Joseph Dennett, who bought a farm In
Washington township borrowed mone
from a Jewell City firm to make the first
payment and put In his crops. When the
notes fell due. Bennett did not have the
money to take them up, and his place was
sold by the sheriff, lie refused to give
possession and was ejected. Joseph Kin
dlesbergtr then occupied ihe farm a ;
tenant of the purchasers. Bennett is
member of the farmers alliance. Thirty or
fort j mabked men, with Bennett at (net;
head drew up to the place Sunday nL'h
and requested the new tenant to leave. Me
refused 10 do so wheteupon revolvers wa
drawn and was told that he could either
leave at once or his dead body would be
carted off. Bennett was then reinstated,
and still holds the place. K.ndjesberer
has the names of the leaders ox the inub.
and will institute civil and c.tminal pro
ceedings aja'.nst them. Tne officers In tMj
county are all farmers' alliance men, ln

This is a very unsafe way for men to
secure relief from anv imaginary or real
wrong, but where a man entered openly
and willingly into a contract it Is a grave
crime to undertake to set It aside by mob
force. Farmers alliances everywhere
should br resolution condemn such pro
