Notes.

Grain shippers are vigorously kicking
against the charge they claim the
Southern Pacific company makes for
hauling wheat and barley cars between
Park station and the San Fernando
street depot. A merchant yesterday
told a HERALD reporter that the charge
for this was four cents a hundred, when
the grain could be transported between
the two places for two cents hundred
by teams.
The overland trains arrived yesterday
over the Santa Fe route, bringing mail
and passengers. The trains had been
tied up in the Kansas snow blockade.
General Freight Agent G. f. Smur, OF
the Southern Pacific, has received
dispatch announcing that Roswell Miller,
president OF the Western Traffic associa-
ton, has called a meeting to be held in
Chicago on Friday, for the purpose OF
learning from the different roads in
which association they wish their re-
spective territories placed. Under in
structions from the advisory board the
six commissioners elected to preside
over the destinies OF the different asso-
on the expediency OF joining freight and

Mention was made few weeks ago,
says the San Francisco Chronicle, of the
intention of the Central Pacific to make
a test as to the most economical fuel to
use, wood or coal, on the steep grade to
Summit. The test was made on three
trips each with coal and then with wood,
the train consisting OF an engine and
fourteen empty cars, equal to six loaded
cars. The result showed the difference
to be very slightly in favor OF using
coal. It took fourteen and three-fourths
cords of wood ON an average, and about
twelve tons of coal. The company will
probably continue to use wood.

EIGHTY THOUSAND STRONG.

From the Southern Alliance Farmer.
The Alliance Of Georgia now numbers
$4,000 members, and there never was so
loyal, true, brave and determined band
formed. The most glorious news reaches
US from every section Of our state. We
are increasing daily in both numbers and
enthusiasm. At a few days notice we
can gather from 1900 to 10000 people to
listen to an address. If an Alliance
speech Is announced the boys viii lay
everything aside and come to the rally.
Is there any power on earth that can
down such men? Why, in 1892 the Ali
ance will sweep over Georgia like q
cyclone, and every object in its path will
90 down. You can't either divide or dis
courage us. Our organization Is anchored
as q rock, and all the powers Of our
enemies cannot even jostle US. II the
Alliance decides TO 60 with the new
party, the old politicians had just as well
stand aside. The old bosses may crack
their whips over the farmers and yell,
"nigger supremacy" the partisan papers
may snort and rave, and the politicians
yell themselves hoarse, but they can't
stay the stampede. Georgia Alliance
men are going TO stand together, work
together and vote together. The more
you abuse and villlfy them, the stronger
they grow.

THE Democrat says that the Re-

ALLIANCE PICNIC IN DAVIDSON COUNTY,
NORTH CAROLINA.

ALLIAkCE PICNIC In DAVIDSON CUUNTI,
NORTH CAROLINA.
Colonel Polk addressed an immense
Alliance audience at Thomssville
Baptist Orphanage on the 7th Of
August. In the report of his remarks
we find the following:
He denounced the inactiOn of the Democratic
and Republican parties, which keeps from the
people the benefits which good government
should bestOw upon It's people and stated that
the object Of the Alliance was to secure as speed
lily as possible the prompt enactment Of such
laws as will insure to the farmers protection In
all their rights equal with the more favored
classes.
He stated that the whole trouble with the
people lies In the iniquitOus and unequal flnan-
clal system OF the government. He advocated
principles, not parties; measures, not men. The
elevation Of public and political morals, the re-
cOgnitiOn Of merit, honor and true patriotism as
the standard Of availability to positions Of trust.
Under the iervOr of honest indignation he ar
raigned In scathing language those who uniuStly
abuse the objects and purposes Of the Alliance
through ignorance obtained from the garbled
and mlSStated reports Of the partisan neWSpa-
perS.
At the conclusion Of Colonel Folks speech Mr..
Clay Thomas, In beautiful picture Of gorgeous
wOrd-palnting, presented him with a most ex-
qulslte basket formed Of the rarest varlegated,
sweet scented flowers, gift from the Pilgrim
Band. Colonel Polk responded In few re-
marks which were laden with that thrilling elO-
quence for which he Is so famous all over this
bright land Of ours. A committee was appointed
to take up a collection for the Orphanage. The
people responded in a liberal contribution
amounting to $20.6O. After this an intermisslOn
Of an hour.
By invitation from the AlIancemen and ladies',
the orphans and all connected with the orphan
age were taken in charge and most generously
and SumptuOusly feasted upon the bountiful
supply of victualS which were spread out in such
profuSlOn before them.

IN the contract
Thus il rs in the power Of the
creditor class at all times to specially
provide in their contracts for pay
ment in gold, and, by such provision,
to destroy the legal tender function
Of silver at will. A legal tender is
something that by law all creditors
may be compelled to receive for every
form Of debt; and as the present law
empowers the creditor class to pro-
vide by special contract for payment
in gold alone, silver is not legal
tender except so far as they choose to
accept it as such. The borrower is
always at the mercy of the lender in
this respect.

SILVER AS LEGAL TENDER,
SPENCER, Iowa, August 26.

SPENCER, Iowa, August 26. 1891.
EDITOR ADvoCAYE:-Wlll you please to In
form me, through THE ADVOCATE or otherwise,
to what extent silver Ia or Is not legal tender,
and at what time It's legal tender function was
impaired. Respectfully,
A. j. RowLEY.
The legal tender function of silver
was wiped out by the act Of 1873 by
which it was demonetized. BY the
Bland bill, which became a law Feb
ruary %, 1878, it's monetary function
was partially restored. That act,
however, contained the following
clause relating to the coins provided
for.
Which coins, together with all silver dollars
heretofore coined by the United States, Of like
weight and nneneSS, shall be legal tender, at
their nominal value, for all debts and Dues pub
lie and private, erccpt IUhSrc otherwise erDrcSslu
stipulated n the contract.
This Bland act remained the law up
TO July 4, 1890, when the "ACt direct
ing the purchase of silver bullion and
the issue of treasury notes thereon,
and for other purposes" became a
law. This act contained the follow
ing clause.
And such treasury notes shan BE- . legal

Celery

celery grower gives the following di-
rections for growing and storing celery.
This Is one way. The first Is a caution to
begin in small way and grow into
knowledge of the requirements of the
business. deep, mellow soil that will
produce good cabbages or corn will grow
good celery Early in the spring as soon
a. the ground can be worked, select a
warm piece of land. Manure 1t well with
good, well-rotted stable manure, and thor
oughly incorporate in the soil. In this
SOW the seed with drill, one ounce of
seed being enough to produce about 1000
plants. Keep the weeds out until July /.
Transplantng should now begin, and for a
succession of plants continued until about
Aug 20. This land should be fertilized
well with stable manure. You cannot pu'
on too Uuch. Mark the rows four feet
apart. Plant on level ground, using no
llcnch. The plants should be six inches
apart in the rows, which should be least
three feet apart. Those set in July shonld
he ready to be handled by September,
that IL. earth should be drawn around
them to make the leaves stand upright
Always be careful not to have any earth
fall into the center. A month later begin
to bank up to blanch the stalks and In
November, about Thanksgiving, the celery
is ready for the market The best way to
keep 1t into winter is in cool cellar with
an earthen floor. Set it in rows close to-
gether about ten inches wide, packing
damp earth about the roots, Set a board
upright against each strip Of celery. In
other words, form board partitions ten
inches apart, between which the celery is
closely set These partitions are needed
to keep the plants from killing, excluding
the light. Mirror & Farmer.
