Bold Thieves

On Saturday night gang of Gratiot coun.

made raid, taxing every thing they could
get hold Of. From Al Wanzy they took a
barrel of pork and several bags of oats,
from Perry Banghart a quantity of corn,
from ArmOr Shannon several turkeys, from
Alex. Purves about dozen chickens. The
thefts were discovered early the next morn
ing, the light fall OF snow enabling Messrs.
Purves and Shannon to track the wagon to
the farm of John Fuller about twenty miles
away in GratiOt county. The men were
fully satisfied that they had the right par.
ties as the team in the barn was yet warm
and the family was busy picking chickens.
No arrests have yet been made. The gang
at Fuiler's house is said to be a bad one and
should be broken up.

taking part in them after you get
there. Farmers are too much alone.
We need to meet together to rub off
the rough corners and polish down into
symmetry. We need to exchange
views, and above all we need to learn
to think This is the shiOOoleth of
power, of ~infence. Brain work must
be behind hand-work-muscle, aided
by brain is constructive, muscle alone
is destructive. The advance of civil
zation means the elimination of I'M
skilled labor. Indeed labor unaided by
thought is savagery. The man who
does not know and who does not care
how farming should be carried on has
no right to pretend to be a farmer.
Sooner or later by the operation of IN
exorable laws. the farmer who does not
realize the Importance of knowing his
business must let go his hold upon the
earth.
The material upon which the Ali
ance works is individuals. It's object
is to endow them with self help-that
help which tie aches them to help them
selves. Thus individual attainment
becomes race po~tentiality.

LETTER FROM BEAUFORT.

Mr.. EDTTOR:-Dear brethren Of the
Alliance, you remember the old pro-
verb: knowledge is power" and you
must be Informed or you cannot sue.
coed. This, my brethren, is a serious
matter; it is a responsibility you can
not shirk. No one else can assume it
for you. Webster said: 1--WE must
educate or we must perish" And the
same holds good today. Yea there
never was a time in the history of this
country when we had such need to
study well the policies of the govern
ment and their effects upon the differ
ent classes of the country. Now, my
brothers, this is a reasonable thing for
us to do, simply educate; seek the
truth; think for yourself; shake Of
prejudice; be a patriot; take a hand IN
the government of the country; discus
measures, not men; cleave to principle,
not party, and let all of your acts as
citizens be well considered, manly, con
scientiOus and in the interest of your
wife and little ones. If you will do
this all is well, for the heavens never
looked down upon an intelligent. edu.
Gated people who lost their liberty. /
say to you again, attend your Sub
Alliances and educate each other. In
this way you can soon post yourselves,
then by discussion in your Sub-Alli-
ances you will learn to express your
thoughts correctly, and then you are
prepared to take a hand with credit to
yourselves and the Alliance in all mat
tiers pertaining to your interests. Thig
Is as 1t should be; it ie what the&ni-
ance was organized for, and it is for
you to force success, to perch upon
your banner by each member taking
hold and going to work at once witt
the Alliance. Thus educated and
equipped for the duties of citlzenshiD,
equal rights to all would be maintained
and the tree of liberty flourish forever
In this the home of the brave. win
you do this for yourselves No one
else can do it for you. Would that
