BRO. HOOVER IN YADKIN COUNTY
PANTHER CREEK- n. c.

IANIHER CREEK, N. y,
Nh. EDITOR:-On the goth Of April I
met Rev. J. T. B. Hoover at his first
appointment in Yadkin county and
found a good number collected to hear
him. From there he went to East
Bend and spoke hat night, the goth,
TO a large congregation for one and a
half hours, after which he held a
secret meeting and re organized the
lodge, which, | think, will result in
two lodges.
Next day we went to Exon Lodge.
Owing to the advertisements not
reaching there in time, it was not gen
orally knO WI, yet we had a good meet
ing and good was accomplished.
From thence we came to West Bend
Alliance, which is the home of the
writer, where he had a largo congrega
tion of ladies AMI gentlemen to talk to.
This was the 2Sth. At night we went
to Auntersville. where we found a good
ly number collected to hear the doc,
trine5 of the Alliance set forth by our
esteemed and able speaker.
Next day we vent to Holden Ali.
ance. The weather was threatening in
the morning, preventing the ladies
from turning out as they would have
done, Notwithstanding there was a re
spectacle congregation.
Next day, the 3Oth, we went to Zion
Alliance where Bro. Hoover accom-
plished a great deal of good. Thence
to Croas Roads Church at night where
gathered a large number of ladies and
gentlemen to hear Bro. Hoover, who
gave him their undivided attention for
nearly two hours.
We believe there was a good many
converts at that meeting. There is no
Alliance at this point yet, but the PEG
pie seem to be DESTROYS of hearing the
doctrines Of the Alliance discussed.
In conclusion will say that Bro.
Hoover has been a blessing to the ALI
ance in Yadkin county.

it is safe to say he was highly appre-
ciated by all. You may rest assured
that the work committed to him is be-
ing well and faithfully performed.
Would that We had plenty Of work
r equal to him in the field to present
the cause of reform to the people
throughout this whole country, for by
educating the people we can save the
nation and preserve to future genera
tiOns u republican institutions.

/ was also present at his State line
meeting at Gibson Station. By a mis-
understanding on the part of the people
of that community, there was a small
audience. However, the worthy brother
addressed the assembly IN the reform
issues, devoting an hour to his hearers
with good results, for at the close of
his lecture enough Of the members Of
State Line Alliance came together to
be re instated as a Sub-Alliance, and

LETTER FROM DAKOTA.
ALEXANDRIA, S. D.

ALEXANDRIA, S. D.
Mr.. EDITOR:-I was very much in
terested in a letter from John May,
Franklinton, N. O., published in the
Dakota RuTaIiSt of April 18th. Mr..
May states the truth very plainly, mis-
illustrations are forcible and his logic
invincible. What we need is more
such letters interchanged between the
two sections of our country, North and
South. The old wall of prejudice has
crumbled, the Alliance has undermined
it, and the Peoples party will level it
to the ground, and the parties that
have been keeping it III such good re-
pain during the last 25 years will be
buried beneath it's ruins. The bread
winners of this country are going to
unite in spite of all the powers of
darkness"
If we should act upon the advice Of
the old bosses, we could agree upon our
demands in our Alliance and Knights
of Labor assembleys and then go to the
polls and vote right against each other
and thus capture everything-just as
Jonah captured the whale.
Unite on demands and divide on
tickets, reminds n of the reply a fond
mother gave her daughter when she
asked permission to learn to swim.
"Oh yes, my darling daughter, hang
your clothes on a hickory limb, but
don't go near the water"
Send your letters from Dixie" to
the North, and your rebel brigadiers''
to make speeches for us, and with this
kind of reciprocity" established be-
tween North and South, we will unite
our demands, ballots, hearts and
hands beneath the banners of Justice
and equity.
F~raternally yours,
WIN A. GREENE,
President Beulah Alliance.

LETTER FROM
HARRISBURG, n. G..

HARRISBURG, n. &.
Mr.. EDITOR: -Isee so much published
in other papers about the Alliance and
its leaders, that I can't help but send
up a few lines.
The editor of the Mecklenburg Times
has been kicking high about Skinner,
Butler and Polk since they were in
Charlotte. In his issue of March 25th.
he has wasted about one page of his
and misstatements, and as he calls
them made by Col. Harry Skinner,
when he was in Charlotte, discussing
the Sub Treasury plan.
The editor was in the court house
taking notes while Skinner was speak
ing. Why did he not correct him
them lie was welcome to do so, be-
cause at The beginning of his speech he
(Sklnner) said If any man wanted to
ask him any questions, they could do
so, and he would answer if he could.
So they can't say he will not answer
when a question is put to him. The
majority Of the people that listened to
SINNERS speech in Charlotte were
farmers, and the most of them are
solid Alliancemen and stand square on
the demands.
The Times talks about what the
Democratic party can do for the farm
ers, but not a word about what it will
do for us. We have always voted the
Democratic ticket and haven't received
any benefit from it, so hereafter we
will vote for our principles and not the
party.
The editor of the Times claims that
the farmers can produce twice as much
now with the same labor as they could
before the war. Any man with com
mon n knows that is not true. We
know that the farmers are worse off
now than they were five years ago,
and are getting worse every year.
We care not how many figures the
Times has to hand to refute allegation
or what the census show that the value
of farm land increase per acre from
1850.
We want the Times man to under
stand that there is just as good men in
the Alliance as he is or any other non
AIlianceman, and also that the best
farmers in M~ecklenburg belong to 1T,
and they have their shoulders to the
wheel, pushing all they can to help
us on.
