STATE ALLIANCE.
The Exseutivs COMMITTEES Now in Session
In This City,

The Executive Committee Now in Session
In This City,
From Fridays February 81 Daily.
The executive committee OF the State
Farmers Alliance, composed Of Messrs.
Evan Jones, Erath county, president;
and Joseph Smelz3r, Cooke county; B.
J. Kendrick, McLennan county, and r.
A. Benford, is now in semi,snnual session
in Fort Worth. The reports from the
various branches of the order throughout
the state, are alike favorable to the
Alliance and creditable TO the officers IN
der whose control it is. The membership,
under the policy now in vogue, has
steadily increased, and the good
which the order is intended to bring about
is apparent in all branches Of agricultural
labor. The one great cardinal principle,
namely, that the members keep out of
debt, has been observed, and the results
obtained have been such IS to impress
upon those who sre not members the
value of doing likewise.

and vast improvement on our crow
ded nests Of vieel New Annapolis
offers every facility for such growth,
and Germantown and east

At many points on this territory a
centre of population may be formed;
hence the extension Of Annapolis is
not the only result to be provided
for. Bay Ridge has already been
united to us-for three months it is

pare for possible and very probable
contingencies, that it is desirable to
adopt some plan of general devel-
opement of our natural limits.
Except in the election of local
representatives of this territory in
the township council, there would
be no changes involved in the politi-.
cal distribution of voters. What
ever may be the outcome of the eff
fort to expand, we can scarcely
be worse off than now. The taxes
cannot be higher or the returns in

Why You Feel

SO weak and exhausted IS because your
blood Is impure. As well expect the
sanitary condition of city TO be per-
feet with defiled water and defective
sewerage, as to expect such a compli-
Gated piece OF mechanism as the human
frame to be in good order with impure
blood circulating even to its minutest
veins. Do you know that every drop
of your two or three gallons of blood
passes thro- gh the heart and lungs in
about two and half minutes, and that,
on its way, it makes bone and muscle,
brain and nerve, and all other solids
and fluids of the body? The blood is
the great nourisher, or, as the Bible
terms it,

UlODCAty ACk0AA @A go 49, -
township or borough including the
city and having for its object q
scheme of improvement to be develo-
ped under local directionin commune
ton with the city and county.
1t is not intended. as some sup
pose, to exact city taxes from the
suburban territory, but to obtain
from the county tax as now levied
on both city and suburbs a definite
and just proportion to be expended
on the territory named. At pres
ent this territory, including the
city, contributes very large amount
and receives but very small percen.
tage in return. 1t is reasonable to.
suppose that this money could be
more judiciously expended by those
Immediately interested than through
the medium of the commissioners
whose duties prevent a detailed con-
sideration of every part OF so large
territory as Anne Arundel county.
The necessity and propriety OF
this consolidation of interests must
result sooner or later on account OF
our peculiar situation on a peninsu-
la bounded on three sides by navi
gable water-its inhabitants com
munity whose prosperity is depen-
dent on the development OF the area
as a whole. Nature has settled this
question for us, and the sooner we
appreciate the peculiar advantages
offered us the better it will be-
How the problem is to be worked
out must in great measure be de-
termiaed by cool judgment and ex-
pertinent. That it is possible we
have too many examples even to
name them. As one example:
Philadelphia, on scale of twenty
miles by eight, has adopted the plan
to the entire satisfaction and greatly
increased prosperity of the former
villages Of Germantown, kensing-
ton, Haddington, etc. AS proposed
here. the taxes are graded in pro-.
portion to city benefits received
There is large area OF farming
land included in the municipality
or township, which is steadily in
creasng in value as a consequence.
In Maryland either acts of incorpo-
ration or extension of limits have
been obtained by Frostburg, Fred
erick, Hagerstown, Rockville Hyatt
vile, Salisbury, Chestertown. Cen
> reville, Cambridge and others, thus
placing Annapolis among our small
lest villages.
The liberty of expansion over the
area named, would at least be an
important step in Kidding ourselves
of the bad reputation we have. Of
FINISHED city, "a mile-square
town." etc. AS NeaO Annapolis We
would throw aside the stigma which
prejudices capital and Investment
The petty jealousies and prejudicies
which starve the soul of progress,
would be replaced by fraternal and
united feeling of public spirit, and
we should hayessome s'go" in our
people.
In common counsel we would ind
strength and prompt action, which
under the present system is impos-
sible. We would no longer have to
BEG our ways. Our roads and
avenues could then belaid out in ac-
cordance with q studied plan which
would be decided With regard to the
most direct communication and per-
manent benefit.
Expansion is the object Of all
modern cities, and il is becoming
possible With good roads and our
wnsl rnad ar car sVetems to form
