was never so hopeful and encouraging
as now. The order throughout the
whole country is daily adding to It's
numbers, and IL Is 10 finer spirit and is
more thoroughly united than ever be-
fore But tho peculiar conditions con-
fronting us demand the utmost caution
lest we commit errors which might
prove fatal TO our cause. The action OF
our state alliances and Of the supreme
council in their forthcoming annual
meetings will be universally regarded
with earnest interest, aud the charac-
ter OF that action depends largely on
the wisdom OF the subordinate bodies.
The sub-allianccs are 10 select mem
bers as delegates to the county alliances,
which are TO choose delegates to the
state alliance, which Ia turn is to select
delegates TO the supreme council.
In view OF the great and important
work TO be done during the next ALI
ance year, and which must necessarily
be largely directed by the state bodies
and the supreme council, the brother
hood is admonished 10 exercise great
care in selecting men to whom must be
intrusted the responsibility OF guiding
our course as an order.
Let those who are to legislate for us
in the state alliances and in the SUI
preme council be not only our ablest
and wisest men. but let their loyalty TO
our cause be without taint or tarnish.

men on guard in this hour OF our great

II Is being industrlously published in
the party press that the alliance is rap
idly going OF peices and that the
peoples party Is not gaining ground.
Both statements are not true. The al
lance is rapidly spreading In all parts
Of the country and the new political
movement is taking in recruits every
where. This was TO be expected by all
persons who know anything about the
causes which brought these two great
organisations into existence. IL mas
been assumed by persons who wish it to
he true that a good crop would dissipate
the alliance, because, they assert,
shortness OF crops was It's father They
assert too, that with the death Of the
Of the alliance will come a cessation OF
all political excitement outside OF the
two great parties. This is short
sighted view, taken by persons who in
sist on shutting their eyes 10 what is
actually taking place bsfore them. The
farmers alliance was born long before
the short crop years of lsS7-S. Ii is
the child OF the grange-the first great
organization of farmers--a union Of men
and women TO oppose the encroach-
ments Of corporate power and TO correct
hOuse IN Legislation. Inc grange was
broad enough for its time, and 1t
wrought good work. Its footprints
are seen all along the years since It
came. The grange spread wonderfully
for time, then rapidly passed out of
view for time as political force.
About the time its dissolution be-
gan, the alliance was born. While 1t
was no more partisan than the grange,
its field of active political work was
wider. In no sense partisan, its men,
bers discussed in meeting every public
question--not as partisans, but as citi-

which the farmers movement grew was
the result OF legislation in the interest
of protected classes OF citizens, legisla-
tion discriminating in favor OF money
and against other kinds OF property.
The end OF the great war found the
southern states destitute OF money and
needing large amounts, The demand
there was fully equal to the surplus
left among the north occasioned BY a
cessation OF war requirements; but in
stead OF keeping the circulation at what
II was when the war closed, rs per cent OF
IL was Withdrawn and put into long
time bonds within four years after the
armies were disbanded, Whereas we
had 81, 900, 600, 000o government paper
currency out, July /, 1865, there was
only about 400, 1000, 900 on the Both day
Of June 1869. (See report OF secretary
OF the treasury, 1869 AS had been
foreseen and foretold by senator Sher-
man, Morton and others, great depre-
diation Of property followed the Excess
siye contraction OF the currency, and
debts had been increased accordingly.
Bondholders, bankers and stock brokers
amassed fortunes in few years, while
tho producing classes became corre-
spondingly poor. The same influences
still operate. We have not more than
one-third enough money to do the busi.
ness Of the people, and as a consequence
the same debt is now about three times
as large as II was eight years ago.
Rates OF interests to 10 per cent in
1867, amount to "a to 30 per cent now
because OF the depreciation OF property.

OF interest; now II pays only about %
cents worth.
1t is because OF these facts-not be-
cause OF the short crops that farmers
