Another declared object of the trust
is to prevent the debasement of the
quality and purity of its products
through excessive competition. But
it has not entirely eliminated the
rivalry of the different companies in
the combination as to which will earn
the largest dividends for the common
purse, nor rooted out the desire of the
combination itself to make the largest
profits for its certificate holders.
But we do not need trusts for these

RESOLUTIONS OF THE BURKE
COUNTY ALLIANCE.
CHAMBERS, N. c., Oct. %, '89.

CHAMBERS, n. c., Oct. %, '89.
Mr.. EDIToR:-Please publish the
following resolutions which were
passed at the county meeting of Burke
Farmers Alliance, at Rutherford Col
lege Oct. 4th, 1889:
WHEREAS, The farmers of Colum-
bus, in convention with the other
Sub-Alliances in quarterly meeting
assembled at Gilboa School House,
Jan. 5, 1889, did petition the Legisla-
ture of North Carolina to enact q faW
establishing a railroad commission;
and whereas, our representatives j.
H. Hoffman, did, and our Senators
Briggs and Blair did not, vote for
said bill; therefore be it
Resozved, That we thank our Repre-
sentative Hoffman for voting for said
commission.
Resolved, That we are unqualifedly
opposed to the way our Senators
Briggs and Blair acted in the late
Legislature, who, forgetting that there
were other people in this world be-
sides the railroad kings and magnates,
forsook their constituents, the farm
ers, and went over to the great foe of
labor capital.
Resolved, That this is all their fault,
but if they-Briggs and Blair-ever
get to vote down another railroad
commission bill, then it will be our
fault.
Resolved, That hereafter we, the
members of each Sub-Alliance, and
Burke County Alliance, will enter the
primaries of all political parties and
see to it that men who are in favor of
said railroad commission, and the
farmers interests generally, will be
nominated, so that, whether Demo
crat or a Republican is elected, we
will have a railroad commission in
North Carolina.
Resolved, That we propose to give
the regular politicians long rest in
the quiet shades of the forgotten past
by substituting men who will vote
without taffy.
ResolUed, That copy of these reso-
lutions be sent to THE PROGRESSIVE
FARMER, Country Homes and Morgan
ton Star for publication.

FROM SAMPSON COUNTY.

HAYNE, Sampson County, N. G.
Mr.. EDIToR:-I was requested at
the last meeting of our Alliance to
write and let the brethren know
what we are doing. The Alliance
is moving on rapidly in this sec
ton; it has some opposition, it is true.
but what good thing has not? But,
that only tends to make us more
united, and to persevere in trying to
promote the good of the farmers.
The Alliance has already been of some
pecunlary benefit to us, but we are
expecting more and greater profits
from some measures that have been
recently adopted for the good of the
farmers. But while this is all right.
and as it should be, we must not for
get that the Alliance is intended to do
more and greater good for us than
simply to put money in our pockets;
1t is also intended to elevate the mind
and bring variety and brightness to
the rather monotonous life of the
farmers. When we get our land i'm
proved so we can get better returns
with less acreage, then the farmer will
have more time to make his home at
tractlve. Convenient out buildings.
neat fences, etc, are pleasant features
of farm, and if things are kept in
repair, with plenty smiling all around,
we will hear less talk of dissatisfied
boys going West to Georgia or some
where else to make their fortunes.
Yes, farm life can be made the hap
piest life on earth. Nature is prodigal
OF blessings; we have only to look
around us to feast our eyes on beauti-
full things, and if we will cultivate
and educate our minds and hearts to
rightly appreciate them, how much
more enjoyment they would afford
us. 1t is the duty of those that have
children to see that they have good
instructors in the school room, but
they will not receive much benefit
from their efforts unless their parents
take an interest in their progress.
Home is the true school at last; the
fathers counsel and the mothers
word of praise are remembered ell
through life, and has so much effect
in shaping their course through life
till it is never forgotten by them.
How important, then, for parents to
realize their responsible les in the
discharge of their duties to their
children.
This is the first time | have ever
written anything for publication, and
if it is published | shall be sur
prised.
FraterDally yours,
R. l.. BUTLER

Der of our Alliance contribute to that

MECKLENBURG LETTER.
OAK GROVE ALLIANCE, NJ
Mecklenburg Co., Nov. 5, '89.

Mecklenburg Co., Nov. 5, '89.
Mr.. EDIToR:-Heretofore the mem
bers of Oak Grove Alliance have been
content to work and say nothing, but
now we want to see our name in The
PROGRESSIVE FARMER just to see how
it looks, if nothing else. But behind
this there is the desire to reach out
and join hands with the thousands of
honest yeomen all over North Caro-
lima who are fighting the same enemy
that assails US, confident that in such
union there is renewed strength for
ourselves, and at the same time it may
be encouragement for others. So with
these motives clearly before us we ask
for little space in your valuable
paper.
Our Alliance has about sixty mem
bers, including the ex-President of
the State Alliance, and the originator
of a plan, according to which the
farmers throughout the South have
been instructed to handle their cotton
during this season, a plan which, if
followed, would save to the farmers
$48, 100000 annually.
Of course we are proud of these
men. Besides we glory in the fact
that our membership is composed of
honest men who while working hard
and living close, join heartily in the
mighty contest to break the calling
fetters of oppressive combines. The
men of Mecklenburg have already
written one Declaration of Indepen-
dence, and now for second time
they fight the good fight for freedom,
with truth for their watchword, and
the friends of truth all over our coun-
try for their allies, and who dare say
they will not prevail?
We believe in the importance of
the business agency fund. and besides
subscription of $25 by the Alliance,
Individual members have subscribed
and will subscribe enough to swell
the amount probably.to $1OO.
Our attendance is very good, and
the meetings usually are interesting.
We expect to have at our next meet
ing an instructive discussion on the
all important subject, "The best way
of increasing and saving barnyard
manures." We may have something
further to say then. At present we
will cease to try your patience.

THE FARMERS ALLIANCE.

The object of the Farmers Alliance,
expressed in one word is education,
the word used in its best, purest and
broadest sense; education that viii
reach from the cradle to the court,
and will give US better homes, better
schools, better politics, better legisls-
tion, and better administration of the
laws; education that will give US bet.
ter methods in the home, on the farm,
in the storeroom, in the market places;
education that will do away with
every species of gambling in the
products of labor, that will give the
fullest freedom for trade consistent
with the general welfare; that win
secure reasonable compensation for
labor and fair profits on its produe-
tions; education that will give the
.armer an even chance with his fellow
citizen in every department of life and
work, that will aid him in his farm
work, in his business affairs, in trade,
in politics, in law; education, briefly,
that will build up agriculture on q
high, broad level, where farmers shall
be in all respects abreast with the
foremost men of the time.-Kansas

OURANT , In ECh ALLlANCE, mo. l., l1U,
October %, 1889.
Mr.. EDIToR:-We expect soon to
add to our membership about fifteen
females. Our Alliance has not, until
recently, seen the necessity Of having
our lady friends united with us, but
now. we see the great necessity of
their aid in this work of reformation
and we propose to bring them in at
once. We fear that the healthfulness
of our eastern counties has been badly
misrepresented in the West. Our
Alliance was organized the 18th of
August, 1888, and we have had only
two deaths, and one of those was an
old man who was very infrm We
have fine farming country here in
the east, where fish and oysters abound,
and we have more advantages and
fewer disadvantages than any other
part of the State, we think. We
have but little sickness, and what we
do have is not of serious nature.
Many thanks to Bro. Tracy for his
visit to us at the Farmers Alliance
Fair at Elizabeth City on the 18th of
October. The public speech which he
delivered at the Fair was rich and
made up of facts and information
which many of our Alliance brethren
had not heretofore known; and it was
highly appreciated by the large and
attentive audience of ladies and gen.
tlemen, among whom were many of
our professional and business men.
The private speech which he delivered
at the court house in the evening to
the members of the Farmers Alliance,
was full of information and enthusi-
asm. And now we move onward as
on new era amid all of our disad-
vantages. Brethren, there is great
and noble work before US. Then let
us grid on our armor of unity and
harmony and resolve anew to work
out the great problems of the future
welfare of our Alliance and our coun.
try, as our aims are high and our pur-
poses noble; llet us ever keep iz fore
us and in our minds the golden rule
as delivered to us by our Supreme
Ruler: To do unto others at Ill times
as we would have them to do unto us.
We feel a great interest in Tie State
