TnE GAZETTE would not dare be so UNI

ton that It is begun under most inauspici-
GUS surroundings, which bode no good
for this extensive Sorosis community.
In plain, Colorado is poor ground for the
success of the enterprise. 1t won't last

Is a dearth OF women in Colorado-a fam

selves; but In Colorado its life will
be brief and feeble. And worse and

Progress, of the Farmers, Alliance
NACO, IEN,, NOV. 2, 1850,
To the Editor of the Gazette

WACO, TEN, Nov. 0, 1885.
To the Editor Of the Gazette.
The farmers OF Texas appear to fully
realize the Importance of counteracting
the growing power of corporations and
monopolists, and for that and other pur-
poses are rapidly enrolling themselves rs
members of the alliance. Some of the
most substantial and thrifty farmers in the
state ure now becoming members of this
organization. The farming communities
throughout the state need education, and
they need organization to effect unity of
action. The object of the alliance is to
educate and elevate all classes of labor,
that they may enjoy the comforts and
many OF the luXuries of life TO which they
are as fully entitled as the manufacturers,
the monopolists and the allies of power.
IL is not for the best interests of the
people of free America to reduce the price
OF labor here to level with the pauper
labor in Europe. The aim Of the alliance
is to reduce business to cash basis
They seek to get the full value for their
produce and to purchase goods Mt a
reasonable profit. The sales of alliance
cotton in the various counties have thus
far been very satisfactory to the members
The alliance stands upon its own plat
form, and does not propose to unite with
any other organization, feeling album
dainty able to manage its own affairs. At
the meeting OF the State alliance, in
August last, there were $50 alliances;
now there are $50 and increasing at the
rate of $50 per month. There Is now
fully 10000 members.
