FROM JACKSON COUNTY.

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
Our county meeting was held at

full delegation from each Sub Alliance
in the county was present The follow

year:

made for any Alliance. They not only
represent the leading men of the ALI

men of our county. Our Alliance is
growing, and with the county officers
we now have, is destined to continue
to grow. The different Sub Alliances
in the county say they were very care
full in selecting their officers and put in
their very best men. This being the
case what can hold us down9 The
members of our county meeting from
the different parts of the county were

cause, and say that the grand Order.

WEALTH VS.. DESTRUCTION.
Two Methods of Concentrating Wealth
One Destructive, the Other a
Benefit to the Inter-
est of All.

MR.. EDIToR:-There are two systems
OF concentrating wealth. The first is
accomplished by farming out the me-
dunn of exchange, and the second by
the concentration of capital to build
railroads, factories, etc. The concen-
tratlon OF money into the hands of the
creditor class paralyzes business,
shrlnks values, produces poverty and
crime. The concentration of capital to
build factories, etc., increases our
ability to produce wealth and correct
system of distribution will make them
a blessing. Concentration of money
into the hands of the few shrinks values
and the concentration of capital TO
build factories increases values by in
creaslng our ability to produce and
consume. The concentration of wealth
through the accumulative power of in
terest on money destroys values, and
the concentration of capital to build
huge concerns is the life of nation. If
we had an economical system that
would utilize all our force, place fair
prices on our products, in a few years
the output of wealth to be distributed
annually would exceed eight hundred
dollars per capita.

THa CoxEY MOVEMENT.
Various Views on the Question--Dr.
Strongs Sayings.


Mr.. EDITOR:-I have no sympathy
whatever with the ''Coxey movement,
as it is called. I think it unwise, use
less and abortive. Bnt it is amusing
as we'll as disgusting to hear what some
people think of it. For instance: One
poor fellow editing a paper away out
in Arizona Territory declares that he
predicted long ago that the outgrowth
of the Populist party would be some
thing like the ''Coxey movement, and
now he is congratulating himself that
the fulfllment of his far fetched pre-
Gictions prove him prophet indeed.
Again, here in our own State, even
in the city of Raleigh, the editor of a
religious paper, among other things,
charges the ''Coxey movement with
having "tickled the fancy of Prince
Albert, of England, William of Ger
many, and Alexander, of Russia, to
such an extent as to produce many a
laugh in the sleeve, with many a re-
assuring chuckle, and with fulsom
signs of relieved suspense"
Surely this was crime enough of
itself. But the ''Coxey movement"
does not stop it's terrible work here, for
it goes further. ''It tends to strengthen
and encourage monarchy 1t gives to
Europeans the hope that we will have
to import a king and made it possible
for monarchy to say that people can
not govern themselves.
AS have thought of these utterances
1 have decided to say something about
these crimes(O which the "Coxey
movement" has committed. The first
thing propose to notice is making it
possible for monarchy to say that peo-
pie cannot govern themselves" The
very fact of the ''Coxey movement" is
proof that the people are not govern
ing. Had the people of the United
States been ruling, governing or direct
ing public affairs, as they could and
should, the ''Coxey movement" would
never have been. Indeed, there would
have been no cause for 1.-THE cause
would never have existed.
Crime second. 'Giving Europeans
hope that we would have to import a
king" To this 1 would reply. They
need not entertain any hope along this
line, for we have a plenty of kingly
aspirants in this country, and as
good(O material as Europe can offer.
Indeed, we have king already in the
person of Grover the great; and we
have a house of lords, too. Did not
Coxey go to petition the throneS
This is the real cause that the spirit
of which the ''Coxey movement" was
born, has focused so rapidly and cul
minated as of late.

On farm where there is ample
range, poultry sh ould include not only
hens, but turkeys, geese, ducks and
even guineas. The turkeys and guineas
are disposed to wander over large
areas, while geese and ducks will thrive
on small pasture lot. 1t must not be
overlooked that the largest proportion
of meat sold off the farm, in the shape
of turkeys, geese and ducks, cost the
farmer little or nothing, and if some
knowledge could be gained in regard
to the actual cost, it would be shown
that the receipts are nearly all profit,
and this should encourage farmers to
increase their stock.

The wedding of Miss Elise G. Elder
kin, daughter Of Major and Mrs. w. A.
Elderkin, q. S. A., and DR.. Berne b.
Gallaudet of New York, was solemnized
Yesterday afternoon. The ceremony was
performed at st. Johns Episcopal
church by the Rev. B. w. K. Tayler,
the rector. 1t was long before o'clock,
the hour announced for the ceremony,
that the pretty church began to filled by
large numbers of the most prominent
people of the city, and the four ushers,
E. K. Kellam, Marion Wigmore VI. L.
Graf and j. HI. Slauson. were kept busy
showing the crowds to seats.
The interior of the church was hand
sonely decorated, the effect being in
white. Across the room screen was q
rope OF white carnations, gathered In
concentric circles. Over the top was u
half circle of delicate grass. The altar
was banked in carnations. The pews
were alternately decorated with lilies
and carnations, tied with white satin
ribbon. The sides of the church were
also lined with palm leaves.
It was shortly after o'clock that the
bridal party entered the church, the
wedding march from Lohengrin being
played upon the organ. First came the
groom and the BRIDES mother, then
Mrs. George Wilson. the BRIDES sister,
with j. H. Slauson, one OF the ushers.
The party proceeded to the pews re-.

upon the arm OF her father, who wore
the full uniform of major in the
United States army. The bridesmaids
were Misses Grace Cole and Ludovici.
The bride wore simple gown OF white

PROFESSOR WILEY, of the chemistry
bureau in the department of agriculture,
is lecturing in the principal eastern
cities upon trade frauds and the adul-
teration of articles OF food used In every
day life. He dwells largely upon the In.
crease In the manufacture Of glucose in
all the larger eastern cities. an article
having no food value of its own, and
used wholly for purposes Of aduIteration.
In France and Germany there are laws
to prohibit the use Of tin cans which
contain over two per cent OF lead, bat
in the United States there ia no ssch
restriction and it is not uncommon to
find tin plate in use in some csnneries
which contains over 10 per cent OF lend.
Add to this the solder which sometimes
protrudes through the seams of q can,
and you have the foundation OF fruit
full fountain for generating poisonous
acids. The imported French peas are
always noticeable for their bright green
color, which he accounts for by their
being cooked in copper kettles before
being sealed hermeticslly. Professor
Wiley thinks there Should be con-
gressional legislation on this subject,
in the interest OF the public health.

The continuance OF work on the
Southern Paci6c's coast line is good
news to our people. When ii is COM
pleted, the travelling public will have
their choice OF routes to the metropolis,
and between May aud November the
coast line will carry nearly twice as
many passengers as the old line through
the red-hot valley of the San joaquin.
AS scenic route. changing at every
moment like kaleidoscope, the coast
line will commend itself to all the num-

Southern Pacific officials that they should
have pushed this long needed work
ahead in spite OF the financial difficulties
of the past twelve months.

delegates elected to the Republican

and is assisting to carry the outer works

send Markham to the senate in place of
Perkins. This is we'll laid plan and
the doughty colonel is q shrewd manager
but there have been occasions on which
''dead things would crawl" as the late

smug confidence with which the Repub'

that all they have to do is to name q

many months, and the Democracy has
ample time to organize victory before
