its production. He also says Hat having
had thirty years experience in it's cult
vation, and in the practical use of it, he
cdn give all necessary information rela-
tive to its culture as well as to les man
ufacture. 1t is his desire that the corn
be raised in this section, and if it is done
he obligates TO take from so 6pF10Q tons.
He is satisfied from his experience
of thirty years in Illinois in raising and
manufacturing broona corn, that it can
be made success here. Some of our

had no school or rules either.

Resolutions Passed at the ThomasviIle
MeetingWiH support No Party That
Will not Recognize Their Demands.
THE News clips the following resolu-
tons from the last issue of the Southern
Alliance Farmer:
AT the meeting of the Second Con
gressional District, at Thomasville, on
the Dist, the following resolutions were
passed.
Whereas, The subsidized press and
bosses Of modern democracy have, and
fare claiming wseean accomplish reform
on line and in harmony with our de-
mands through the Democratic party, and
Whereas, Our national Congress, now
in session, is largely Democratic, giving
them power to introduce and pass legis-
latiOn on line with said demands, and
Whereas, Their policies so far seem
to indicate mere meaningless declara-
tons, and as the past, unfaithful prom
ises on measures of finance, and
Whereas, We believe legal tender
currency on pravity with gold and silver
issued by the government, through some
channel direct to the people to be the on
| ly successful solution of our present cor
rupt financial system, Therefore be it.,
Resolved, By we, the members com
posing this, the District Alliance of the
| GooonI
First, That we renew uncompromis-
ing allegiance to the Ocafa demands. and
hereby put our representatives in the AL
lance and Congress on notice that we
will not be led off from the main feature
in our sub-treasury plan, the government
issue of money direct to the people sui
ficent to handle our products, under cov-
er of state banks nor national banks. nor
loan on real estate.
Resolved second, That we see the
robber hand of Wall street in such com
promise, that the same is only intended
to side -track our main reform issue: that
the control of the currency may be left
in the hand of corporated capital and
shylocks to be contracted or inflated as
best suited to satisfy their avarice and
greed to rob and Cypress.
Resolved third, That we believe the
influence of Wall street money to be
still shaping the policies and controlling
the actions of our representatives suf-
ficient to legislate in the interest of pluA
tocracy; we further determine, and
Resolved, That unless our reDresen-
tatives in Congress now in session. de-
clare themselves in favor of our demands
as above stated, between this and the as
semb ing of the labor organizations at
st. Louis on the 22nd of February. we
will sever our allegiance to party ties.
and in future will only vote with such
party as will subscribe to the reforms

Times Ahead

The Meeting in Dawson Last July, and the
One in Cuthbert This Month--LiveIy
Times Ahead.
In Sundays Atlanta Constitution q
writer signing himself ~, o. writes in
terestingly of the approaching campaign
in this Congressional district. He says:
Cuthbert is to have two interesting meet
ings this month On the 10th the State
Agricultural Society will meet at the
county seat of Randolph county, and on
the 25th there viii be gathering there
OF representatives of the county alliances
of the several counties of the second dis
tlict The object of this gathering is to
determine upon line of action for the
alliance of the district There is some
interesting history behind this meeting.
Last summer meeting was called for
Dawson, it was July, | believe, and ut
that meeting committee was appointed
to report plan for the county alliances
to act together. The committee was in
stlucted so name a man, and a resolution
declaring it to be to their interest to have
one of their own number elected to con-
gress was adopted. The committee was
instructed to report at a meeting to be
held in Thomasville in January. At the
brownsville meeting no definite action
was taken as to the nominee, but the de-
cision that they should not 90 outside of
their own order was rescnded, and i'm
that shape the matter comes over to the
Cuthbert meeting on the 25th.
This is the new district-that is. it is
the only one of eleven that has nos Row
a con ressman wit! in its borders, For
that reason the fight down there is of e.
pecial interest to the entire state. Candf-
dates are plentiful. The action of the
Dawson meeting, declaring in favor Of
an allianceman, brought out several
members of the order, They are Mr..
Rushin, Mr. Massey, and Mr.. Alexander.
OF Thomas county; Mr.. Jackson. of Deca-
tur county; DR.. Ralncs, of Quitman. and
Dr.. Hand, of Baker OF the outside
ot-alllance candidates, or possibi tiles
discussed were Judge jim Query. of the
Pataula circuit; Colonel Bob Mitchell.
president of the late senate, and Major
Wooten, of Dougherty.
A south Georgia politician sizes up the
situation this way: IF the Cuthbert
meeting selects some strong non-alli-
anceman and the alliance support goes to
him, that will settle the ques ton of oon-
gresham from the second. 1t is harG to
tell what that meeting will do. To an
it looks as if Judge Query has
probably create" strength than the
others mentioned, though both Major
Wooten and Colonel Mitchell wo Id 90
into convention with folowings almost,
ii not quite, as strong OF the alliance
men Dr. Hand, of Baker, and Jackson. Of
Decatur, are probably the strongest,
though this is pretty much guess work.
The people of the second will watch that
Cuthbelt meeting with great interest.
