LETTER FROM ROWAN.

MR.. EDIToR:-Please grant m9 space
in your valuable paper once again.
I'm no member of the Alliance, but
YOU can rest assured that I am with
them in every action Of theirs which
tends to better the interests Of the poor
man; although I am yet powerless at
the ballot box, shall in the future en-
deavor to do all can to bring about
good old times"
Sub Alliance No. 442 is still doing bust
ness at its old stand, seven miles west
of Salisbury, and about 25 or 80 of the
best citizens of this vicinity are found
in it's ranks, a more true set of patriots
cannot be found anywhere. They keep
abreast with the times by reading
papers like THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER,
Caucasian and the Revolution. They
are with the brotherhood. They are
standing by them in time Of storm,
and in peace they do their duty.
Again when 1896 comes their votes
shall be counted, nay, not only theirs
but many, many others of their neigh
bors, they will be counted with those
who wish better government.
They have been carrying on an ex-
tensive business with the State Busi-
ness Agency also, in fact they do nearly
all their purchasing from the Business
Agent. For the year ending Septem-
Der 1st Salem Alliance have ordered
over $4,000 worth of goods, and in the
future, SO long as they are allowed to
carry silver in their pockets, intend to
do the greater part of their trading
with the Agency, for they are always
pleased.
Congress is now in session, and our
people Democrats, Republicans and
Populists) are all expecting the
promised, and it can be plainly
noticed that a great many of Rowan's
Democrats shedding their final tears
and are striking the old party with all
their might, and should the present
administration fail to help the peo-
pie in their financial depression, and
not carry out their Chicago pledges,
there will be a mighty funeral to preach
sometime in the near future. In the
language of Senator Vance, there will
be nothing left but the smell of brim-
stone and Wall street. But we hope,
as do all true Democrats who have
anv Jeffersonian principls about them,
that the extra session will relieve the
people financially and otherwise.
If Cleveland and few other North
ern gold bugs want to impoverish the
South we hope there are enough men
in Congress who have the courage to
thwart his damnable purposes.
Yours until Cleveland quits fishing.

EDITORIAL SUGGESTIONS.

Common salt sprinkled in hen nests
or houses will drive away mites, a very
small veruin very injurious to fowls.
Bee keeping has not been very profit
able for some years, but we would like
70 see mere bees in the South. Try it
again.
Give your COWS sulphur and salt
freely and they will not be troubled
with ticks. \ trough should be placed
in the pasture where they can eat of
the two ar icles freely.
Sow turnips for winter feeding
Sheep, hogs and COWS are very fond OF
them. In the South they can be sown
as late as the first days of October, but
earlier sowing is preferable.
The Cherokee Outlet, containing
about six million acres of land, has
been thrown open to settlers. 1t is
said that three hundred thousand peo-
pie were camped on the borders wait
ing for the day to arrive.
Many poultry keepers who have but
limited range do better with their
poultry in Summer than many farmers
90. Range is not rything. The
poultry house on the farm must be
kept clean and nice, the fowls must
have plenty of pure water, dust baths,
etc. Neglect Of such details destroy
the profits.
We frequently see lime and salt
recommended ''to keep eggs as fresh as
when laid" There is no process that
Will do that. Still when eggs are sell
Ing at very low prices, eggs that are
prevented from becoming utterly too
Dad for use will bring more after
awhile. AS a rule, however, it does
not pay TO keep eggs on a small scale.

hlDg OF England; and about the year
1776 they rose up and cried out behold,
we will have a ruler Of our own, and
they made George their ruler and he
ruled eight years; and he walked in the
ways of the Lord and the Lord blessed
him; and the acts of George first and
last, LOT they are written in the history
OF the U. S. A and the days of George

years OF James Ill we're fifty and four

his reign, and then Chester was heir to
the throne, and he ruled four years
and he died; and then Grover the Great
vas made King, and he reigned four
years, and behold at the end of that
time the poor and oppressed people
grew tired Of Grover and they tried
Benjamin, Of the house of Harrison,
four years, and behold it came to pass
at the end of that time that they were
tired Of Benjamin, and said he would
not do. Ard behold il came to pass
about the year 1892, that few of the
wealthy Scribes and Pharisees rose up
and cried out in loud voice, behold
we Will make Grover tie Great King
now and for always so long ashe liveth.

local self g government by tngrafting il
our fundamental law Of the land the
right to worship God according to the
dictates of cur own c0ncience :"
Are our fathers Of the land to day
following cur forefathere? Have we
to-day got the same government that
our torefathers set up? Would to God
Il were the same. Were it the same,
there would be no secret organizations.
That Is what these Communists" are
doing, trying to persuade the people to
go back to the government of our fore
fathers Abe oh! the responsibilities
that are resting on our preachers to
dag What Influence can they expect
TO have on the young, reckless,
thoughtless boy or girl3 They will get
up in the pulpit and denounce da cling
and drinking advise and persuade the
young man Or woman, for Jesus sake,
TO depart from these evil devices. And
what does that same preacher do on
election day9 He encourages these
very things that he has preached
against SO hard. He will vote for
drunkard to make laws for us. He
will vote for man fer President who
must be welcomed to his seat by a
grand ball. Where is the consistency
in any such3 May our Father in
Heaven direct us all and teach the pco
pie TO know when they are following
their forefathers and when they are
not. Is our government today free
one? If so, why are the poor farmers
and poor, hard working men so de-
pressed? All! the government of our
forefathers has long been forsaken,
and to whom does it belong to day? To
Wall street. Wall street rules this
country, and if the communists"
don't work mighty hard it will not be
many years more before this country
will be owned by Wall street. 1t is not
any wonder that the people in Europe
say that King Grover is a second Wash
ington when they can get him to do
anything they want him to do with the
almighty dollar. Poor man, I'm sorry
for any one Of you who is so blind as
to think Grover is working for your
interest, and will let him lead you on
to destruction, while at the same time
it is not your interest but the almighty
dollar that he is working for. Who
are most like anarchists, the ones that
are trying to open the eyes of the peo-
pie and lead them back to the govern
ment our forefathers set up for us, or
the ones that are trying to keep them
blinded and going on down the road to
destruction9
What does our so-called Christian
Democrats think Of King Grover now
since he has welcomed the Pope
of Rome to the United States to
abolish all our free religious rights
to worship the true and only
living God which is in Heaven,
and to establish the Roman Catholic
religion as the only way of worship in
our once free States? Even Harrison
would not do so base a thing. May
God bless his people and may our
rights Of free worship according to the
dictates Of our conscience not be done
away with, but stand as long as the
world shall stand.
Sincerely,
A P P GIRL
