They cared not for the tariff; they
heeded not the demand for more money
to carry on the industrial pursuits of

wheat and ten-cent corn. '
The Alliance, uffder the astute and
able leadership of Hon. L L. Polk and
his coadjutors, has achieved a result that
will start us on the incline to prosperity.
And why should we not be prosper-.
ous ? We have a genial, healthful cli
mate, and the eastern half of the State
possesses unusual depth and fertilility of
soil, with a rolling prairie, watered by
numerous streams and rivers. sta

vegetables and live stock to the acre
than any other State in this Union. The
elevation in the western portion is too
great, hence the scanty rainfall there.
Our Alliance friends are in earnest and
say that the struggle for reform and a

They tell us that the tales of sectional

it wa3 reported, in September, 1889, had
succeeded in placing $6,000,000 of the
first mortgage bods of the railway com
pany, from which the construction com
pany obtained the funds to construct
the road. The construction company, it
is said, also issued collateral trust bonds
secured by bonds of the railway. Bar
ker, Brothers & Co., of Philadelphia! it
is said, were largely interested in the se
surities of both - concerns, and after the
failure of that firm the main source of
supplies for the construction company
was cut off.
At the office of the company it was
said yesterday that President Harris
was out of town, and the clerks could
give no information. They had not
heard of the legal proceedings, and it
was said that the business of the com
panies at the office was going on as usual.
