NEW HANOVER COUNTY MEET
ING.

Mr. EDITOR New Hanover County
Alliance met with Myrtle Grove oGo
Alliance Thursday, April 18TH. we
never had a more successful and mar
moniou, meeting, every Sub Alliance
being represented. Everybody orought
their baskets along and Bro. u. W.
Rodoars furnished an oyster roast, the
meeting being near Myrtle Grove
Sound.
The meeting was called to order at
II a. m. by Bro. l.. R. Mason, Presi
dent. There was a larger attendance
than usual and everybody seemed to
no enthusiastic and awake. There was
general indignation expressed concern.
ing the way the last legislature treated
us.
We lost a few members during the
last campaign but we have gained
others and Iconsider that the Alliance
is gaining ground. The o the par
tisan press abuses us, the more aroused
and enthusiastic u members become.
THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER and C0ucdS
ian are read now by most of our mem
bers.
After t~ransacting the regular routine
business Bros. R. F. Gore, R. S. Muir
ray, E. 7. Carney and John Keys were
appointed as a committee on resolu
tions. They were instructed to draw
suitable resolutions condemning the &C
tion Of the last legislature for attempt
ing to cripple the Alliance and destroy
the Business Agency, which is giving
the farmers so much relief.
ReSOiued, That we condemn the ac-
ton of the last Legislature in their at
tempt to repeal the charter Of the N.
G. Farmers State Alliance, and that
we condemn the amendments they
offered to the charter instead Of accept
ing the amendments offered by the
State President.
2. That we believe it was purely a
partisan effort to destroy our Organiza-
ton and disband the class of agricul-
turists that have organized for their
own protection, an organization born Of
necessity and whose motto is truth
with good will for all.
3. That we publicly express Our con
tempt for the action of the Legislature,
both House and Senate, IN their unhOly
attempt to cripple our Order.
4. That We d~enounce and condemn
said action as unjust and malicious and
that we consider it as an expression of
their extreme enmity toward the ALI
ance.
5, That we endorse the manly and
statesmanlike course of cur State
President, Marion Butler, in defending
our Order against the vIllainous attack
of the partisan press
6. That we will show Jul a~pprecia-
ton for him and his work for cause
by subscribing for and circulating his
paper, and will recommend it to ali
refOrmers.
Z. That we appreciate the course and
ability of The PROGRESSIVE FARMER III
turning on the light.

Ihave examined the work, Labor

slider it a first class work, which should
be read by every one who is interested
in the reform movement and the prog
ress toward a higher civilization. The
more equitable distribution of wealth
is the great problem of the age, and
should be studied by every citizen, and
Labor and Capital" throws much
light upon the subject which every one

HadA Narrow Escape.

Mr.. NJ. Baer, travelling salesman for
Baer Bros. Grocery Company, came near
meeting his fate Sunday night by being
asphyxiated by natural gas. He was
out at Pleasant Valley Sunday after
noon visiting his relatives and came in
last Sunday evening and went TO his
room at the Hotel Van Kuren.
Being cold he turned on the gas as
full as il wotld burn and then retired,
without turning the pressure of. dur
ing the night sometime the gas came on
strong, and the force was so great that
all the gas was not consumed and it
poured out into the room.
About four o'clock in the morning
travelling man who had a room next to
Baer's, was awakened by groans. Sus-
pecting something was wrong be noti
fed Mr.. Van Keuren, who Immediately
ordered a physician summoned, and Ia
the meantime gained an entrance 10
Baer's room by forcing open the door.
When they got inside the young man
was lying on the floor unconscious, hav-'
ing evidently rolled out Of the bed. He
was Immediately carried out in the hall
way, where the cold air had the effect
of reviving him somewhat. BY this
time the physician arrived and did
what could be done to bring Baer
around.

Bishop Kahn Probably to Assume the OF
. flee OF Coadjutor In tn StLouis Diocese
Although the news has, as yet, not
been confirmed, there have been runors
in st. Louis the past day or two that
Bishop Kahn had been appointed Coad-
jutor to Archbishop Keudrick in the st.
Louis diocese. The Bishop has received
no news of his appointment as yet. This
is very important diocese, one OF the
most important and responsible in the
country, and whoever assumes the Of
flee will have multiplied duties.
1t is understood that the clergy OF
st. Louis, as well as a majority Of the
lalty, are strongly in favor of Bishop
Kain, but whether this will have
bearing with the Pope or Lot remains
to be seen. Three names were sent 10
Rome sometime ago, and as the Pope
has the appointing, it will likely not be
long now before it is definitely known
who is to grace this high position.
Word will be received here in day or
swo.
Archbishop Kendrick is getting along
in years, and unable to attend to the
constantly growing duties OF the do
cese. The coadjutor will largely have
the work of the diocese in charge, prac-
tically being the archbishop without
the title. Upon the death Of the arch
bishop, the coadjutor will take his
place.

LswI. Morrison as "MephistO."

A large and appreciative audience
assem- bled at the Opera House, last
night, 10 witness Faust" as depicted
by the Lewis Morrison Company. The
representation was most excellent one
throughout, and most enjoyable, al
though the house was about as cold as
a lOg barn, for which q break in water
pipe, In some manner connected with
the heating apparatus, was responsible.
Mr. Morrison was excellent in his role
of ''Mephisto," as he always is, al
though suffering from a severe cold,
and the entire cast and stage setting
was satisfactory and the incidental
music by the Opera House orchestra
fine. There was much applause during
the evening and several recalls, during
one of which Mr.. Morrison made a hap
py address, in which he alluded CRATE
fully to the appreciation Wheeling
audiences always accorded him, and
said some true things in pleasant way
about the temperature of the building
aud Wheeling's need Of new and mod
ern theater.

said Criminal Conrt would have plenty
Of time TO attend to both. The last pri-
maries in this city on both sides will
convince any person that reform is
needed in that direction. The Mayor
of the city should not be the proper
party to try offenders for the violation
of ordinances. Would it be proper for
him to order the arrest of parties and
then try them? 1t certainly would not.
This style of municipal government
would suit small village. But this
city has grown to such an extent that
the people must keep pace with the
progress of the times. The Alderman
of this city forty years ago tried the
offenders, which was practically the
Mayor. We are to-day in the same rut as
we were then forty years ago. What
say you, Councilmen? Wake up to the
times, and give the people OF this city a
good city government. REFORM.
