BRO. JOHNSON is SHOWN.

Dear Sir:-Bro. J. J. Johnson
wants to know what it is we want
put right at the State and national
convention. He says [ should have
named some things. Now, if Bro.
Johnson has been reading The Jeffer-
sonian and don't know what that is,
I think he is too ignorant to pray for.
He ought to know, also, that I am
not the only one that made that re-
quest in The Jeffersonian.
Bro. Johnson, there have been
grave charges made against some of
our leading men in the Union, and
published in The JeffersOnian, and
and they have not dared to come out
publicly, like they were accused, and
make any denial or explanation in
any way. Bro. Johnson, how does it
suit you to have bank-wrecking
lawyer for counsel for the Farmers
Union? Brother, I think you had
better post up some yourself before
you go to jumping on some one else.
Just such men as you are would let
some Smart Alex smash the Farm
ers' Union like Lon Livingston did
the Farmers Alliance. You invite
me back into the fold; you must have
had one of John Lees circular let
tiers. I am still member of Liberty
Hill Local No. 1919, and none of my
Local brethren have taken any eX-
ceptions to anything I have done or
said Now, Bro. Johnson, I think if
you will get the mote out of your
own eye and sweep around your own
door before you jump on your neigh
Dor, it would be more becoming in
you. The day I got the paper with
your article in it l received word
that my brother was dying, and I
have not had the chance to pay you
any attention until now.

A CHALLENGE TO JOHN LEE.

Dear Sir:-I noticed some time
back of some criticising John Lees
method of raising the dust and your
comment on same, and l want to say
that is not the worst feature of it. I
have been waiting for some one to
ring John Lee up in court and find
him guilty. | will challenge John
Lee, or any other Union City official,
to prove that the raise in dues are
being distributed as we voted them
to be- John Lee told us to let out
siders alone and get our proof on the
inside and bring it up, and he would
give us satisfaction. We have writ
ten him, and he will dodge, and when
we write him again he will treat us
with contempt and not answer us at
all.
I have the amendment that the
Farmers Union of Georgia voted on
to raise the dues telling just how
they would be distributed, and any
Union brother can get a copy by
writing me at Cuthbert, Ca, enclos-
ing stamp for reply. Lee assured us
that if we voted the raise in dues
that the State officials would use
their part in sending capable men
and now he is calling for money out
Of our Local and county treasures,
and if we don't furnish it we get no
benefits at all, Notwithstanding the
State gets 20 cents instead of IL
cents, and, gentlemen here is the
point: Lee will call enough State
meetings to keep our treasury drain
ed and the people, after raising dues
for certain purpose, are not going
down in their ckets for any more
as the IT',,' = City bosses will give us
nothStIlfn return, and we will never
. hGW where the raise in dues went to.
About all the lecturers we ever get
are men sent around begging stock for
the Commercial Implement Co., and
a few other things, and sometimes
their expenses are greater than the
stock subscribed. Brethren, what is
there in the Union for poor man the
way it is drifting? If Local of
poor men want to buy some farm
tools through the Union, they can't
buy unless they own stock in the
commercial factory, or else pay the
retail price at Union City, and the
freight added, which makes it cheap
er to go to his home merchant to
buy, and still these poor peoples
dues are going to help pay the State
business agent good wages to assist
them in buying, and they will abuse
us if we don't patronize what the
Union City bosses call our own insti-
tuition.
If John Lee had the good of the
Union at heart he would resign, but
it seems he is bent on tearing it up.
Yours truly,
Cuthbert, Ga. UNION MAN.

" Remember the Alamo

The siege of the Alamo was one of
the most picturesque struggles for
liberty that has taken place on the
American continent. Unwilling to be
dominated by the Mexicans, the Tex
ans valiantly resisted and finally sue
ceeded in throwing off the yoke, and
gained their independence and held it
for nine years, under five different
presidents, until annexed to the Uni
ted States.
The two most important actions in
the Texas revolution were the siege of
the Alamo and the battle of San ia
cinto. One hundred and forty-four
Texans taking refuge in the Alamo
in San Antonio, an old Spanish build
ing combining church and a fort,
were besieged by force of 1000
Mexicans. The siege of the Alamo
began on February 20, 1886. 1t
lasted eleven days, when it was taken
by storm and every Texan killed. In
the State House of Austin, the capt.
tai city Of Texas, on a monument
made of stones of the ruins of the
mission fort, are inscribed the names
of the men whose death gave the
Anglo-American race eternal reason
to Remember the Alamo"
It was the battle of San Jacinto
which finally settled the conflict in
favor of the Texans, and never was
seen more brave dash for liberty
than the little Texan band put up in
this fight, rallying the columns with
the cry, Remember the Alamo"
On February 20 Santa Ana, with
his Mexican army, had arrived at
San Antonio. On the morning of the
23d, he called upon Col. Travis to
surrender, but was answered by
cannon shot. The Mexican general
at once hoisted the red flag as a sig
nal that no quarter would be given.
The Alamo had been prepared. to re-
sist any attack except from artillery.
The second in command was no other
than James Bowie, the inventor of
the long bladed "bowie-knife, used
by the hunters and desperadoes of
the plains. Davy Crockett was an
other of the heroes of the Alamo.
The final attack was made on
March 6-Sunday Travis, who was
struck on the head, had fallen beside
his gun at the northwest corner.
Bowie was precipitated from a scat
IOlQlnS ny the Walls, anu Wdo uh1O10
to move from the bed where he had
been laid in an upper room of the
convent barracks. He was still able,
however, to die as he had lived, firing
the pistols which had been placed by
his side before he was finally run
through with bayOnet.
The church was the last to be
taken. It's defenders, too, fell back
inch by inch, fighting till each man
was slain. Davy Crockett was among
the last to fall. In less than an hour
all was over. Thus persisted, to the
last man, the defenders of the Alamo.
There were left to tell the tale only
two widowed American women, with

After
la Grippe

Il had suffered several weeks
with LaGrippe. Had pains in
my head and eyes. 1t felt as
though there was a heavy weight
on the top of my head, until it
seemed that my brain would
burst. I was SO nervous that
| could not rest or sleep. When
I dozed off I would awake with
a sudden jerking of my whole
body. DR.. Miles Nervine, Heart
Remedy and Nerve and Liver
Pills cured me. A number of
friends have since realized the
same benefits"

The after effects of LaGrippe
are often more serious than the
disease, as it leaves the system
in a weakened condition that
invites more serious troubles,
such as pneumonia, etc.
