A GREAT OPPORTUNITY
1873, 900 Acres Of Fine Land at
SLIPS per Acre.

5000 acres of Land in Western Texas,
watered by two never failing rivers of pure
water, with living water in different places
on the tract. Railroad runs through the
land for 40 miles and has four stations
within its boundary. The land has an ele-
walton of from ZOO to $500 leet above sea
level and an average rain fall according to
the signal report for the last ten years of
A.2 inches per annum. The country is of
limestone formation and is broken up into
hill, valley and table lands; producing
mesquite and gramma grasses on which
stock thrive all the year round without
other food. Fifty miles of fence will en-
close the whole tract; the increase can be
easily counted FROM 20 to 90 per cent. Stock
can be shipped direct from the rancho, thus
avoiding long drives. A like amount of
land can be leased from the state for 10
years at the rate of cents per acre per
snnum, thereby making ranch of $4,000
acres.

man pays as much as the rich man,
and then consider that. one-third of the
money goes to Washington every year
as taxes, and you have the thing down
to a focus-that the laboring people
are laboring for masters placed over
them by the fine arts of 1nanciering,
collecting interest on government
property and by taxation. This is not
all. Beside the governments system
of blind taxation on the consumers,
various trusts and combinations have
been organized to neutralize free COM
petition and levy another tax of the
same character. In view of these
burdens and robberies heaped up and
doubled up on the people, how long
will it require the people to learn their
rights, and in learning them, maintain
them LUCIUs LAGONE.

FROM BOGUE.
CARTERET, N. c., May 30, 1891.

CARTERET, N. c., May 30, 1891.
Mr.. EDITOR:-We are happy; the
Alliance seems to have taken a new
lease of life. We r looking forward
to a bright and glorious future for lib
erty and prosperity. Bro. F. S. Blair,
District Lecturer, has been in ou1
midst, and we feel very sur that his
powerful and sound logic has done
much good./ Judging from the com.
ments from outsiders, much good has
been done by him for our cause. Nc
mistake was made in selecting Bro.
Blair for our lecturer, and if the entire
lecture field has been supplied with
such sincere workers, cause will
predominant. On the 10Th, Eureka,
from Bogue, by invitation from the
Thistle Alliance, at Newport, joined
them in heart and hand in a picnic
dinner. The luscious viands showed
plainly that the fair hands had been
busy in preparing such a good dinner,
and that Newport is fortunate in being
blest with so many kind and beauti-
tiful women, who feel such thrilling
interest in u cause.
Bro. Ralph Rowland, the County
Lecturer, entertained the general audi
ence first, for sometime; then after
wards addressed his remarks to the
Order. His parallels with the ~opposites
show plainly the makeup of our
brother. He is the right man in the
right place. We believe our present
lecture system will so educate peo-
pie upon Alliance principles and
economic qUestions-cause them to
arouse themselves from their lethargy
to go forward to do Or die in the bright
heritage transmitted to them by their
ancestors. We believe unless the peo-
pie can be reused to their sense of duty
to their loved ones, their country, and
to their God; we believe unless the peo-
pie can be so aroused and be induced
to act in their own interest independ-
ent of party gOvernment-fOr we be-
ieve the parties are controlled by the
money pOwer-that we will ultimately
be enslaved.
See the struck eagle, stretched upon the plain,
No more in rolling clouds to soar again,
View his own feather on the fatal dart,
And wings the shaft that quivers in his heart.
Keen were his pangs, but keener far are to feel
He nursed the piniOn which impelled the steel"
So our people, they continue in sup
port of the old parties, who are but the
tools of the money power, will find
themselves and children shackled in
bonds of slavery. In the midst of all
their physical torture and suffering,
the keenest pang that they will feel
will be the knowledge that they have
given their ballots, which cost the
blood and lives of their heroic ances-
tors, and intend to protect religious
and civil liberty for their enslavement.
Respectfully, BoGUE.

THE FARM.



According to The NeW England
Farmer the gross cash income per
COW for the animals contributing to
the Connecticut creameries the past
year was $43.2O. Why would not that
be a nice little sum for some of our
farmers tt realize while making manure
from the COWS to enrich the soil for
other money crops? 1t is certain that
into the keep bills of the Connectl-
cut COWS there went long distance
freight charges on cotton seed meal,
and the corn meal. Ensilage, too, on
the rugged New England hill-sides cost
more to produce and had a higher
cash value than similar articles here.
We can count on an advantage in the
cost of food. No freight charges on
cotton seed meal and cotton seed bulls
makes them cheap when other articles
are scarce.
We can make ensilage cheaper than
the Northern farmer because of less
expense to keep cold out, and cheaper
labor, to put corn in, as well as less
cost for lumber to build a silo. Then
why not stir about a little toward
receiving an income from our COWS in
cash?-Fr0nk b. Emery, AgricmltWrlst

Raleigh, n. O., May 90, 1891

ACd104Su, IN. w., mdy ~, 1871.
To the County Commissioners and Jus
tees Of the Peace Of North Carolina:
GENTLEMEN:-I call your attention
to the enclosed resolution passed by
the recent Industrial Convention which
assembled in this city on the 18th of
the present month. l feel that it is to
the interest of each county in the State
to be fully and completely represented
at the Southern Inter-States Exposition
to be held in this city during October
and November, 1891. The exhibits
sent to the Exposition in this city will
be preserved and used at Chicago in
1898, and in this way the counties
making exhibits get the advantage of
showing the attractions they have to
offer capitalists, manufacturers and
-hOme-seekers at the two great exposi-
tions I will be glad to see the Justices
of the Peace in each county of the State
make such appropriations as will in
sure a complete exhibit of the woods,
minerals, agricultural products, fruits,
vegetables and manufactured articles
of all kinds, and such other things as
will show to the world what a grand
State we live in. The Southern Inter
States Exposition will be visited by
many thousand people. and it certainly
should be a pride and a pleasure for
every North Carolinian to see the great
resources of his State properly shown
to the visitors.

POTATO BUGS.

Growers of the Irish potato in North
| Carolina and Virginia are more or less
troubled by two species of insects which
attack the vines. DOryphOrG decena-
Hneata, the Colorado beetle, is an old
and well-known pest; LyttG murIno,
the black Blister beetle, is less known,
but is becoming more plentiful each
year. The best remedy for both these
pests is Parish green or London purple.
The purple costs less than the green,
and is easier to handle, and therefore
preferable. The poison is best applied
wet, using one ounce to each six gallons
of water. A common waterproof will
do for a few rows of vines, but where
there is as much as one RI in a
garden it will pay to get the knapsack
sprayer, shown at figure 1 in Bulletin
rs of the N. @. Experiment Station.
This bulletin will be sent free to any
citizen of North Carolina, and to citi-
zens of other States on receipt of six
cents in stamps.
Instead of plain water it will be more
satisfactory to use the Bordeaux Mix
ture, prepared according to Formula
No. 3. given in the aforementioned
bulletin, using the Bordeaux Mixture
as if it were water. This compound
mixture will protect the vines from
blight as well as bugs. From four to
six applications will be needed accord
ing as the weather is wet or dry.
Rains wash the poison off the vines

ANNOUNCEMENT OF PRIZES FOR ESSAYS
ON THE IMPROVEMENTS OF COUN-
TRY ROADS AND CITY


The great Importance of improved
highways has attracted so much in
terest of late as to have caused the
offering of a series of prizes for in
formation bearing upon this subject.
The latest of these is by Col. Albert A.
Pope, of Boston, Mass, who has al
ready contributed much toward the
movement, in the past, and offers
five hundred $500 dollars in two
amounts of three hundred and two
hundred dollars respectively for the
first and second best essays on country
roads and city streets.
The essays should treat of the eco
nomic and social Importance of good
roads, the causes of the poor roads
existing in much of our country, the
best systems of road making, recon
struction and maintenance, including
cheaper methods suited to dirt roads
as well as methods for permanent
r~oadways, the best systems of street
Improvement, the system of taxation
that shouldb be employed in both coun-
try and city to distribute justly the
burden of road and street improvement
and the legislation that is required to
further these ends. The road laws of
the United States, as compared with
those of foreign countries, should be
discussed and relative faults and ex-
cellencies pointed out. In general the
essays should be as directly helpful as
possible toward. the Improvement of
our roads and streets, ifscatterd widely
among our people.
The competition is open to all.
The essays should not exceed %, 900
words, and must be in the hands of the
Secretary of the Association not later
than November 18th, 1892. It is de-
sired, but not required, that they should
be typewriter. The authors name
should not appear on the paper, nor
otherwise be prematurely disclosed, but
each essay should be signed by a
fictitious name, and the real name and
address enclosed in a sealed envelope
On which should be written the fc-
titious name. The papers sent will be
submitted to a board of three adjudi-
Gators, to be appointed by the presi-
dent of the American Economic AS
ISOLATION, with the advice and consent
of the Executive Committee, which
board shall be the sole judges of all
papers. The first prize will not be

And a Complete Retaliation of the Same.

And a Complete Retaliation of the Same.
In the summer of 1890 there appeared
in print an article signed by one Samuel
J. Crawford, in which it was stated
that L. L. Polk, President of the Ma
tional Farmers Alliance and Industrial
Union had, in the capacity of an
officer in the Confederate army, cap
tured some Union soldiers belonging
to a company of the One Hundred and
F~ifty-frst Pennsylvania Regiment, at
the battle of Gettysburg. The writer
further stated that the Union soldiers
were about to be re taken by their
comrades when l.. L. Polk ordered
them (the prisoners) to be shot down.
Other statements intended to injure
the character of L. L. Polk were also
made in the same article.
Soon after the article appeared a
proper denial was made; but recently
certain papers have reiterated the
statement as to dealing with the Union
soldiers. In order that such papers
may know that they are keeping in
circulation a base and malicious false
hood, and that they may have full op-
%portunity of retracting everything
they have published with regard to
this matter, the following complete
REPUTATION of the statement is sub
mitted:

ingtOn d. c.:
MY DEAR BRoTHER:-Please find
herewith a letter from Lieutenant Col.
George f. Mcfarland, who commanded
the One Hundred and Fifty first Penn
sylvania Volunteers during the first
day of the battle of Gettysburg, or un-
til 4 o'clock in the afternoon, when he
was wounded, losing his right leg. If
the Enclosed is not a full vindication of
yourself, I fail to understand it's Ian
guage.
would also state that I have had a
long interview with Capt. James T.
Long, the guide of the battlefield of
Gettysburg. He knows every foot of
ground there. and almost everything
that occurred during the battle, hav2
ing gathered the facts from participants
on various parts of the field. He says
| that if anything of the kind had oc-
