TO SECRETARIES OF SUB-ALLI-
ANCES IN robson COUNTY.

DEAR BRETHREN:-Do all you can,
reasonably, to revive up your lodges
now that there is no political campaign
in the way.
Tell them that our last county meet
ing was one of the best we have ever
held, and that from the programme of
the next meeting it bids fair to be far
better; that the next meeting will be
held in the Alliance Hall at Raft
Swamp; that those hospitable people
propose to give a dinner for the ALI
ance only that we will have good sing
ing and a lively discussion on the
query: "How do the methods and
customs of farm-life of this day and
time compare with the same for
twenty-five to fifty years ago9 Are
they better or not7" The election of
officers will take place at this time.
Tell them that some of the Subs have
revived very much and are doing well,
and that by contributing 10 cents per
quarter, the Alliance now proposes to
insure their property against loss to
the amount of half of $4OO; that any of
them who have not surrendered their
charters will be reinstated by paying
up for two quarters.
Insist upon your members paying
their dues in time for you to meet the
County Secretary at Lumberton on the
first day of each quarter (July, Octo-
Dor, January and ApriD, OF before, In
less such first day should come on Sun
day, in such case meet on day before.
1t is very important that Secretaries
should be prompt and let us see to it
that for once at least every Alliance in
the county is reported in time so that
the county meeting can move off with
it's business and not have to wait for
the Secretary to get ready for work.
All Secretaries of Sub-Alliances who
did not report last quarter would bet
ter drop a card to the State Secretary
for blank reports as 1 do not report
such to him.
You should forward 10 cents dues
for every male member reported in
good standing no matter if some Of
them have just been initiated. And
when members are re instated who
have not paid dues within six months.
the fifty cents (re~storation) fees should
be regarded rs initiation fee.
Be sure to fill your reports out in
full and give anything else thatwould
be interesting. Hoping that you will
DO all in your power in the premises,
l am, Yours ~fraternally,
w. III. HUMPHREY,
] Sec. Treas. Robson Alliance.

Mr.. EDIToR:-The following is an
essay read by sister S. j. L~angston, in
Mill Creek Farmers Sub Alliance, May
goth, 1898:
Mr.. PRESIDENT, BROTHERS AND Sis
TERs:-I have been reading reform
literature for some time, and the more
I read the more fully I am impressed
that we all have a part in the reform
movement to relieve thepoor; oppressed
wealth-producers of our country. Since
Joining the Alliance 1 have been nor
than ever impressed with the RESPONSE
biIity of our relation to families
and the human race, Individually and
collectively and while I do not intend
to discuss this subject fully, I want to
say something to the sisters that will
encourage them to attend the meeting
of our lodges and take a greater inter
est in the subjects there discussed. We
are vitality concerned in whatever
effects our husbands, brothers and
fathers; and whatever effects their in
UCAC5V C41OSGO OO4O AAhNANASAO
shall we not encourage them to attend
every meetings and also attend our
selves whenever Ii our power to do so?
We should avail ourselves Of every OPP
portunity to acquire knowledge that
would be useful in educating our fami-
lies, for upon us, to q great extent, de
ponds the education of the rising gen
GRAFTON of the farmers and laborers,
especially the farmers boys and girls.
Sisters, let us be up and doing our
duty, aiding and assisting in every
good word and work, using our infu-
ence encouraging reform whenever
needed. Let us, with true courage,
maintain the right and condemn the
wrong whenever found.

NATURE MUST FIGHT.

The Ne1Us and Observer of the 25th
said:
''In common with all persons of a
sympathetic disposition, we regret the
havoc made by the fearful storms that
have visited this country, but we would
like to know what particular spite the
wild winds have against the tin plate
works established at Elmwood, Ind.
Thrice have those works been inter
fered with by storms, and not a tin plate
has been as yet Neutrality-suspicious.
withstanding the Mckinley bill Can
it be that Nature is fighting the high
TARIFF
We expect Nature is fighting the
high tariff. The Democratic party has
backed down and Nature is the only
thing that is in a position to do much.
Nature will have to reform the tariff,
reform the pension system and do a lot
of things, for Wall STRAIGHTFORWARD
Democracy-doesn't believe in reform
or anything else that is honest.

IT. B. HoovRRINGATEs COUNTY
Crowds Small at Some Places, but Get
Better as He Goes On.

Mr.. EDITOR:-I have had the pleas
ure of spending some days with Bro.
Hoover while in this county. Bro.
Hoover's first appointment was at
Gates, a small station on the Norfolk
and Carolina Railroad. When he ar
rived at Gates, from his statement,
things looked quite gloomy, and the
number he met was very discouraging.
He arrived at Gates on the evening be-
fore he was tospeak. Finding no friends
he left for Gainesville, the county seat,
from Gatesville to my house. The next
morning he insisted On going to Gates,
a distance of eight miles, with the de-
termination to speak if there should be
but two to hear him. 1 took him to
Gates, and by II o'clock a. N. there
had gathered quite a good crowd. He
spoke for one hour with telling effect.
The next day 1 took him to Sunsbury
where we found a large crowd. He
spoke nearly two hours with marked
success.
On Monday, the goth, he spoke in the
courthouse in Gainesville to quite a good
crowd. He would have had a very
large crowd had it not been for the rain
which fell from early morn till noon.
Notwithstanding many who lived at a
distance came through a ~drenching
rain to attend the speaking. I have
made strict enquiry and every one
speaks in the highest terms of his
speeches. 1 heard a merchant a
after his speech in Sunsbury that no
one could find any objection to it, and
heard another merchant say the same
thing in Gainesville. If there ever was
the right man in the right place Bro.
Hoover is that man. He aroused the
Iukewarm in the Alliance and forever
silenced many of our enemies. Bro.
Hoover is doing a great work for the
Business Agency and the Alliance
cause. Very few appeared to pay any
attention to his coming, but after see.
ing and hearing him speak, every one
wanted him to stay longer, and each
wanted him at his own house. Iheard
a man who has always been the most
h;t. er against our organization give
him a uaost pressing invitation thai
ehotlfl he cyvr come to this county

PERSON COUNTY, N. Q.
Mr., EDITORIAL a regular meeting
of Hurdles Mills Alliance, No, 796,
held April 9th, 1898. the following reso-
buttons were unanimously adopted
WHEREAS, The last General Assem-
bly, of North Carolina attempted to re
peal the charter of the Farmers ALI
ance Of North Carolina, and did pass
amendments to said charter which are
entirely without a just cause; therefore
be it
Resolved, That we regard this as a
cowardly and uncalled for act, as a
direct blow at the North Carolina
Farmers State Alliance, an attempt
on the part of our enemies to injure
our noble Order and further depress
the working people.
2. That we consider it as an express
sion of their extreme enmity toward
the Alliance and detrimental to good
government
8. That we feel a pitiable contempt
for any member of the Alliance who
has advocated the cause of the Alliance
and Endorsed it's demands, then to
crafty our worst enemies outside the
Order and stopping to anything to &C
complish their fiendish purpose to
crush out the organization he has
sworn to support.
4. That we look upon the State Bust
ness Agency of North Carolina as our
first fruit and entirely necessary to our
welfare, and will note the members of
the last legislature who wantOnly at
tempted to deprive us of its great bene-
fits.
5. That we most heartily endorse the
manly and patriotic conducS of our
highly esteemed President, Bro. Marion
Butler, throughout the whole of his
course since he became the leader of
the Alliance in the State, and that we
earnestly commend to our brethren
everywhere his great paper, the CaW-
caSian, respectfully suggesting that
they subscribe to it.

THE ovERPRoDUcT1oN DODGE.
A Question from Thomas Carlyle in
which he Foretold what would
Come to Pass.
TARBORO, N. @.

TARBORO, N. @.
Mr.. EDIToR:-The calamity howl,
ers" have been fed fol some time on
the "overproduction" theory, and now
I request you to reproduce herewith
what that master of English, that pro-
found scholar, thinker and ~reasoner,
Thomas Carlyle, had to say on the
''overproduction" dodge.
Hear his burning words:
'sThe Republic west of us will have
it's trial period, it's darkest of all hours.
It is travelling the high road to that
direful day. And this scourge will not
come amid famine's horrid stride, nor
will it come by ordinary punitive judg-
ments. It will come as a hiatus in
s~tatecraft, a murder bungle in policy.
II will be when health is intact, crops
abundant, and the m~unifcent hand
omen. Then so called statesmen will
crv overproduction, the people will go
tn the ballot box amid hunger and des-
titution, but surrounded by the glitter
of gelf-rule, and ratify, by their ballots,
the monster falsehood, overproduction.
uttered by mis-statesmen and vindi,
Gated by the anne ballot the infamous
lie, overproduction, thrown upon the
breeze by servile editors through a cor
rupt press. And this brings ruin upon
his country, serfdom upon himself and
oppression upon his children"
This prophecy is being fulfilled in
this country to day. Our so called
statesmen have been preaching to the
people that "overproduction" has
brought about the present deplorable
condition.
Yet many of the people went to the
ballot box and by their votes forged
tighter the letters that bind them to
plutocracy. JAMES B. LLOYD.

much so that the following res olutions
were passed:
Resolved, That we condemn the &C
ton of the last Legislature of North
Carolina in laying its hands on our
State Business Agency fund.
2. The legislature of 1898 will be long
remembered for this malicious act
8. That we believe the sole purpose
actuating such proceedings from first
to last was to cripple, confuse and dis
rupt u noble Order and destroy the
unity of the laboring classes.
4. That a copy of these resolutions
be sent to The PROGRESSIVE FARMER
and the Caucasian for publication.

DIR. IN WAYNE.
Good Crowds Hear the State Lecturer
and are Well Pleased.

and are Well Pleased.
Mr. EDTToR The Alliance State
Lecturer, DR.. Cyrus Thompson, has
lust completed the circuit of appoint
ments made for him in the county,
closing at Fremont.
The doctor is undoubtedly one of the.
very best speakers in North Carolina,
and unquestionably the best Lecturer
the State Alliance has ever possessed.
The doctor opened at Providence
May 9th to a very a~ppreciative audi
ence Of citizens, both ladies and gentle
men, and after the speaking a very fine
repaat was set to grace the occasion
and appease the call Of the inner man,
At Mount Olive, Saturday, May 81,
a large and enthusiastic crowd of 400
havseeders and their families met in
concert to greet the doctor and testify
as part of the Alliance f~uneralist that
the railroad roosters Of the legislature
tried to bury, to the fact that there Is
more life and more prospect OF their
attending a funeral than there is Of
their furnishing funerals at the hands
of the railroad dibblers.
At Seven Springs, Monday, May 20,
although the day was rainy and I'M
favorable, the crowd that attended the
speaking was good, and presented the
least possible appearance of a funeral
in that section to which the dibblers
could contribute their respectful
notice.
At Hood Swamp, Tuesday, May 80,
the crowd was small, though as large
as could be expected at this busy season
of the year.
At Fremont, Wednesday, May 81,
quite a pleasant and pleasing audience
attended to hear the doctor, among
whom were to be een several of the
Peoples party candidates, even DR..
w. P. Exum graced the occasion with
his presence, but alas9 poor Benny Of
the school Of Aycock, what Bob Max
we'll didn't praise off in the last cam
paign, took itself off in a ify from his
big and bigger mercantile association
and vocation, to his diversified farm,
where his agricultural school pursuits
are permissible wherever the legisla
tive funeral Of the Alliance may
chance to be located at his Free mount
town. The corpse Of the Alliancemen
seem to so effect poor Bennie's averdu-
poise as to completely unsettle his
nervous system and set his locomotive
machinery to running as fast as the
legislature would allow one OF it's lad
journed members to ride.
There has been two Alliance meet
ipgs in Fremont since the legislature
adjourned, and Bonnie has been miss
ing each time. He doesn't seem to
care to hear the Alliancemen tell him
how grateful CD they are for his gen
erous and gratuitous labors for their
funeral, while acting as a substitute
Senator, where R. Y. Maxwell was
elected by nearly 100 majority by the
votes of the people in Fender, Duplin
and Wayne counties. I have always
heard substitutes were poor apologists
and I think it true.

again to make his house his home.
Bro Hoover never forgets The Pro.

He left Gates on Monday evening, the
30, in good hands but bad weather, for
Hartford county,

like bread cast upon the waters. The
effect thereof will be seen for many
days. Long may he live and prosper.

AN AMENDMENT PROPOSED.
The Relief Plan is not as Effective as it
Should Be.

Mr.. EDITORIAL a regular meeting
of Middle Sound Farmers Alliance,
No. 2,1O6, held May 18th, 1893, the fol
lowing resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
ResolUed, That we think orr Relief
Fund is too small amount from the
members of each Sub to reach all the
losses that may occur in the grand
work that we are now engaged in.
2. That we think each male member
in good standing should pay % cts. per
quarter for relief purposes instead of
Is cts, and all who do not wish to take
any part in it, Or pay the said 25 cts.
shall not be entitled to any benefits.
3. That each Secretary keep a book
with the names of those who pay the
% cts. and every quarter the Score
taries forward the money and the
names of those who have paid to our
State Secretary.
