Madison county Alliance, in view of
the dissatisfaction evidenced by the
resolution of Flora Sub Alliance land
petitions from many portions of the
county, and that this may be appeas-
ed and harmony restored in the ranks
of the Democraticparty, we request the
Democratic Executive Committee at
as early u date as convenient to take
some action that will clearly show the
will of the voters of this county as to
their preference for United States
Senator for this State and that said
Democratic Executive Committee re-
quire of the representatives to the
Legislature nominated on the Demo-
cratic ticket that they obey the will OF
the majority SO expressed.
Another resolution was adopted in
regard to wheat culture and Touring
mills and committee appointed to
interest each Sub-Alliance in this
matter and provide way for coop
Grafton.
Many others were adopted looking
to the good of the order in this county
and in the State, and the general feel
ing that prevailed is that the Alliance
has accomplished more at this meet
ing than at any previous one, and
hat the Madison county Alliance peO-
- cause to be glad that the
meeting at Pearl a.. - man
was composed of representa-,
and women who are alive to the great
interests at stake. Bro. Hobbs of the
BROOKHAyEN LEADER was present
and made strong presentation of the
Alliance demands, in which he showed
their compatibility and also the SUI
preme necessity for strong and deter
mined effort by the Alliance in order
that these desired reforms in Ma
tional legislation may be brought
about in time to relieve this genera
ton from the oppression that it now
is labOring under.
The elegant fare, magnificent order
and that brotherly and sisterly kind
ness that the members of Pearl ALI
ance showed to the delegates and Wis
itors impressed us all and we know
more of how to be hospitable thar. we
did. Among other notes taken the
splendid example set by Pearl in en-
pertaining will help us all in the flu
ture. That beautiful song at parting,
"God be with you till we meet
again - made many tear well up in
eyes that were not accustomed to
weeping.
Madison County Alliance meets next
time with Canton Alliance in Novem-
Der, about the 3rd Wednesday.
