WILL THEY PASS TIL S
Z AROUND?

7 will be remembered that the Op
Il position papers Of tie country,
some weeks ago, published with great
gusto a bogus telegram stating that
S. B Erwin, President Of the Ken
lucky State Al lance, had repudiated
the Sub Treasury bill and was out and
out against it. This paper gave it no
attention because it did not believe it.
We knew Bro. Erwin to be a true,
jealous and sturdy Alliance man and
that in due time be would speak for
himself. His only objection to the
bill seems to be that it does not go far
enough. Bro. Erwin speaks for him
self through the columns of his paper,
the Kentucky State Union. Will the
papers that gave circulation to this
falsehood correct it by publishing the
following from the pen OF Bro. Erwin?
Many thanks to you gentlemen for
your complimentary letters, but neither
myself nor the Kentucky State Union
is fighting the Sub.Treasury. The
principle IS right and must prevail.
The present bill before Congress we
do not favor because it does not reach
far enough. AS we have said before,
in our congressional district composed
Of thirteen counties We would be en-
titled 10 but one warehouse. If the
SUB Treasury bill Will be so amended
as to reach the men that need 1.-THE
class that need it is the wealth pro
ducers, though they may be worth but
a few hundred dollars. We fully en-
iorse the demand, Of the ST. Louis
platform as agreed to by the knights
of Labor and Unions. 1t is u pur
pose to relieve The oppressed, and
that should be our aim. Let no one
think Tor a moment that we are di
vided on the ub.Treasury priaciple.
This is the leading feature Of our
ord>r. We must have cheap money.
We an only get it through a Sub
TT .asury. There is oct an organiza
tion or earth that IS more united on
one principle than the Union on the
Su5 Treasury prime PIE. The details
is what we are discussing; consequent
Iy let 1he discussion go on, we vii.
by and by get a bill that will reach

SENATOR VANCE AND The AL
4 LIHNCE.

IN h EaY'e, Of the 3Osu nit, is a
/ report OF The speech made in Dal
las recently by Senator Vance, il
which he is reported 70 have said,
tou;hing the Sub Treas ny oil:
He wrote to Mr.. Carr and told
him he could not support i, and hen
it vas he declared that the assaults
began to be made upon him, but he
declared that the Alliance as a body
was not going back GA him, and said
that every candidate for the Legislature
except three were pledged to nim.
He said that as far as the Sub Treasury
bill was concerned the Allia. c. was
not agreed upon it, and that he de
manded that the jury be agreed before
they hang hin for not supporting it.
He said if he voted for it and it was
not constitutional, the devil would
get him, not them, as he had taken an
oath to support the constitution"
The PROGRESSIVE FARMER had hoped
that the Senator would so modify his
views on this great measure as that
good and true Alliance men could
consistently give him their support.
But he persists in declaring the bill
unconstitutional. In shorl, Senator
Vance annot and will pc5 support
that measure, and yet he claims that
"evely candidate for the legislature
except three are pledged to him."
Senator Vance makes the issue clear
the Alliance must abandon Mis measure
or 1t must abandon him. What answer
will the Alliance of North Carolina
make to this proposition ? AS the
official organ of the order in our
State, THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER
would be Oasely recreant and PREACHER
Gus to its high trust if it faltered in
the discharge of its sacred duty. 1t
cannot and will not support any man
for Senator who thus }~l4ces himself
in antagonism to a measure which lies
so near the heart of this great order.
We will not abandon the Sub Ire sury
plan, but We intend to do all in our
power to secure legislation that will
bring the relief to oppressed peo
pie contemplated in this bill. So far
as this paper is concerned, it will
not give up this measure Tor any man.

Porter, the Superintendent of
Census, evidently is not as smart as he
thought he was. The New York
World says that two months ago the
Census Bureau gave an estimate of
the population of the country, from
the returns received, indicating a total
of 64,2ll,26 g. The official figures
now put forth reduce this nearly

To lay down any hard aud fat rule
