The people Of Benton connty want q man
for superinteudent who is Industrious, dill
gent in his duties, broad and liberal enough,
in his educationto understand the needs of
the public schools, man who can give his
entire time and attention to them. The re-
publican candidate, Mr.. T. H. Gragg, pos.
sesse these qualifications in an eminent de
gree. He is regular graduate Of Phiiomat'
College, and has been successful teacher IN
this county fur number of years, 1hs last
three wears he has been teaching i'll his own
district, one of the largest in the county.
It is an unmitivated falsehaod that he ever
refused to take part in teachers Institute
Mr.. Bryan's experience as teacher mas
been gained in one of the smallest districts IN
the county. In regar. T. Mr. Grages resi-.
dence we will only say that it will be IN
Corvallis, SO that no will be of as easy ac-
cess as can be desired. The American
people admire man who adheres to his
principles, and has positive opinions
whether religious, political or social. and
when guided by right moral sense. they
feel secure in putting such a man in places
of public trust. Such a man is the re-
publican candidate for school sperintendent,

WHEREAS, We, the Union County,

that the enactment of our national de-
mands into law would be an adequate
and true remedy for the present alarm

measures in Congress for the benefit of
agriculture; therefore be it
ResOlUed, That we do recognize and
heartily endorse the course of our Rep

to cooperate with him in his efforts to
secure such legislation as will be for
the betterment of the producers of
wealth

they will find the llveliest corpse they
ever undertook to handle. 1 had an
interview with an attorney sometime
ago and he says "look here, you ALI
ancemen don't treat us right" Iasked
him to please explain. "Well, he says,
take this county for instance; for illus
tratiOn, we'll say there are three hun
dred Alliance Democrats and one hun
dred who are not eligible to member
ship in the Alliance; you three hundred
go into caucus and leave us one hun
dred out and pick out our candidates,
and when you go into convention,
you nominate your men and we have
no showing" I asked him if we did
not live under a Republican form of
government. Of course he could only
say "yes." 1 asked him if that did
not say majority should rule9 You
know he was bound to answer yes.
Well" said, "your little minority
has been ruling to the detriment of this
big majority, and soon as they propose
to have something to do with the affairs
of the government, the devil is to pay
at once"
"Well, " he says, "all I have got to
say is, whenever the farmers are pros
porous everything else is prosperous,
and we won't talk politics any more. ="

RESOLUTIONS.

Mr. EDITOR: Hollands Alliance,
No. 1864, Wake county, in full meet
ing, the following preamble and reso
lutions were introduced by our worthy
Lecturer J. J. Penny, and unani-
mOusly adopted:
In view of the great trials, hard
ships and difficulties confronting our
worthy leader, L. L. Polk, our Ma
tional President, together with the
storms of invective, malicious misrep
resentation and vile denunciatiOn
heaped upon him and his co workers
by the enemies of reform, amid which
him and his trusted advisers have
.OOd calm and serene-unscathed, un-
ruff1ed and unmoved-the admiration
of all beholders; therefore
ReSOLUed, that we bid them God
speed, and while we unanimously
thank them for their noble work, we
again reiterate our firm and un
swering purpose to stand by them
with both feet upon the St. LOus plat
form until the last vestige of feudal-
ism shall be driven back to monarchial
Europe, whence it came.
2 That we will stand by them until
the freedom purchased by our sires
shall again purch upon our banners,
and the American citizen shall again
be free to sit down under his own vine
and f1gtree, and enjoy the results OF
his own labor.
3. That these resolutions be sent to
THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER with request
to publish, and the National EcOnO
mist be requested to copy.
Respectfully and fraternally,
GEO. L PENNY, Sec'y.
