Correspondence of the Gazette.
NEW BIRMINGHAM, TEX. April 9.-Mat-
tiers OF unusual interest have taken place in
this city in the last three days of more than
local interest.
The annual meeting Of the stockholders
Of the New Birmingham iron and land com
pany took place on yesterday, and new
blood and large amount of money has
been injected into the great industry of this
place.
The English syndicate that developed
Niddleshoro, KY. have taken q very large
interest in the company, and to develop the
immense resources Of their extensive prop
erty they present the proposition to any re-
sponSible party-to donate g site TO manu-
facture iron into commercial articles.
and to loan such parties at least
one-half OF the money necessary
for the construction of plants to cost not
less than $50, 900, and not to exceed $780,
coo each, on long time and al low rate Of
interest. These industries must be bona
tde and handled by men OF experience,
and the mandatory to be legitimate.
They may put up rolling mills, steel works.
stove plate or other foundries, wood
patent fire brick or tile works.
The action Of this company seems
TO put new life in every avenue about this
section, and the feeling is better than it
has been for ten years-in fact, as now
organized II is composed of the largest
aggregated capital operating in the state
with the disposition TO increase it TO any
extent necessary TO the full development of

Special to the Gazette.
Waco, TEX, April 10-The first annual
meeting of the State Liberal association
met today J. D. Shaw of Waco, editor of
the Independent Pulpit, presided. One
hundred delegates from twenty-five cities
attended. The president said that human
ity had been too long dominated by churches
and ridden by priests. 1t was the associa-
tion's object to unshackle the human mind
and allow it to face its problems unclouded
by superstitions, and undaunted by IN
churchly threat of ridiculous hell fire.
The secretary'S report shows rapid
growth. Five powerful societies had been
organized in the cities Of Texas. Five lee
turers had been kept constantly in the
field. Five preachers had been met in pub
lie debate and defeated. Seventeen thou
sand, three hundred and fifty free thinking
books and pamphlets had been distributed.
Tonight the convention was addressed
by Judge Richards of Austin, Mr.. Revier
Of Vernon, and Rev. Mr.. Schultz of Fort
Worth. The delegates were all very en-

FfRMERS 10 COuBINE.
They VIII Employ Purchasing Agent and
DO Away with Niiddiemen.

CHICAGO. Dec. A dispatch from Eau
Claire. Wis. says: At the Farmers Alliance
convention n resolution was adopted favor
ing the organization of business depart
ment at the head Of which will be PLACED an
agent who viii represent all the members Of
the Alliance in Wisconsin.
President Butt. of the State Alliance said
''Ile farmers of this State who belong TO the
Alliance when this system is in working order
will have an agent who will buy and sell for
them. For Instance. as 1t is now the individual
farmer buys his reaper from some local
agent. who puts on 100 per cent. profit.
The State Alliance purchasing agent will re-
ceiye the orders Of the farmers for reapers
and receive the cash with the orders. The
agent will bay the reapeTs direct from the
manufacturers and save to the farmers the
middleman's profit. The transactions viii
be on a strictly cash basis. This Is only one
illustration.
Another feature of the company is opera
i've stores. As things are now farmers are
gGying their supplies here and there, where
ever they can, usually from middlemen. who
of course must have a profit. Our Alliance
agent will do all the purchasing Of this kind
directly from large wholesalers, and you can
see how the advantage thus gained Will
operate for the benefit of the farmer.
Again. the Alliance agent will handle our
wheat and send it direct to Europe. The
farmers will sell their wheat through the
agent and he will control the supplies and
put them direct on the best market 10 the
profit and advantage Of the farmer"
