The Southern Alliance.


Hon. O. w. McCune, OF the South
ern Alliance, said at the meeting Of
the National Alliance at Des Moines,
that the Alliance in Texas was organ
lied in 1873 by small band of farm
ers. TWAS organized to keep from
paying for our farms the second time.
Since 1880 the Alliance has had won-
derful growth and become more COM
pact, adopting secret work and the CO.
operation feature. In 1876 was Or
ganized the National Alliance and Co
operative Union of America, as dis
tinct from the National Alliance.
There are nearly half million mem.
bers of this body. Arrangements
were made at meeting at Meridian to
unite with the Wheel. The sentiment
here is the same as in Texas, and
there is need OF better understand
ing. The organization must be per-
manent feature. General evils must be
met by general efforts, and measures
must be advocated regardless of party.
The Texas Alliance does not compel
cooperation. Crop mortgages pre-
vail, and the renter is told how much
cotton and corn he shall raise. He is
serf. His crops are mortgaged in
advance to the store-keeper to whom
he must go for an order when he wants
physician or blacksmith. If the
crop will stand it the store-keeper
takes ten per cent. on the credit adj
vance. The Alliance is to correct this.
The organization embraces 500, 1000,
with paid-up capital of $780, 900.
Reapers that cost $135 we get for
1925, and on one and two
years time. Galvanized wire for
40 we get for 1876, and $50
wagons for $50, and so on. The Alliance
exchange system can practically con-
troll the commerce of the country. 1t
takes great deal of money to handle
cotton, for instance, and our output of
million and half dollars worth was
forced down in price until only one
fiftieth of the crop remained when the
rise came. The Alliance is correcting
this, and we have $4,000 men willing
to drop politics for the Alliance. 1t
was the Alliance that put Reagan into
the Senate. Twelve States have united
with our work, and the Alliance ex-
change now handles the cotton crop of
those States. There are 5000 Labor
Wheels, with membership of $780,
600, united with us.-Southern Guilt
