Mr.. BoYER's majority for State
Treasurer lie 60,6S9. This is not
strictly official, but the final figures
will not change this result much. In
Ohio the Democrats have carried the
legislature, thus holding their own in
the U. S. Senate, as the incoming leg.
islature will elect a Senator to succeed
Payne, the present Democratic incum
bent. In Iowa the Republicans car.
ried everything but the governor. The
legislature being Republican insures
the reelection of Senator Allison.
Virginia went Democratic of course,
as did also New Jersey. Massachu.
setts and Nebraska stand by their
guns and elect all Republicans. New
York elected Democratic minor State
officers, but the Legislature is largely
Republican. Mississippi was still
going Democratic at last accounts.

PLENTY of reasons both rational
and absurd are given for the result of
the elections last Tuesday. Nearly
every public man has expressed his
opinion, either in public or private.
Mr.. Grover Cleveland has given his in
an interview as follows:
1t is evident that the leaven of tariff
reform has at last leavened the whole
lump. 1t is enough for me to say that
| am satisfied at the indications and
results of Tuesdays elections.
These are exactly the stereotyped
phrases which anyone acquainted with
Mr.. Cleveland's mental processes
would have expected him to utter over
the elections. They sound about as
fresh and revivifying as the parroting
of phonOgraph. There are some
authorities, however, that differ with
Mr.. Cleveland as to the causes which
brought about Tuesdays Democratic
victorses, aud one of them is the In.
dependent Rochester Post and Express.
1t expresses its conclusions in the fol.
lowing terse way:
With Grover Cleveland cut of the
way the Democrats seem to be doing
remarkably we'll.
If the Democratic party was polled
and every man gave bis honest opinion
as to the reasons for this years election
results there is not much doubt that a
larger number would agree with the
Rochester paper than with Mr.. Cleve
land. .-PhiLa. Press.

Bear Greek Alliance, No. l,lOl.
Mr.. EDIToR:-Having been request
ed to write something concerning our
Alliance for The Proc GREssIvE FARMER,
l will jot you few lines. Our Ali,
ance was organized September, 1888,
with nine members and strong oppo-
sition by the masses, but time moves
on, and with it opposition is disappe .r-
ing. We are gradually growing and
we now number thirty three, with
several applications for initiation at
next meeting. While financially our
Alliance is very weak, as a whole we
are quite independent as to the mort.
gage system for supplies. We are a
grain-growlng Alliance and our mem
bers have plenty of clog and
Hominy" and some to spare. While
we have not passed sentence on the
commercial fertilizers, as many of our
order has dont, we venture that there
are none that has used less than we
have; if so, they have used none.
Several of our members have erected
a washboad factory" At first it
was thought by many to be rather a
small thing, but they have proved to
those who had doubts that it will pay,
and that handsomely, too We too
often look too high for our pockets.
We should learn not to "despise the
day of small things" AS to the Busi.
ness Agency, we have urged its i'm
portance at nearly every meeting, and
we were made glad on the 1lth inst
at our meeting, when, by a unanimous
vote, the Alliance made subscrip-
ton from its fund and some private
sale will follow soon. [ fear we have

ORDER IN GASToN COUNTY.
CATAwBA CREEK ALLIANCE,

CASTOR Co., N. c., April %, '89.
Mr.. EDIToR:-As we have not given
you anything from this part of the
Alliance fraternity, I shall now try to
write you few dots to let you know
that we are alive and hopeful. We
have on our roll sixty-six members,
but have demited thirty to another
organization. This number includes
most of the available material of this
nelghborhood. Everything is working
harmoniously and all seem thoroughly
interested in the work of the Alliance,
We have no grievances to interrupt
the household. Our membership is
composed of the working men, the
horney-handed sons of toll who are
proud of their avocation and not
shamed to admit that they are farm
ers and whose farms show that
they are admired by their own
ers. The young men have among
them the spirit of rivalry, each try
ing to surpass the other in the pos
session of good stock and crops and
fine farms. The negro problem don't
disturb us up here. We cultivate
our farms ourselves and are proud to
be able to be independent. We have
one member who has seven sons also,
members of the Alliance and good
farmers. Let the Southern men imi-
tate the example Of these young men
and prosperity would smile on us
more bountifully and fewer cries of
hard times would echo through our
hills and wales. l will close by saying
that our little band is in full sympathy
with the organization and hopefully
await the accomplishment Of the
grand purpose of the organization
The emancipation of the tillers of the
soil from the oppression of the unjust
of capital. More anon.
Yours truly,
ANXIOUS.

SENSIBLE VIEWS.
GREAT MARSH ALLIANCE, No. 136,

~ d %.
f<f5 o,4' April Is, 1889.
Mr.. EDIToR:-As there has not been
anything written from this Alliance
in some time [ will endeavor to.write
something and let the brethren know
we are still alive and kicking. Al
though we have said nothing for so
long time, | can assure you, we have,
not been asleep | think that it may
be encouraging to the brethren, as it.
certainly is to us, to know that we
have managed to give. our Trade
Agent financial standing. Such as.
will enable him to purchase the bulk.
of our supplies for this year from
WHOLESALERS at cash prices, thus saving
to us q considerable per cent. Then
we have agreed to purchase as little
as possible this year, which will be-
another saving to u.s. Thus by little
savings, here and there, we hope to
better our condition. So let us All, to
meet a bad crop in the fall should it
be the CASEY, practice close economy in
the spring and summer. If we, as
farmers, expect to prosper, we must
try to make farming pay, and this is
what every farmer desires There Is
certainly a cause why farming in
North Carolina, and l may say the
whole South, does not pay better, and
one cause think is this; farmers pay
too little attention to the raising of
manure The farmers should raise
all the manure possible on the farm,
and buy just as little commercial ma
nures as he can get along with. The
money paid out by the farmers for
commercial fertilizers is fearful to
contemplate and this money goes so
far away that 1t can never get back
just think of it, the farmers pay
yearly thousands of dollars to the
manufacture of fertilizers, and what
do these concerns buy of the farmers2
NothGngi We must raise more ma
nure on the farm and buy less guanO.
Then here is another heavy drain
from the farm. Everything we use,
farming utensils, cooking stoves and
kitchen utensils sewing machines.

numerous to name, are made hun
dreds of miles away from our farms,
and we have to pay cash for them
freight added) while the manufac-
turer of these goods and wares buy
nothing scarcely from us in return
This is a enough in itself to keep the
farmers poor. We must get these
factories near us, so we can sell the
products of our farms to the laborers
employed in them We are enriching
the Northern manufacturers, and the
truck farms around them, while we
grow poorer year after year. Breth-
rem, we must have manufactures.
established, for all we need from a.
sewing machine down to repairing
link, right here in our midst, so that
we will have market for everything
we can raise, or the cry of hard times
will never cease in our beautiful
These, I think brethren,
are the main causes why we remain
poor and "hard up" Don't yoR think
so too? Yours fraternally,
