BRO. TEAGUE AND HIS WORK.
BALDWIN, n. G

BALDWIN, N. @.
Mr.. EDITOR BRO W. W. league has
just finished a lecturing tour in our
mountain country, in which he has
done some very efficient work in Ashe
for the Alliance. Bro. league made
about nine rOusing speeches in our
county, speaking twice day from two
to three hours at time. He is a fine
reasOner, is we'll informed, is an un-
compromising Allianceman, and am
quite sure that the untiring effort
which he made in promulgating the
grand principles of the Alliance in
Ashe county will be a prolific source of
much good to the Order in strengthen
ing the faith of all the members. in re
claiming the back sliders and in stirring
up the luke warm and in causing men
to go to thinking and reading more,
and that is what we need. l think the
Alliance can be recruited without any
trouble in our county, If we can get
our people to reading the Alliance
literature. ] mean in those communi-
ties where they say the Alliance is
dead, for / find it is not dead but is
only sleeping, and only needs revlvlng
a little and putting to work. And we
have a good number of Sub-Alllances
and quite a number Of members in
good standing and hard at work for
the Order in Ashe, although our oppo-
sition is strong and our enemies are
hard at work, and occasionally they
capture weak kneed brother and tell
him he is being duped, and he is fool
enough to think they are telling him
the truth. But I am glad to be able to
say that many of our members are
reading and thinking for themselves
aud expect TO stay in the fight.
Yours respectfully,
T. J. HOUCK.

HOW TO GET 1T.

BETHEL, Pitt Co., N. G.
How to get relief is to labor for the
agricultural aud labOring classes in the
science of economical government, to
indorse the motto, in things essential,
unity and charity" to suppress Sec
tional and national prejudices, to stand
by our demands at all times and in all
places and especially at the ballot box.
We may preach reform and continue
to vote with the same old parties and
it will be like a sounding brass and
tinkling symbal. No man can serve
two masters A house divided against
itself cannot stand. Our motto should
be, vote for no man for any Office IN
less he will publicly declare himself in
favor of the Ocala platform, and will
pledge himself not to support any can
didate for office who is not in favor of
the same. He who is not for us is
against us; there is no halfway ground
We must be on one side of this great
question or the other, and l hope all
farmers and mechanics and all labor
ing men will march up this year in one
solid body and vote one time for our
own interests and for G d and home
and our native land, and for more
money and less whiskey.

cedlng Mr.. Cleveland's administration
Is fast that no one can successfully
deny. There are thousands of men
who voted the Democratic ticket that
elected Mr.. Cleveland, with the distinct
understanding that if the democracy
were sue eessful the internal revenue
laws were to be repealed. The ticket
was successful, owing to that prOvlsO.
Now let us see what was the result.
Did they repeal the internal revenue
laws? Not much they didn't. We'll,
what did they do2 They suddenly dis
covered that the very thing they were
condemning possessed rare virtues.
What were its virtues? One was that
1T was a great agency to centralized
trade. 1t removed the small tobacco
manufacturers and peddlers out of the
way of the large manufacturers with
out exertion on their part more than
informing Congress that it would not
be to their interest to have the revenue
tax removed. Another way that the
whiskey syndicates did not want Tom,
Dick and Harry to be allowed the
privilege of converting their waste
fruit into pure brandy, it would come
N contact with their stuff, and the
best way to prevent it was by c0ntinu
ing the internal revenue laws. Last
though not least, was that certain set
Ct fellows who had been railing on the
revenue officers and clubbing them
'red-legged grasshoppers manifested
;& desire to become red legged grass
hOppers" themselves and nose around
IN search of some luckless law-breaker
The promise the Democrats made to
the people to repeal the internal reve-
nue. laws and bring about other needed
reforms has had a powerful tendency
TO create among the people a distrust
In almost every body. The Democratic
party may promise the Alliance every
demand asked for, but the people have
10 assurance that the promises will
ever be complied with-and they will
judge the future by the past-conse-
QGently they will not support any
ticket the "bosses" put out, as they
have been doing.
There are some fears expressed that
some of the leaders will sell out the AL
il&nce. They may attempt it, but they
will find it a somewhat difficult matter
to deliver all the goods. The old
Democratic party must be regenerated
born again, with a new set of nurses
on board and christened the Peoples
party. Nothing short Of that is going
to satisfy some of our Rockingham
boys, and their name is legion.
Fraternally,

THE REFORM MOVEMENT.

HEXLENA, n. G.
Mr. EDITOR see so many things
in your paper that Is so ably written
and so thruthfully said, that cannot
see how the education of the people
can stop until the truths of our de
pressed condition are heard from top
to bottom, from center to circum
ference. But what | want to say is,
| believe the hand of God is in the
reform movement, and | believe He
will guide us as long as we hold up the
principles of the Alliance, AMI believe
as soon as selfish greed shall take the
place Of truth, equity and justice to
all. then | think God will withhold
from us, as He has in Russia national
sins; though they are brought on us by
a few wicked leaders, have to be suf-
fered nationally. But see no need of
this, for we have the experience of all
the ages, and if we do not improve
upon them, then it is our fault. l
cannot tell how it is all over the cOun-
try, but in this section we have men
who think that the best men in Amer
ica are the men In office or the ones
that have been in Office or the ones
they want in office who have never
been one iota of benefit to them, only
to pile tariff and unjust taxation and
make donations to unjust persons and
enterprises.
We have men who are too selfish to
read the truth or believe the truth :;
they rather believe a lie and be damned,
and the world with them, than to read
and advocate the truth. | want to
know what will become of them. We
have men who claim to be Christians,
gno think they are not responsible for
the many poor children who are being
over worked to get bread and suffering
for clothes, and they are not responsible
for it To such would like to say they
will find at the last day their talent
will be like the slothful servant who
hid his in napkin, I am no man for
Church and State, but [ have but little
confidence the man who claims to
be q ChrisU. N gentleman who can
cheek himself up to his neighbor and
say vote for the regular nominee of
our party, when he knows at the same
time that that nominee has never done
anything for good to the greatest num-
ber. The Bible says woe unto the
world because of offences, but woe
unto him by whom they come. And
| am glad that some of these old politi
cal office holders have to suffer In
eternity for the punishment inflicted
upon us as nation. j. Il. EVANS.

RAISE YOUR OWN SUPPLIES.

Mr.. EDITOR Whereas, our present
experience is showing exclusively that
it is dangerous in the extreme to rely
on the one crop system; therefore be it
ReSOlUed. That we will diversity our
crops and make our own corn, wheat
and forage, and thus make our tobacco
crop our money crop.
2. That we respectfully suggest to
our fellow farmers in the bright to
bacco belt the necessity Of following
our example.
8. That our State Alliance be re-
quested to set on foot a plan or plans
which will induce the farmers of the
whole State to keep their cribs and
granaries in their own yards instead of
Baltimore and Chicago.
4. That we will use our best endeav-
Ors to raise our own mules and horses,
and not have to depend on other Sec
tions for them.
5. That copy of these resolutions
be sent to THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER
and WebsteT's Weekly with a request

ELECT GOOD MEN.

In answer to how may the Alliance
end friCIlGs Cf r5sOTn hist receive the
recognition and enforcement of our
principles" " will say In my judgment is
for the productive class to secure men
to represent us in Office, from President
to constable, whose whole heart, mind
and strength will be given to our cause
Let us seek our officers, it Is time to
stop the officers seeking Office for the
fleece [ favor a full ticket from the
fact that a partial ticket would give
cause for the enemies Of reform to lie
tract and thereby capture many votes.
[ am opposed to pledging candidates.
(We have no use for hand cuffs, except
to be able to hold such as cannot be
brought to justice Otherwise.) 1t is
very evident, where we examine our ma
tional record, that there are no Repub
Ii ans or Democrats when our Repre-
sentatives are assembled in Congress,
but plutOcrats. When we consider our
grievances and look for the cause, we
find that both the great national parties
have been on the same road marching
together for more than 25 years Gong
march) and are destined to take up
camp together in the near future for
the purpose of building breastworks
and fOrtifying against the honest move
of the honest people, and they have the
means at tReir command to build such
Notifications, as we will only be able
to overcome by a united altogether pull
and the aid of our Supreme Being.
Very truly, S w. WHITE.

FREE DELIVE RY.

Mr.. EDToR:-Recently, the press
throughout the country has occasion
ally referred to the desirability of hav-
ing a Free Delivery" of mail in the
rural districts, and the Postmaster
recommends it, and states that In small
cities where it has been tried, fnan-
cially, it has proven a success.
During this session of Congress bills
have been introduced, in view of the
fact that the efficiency in the Postofice
Department is growing less, to reduce
letter postage to a lone cent basis.
AS this is a sign of the increasing busi-
ness prosperity of our country we
heartily welcome it; but as the Treas
ury of the United States is not depend
igg on revenue received from that
source, then the question seems more
important how to increase the efficiency
of the service, and how to make the
charges less for performing such ser
vice. 1t would seem that as until now,
the Improvement In the service has all
been made to the exclusive benefit of
our urban population, tits getting more
than time that the farmer, the miner,
(the bone and sinew of the country,)
the real workers, the producers who
yearly add to their cOuntry's wealth,
should have some consideration, and
should not be obliged, as they were
century ago, to patiently trot to the
cross road postOffice. after their mail,
no matter what the weather is, the
state of their health, or the pressure of
work. If they want to hear from the
outside world, from the loved ones
away from home, a tramp to the post
Office is necessary. The correspondence

as bad or worse if it could have done
SO; and then upon the heels of this mil
hons OF the common people ask a re-
rress OF their wrongs, and even go so
as to point them out and show how
they can be remedied, and he scorps to
consider these wrongs either in Con
gress Or out of it, believing that party
success would be endangered by hear
ing these complaints as it would effect
the plutOcrats whom he delights to
serve, remember that this big states
man has his eye on the flesh pot at
Washington, and all he breaches and
all he says is to make things safe for
his return to that fat and luscious
office. Think once or twice and don't
be foolish, Mr.. Bowser.
When you go around the country
during campaign year and come across
one of these little stump rattlers saw
ing the air, putting and snorting; and
you find every idea in his pumpkin hull
is something he has gathere from these
big statesmen or their ready helpers,
the party press, and when you take
his measure, his height, his length, his
depth and breadth, you find him a
flexible little tool in the hands of the
plutOcrats, trying to instruct his fel
lows in gauzy sOphistry to be their own
undOing, to rivet the chains of slavery
on their own limbs, think of the siren
who sings the sweetest songs to lure
the mariner upon the breakers; think
of the pandering slave, who sins to
satiate the lust Of his master; think
once or twice and don't be foolish, Mr..
BOwser.
Come let us reason together. More
than a million of free born American
citizens have requested Congress to
consider certain propositions in their
behalf. They speak for five millions
more. Que big statesmen don't stoop
to consider them at all. Sixteen agents
of the associated banks came to Wash
ingtOn to put the exception clause on
the greenback. 1t was considered. 1t
was done. Five men applied to Con
gress in behalf of the Pacific railroad
grab of $50 millions of dollars. It was
considered, 1t was granted One man.
Ernest Seyd, came from London with
$5O1. 900 to get silver demOnetized 1t
was considered. 1t was granted A
few men had COncOcted to have the ma
tiOnal banking system established. It
was considered. 1t was done. Four
or five men want to borrow a 100 mil
lion for the Nicaragua Canal. Harrison
recommends Congress to consider it.
Look upon that scene; now cast a
lingering gaze upon this and tell me
what you think. The interest of seven
millions of common people ask Con
gress to consider several distinct prOpO
sitious and this Congr, IS turns a deaf
ear. Both parties turn deaf ear.
What do you think of that, in the face
cf thai r.ady " "uingnIsS 20 help OF
these various robberies? When one of
these human beings CONES home and
asks you to return him, ask him if he
has Joined in this conspiracy against
the Republic and the people, and think
