The "mailed hand" of Boss Quay it
aeen in the resolution passed by the re
publican state convention of Pennsylvania
endorsing BUine for the presidency. The

ernor last fali. Quay has evidently com
promised with the bolters In that state by
giving them the local offices In return for
support for Blaine tor president. If
Blaine is elected president Quay will con
trol federal appoints in that sta'e. Quay
may not te wise but he ts shrewd.

A dispatch from St Louis says: "The
exectutive committee appointed by the
Fort Worth Farmers Alliance convention
has Issued a circular to thc"membera of the
Farmers1 Alliance and Industrial Union,
and to farmers and laborers of the Un
ited Statef," calling a convention In St.
Louis on Sep tctr.be 15th, next.
The convention is called in accordance
with a resolution p.oocd argthe Fort Worth
meeting In opposition to the sub-treasury
plan. This effort on the part of conserva
tive members ano real farmers, Is in order
to emancipate the Farmers Alliance from
the control of scheming politicians.
The basis of representation is fixed at
three delegates for every county in the
jurisdiction of the national alliance. The
call concludes with the following:
This meeting is a protest on the part of
lovers of the constitution of the Alliance
a gainst seeing that organization prostituted
by a body of men who have no Interest in
farming, and whose love fur the organiza
tion Is limitnl by the amount of personal
gain they cm get out of It. This 1 an ef
fort on the part of conservative members
and real farmers of our order to emanci
pate the Farmers' Alliance from the con
trot of schemir.g politicians and designing
demagogues. That we will succeed In i
this effort wc can have no doubt. There
seems to be a general effort In the south
to squelch a tliird party when democrats
arc in the majority .and encourage It In the
north."
