OBJECT TO SEWALL.
Pittsburg Populist, However, Are
Willing to Indorse Bryan.
Plttsburi?. July 19. The convention of
the People's party adjourned from May
23 and reconvened yesterday for the
purpose of nominating a county ticket,
making preparations for the state con
vention to be held In Pittsburg August
6, and also to give Instructions to the
delegates to the national convention
which meets in St. Louis July I'll.
The convention was lively and lurgely
attended. The committee on resolu
tions reported: "Resolved, That dele
gatus to the national convention en
dorse Bryan and Bewail, conditionally,
so that the Identity of the People's
party be sustained."
A lengthy discussion followed, the ob
jection being against the endorsement
of Sewall. The name of Eugene V.
Debs was suggested as the nominee for
vice-president. Objections to this oc
casioned further discussion. The ques
tion was finally decided by allowing
delegates to exercise their own discre
tion In the choice of vice-president. A
full county ticket was nominated,

Pittsburg, Pa., July 19. A largo and
enthusiastic meeting was held in old
City Hall last night for the purpose of
ratifying tho nominations of Bryan and

belief.

addressed the meeting. The principal
Breakers were Hon. Joseph Sibley, of
Franklin, and Hon. John 15. Keenan,

ratify the nomination of the candidates,
there was no formal action to that ef
fect In the meeting, the speakers con

POWER OF THE FARMERS' ALLIANCE
Under Certain Circumstances the Or
canizulion Might Accomplish Great
Itcsults--Populim Also Suffers
from Lack of Support in Certain
Districts.
From the New York Sun.
Washington, July 19. There are, ap
proximately, 13,500,000 voters In the
United States and 8,500,000 of these, a
preponderating majority, are farmers,
farm laborers, or stock raisers. The
farmers of the country are spoken of
from time to time as an organized
"class" of voters, the general assump
tion seeming to be that when, If ever,
the farmers should act together In sup
port of a candidate or party they would
certainly be successful and accomplish
whatever political action they might be
agreed upon. As an historical fact, the
farmers of the United States have
never, at any time, acted together In
support of one political party, and In
superable obstacles exist against the
possibility of such concurrence of ac
tion In the future.
In recent years the most formidable
organization of fanners for political ac
tion was the Farmers' Alliance estab
lished In St. Louis In December, 18S9,
at the call of the Farmers' and Labor
ers' Union of America, for the "purpose
of bringing together In one organization
all the different bodies of organized far
mers In the country." This Farmers'
Alliance movement, which in the tlrst
year of its existence seemed likely to
exercise u very Important Inlluence up
on American politics, was the out
growth of other previous movements
begun twenty years before far banding
together the farmers of the United
States. Its evolution was Interesting us
showing how, up to a certain point and
within certain limitations, u political
movement may grow sporadically and
then stop. On December 4, 1867, the Na
tional Grange of Farmers was organ
ized In the city of Washington by seven
men, two of them ministers of the gos
pel, two employes of the department of
agriculture, and three farmers. The
Grange secured a large membership
throughout the country, reaching at one
time 450,000; but Its ranks were entered,
If not Invaded, by many persons whose
relation to the farming Interests of the
country was speculative loan agents,
land brokers, insurance agents, "lightning-rod
men," and lawyers.
At a meeting of the National Grange
of Farmers In St. Louis in 1874 thirty
two states were represented, and an
agreement was entered Into by the
delegates (called "patrons") that there
after the membership of the Grangers
should be limited to "persons either
practically engaged In the work of
farming, or so closely connected with
that work as to be, to all Intents and
purposes, farmers." Five years later
the National Grange gave place to the
tlrst Farmers' Alliance, so called, es
tablished in the state of Texas "to op-
! c;-e the moliatlon of puiMic lands" In
the Lone Star Ktftto. In Oi tober. 1880.
tin- Farmers' Alliance wui chat tired
under the lawn of Texas. In January,
1&82, a union was made between the
farmers' organization of Texas and a
somewhat similar one or Loulslnnu, and
thereupon efforts were made In other
states to bring about an organization of
the farmers of the country for political
as well as for "mutual benefit" action.
C. W. McCune, of North Carolina, was
the most active worker In the new
movement, and two years later It had
spread so far that It Included neatly
all the states of the country, and In De
cember, 1889, at the time of the St. Louis
convention, there were 1,250,040 members
of the Farmers' Alliance.
RESULTS IN 1890.
In the elections of the year 1890 a
ground-swell of support for Democratic?
candidates was felt throughout the
country, but the Farmers' Alliance
nominated candidates and supported
them In many of the states. Generally
speaking, however, the support of the
Alliance wan given to the Democratic
nominees, and one rnsult of the election
was the choice of 2;',7 Democratic mem
bers of congress and only 87 Republi
cans, the Farmers' Alliance choosing G
representatives In Kansas (Jerry
Simpson among them), 2 In Nebraska
(William J. Bryan among them), and I
In Minnesota. The Farmers' Alliance
vote In that election was about 240,000,
or In Kansas, 63,000; South Dakota. 49.
000; Nebraska, 40,000, and Minnesota,
25.000. In the southern slates, then un
der the immediate shadow of the Force
bill, with Its menace of a return to ne
gro domination, the members of the
Farmers' All'ance voted generally for
the Democratic candidates, and were
opposed to separate political action un
til what wa3 to them a more Important
question than "the spoliation of public
lands" or alien ownership of farming
property or excessive rates In railroad
transportation could be, or should be,
disposed of. In the elections of 1891 the
Farmers' Alliance members had pre
pared for political action at "the Cin
cinnati Conference" held on May 19,
and participated In by 1,418 delegates,
who In a formal manner put in motion
the Populist party which nominated
James A. Weaver for president at the
Omaha convention of July 4. 1892, and
is to hold its second national conven
tion at St. Louis next week.
It hus thus far been found impossible
to organize effectively, so as to consoli
date the vote of Its members, the farm
ers' organizations of the United States,
and the reason of this Is not hard to
find. Outside of a small circle of persist
ent and unpractical agitators active in
every "new movement," the farmers of
the United States are either Democrats
or Republicans and separate on party
lines when political questions are to be
derided. It occasionally happens, it Is
true, that the majority of the farmers
of a state will vote for the retention of
the party In power when harvests are
large and prices for farm products are
high, concurrently. It often happens,
too, that the farmers will vote against
the party In power when prices range
at a low level or there has been a blight
ed or Inferior harvest. But as a rule
the farmers separate on straight polit
ical lines, and every effort, no matter
how promising at first, to get them to
do otherwise falls in the end.
POPULISTS NOT FARMERS.
The best organized branch of the
Populist party is not to be found In any
of the farming regions of the country,
but among the miners. The element of
political cohesion Is much stronger
among miners than It is among agricul
turists, and this was shown in the presi
dential election of 1892 most strikingly.
In Kansas, which Is essentially, and, in
deed, typically, the farming state of
the country, with a yield In 1887 of 140,
000,000 bushels of corn, 60,000,000 bushels
of wheat, and 35,000,000 bushel of oats.
General Harrison la the election of 1888,
before the establishment of the Popu
list party and with every condition favoring-
the Republican party, polled 64
per cent, of the vote of the Sunflower
state. In 1892, with the Populist party
thoroughly organized among the farm
ers, with a tidal wave of popular hos
tility against the Republicans and some
of the state government and nearly all
the local administration In the hands of
the Populists, Mr. Harrison polled 48
per cent, of the total vote of Kansas a
very small reduction, though large
enough to lose the electoral vote of
Kansas to the Republicans. Nevada, a
typical mining state, with a mineral
product of gold, olivet, lead and copper
in the year preceding to the value of
more than $8,000,000, voted for the Popu
list electors in 1892, while in 18S8 It had
gone Republican. In that year (1888)
Mr. Harrison had received 57 per cent.
of the vote of Nevada. Then came the
Populist movement, and In 1892 Gen.
Harrison obtained only 23 per cent, of
the vote of the mining camp state, a
falling off unparalleled In any other
state of the country.
The influence of farmers on the poll
tics of the United States would be
enormous If It were found feasible to
organize them so that they would vote
on the lines of occupation and business
pursuit and not on the old and former
political lines. But this, evidently, can
not be done, and new political parties,
therefore, appeal with more confidence
and success to any other class of voters
than the farmers. Tha Populist party
at the present time Is strongest among
the miners and lumbermen stronger
among these In proportion to their num
bers than among the farmers of the
country, and in those states like Michi
gan, Maine, Oregon, and Washington,
In which the lumbering Interest Is an
Important one, as well as In those states
like Colorzado, Idaho, Montana, in
which the mining Interests are Import
ant, the gains of Populists or stlverites
are likely to be-much mora noticeable
than In the rural or bucolic regions of
the country, where the Intolerance of
the farmers to uniform political uctibn
Is such that the most eloquent and mov
ing appeals of campaign orators seem
to have very little effect. The problem
of "uniting the farmers" for either po
litical party has never been solved, and
Is likely never to be, in the L'ulted
Stutes.
WILLIAMS EXPLAINS.
In an Editorial in (be Lawrence Sua He
Gives Reasons for Advocating the
Free Coinage of Silver.
Lawrence, Mats., July 18. An editor
ial appeared In the Lawrence Sunday
Sun today signed by George Frank Wil
liams, In which he gives some of the
reasons that led him to the advocacy
of free coinage cf silver by the United
States at the ratio of sixteen to one.
The first place he says that the present
money system is u. failure. It brought
us In 1893 to panic. Prices have fallen
faster In the last three years than ever
before. Gold, which is one of the great
est necessities In this emergency, Is
leaving the country by constant drain
on the treasury, and It Is clear that the
gold standard Is under such terrlbl.
strain that another panic may result,
which will Involve the failure of the
gold standard, and we shall then arrive
at a silver Standard whether we wish It
or not.
There Is no hope In the precait Bltuu
t!on and it is difficult tj sec lu,w u sys
tem which is toppling under the pie -cut
administration can he expected to jtand
and be strengthened under such a man
as McKinley.
No man can say exactly what will be
the result of free coinage of silver as
the problem Is a new one, but it seems
to some that the country can only gain
by It, and lie has confidence that there
would bf no permanent premium on
gold by reason of It. But even If the sil
ver dollars ought to be at some discount
this process of scaling debt would be
much healthier than the bankruptcy of
the whole country under the present
system.
CRIME COMES TO LIGHT.
Claimant for n Tract of Land Killed
and Buried in a Cornfield.
Perry, O. T., July 19. A dark murder
case came to light in the eastern part of
this county today. Ten days ago Allen
Cook, lawyer and farmer, disappeared,
and today his body was found burled in
a cornfield on the same tract of land he
was claiming. Charles Hyatt, W. II.
Bennett and A. J. Montgomery have
been arrested, charged with murdering
Cook while he was passing through the
cornfield, and there Interring the body.
Bennett, one of the accused, and Cook
were claimants for the same tract of
land.
BURNED WITH VITRIOL.
Jealous Wile's Fiendish Revenge on
Iter Supposed liivnl.
Butte, Mont.. July 19. Mrs. Edwnrd
Heinbach, wife of the manager of the
Boston and Montana Mining company,
last evening threw a pint of vitriol In
the face of Mrs. Thomas Shelling, whom,
she suspected of receiving attentions
from her husband.
The fluid burned almost every shred
of clothing off the woman's body; her
lace and body were burned in a most
frlgthful manner, and the sight of both
eyes probably destroyed. Mrs. Hein
bach and her sister, who accompanied
her, are in jail.
MATRIMONIAL YOKE IS GALLING.
Prominent New York Educator Seeks
Divorce in Oklahoma.
Perry, O. T., July 19. Dr. Alfred C.
Carpenter, late professor In the New
Yok City Medical school, and prom
inently known In the east, has brought
suit here for divorce from his wife, Car
oline, charging gross neglect, cruelty
and abandonment.
Carpenter also charges his wife with
attempting to kill him while he wan
asleep.

FEELING THE PULSE
ON SILVER ISSUE
Result of the Pittsburg Leader's Canvass
' on Coinage Questkn.
EAGER DEMAND FOR INFORMATION
The Average Voter Knows Little or
Nothing About the Currency Ques
tions and Is Anxiously Awaiting for
Iuxtructioif-Silvcr Sentiment in the
Coal Regions.
Pittsburg,. July 19. During last week
the Leader completed a canvass of the
state for the purpose of ascertaining the
sentiment of Pennsylvania voters on
the doctrine of free silver, as proclaimed
In the Democratic national platform.
The result of the inquiry, which was
pursued by staff representatives who
represented nearly every county In the
state, supplemented by statements from
trustworthy correspondents, was pub
lished this morning.
It was found that in all parts of the
Btate there is an eager demand for In
formation on the subject and In the
northwest and In the tier of counties
along the southwestern border, and In
the anthracite coal region there Is a
marked predilection for silver.
In the northwestern tier the situa
tion Is marked by uncertainty. Erie
and Crawford counties are full of free
sliver talk. Men are waiting for devel
opments of the campaign, many of the
people who know they know little about
finance are waiting to be Informed.
Greene county, known as the Gibraltar
of the Pennsylvania Democracy, ac
cepts the ticket, while Somerset, Bed
ford and Fulton are to an extent also
Infected with the new doctrine. In the
Cumberland valley, where are located
Yolk, Franklin, Adams and Cumber
land counties, there is a marked dispo
sition to accept the free coinage plan
as a "sure cure" for national Ills.
IN THE MIXING REGION.
The tnest noteworthy infatuation
with the new theory, however, Is In tho
mining counties of Lackawanna, Lu
zerne, Schuylkill and Lycoming, in
Northumberland and the smaller coun
ties surrounding It and Chester county
lying south cf Philadelphia. Some
sporadic evidences of favor toward free
coinage doctrines are to be found In
Lancaster, Montgomery, Dauphin and
other counties east of the mountains;
but In these places discussion is more
rife than actual conviction. The Demo
cratic leaders who have accorded tho
new declarations have become Imbued
with renewed hope and are making
claims that their representation In the
next legislature be much Increased and
the Pennsylvania delegation to con
gress will include many more than two
Democratic congressmen.
The Republican loaders admit that
the growth of the silver sentiment Is
unitizing-, and that it will require a care
ful and laborious campaign to overcome
It. Many of thtrn regard the enthus
iasm as spasmodic, and predict a fall
ing off In It when the campaign opens
and the electors of the state have an
opportunity to hear the subjects dis
cussed by both sides.

Huntingdon, Pa., July 19. Thre? re
