Tho Irnrmcra, Aniancc.

Ex-senator Robert II. jackson, president
OF the Farmers State Alliance, has called a
convention of representatives of that grow
ing organization to meet In Atlanta on the
nth day of this month. Each organized
county Alliance will be represented by two
delegates, and each county having as many
as four sub-Aliances win be represented by
one delegate. The convention will meet In
the hall OF the house of representatives.
President jackson calls this convention
after q full consultation with all the officers
IN the state of Georgia. The assembly will
be largely attended by the representative
farmers of the state, and there is no doubt
that Important results will grow out of their
deliberations. An agent of the Alliance is
10 be put In the field charged with the duty
Of raising from 100000 to $1,000, 900, for
che purpose of establishing an Alliance ex-
change.
The growth of the organization in Geor-
GA has been most remarkable. There are
now more than forty thousand members of
the Alliance in this state, and President
jackson is of tho opinion that before the
year is out there win be at least one hun
tred thousand members.
In Texas the Alliance has not ONLY estab-
Nshed an agency for handling the produce
Of It's members, but ii is building mills and
factories. The agency appears to be very
Simple matter. II is not money-making
AFFAIR, being operated solely In the interest
of the members Of the Alliance. The mem
bers ship their cotton TO the agency, and also
buy their goods from it. The only charge is
the cost Of handling the cotton, and when
goods are purchased the members pay only
the cost Of manufacturing and the freight.
President jackson says that agencies are to
be established in Georgia, probably In At
lanta, Macon, and Savannah, and sub-seen-
cies are to be established in every county in
