Alliance matters
boom.
Mr. Norther, the n< minee of the
democratic party of Georgia, is a
member of the Alliance.
Bro. Witler of San Saba county
says that the Alliance cause is bright-
ening in his section of the state.
The Alliances o' the different south-
ern states have held their Scate meet-
ings and in the main they have been
harmonious.
Hon. W. L. McGaugbey who was
nominated by the democjatic conven-
tion at San Antonio is a thorough
Alliance man.
A large number of the delegates to
the San Antonio democratic conven-
tion held on the 12 15, were members
of the Alliance.
Tillman was in the lead in the
South Carolina convention and there
was great confusion. A bolt by the
small minority—and it is thought that
a strong contest will follow.
Bro. K Baldwin, representing Kim-
ble county in the state Alliance called
on The Mercury Monday. He came
all the way in a two horse wagon, a
distance of over 200 miles. This is a
fair sample of Alliance enthusiasm in
that section of the state, which Bro. B.
reports is at fever heat.

burnet county.
At a stated meeting of Burnet Co.
Alliance, July 1st and 2nd, a rising
vote of thanks was tendered Bro. Evan
Jones for a lecture. Bro. Jones is
surely one of our noblest patriots; his
address was full of enthusiasm, patri
otism and gems oi golden thoughts
When at the climax of his patriotic ap
peal to the brotherhood, the member
ship was so wrought up that I was
puzzled to know just how he could let
them down without impairing the sol
etnnity of patriotic devotion, but as
gentle as the wing of a dove he effect-
ed the descent, and left the Alliance
brotherhood with the "sable cloak
around them," but 'big, honest souls
full of pure patriotism," and endeavor-
ing to give a just solution to the intri-
cate and perplexing problem that has
called the honest tons of toil from
their plows to assist in the mighty rev-
olution of pen and tongue to break
the brazen fetters that bind us.
God grant that as a people awed
up to a true realization of our duty,
fill our'souls full of true, untarnished
patriotism and stand by our true lead-
ers like Jones, until the banner of lib-
erty is placed victoriously on the ram-
parts qf corporate power and be liber-
ated from die oppressive demonistic
powers that are continually increasing
the peonism of our country's noblest
patriots.

Resolved, by Denton County Alli-
ance now in ses ion, that we view
with alarm the tendencies of the gov
ernment to paterna ism—n the na-
tional banking sys em and the exist ng

which m ikes the rich richer and the
poor poorer.
Resolved, That, while we oppose
these iniquities we demand of congress
fair and impartial consideration of
what is known as the sub-treasury bill
—or something better, to the end that
we hav^ equal rights to all and special
privileges to none, without discrimi-

PLEDGING CANDIDATES.
The Farmers of North Carolina Ask Po-
litical Aspirant* to Sign a Pledge.
Officers of the Farmers' Alliance in
North Carolina present to congressional
candidates who seek their support a doc-
ument which "has been indorsed by a
majority of the sub-alliances." and ask
that it be signed. There are six de-
mands upon the pledge.
The firot one is for an abolition of na-
tional banks, and substitution therefor of
legal tender treasury notes. The pledge
under'this demand, which like all the
others rnu«t bo signed in the presence of
a witness, h special line being left for
witnesses, reads, as do most of the other
pledges:
"I Hpprove of the above demand, and
if elected to a seat iu the United States
congress will endeavor to have it enacted
into a law."
The second demand is for a law to
"effectually prevent the dealing in fut-
ures of agricultural and mechanical
productions." The third demand is for
free and unlimited coinage of silver.
The fourth is for a law prohibiting alien
ownership of land by persons or corpora-
tions. The fifth demand is that all rev-
enue, national, state or county, shall be
limited to the necessary expenses of the
government, economically and honestly
administered.
The sixth and last demand and pledge
deserves to bo given in full. It reads:
"That congress issue a sufficint amount
of fractional paper currency to facilitate
exchange through the medium of the
United States mail. I approve of the
above demand, and if elected will en-
deavor to have it enacted into a law. 1
also approve of the purpose of the bill in-
troduced into the United States senate
by Senator Vance, and known as the
sub-treasury bill, if it is not shown
to bo unconstitutional. I will vote for it
and advocate its passage, and in the
event of its being shown to be unconsti-
tutional, then I will introduce and advo-
cate a bill to abolish bonded warehouses
for whisky, etc., and also a bill to abol-
ish national banks, in accordance with
the tirst demand on this case."
On the back of the card is this infor-
mation: "This card is prepared for the
purpose of pledging the candidates for
nomination to legislative offices to sup-
port the demands which have been rati-
fied by a large majority of the subordi-
nate alliances in North Carolina. Poli-
ticians have so often deceived us by their
verbal promises, which they break and
then deny having made, that we have
decided for the future to take their
pledges in black and white."
Ilard Times.
The expression is familiar to western
ears. Pioneers have heard it before.
Hard times are of the conditions that fol-
low civilization. When the first settlers
came to Illinois, and afterward to Iowa,
and then to Colorado, they encountered
"hard times." Sometimes thoy were so
hard that bread was scarce and luxuries
were quite unknown. But the wail that
goes up at the present is not from hunger
but from want of money. The farmers
are in debt and they are distressed to
pay their interest. They owe interest
because they have been borrowing. Some
have borrowed judiciously and some have
not. The man who borrowed to improve
his land, to build fences and ditches,
borrowed judiciously and sometime will
bo able to pay; but the one who borrowed
to pay debts, to buy piamos and fine
buggies or high priced horses aud cattle,
has borrowed injudiciously and possibly
will never pay. He is the man of all
others suffering from "hard times."—

writes from Logans Port, La., under
date of June 3d, 1890, as follows:
"Duty compels me to send you my
testimonial in behalf of Southern
Germicide. I can say that it has done
me more good than any and all other
medicint s that I have taken. I have
been suffering with dyspepsia for ao
years and have tried many kinds of
different medicines, but nothing equal
to your Germicide 1 will send you a
full statement in a few months. I am
sure I shall soon be entirely well.
You are at liberty to use my name in

How It Helps the Farmers.
By a generous provision of tho Mo-
Kinley tariff bill American tourists re-
turning from abroad could bring in $500
worth of clothing free of duty—a prac-
tical saving of over $300. The farmers
who are complaining about hard times
might thus have a chance to diversify
thoir minds by European travel, dress in
swell English clothing and save a snug
penny withal.—Philadelphia Record.
Assessed Too Low.
The race horses Axtell and Jersey
Wilkes have been assessed at $8,000 and
$3,000 respectively. The Farmers' Alli-
ance is not satisfied. It claims that Ax-
tell cost $105,000, earned $40,000 in the
stud the past season and that $75,000 is
his fair cash value. Axtell's owners
threatened to move him from Terre
IJauto if the assessment was made high.
—Terre Haute Special.
Timid capital and its boot licking
servants begrudge the poor man the roof
over his family's head given him by our
homestead law. The railroads don't
want to bo obstructed in saying how
much of his produce they shall take as
freight, and the mortgage companies
want to have the right to take the shirt
from off hi back.—Texas Fanner.
Georgia is the first state in which the
Fanners' Alliance will have an oppor-
tunity to test its strength at the polls.
The election of legislature, governor and
other state officials takes place on the
fimt Wednesday in October, and already
the tremendous forces of the new politi
cal giant are in motion.
THE EDUCATED FARMER.
Sermon to the Graduating Class of ths
Massachusetts Agricultural College.
The baccalaureate sermon before the
graduating class at the Massachusetts
Agricultural college at Amherst was de-
livered by Professor C. S. Walker. His
text was Luke xxiii, 83: "Strengthen thy
brethren." The topic was, "The Duty
of the Educated Fanner." Professor
Walker said:
"Heretofore, in all parts of the world,
the fanner has been 110 match for his
adversary. He has never held his own
against the soldier or the priest, against
the politician or the statesman. In an-
cient times ho was the slave, in the mid-
dle ages the serf. In the Nineteenth
century he is the slave, the serf, the
peasant or the proprietor, according to
location. American farmers as a class
are face to face with a crisis. They have
subdued a continent, and furnished the
raw material for our factories and man-
hood for our civilization. They have
sustained the nation's credit with their
hard earned dollars, rescued endangered
liberty with their conscientious ballots,
and defended time and again the Stars
and Stripes with their loyal blood.
Vigorous in body, strong in character,
striking in individuality, lovers of home,
massive in common sense, fertile in re-
sources, devout believers in providence,
the fanners of America will never allow
themselves to be overwhelmed by the
fate that sunk the tillers of the soil in
India, in Egypt, in Europe.
"From all parts of this land farmers
are coming together. Organization aud
co-operation are the wonderful ideas that
have awakened them as never before.
They are grasping hands with a grip
that means something, completing ways
and means, uniting upon ends to be
gained. They demand for themselves
and their children an education equal to
the best. They insist upon a fair share
of the profits of American industry,
claiming that 110 state can long exist in
which the tillers of the soil bear most of
the burdens and share little of the bless-
ings of advancing civilization.
"But they are in danger of making mis-
takes i n the struggle that shall turn
back the progress of the Movement.
They demand leaders. To supply this
demand is the imperative duty of the
educated farmer. Whatsoever of bodily
vigor, mental power and moral heroism
the educated farmer may have acquired
from ancestors, college or university, he
will need, that he may consecrate it to
the great work of strengthening his
brethren, the farmers of America, so that
they shall ever remain an immovable
foundation of this the only Republic
where empire has not been rapidly un-
dermined. "
A Canadian Opinion.
The ascendancy of the fanner in
American politics would not place in
jeopardy the interests of any section of
the people. The well being of the
whole community is bound up with the
well being of the men who till the soil.
There can bo no true and lasting pros-
perity which i^not> aliared by the farm-
ers. Legislation to improve their con-
dition by removing from their shoulders
the burilen of oppressive taxation is leg-
islation to improve the condition of the
whole people. Especially true is it tlijit
there is no antagonism between the in-
terests of the farmers and the interests
of their fellow workingmen in the towns
and cities. The wisest men among both
classes fully realize this. There already
exists a sort of agreement between the
Farmers' Alliance of the United States
and the Knights of Labor.
When, on both sides of the boundary,
the farmers and workingmen come to
understand that their interests are iden-
tical, that the whole political power of
tho continent lies in their hands, and
that it is alike their duty and their inter-
est to use that power for emancipation
from false theories of government and
progress in truo ones, the ringsters and
tho demagogues may suffer, but all dan
ger of plutocratic rulo will be forever
averted, and the triumph of democracy
finally assured.—Toronto Globe.
Seedling Peach Trees.
Trees that spring up from peach stones
thrown out from the kitchen, aud which
fall in some corner of the garden by the
side of a stone wall or outbuilding, seem
to grow and bear fruit, while budded
trees planted with care in the orchard
are infected with borers, the buds get
killed" in w inter or something else pre-
vents fruiting. A correspondent in The
New York Tribune says on this subject
"I have a hundred or more trees in my
orchard of the fancy, highly Recom-
mended varieties, and while I have tried
to give them the best of care they do not
yield so well as some of the seedlings
about the place. By saving and plant-
ing seed of the best varieties we are
pretty certain of obtaining good, hardy
trees and fair fruit, if not qnite equal to
the best in the market

"We have no hesitation In pronouncing

ence ill Its use. This preparation preserves
the huir, cures dandruff aud all diseases of

say it will stimulate the roots and color-

case nor a pocket-handkerchief, and Is al-
ways agreeable. All the dirty, gummy hair

Why the Farmer Stays Poor.
The chief cause of the farmer's lack
of prosperity lies in another direc-
tion. Low prices for his crops would
not be so bad provided he were able to
buy the goods he consumes correspond-
ingly cheap. But when he must pay
out of his small income war taxes on all
or nearly all the goods he buys he can
never hope to be prosperous. With the
price of his sugar increased 50 per cent,
and that of the clothing for himself and
family and the tools and machinery he
uses in his daily occupation increased in
a still greater ratio by a tariff main-
tained to foster trusts and monopolies
and pile up money to be squandered by
politicians and jobbers, he will be com-
pelled to scratch a poor man's head in-
definitely.—Philadelphia Times.
The Farmer's Only Hope.
There is only one basis of hope for the
farmer. He must crawl out from under
the withering shadow of the politician
and take this government, in company
with other workers and friends of hu
inanity in general, into his own hands
and run it on the basis of equity instead
of piracy, as it is now rim. He must
control the volume and disposition of the
money that now shackles him to the
shylock juggernaut, the railway that
takes his product to market and the mar-
ket that effects its exchange. Nothing
short of this will do. All else will be
effort in vain.—Hartford Examiner.
What I would like to see would be a
law passed in Colorado compelling the
railroads to deal fairly with the people.
I would like to see them made to carry
Colorado freight at the same price per
mile that they' bring freight in from
Kansas and Nebraska. Fair play is a
jewel but we have not had much of it
from the railroad companies.—William
Stoddard, Boulder, Colo.
The time is coming—nay, has already
come—when every farmer must declare
either for or against his calling, and ally
himself and family with some organiza-
tion.
