to which you have called, me deem It m,
frst duty TO express my profound ap
probation ofthe confidence expressed b,
you, In thus bestowing such distinguishes
honors upon me; and hereby renew my
declaration made to our state council
that "thls confidence shall be held u
sacred as life ITSELF" and solemnly prom
ise you that so far IS my judgment shall
dictate, your interests shall be sacredly
guarded and promoted.
/ also gladly avail myself OF this op
poTtunity to congratulate you, land my
self alsO), on our good fortune In seCur-
ing as councillors for your chief execu,
tlve, such noble brothers and sisters, Of
such excellent abilities and fitness fol
their several positions, whose earnest
honest and Self-sacrificlng devotion to
the cause Of humanity, and whose years
Of constant service and efficient lsbors In
our order since Its earliest history In our
state; whose uprightnesS Of life and
moral character places each entirely
above reproach, and commands for them
Che confidence and respect of our entire
membership; as also that Of all lovers of
good morals who feel an interest in the
upbulldlng ofthe principles Of righteous
ness, truth and justice. With such officers
In charge the safety Of all our interests
10 insured for the ensuing year.
I desire to impress upon the minds Of
the entire brotherhood, that this is in
tended to be year Of special effort In
the line OF education upon the several
lines Of interest to our people; and not
ours only, but to all the industrial classes,
for to draw the line between US as to the
interests Of all is not plain to my mind.
In taking up this work we viii de-
pend largely upon our lecture system as
provided for at our state meeting at Sa-
Lima; and which Is under the supervision
and control Of the state president, and
for the further establishing Of our Con-
gresslonal district organizations, with
such changes as viii be found necessary
from practical experience. l feel that it is
very important that this plan should be
properly understood, therefore I herein
give S.Short outline of the plan agreed
upon, which we belleve,if understood, will
commend itself to every member Of our
order, and to which it is sincerely hoped
unanimous support will be given.
PLAN.
The state lecture board will consist Of
the state and assistant state lecturers, with
the several district lecturers. These will
be called together and will thoroughly
consider such question, or topics Ias
shall be agreed upon; then these win be
taken up In our several district meetings,
composed Of the district and county
lecturers Of the DISTRICT where similar
proceedings will be instituted with the
assistant Of the state, or assistant state
lecturer; and 80 on down TO county meet
ingA there inStltutlng same proceedings
with the district lecturer In charge.
It affords me real satisfaction to say to
you my brothers and sisters that In
Brother Scott and Sister McCOrmlck you
have very able and, efficient lecturers,
who win provetO TO the satisfaction OfGll
their eminent fitness for, theIr high CALI

but remember that inasmuch as this Ia
10 be year Of education but little time
can be given to public meetings for the
present, as our lecturers will require all
the time that can be given them at your
county meetings. For il will require at
least two addresses Of from one and one
half to two hours each.
Brothers, permit me to urge upon you
that You give attention as never before,
to the study Of buslness interests and ad-
vantsges to be had by and through Co
operation. l unhesitatingly declare, as I
have many times before, that if we, as
farmers, only knew the power we possess
and how to utilize that power, the bene-
flts that would be derived thereby are
beyond the comprehension Of a single
mind, and that too without injury to any
legitimate institution, profession or In
dustry. To acquire this knowledge Is
the work before US, and to assist In ac-
cOmplishlng this work will be the pollty
Of your present administration.
] feel 1t duty incumbent upon me as
your chief executive to most seriously
impress upon your minds, my brethren,
the fact that the Farmers Alliance and
Industrial Union is purely and absolutely
an industrial organization, whose objects
and purposes are distinctly and unequivo-
Cally act forth In our declaration of pur-
poses, and that strict adherence to these
Is insisted upon by your present admins
tration.
Space forbids my placing before you
In this address more than brief account
Of the splendid achievements Of our bust
ness institutions and fraternal work.
Suffice. it to say that In our farm line
OF insurance alone, enough was saved to
the patrons Of this single institution last
year to more than three times pay the
expenses Of the state Alliance for the
entire year; and through the purchase of |
one single article nearly $3O0,OOO,OOO |
were saved to the farmers Of Kansas.
This only represents a part of the
benefits derived through this Schannel by |
cooperation, to say nothing of local
savings.
Then above either Of these as q benefit |
Oestowing provision, is our life plan of
mutual insurance; It's conditions of mem
bership give us advantage over all others
~ to the cost Of securing and maintain
Ing policies.
Brothers and sisters, as your president,
who has an earnest abiding concern for
he good Of all, let me urge each Of you
o give this matter your earnest, un-
prejudiced consideration; for In this de-
oartment we have made provisions for
carrying out the grandest and noblest
Of our order, viz: Gearing for
he widows and orphans and developing
he principle Of the universal brother
rood ofman, ,"and the divine injunction of
Bear ye one another's burdens" and so
ulAl the law Of Christ.
In conclusion let me assure you that
Ve are entering upon the years labor
ull OF hope and confidence, notwith-
tanding our consciousness Of the i'm
nenSity of the task before US; and were
not for the unmistakAble evidence on
very hand of universal harmony and
Of Sentlmentthe united sup.
