FARMERS ALLIANCE.
A Large Meeting of the Representa-
tive Farmers of Tarrant County
Held in Fort Worth Yesterday.
Cash Rsrred for the State AIHaocs E1
change, and a Number OF Shares
of Capital Stock Taken.
From Sundays June 10Y Daily.

| from OuHudJ lOUHc 1VJ DGuy.
| Members Of the Farmers Alliance Of
Tarrant county began to assemble st the
new building OF Yates & Stevens or
West Weatherford street, and by II
o'clock 81 least 400 of the representative
farmers and citizens Of the county were
in the building. 1t is DOUBTFUL if ever
before gin the history of Fort Worth
more earnest body of sturdy yeomen
| mad gathered to discuss matter Of such
importance to them. The meetings were
not open to the public, but all who
| we're spoken to en- the subject
! assured 8 GAZETTE man that nothing
| but the business of the order in connec-
| ton with the Safe Alliance Exchange was
discussed. Fl. G. Moore, secretary Of the
state alliance, wss present and stated the
object Of the meeting, which was to affoId
sum assistance to the state Exchange as
was possible, and to subscribe to the
capital stock which has been increased.
In very short time some $500 in cash
had been raised, and number of shares
OF the stock taken, with the probability
that large number Of shares in addition
to those taken yesterday will be sub
scrioed for during the present week.
There WAS unsnimity OF sentiment eI-
pressed which showed there would be no
hating on the part OF the farmers in this
county, and the words OF cheer that will
be sent to the managers of the State Al
llsnce Exchange with the SUBJ
stantisl aid will certainly be
highly appreciated. In CONVEX
So ion with Squire Benbrook, trustee of
one of the strongest Alliances in the
county, and with Squire John Morris,
manager CT the County Alliance store
here, both gentlemen spoke ghly Of tide
management OF DR.. Macune, and said
they locked for unity in this county
between the citizens of Fort Worth and
the county II local politics were not agi-
tsted. Mr.. Morris said the Alliance
store had done business OF over $500
yesterday and the goods had been pur.
chased in Fort Worth. he said the store
had not been opened as per-
mRnency and the Alliance hsd no
Idea OF running grocery store;
1t WAS temporarily opened to help num-
Der of farmers make q crop aud IS soon
IS It's mission WAS over the trade would
be turned over to our retail merchants.
Mr.. Benbrook said he had great
hopes that an Exchange would
be located st Fort Worth and
he felt the time WAS ripe for it. he also
said that If the county road to Bedrock
station Is put in good condition in time
Fort Worth would get an immense guam
tity of wheat from the western part of the
county. The farmers are generally
prosperous this yesr, and if the peo-
pie OF this city understood that the
farmers had friendly feeling for Fort
Worth, and were glad to help her pros
per, and had 20 political axes to grind, he
felt assured that the fall Of 1888 would be
q great time for the county aud city.

BodIe (Cal.) Miner
on and on, all during the week We had
somewhat remarkable showers IN and
about Bodie, but the most marvellous
shower Of them all WAS the one that fell
on the desert plain this side of Lundy on
last Friday afternoon. 1t WAS . shower
Of beetles, the area visited by the phe-
nomenol being about two niles square.
The beetles are Of the pure Missouri June
bug species, and their coming caused
much excitement among the few people
VINO saw them. Their descent, rs e1-
planned to the Miner naturalist reporter,
WAS very similar to the visitation of the
srasshoppers in the Missouri Valley
states. For time the air WAS made SO
dark bv their settling that the passengers
on the Lundy stage couldn't see the lead
horses, and Orrin Miller had to light the
lamps in order to see his way out of the
back mass. Different parties estimate
the depth at which these beetles fell at
fro N four to nine inches. The mass was so
heavy, really, tina the lower tiers were
ABSOLUTELY crushed to q pulp, while the
little fellows in the top rows slowly
crawled over the bodies OF their dead
companions out toward Mono Lake.
After Miller had lighted the lamps Of
the stage the beetles were attracted by
the blazs, and beat against them so vio-
lently tbst the glasses were all broken
and the lights put out. The stage then
went but few hundred yards further
when it mired in the crushed and jelly
like insects, having been carried quar-
ter Of mile cut of its way by the slowly
moving mass. The horses could pull the
vehicle 70 further, the wheels being
wedgsd and the animsls sunken to their
knees IN the slush. Such s phenomenon
WIS never,alsiore witnessed in Mono
county, an ke would not believe 1t had
IL not be- Bseen by reliable witnesses.
