No better evidence is desired that ths
Alliance is doing splendid work than is
shown in the fact that the entire partisan
press of the country is unitedly engaged
in a war to break it down. 1t is thor

The NGrth Carolina Alliance.

The meeting of the state Alliance just
ended was a most remarkable one.
Though the partisan press and their al
lies would have been glad to learn that
partisan politics had been discussed in
this meeting. yet we are pleased to tell
them that nothing of the kind did hap
pen, but that there was a unanimity of
feeling. a clasping of hands, a touching
Of elbGws without one single break. The
sub and county Alliance organizations
did their work well in sending such men
to this body to represent them.-Rural

The subtrensury or Something setter.

The Subtreasury or something Setter.
A great deal of advice is being given
now to farmers to hold their wheat. The
advice is good. The worlds wheat crop
is short. Wheat should bring one dollar
per bushel in South Dakota this year. 1t
will be worth that in the worlds market
yet to US. Will we receive that price for
it? No, not unless it is generally held
Owing to scarcity of money with which
to move our crops last year the price
dropped thirty cents per bushel. There
is a much larger crop to handle this year
and much less money to handleit. Under
the circumstances it is a cruelty to our
people to hold out what might be under
a just financial system. The large ma
jority Of our farmers are in Shylocks
grip. They will not wait.
The farmer will be compelled to sell
his wheat or lose his chattels. Specu-
latoTs know this and will bear the mar
ket. When their greed is satisfied up
will go the price to the consumer. Then
the .. P. press will repeat, I'VE told you
So" That is all the consolation the
farmer will receive. and it is all they
should so long as they vote blindly as
the party bosses dictate. The subtreas-
ury plan would enable the farmer to
borrow enough on his wheat to pay
pressing obligations and hold his wheat
until he could get the worlds price for
it. Now won't the opposition please
give us their plan. It is useless to ad-
wise farmers to hold it under the circum-
stances. We demand the subtreasury
or something better. Dakota Ruralist.

A Perfect Baking Powder.

The constantly growing demand for DR.. Prices
Cream Baking Powder, the standard cream tartar powder
for forty years, is due to two causes.
~FIRST-The extreme care exercised by the manu-
facturers to make it perfectly pure, uniform in quality, and
of highest raising power.
SECOND-The recent Investigations exposing the
fact that certain other brands of baking powder contain
ammonia and still others that were found to contain alum.
These unscrupu1ous manufacturers are being found out,
and the consumers are giving them a wide birth.
Nothing is left to chance in the manufacture of Dr..
Prices Cream Baking Powder. Chemists are employed to
test every ingredient as to purity and strength. Hence;
it's marvellous purity and uniformity. Each can is like
every other. 1t never. dissapoints. BEST is AWAY

ported BY all authorities as free from Ammonia,

An Important Alliance Issue,

In several Of the states the school text
book question has become of paramount
interest, made so by the exorbitant prices
which parents have been obliged to pay
for the books necessary to give their chill
dren the education which parental care
and affection and the demands of good
citizenship alike deem essential as a prep
aration for life's duties. The common
schools are the farmers college. In them
so per cent. of all the children in the
country receive their educational prep
aration for life's duties. 1t is therefore
our duty to make them the best that is
possible and to see that the burdens of
attendance, through exorbitant prices of
text books used, be not made so great
that the children of even the poorest
shall be obliged to remain out of school
"Who shall control these schools:" is
today a question that we must meet.
Our answer is. THE friends who have
fostered them, who have built them up
and thoroughly believe in them" These
are the people who should say who shall
teach them, what shall be taught in
them and what books shall be used in the
instruction given. Willy politicians and
over Jealous %sectarians are today in too
many localities seeking to gain control
of the schools by means of laws which
shall give them control Of the teachers,
of the things to be taught, and Of the in
strumentalities of instruction. We should
carefully guard against all these schemes
that take this control from us. We
should maintain the right to build our
own school houses, employ our Owl
teachers and select our own text books.
With respect to the text book ques-
ton, a number of plans have been tried
for reducing cost in different states.
After a careful study of the situation, !
believe that an open market, with free
text books by a vote Of the district, or
contracts between the districts and pub,
fishers, the district selling to the pupil
at cost, with authority for adopting and
contracting for school books not going
above the county as a unit believe
this, | say, to be the most satisfactory
solution of the question, as one which
within my OWL experience furnishes
books at 80 per cent. saving to the con-
sumner, and at the same time retains the
choice Of text books in the hands Of
school officers in close contact with
school interests, and in closest harmony
with the parents. In buying direct and
in bulk the Alliance principle Of CO
operation is most advantageously ell
ployed, and the cost Of furnishing Of the
latest and most approved character for
one child for a full common school
course of eight years will average less
than one dol!al~Eer year.
Free text books will still further re,
dnce this expense. Massachusetts
Maine and Vermont are examples of the
successful operation of a free text book
law. Iowa buys books by district or
county and sells at cost. The public
schools are guarded by holding all their
interests near the people, who have the
same right to direct the kind Of instruc
ton that they have to say who shall in

years ago, in harvest time, young
man came in my store and said he

forenoon, and was 50 bad with diar-
rhGa and collie pains, that he would
have to lay off unless he could get re-
lief. [ took bottle of your diarrhea
remedy from the shelf; gave him a
dose sold him the bottle, and told
him | would give him the money back
if IL did no good. He came in next
morning and said the single dose did
its work so well, that he not only kept
up his place binding during the after
noon, but had worked all night; and
had the price of the dose l gave him
been three dollars, iG would have
been cheap. will further say, keep
on with your good work. You cannot
recommend your medicine too highly.
