MECKLENBURG COUNTY ALI
ANCE ENDORSES THE PRO-
GRESSIVE FARMER.

Mr.. EDIToR:-At a late meet
ing of the Mecklenburg County
Farmers Alliance, a resolution, en-.
dorsing The PROGRESSIVE FARMER in
the matter of difference with Senator
Vance, was adopted. This county,
Mr.. Editor, has, ever since the "late
unpleasantness," been the home of the
honored Senator, and no people de-
light more to do him honor than the
people of this county; but we do not
think he has, as yet, attained to infal-
ibility, or oven to such a degree of
superiority to the common herd F" as
to be beyond criticism. We are sim
pie enough to think that he, the
creature, should do what the people,
his official creator, ask, or give them
something better We think that VoG
popuI should be Uor senator's. We do
not think he " toted fair" with US in
the matter Of the Sub Treasury.
Whether it was right or wrong, com
ing as it did directly from the people,
We thought it deserved more attention
than it received at his hands.

THE ~sUB-TREAsURY BILL.

Mr.. EDIToR:-Congress has the ex.
elusive right to regulate commerce
between the several States and with
foreign countries. In the exercise of
this right it would be exceedingly ap
propriate for Congress to carry out
the purposes of the Sub Treasury bill,
and build warehouses to hold the sur
plus products of labor. 1t would
thus regulate the sale OF this surplus
so that it would not be forced upon
the markets at the same time and
thus be subjected to the extortions of
spectators. If the government
should pay 80 per cent. of the value
OF the products so deposited to the
owners, it would be nothing more
than 1t does for the national banks,
and 1t would be a fit tribute to the
real worth and dignity of manual
LABOR, and a proper ackno wledgement
OF the value of the laboring classes to
the government. | am a strict con.
structionist of the Constitution. but if
that elastic instrument is to be-
stretched at all it must be stretched
as much in favor of the laboring as of
any other classes.
Very respectfully,

WRITTEN FOE THE DISPATCH. J

If BENJAMIN Franklin had waited until
the present time to write that delightful let
ter to young people in which he advocates
early marriages, he would never have writ
ten it. He was too obserVant a man and too
true an adviser to have done it conscien-
tiously in this day. Perhaps in the days
when eur grandfathers' grandfathers were
young men and were contemplating seriously
the advantages and disadvantages of matri-
mony, that was good advice. 1t is good ad-
vice now-for young men who have wealthy
fathers or large and sure incomes. But
things have changed since Franklin died, to
use an adaptation of slang remark Of some
popularity.
have been making some inquiries among
my friends, married and unmarried, to see
just how much things have changed. There
are even now some alleged philosophers and
philanthropists who advocate early mar
riages as means of saving and increasing
health and happiness. The health and hap
piness are all right; no one doubts they will
follow a judicial mating, but can q saving
follow2 If those advisers would do little
observing for themselves and not let an
improved theory" back up any and all
statements, they would have discovered what
shall endesvor to show below.
MEN OF MODERATE MEANS.
This argument refers only to those young
men who have moderate and small means
and incomes. The youth whose papa is
worth half million, more or less, and has
no brothers and sisters, may marry as soon
as he chooses. But the young men who are
earning from, we'll, say $40 or $12 week up
to $25 per week may be interested in the
figures given below. And perhaps you
young men, yet unmarried, who have large
incomes or rich papas will find the figures
worth reading, for you know riches some
times, in fact very often in these days, take
unto themselves wings.
The first young man I spoke to Is single.
and I endeavored to get him to tell me how
he manages to live on a salary OF S12 week,
about the minimum I take it of the salaries
received by the average young man of his
age and station, for he is % years old and
fairly we'll educated. He is salesman in
book and stationery goods store no: far
from the Pittsburg postof6ce. where he has
been employed about six years. When he
came to this city he was green, and for the
first two years existed on only little more
than half his present income. It was then,
no doubt, that he acquired the habit OF
keeping en- account of the principal items of
his expenditures. He is always well-dressed,
always has few dollars In his pockets, is
not known among his friends as "close
fellow" though never does he spend great
deal. He permitted me to copy off this page
Of his little memorandum book. It shows
his expenses for the year ending January 1,
last.

"The hardest things in the world to sell

veteran clerk in one Of the leading retail

in and wants hat and OF course he knows
his size and be thinks he knows the kind of
hat he wants; but when he sees three or
four different shapes and observes the sp-
pearance he makes In each hat, as he tries
it on, he appears to become bewildered.
Very few men make studies Of their own
heads aud faces before q mirror until they
enter hat store, and then they look strange
in their own eyes.
"With women 1t is different Women
are great devotees Of the mirror, and
especially as regards their heads and faces.
Why are bonnets hard articles to sell? 1t
is because OF the intuItive self-conceit OF
women. No woman lives who ever saw q

say TO herself that she could have taken the
same material and make bettsr bonnet"
