A CARD OF THANKS.

have just received Il letter from lady
of South Pacolct congratulating me for the
items in the Alliance column. Rest assured,
kind lady, appreciate such letters very
much. The founder of Mcthodism once, in
charging some young preachers, said. "lf you
do not make somebody glad or mad every
time you preach you will accomplish but
little | have been honest in all have
written and have, douJhcss, ruilcd, or will
again ruflle the feelings of some; but it af-
fords me far more pleasure to receive words
of commendation like yours than ccnsurc..
must and will continue to say what 'c
hcre to be right, regardless of tic cons,.
qucnccs.
You say ''you dislike to see the farmers
Alliance of Union County represented IN
such poverty stricken condition, especially
when he farmers are the chief support of
the county paper That's right, you stand
by the farmers. One of the noble attributes
of your is fidelity, yet must say the ma
jority of the farmers of our county arc in
dcplorablc situation. and all on account q:
Mr.. Stokes is very kind to give the far
mcrs column in his paper. that they may
commune with each other and take counsel
together; and let the farmers and their wives
and daughters embrace the opportunity of
intcrchanging their observations and ideas
through this column.
There seems to he some misunderstanding
about the space allowed the Alliance Editors
in the TINES. | do not confinc Won. gentle
men, to one, or even two columns if You
think the Interests Of the farmers require it.
Remember, GRAHAM & SPARKS have made
big reductions in Ladies Hats and all Milli-
merry Goods this season. Call and get some
of their bargains. TLcj have just received
