Senator Vance or any of~our repre-
sentatives. They thought the measure
constitutional. Nothing has ever
been so generally discussed by all
people and none of our representatives
nor newspapers, nor lawyers, nor
farmers have been able to prove that
the Sub Treasury bill is wrong. They
have said so, but a child can do that.
There are soma features in the bill
that might be left out, but in a gen
eral way it would be of great value
TO the farmers.
Senator Vance may have underestl-
mated the strength of the Alliance.
Men living right here in the State
have done this. He may think he
can ignore it's demands, but he will
find it contains more than Zone third, -
of the back bone of the State. Sen,
ator Vance is a Orainy man, but we
contend that the thousands OF ALI
ance men ia North Carolina know a
thing or two. He would have us be-
lieve that he knows more than the
hundreds Of IN e.ligent farmers from
% States who met in ST. Louis last
December. The farmers of North
Carolina pay Senator Vance. 1t is
his business to work for them whether
the measures are constitutional or not
He should do it, and if the bill is not
in proper shape he should have gone
to work and put it IN shape. If he is
not willing to serve the people we
want to know it. We can't afford to
pay men SIS, 900 per n and then
allow them to put up their brains
against the entire State.
The moral of it all is this: We
must go back to the old way Of elect
ing farmers to Congress and the q.
S. Senate. 1t becomes more and
more apparent that those we call u
friends are our enemies. Begin this
year. Delays are dangerous.

SENATOR VANCE.

WE publish a letter in this issue
w from Senator Vance to Elias
Carr, Esq, President of the State
Alliance, in regard to the Sub Treas
ury plan. Our people had been led
to believe that Senator Vance would
readily support the bill, even IT. its
present shape. It will be remembered
that many letters and resolutions of
thanks have been sent Senator Vance
during the past few months, thanking
him for his advocacy of the bill and
his work in it's behalf. We are al a
less to account for his actions in the
matter.
Senator Vance admits that there
has been much bad legislation. and
many things have not been done
which should have 0een done. So far
as we can see his main objection is a
doubt as to its onstitutionality. If
it is unconstitutional why did he not
say so sooner ? If it is unconstitution-
al why did he introduce it and pre-.
tend to be a friend to the measure and
its projectors q? We understand that
Senator Vance either suggested some
changes, or made them himself, in the
original bill. Why did he not get it
in proper shape then?
Neither Senator Vance nor any of
the outspoken opponents of the meas
ure have said why or how it is uncon,
stitutional. There is a reason for
everything. None of them seem to
know why it is unconstitutional. The
government loans money to railroads,
to banks. 1t builds custom houses
and postofice buildings; it allows men
to put whiskey in warehouses and
hires a man to carry the key of each
warehouse. LESS than four years ago
there was a panic in Wall street, New
York. The government sent millions
of dollars for the use of the s~oecula-
tors until they could recover. Yet all
Of this IS constitutional. It is also con-
stitutional for the government to make
thousands of consumers pay a tax to
enrich only hundreds of manufacturers.
If no other influence has been
brought to bear on Senator Vance
and others who are against the meas
ure We can account for it in NO ways:
The Senators and Congressman are
ashamed of the record they have made
in the last 20 years and Mr. Vance, in
common with the other members are
not willing to admit that the hay
seeders" have solved the problem
have pointed out the remedy. We
do not hesitate to use the same Ian
guage about Mr.. Vance that we used
concerning the letter written by Con
gresham Mills, of Texas. We have
not been paying him S. 900 per year
for twelve years to tell us a thing is
wrong without giving some good
reasons. A ~ten-year-old boy can do
that and for less money. The farmers
