HAS LOST HOPE.
Senator w. r. Williams, of Pitt County,
Will Vote for Katie and the
Baby Hereafter.
TAYLOR, n. O.

TAYLOR, n. Q.
Mr. EDIroR:-A few days ago my
friend Willis R. Williams, of Pitt
county, by request, met a large crowd
at Stony Hill, in Nash county, and
made a most eloquent, patriotic and
telling speech. He speaks from the
heart and moves and electriies all who
hear him. He is a true reformer and
will stand by the reforms demanded by
the farmers of this country in the
future. He did hope to get these re-
forms and better times through the
Democratic party, but he has lost hope
now and sees that Mr.. Cleveland has
ignored the people and has used his
high position in the interest of Wall
street. This noble hero, and one of the
very best citizens of our State, will not
only talk and work for reform in the
future, but will vote as he talks and
works. Vance-Iike he is for the people
and his country regardless of party.
The Honorable Senator is the President
of the N. @. State Grange and is organ
izing and re-establishing Oranges in
the State.
The day after speaking at Stony Hill
he spoke at Talburt, in Wilson county,
to a full house. All were delighted
with his speech at this place and he
did much good for the reform cause. I
would be glad to see our friend go over
the State and stir up the Grange move
ment by his fire and eloquence. Much
good could be done for the laboring
people OF this country. His coming
among us will bear much fruit, and [
hope he will go out into other parts of
the State and carry the truths to the
hearts of the people as he has here.
Thanks, my friend, and we will be
! glad to have you come again.
H. T. FREEMAN.

WHAT IS AN ORGAN?

The public know what is expected Of
a newspaper that is selected as mouth
piece for a party, organization or CT
poration. However, repeated efforts
have been made to mi~srepresent news
paper organs; and, to some extent,
these efforts have not been in vain.
We propose to talk plainly about this
matter, and will say in advance that
nothing personal is intended.
The party organ, as a rule, is sup
posed to be private property. 1t is ex
pected to stand by the party and its
candidates. Editorialiy it is supposed
to speak the sentiments of the party.
Often the editor does not believe in
what he writes, but it goes in all the
same. The organ of some particular
organization, secret or otherwise, il
expected to stand square upon the
principles of the same and do all it can
for the upbuildjng Of the organization
and for the welfare oE it's membership,
be it religious or secular, political or
non-politic&l. The organ of an indi-
vidual, business concern or corpora
ton is expected to work for that CON
Germ or individual. An organ is some
times owned by the organization it
represents, but is generally private
property. In either case an organ is,
or should be, a general newspaper. A
religious or party organ may publish
the news and a reasonable amount of
miscellaneous matter, also comment
upon topics Of value to it's readers,
though foreign to the precepts of the
organization it represents, bus should
not do this to the exclusion Of matter
directly in harmony with the organi-
cation.
THE Progressive FARMER is private
property and was selected as organ Of
the N. @. State Alliance by the mem
bership thereof. AS such it should
first fulfill its obligations to that organi
cation by publishing all official matter
presented by officers Of said State ALI
ance. Second, its editorials and gen
eral matter should be in harmony with
the intents or purposes CT the organiza-
ton. There it's work. as official organ
ends and Individual liberty begins.
The religious, corporation or organiza-
ton organ does not barter away
personal liberty. The religious organ
Is expected to soar above partisan
ship, but 1t has the right to review
the political affairs Of the country.

politician. In n instance he drove

We are still trying to find out why a
good many people who are without
money should wish to come to a gold
basis, reduce values Of everything ex-
cept gold, make cotton sell for 5 cents
and wheat for so cents, merely to en-
rich a few American, Eoglish, French
and Jewish goldbugs. As an eminent
man said recently, it looks like the
country will soon resolve itself into a
vast lunatic asylum.

WE MUST HAVE ONEY.

August and September are always
dull months for newspapers. The year
1898 has been dulIer than any previous
season on record. Recently the panic
began and the trouble is moro acute
than ever. Advertising has been hard
to get and many advertisers have either
stopped entirely or have cut their space
down. Yet our expenses cannot be re
duced without working injury to our
patrons and the paper itself. We must
have money that is due for subscrip-
tons, and at once. Thousands of the
strongest business concerns in the
country have stopped, but we don't
think our patrons are willing for THE
PROGRESSIVE FARMER to stop it's week
Iy visits. Look at your label and see
how much you owe, or if your sub
scription is not about to expire. Send
part or all at once. Dent wait for
somebody to send; don't wait to sell
cotton, tobacco or anything else, but
do your best to send the money at
once. Don't delay this matter, like the
reform we we're promised. You 'have
a chance now; send the money along.
Talk to your neighbors and send their
renewals or subscriptions. We are in
earnest now. We must have wha5 IS
due or you will fail to get the paper.
We are doing our best to help our pat,
rons get justice and good times. You
must help us. This applies to people
in every county and every State.
Prof. j. B Carlyle, Of Wake Forest
College, paid us a call last week on his
return from Tennessee, where he has
been spending his vacation. He, is
looking well and ready to begin the
work of the session., which opens this
week, with renewed energy. The Pro
lessor said be enjoyed reading The
PROGRESSIVE FARMER this summer. In
this, however, he simply echoes the
sentiments of thousands of others.

political. One fundamental principle
is that the membership be educated to
voted for their individual and collective
benefit, regardless of men and parties.
The Alliance organ is left free to act in
this matter. The party or men who
put forth the platform in full harmony
with the Alliance platform should al
ways have the support of the Alliance
organ. If it stands fatfooted upon the
Alliance platform, believes it right,
then it would be absurd for the paper
to remain silent, and criminal for it to
advise the membership to vote with a
party entirely out of harmony with
the Alliance principles. You may say
that this might ~necessitate a change of
parties every year. What if it does9
The PROGRESSIVE FARMER supported
the Peoples party last year, it having
adopted the Alliance platform almost
word for word, the other parties ignor-
ing the Alliance. If the Peoples party
should adopt a platform entirely diff
ferent next year and some other party
would adopt u platform, we would
not be to blame, for the party would
leave us in a position to choose the
best again. That is the only sensible
and consistent course for a newspaper
or individual. If arsenic is placed in
a sugar bowl, you need not sweeten
your coffee with the arsenic when you
know there is no sugar in it. The man
who has his own and the country's
welfare at heart will not support q
party for its name only. You need
not expect any party TO be perfect,
neither should you be so imperfect
yourself as to vote for a party totally
imperfect. There are q number Of
members Of the Alliance who believe
that the demands are right, yet vote
for things they know are not right. To
such we say, consider what you are
doing. We will not criticize you, but
as for your organ, it will not pursue
any such course.
