CORRESPONDENCE.
The Political Tiust.
Editor Mbkooby:—It i not strange
that we have no many "trusts" eating up
the frulta of our labor. Whyf Because
we have a "Political trust." 1 say trust,
because it is two parties in name, but one
in purpose. This "Political trust" bas
given us a money system tunUamentally
wrong, a money system in its nature Ue.
structlve oí lree Institutions. (See Buz-
zard's circular for particulars). A system
under which a few rule and control the
many; a system under whioh the agricult-
urist together with other labor is deprived
of a just reward or return for their labor.
(See Hasszard'a circular again). This trust
controls congress, senate and president,
and the highest courts, and by legislation
the volume of our circulating medium is
controlled, and we all know that medium
la controlled in the interest of a very tew.
Brethren, It Is certainly reason to say that
a key that locks up will unlock. Then It is
«ate to say the koy is men to properly rep.
resent us. Why will we continue to fight
one another, hissed on by ' kid gloved
lawyers, politicians, bankers, etc., and al-
low our laws mude by a set of bankers,
millionaire, railroad presidents and dlreot"
ors? While we are making tools of our-
selves, they are making laws to grind us.
(See Hazzard's circular). Wo may talk,
picture to ourselves, the blessings arising
from co-operation in buying and selling,
and the good days to couio wheu we will
be able to bold our products until we get a
lair price, but talk will be all, for it will
never come until we "co-operato" in the
use of the ballot and "bust" the "Hazard
political trust." Think of it. My God ! a
circulating medium measured or gauged
by the debt of our country Instead of by the
wealth or products. No one will deny
that tho bonds represent the debt and the
bonds are made the basis or foundation ol
our circulating medium that will pick up a
paper and read ot the amount of farm pro-
ducts sold in a certain section, and hear
them wind up by saying so many hundred
thousand dollars "dumped Into tho pockets
of the the farmers. Oh, what a lie ! Yes.
lie. for there is but a very small portion ol
its value comea Into our pockets. Why?
Because for want of a proper circulating
medium, called money, we are forced to
trade on time, give a note secured by
mortgage on tho crop, thereby turning our
products Into a medium of exchange, for
which the time of marketing, and the val-
ue is set by a few who control tho little
circulating medium, depriving us of our
natural rights. ("Oh, Hazzard political
trust") We cannot hold cotton nor any-
thing else until we see to It that there is a
circulating medium of exchange large
enough to pay tor our products. Why set
down and repeat the old story, "economize,
buy only what you can pay for and no
inore)"' My God, we cannot live on uny
less, and if we wear a thread leBS, we
would be arrested for appearing in a nude
state.
Brothers, let us in the name of suffering
millions, lay aside old prejudices, fanned
to a blaze by a few corrupt politicians,
and vote down this "llazzard political
trust." Let us elect fanners and mechan-
ics to congress, senate, president, state as-
sembly and governor, and not kiu-gloved
lawyers, politicians, railroad presidents
and directors and iinlsh the list with a lew
millionaires. Yes, elect them too with tho
understanding that if our demands are ig
nored, their necks pay the forfeit. Elect
men to transact business in the interest
of all, and not a few; men to talk business,
and not partizan politics; give us such
men in office and you will see "trusts" dls.
appear; you will see the great humbug,
.•Tariff," disappear. (I mean in lis present
form). Oh Lord 1 what a humbug that
"tariff" handling was, they never Intended
to do anything in the start. You will see
a circulating medium by virtue of which
we can build and maintain our Eschango,
control the products of our labor to that
extent by which we will live and let liyc
Give us a proper circulating medium and
you will see tho latest sensation, "negro
problem," disappear. Oh, Lord 1 that
"negro problem!" How cute tbóse politi-
cians are. Why do they call It "negro
problem?" Why not call it by its proper
name and say "Labor problem ?" Another
trick on foot, oh? Who will deny that wo
to-day have a greater number of whites
than negroes tn exactly the same fix the
negro is in ? Then why let those treacher-
ous politicians, demagogues and subsidized
papers turn from us and cry, "negro prob-
lem?" You know the old saying, "I'd
rather be a nigger than a poor whito man."
(Again read Buzzard's circular). Well,
says one, we must have a foundation upon
which to issue money. Well then, take tor
our foundation our wealth or products ot
our country, and not its debt. Ilow will
we do it! Well, I do not know, but wiij ¡
ask why not establish government ware,
houses in whioh to deposit cotton, wheat,
wool Ac., and draw a certain amount in
something similar to a postal note, not of
tho lull value of the deposit, but say half,
or two-thirds; this would in my opinion,
glvo us a means to keep control or our pro-
ducts to a live and let live extent, and
would kill "trust" dead as hector. Again,
it "debt" is a sate foundation ou which to
base a circulating medium, land lscertainly
safe to base it on. Bin says the average
"statesman," that won't do, there are many
serious objections. Yes, 1 know It. You
remember the fact that there was objec-
tions to Christ. Christ was sold out,
und we of course, being no belter than
Christ, have been likewise sold out. Tho
great difference is, Christ went to Heaven
and we are on the road to the other place,
lor who will deny that crime and demoral-
ization is Increasing daily í Again, 1 say.
give us men in high places who are in
sympathy with the tolllug masses, and lei
them wiih the key that locked us up, un-
lock our prison door, thereby killing all
''trusts" by giving us a circulating medi-
um based as measured by the weallh of our
country; money, money, moro money, is
what we muBt have, not merely enough to
enable a lew to control (oh llazzard trust),
everything, but euought 10 transact a le-
gitimate business. This and nothing else
will give us peace and prosperity again ami
also quiet "the negro problem" too. .Now
brethren, let us combine and commence ll
in time. We can "bust" "tho Hazzard
political trust" if we will try, the question
Is, will we try ? Fraternally yours,
Y. E. WORLEY.

Editor Mkrouut:--By request of the
High Prairie Alliance No. 101):!, 1 will re-
port our work for the Exchauge, On the
■j!2nd, day of this month Alliance sent a
bale of coiton to iHonbam, which was con-
tributed to the Exchange. Bro. Sidney
Moore did the work, and 11 is more to him
thut the Exchange Is Indebted than to the
liigh Prairie Alliance, for it was through
his love for the Exchange and zeal for the
promotion of the Alllauce cause we wero
encouraged to act In this matter, and
where ever Bro. Moore's Alllauce wagon
und mules went they got cotion, and we
think if there were more such Alliance
men as Bro. Moore, the Alliance cause
would progress luster In this part of the
country at least. Wishing Tint Mbhcury
und Exctiunge all the success thut is due
them, 1 am yours fraternally,
D. A. Turnkt, Pres.

Editor Mkkcuky:—At the last meeting
ol our County Alliance among other pro-
gressive measures adopted was the ap.
pointment ol a county correspondent for
Ihjs .Mercury. It was thought the ac-
tion might suggest to other County Alli-
ances the propriety of doing the same
ihing, and that we migh¿ thus become bet*
ler acquainted with each other and tlnd
out more definitely what the brotherhood
is doing all over the state. There were
two things that claimed our attention upon
which special stress was laid, viz : "Unity
and Co-operation." The Alliance, like
everything else, has its seasons of advance
und of retrogression. Atone time the or-
der flourishes and everything is lovely as
spring-time. Again there seems a lack of
'nterest, and we appear to be going'into
"the sear or yellow leuf." This ebb and
flow, like the tides of the ocean, has a most
beneficial effect on tho order. In the
flood tide ol prosperity many join who
ihlnk some way or other the Alliance Is
going to pul some money lu their pockets,
or it may be, liolp them to secure some
place of trust or emoluments, perchanco an
office. Alter awhile tboy find that to got
money means toil and sweat, and that there
are too many of the oflice-hunting kind for
all to be Accommodated, their ardor cools
down, they become indifferent aud anon
drop out like the drift left on the shore by
the outgoing tide. Are we not all the bet-
tor off for this? Members of tho Alliance
should be made of stern stuff, should know
what a principle Is, and be governed by
principle. "In union there Is strength."
Every Alliance man and woman ought to
koow what this means. But do they?
"United we stand, divided we fall." Unit-
ed in what? In having a pass word, a few
grips and secret signs? Is that your idea
of unity, my brother? Then let me urge
you to study tho word more closely, "in
things essential uaity." What are thiuus
essential ? Whatever pertains to the temp-
oral well-being of ourselves aud of our
families. What will benefit, one will bene-
fit all. Our interests are one, and must be
secured by the same means. There > h mid
be harmony then in all thlugs; diversity
divisions in nothing. While the Alliance
aB an order, makes no war against any one>
and is ready to extend a belpiug hand to
all, it is an open secret that the order i au-
tugontzod by many, aud there are not a lew
oil all sidos who would rejoloe to see di-
vision and Btrlle among us. Need I tell
members of the Alliance that there are
those who watch for importunity to sow
ihe seeds of discord among us ? They say,
••Oh, you fellows aro too clanish." "'You
are trying to break up our business." 'You
are going into politics to try to rulu every,
body else and to build yourselves up on
the ruins." "Your hand is against overy
man, and you should uot be surprised to
find every man's hand against you," &e.>
&o., and then labor to prove that this twad-
dle 1b true. Some are deceived thereby,
and are mo afraid they will do something
wrong that they lail to do auything. and
simply make loud professions ol loyalty to
the order. Now, we need a bold aggress-
ive spirit that dares to seek the right, and
having found it, has the courage to do it.
Let the timid and the fearful drop out
then; we shall be all the stronger by their
loss, as such are an element ol weakness
in any cause. The worihy and the true
will then stand together united in every-
thing essential to our well-being. Enough
for this time. S. G. Mullins,

Editor Mercury:—Is mere any space
in our paper? Yob, there Is work lor ail-
both strong and weak, in words, deeds ami
thoughts; for the Alllauce soems to ho lan-
guishing everywhere; the Excuauge is on
brink of her departing existence, and the
order 1b perishing throughout the stale.
Now, brethren, why is this so? Is ll
from opposition of trusts or auy other out-
side money power? 1 say, no! But wc
have the opposition right in our midst. 1
□ ol our order founded on moral truths and
principies? 1b not tho Exohange based
upon a rock of per.ect safety? Yes. Bui
luere is a lack of confidence, interest ami
that principle oflovo that binds tho heurtB
of men together aud to G<>d, whilo on the
other hund there are many evils which arc
dealing death blows to our cause.
Success to the Alllauce.

Little Blue-eyed Judith.
From the lnlaud Chiistian Advócale.
The bright star shining in the homo of
the writer is a little blue-eyed girl who has
not quito touched the eighth milestone lu
her pilgrimage. Her baptismal name is a
Bible one—Judith. Two years ago she hud
a distressing cough. No remedy seemed to
give uny permanent relief. Tho prescrip-
tion of the physician did not ubaie the
trouble. The usual household materln
medica Tailed. The cough went on. ll liad
lusted several months, aud got worse lu*
stead ol better. Grave fears wero outer"
ulned as to the result. One day In a cas-
ual conversation with Mr. Chamberlain, of
Ihe fumous firm of Cbumberluin & Co., wc
told him how Judllh suffered uud no med-
icine afforded any relief. Ho snld, bund-
ing us u bottle, "here 1b a remedy for her.
Take it home, try it according to directions
and tell me how It works." The bottle
bore the Inscription, "Chutnborluin's Cough
Remedy." We gavo her a dose of the
cough remedy. In a few minutes she went
to sleep and rested boiler than for muuy
weeks. The medicine was given as needed
and in a lew dayB tho distress which she
had borne for months, ceased entirely, and
she bus never liaa a cough siuce.
