OUR SEWING

There are some sewing machine
agents in different parts of tho State
decrying the Alliance machine at ev-
cry home. They tell you it is "unrelia-
BILE, =" made of pot iron," you can
never get repairs. - mo one is respon-
sible to you for repairs" and such like
expression which they know r false.
Only afew days ago, we learned that
one agent was saying that we were
shipping out second hand" machines.
That agentmay deal in second hand
goods himself. The business agent OF
the State Farmers Alliance does not.
Up to date, Feb. oath wehave delivered
to the brethren over 1000 Alliance ma
chimes. We placed order for seven ma
chimes yesterday, one of which is togo
to Kansas.
Below we give a few original letters
from the brethren which speaks for
merits of our machine.

N. O:
DEAR SIR:-I take pleasure in wri.
ting you concerning the sewing ma
chine I ordered from you September
the goth, 1892. I wish to say to those
who may want a machine, that the
high arm Alliance machine is all right
in every respect, for | have owned
three in my time, and can say that the
High Arm Alliance machine is the best
I ever had. One of the machines cost
me about $43 so, and the Alliance ma
chine is far superior to that. My wife

well as ever / saw any machine, / can
not recommend it too highly for 1t

do this for the benefit of those who

FAKE NOTICE.

The brethren will please bear in mind
that In my official capacity as State
Business Agent, / am acting directly
under the instruction of the State
Executive Committee. Their instruc-
tlons are that / shall "flI orders only
when cash to the full amount of the
bill accompanies each order, except In
cases of County and Sub-Business
Agents who have filed in my office a
Justified legal bond for double the
amount expected to be due at any one
time, in which latter case thirty DAYS
from date of bill will be allowed in
which to make remittance for same.
Now it frequently happens that some
good brother, not being informed as to
this ruling of the Executive Commit
tee, will ask us to ship goods and he
" will pay for same on receipt OF bill, y
or when goods arrive"
Sometimes we r asked to ship &C.
0. d." or with "sight draft bill lading
attached" We do not like to be placed
In the attitude of refusing, but in either
o.. the above cases we are compelled to
do So. We have had a little experience
in shipping "collect," and in nearly
every case it has been unpleasant and
unsatisfactory, some times goods lying
at their destination for weeks before
proper collection and remittance is
made, thus causing dissatisfaction all
around. We feel sure that any brother
who will give this matter a moments
thought will not ask us to violate a
standing rule of the Alliance. You
will see also that it is better to have a
uniform plan for everybody.
It is always preferable to have your
orders come through your regular
bonded Business Agent, but if you wish
to send them direct, please accompany
each order with cash sufficient to cover
the bill. Any balance will be placed
to your credit, or returned to you as
you may direct.
