The details, however, of party machinery were differ ent i'roni what they now are the pres ident being iitfminated by, Congressional caucusse.s and State - legislatures until the present mode of nominations bv - national conventions wai-j inaugurated in 1832. Parties Iiaveexjsted and still continue to exist. 'J'iiere have been twenty-seven, including as parties the "tuids, ' anti-al.isons, aujl other fac tious, and it ma' be supposed some were made to order to suit certain in terests; but. at the beginning of each party, usually, 'there has been some re form to effect, or some s dleme to op p ise.jmie end in view, i. jo., they were die "outgrow of iHce-sijf y,"' real or supposed. The lives of I these part ies li. v I e -n measured to ajgreat txiei.t ly the end they had m vjew, and lh ' success with which t lie yi have met at the hands of tht; people, j The great r n umber have lived to see llieeud tiie advocated .achieved or unmistakably re jected I iy the people.

The parties whosi platfornn have been the most equivocal, and which have the least mindful o the people, have achieved most of the Hesh-pots of oiKce for their leaders. Wattersoa's tariff plank in the d .'mocratie plat form, lie says, was a "straddle,'' and gained the success for that party in lSSf, and the clearly detined position ot that party in 1SS8 brough fits defeat. The cle.ir-eut views are ruinous to p.-irty success. The sub-trtasiuy jdan, ac cording to Watterson's ' logic, would v undoubtedly bring defeat; but put it "equal rights to all an djlfpecial privi leges to iione,'' more money and a li -x-ible. volume, or such adjustment of the finances ot our country as will relieve the dear beloved p?oj!e, and success comes, while the party is left to fuHiii its obligation by creating a banking law by which a favored : few are per mitted to control the finances of the many; by iucreasingvUie amount of silver coined per month, and with drawing at the same time greenbacks. making both nioi-e money and a il.'X- lljle voluiuo; or ly deniOpetlzmg sd ver. making a gold stanjdard, thereuy le- lieving me uear oeiuveu people, tnose who furnished 'the campaign "boodle." This state of aifairs, ; this equivoca tion and d'-ceit has existed for the last decade on the part of (lie leading par ties in America..

Lurtv, in his great speech in Peters burg, Va., in ISSt), pr.ii-ed Muhone for tight ng so bravely when Grant had his private earthquake for the beneiit of the public ConfedeHtcy, till he had the low statue of "JJilly" towering head and st.oulders above luibert K. Lee, and gave Mahonefs lighting qual ities, and his efforts for maintaining slavery as reason why tho people sijoul t vote for him. Then turning to die, crowd of colored -people assembled lie told them they could not affard to desert Mali one and his party, for they !rad freed the "niggers" and brought rhem up out of the hojise'of lioud age. Kx-Senator Moore, at j Hentsville, Va., in the year after, devoted abnt two ifiirs to aiosing Malione and his am, alone with anybody else who tlareVl opjinse or vote against his party, closed Ifis addrpss with a few reiiiarks to the" "horny listed sons of toil, th1 honest yeomanry, and tliede.tr people." lie admitted that Ihir condition had grown worse under the administration of his party, but clearly demonstrated that they would be utterly ruinel if they submitted' the reins of govern ment to the opposite parly. The fa miliar quotation at once arose: Yon shall and you shan't, Vou will and you-won't; You'll be damned if you do, You'll be d untied if you don't. v And the "dear people." went, houi" consoled that they would not lie en tirely rained by oting for Mr. Moor's p'rly. Sach have been the tricks of the past; thus have been the field's of choice between a T"jat evil and a greater evil, and nooffehas kifown which was the greater. lint lo-dav we 'nave a prospect of being permitted to vote truly for equal rights. The giant born a lew days ago in Cincin nati will sweep the fields, and the hol low, empty names of pat political par ties along with their "bloody shir'.s," and "niggers in the woodpile," are no u.ore to be adore ! ; measures, not men, are to be advocated; principles expressed in tru; platforms, not equivocation put i:i high-sounding documents of the "grand old party' are to be fought for; truth, not sentiment nor prejudice; equal rights to all, not special favors to the lew, are to be enthroned. The people's p .rly and tha Farmers" Alliance are entirely distinct organi zations. Cut the people's political party proposes io place upon tin; statute books of this ai ion, t he demads of the Far.neVs' A lli.inee and kindred or ganiz itious. Neither the people's par ty nor the Farmers' Alliance are essen tial to the other's success; through the one to educate, through the other to put into pract ice the lesson taught. The people party was not made to order, but is the outgrowth of econom ic education; the on' come of a necessi ty felt by the great irfiiss of American people.

Enterprise suvs: The sub-treasury plan is the only plan yet given' 'out .that rt quires no taxation for the emission of money. The idea that ' money issued through the sub-treasury is first taxed from one, class of the, people before it is loaned to to another is absurd, and discloses the ignorance or miudaeity of everyone w!io,m ikes the assertion. Tiie third and fourth sections of that bill when read will exhibit the m an, underhand war certain selfish partisans are guilty of waging against the bilj. Every f inner, mechanic and laborer should read the sub-treasury bill for himself and not to be guided by enemies, who aim to crush the order.
