NOTES FROM THE FIELD.
NEWS CT THE MOVEMENT FROM
ALL QUARTERS.

Great Alliance Progress in North Caro-
lima. Texas, California and Other States.
Growth of the Order Everywhere.
The Alliance in North Carolina has
every county in that state organized,
and its status may be seen from the fol-
lowing extracts taken from the official
report of the state secretary:
The secretary's report for last August
one year ago shows that there had been
issued 2,147 charters to sub-Alliances.
and that 81 counties had been organized
that only county remained out of the
fold. There was at that time an aggre-
gate Of 10000 members belonging to the
Farmers Alliance in the state. | find
that - charters are on file which have
been surrendered in the past year. Only
So sub Alliances have surrendered their
charters since the Alliance started in tue
state, but these, in a number of in
stances, consolidated with other sub
Alliances, and in the remainder the
members have joined other lodges. Now
we have numbered 2,22l sub and 90

SENATOR w. A. PETER, OF KANSAS.
county Alliances-an increase of "A SUB
and county Alliance from last report
The order numbers more than 100, 900 in
this state.
at is rather strange that the first
point on which white people landed in
North Carolina was the last part of the
state which should be organized by our
order. and that the last sub-Alliance
formed, necessary to bring the last conn
ty into our organization, was at or near
the very spot where it is said that the
birth of Virginia Dare took place--the
first white child known to be born on
our soil; that this sub-Alliance was
named Virginia Dare, but afterward
changed to Raleigh"
In addition to this. tho secretary
writes:
81 can safely sag that the Alliance is
more determined now, and in much bet
ter shape than since it started In the
state. The whole ground is seemingly
covered, yet we are sending out new
charters constantly. 1t is now solid,
and will remain So"
We have now thirteen reform papers
in the North Carolina Press Reform as.
ISOLATION.
Secretary Dawes gives tne following
report from Texas: eve have had more
and stronger opposition in this state this
year than we have ever had from the be-
ginning The enemy has been very &C.
tive. He has had the services of all our
congressman and United States senators
since the adjournment of congress, who
have worked hard against the farmers,
and have been very bitter in their fight
from one end of the state to the other.
They are men that the farmers of Texas
have loved and voted for in very cleo
ton for fifteen and twenty years past.
Why they have turned against us now
when we need their friendship so much
cannot tell. But the Alliance farmers
are faithful to their principles. Con-
sentative in their action while working
hard for the building up of the order,
meeting the opposition boldly.
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1891-11-24


"The results are victories for the
farmers in every part of the state. Over
500 new sub-Alliances have been organ
lied since the fight commenced in ear
nest. Ten new county Alliances have
been formed. A very large number oil
dormant Alliances have revived and
gone to work. The farmers had not
been very active in their organization
for some years until this bitter fight
against them by these politicians, who
had been their leaders in the past.
With every effort Of the enemy the day
grows brighter for the farmers organi.
cation. Every battle drives the people
closer together and bege.s double activ.
ity among our people"
Business failures continue, not with
standing the alleged booming times.
Last week there were 236 failures in the
United States: the week previous 235;
corresponding week in 1880, 1877; in 1899,
100; in 1888, rs: in 1887. AS. While
the two old parties are assuring the peo-
pie that times are good and business
prospecting, the financial barometer Of
failures disCloses q far different coudi-
tiou. Iowa Tribune.
President Cannon. Of the California
state Alliance. says:
''In building the Union Pacific rail-
road the company itself invested S2lS, 900
and pocketed $l41.20S.770. The Central
Pacific railroad company invested $62,-
900 and pcclIeted &l36,000, 900. These
companies now owe the people $3.50, 0O0,-
W0 and refuse to pay dollar. The pep
pie have built and twice paid the cost Of
every one Of the railroads to the Pacific
coast, and every five years we pay for
them again in freights and fares. These
monster monopolies have the entire Pa
cifc coast by the throat and are choking
all our industries to death with their
shiny grip. While they wall in this
state on the east, their friends build a
;aritf wall across the Golden Gate that
ines vessels $10,0O0,000 Il year to enter
and discharge their cargoes."
Official reports Of 1890 showed that
there were 1867 banks in the country.
They reported total bank circulation Of
S125, 49, 56. They loaned out $780,
022.6S7. In other words, they loaned out
nearly two billions Of dollars more than
their legitimate circulation. Will some
body tell how they did this2
The railroads continue to fatten and
grow powerful on the liberali.y Of the
government. In 1872 tremendous
quantity Of land was granted to the
Northern Pacific Railroad company
when the route of the lines was outlined.
These lands were then given as a kind of
subsidy to encourage the building of the
railroad. The lands were afterward
found to be rich in minerals. Last
month the United States circuit court at
Fargo, N. d., gave clear fee simple
title to the road for all the lands, and the
railroad company thus gobbled up twenty
millions worth of property at one little
gobble. This will give them n power
which will enable them to make some
much bigger gobbles within the near
future.

SOLID CHUNKS OF WISDOM.
From President j. NJ. Joseph. of the
iowa Alliance.


The duties of the farmer include very
much more than the cultivation of the
land and the production of crops. Upon
him more than upon any one else de-
ponds the character of public institu-
lions and the welfare of all classes Of
people. With him mainly rests the re-
sponsibility of good or bad government.
There is a widespread belief among
farmers that in our haste as nation to
be rich and great, in our rapid march
from very simple to II very complex
civilization, we have lost sight of that
splendid stoEe our fathers carved with
infinite labor and placed in the founda-
tiou of our plan of government-equal
rights to all; special privileges to none.
This is the block of political granite upon
which not only the Farmers Alliance,
but republican government itself must
stand.

At the beginnJ 9 of the cold weather
bats begin to middle together in regu-
lar punches in hollow trees, dark cor
ners in deserte houses or in caves in
the rocks. II gradually lose all SEN
Eibility Ind CO tinue in a drowsy state
until the r. urn of genuine warm
weather. T. little hooks at the END
of the joints f each wing Of a bat are
what the bar hangs itself up by when it
goes TO SLEEP.
When the bats are clustering for
their winters sleep one of the number
hangs itself in this way, head down
ward and the others cling 10 il. 1t is
said that sixty bats have been found in
one cluster. the entire weight of the
lot being sustained by the n bat with
his hooks clinging to whatever he
fastened them 70 at the start. The
position of the central bat in such a
cluster would be like that of a man
hanging 10 something by ms thumb
nails and supporting the weight Of
ffty-nine other men. Bats that have
obtained the outside position in punches
of this kind have been found so badly
frozen that their wings could be broken
like brittle candy, yet, on putting them
in a warm place, they soon 'thawed
out and came 10 life as if nothing had
happened 70 them.-Detroit Free Press

Its too bad, lady, but you've drop
ped a elevated railroad ticket inter the
box, said a bridge ticket chopper.
"Oh, that's all right, said the wom-
an Il put the bridge ticket in the ele-
waited railroad box"
Then she moved on into the station.
having failed TO catch the idea which
the chopper had in his mind when he
touched her on the elbow. The chop
per's remark was meant TO be a round
about demand for a bridge ticket. But
the woman understood the remark
literally. She thought that a kind
hearted public functiOnary had ex-
pressed his regret that she should have
put a five-cent ticket in the box when
a decentralization ticket would have
been good enough.
But if the woman failed TO read the
mind of the chopper, she certainly non
plused him with her answer. and il was
not until she had become lost in the
great crowd which was waiting for
transportation that it dawued upon the
chopper that he would have served his
employers better il he had not been so
civil.-New YorkLfimes.

7sed to travel with me night and day,
and that was that some time. sooner or
later, / would be killed at a fire. Ihavs
escaped l think l may say that there
are few men in the department who do
not have that sort of a superstition. al
though not one will admit it. In a big
city like Chicago / think every man
takes his life in his hand whenever he
goes out, but / do not think a fireman
has more chances for dying at his post
than the average business man."-Ch
