Emin and stanley.
New York Tines

The controversy in regard to Emin
ard Stanley is one in which thus far
only one side has been heard, since
Emin is not only rather reticent, but
has been prevented by his accident from
taking part in disputes. IL is clear that
originally he never cared much to he
escorted TO the Zauzioar coast. and that
he had beenfor years perfectly capable
of going there himself, either with many
or with few followers. What be wanted
done for HIM was the opening up
OF a commercial highway from his
province to the coast. Stanley. ON the
other hand, was dispatched to bring off
Emin. aud was determined not TO be
ballled in that precise result. The adj
vantage was rather with Emin until a
double disaster happened therevolt Of
his men and the Mahdist attack on his
outposts. This put Stanley in the Iight

drawal no mere piece of presumption.

SUBSCRIBE TO YOUR ORGANS

To the Couty and Su6-AHiances:
I receive frequently, letters from Off
GERS of County and Subordinate Alliances,
requesting me to reply by mail, that they
do not as yet take our organ, THE Pro
eREssIvE FARMER. This should not be;
the officers of an Alliance cannot do what
they ought tos.do, if they do not keep
posted in all that the Alliance is doing. L
earnestly request each County and Subor-
ordinate Alliance to subscribe for at least
three copies of The PRoGREssIvE FARMER
and three copies of The National EconO-
mist (our National organ, published at
Washington, D. Co. Each paper will be
furnished at one dollar, and as the Presi-
dent, Secretary and Lecturer perform inn
portant duties without pay, each ALI
ance can we'll afford to subscribe for a
copy of each of these papers for each Of
them, thus enabling. them to qualify
themselves better for their work. Each
member of the Alliance, who can afford
it should subscribe for our State and Ma

Neck in the Halter.

That merchant who puts his neck in
the halter by buying his goods on credit
and of high price concerns, cannot expect
to sell goods in competition with D. T.
Swindells Big Racket Store. No credit
asked and none given at this modern
business concern. When the a%uctioneer's
hammer comes down on a big lot of de-
sirable clothing or dry goods and skaters
the price in a thousand pieces, we are
right there with American money to cover
the pile, and you hear the clear voice of
the a~uctioneer when he calls out: "D.T
Swindell's Big Racket Store takes the en-
tire lot" These are not pictures of fancy
but solid realities. Wehavereceived this
day the largest lot of unlaundried white
shirts ever in Raleigh and can give you
a good shirt for 25c.; $1.25 shirt for &c.,;
Coats spool cotton SIC. per dozen. If
you fail to visit ID. T. Swindells Big
