Gather by Thousands at the
Holiness Meetings.
ABLE SHEPHERDS. WITH GOSPEL FOOD
Feed the Hungry Sheep Of the Christian
Fold.

Yesterday was great day at the
Holiness campmeetng.
The biggest crowds since the
meetings began went out, and at an
early hour you couldn't get vehicle
for love, money or kinship. Many
people ordered buggies, carriages
and wagons Saturday night, and
those who could'tget a rig went out
on the Cotton Belt. These latter
were not disappointed, for the three
miles ride to the grounds was free
from dust and rapidly made.
Some people estimated the num-
bea of people present at 10000,
others at 5000 The latter was
probably a correct guess.
The big tabernacle holds 5000
comfortably. 1t was filled to
suffocation and still the crowd
swarmed about on the grounds.
There were many interesting
sights and scenes at the tented city
yesterday and last night, some anus
ing, some pathetic and many were
extremely edifying. A good many
people carried luncheon out; many
among the campers had LAID in a
supply big enough to feed a small
army Of hungry tramps a week.
There was open hospitality and cor
diality, and the spirit of good fell
lowship and Kindness was univer
sal.
The camp meeting is being held
by people of the Christian denomi-
nation, which has large followin g
in this vicinity.
Or. Cundif, one of the leading
lights among the Christians, man
of extraordinary spiritual zeal and
real oratorical ability, preached yes.
terday and expounded the gospel
from the point of view of his faith.
1t is said that,,D Cundif has com
mitted to memory over 5000 scrip
tural passages i'll support of the
Christian faith. Considering the
big congregation and the inevitable
attending commotion of such large
number Of people, the most respect
full and marked attention was &C,
corded the preacher during his en-
tire discourse.
There were great outbursts of un.
comfortable emotion now and then,
and at the close of the services a
resounding "Halleluiah" was given
by the sanctiiied.
The afternoon and night services
were of unusual interest. Many
found grace and sent up their
praises of the blood of Christ,
which had cleansed them from sin
and made them glad in the hope of
the world to come.
At the night services, DR.. Nor.
rison, who is looked upon as the
leader of this sect. preached an
interesting sermon, elucid Ating the
Christian doctrine so plainly that
ga wayfaring man, though fool,
might not err therein"
AT the close Of his sermon great
many seekers for the ''second
blessing" came up and most of them
were satisfied that they had found it.
With the exception of the dust
there was nothing unpleasant con
nected with any of the meetings,
which will end next Thursday
night.

TAKE NOTICE.

The brethren will please bear in mind
that in my official capacity as State
Business Agent, I am acting directly
under the instruction of the State
Executive Committee. Their instruc-
tions are that l shall "fll orders only
when cash to the full amount of the
bill accompanies each order, except in
cases of County and Sub-Business
Agents who have filed in my Office a
justified legal bond for double the
amount expected to be due at any one
time, in which latter case thirty days
from date of bill will be allowed in
which to make remittance for same.
Now 1t frequently happens that some
good brother, not being informed as to
this ruling of the Executive Commit
tee, will ask us to ship goods and he
will pay for same on receipt of bill"
or when goods arrive"
Sometimes we r asked to ship &C.
o. D." or with "sight draft bill lading
attached" We do not like to be placed
in the attitude of refusing, but in either
of the above cases we are compelled to
do so. We have had a little experience
in shipping collect" and in nearly
every case it has been unpleasant and
unsatisfactory, some times goods lying
at their destination for weeks before
proper collection and remittance is
made, thus causing dissatisfaction all
around. We feel sure that any brother
who will give this matter a moments
thought will not ask us to violate a
standing rule Of the Alliance. You
will see also that it is better to have a
uniform plan for everybody.
1t is always preferable to have your
bonded Business Agent, but if you wish
TO send them direct, please accompany
each order with cash sufficient to cover
the bill, Any balance will be placed
to your credit, or returned to you as
you may direcb.

G ADVANCED.

You will see by looking through the
price list that the price Of sugar is ad-
vancing. I cannot tell what the mar
ket will be, but the tendency is upward
and as there is no competition in the
manufacturer of sugar, I see nothing
to prevent it from still going higher.
The manufacturer is getting full value
for his sugar and then the government
is paying him a bonus of two cents per
pound. That is a free gift to themanu-
may want a machine. I have mine for
inspection for those who may want to
see one. I will say further that the
machines shipped comes all right &C
cording to order freight paid.

OUR SEWING

There are some sewing machine
agents in different parts of the State
decrying the Alliance machine at ev-
cry home. They tell you it is ''unrelia-
BILE, " made of pot iron," you can
never get repairs" mo one is respOn-
sible to you for repairs" and such like
expression which they know are false.
Only afew days ago, we learned that
one agent was saying that we were
shipping out second hand' machines.
That agentmay deal in second hand"
goods himself. The business agent Of
the State Farmers Alliance does not.
Up to date, Feb. oath wehave delivered
to the brethren over 1000 Alliance ma
chimes. We placed order for seven ma
chimes yesterday, n of which is to go
to Kansas.
Below we give a few original letters
from the brethren which speaks for
merits of our machine.

sewing machine that my wife has been

who may want a machine, that the
high arm Alliance machine is all right
in every respect, for I have owned
three in my time, and a say that the
High Arm Alliance machine is the best
l ever had. One of the machines cost
me about $43 so, and the Alliance ma
chine is far superior to that. My wife
is well pleased with it, it does its work

Business Agents would save time
and trouble if they would use printed
stationery. It costs very little more
than that they now use, and is much
more convenient. Letters occasionally
come to US without being signed, some
times they contain money, and we are
put to some inconvenience to find out
the sender. Printed stationery saves
all this trouble. We are now prepared
to send you, postpaid,

ance and name Of Business Agent or
