ALABAMA


Weaver's Communism and Stalwartism.
Ostensibly Gen. Weaver visited
Alabama to encourage and organize
f~iatists, supposed to be numerous in
that State. But what vas the out
come, instead Of meeting and adj
dressing rag-baby advocates, he hunt
ed up every element opposed to the
Democracy, and in connection with
them attempted to set up the red
flag of the communists under its
American name of National Green
back Labor. The vote that over
whelmed him and his ensign was
double shotted with white and black
ballots and struck him and his con-
sorts simultaneously. Gen. Weaver
had predicted that his amalgamated
ticket would succeed, but that proph-
ecy shared the fate of other fiat cal
culations and extravagancies. To-
gether carpet-bagism and commun-
ism went down under a majority of
over 10000. And now, although
his fourteen or fifteen speeches were
attentively listened to without inter-
ruption, he returns North, shaking
the bloody shirt because the South
has no desire for either State owner
ship Of capital or State regulation of
employment and wages, or State CO.
operate societies, or corporations, or
bits of paper with a governmental
fiat stamp, OF an income tax on the
earnings of capital or local exactions
to embarrass transfer and inheritance
of real estate.
Gen. Viewers alliances and de-
feat were as speedy as his advent and
exit but if be had been as observant
as he was prejudiced and pre-occupi-
ed there was plenty of time during
his sojourn in Alabama to have no
ticed Its growth and prosperity, its
increase in population, area of cult
walton, in manufactures, and those
products that constitute wealth. He
might have seen too that the South,
unlike Maine and other New Eng
land States, had not been committed
by its Legislatures to the keeping Of
q grasping, hard-hearted, oppressive
and incorporated aristocracy with
holding from industry its just pro-
portion of production, and therefore
had no labor grievance.
In fact the best paid labor in the
country to-day is the black labor of
the South. Of all men the negro is
the least enamored Of fiat. He re-
tains q lively remembrance of the
freed mans bureau bank, and with
good wages paid in honest money. a
school fund apportioned impartially,
little homesteads ia the suburbs of
towns and cities, small plantations in
the country and moderate taxation
he has abundant sense to understand
that the Republican party invented
and introduced and still upholds
every grievance and every wrong
that attaches to the Northern white
laborer, and that It ls bis highest in
terest to oppose both the cormorant
and the commune.
The true cause of Viewers defeat
in Alabama Wa want of fatists, He
had been led to believe in their nu-
merous existence. bat once arrived
where he had been told they abound
ed it was evident the whole fabric of
such q party was = dream invented
and elaborated for credulity. Com
munism went down in Alabama from
want Of communist, white or black,
and not because Democrats stood at
the polls with clubs and shot guns

Aid yourself, and God will aid you.
Aid yourself-you know the fable
OF the wheel sunk in the road;
How the carter was not able
BY his prayers to move the load
Till, urged by some more wise beholder,
He moved the wheel with lusty shoulder.
Do your own work-your Maker bade you
Aid Yourself, and God will aid you.
1t is we'll to help brother
Or sister when in need.
But believe me. there's another
Not-to-be-forgotten creed.
Better lore did never science
Teach to man than self-reliance.
"Tis the law of Him who made you
Aid Yourself, and God will aid you.
Aid yourself-be not like ivy
Clinging still to wall or tree,
That can only rise by striving
For support increasingly.
Rather be the oak, maintaining,
Heart and branches self-sustaning;
For this ''the Great Task-Master'' made

A man cannot be prosperous Christian

This wish falls often warm upon my
heart-that may learn nothing here that

will bear fruits in heaven.
When we speak of disobedience we
should always speak of faith first. Faith
