REMEMBER

the Annual Meeting of the State
Alliance.
The constitution of the State Ali
ance originally fixed the first Tues
day in January as the day Of the an
nual meeting. 1t has been thought
that the members would prefer to
come together week later, so as to
be able to celebrate New Years Day
with their families. Hence the con-
stitution was changed fixing the date
of the annual meeting on the second
Tuesday in January. 1t will be held
in the Lumber Exchange hall, Mime
apolis. Let all friends of the
cause will make special efforts to be
present. The meeting will be an in
teresting and most important one:
and several questions of moment will
be discussed; the speeches by Hon. A.
Keyes, w. w. Erwin, S. M. Owen and
others will add interest to the occa-
sion. We are passing through terri
BILE times, and unless special efforts
are made the convention will be a
small one:-not from any lack of in
terest in the work but because Of the
cost of attending from distant parts
of the state.
But remember that the evil condi-
tions of misgovernment which now
aff1ict US are due to past neglect of
duty by the voters; and if the chosen
spirits of the rural population, repre-
sented in the State Alliance now
grow disheartened and give up the
fight, the last barrier will be broken
down and the poverty and wretched-
ness of the people must greatly in
crease. This is not any one mans
battle;-it is all mems battle.
Let every man who loves his coun-
try and liberty, and who desires the
happiness and prosperity of himself
and his posterity, rally his neighbors,
rekindle the alliance fires, and be
with us on the 9th of January.
The worst of oppression is that it
depresses it's victims below the point
of resistance. It first plumbers and
then demonetizes them. It gives the
slave slaves spirit. 1t robs him
until he has nothing left to fight
with. That is the condition that is
slowly crawling over the producing
classes of Minnesota. The toilers Of
the eastern states have already fallen
into political helplessness. They
groan and obey.
Be with us, friends and brethren, on
January 9th, and let us see if we can
not do something toward driving
back the demoniac forces that are in
vading our land.

IMAGINARY TROUBLES.
A short Synopsis of Rev. W. K. Penrod's
 Sermon Last Night.

The GRAPHIC is always glad to publish anything of an encouraging nature when it's people are down. cast or despondent. Last night the Rev. W. K. Penrod preached ser mon at the Baptist Church to large congregation which cannot but serve to cheer up our people. Itwas both practical and philosophic, and comes as ray of light in these dark and gloomy times.
 His Text was, "Casting All Your Care upon Him, for He Careth for You''-Peter, 5-7, which he divided into two subjects, as follows:
 Cast your Anxiety on the Lord Every Heart has it's Athletics.
 The question with philosophers is not how many troubles have we. but wisdom to classify and know what to do with them.
 l. Imaginary troubles.
 We too often try to climb the mountain before we get to ii. We imagine all sorts of evils Y
 Our financial troubles are largely imaginary. Oh, says one, you never saw cotton at , cents before. Yes 1 have. l bought cotton at II cents and sold it at , cents. You can do that once and you won't forget it. In the spring of 1881 cotton went as low as 6 cents. In December, 1882, l sold cotton at 6 cents. Tn the spring of 1883 I sold it as low AZ cents; at that time meat was IS cents per pound. People said cotton will never go back to the old price. Calamity howlers were all around us then as now. But we are better off now, for debts have been con tracted with the expectation of the price being cents than when they ex- pected 10 cents. Meat then was IS cents, now 10. We got through alright then; so will we now. We trouble ourselves about these things all to no purpose. We simply lei the devil make a joke Us.

Harry. lncog is a farce, but it is Il clean and wholesome farce, and keeps the house i'll Il roar of laughter all the while 1t is being played. There are twin brothers, one u man of family, and the other the fiance of a beautiful girl. The girl drops u picture of her lover and it is found by u young man who thinks it u good sample for q disguise to adopt in visiting his own home and gaining the consent of his father for the hand of the parents ward. There are thus three men exactly alike and they get awfully mixed up in the play. Neither knows of the existence of the other, and this makes 1t all the funnier. Matters are cleared up when the three men are brought to sani- tarium under the belief that they are insane, and, of course, all ends well. MT. Charles Dickson is, indeed, q clever comedian, and makes the most of q clever role. He is admirably supported by Mir. George W. Barnum, an old-time actor, wbo makes great hit as the wrathy father. Miss Lillian Burkhardt Is q graceful young ac tress and pleases the audience. Al the parts were, ill fact, done fairly well and the evenings performance
