''The swine breeding interest in this
State, as in the country at large, though
not considered the leading live stock in

ALLIANCE RUNS NO STORES.
State Business Agent IVeV a'hs
About the Reports at Cary

State Business Agent IveY, o. the
Farmers Alliance, said to reporter yes
terdav: "Anv rumor that the alliance
had Intended to establish stores in the
town of Cary was without foundation.
was not aware that such report ex-
listed until I learned it from you on
Monday. 1t is no part of Alliance econo-
my to engage in merchandising we nave
have been located in Raleigh ever since
our organization, and have not only
established a store, but on the contrary
have patronized the local merchants
whenever their goods and prices were
as favorable as we could get elsewhere,
freight considered.
''Stores calling themselves Alliance
have sprung up in many parts OF the
State, but they were always without the
announcement or sanction OF the , ate
Alliance. Such stores have sometimes
been owned and controlled by men not
members of the Alliance, and the name
used to catch the unwary. These stores
have in many instances been a positive
detriment to the Alliance cause. BY
undertaking to do business without
proper business methods many OF them
have failed, and then you newspaper
men would say the Alliance has failed. ,"
ST regret the false rumor which you
say existed around Cary, and can only
account for it lin one way: While men
slept, his enemy came and sowed tares
among the wheat and went his way:
"Your report to-day is not clear, how
ever, when you intimate that because OF
such rumor, the Alliance was driven out,
and then in the next paragraph say that
the property was bought for another
purpose.
.morrow's Caucasian will have the
following editorial on the Cary denoue-
ment:
at is well known in Alliance circles
that satisfactory at Cary, N. O., to be
owned and controlled by the Alliance
has been in prominent contemplation.
1t is known that the site including build
ing, lot and some machinery had been
contracted for-as far as contracts could
be made. The property, by reason of
there being minor heirs, had to be sold
at public auction, but the Alliance, the
heirs and the guardian for minor heirs
bad agreed as to the price and terms.
The property was exposed for sale on
Monday, the 14th inst The Alliance in
good faith offered s4,250, the price for
merly agreed upon with the heirs of the
estate. A capitalist was present, by
representative, and raised the Alliance
offer and of course took the property
This was his privilege.
1.-THE Alliance will be nothing daunted.
1t is able and determined to establish its
manufacturing enterprises Capital,
treachery and opposition cannot swerve
the Alliance from its purpose. An or
ganization, which hostile Legislature
in two whole years of determined de-
struction could not mar, will not be
effected by this ripple on the surface.
''There is other property in Cary and
there are other towns than Gary There
is no doubt but that the executive com
mittee of the Alliance will select another
site and push the shoe factory through
to completion. In the meantime let con-
tributors continue to forward their stock
to w. S. Barnes, Secretary and Treas
urer, Raleigh, N. c."
