Every one Of our people knows in his
heart that he cannot expect much relief
from the men who thrive by keeping
him down. Men cannot well serve two
masters. Members of congress and of
the legislatures cannot be true to mo-
nopolies and trusts and grasping corpo-
rations. and at the same time be true to
the great body of the people. The inter-
ests are conflicting and clashing, and the
man that stands by one must prove false
to the other.
This was well illustrated last winter
when the tax bill. framed in the interest
of the masses, was before the assembly.
The farmers favored it and SO did the
working people. 1t was reported favor
ably from the committee, and then sent
back to give Wall street. the Stock Elk
change, the Real Estate Exchange and
other corporate interests an opportunity
to be heard. They were heard and they
were needed. They killed the bill in
short order. scarcely corporars guard of
the members voting with the people.
This one act ought to be enough to war
rant every honest farmer and wage
worker in the state in uniting to over
throw the men and the parties that
commit such outrages on the people.
The period for action has now arrived

The Farmers and Legislation.

Farmers as well as other men have
good reasons for complaining at times.
And when thrust is made at them,
though it comes in fatherly and pa
tronizing way. they feel it keenly. And
when it comes from II man Of great in
fiuence-one Ike Sena. or Blair-it causes
peculiar irritation. When the senator,
in recent letter, made the statement
that farmers wanted to legislate too
much-tilat they would do better to stay
at home and work more" ETC., many
farmer felt it like sting. Is
the farmer Il serf. that he shall be told
that he wants to legislate too much? Is
he u slave, that he can be told to stay at
home and work more? Who knows bet
ter than the farmer what he wants, and
what class has realized more fully that
if it wants anything it-.x IT both ask
and labor for it?
1t certainly is no. that class of city
bred statesmen who rarely come in con-
tact with the rural population; neither
can it be that class of rich men who are
so very generous when place in con-
gress is to be filled. The very statement
shows that the senator ignores the con-
ditions that exist among the farmers.
because it is presumed that he thorough
w. understands them. How shall the
lasyyer and rich man legislate to cure
the evils of which the farmer complains?
They can no more do it than the farmer
can legislate to correct the defects of the
criminSl laws. 1t is absolutely necessary
that all classes be represented, and in no
other way can the interests of all be con-
served.-Farmers' Friend.

Judge CrispfLettef :

OU0G0 A0UtoTs
Congressman Charles F. Crisp, Of the
Third district of Georgia, has written a
letter to the Farmers Alliance Of his dis
trict in reply to questions asked him.
His opinions Of present conditions are
summed up in the following words:
when you contribute your money in
the way of taxes to support the govern
ment, you do not 90 - - order thai
special favors or privileges shall be
granted to anybody, but you do SO in
order that the government, honestly and
economically administered, may be en-
abled to discharge it's functions granting
equal rights to all and special privileges
to none.
1.-The departure Eeam these well under
stood and just principe has resulted in
giving us rich government, but max
ing us % poor people. A few have built
up immense fortunes. but the masses
are poor. The rich grow richer, the
poor grow poorer. The burdens of those
in debt are made heavier and the value
of fixed incomes is increased. 1t is not
surprising, then, that the farmers who
have been so long oppressed by unjust
exactions are beginning to investigate
for themselves the condition of the laws,
and to ask why there should not be some
effort to tighten the load under which
they stagger The Alliance, as under
stand it, was designed for the purpose of
aiding and enabling the farmers of the
county by investigation to understand,
and by organization to overthrow and
repeal, those laws which deny equal
rights to all, and which grant special
privileges to any In that undertaking
ali lovers of justice and fair play must
certainly bid you Godspeed, and l shall
deem it not only duty, but a pleasure,
both in Office and out of it, to contribute
whatever of industry and ability pos
sess to aid and cheer you in the struggle"
Judge Crisp does not favor the sub
treasury bill, his chief objection being
that it conflicts with his motto of
especial privileges to none" The relief
measures he suggests are increase
largely of the countrys currency, free
coinage of silver. tariff reduction, repeal
of all laws granting special privileges,
economical administration of the affairs
Of the government.

Organization the Remedy.

Political parties must be Taught that
this government cannot be safely run
exclusively for the benefit of the New
York banker and the millionaire: that
the great producing interests are being
ruined by the financial policy Of our
country, and that the demonstration Of
silver at the time of our greatest need
was IN objectionable crime, bringing
ruin and untold misery to thousands.

Il HINT FOR YOUNG GIRLS.

When your sweetheart comes to see
you, don't be foolish enough to confine
your sweetness to him alone. Have
him in where all the rest Of the house
hold are. Let the talk and the chatter
and the music and the playing of
games be in the h3me circle. Then
the few minutes thu he gets with you
by yourself will seeM all the more de-
lightful, and he will think you the most
loving little creature in the world.
Men are much more observant than
they L credited with being, and the
man worth having as a husband is the
one who will appreciate your love for
those of your w people and will see
that as you make a small part in one
home, you RE becoming adapted for the
central figure in another.
Never say that you don't expect a
man to marry your whole family. It's
vulgar. You do. That is, if you are q
good daughter and loving sister. You
want him to be II with you in sympa-
thy and in affection, and as you take
as name, SO you responsible
ties as far as his people are concerned.
You two are the most to each other
ycnr love for each other should be the
greatest, but you a not isolate your
selves and insist that you have no
duties outside your own home. If you
do this you become narrow and selfish,
and you are quite too nice a girl for
that. So remember, when he comes,
bridegroom of yours, that his heart
is bound the tighter to you if the rib
bon used to hold it has written upon it

Il am glad your name is Mary" said
MI. Slowcoach to his sweetheart, whom
he had been counting for several
years.
Why 500"
Because I was reading to-day and
came across a line which said Mary is
the sweetest name that woman ever
bore"
"That is POLITICALLY expressed. I've
heard my father say it to my mother,
whose name is Mary. It IS from some
poet isn't it?"
q believe So"
But I have also heard my father say
that there was even asweeter name than
Mary"
II think he must have been mis-
TAKEN" said the lover as he tenderly
pressed his s~weetheart's hand.
mo, I do not think he was mis-
taken"
"Wha was the other name?"
A beautiful blush sufrused the charm
ing maiden's cheek, the silken lashes
fell and yelled the lovely eyes, and in
a tone as soft as the whisperings of an
A1olian harp, she ~murmured:
Wife"
