ENDORSEMENT OF THE CON-
SOLIDATION.

HOLLY SPRINGS, N. c., July l, '89.
Mr.. EDITORIALS Corresponding
Secretary of Emo Alliance, No. l75,
1 send you some resolutions passed
by Emo Alliance, June 29th, 1889.
Resozved, That we, the members Of
Emo Alliance, believing that it will
be to the best for all concerned, en-
dorse the proposed consolidation of
the Alliance, Wheel, &c.
ReSoZved, That this Alliance heartily
endorse the action of the Birmingham
Convention and are determined to
stand by it.
Now, Mr.. Editor, we do not pass
many resolutions, but we are ever
ready to do anything that will ad-
vance the farmers cause.
I like very much what "Old Fogy"
has to say about paying the Alliance
dues yearly in advance.
It seems to me that The PROGRESS
I'VE FARMER gets better, if possible,
with every issue. Success to The
PROGRESSIVE FARMER.

know that the trust can be beaten by
every farmer in the South making his
own castor oil He won't need as
much of it as he will of molasses, and
thus the proposed trust might be made
to- take their own medicine or do
worse. .
The plant alluded to is the rtcinus
coqan'unas, usually known as palma
chfisti, mole weed and castor bean. It
is valuable for fibre, for the oil pro-
dueed from it's fruit, and the pomace
after extracting the oil is valuable for
tbs amount of nitrogen it contains,
ana would be profitable used as con-
stituent of fertilizer. It is a perfect
exogen. Let some of our wide-awake
men give it a trial It is certainly
productive, easy to cultivate and prob
ably would not be more expensive in
itspinal manipulation than cotton.

FORSYTH COUNTY ALLIANCE.

WINSTON, n. c., July 6, '89.
Mr.. EDIToR:-The Farmers Ali.
ance of Forsyth county held its regu-
lar quarterly session in the Opera
House, in Winston, July 5th, 1889,
and opened promptly at 10 o'clock
a. m. The forenoon was consumed
by Lecturer Wilson, in a public
speech, in which, among many other
interesting topics, he vigorously ly ex-
posed the scandals of the banking sys-
tenn. Altogether, it was clear, con-
vincing, creditable.
At LIS o'clock the convention
proper began, President in the chair.
After the usual prelusory exercises,
the Alliance proceeded to the election
of officers for the ensuing year, which
resulted as follows: President, A. w.
Bevel; Vice President, A. E. Pfaff;
Secretary, G. A. Pratt; Treasurer, R.
B. Flynt; Chaplain, T. J. Hine; Lee
turer, V. A Wilson; Assistant Lee
turer, J. N. S. Doubt; Doorkeeper, J.
@. Conrad; Assistant Doorkeeper,
Henry Shouse; Sergant-at-Arms, D.
T. Hine.
All reported the grand brotherhood
to be moving onward at gratifyingly
rapid rate.
Among the many resolutions read
and adopted were the following:
Resolved, By the Farmers Alliance
of Forsyth county in convention as
sembled, that, seeking as we do to
establish justice and promote the gen.
eral welfare, we cannot as true and
faithful citizens and worthy Alliance
men entertain any spirit of hostility
to any legitimate business, and that
we deprecate and condemn any speech,
by whomsoever uttered, that repre-
sents the Alliance as designing to op-
pose and overthrow the legitimate
business of any person whatsoever
ReSolUed, That this be published in
each of the county papers.
ReSolved, That we recommend Bros.
S. A. Hauser and A. E. Pfaff as suit
able and competent men as organizers
for Forsyth county, and Bro. V. A.
Wilson for Yadkin and Davie coun-
ties.
RESOLVED, That this Alliance tender
its earnest thanks to Brown & Brown
for the use of the hall.
Upon motion, the Alliance ad-
journed to meet in Pfafftown on the
first Friday in October, 1889.

JAMESTOWN ALLIANCE, No. 1,4l5.
Pennington, N. c., June p, '59.
Mr.. EDITORIALS there has been
nothing written from our Alliance,
and as l was elected Corresponding
Secretary at our last meeting, [ will
tryland give you a few dots.
We organized last December with
only five charter members; we now
number forty. There are some work
inggmen in our Alliance. Our farm
ers are beginning to realize the neces-
sity. of making their home supplies,
and, consequently, are raising more
"hog and hominy" and more grass
and clover. I think every man in
our Alliance who owns a foot of land
will raise more or less clover and
grass. We have in our Alliance a
general wagon and blacksmith repair
shop and tobacco factory, which are
patronized by Alliance men. We
also have carpenters and brickmasons.
So you see we can make our wagons,
shoe our horses and manufacture our
tobacco, all by Alliance labor.
,At~our last meeting we had up the
question of the consolidation of the
Alliance, Wheel and Union, but it
was laid over until the next meeting.
We also elected officers. [ will close.

STANDING BY THEIR CON-
TRACT.

WOODWARD ALLIANCE, Beaufort GO.
Mr.. EDIToR:-Whereas, the funda-
mental principles of the Farmers
Alliance are united action, co opera
ton and combinatian against middle
men, trusts, rings and monopolists;
therefore be it
Resozved, That we, this day, in ALI
ance assembled, do Individually and
collectively, without abridging our
personal liberties or restricting our
private rights, pledge our support and
patronage to the local merchants in
the town of Washington who agreed
to sell to the Farmers Alliance of
Beaufort county general merchandise
and hardware at reduction Of GER
tain per cent.
Resolved That we will constantly
urge the Importance of and call the
attention of each and every mem
Der to the above resolutions, and that
we will turn deaf ear to the beguil-
ing inducements presented by other
business houses to tempt us to divert
our trade to them, for in so doing we
break down our own institutions.
Resolved, That it shall be our chief
end and aim to zealously and watch
fully guard, protect and uphold all of
our Institutions, and that we will not
countenance or give support to any
organization, public or private, that
by word or deed shall endeavor to
damage or injure our calling as a
body, and, in the words of the consti-
tuition, "granting honesty of purpose
and good intentions to others and pro-
tect the principles of the Alliance
unto death"

DOWN ON TRUSTS.

ARCo, N. c., July lst, '89.
Col. POLK.-Dear Sir 1t seems
that no one of our Alliance at Arcola
can pluck up courage enough to write
line to The PROGRESSIVE FARMER.
We have here a very good member
ship and the meetings are all we'll at
tended. We desire, above all things,
that the jute bagging shall go and
never return. We want cotton bag
ging for cotton and cotton bagging
for guano. And, in fact, we are in
favor of and will labor for the break
ing up of all trusts of every kind.
We may go slow, but let's go very
sure, and when we strike let us burst
the bottom root. Success to The Pro
GREssIvE FARMER.
