Letters from the Brethren Boiled Down
to Save Space.
Bro. J. Mop. Geddie, Cumberland
county, writes that the Alliance is on
a boom in the vicinity of Cedar creek,
Col. Harry Skinner made fine speech
there recently and they are much re-
vived.
A friend who signs his name Job"
writes that he once had plenty of con-
fdence, and plenty of money, but now
money is lacking and so is confidence.
That is a good application. Lack of
money and lack Of confidence go hand
in hand. You can't have one without
the other.
A brother writing from a western
county declares that every man in his
neighborhood would be a subscriber to
The PROGRESSIVE FARMER if they were
able. It is sad to think that there are
thousands of families in America who
think they are too poor to read a good
paper. We know they are poor, but
think they might find some way to
raise dollar each year for a paper.
Try little harder, friends.

ARE YOU A GoLDBUGa

We do not claim that the demonetiza-
tion of silver in 1873 and the proposed
demonetization by the Cleveland Wall
street administration is responsible for
all of the present trouble, for trusts
and produce exchanges have proven
themselves highly beneficial in effect
ing the ruin. However, here is how it
stands:
In 1873 silver was worth $132 an
ounce: now it is worth about so cents.
In 1873 cotton was worth 90 cents
pound now it is selling at cents.
In 1873 wheat was worth S1.50 a
bushel; now it is so cents.
In 1878 wool was selling for 81 cents;
now it brings Is cents.
Now, brother, we don't know how
you voted last year, it is none OF our
business. but when you read the above
for either of the cops you voluntarily
voted to continue this downward
course, you ought to feel bad.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1893-08-08
EDITORIAL SUGGESTIONS,

If J. Sterling Morton, Commissioner
of Agriculture, had been engaged in
farming the land instead Of the people
prior to his appointment, he would not
wear a diamond as large as the end Of
our thumb. Away with farmers like
-erry Rusk and Sterling Morton.
The German who said that he could
lot understand the American papers
ghen one said the bank has gone up"
nd the other said "the bank has gone
lnder," hadn't been here long. A bank
hat depends on confidence" for its
apital is as likely to go up as it is to
80 anywhere.
An agricultural exchange suggests
that farmers can proftably spend some
time inspecting each others farms at
this season Of the year That is not a
bad idea. You may learn something
by observation, also by comparing
notes. 1t will be profitable, perhaps,
and tend to sociability.
The Congress that demonetized silver
IN 1878 was composed of both Demo
Gratis and Republicans. After we see
what they were and who they were, it
isn't wise to quibble over their politics.
To begin with, 12O were bankers, 80
were lawyers, IA were merchants, 13
were manufacturers, 7 were doctors
and I were mechanics. The people are
to blame for electing such Congress,
but some Of them are still fools enough
to vote for anybody except farmers.
An Ohio farmer writes the RuraI
Aer Yorker that he has just threshed
his wheat crop and averaged 81 bushels
per acre, yet he can't afford to raise
wheat at 80 cents a bushel, even if he
continues to reap a good yield. He
says he Is going to raise less wheat and
more potatoes. The Rural NeaU Yorker,
with true plutocratic ingenuity, pats
Ine farmer on the back and says ''gO
ahead and raise potatoes. I" If that
paper and that farmer know anything
tney know that potato raisers and
wheat raisers are now on par, and to
quit one and go into the other will not
remedy the matter. Financial reform,
and a knocking out of the crop gamb-
Ier8, is the farmers only hope.
