THE INDUSTRIAL LEGION.

This new organization was
made by some of the leading
spirits of the Peoples party
at Memphis, last November
during the meeting Of the Ma
tional Farmers Alliance. All
of the parties who took part in
the new organization are men
whose past course, as workers
in the great reform movement,
is above reproach. But not
withstanding this fact, few
of our Alliance papers in the
south have been disposed to
condemn the Legion. This is
wrong. The object of the LIE
gion, is to make the organiza-
ton of the Peoples party more
compact. the enemy we have
to fight is we'll organized and
perfectly united in every move
they make, now if we would
Join them in successful con.
f1ict, we should hail with ap
proval every measure calcula
tod to give US the strength Of
union.
We cannot afford to con
denim the efforts of any man
or men whose object is to pro
mote the growth and strength
of the Peoples party in thu
United States. In that is GU
| hope for the future Of the re
public. ''-The Truth Tex.

ssLearn to Labor and to Watt

The world moves slowly.
Many men become discouraged
because they cannot bring all
the rest of mankind to see as
they do. If such men would
reflect, they would see that the
very thing that they complain of
is the safeguard of all perma-
nent institutions. Ii society
could be easily moved by the
eloquence and logic of one man,
or small class of men, confu-
sion would soon take the place
of order. Society can only be
slowly moved by great, general
causes. Great reforms result
from the pressure of great evils.
This pressure drives all the peo-
pie affected by it to think and
act. All that reformers can dc
is to assist in arousing and di-
recting thought and action. II
the great evils of which We com
plain to-day are genuine, THEN
pressure will continue and In
crease, and the reformer who
"possess his soul in patience, ;
has not many years to wait FOL
the reward of his labors.

IMPORTANT BILLS.
In Senate.

Mr.. Leatherwood, a bill au-
thorizing railroad companies to
grant passes to persons travelling
for orphan asylums in this State
and to orphans going to and
from these orphan asylums. At
ter the bill had passed its first
reading Mr.. Sheriff. offered an
amendment providing that the
same provisions be extended to
the Soldiers Home. Mr.. Day
introduced an amendment pro-
viding that railroad companies
should be allowed to grant
passes to the members. He is we
believe, a railroad attorney, and
his amendment is no doubt in
tended as feeler, we will watch
with interest to see ifthe members
bite.
On Wednesday the nth Maj.

of the Railroad Commission by

A bill appropriating $500 for
the Inauguration ofGov. Carr was
passed last Thursday. The in

morrow. Probably it will inter-
est your readers to know for

used. The items are as follows !:

a hall $500, carriage hire $50, to
pay expenses of State Guard to
conduct the Gov-elect to Raleigh
$1oo, stationery and postage

No sane man believes that Cleve-
lands great vote was dus to his IN
creased personal popularity nor to
any improvement in the Demo
cratic platform over that OF 1888.
The votes were negative. They
were a protest against the party in
power and not an Endorsement OF
the Democratic candidates or plat
form. Had the millions who voted
biindly in protest against the con-
tinuation of the Republican party
in power believed there was any
chance for the Peoples party their
ballots would have been cast for
Weaver and Field. They didn't
want to 'svote in the air. Now
they are doubling the wisdom OF
their choice, and If the Peoples
party is true to ts-lf two years
hence all doubt will be removed,
and the disconnected millions will
rally around it's standard in l SO.

J. IL. Williamson (col.), who
publishes paper called the GA

"The Third party is dead and

sounds so much like Kingsbury,
Jernigan, Ashe, Caldwell &
Company, that if their faces
were blackened zone could not
be told from 'tother.' Has Viii
hanson joined the Negro Dom
ination" fraternity, or is the
above editorial production simply
the result of the training the
Democratic machine gave him
during the campaign, when he
was running for Congress as a

THE NATIONAL Alliance meet
ing at Memphis advised subor-
dinate lodges to use educational
exercises in their meetings. This
is good idea. A series of less
ons beginning on the "Powers
and Functions of Government,
and branching out into a
thoughtful study OF government
economy, would be a valuable
aid to the reform organizations
of the country. We are glad to
know that L. K. Taylor, Ma
tional Secretary-Treasurer OF
the Farmers Alliance and In
dustrial Union, will devote his
energies to this work for the
next year. His editorial work
on the Toi1er, and his campaign
book entitled "Clevelandism vs..
Democracy shows him to be
capable to give the subordinate
lodges some good thoughts.
He proposes to make his les
son leaf to Alliance lodges and
reform clubs just what the In
ternational Sunday-school lesson
is to the country. The lesson
will be classified under four heads,
"Subiect Natter "Points for
Discussion" "PractiCal Points, .
"Questions.'
These lessons will be issued
twice a month, and will be sent
to subordinate Secretaries IN
bundles of fifteen.
Subordinate Secretaries or in
dividuals desiring these lessons
for distribution, should send J..
K. Taylor, Washington, D. c.,

thing to say "A few days since
about the scarcity of Alliance
reformers in that section. For
the information of the Messen-
ger we will state that we have
added 1913 new subscribers on

and that even twenty of them
we're at the Wilmington, N. c.
office.
The Alliance has forced the
Democratic party to admit that
the conditions we complain Of
exist. The Alliance raised the
point Of money famine and de-
manded an increase of the cur
rency. When the Democrats
offer to try to increase the cur
rency and break the monopoly
control of it by starting State
banks, they are admitting the
facts we state and the business Of
the demands we make, but just
like stubborn child, when you
tell 1t the right way to do a
thing it insists ON doing it an
other way We shall see who is
right.

NIX. Z AlRCHILD, secretary OF

in an interview few days since
said that his objection to the
Bland silver bill was that IT
would lower the price of silver.
This is the most bold faced and
artless demagoguery we have
ever heard. The object of Mr..
BANDS bill is to stop discrim-
ination against silver so the
price will stop falling. Mr.
Fairchild's real objection to
the Bland bill is that it would
tend to bring silver to par with
gold, or rather to lower the
premium On gold by taking
from the yellow metal its "spe
cial privileges and tend tc
bring it to a par with silver
Mr.. Bland says do for silver
what you have done for gold
but Mr.. Fairchild is like the
