AS a citizen of North Carolina |
wish to express my appreciation
(and voice the sentiments OF thou
sands to the National Alliance for
recognizing the ability and sterling
integrity of Marion Butler, by max
ing him first Vice President of that
great and noble organization. You
have honored a man as brave as a
lion and as true as steel. He has
more admiring friends and more
bitter enemies than any other man
in the State, and he has Won them
all by carrying triumphantly the
banner of the people through one
of the stormiest campaigns ever seen
in the State. With undaunted cour-
age and intrepid nerve he faced ire
mendous odds before which many a
man would quake and fall. Yes he
was more than match for every OPP
ponent. The plutocratic press criti-

reasons they criticised and SANDER
ed Col. Polk. Because he Qike Col.
Polk is noble champion of equal
rights. Why does the plutocratic
press claim to be friendly to the
rank and file of the reformers, while
they have nothing but abuse for our
leaders? The answer is clear to
every intelligent reformer. They
know that if they can crush one
leader, that another man competent
to champion the cause of the people
will hesitate to come forward simply
to be sacrificed after withstanding
the cruel, bitter and vino1ctive shafts
of the enemy. Yes an enemy that
now pats the people on the
back and give them honeyed words
while slandering and try to rldicule
Marion Butler. Do you hope to
make the people themselves turn
against their friend7 You have got
the cheek Of the devil. Do you take
the people for fools and knaves?
Your game will not work this time.
We know you too well. You will
have to adopt other tactics before
you can hoodwink the people again.
Some of the partisan editors would
have everybody believe that all
the Democratic leaders are ''high
toned patriotic gentlemen" and all
reform leaders .are Contemplate
sneaks and political demagogues."
They pretend friendship to the AL
lance and fight every man who ad-
yocates or rather support Alliance
principles irrespective of party. But
they praise every miserable hypo-
critic who speculates in reform but
twists Alliance principles to suit
whatever platform the Democratic
party happens to be running on.
There is no Allianceism or Democ-
racv in such fellows If Thos. JEFF

g~.asusss.. Of the Haxneft County Farm
err 4Itixarss

@rs' AisIzaes-
At the January meeting OF the
Harnett County Farmers Alliance,
held al Heetor's Greek Academy, the
following resolutions were past a.
an expression of the sentiments of
the BODY on the matters contained
therein:
Resolved, That the dastardiy at
tacks of the ''partizaB press upon
our distinguished aud worthy broth
er, Marion Butler, before and since
the election. are hertby condemned
by the Farmers Alliance of Harnett
county as unworthy the attention of
any man that calls himself an agri-
cllturalist.
Resolved. That the attacks We be-
lieye were made upon brother But
Ter for the soul reason that he does
not believe in the political parties
who have engaged in the shameful
practice Of deceivihg the laborers aud
farmers for more than twenty years
in order that they may more easily
rifle their pockets unnotieed.
Resolved, That We are in the clos
est sympathy with brother Butler in
his noble efforts to free the masses
from the chains of slavery fastened
upon them by these same willy and
insldeous class of fellows.
Resolved, That We consider the
said attacks made equally upon US,
as an Organization, but applied to
brother Butler and other individuals
OF our Order because their authors
were too cowardly to array themselves
against the masses, thinking the peo-
pie were fools enough to believe their
SANDERS to and turn their backs upon
one who had shown his ability and
courage to face terrible opposition in
their behalf,
Resolved, That we are to-day as
closely allied with the demands of
reform of the Alliance as ever and
hereby ask the toiling masses every
where to continue the battle more
ardently until some political party
brings the asked for reliet.
Resolved further, That instead OF
asking brother Butler to resign his
faithful and coveted trust, as the
politicians and partisan papers ad-
vised US, we do hereby, with glad
hearts, endorse the action of the State
Alliance in all its actions of re-elec-
tons at at the last meeting, and the
National Alliance and Industrial
Union, most especially, in the cleo
ton of brother Butler as President
of the former and Vice President of
the latter.
Resolved, That a copy of these
resolutions be sent to the Progressive
Farmer and TIE CAUCASIAN for
publication. q. T. KIvETTE, Pres.

PEOPLE WILL TALK.

You may get through this world.
But twill be very slow,
If you listen to all
That is said as you GO:
You'll be worried and fretted
And kept in stew,
For meddlesome tongues
Must have something to do,
And people will talk.
IF quiet and modest,
You'll have it presumed
That your humble position
Is only assumed.
You're wolf in sleeps clothing
Or else you are fool;
But don't get excited,
Keep perfectly cool,
For people will talk.
And then if you show
The least boldness of heart,
Or slight inclination
To take your own part,
They win call you an upstart,
Conceited and vain,
Bnt keep straight ahead,
Don't stop to explain,
For people will talk.
If threadbare your dress
And old fashioned your hat,
Some one will surely
Take notice Of thst
And hin. rather strongly
That you can't pay your way,
But don't get excited,
Whatever they say.
For people will talk.
1t your dress is in fashion,
Don't think to escape,
For they criticize then
In different shape;
You're ahead OF your means,
Or your tailor's unpaid,
But mind your own business,
There is naught to be made,
For people will talk.
Now the best way to do
Is to do as you please;
For your mild, if you have one,
VIII then be at ease;
OF course you will meet
With all kinds of abuse,
But don't think to stop it
1t amt any use,
For people will talk.

have ye, many things to say unto you. but
ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit, when

The idea Of religion and Of the last
word OF Revelation being thing fixed,
ike formula of mathematics, and fixed
centuries ago and delivered to man SIM
ply Tor the purpose of manipulation, is a
purely human invention. It has no
warrant in the words Of Jesus, nor ia IL
preached anywhere In the Bible.
Jesus said: I'm the early part of nv
ministry I did not tell you some things.
but by and by the spirit of truth viii
reveal them unto you"-that Is, Jesus
himself clearly taught that revelation
was progressive; that no age, not even
the apostolic, had compassed it all. and
that the fullness of the knowledge of
God was something not yet attained
when he closed his work, but was
something yet to come in the process
OF the development of man under
the touch Of his Divine spirit. So we
may look at every report Of the races
progress for signs OF this completing
kingdom. And from every event thus
marked in our history there can be
found prophetic fingers that point for
ward toward the lines along which Gods
work Is developing, Gods life unfolding,
Gods promise being completed.
CHRISTIANITY Is GAINING.
