third of its real value, it is as se-
cure as the government itself, and the
currency based upon such a loan is af
good as a government bond or gold and
silver.
The main argument against such a pol-
icy is based upon its supposed impractica-
bility. This has been answered by stub-
born facts. Tbe state of Oregon has now
more than two million dollars of school
money loaned out npon the improved
farm property of the state. The amount
of the loan is fixed at one-third of the
fairly appraised value of the farm. Tin
entire management of the loan is con-
fided to the state school land board, con-
sisting of the governor, secretary ol
state and state treasurer, and is Without
any cost to the state other thhh that in
volved in the salaries paid to tMd mem-
bers of the board for their iratir* official
duties, amounting in all to $3,800 per
annum. The applicant pays tor the ex-
amination of the title to his IfUd1 i|Ud its

Into currency.
Tbe loaning of money by the govern-
ment at 4 per cent, would at once fix
that rate throughout the country with-
out any other or further legislation, and
the capital now employed at ruinous
rates of interest as leeches npon the peo-
ple. thereby exhausting the life blood
from all of onr industrial pursuits,
wonld, by the conditions confronting it,
be invested to a large extent in govern-
ment securities, thereby furnishing a
portion of the currency required, or. if
not so invested, it wonld be compelled to
seek out ilew enterprises for its employ-
ment Thus the accumulated wealth of
our plethoric capitalists, now overbur-
dening onr national, industries with its
ruinous exactions, checked in its un-
licensed power, wonld patiently and ef-
ectively subserve the common weal
The inauguration of such a fiscal policy
wonld open a new and brighter era in
the history of onr country. The vast
and rapid accumulation of wealth in the
hands of the few and the impoverish-
ment of the many by the excessive rates
charged for the use of money wonld at
once cease, and money, being cheap,
wonld open up new avenues of industry
and give renewed impetus to trade and
increased employment to labor, and, be-
ing stable in value and sufficient in vol-
ume, would impart security to every en-
terprise and fair remuneration . to every
laudable calling. And thus would the
general government at last fulfill its con-
stitutional duty to the people by regu-
lating the value of money, which it has
never yet done, and never can fully do
until by some such means as is proposed
it regulates the interest which it shall
bear. The fixing of rates of interest on
money regulates, in the main, its value.
The only class that would not be pecun-
iarily benefited by the adoptjon of such a
fiscal system would be that class that
has been enriched by the existing finan-
cial policy of the government, and that

lifo blood from the industrial classes of
the country by the excessive rates of in-
