SANDERS STORE, N. c., Nov. l. ,oo
Mr.. EDIToR:-On every hand !.
heard the constant cry that farms
don't pay, and that farmers are groT
ing poorer and poorer everv yoos
That the farmers condition is grow;n-
more and more discouraging avars
year admits of no doubt, and it Is ~
parent that unless some relief is forI1
many will have to surrender tho.
farms and enter other callings: benna
the absorbing question among them
and the one which presses for an i'm,
mediate answer is what are thew -
do? Is there a remedy capable Of 70,
storing to a healthy condition this
all important art of agriculture? Can
farmers really do better than thew d.
pay up their debts and live in stvla
and comfort commensurate with their
laborious endeavors? What is the
remedy? Are theyto blame for their
impoverished condition? Is it due to
Incidence as some charge, or a failure
to make home supplies of meat, hav
and farm implements as others aver.
or, as many declare, to a want of small
farms and high manuring? Glutted
markets and low prices seems to answer
the charge of Incidence. The fact
that those States which produce for
export meat, hay and farm nipple.
ments are no less in debt than those
States which buy these things, dis.
proves that buying of others is the
true of our poverty. And again,
it is true that those farmers who till
the fertile lands of Texas and the
Northwestern States, are as deeply in.
volved in debt as are the farmers who
exc out a living on the barren soils
of the Eastern States. Then if these
charges have no foundation, where
lies the difficulty, and what is the
remedy? Farmers of North Carolina,
let is hear from you.

BULL CREEK ALLIANCE, No. 1928,

BULL CREEK ALLIANCE, No. 1928,
Oct. 81, 1889.
Mr.. EDITORIALS the above ALI.
ance has chosen me as their CORES.
ponding Secretary, ! deem it neces-
sary to ask for space in your columns
for a word from our Alliance at Bull
Creek, Madison county. We were
organized last February with 20
members, at this writing we number
l25, hence you see we are making
rapid progress. This number is com
posed of the very best material this
section can afford. Our officers are as
follows: H. J. Chambers, President;
Henry Pagan, Vice President; Andy
Atwood, Secretary; P. Buckner,
Treasurer, and other good men in
Office.
When Rev. s. J. Morgan first com.
menced organizing the Subordinate
Alliances in this county, the general
mass of people g not very favor,
ably impressed with it. There was
one class Of people who said it was
something similar to the Grange, and
nobody but the brogan gentlemen was
going into it. But at last the people
found Gus it was the best organization
ever instituted for the hard, horney-
handed sons of toll, and it's been
growing ever since. WI are in our
infancy yet and can't accomplish what
we can in the future, Notwithstanding
our enemies are a little scared now.
I I'm reminded of the walls of Jeri-
cho. At the first sound of the
horns they did not expect it to
fall, but as the sound went on the
walls began to tremble and rock upon
its pillars and at last it fell. The time
is not far distant when they will fall
and great will be the fall of them.
Then farmers will be recognized and
known as the best men of this nation.
The ladies take an active part IN
this section. The County Alliance ID
on a boom. The best men are at the
head. Frternally,

Scott is q successful farmer, one who
is wide awake and keeping well up
with the scientific methods Of farm
ing. I would speak of another whose
success in farming is proverbial this
year. He threshed about 1900
bushels of wheat on his own lands,
raised other things accordingly, took
the premium in two counties, and at
the State Fair on stock, poultry,
grain, etc, but he is a bachelor and
SO [ will say nothing about him.

pages of an ordinary book, and was
absolutely destitute of any minute of
the real business of the trustees dur
ing all that time. Is entries were of
the most formal and trivial nature, be
ing frequently confined to the record,
that the minutes of the last meeting
was read and opposed, but the minutes
themselves were not entered.
I have already stated that the
aboard of trustees" of the sugar trust
not only kept no minutes, but at the
time of the congressional investigation
had no stated place of meeting. They
met informally, at the Office of one or
another member of the board, and
had, as testified to, no minutes to
keep, because as Mr.. Havemyer said,
they never took any votes, but just
"felt each other"
Every individual corporation, of
course, keeps it's own books, but its
books would throw no light whatever
on the doings of the combination. The
great central directory who WELD the
power of all the corporation because
they hold all their stock and receive
all their dividends and profits, meet,
consult and plan, and "~departing
leave behind them" no footprints :"
to indicate to any n what these
plans are. There lis immense power
in mystery. l cannot doubt that the
market quotations of trust certificates
are really rated as much on the money
value of the visible property they rep
resent. 1t is this power that adds
might and terror to the operations of
the trust, and l cannot better close
this paper than by quoting a whole
some and timely truth from Mr.. Bon
hams book on industrial Liberty"
"The citizen in a free State must
be able to feel that he can embark in
industrial enterprises without meeting
all about him secret conditions that
interrupt that right. 1t is the duty
of the State to remove obstacles so
that he may begin as well as prosecute
his industries freely" But before |
slider how this duty of the State can
be performed, it will be necessary for
us to reach a clearer understanding of
the conditions under which trusts
spring up and flourish, and to this
question I will next invite attention.

AN ALLIANCE GATHERING.
EoKA, N. c., Oct. Is, 1889,

EoKA, N. c., Oct. Is, 1889,
Mr.. EDIToR:-The Pleasant Plain
Farmers Alliance appointed this day
for a picnic and there was a fair mum
Der of the people of the neighborhood
out, and brethren from several Sub
Alliances we're in attendance, making
quite a respectable gathering. At
about eleven o'clock the meeting was
assembled in the church house and
after a song by the Sunday school
class, prayer was offered by Rev. G..
w. Hill, who afterward made a short
speech full of good points based on
sound reasoning, one of which showed
the combinations against the pro-
Queer and the laborer, and that the
time had come that something must
be done, as the boy said when the
polar bear stood at the door of the
tent showing fight and the mems
arms all outside. The speaker thought
that farmers should educate their
sons to be farmers and not to follow
other persuits. The dinner which
was prepared by the good sisters and
wives of the brethren was
sumptuous indeed.
Bro. Joshua Soles, President of
the county Alliance, was introduced
and made a speech of half an hour,
setting forth the aims of the Alliance
to better their own condition and to
aid others in their laudable under
takings. He spoke OF the necessity
Of a practical education as well as
to be learned from books, and
against class legislation, and the sur
plus in the United States Treasury,
and the necessity Of d railroad com
mission, and told of his friend who
had a lot of tar at a landing two
miles from the depot and that the
conductor asked him to ride on the
train up to the point where his tar
was which he wanted to ship.
The producer readily accepted the ride
but no sooner than his train was in
motion said conductor came to
him for his fare and collected fifteen
cents for the two miles.
DR.. J. F. Harrell was the next
speaker, who set forth what the trusts
and combines were now doing and
what they would do unless the ALI
ance was a unit. The Alliance stands
as a great bullwork to turn the tide
of destruction that threatens this fair
land.
Buck Brown, the County Lecturer,
was the next speaker, who done good
service to our order in showing how
unfair it was in those sweeping char
tiers granted by Congress or by State
Legislatures, how they infringed on
private individuals, and that the re-
dress was nothing more than mock
cry. He advised young ladies to in
fuence young men to come into the
Alliance SO that they could not de-
ceive them by telling a falsehood.
Now, Mr.. Editor, I have come far
short of giving our speakers Justice,
but altogether it was a pleasant occa-
sion, one that will serve to enlighten
those who heard it. We, the men,
bers of the Farmers Alliance who
make cotton, are determined to cover
it with cotton bagging. May our
order grow in number until we be-
come such a power as to make all un-
fairness clear the way for truth and
: honesty. q. @. GORE, Sec.

The Land League Books.

LONDON, July %, 1SS9.-At the opening
of the Parnen Commission today Mr..
Parnel was called to the witness stand.
In answer to questions the Irish leader
denied that any letter between himself
and Mr., Harris had been withheld when
he submitted his correspondence to the
Times counsel. All the letters had been
sent to Solicitor Soames.
Attorney General Webster intlmated
that he would call to the stand every wit
ness whose testimony was necessary to
assist him in tracing the books of the
Land League.
MI. Parnell deposed that he had in
structed his solicitor, Mr.. Lewis, to sub
poenae Maloney to produce the books.
The witness was unable to say what
amount of League money Egan and other
trustees of the League had invested
in his name in France. In October, 1882,
Ecan sent witness the accounts of the
Relief Fund, showing the expenditures to
be- ESQ, 300, leaving a balance
of a31, 800. The witness said he had
taken no steps to discover the documents
relating to the Ladies' League, nor would
he. Mr.. Henry Labouchere, he said, had
brought from America, from Egan, valu-
able clues regarding the Pigott forgeries;
Presiding Justice Hannen here asked
the witness -" Would you instruct your
Paris bankers to produce the accounts or
the trust fund.-"
Mr.. Parnell said:-I decline to give any
information concerning such fund to
either friend or foe."

TIGUE NOT ALONE TO BLAME.

He and the Erie Company Share the
Responsibility for Cordick's Death.
Coroner Brackner last evening con-
cluded the inquest into the death of
George Cordick, who was killed on July
13 in the Erie Railroad Company's freight
yard. The jury, after a lengthy and care
full consideration of the testimony, de-
clared that the death of the deceased was
caused by the criminal negligence OF
James Tigue. The jurymen also censured
the railroad company for employing in
competent men and held it jointly res
ponsible with Tigue for the young mans
death.
The first witness examined last evening
was Albert Drake, of Port Jervis,, g
brakeman ON the Erie road. He testified
that he was in a box car when the crash
came. He ran out and heard man cry
ing out from under the car. He helped
to pull the man out. He belonged to the
crew of the engine which killed the man.
Under the examination of Mr.. Torrance
J. Mcdonald, the foreman of the jury,
the witness said that Tigue ran the en-
gine at the time of the accident and was
alone ON the locomotive. Tgue is a
stranger to the witness. He has not seen
him or the engineer, John Steele, since
the accident.
George Gibeans, of Port Jervis, the
fiagman of the train on which the accident
occurred, Stt1u pIluU uc saw IA0 CABluC
strike the car. He saw Switchman Kelly
throw the switch for the locomotive to
back. There were some cars on the track
and when the engine was near to them
witness saw the danger signal and called
out "Whoa," as loud as he could. When
the engine struck the cars the conductor
of the train came out of a box car, and
ordered witness to couple the locomotive
on to the cars and pull them away, as q
man was under them. Before this could
be done. however, the man was gotten
out. The witness could not say whether
Kelly signalled to Tigue to back down.
He thought Tigue could have seen the
danger signal If he had his head out of
the window but could not say positively
that he could standing in the engineers s
place.
County Physician Converse testified
that he examined the body of George Cor
dick at St. Francis Hospital on July 20.
The right side of the face was abrased,
two bones of the right hand broken, four
ribs were certainly fractured, and proba-
bly, two more, and the right side of the
chest looked as though it had been sub
iected to some severe crushing force
| These injuries, the doctor said undoubt-
| edly caused the young mans death.

very well acquainted with dynamos
On Saturday, hearing that he would
probably be called to testify in the case,
he experimented on $50 of his workmen,
with The view of ascertaining their resist
ances He found that the average meas
nrement was 600 ohms, the resistanceS
exhibited VARYING from $50 to 800 ohms.
He had heard of tests that proved that
some parts of the body exhibited re-
sistance of 100000 ohms, and he did not
doubt it in the least. A burn was cohclu-

perfect and that very little currenS
