cLARK's ADDRESSES.

We are in receipt of acopy of the
addresses Of Judge Walter Clark, pub
hshed and for sale by A. Williams &
Son, of Raleigh, N O., (price % cents
IE is a pamphlet of III pages, and EN-
braces only the literary work of its re
mRrkable author in the ptriod from
April to July, 1897.
Much Of the book we have read be
fore IN the magazines, but it has repaid
US TO go over it again and with increas-
ed admiration for the forceful reasOn
ing, the deep, varied and accurate
learning, the underlying patriotic fire,
the broad human sy mpatby, the sturdy
protests against outrage and wrong.
which mark every page, nay, every
paragraph.
A pronounced gold bug lawyer said
to us the o5ner day: I'm be hanged, il
Clark is not the most popular man in
the State and I can't understand il for
the life Of me, when every reaso is to
the contrary" We said to our friend
that his mistake lay in thinking the
people would now vote for men simply
because they were good fellows, that
good fello VS." were out of fashion and
the desire of the people was for efec
tive agents to carry out great purposes,
and when they discovered this efec
tiveness they cared little for the stage
accompaniment Of ante bellum poll
ticiRns.
Whether we spoke a parable or not
our friend agreed to the explanation
and found in it some reason for the
wonderful hold Judge Clark has upon
the plain people. Farmers Friend.

tary Treasurer, Chaplain, and a large
majority Of other officers.
Every Sub. Alliance was represented
by delegates. After our usual rotine
OF business, we proceeded with our
work. Our Secretary read some arri.
cles from The PROGRESSIVE FARMER,
by request of the State Executive
Committee.
RESOLVED, That we change the time
of holding our county meetings from
the 2nd Thursday in January. April,
July and October to the Srd Thursday
in each month mentioned above, be-
cause our County Secretary fails to
get some documents from our State
officers in time to be read in our County
Alliance, owing to the slow mail fa-
cilities.
Joseph Hodges was elected and
bonded as our county business agent.
Our county lecturer addressed the Al
lance, and insisted on all the mem
bers to go to work with energy for
the Alliance cause.
He advised all to work hard for the
up-building of THE PROGRESSIVE FAR
MER, and requested all members to
work on a non-partisan plan and try
to place our organic alton where it
once was, and to insist that farmers
and laborers everywhere subscribe for
THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER. Thus they
become posted as TO their duty, and
becom ne able to think for themselves,
and not to tie themselves to Office
seek ers and money changers.
A lee cure was delivered by u Wor
thy President, Bro Russ, along the
same line. Lot every brother try to
bring in a new member at every Sub
meeting. That would show our faith
by our works.
Bro D w. Hodges lectured to the
interest of the Alliance by requesting
that our obligations and pledges be read
at every county meeting, believing that
it would bring every member nearer to
his duty.
Over half Of the Alliances in the
Alliance in the county we're paresent
Everything worked harmoniousIy and
the meeting was very interesting to all
There being no other business of i'm
portance to transact, the Alliance adj
~journed until the 3rd Thursday in
April, 1898. if not called sooner by
our President.
Yours fraternally,
JOSEPH HODGES,
County Secretary treas.

H caILD's GUIDE.

A few days ago I found a little boy,
about eight years Of age, in one of
these seats at the children's inquiry
meeting, sobbing aloud. He said:
"What is the matter, my dear little
feIlowH"
"Oh, deRrl I'm lostl I'm lost and I
can't find Jesusl On, my wicked
hearth How can I get a new neartQ l
have been so wickedI l have never
loved Jesus at all. I thought I loved
Him, but now I know I never did.
Will He take met
'O1, yes" I said. HE says, Him
that cometh unto me I will in no wise
cast OUT"
/ tried to tell him how the Lord Jesus
died for sinners just like him. At
length we kneeled down in one of the
pews. and in a low tone, we prayed
together, and the little boy asked
God to take away his wicked heart,
and help him to love the Savior; and
that little boy, I believe, found Jesus
to be 1.-The child's Guide to heaven"
and he is here today, with a smiling
face and q singing heart.-E. Payson
Hammond, in Conversion Of Children.

CHARITY.

Written for The PROGRESSIVE Fdrmer.l
How nUIselessly the snow comes
down. You see it, feel it, but hear it not
Il is ike true charity. Charity makes
no noise in the world, but distributes
wherever there is poverty. A person
VINO does good OUT of pure benevo-
lence never spreads it abroad in the
circle in which he moves, Oh makes it
public through a newspaper.
Who hath charity9
st. James says: If any man see to
be religious, and bridleth not his
tongue, but deceiveth his own heart,
this mans religion is vain" "Purere
ligion is TO visit the fatherless and
widows in their affection, and TO keep
himself unspotted from the world"
So many people when they do a good
deed, want the world to know it, and
be praised for it. If we get praise for
the good we do in this world we will
not get i5 in the next. We should do
our work as silently as possible, aud
We should always do our duty, whether
it il appreciated or not. Some people
will say, when talking of doing some
deed of kindness, They will never
thank me for it." But there is One
that knows, and We are sure to get the
reward some time.

THE MINISTRY OF Joy.
ANNIE r SMITH
HiIlsboro, N. @.

In this age, when the consciousness
of the SORROW of men and of the per
lis of society is so deep and poignant,
there ia great need of the joy which
lies in the heart Of the Gospel. We
need to get rid Of the primitive idea Of
q God jealous of human prosperity,
and to reverse our feeling that sorrow
is the normal portion of man. Joy is,
in fact, the normal inheritance of every
SON of God, and sorrow is but q means
of education and growth. ut ia a
a great, solemn thing to be happy"
says Bishop Brooke, when all happi-
ness means a loving God. We think
of SORROW only as serious and deep.
We go tinkling the be ls that ought to
ring with litsnies," For happiness is
the inevitable fruits OF faith. The
great humorists have all been serious
men; for humor must play against a
background of serious thought. In
like manner happiness is possible to
those alone who have looked the sor
rows of life in the face, and mastered
them by accepting them. To all who
know that I'd is in his world, joy is
not only a privilege, it is also q duty
for joy breeds joy, and q happy face
on q dark path is the best evidence to
those who look upon it that there is
sunshine beyond The ChurchmRn.

appoints a negro to some office, the
goldbugs, railroad and Ransom ma

howl and blame the Populists for it.
They didn't raise a howl when Mr. Cleve
land kept that negro in the Fayette
vile postofice at the request of Demo
Gratis, because the negro helped them
to manipulate the elections in Cum
berland county. If it is right, or was
right for the Democrats to give negroes
office for political purposes and In or
der to continue to get their aid in po-
litical elections, it is more right for the
