LIEUTENANT HENRY w. ScHAEFFER Of
the United States steamer Swatara,
who disappeared on the 10Th of July,
returned TO his vessel Saturday, but
was unable to give any account Of
himself. He was considerably the
worse for wear or something else, and
it is intimated that court-martial will
be instituted to penetrate the mystery.
Lieutenant Schaeffer is said to be a
capable officer, is well-liked and has a
good record. 1t is to be hoped that his
apparent breach of discipline will be
satisfactorily diagnosed.

In December l organized Buck
horn Alliance with l6 members, and
this is all I have organized, except I
was in the organization of the County
Alliance of Chatham. Besides this
work of organizing, | have visited one
or two communities and explained the
work to them in the way of a lecture,

ANCE.

Our Alliance was organized at Con-
cord, N. c., Nov. 18th, 1887, with II
members, and has grown steadily since
until now we have "A names enrolled,
and still they come. Our people are
fully alive to the interest of the ALI
ance, and we hope that the work OF
organization will be pushed with a
vim and get the required number OF
sub-Alliances and call a county con
vention to organize a County Alliance
at an early day. We seem to be be-
hind our sister counties in this work,
and it won't do. We do not want to
send another report direct to the State
Secretary, but hope to have a County
Alliance snugly organized long before
the end of the present quarter. We
attended the Greensboro Farmers
Convention, and felt it was good to be
there. Considering the kindly greet
ing extended by the city authorities
of Greensboro, and the generous hos
pitality of hotel and boarding house
proprietors, and the grand treat of
the Tobacco Association, placing a
number of handsome turnouts, with
drivers, at the disposal of the members
of the Convention to ride out and
view the beautiful city, n could not
feel other than at home there.
Our Alliance bore our expenses to
the Convention, and with that we did
not wish to 60, but if alive and well
you will see us in Raleigh next Janu-
airy on u own expenses rather than
not be there.

Our County Alliance met at Laurin
burg on the Sd inst. 1t was composed
of a large body of the sturdy tillers of
the soil and a body of men that would
do credit to Legislative halls. Business
of Importance was transacted. We
asserted our independence by resolv-

chant or manufacturer who refuses to
sell direct to Alliances.
If our members will only familiarize
themselves with the Constitution of
the order, study the secret work and
adhere closely to the great and pure
