NEWS FROM ALAMANcE.

UNION RIDGE, N. c., May l, '89.
Mr.. EDIToR:-Having been elected
Corresponding Secretary of Union
Ridge Farmers Alliance, No. LII,
l suppose the brethren expect to see
something from me in The PROGRESS
I'VE FARMER. hardly know where to
begin or what to write.
Our lodge was organized in Sep
TENDER, 1883, under the name of
Glendale Alliance, with six charter
members. Not meeting with success
at that place, it was moved to Union
Ridge, where it has grown rapidly.
We now number 81 members, and
some of them are as good farmers as
the neighborhood affords. While
there are some who have not joined
some who belonged to the Grange,
and as that order did not last long
here, 1 suppose they think we will
soon pass away, but | think we have
come to stay. I was glad to see u
members acting as a unit in regard to
fertilizers. We sent our Business
Agent to the guano company and
made arrangements satisfactory and
saved the middle man the trouble of.
handling our money for US, as it is
scarce, and will be as long as we pay
agents such per cents as we have been
paying them. There will be less to-
bacco planted here and more corn.
There was more oats, clover and
grasses sown this spring than usual.
Having undertaken to change our
mode of farming, may we hold out
faithful till a change for the better is
brought about. Brethren, if we want
to be prosperous and successful far
mers, we must make our meat and
bread and food necessarily for our stock
on our farms. God gave us the
ground to till and make a support. Let
us as intelligent beings make the right
use Of the means he has given us. |
will close, by wishing the brethren
and The PROGRESSIVE FARMER much
success.
Yours ~fraternally,

A WORD FROM PITT.

GREENvILEE, N. g., April, 1889.
Mr. EDITORIAL our meeting, held
Friday, the 5th inst, we did some i'm
portant work, and the following reso.
lutions were passed:
WHEREAS, We think it important
to raise the stated amount tor the
Business Agency Fund: belt
Resolved, l. That this County Ali.
ance subscribe the sum of $50 to the
Business Agency Fund.
2. That we will each urge upon the
members of our Sub-Alliance to con,
tribute further and as much as they
reasonably can to the Building Agency
Fund, to be paid on or before Novem
Der. lst, 1889.
3. That a copy of these resolutions
be sent to The PROGRESSIVE FARMER
for publication.
4. That we ask The PROGRESSIVE
FARMER to urge upon every county to
adopt these or similar resolutions.
We have twenty Sub Alliances,
nineteen of which made their reports
promptly and the other one was
handed in in time for the Secretary
to make his report without having to
report one single Sub Alliance tardy.
We mean business.
We are quite sure that if every
county in the State and of the South
ern States would put its shoulder to
the wheel, as old Pitt is doing, we
would not only raise very easily the
required amount for the business
Agency Fund, but we would kill out.
right the Bagging Trust Company and
all other combinations who might
make similar attempts to rob us of our
hard earnings. We would nip them
in the bud.
No doubt they are now c~ornering
on sugar, and it is with us, brother
farmers, whether we will be robbed of
thousands of dollars by such q con-
spiracy.
We a put down the prices of
sugar by united concert of action so
easily, or we can putlddwn the sugar.
Subscribe to The PRodREssE FARMER,
join the Alliance, learn what we must
do to be saved. Let us from now
henceforth go to work with a deter
mined resolution to be saved mean
from the merciless monopoIies. [
am proud to inform the many readers
OF HE PROGRESSIVE FARMER that we
nave increased u acreage in wheat
ana oats nearly 100 per cent. We
intend to get out of danger of the
trust on Hour and very soon, and a
company OF us have resolved to make
our syrup and r ready to plant, but
have been disappointed in GETTING
seed. Will some brother please in,
form US where we can get a few
seed without further delay.
Fraternally, w. A. FLEMING.

We are sorry to say that some Alliance
men do not know their best friends.
They will take any city weekly paper
that comes along if the solicitor only tells
them it contains a little Alliance news.
and let papers devoted to their cause
languish for support. There is mighty
little business sense in this way of doing.
Alliance Adrocate.
A plan for rendering paper as tough
as wood or leather it is said has been
recently introduced on the continent;
it consists in mixing chloride of zlne
with the pulp in the course of manu-
f~acture. 1t has been found that the
greater the degree of concentration of
the zinc solution, the greater will be
the ~toughness of the paper. It can be
used for making boxes, combs, for
roofing, and ever for making boats.
In the May Forum wefnd a strong ar
ticle on the Republican Party and the
Negro" by Mr.. E. L. Godkin, editor of
the N. Y. Evening Post. There is a strik-
ing coincidence in the conclusions of Mr..
Godkin with those of able Southern
writers who have contributed a number
of articles to this splendid journal on the
negro problem. He agrees with the best
and most practical thinkers of the country
that its solution must be left to the South
ern people.
The Piedmont Wagon Company has
been r~eorganlzed, with new officers,
and with their 5000, 900 capital propose
to carry on a business second to none
in the South. The directors have order
ed the President to put up a new brick
building two and a half stories high,
200 feet long and 60 feet wide with
metal roof. It will take 500, 900 brick
ard 80, GOO feet of lumber to construct
it, and it will be ready for occupancy
August 1st. With this they can turn
out six thousand Piedmont Wagons per
year, or nearly twenty wagons per day.

A diver at work on the Wellington,
New Zealand. harbor improvements,
was down in his divers dress placing
blocks between the piles that had just
been driven. While there he was seized
by an octopus that grabbed him with
some of its legs and the piles with the
other. Do what he would the diver
couldn't get away, so he stood perfectly
still, and pretty soon the octopus re-
leased its grasp on the piles. Then the
diver gave the signal and was drawn to
the surface with the creature clinging
to him. It was killed. Its legs meas
ured nine feet in length.
We desire to call to your especial at
tention the adv. of Yancey & Stronach,
in this issue. These gentlemen do alarge
business in their line, second to none in
the State. They manufacture and handle
all kinds of vehicles and are prepared
to do all kinds of repairing on short
notice. They have two large repositories,
one on Morgan and the other On VIII
mington street, where you can find any
kind Of vehicle, from the two-wheeler to
five wheels, including the fifth wheel.
Mr.. Yancey, who has charge of the man
ufacturing department, has long expert
ence as a builder, having been in the
business with the late N. S.. Harp a long
number of years before his death. Any
work entrusted to these gentlemen will
be done in first. class style and promptly.
When you want a vehicle or any repair
ing done, give them a trial.

"A member of the Alliance, writ
ing from Science Hill, Randolph
county, says: We are a young Ali
ance. over in the back.woods-poor,
too, as to this worlds goods. We
live from six to eight miles southwest
of Asheboro. So soon as we get our
railroad completed to u town, and
railroad subscription paid up, we ex-
pect to get up out of the ashes and
all subscribe for The PROGRESSIVE
FARMER-keep posted, live at home,
and board at the same place.
"A friend sending us a new sub
scriber from P~fafftown, Forsyth
county, is moved to say: THE Pro
GREssIvE FARMER is welding a mighty
influence with all who read it. We
must keep posted Or be vague in our
understanding of what we desire to
accomplish. Spasmodic and uncer-
tain in our actions, the force of our
movement is broken by division. No
hope of great results a be enter
tanned until the objects to be accomp-
lished are thoroughly and clearly un-
derstood, the plan of action thoroughly
formed and digested, and the masses
determined and persistent, acting in
perfect harmony and with a clear un-
Outstanding of what they desire.
We learn that the picnic on the
4th inst. at the New Bridge on the
Neuse river, in Lenoir county, was
largely attended, the crowd being
estimated at from six hundred to one
thousand persons. Speeches were
made by State Agent W. A. Darden
and others, and everybody seemed to
be well pleased with what they saw
and heard. AL were invited to par
take of the sumptuous dinner that had
been prepared, and after that vast
multitude had feasted upon fat things,
and all the wants of the inner man
fully supplied, there was still an
abundance of good things left. Great
enthusiasm prevailed, and nowhere in
our State is there a more determined
spirit upon the part of Alliance men
than in the county OF Lenolr.
Bro. Willie Hooker, a CORES
pondent at Glenfeld, N. c., says Rain
bow Alliance has been organized a
year or more and has a membership
of about forty. On Saturday night
after Christmas the ladies of the ALI
ance gave a dinner which would tempt
the appetite of the most fastidious
epicurean. After the regular business
of the day, we had a short lecture
from Mr.. Newborn. He very plainly
set forth the advantages of the ALI
ance to the farmers, both financially
and socially. AS the new year came
in, the members seemed to begin with
greater zeal and earnestness for the
future. The meetings r usually
we'll attended and very interesting.
The PROGRESSIVE FARMER Is taken
and read With great interest by many
of the members.

CIVIL SERVICE CHANGES.
Architects and Printers Can be EN-
ployed Without Examination.

President Harrison has approved the changes
In the civil service regulations, applied to the
railway mail service, recommended by the civil
service commissioners. These changes permit
the appointment without examination of
printers employed as such and of substitutes to
take the place of regular appointees when not
employed for more than thirty days
The civil service commission has recon-
mended that the rules governing the appoint
ment of employees in the Office of supervising
architect of the Treasury be changed so as to
permit Of the employment Of the best class of
talent in that line. 1t was shown by the investi-
CATION OF the office before Senate committee
last winter that the best class of architects

Tor appointment, consequently the architect has
been hampcred by an inferior force. Mr..
Wlndrim laid the matter before the commits
sloners some days ago. They saw the force of
his suggestions and the desired change was
recommended to the President.
Object ofthe Alien Contract Labor Law.
Acting Secretary Batcheller has written a
letter to the collector of customs at Cape Vim
cent, n. Y, in regard to the enforcement of the
alien contract labor law, in which he SAYS:
THE department received your letter Of the
22d inst, with enclosures relating to violations
OF the alien contract labor law by Canadians
but chiefly devoted to the consideration of the
case Of American and Canadian oarsmen at
Alexandria bay. The question as to liability
under the law will be decided when a case i
presented with its facts and circumstances.
The same remark will apply to the Canadian
oarsmen who come to Alexandra bay. take
American citizens in their boats and row them
all day to fish in Canadian waters and return
the fishermen to the American side at night,
the oarsmen then returning to their home in
Canada 1t is expected, as you intimated to

law will bear in mind that the main object of
the law was to remedy, so far as possible. the
