NOTES FROM YADKIN.

AGooD, N. c., July 80, '89.
Mr.. EDIToR:-I write to inform you
that Holden Alliance, No. 944, is yet
in line with the faithful. We began
July Sd, 1888, with nine members, we
have now twenty five of the very best
men. We have sent SIS to the State
agency fund and have ordered a seal
and are getting ready for business.
We have been delayed some on ac-
count of our former county secretary
who really went into the Alliance for
curiosity's sake, but we now have set
of county officers who mean business
and will attend closely to the business
of the Alliance.
What is the matter with the world?
1t has rained here nearly every day
in July and this is the 30th and
while | sit here writing can see
South Deep creek all over the bot
TOMS. There is about IS acres of bot
tom here before my door, and the
water is swimming some of my neigh
bors oats around. Corn is ruined and
a part of the wheat rotted in the
shock. A minister of the gospel sug-
gests that the Lord is taking a collec-
tion. WILL. REAvEs.

RALEIGH, N. c., AUGUST 20, 1880.
MEETING OF GATES COUNTY
ALLIANCE.

At the regular meeting of Gates
County Farmers Alliance, Bro. Fl.
Clay Williams was elected delegate
and Bro. Lycurgus Hofer was elected
alternate to the State Alliance to be
held at Fayetteville, N. c., on Thurs
day, August 18th.
The following resolutions were
adopted and ordered to be sent to The
PRoGREssIyE FARMER.
ResotVed, That we adopt and en-
dorse the action of the National ALI
ance in session in Birmingham, Ala,
on the consolidation of the Alliance
and Wheel
ReSolved, That this Alliance accepts
and adopts the Act of the General
Assembly of North Carolina at its
last session. entitled An Act to incor-
porate the Farmers State Alliance of
North Carolina and Sub-Alliances as
its charter of incorporation and the
Constitution, Bylaws, Rules and
Regulations which may be prescribed
by the properly constituted authori-
G1OS
.ReSolved, That the County and
Sub-Alliances of the county request
the ginners to use cotton bagging in
the place of jute for the wrapping of
cotton as much as they possibly can,
(which was amended by adding) pine
straw bagging or any other substitute
rather than use jute bagging.
ResolOed, That we, the County ALI
ance of Gates county, State of North
Carolina, do earnestly petition our
State and National Alliances to take
proper steps to crush the enormous
tobacco trust by getting the Congress
of the United States to repeal the en-
tire tax on tobacco and to enact such
other legislation as may be necessary
to break up this tobacco trust; also to
urge upon this and similar orders the
Importance of refusing to purchase or
use any of the tobacco manufactured
by said trust, but to bestow their
patronage upon Alliance and other
home tobacco. factories, and thus de-
velop home@industry and save their
brethren of the tobacco belt from i'm.
pending ruin by reason of aforesaid
trust.

THE TRUE SPIRIT.

FAIRFIELD ALLIANCE, No. 545,
Lenoir Co., N. c., July 30, 80.
Mr.. EDIToR:-It is refreshing to
see with what unanimity the brother
hood all over the cotton belt accept
and endorse the action Of the Birming-
ham convention In relation to cotton
bagging. But in your paper of to-day
[ was quite surprised to see the g Pro
viso" in the Beaufort County Ali
ance. 1t reads: "Provided, The ex-
changes of New York and Norfolk
allow eight pounds per bale for com
mercial value in favor Of cotton bag
ging" l think we should and will
use.cotton bagging whether any allow
ance is made or not. | feel sure
there will be) Permit me to speak
for Fairfield Alliance, that many, if
not all, her members would refuse to
accept jute bagging to cover their crop
if it was offered as a present, although
our crop prospect is not over d two
third crop.

uncertain sound" Hope she had a
fine crop of "Big blues" (whortle-

the thing for all Alliances to do with
the trust, but | wish to say to Bro.

endorse heartily your protest of chill

as many others have said to the farm
ing class of people: plant less cotton
and more corn, peas, potatoes, rice,
cane and small grain, and this Will
enable you to raise more stock and
more home manure, and the result
will be you will have home pork and
beef, home -four, home syrup and
home milk and honey, and our wives
will be encouraged and will probably
hand you over pair of homemade
pants occasionally. This is what
will put an end to mortgages and
time prices. But be sure to arm your
self with The PROGRESSIVE FARMER
for instruction.
Yours fraternally,

the 5th day of July, 1889, it being
the time for the election of officers
Bro. r. W. Joyner was elected Presi-
dens and your humble scribe was
elected Secretary for the ensuing year.
The brethren seemed to be imbued with
the Alliance spirit and are resolved
to get all the benefits possible to be
derived from being Alliancemen.
Below I furnish you some resolu

Alliance A. .# .#.. ti@
Resolved, That we adopt cotton bag
ging as a covering for our cotton, and
pledge ourselves to faithfully carry
out the suggestion of said National

Allianceman, and subjects himself to
expulsion from the order.

last Legislature of North Carolina for

as before all things essential to their
welfare. .-.
ResoEUed, That we approve of the
amendment recommended by our

LOWER CREEK ALLIANCE.
LENo1R, N. c.. July IL 80.

LENoIR, N, c., July IL, '89.
Mr.. EDIToR:-The Lower Creek
Farmers Alliance met at this place
today, and was called to order by
President M. D. Smith, and opened in
form; and with your permission we
would like to occupy small space in
The PROGRESSIVE FARMER informing
the brethren that we are not dead, al
though we have been silent, are wide
awake and are taking hold of our
noble cause in earnest, feeling that it
is our only hope. We think we have
some true Alliance men who are in
full sympathy with the cause. We
have not passed many resolutions but
are trying to adhere to those we have
passed. Although we are yet in our
infancy, we are ready and willing to
put our shoulders to the wheel to as
sist our brethren in any cause that
will benefit the farming class of peo-
pie. The farmer should be the first
of all free men, but in the past year
we have been little more than slaves.
But we are alive to our interests now,
and hope in the future to raise our
own supplies and purchase less fertil-
izers. We see that there is no money
in having our corn cribs in st. Louis
and our smokehouses in Chicago and
we are going to move them home.
Now for few words in regard to
the wheat and oat crops. They GER
tainly were fine. The outlook for
good corn crop is discouraging; there
is very poor stand of corn, scarcely
one-half of a stand. We have all
kinds of fruit in abundance, but most
of us are eating it without sugar as it
has advanced in price Now, breth-
rem, let us attend our meetings every
time; don't miss single time, and
take our word for it, we will move on
faster. We are not at all afraid but
what we will conquer the enemy, but
the more we have the easier the fight
will be and the sooner we will gain
the victory Push forward the glori-
Gus work. We long to see the day,
and hope it is not far distant, when
the farmer will stand equal with the
merchant, manufacturer and specula-
tor of the country.
Fraternally,

TRACY IN UNION COUNTY.

WOLF PoND, N. c., Aug. 3, '89.
Mr.. EDIToR:--On the 3Oth ultimo
your correspondent had the pleasure
of being present and hearing Hon.
Harry Tracy, the modern Boanerges,
address the citizens of Union county
with the power of a Hercules, the
language of a Demosthenes, and the
oratory of a Patrick Henry. He
burst fourth with astounding elo.
quence and like the peals of thunder
that shook Mt Sinai, he stirred the
people up to a sense of their grand
duty. You will please pardon my
depression here, as l want to say a
few words to the many readers of
your inestimable paper. would just
say go on with your grand and noble
work, and remember that Rome was
not built in a single day-it was built
after awhile-by slow degrees, by
more and more until it was completed.
This earth was not built and finished
all at once. At first it was a thin
castle in the air. 1t was a thousand
times larger than it is now, but so
very gaseous that one could have
read the Holy Scriptures through the
thickest part of it. Science teaches
that it took too billions of years be-
fore even the crust was formed, and
ninty- eight millions of years more be-
fore vegetation could grow. Then it
had to pass through whole century
of snow storms, with the thermometer
az 73 degrees below zero, in order to
cool off enough to support animal life.
But it was completed and made, fit
for the abode of man at last. Let
patience have its perfect work The
great order cannot reach perfection at
one breath. Time, capital, enterprise
and labor must have elbow room.
Fate and destiny have decided, the
Alliance shall be great organization.
Combinations nor trusts can defeat it.
They can retard it's growth, but can
not prevent it in the end. Death will
finally kill off moss backs and remove
obstacles. If the present Is unworthy,
the future will be wiser and more
thrifty. JNo. w. BELK.
P. S.-Your correspondent is a
farmer boy, lover and well.wisher
of the organization.

A GEORGIA GRASS FARM.

Col. W. Fl. Warren, who has a
farm near Augusta, has demonstrated
that grass culture can be made profit
able in Georgia. His farm contains
100 acres, 80 of which are permanent
meadows. No corn or cotton is
grown. The vetch grasses yield
about ton and half to the acre an
nually, and the johnson grass from
three to four tons. The Bermuda also
yields very large late crop without
cultivation From May until frost a
force of ten men is employed, and the
hay is marketed in Augusta. Four
hundred tons of hay have been cut
from this farm in one year, the price
at which the crop was sold being
$4,000, or at the rate of more than
$50 an acre. This, as the Atlanta
Constitution remarks, "is a larger
amount of money than any cotton
farm in that region could depend on
making.

Pursuant to call the Border Farm
ers' Alliance met in Danville, Va, on
August 5th. 43 Sub Alliances were
represented Much business of great
Importance to the tobacco raisers was
transacted, and the body was trans
acted and the body was a unit in re-
gard to that interest, but of course
there was gooe discussion as to the
way il should be done, &c. 1t was
gratifying to hear the tillers of the
soil speak as to what they desired and
how it could be accomplished. DR.. D.
Reid Parker was present and made a
stirring, edifying and cementing ad-
dress as usual with that gifted son of
the Old North State. We missed the
editor of The PROGRESSIVE FARMER.
Col. Withers, of Danville, kindly
furnished the body with good accom-
modations for holding their meetings
and the body rendered him unani,
nous vote of thanks which was well
merited. When the work is fully
completed I will let your readers have
it for present. | will say a board of

secret work of the order was exem-
plfed by Col Gray of the National
Economist. To have the secret work
uniform in the State a special COM
mittee was appointed whose duty it is
to instruct organizers
Congress was memorialized to re-
peal the tax on tobacco.
1t was decided to have State,
County and Sub-Alliances incorpo-
rated and to raise funds for business
agency and to establish State Elk
change.
The next annual meeting will be
held in the city of Lynchburg, Va,
to convene on the Sd Tuesday of
August, 1890. The Alliance was in
session 8 days The President in his
annual address referred in the kindest
manner possible to Col. L. L. Polk,
thanking him for the encouragement
and advice received, and the conven-
ton passed a. resolution unanimously
thanking the Colonel for the aid given
to the Virginia Alliance.
Most excellent speeches. were made
on the situation of the farmer, the
cause of depression, sc, and especial
ly by Maj. Marn Page, the new Vice
President That he is the right man
in the right place cannot be doubted.
Good feeling obtained throughout
and more harmonious convention l
have never had the pleasure of attend
ing. It was decided to send a large
number Of organizers into the differ
ent counties and organize the State as
rapidly as possible.
The impression made on me was
that there was a determination on the
part of all the delegates and officers
to concede to others in the interest of
harmony and the uncompromising
persistence of all the delegates to
fight combines and trusts made me
fell that the Old Mother of States
would not be found wanting when the
final roll call is made. FoGY.
