ALLIANCE PICNIC.
The New York Brethren Have a Nice
Time-They are Solid for
Reform.
HONEOYE FALLS, n. Y,

HONEOYE FALLS, n. Y,
July 16, 1891.
Mr.. EDITOR The Alliance pic mic at
Machias on July 18th was a love-feast
anda grand success, both az to numbers
and enthusiasm.
President Polk captured everybody
for the Alliance by his impassioned
eloquence All felt that his words
were the echo of his hearts best wish.
If the South can send such men into
every county of the North, sectional
lines and sectional animOsities will fade
away like an April snow before a sum
mer sun.
After dinner brother Ralph Beau
mont, encouraged by such an example
and enthusiasm, made a most stirring
speech which was heartily applauded.
Every one went home feeling that if
such speeches and such facts were pre-
sented to the people everywhere, it
would be but short time when the
people North, South, East and West
would be Joined solidIy together under
the Alliance banner and would march
on to certain victory.
D. f, Aliens smiling face was seen
IN the crowd, also c.. al. Maxson of the
Alliance Leader.
Ed Dibble, Of Lima, n. Y, a com
paratively new convert to Alliance
doctrines, spoke a few moments, on
State matters, and his remarks were
well received. Among the many Ali
ance workers I had the pleasure of
meeting that sturdy old reformer,
Farmer Dean" whose smiling face
seems to carry yencouragenenta and con-
fidence to every one he meets.
President Arnold, of the State ALI
ance, presided in dignified manner.
He is one of the most pleasant of men
to met AN ALLIANCEMAN.

LETTER FROM GRAHAM COUNTY.
ROBBINsONvILLE, n. c.,
July 7, 1891.

Mr. EDITORIALS you, probably,
have had nothing from this (Graham)
county concerning the workings Of the
Alliance, I will try, in a brief way, to
tell you how we are progressing in the
work. Most of our Sub-Alliances have
been, for sometime, asleep or indiffer
ent, and our friends, the enemy, :"
hope that they are dead, but we believe
that our members are beginning to
arouse themselves. J. S. Bell, the Dis
trict Lecturer, has visited our county,
and we believe has done much good.
He spoke at this place on the 29th day
of June to an intelligent audience, and
gave general satisfaction. He showed
that it was not the farmers or masses
of the people who ruled this govern
ment; but that the plutOcrats and
mOnOpOlists dictated as to what laws
shall be enacted. He also showed that
the Alliance could stand only by stick
ing together; that in union there IS.
strength" " We believe that the pur-
poses Of the Alliance are good and
hope that it will not launch out on any
reckless or uncommon sense scheme.
OF course we need to expect opposition
but we should not let the SarcaSmS or
burlesqUes of our enemies deter us
from what we cOnscientiOusly believe
to be our duty. Hoping the Alliance
success in what is right, | am
Yours fraternally,

 The PRosPEcroR don't seem to take kindly to the "Miles county" proposi- tion which slices off part of Cochise county, nor does the Graham County Bulletin take kindly to that same proposition which would slice off Gra- ham county. Where so much terri tory is lying around loose and a large population as that about Wilcox is compelled to travel upwards of hun- fred miles, over two different lines of railroad and a stage line to reach the county seat, 1t looks to outsiders AS though there were really no reason why the new county should not be created. How much jobbery, if any at all, of which the above named jour- nals complain, may be in it does not appear on the outside and may be very readily guarded against on the inside. A just division of the coun. ties named and construction of a new county would not increase the burden of taxation upon the old counties surely, and if the Wilcox people desire Co pay the present expenses of travel ing in the form of maintaining 8 county government of their own, that Is their affair.

At the same time, in conjunction with this trouble, I had very great nervous disturbance, affect ing my legs with cramps. so I could scarcely sleep.

A Plea for Water.

MIR. EDITOR: l have been very much impressed of late regarding the resources of our Territory and tn. need of our present Legislature to adopt some measure or measures thai will stimulate some one to invest small or large capital, as necessity de- mands, and open up those vast re- sources. The thousands of acres of uniuhabiied land, :raversed only by wild animals, are well adapted to the raising of small grains and all kinds of fruit that can be raised in any eli mate from the semi-tropical to tn, coldest of the temperate zone. With this land under cultivation prosperous cities and villages would be springing up around us, our mineral treasures would be more fully developed, and the whole Territory put on an air oi peace and plenty, and Arizona, the far-famed home. of the willy Apache and land of the cactus and rattle snake, would be admitted to the Union and marked on our starry banner as one of the most prosperous States of the Uniol. The red man, once the terror of our citizens, would be sub dued, lawless ness would be thing oi the past and our law-abiding citizens be blessed by s merciful providence with abundance and tranquility. Yet this can not be done unless our p-e-- ent Legislature takes the matter in hand.
 Our county would offer homes to thousands and bid fair to become one of the most prosperous in the Terri tory. Our stock interests would be enhanced, for stockmen could have abundant pasturage and could afford to raise & better class of stock The stock interest is today about &: par, for, take from the present premium un beef the vast numbers of cattle that perished in the year go, and we arrive with about the same figures We started with. Let the present Legislature, then, make giant stride toward this end, and increase our water supply, or make a gigantic step in that direction. Let them adopt the sentiments of the EPITAPH and offer a bounty of twenty | or thirty thousand dollars for an arte. sian well, or, better, let the digging oi such we'll to the lowest responsible bidder. and have il sunk to A depth that would make d thorough test. The false economy of the fifteenth Legislative Assembly in recommend ing an spportionment of a sum not to exceed three thousand dollars in each county, seems 10 all candid think, | CTS a trivial sum and one not adequate to hardly pay the contingent expenses

Co u lssy Division.

A letter received to-day from Phe- nix conveys the gratifying inferma- lion that not a member from Cochise is in favor of county division and the joint councilman from the Southern District is friend to our county in every way that will tend to its ad- yancement as geographically outlined at the present. The. gentleman fur nishing the information n also says that the bill will die in the Council, and that when reported it will have an amendment to it taking from Pima the Nogales country north to the 32d parallel. Even with this concession to Cochise it is not expected that the bill will make a showing worth men, tioning.
 The Tucson Star. in speaking of the division of Cochise, takes kindly to it in the following way:
 A bill has been introduced into the Legislature to create the county of Miles. It will be taken from Cochise and Graham, with Wilcox as the county seat. There appears to be strong opposition to the bill, princi- pally from Cochise. It ought not to be difficult to determine the qu6 stion. If the people who would be included in the new county can govern them selves at no greater expense 10 the axpayers than is now imposed upon them with the additional advantage of convenience, then they should be granted their request. If it will cost them more to maintain the new coun- ty than under present conditions, then it is questionable unless the conven. fence to & new county seat would compensate for the addit onal ex- pense.
 The Star does not consider the Co., chise county Of the future and says nothing regarding the proposed loss of a few thousand square miles of Pima county.
