Mr.. EDToR:-Aurora Alliance, No.

for a first, class Alliance.
Our people responded literally to

its earnest protest against the policy
of giving away the labor of our con.

the enactment of such laws as will
hereafter prevent this outrage on the
rights of the taxpayers of our State.
Resolved, That we demand such
changes in our laws as will reduce the
costs in litigation in minor causes, and
as shall enlarge the jurisdiction OF
our justices of the peace.
RESOLVED, That we demand that law;
shall be enacted to prohibit our pubic

A NOTE OF WARNING.

Mr.. EDIToR:-It has been discov-
cred that the plan of those who oppose
the Alliance in the coming campaign
will be to blacken the character of
every true Alliance man who dares to
become a candidate. Just on the ap-
proach of the primaries they will cir
culate evil reports against them if
possible to defeat their nomination.
Already have some Of the vllest
ISLANDERS and diabolical reports been
put in circulation against good men
without the slightest regard for truth
The brethren must not be cheated out
of their rights in this way. Every
sort of evil device will be resorted to
to defeat Alliance principles. A des-
perate effort is also being made to di-
vert the public mind from important
matters by the senseless hue and cry
about Senator Vance. The charlatans
pretend to believe their favorite is in
danger. This is all done to absorb
attention and cause us to forget the
railroad commission.
Let every Alliance nan who is
working for principle be wide awake.
Believe no report though it may be
garnished with the semblance of truth.
Those who oppose us are u~nrelenting
and INSCRIPTIONS in their effort to
blacken the character and fair name
of every true Alliance mar who has
the presumption to oppose the aristo-
cratic would be rulers. Take warn
ing, brethren. MOORE COUNTY.

escaped with his life. And when be
