ond to none in the State they are also
now ready to tan hides, Of all kinds,
upon the most improved process. This
magnificent Farm, Of two hundred
acres, O tannery plant, complete i'm all
its departments, and the shoe plant,
which is said to be one of the largest
and best in the South. With a good
stock of raw material on hand, and 80
far as they have gone everything is
paid for, but I learn they are now at
the end of their row, and all this out
lay is now standing idle for want of a
little ready cash TO run the enter
prise successfully. Now there is about
eight thousand dollars, belonging to
the State Alliance, laid away as a
backing fund, and for the life of us we
can't see why it would not be a good
investment to use a part, or all of that
money, to put this enterprise into sue
cessiul operation. Now we don't offer
any criticism upon the custodian of
this fund, but on the other hand Maj.
Graham, is to be commended for the
safe manner in which he has handled,
and taken care of this fund from the
beginning.
But let us take his salary, which has
been one thousand dollars annually
from the time the fund was first raised
until the meeting of the last State Ali
ance, which reduced is to about seven
hundred dollars, and la q few years
longer salary will exhaust the principle
and there will be nothing tangible left
to work the object for which this fund
was raieed, while If the necessary
amount of this fund was used to start
this much needed enterprise, we believe
in the course Of twelve months the
money invested would yield a hand
some profit, and the members of the
Alliance all over the State would re,
ceive great benefit therefrom; and I'm,
til some plan is materialized through
which the members can realize some
financial benefits, we are fearful that
our noble cause will languish and grow
beautifully less. But with a little finan-
cial aid that this fund would give, a
new impetus would be given to our
Order, and all hands would rally to
our Headquarters at Hillsboro, and an
influence would out that would remind
all our old members of the good old
days Of yore.
Respec tfully,

DEAR BRETHREN:-Blank reports to
Sub Secretaries were mailed last week.
If any Secretary should fail to receive
his by the time he reads this, he should
write me at once and others will be
sent.
Let me urge upon every Alliance
member to attend his County meeting
in July. When / wrote you last fin
May, I was then in hopes that your
shoe factory would be in operation by
this time. I regret to say that it, ia
not in operation and I see no proba-
billy of it being put in operation unless
the State Alliance at it's meeting in
August shall say it must start. I may
be mistaken, and I hope I am. It is
of the utmost Importance that every
member be present at the County
meeting and the following question
be discussed: "Shall our enterprise at
Headquarters near Hillsboro be opera.
ted, or shall the property be sold?"
There is no use in making promises.
Something must be done about this
matter. 1t should be discussed in all
it's phasesaRnd your delegate to the
State Alliance should be instructed to
do what you wish in the matter. The
property is ours; ia paid for, partly
from the "SGcred Fund" partly from
individuals subscriptions, and partly
from profits of Business Agency. No
better property in the State of North
Carolina Tor the purposes contemplated
by purchases; N more desirable prop
erty could be obtained for an agricul
tural organization; but this matter
should be determined at ~once-either
to push the factories, ifit should take
eUery dollar of the "Sacred Fund" to
do it, thereby restoring confidence,
hope and life into our organization, or
it should be sold for What 1T WiH

tFrom the Evening News. Detroit, Mioh.)

Using as q nucleus for his investlga-

daughter of Frank B. Trout, well
known in Detroit, Mich, real estate
circles. had been saved, q reporter
called on MI. Trout at hls~Cmce, LOB
Griswold Avenue. Mr. Trout showed
some hesitancy in giving his opinion
for publication, but finally said: "Clr-
cumstances and a fathers love for his
child forced me TO try DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, but not until
the whole medical profession had ex,
hausted their skill. At the age OF
fourteen we had to take daughter
from school owing to her health. Be
fore this she had been in the best Of
health, happy andin the best of spirits.
She began to fall away and become
pale and languid. She was so weak
that she would fall down in a faint
every time she tried to walk unsup-
ported. The best Of physicians at
tended her, but she continued to grow
weaker and seemed to be gradually
fading away.
"When she was fifteen she weighed
only ninety pounds, and the doctors
said it was a. amia. Several physi-
clans said she might outgrow it, but
that it would no doubt terminaf

help her, and We concluded oursei Ies,
we must lose our child, as she was
growing weaker every day.
I'VE had tried all the we'll known

I boughta box of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People and took them
home. That day I read Of a case about
the same as my daughters, and decided
to give them a trial, though I must
confess I did not have much faith. Be
fore she had taken all of the first box
we noticed a change for the better.
