AT ONCE.

The State Alliance decided we must
have a shoe factory, tannery and har-
ness making, etc, and we can make
no hing by delay. If we are going to
have it, and we are, the thing to do is
for every Allianceman in the State to
take stock at once. The reasons why
we should start the wheels to going by
November 1st are multitudinous; the
reasons why we should not, do not
exist. Then why put it off lOnger2 The
plan, in the main, has been adopted it
is to be an Alliance enterprise pure and
simple; every Allianceman, however
poor, is interested, and the poorer the
more deeply should he feel interested.
Since the question Of a factory was
first sprung, more than q year ago, the
actual nG9fts on the shoes purchased,
by Alliencemen in this State, have
been more than enough to start a fac
tory that would make all the shoes we
want. This does not include the profits
and freights ard other charges by the
middlemen, through whose hands their
shoes have come TO is Nine tenths of
our brethren have not yet contributed.
Let the readers of The PROGRESSIVE
FARMER bestir themselves az d see if
We cannot get the money in and the
wheels q whlrling by November 1st.
We can do it. We must do it. Yes,

Total earn'gs, $657, OSS.65 G568, $500 81. rs 593 IS
The above statement is important IN
showing what chance we would have
in a struggle for existence as an indie
pendent line. We would start out
minus the through earnings, for none
of it Is put on or taken off al any OF
our stations, and we would probably
lose between one third and n half of
the local earnings, which would be
caused Oy the Southern Railway Com
pany having roads into Durham,
Greensboro, Salisbury and Charlotte,
which would leave our total earnings
at about the same as we now receive aa
rental
To De taken into consideration with
this, is the fact that the old lease of the
North Carolina Railroad permitted the
Richmond and Danviile Railroad Com
pauy, It's successor or assigns, to return
the North Carolina Railroad property
IN a like condition to that in which it
received 1t In 1871, and gave the lessee
four months at the end of tho 1aase to
remove all bettermente.
The railroad equipment of 1871 is
midway between the railroad eonip-
ment Of to day and the stage coach and
road wagon OF old times. Won can
readily see that it would take several
hundred thousand dollars 70 renIace
oetterments and equip the road for
competitive service.

RETURNED TO THE GOLD STANDARD
Important Action Recently Taken by
the Chilean GOyernment.

Important Action Recently Taken by
the Chilean Government.
Senior Cana, the Chilean minister, has re-
ceived a cablegram from Senior Fernandez,
the Chilean minister of finance, saying that
after seventeen years of the regime of pa
per money, Chile has returned with salts
faction and confidence to the gold standard
The resumption of specie payments by
Chile promises to furnish some interesting
less ons on coinage legislation Reports from
there state that the government tried to
familiarize the people with the new forms
of silver and gold coin by getting out a
preliminary issue. These were quickly ex-
changed for the old paper money, but as
soon as the novelty had worn off the peo-
pie We're glad to go back to the more con-
venient form of paper currency. Another
embarrassment occurred when the govern
nent found that coin was being exported in
great quantities. The new specie payment
law fixed the ratio between the metals at
Al to l. This ignored the current ratio of
the remainder of the world, that in the
London market at the present time, being
about 81 to l. AS result of this difference
gold bullion began TO flow out of Chile at
an alarming rate. The silver coins were al
so exported, because the law provided that
they should contain All grains of pure sill
yer, which made them worth intrinsically
more than the current silver dollar. Thus
gold and silver were being drained out of
Chile, SO that the government ordered the
mints to stop further coinage. Under the
law the mints began again last Saturday,
and there is much interest to learn what
the result will be of this latest step.
