AS 1T IS.

Mr.. EDITORIAL the last stated meet
ing of Whitaker's Alliance, No. 1873,
held Oct. /, 1891. the following pre-.
amble and resolutions were unani
mOusly adopted by a rising vote and
copy of the same to THE PROGRESSIVE
FARMER. the Farmers Advocate and
the Rur0L Home, with request for pub.
~licatiOn:
WHEREAS, 1t seems to be the policy
of certain so called Democratic news
apers in North Carolina to knife the
Farmers Alliance with the one hand
and ask it's co operation with the other.
Therefore be it
Re8OIUed, BY this Alliance in session
assembled, every one of us being Demo
Gratis, that we denOunce the course Of
said papers as being undemOcratic and
at variance with the customs and prin-
ciples Of Jeffersonian and JacksOnian
Democracy.
Resolred, That the seemingly pre-
concerted plan of these papers in max
ing a general attack on President L. L.
Polk and the officers of our Order, and
through them on the Farmers Alliance
itself, merits the condemnation of
every true Allianceman in North
Carolina.
Resolved further, That in copying
malicious falsehoods from Republican
papers, when they know the purpose
and falsity of the charges is contempt
ible and unbecoming the conduct of
manly journalism.
ResOlred finally, That as these papers
have seemingly construed our quietude
and conservatism into vacillation and
weakness. That hereafter we will re-
sent these indignities, for we feel that
it is not President L. L Polk and our
officers aimed at, but the vital prin-
ciples of u great Order.

The Chinch Bug.-Fhis is a sucking
insect in all it's stages, and the young
differ from the adult in not possessing
wings. and hence in not being able to
hy as does the adult. This insect
feeds on nearly all grasses which CON
tains all the cereals and grasses, tame
and wild. The remedies can b classed
under three general heads, as follows:
q. Agricultural methods. b. Barriers
against migration. C. Direct destruc-
tiOn. Under the first of these heads
are included 1, cleanfarming, especially
the cleaning up of refuse that may serve
as protection for the bugs during the
! winter. and the destruction OF the
| grass-like weeds upon which they feed {;
2 diversified farming and the culture
of crops not affected by the chinch bug;
3. the temporary abandonment, in cOrn
districts. of small grains, especially
wheat and barley, and Uice UeTS0;; 4,
heavy fertilization to enable the crops
better to withstand attacks; 5, the use
of surplus seeds, or the mixing of
| timothy or clover seeds with small
grains when sOwed, reproduce a heavy
| growth in which chinch bugs do not
like to work; 6, blowing under the bugs
and their eggs wherever this is prac-
ticable. Under the head Of barriers
| against migration" are included, /,
blowing and narrowing at harvest time
around infested fields or plOwlng one
or two deep burrows around the field;
3, pouring coal tar along the ground
| Just outside the infested fields; 3,
planting strips with crops not subject
to injury by chinch bugs.
But the most satisfactory class Of
remedies are those by which the insects
are killed outright, and in future out
breaks these will undoubtedly play a
much more important part than in the
past The bugs are easily destroyed
| by kerosene emulsion, and by means
of the improved spraying machines
now upon the market, this substitute
can advantageOusly be used against
them.
During fall, winter and spring, all
infested grass lands, and 50 far as pos
| sible wood lands, should be burned
| over to destroy the alternating bugs,
| Remarkable success has also lately
been attained in spraying and spread
ing the natural remedy-the fungous
diseases of the chinch bug.
Several other insects injurious to
wheat were discussed, followed by the
insects injurious to grape, peach, bean
and pear, cabbage, &c, but of which
time will not admit of recording here.

Y--ITS ORIGIN.

Mr.. EDITOR:-In the childhood of
the race the human family's wants
were small and were supplied by the
chase. AS the race advanced towards
civilization their wants increased and
they were supplied by barter and
trade. Continuing to make progress
they reached the point where they
found it i~ncOnvenient to make their
exchanges by barter. They sought
something that would represent the
substance and would be readily re-
ceived for the substance. This was the
sign of the substance and this was the
origin of money. Their wants were
few and they needed but little of the
sign to make their exchange. AS the
race advanced in civilization their
wants increased and the demand for
the sign increased i'll the same ratio. 1t
is now an AKIN. The higher the civil
zatiOn the greater Our wants, and the
0 we produce the larger the
amount Of money we need to exchange
it. The half civilized consume more
than the barbarian, the civilized more
than the half civilized and the highly
civilized more than the civilized, It
follows as a sequence that When q ma
ton has reached a point where it de-
mands nor money to exchange the
substances, and if it is not furnished
civilization is retarded and the growth
stunted, and if there is a contraction
of the volume of money and this is per-
sisted in it leads to national decay and
eventually death. Money bears the
same relation to our industries as blood
does to, the human system. Extract
money from the channels of trade and
u industries languish as much so as
the human system languishes and
becomes enfeebled by depicting it of
blood.
WHY WE NEED MORE MONEY.
Fifty to sixty years ago we had no
mammoth machinery, but in it's place
we had the hand loom, spinning wheel
and the slow coach. Nearly all we
consumed was made at home. The
wagon and the blacksmith and country
lanyard took their living in barter for
their work. The volume of none
needed to make our exchange was
small. All this is changed. In the
place of the slow coach and the spin
ming wheel we have the iron horse and
mammoth machinery. All we pro
duce is now exchanged for what we
want. We produce and consume four
times as much per capita to be e.
changed as we did fifty years ago.
hence we need four times as much
money per capita.
We consume twice as much of the
n~ecessaries and luxuries of life as any
other civilization on the globe. This
calls for twice as much money as any
other nation. Our population extends
over double and treble the territory
OF any, civilized country in Europe.
This calls for more money. We are a
young nation and have a score of I'M
developed resources where Europeans
have one. This calls for more money.
1t is a money famine that is distress
ing the wealth producers, coupled with
u pernicious system of getting it in
circulation. Over six hundred millions
of u gold and silver certificates r

WILLARDSVILLE, N. G..
Mr.. EDITOR:-If you will allow me
space in your valuable paper l will pen
you a few lines from Round Hill ALI
ance, No. 1856. We number So mem
bers and all are fully awake to the i'm
pOrtance of the great reform move
ment. At our last meeting the follow
ing resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
ResoIUed, That we fully endorse all
the demands of the Alliance as laid
down in the Ocala platform.
I'd. That we will not support any
man that is not favor of these de
mands.
Sd. That we denounce the partisan
press for their attacks on our leaders
in order to break down the Alliance.
and that we will not support any paper
that opposes cause.
4th. That a copy of these resolutions
be sent to HE PROGRESSIVE FARMER for
publication.
Some Of our members, including my
self, had the pleasure Of hearing some
very fine speeches delivered by Bro.
w. f. Willets and Hon. Jerry Simp-
son at a mass meeting in Durham on
the 28th of August. l don't think that
two better speeches were ever deliv-
cred in North Carolina. Their argu-
ments were unanswerable. Col. L. L..
Polk, our beloved National President,
was also present but did not make a
speech, as he was unwell, but made a
few remarks stating how he had been
misrepresented by the partisan press.
He also advised us to stand united as a
body and all would be we'll. Please
tell Col. Polk, Bro. Willets and Bro.
Simpson to come again. With best

country wants Jul grain, and has be-
gun to pay for it in some of u own
gold. A few days ago some status
tician or "fnancier" made a state.
ment that three hundred millions OF
u gold would be sent back here to
buv our grain. This sounded prosper
Gus and encouraging.
But all these bright hopes have been
blasted by a statement recently made
bv a European financier and money
king. He is Mr.. Robert Giffen, of
London, head of the commercial de-
partment and controller Of the coin re-
turns of the British board of trade. He
was asked if $500, 900, 0O0 Of our gold
would be sent back here to buy u
grain. He laughed at the question
and ridiculed it. Why" he said,
"before $500. 900, 900 was sent back to
America the Bank of England and the
Bank of France would both raise their
rates of discount and check the drain"
Do YOU see anything in this? Can't
YOU see that so long as we have only
one legal tender coin the Bank of Eng
land and the Bank of France have the
power to contract I'LL currency and
thereby depress the price Of our prod
ucts, both agricultural and mechanl
call? Are we the suppliants and min
ions of other countries? Oh, men OF
the United States, let's up and be doing
and watching! Let's study u de-
mands nor deeply and thoroughly,
for the more they are studied the more
necessary and just they appear.
Now, suppose that silver was being
coined in the same manner as gold and
that he government said it was legal
tender, would England and France
have the power Over us they have
now? Would their refusal to send
back our gold have such a disastrous
effect on the prices of u products?
No. There would be a greater volume
Of honest" legal tender money. 1t
would circulate. 1t would go among
the people and they would exchange it
for food and clothing from the farms
and factories. If it were legal tender
in this country it would be the same
anywhere. Thenif Englanda and France
should get all the gold we would not
feel hurt. We would have othermoney,
and when they wanted to sell us any
thing they had, if they should refuse
our money, they could carry their
stuff back where they brought it from
and fight among themselves for the
gold.
The Alliance is unanimous in it's de-
mand for the free coinage measure. At
least one of the old political parties is
badly split up or it. democratic )"
conventions in the South want free
coinage democratic" conventions
in the East declare against it. Demo
cratic" conventions in some States
straddle the question. Some Demo
Gratis " howl for a man who is opposed
to free coinage of silver to be the next
Democratic" presidential nominee,
and other Democrats" are crying
out against the same man. And when
one reads about and hears about all
this muddle and turmoil among Dem,
Ocrats" he wonders in his soul "what
is Democracy anyhOw!'
There's ne mistaking the Alliance.

Hesiun FHy.-The most promising
method of preventing the injuries Of
this insect appears to be that of induc-
ing the flies to deposit their eggs in
young wheat, and then destroying it.
When a third brood develops in volun-
teer wheat this end may be accom-
plished by turning under this volunteer
growth when the hessian fly larvae are
about half grown; or in case n O such
brood develops in the volunteer wheat,
a few strips in the field may be seeded
to wheat a few weeks before the regu-
lar planting time, and the flies will lay
their eggs in these, which are after
wards to be plowed under. Thus the
main crop of wheat will escape infes-
tatiOn.
