l Go not know that [ can mere ap
propriately bring this address to
close, than by quoting an extract from
some remarks of my own in another
place, and with your permission will
do so. When the Force Bill was under
discussion in the Senate, during such
parliamentary struggle as this country
had never known, in making my con-
tributiOn among other things, l said:
ut has been observed that Republics
are never destroyed by external powers
or influence, by pressure from without,
but by internal dissensions, the ener-
waiting effects Of wealth and luxurious
indulgcnces, corruption, and the loss
of self-reliance and vigilance of the peo-
pie. And this has been true in the past,
is true now, and will be true for all time.
"When we reach the point in our
history when the people can not elect
their representative under local laws of
their own, the day Of the decadence OF
popular government will have set in,
and the destruction Of popular liberty
as we understand it under our form Of
government will have begun. The
dangers to our free institutions do not
lie in the uEtitness or unwillingness of
the people tor self-government. 1t
does not lie in the encroachments Of
the executive and judicial departments
OF the government, nor in the exercise
of undue or improper powers by the
States, but in the aggressive usurpa-
ton and absorption Of power by Con-
gress in assuming to itself prerogatives
and rights which under the constitu-
ton belong to other departments, to
the States, and to the people, We are
replacing, by rapid gradations, year by
year and session by session, constitu-
tional republic Of limited powers, with
well-defined coordinate departments,
each intended to move in its own
sphere by parliamentary government
where lninorities can be crushed, the
States paralyzed, courts converted into
political machines, and executive au-
thority shorn Of its legitimate consti-
tutional power"

THE WEDGEFIELD ALLIANCE.
Rather Than Blindly Follow the Behests of
Coat-Tai1 Politicians, the Organiza-
tion Unanimously Resolves to
Disband.
Especial to The State.

WEDGEFIELD, S. c., July 27.-At
the regular meeting of the Wedgefield
sub-Alliance Saturday afternoon it was
un animously resolved to disband and
return the charter.
Their reasons for taking this step are
not secret, and prominent member of
the Alliance said:
"The entry of the Alliance into poll
tics having seemingly destroyed all in
terest in the prime objects Of the organ
ization, and the recent actions of the
county and State Alliances having
shown that all who will not follow the
behests of coat-tail politicians and swal--
low the visionary sub-treasury bill in
toto are to be held as no longer longer
loyal ANianeenaa or, worthy of con-
sideration in the councils Of the order,
the Wedgefeld sub-Alliance is much
displeased at this prostitution of the
organization, which is still worthy of
great veneration in its true conception,
and has decided that rather than be
compelled to give up their manhood
and the inalienabie right to think and
vote as the members choose, they will
leave the organization to the fate which
is yawning to receive it, if its present
policy and leaders are followed"
There was no opposition whatever to
this course. This Alliance never has
made mans political faith the critic
rion by which his loyalty was to be
Judged and to have such a criterion
thrust upon = is more than our farmers
will stand.
AGAINST THE sUB-TREAsURY.
At a recent meeting of the Ridge
Spring Alliance, No. $40, it was unani-
mously resolved that the sub-treasury
scheme is obnoxious and dangerous to
the Alliance. P. y. ZIMMERMAN,

Not a Miracle. Now.

Until recently Consumption was
considered incurable, but now people
are beginning to realize that the dis
ease is not incurable. The cure of Con-
sumption is not a miracle, now. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will
cure it, if taken in time and given a
fair trial. This world-renowned rem
edy will not make new lungs, but it
will restore diseased ones healthy
state when other meaus have failed.
Thousands gratefully testify to this.
1t is the most potent tonic, or strength
restorer, Alternative, or blood-cleanser,
and nutritive, or flesh-builder, known
to medical science. For Weak Lungs,
Splitting of Blood, "Liver Complaint"
and Dyspepsia, or indigestion, it is an
uneoualed remedy.

THE BIG ALLIANCE SCHEME.
Col. Peek Goes to New York to Perfect Ar
rangements for the Deal.
Special to Augusta Chronicle

Especial to Augusta Chronicle
ATLANTA, GA, July 2S-Col. Peek,
of the Alliance Exchange, goes to New
York tomorrow to perfect arrange
ments for the transfer of the business
of the Exchange to the Alliance COM
pany.
II seems the Alliance storekeepers
are, under the new arrangement, to
take stock in the new company in re-
turn for their store property, and are to
receive percentage of the gross earn
ings for their work.
Oswald Wilson is ct the head of the
scheme. The opponents of the propo-
sition to transfer the business claim il
means simply the farming out to New
Workers of the trade of the farmers.
This is denied, but such secrecy pre-
walls that it is impossible to get at the
exact arrangement.

There is Fun Ahead.
[ From the Edgefeld Monitor.l

FROM the f.QSelelQ MOnlloT.J
Next year will be a whopper in poll
tics, and if age had not already dealt
harshly with US we would be inclined
to skip few months. We are anxious
for the fray-anxious for it to be done
with. The possibilities of the coming
campaign are great 1t has been hinted
in certain quarters that there will be a
triangular fight by the sub-treasuryites,
the Tillmanites and the Anti-Tillman--
ties. Anyhow, there is lots of fun and
fury ahead and we can scarcely wait
for it. There will be many men on every
corner and the fence will be literally
packed. Governor Tillman'' opposition
to the sub-treasury will weaken his
Alliance support, but it is foolish to
predict that be will go dead; be will
prove the liveliest corpse in the next
campaign, and we apprehend that
Messrs Talbert, Stokes & Co., will again
embrace the Governor or. that IS, sit
very near him. son with the dance"

The Chinese Of this city and New York,
it is said, will hereafter bury their dead
in Cypress Hills cemetery instead of in
the cemetery of the Evergreens, as has
been their custom. This action is said
to be taken because the Evergreens
cemetery officials have increased the
price of graves from ten to twenty dol
lars each. They have purchased an acre
of ground in Cypress Hill cemetery for
$1,000 and will have cheaper rates in the
future. The Chinese allege that twenty
dollars is too much TO pay for grave
which is tenanted for only five or six
years, as every Chinaman makes con-
tract with the company that employs
him under which the company agrees to
send his body back to China. This
transmigration Of bodies takes place once
every five years, the skeletons being
packed in tin cases when the proper time
comes. The last shipment was made
only short time ago. The skeletons
then came from some of the old graves
in the cemetery of the Evergreens.-

The death of James Russell Lowell
at his home in Cambridge last W ed
nesday removes one of the great
literary lights from the world of
letters. Born in 1919 in Cambridge
he early graduated from Harvard
university and after short period
spent in the practice of law at
Boston made literature his profess
sion. In 1854 he was made profess
or of modern language at Harvard,
in 1857 editor of the Atlantic Month
ly and in 1868 editor of the North
American Review In 1877 he was
appointed minister to spain and in
1880 was transferred to the court of
st. James. Through all the writings
of Lowell there flows an intense
current of patriotism and whether
professor, poet or diplomat he was
at all times an American.

English instead of in Latin. The con-
tinuance of the ancient custom caused
much amusement for those present, for
when President Eliot closed his Latin
remarks by inviting the senior class TO
mount the platform to be presented with
their degrees, not man stirred
When the invitation was repeated,
Chief Marshal Cumnock started up the
platform steps, but pull from behind,
given by Il less sanguine classmate, was
too much for him, and he turned to go
down again a broad motion of the
hand from President Eliot Given in Eng
lish) finally induced him TO continue,
and thus the class followed to receive
their degrees. Boston Saturday Gazette.

A most interesting census bulletin
is that which shows that the United
States has only 97,265 paupers, one
to each 643 inhabitants, while Great
Britain, the home of free trade, has
900, l55 paupers, or one TO every 3S
inhabitants. This furnishes a strik-
ing object lesson of the effects of free
trade and protection as national poll.
cies. 1t would be still more striking
on the side of protection if the fact
were shown, as it undoubtedly exists,
that a very considerable percentage
of our paupers came from European
countries previous to the incoming
of the present administration, which
has, by its vigilence and the aid OF a
republican congress which amended
our immigration laws, succeeded in
reducing the landing of pauper
immigrations upon our shores to
minimum.
