FARMERS ALLIANCE IN SESSION
Resolutions Passed De%nOuncing the
Issue of Bonds.

The Supreme Council of the National
Farmers Alliance and Industrial Union
met in annual convention at Raleigh, y.
c., Tuesday. The hall in which the meet
ings are held showed, among other fea.
lures of interest. u large picture of l.. l..
Polk, the first president of the organiza-
ton, and under whose leadership it made
it's greatest progress and eXerted it's great
est influence.
United States Senator-elect Marion
Butler, president of the National Ali
ance, called the council to order and pre-
scented Mayor Badger, who delivered the
address of welcome. The Mayor, in his
remarks, referred to efforts of a malig-
nant character to create prejudice be-
tween the laborers of the city and the la
borers Of the country, and hoped that the
influence of the alliance might be direct
ed toward a cessation of all such schemes
President MOwborne, of the North Caro-
lima State Alliance, welcomed the council
on behalf of the State. Responses were
made by H. l.. Loucks, of South Dakota,
ex-president of the organization, and l.
e. Dean, of New York.
AT the evening meeting of the council
the following resolutions on the currency
question were adopted:
Whereas, 1t is currently reported that
another bond issue has been determined
upon by the President; and
Whereas. In our opinion existing stat
ute laws do not authorize such issue,
neither do present emergencies require
it; and
Whereas, The power is now reposed
in the general government to meet such
pressing contingencies by the plain terms
of existing laws; therefore,
Resolved. That this national council
of the Farmers Alliance and Industrial
Union, in regular annual session assem-
bled, enter our solemn and most earnest
protest against such issue.
Resolved, That instead. the admins
tratiOn be urged to employ the option al
lowed by law and pay out silver as well
as gold when coin is demanded for the
treasury notes.
"Resolved, That if this does not end
the present emergency, the government
be requested to issue no~n-interest bearing
full legal tender treasury notes"

THE ROBIN AS A PET.

Easy 20 Raise and Well Worth the
Trouble.
The robin seems to be one Of the nat
ural companions Of man, and is easily
tanned. The best way is to raise tho
robin by hand. This is done very easily.
In the spring, when robins are hatch
ing, it Is not at all difficult to find n
nest containing young. Select from
the nest n or two birds, but don't
take all; that would be robbery. 1t is
best to wait until the young birds are
nearly ready to fly before removing
them, but it Is better to take them whep
too young than too old. If you are Il
lover Of birds, and Observant, you will
see that the old birds are constantly
bringing food to their young. Count
the times that either parent brings Il
worm. The result will astonish you.
1t will be found that the young are
enormous eaters, ready to eat every
two or three minutes from daylight un-
til dark. Many u boy or girl has taken
IL young robin to raise, and failing TO
keep it alive has never realized that it
died from lack Of food. You cannot
to resort to stronger food that Is easier
to procure. This may be found in raw
beef. The quantity Of fresh meat 4
young robin will consume in a day is
astonishing. 1t will not be long before
you notice that your pet shows a dispo-
sition to peck at things. perhaps pick
ing up small pieces of gravel. This is
IL sign that It Is time to change his diet.
To reconcile him to the new diet re-
quires patience. The mOcking bird
indicates a desire to be fed roll up n
pill of the ground stuff and drop it into
his mouth. He will object and may
throw it out. If he does, let him get Il
little hungrier and then try again and
moisten the pellet in water. Hunger Is
Il great teacher, and it will not be long
before the bird is helping himself from
his food dish, which should be kept
where he can get at it. The bird must
be supplied with fresh water. Young

easily drop some from the end Of your
finger or a quill into his mouth.
If you are successful in raising the

ability, m his training. 1t Is
