KEELEY S III -CHLORIDE OK GOLD TREATMENT CUIUS THE IIA111T. I arrived home from Dwight Monday night November 2. I had been jjono just oue month, five days of which I ipent in Chicago on my way home. I cannot answer for all id' Doctor Kecley's patients but I can for one of them. Voir can inform your readers as a seipiul to my letters written from Owight that lam a cured man, saved, youtni'Jit say. The effect of the Kcelcv cure is not like that produced by "Bwcaringoffaud sticking to it." If a man quits of his own accord, be simply breaks a habit but does not cure the disease which that habit has produced. This disease has the fatal feature of locating; itself in a man's brain or nervous system without his being aware ot its existence. A pa tient denies that he has consumption and believes he is getting well on the day he dies. Much the same with a man who drinks Other men are drunkards but he isn't. The Keeley remedy is no re spjeter of whims. It operates with pre cisely the same effect upon the man who gets drunk but denies it, as it docs upon the man who gets druuk ami wakes the town with his riot. Both men will shake hands upon a common platform inside of thirty days. Doctor Keeley himself is no respecter of persons and the millionaire and the cabman must fall into the same Hue or get left. I followed the rules implicitly and never missed a shot. The incredulous will say, flow do you know you are cured, and the scoffer will say, Oh fudge, he will be drinking ajjain when a goml opportunity presents itself. Nonsense! I know I am cured because the desire has been removed which it never really is when a man quits of his owu accord. People who have no inberite I or cultivated desire for liquor don't count in this discussion, for they know nothing anotit it and their testimony is worth no more than a drinker'c promise to reform, which a Judge on the bench, temporarily sojourning at Dwiglit, said, in his town were not worth five ceDts a shipload. I am just as likely to com uicncc drinking aguin as I am to com mence jumping off the bridges as a daily diversion. To a Keeleyite the one seems about as sensible as the other. People have asked me if I thought this cure was permanent, to last a life time. I answer ys, I think so because I have confidence in the doctor and he told uie i tj.it tno only way 1 could mange this new physical condi'ion was by using hIcoIioI If the desire returns at any time I shall take another course but ti Ui confident that I am all right. A uiau is not proud of the necessity that prompts him to ;o to Doctor Keeley, but he cau be proud of the result of such a visit. As a matter of course I feel di Rcr ent about this matter than I, did three weeks ago, and I can see now that there if do stigma attached to the going; the stigma, if there be one, to the man who fee's as though he needs this . treatment, is the staying at home. I shall be only too glad to give anyone information founded upon my personal experience and will go down to Dwight with anyone who wants to go, and make him feel at h'lnin tb first, day. At the end of three weeks ho will be ready to extend a help ing hand to some other man, who just at present may be known iu his community as "a mighty nice fellow only he drinks." L. S.

Might of the nine district Alliance lecturers met President Butler and State Lecturer Bell iu Kaleigh this week to! map out the plan of work so that all would work in harmony. President Butler and Lecturer Bell had already organized the districts, and the district lecturer here had been regularly elected by their people. This was a meeting for consultation. It is the object that there shall be entire unity aud harmony of action, and that wisdom of all represent ing tho various sections of the State guide each one in his work in his own district. Each lecturer is held responsible for the condition of his distiict to be supervised in a general way by the President and Lecturer of the State Alliance. This meeting completed" die organization of tho lecture system which now consists of county bureaus (composed of lecturers of the sub-Alliances iu each county;) the district bureaus (composed of county lecturers of the various counties in tho district) and the State bureau (composed of the district lecturersand State lecturer.) t is through this agency that the Alli- iiuee will push its campaign of education throughout every section of the State, aud make its battle against the unjust encroachments of organized capital and mouopolies. Through such a perfect system as this seems to be it ought to be able to secure many reforms. It puts the State President- and State officers in elbow touch of every sub-Alliance iu the State. no partisan politics. The followiug resolution was unani mously adopted. It has the right ring, and acting iu conformity with these resolutions the Alliance will go forward day by day in increasing influence : Whereas, The publie generally seems to be greatly exercised over the supposed relation of the Alliance to political par ties aud partisan politics, therefore in order to make knowu the true position of the Alliance as we understand, and in order, further, that one expression may speak for each and all of us ou this matter, be it Resolved, That we, tho duly elected and authorized lecturers of the Alliance of the State, eomposiug the State lecture bureau, do unanimously set forth that the Alliance as an organization has uot and cannot have any connection whatever with any political party in a partisan seuse. ihat the Allrance cau never become a political party. That if any or all parties that do now exist or may hereafter exist were to en dorse in toto its demands and platform of principles, etc., the organization as a great educator ou economic lines mut still exist and remain intact, separate and dis tinctfrotu any and all party organizations whatever. With us, as an orgauizitiou. parties a e not an object nor an end. It is our mission to educate on th-t lines of truth, right aud justiee. It is for the individual as a citiz'ti, consultin his conscience guided by an cducau'd iutel lect, to choose the mcaus through whieh the end an honest an l just government can he attained.

THE JOINT ADDRESS ISSUED liY THE SPECIAL COMMITTEE APPOINTED AH THE ItESI'LT i)V THE CONr'ERENCK OK ALLIANCE AND NON ALLIANCE DEMOCRATS. At a recent conference of the Execu tive Committee of tho Democratic party, which was attended by many of the lead ing citizens from different sections of the State, and in which our present political condition, as a party, was discussed in a spirit of forbearance and conciliation, it was deemed wise to issue an address to the friends aud adherents of the party urging that same spirit shall enter into and control all our discussions and actions preparatory to and during tho great struggle of 1892. At this conference the undersigned were selected to prepare and issue the address, and we were especially enjoined to voice, as nearly as possible, the spirit of harmony and unity and loyalty to the Democratic pany which characterized the conference. It must be apparent to any thoughtful observer that there is a general depression in agriculture and a consequent feeling of dissatisfaction and unrest among those engaged in that pursuit, though the till ers of the soil are not the only ones who aro suffering from this general depression. This want of prosperity among the far niers has seriously affected the great mass of those engaged in other vocations; in fact but few have escaped its baleful in fluetice. Then we are common sufferers irour a common cause. If this bo true can there be any reason why we should not work together to remove this cause and drive from power its author? The real author of the grievances of which the people so justly complain, is the Republican party, which has admin istered the Federal government for the benefit of favored classes and against the interests of tho toiling masses of the American people. And we appeal to our fellow citizens of all vocations to stand shoulder to shoulder iu the fight we must make against this great adversa' 7- In the dark days following 1868 and 1869, we stood together against this same enemy in State affairs, and we eon quered. The lessons thcu learnedshould not be forgotten, and we expect them to bear fruit, if we do not mistake the temper and patriotism of our people. Let us not be guilty of the folly of wasting our strength and dividing our forces in uncompromising, acrimonious contentions among ourselves as to the best means of accomplishing a deliver auce trom tno evt s which now environ us and from the burdens which now weigh us down. Among these evils and burdens we will mention two about which it seems to us we can all agree aud from which we cannot hope to be delivered till we over throw the party which created them. The first of these is the inadequate supply of money iu the country and the want of better system for its distribution, so that it may be procurable, more easily and at 1 leas- nab . rates i tnttest; and the other l- Mie u. j ist and iniruensouie system ot T iriff T.uation. The former wo regard as tlii- cl'if'eauie nf i he stojoaiion in bus- iiipi.s, an.! the latt. r a powerful ul'y in rubbing ,i fliinl'tUKi uud l.ibwl' of'just ro wrds. fh.it th" nipply of currency I 1 1 i v ': fSt-ji-.

We affirm rht those evil: ;ire dit : t 'dl'sprin : of Republican leisla- j rion. ( Mb-r causes of ; enter or 1 i weight r.v be ii.-.-u"'1! for the present de; r I -i i:i ii'' '; ..'uaur1 mid other t.u suits; Inn they too, so as their oiigiu can be traced to legislation, must be charged to the same Republican party; for there has not been an hour in the last twenty Uvo years when that party did not con- ol one branch or other of Congress or ic Executive and thus hold an effectu al check at all times upon the power of tho Democratic party to give the people ief and redress by repealing vicious islation and enacting remedial measures; so that it cannot in fairness be said that the Democratic party is responsible for failing to do these things. In our opin ion the shortest practicable road to the I rediess of tho wrongs and evils which op press the country is through the complete triumph of the Democratic party, which is the party of the people, whose funda mental principles are in harmony with their interest. This committee, composed often Demo crats, five of whom belong to the Alliance) and five of whom do not, but all speaking the sentiments of the Democratic party, ynipathize with and unite in the stren uous demands of the people, uttered through the Farmers' Alliance; the var ious industrial organizations, and other wise for such thorough reform in tho financial system as will give to our peo ple a sound currency in sufficient abund ance and properly distributed, and relief from tho burdens of tariff taxation. As to the particular methods and plans by which these objects, desired by all true Democrats, are to be accomplished, it is but natural that there should be honest differences of opinion. One man may assign one cause for the general stag nation iu business and suggest a remedy which he believes to be a sovereign rem edy. Another man equally intelligent and honest may differ with him as to the real cause or the proper remedy to be ap plied. It is manifestly unjust to charge either of these men with dishonesty or comity to reform where reform is needed. Our friends must learn to discuss all questions concerning these matters in a spirit of fairness, goad will, and mutual confidence and esteem, within the party lines, and when the time for action comes unite upon such men and such measures as seem most likely to lead us to victory and to secure for the people such wise and needful reform in our national legis lation as shall have respect to the good of the who'.o people and shall not be for the benefit aud enrichtneut of the few. If we remain united aud determined, we may dislodge the Republican party from power aod in time work out these needful reforms, but if we divide up among onr solves it can but result in continuing this party in power aud thus perpetuating the evils of which we now justly complain. The unity of the Democratic party iu the wu Jle county is essential al- i t.) pro vent the enactment of the Force Bill which would forever destroy the freedom of elections, perpetuate the rule of the Republican party and its vicious Pleasur es, which have so oppressed the people, and ruin especially the South. WTe have reason to apprehend that this dangerous bill, which we all had hoped was dead, will be revived again and enacted into a law if, by our divisions, the lbpub'.icau party should obtain once more full con trol ol tho law-making power of the Fed eral Government. Theti too, we have so much at stake at home in North Co o liua From 1S71 to 1S91 our Slat t'.eoiH- lation has been wise and for the he.it interest of our people. From 1576 to 1891 thee wise laws havo been wisely administered, aud during all that, peiiod we have had n clean, pure, progressive administration of our home affairs; and we do not hesitate to say that tho State novornmont iven us bv the Detnoeraiio party is as near perfect as human institu tions chu well be inidj. It Wuu'id be tnadiKss in us to diviati up mo ng our selves and by this division turn our State government over to the party of 1868 and 1S69, and we thiuk to sow the seeds of disoord a id pr,i:u He division in the ranks of the Democrats of North Caro p!na, from whatever motive, would im perii the best int!r."' ifuio S.ir.e aud should bj a.' jiJjd oy a. 1 true rmin. In vi:W of tluso facts, aud of tho far- reaching cons-queuces of the great snig gle of 1892, we urge upon Democrats in every section of the State and of every shade of opinion to lay aside all feelings of prejudice and dis'nist, and to study and discuss every prosposition made for reform with an earnest desire to secure the best. Speaking by authority of tho State Executive Committee, we urge all our people to refrain from fault finding; wo condemn abuse aud vituperation in what ever quarter, exhort all to practice a pru dent and rational forbearance, and com mend to you the supreme virtue of char ity. Lat us concede to all, as we claim for all, the inalienable right of opinion. The monopolists aud their foster-father, the Republican party, will not loosen tho fetters with which they have bound us without a desperate struggle, and we cannot pleate them better than to waste our energies in fighting each other. Let us so demean ourselves now that we may be able to present an unbroken front to our common enemy when the time comes for action. Patriotism, country and home appeal to us for homony and promise the rich reward of unity. Ed. Chambers Smith, E. A. Move, Elias Carr, Wm. M. Robbins, A. Leazar, Thos. J. Jar vis, S. B. Alexander, H.
