Editor : Sometime since I made an appeal to my brother farm ers in behalf of ex-President Cleve land, citing his honesiy and inde pendency, his courage in the dis charge of duty, his broad statesman ship, and particularly his claims to the gratitude of the whole South, and especially of the Southern far mers. I am happy to say that this appeal met with a hearty response form every part of the South ; and I am more certain now than ever that my Allianco brethren do not feel that they have lost their manhood and independence, and that they intend to exercise, as in times pasb their own judgment about men aud measures. The only objections to that plea for Mr. Cleveland, that I have seen are two correspondents in the Pro gressive Farmer. One of them has ead me out of the Democratic par ty and the other out of the Alliance, and both in this summary ejectment have shown a spirit of bitterness which tramples in the very dust that iniunction of our Constitution, "To constantly strive to secure entire tur monyand good will among all man- iind, and brotherly love among ourelves.'" The Constitutution of my country guarantees to me freedom of thought and freedom of speech. The Constitution of the Alliance and the ritual give me a solemn pledge that there shall be no interference with my politics nor my religion. With this shield I can turn" all the shafts of malice that may be hurled at me. In that plea 1 attacked no man t belief. I impugned no man's mo tives, I indulged in no personalities. T simply appealed to the sense of iustice and right tLat all trueheart- d men possess. But one of my critics argues that I cannot support Mr. Cleveland and be a true Democrat, because he does not agree with his party about the coinage of silver. My first answer is that the only test of true Democ racy is its National platform. In that platform certain bread funda mental principles are iuii down, and an acceptance of the whole, or a greater part of tLetn, confers the title of Democrat, and that platform has never had a word in it about the coinage of silver. Therefore it is no test on that question. There is a difference betweeu principle and policy. Principle is the foundation, policy the super structure. The one is fixed, immov able : the other allows latitude and variety in detail. The principles of a party deal with the fuudamenta' ideas en which the State is founded, and must be stable. The policy of a party refers to the administration of Government, with the shifting needs of an advanciLg civilization. Now Mr. Cleveland, while standing on the broad, solid principles of De mocracy, and even while he wa8 the chief of the party, and head of the nation, expressed himfelf clearly, as be always does, on the policy of un limited silver coinage, and no one thought of reading him out of the party. On the contrary, bia party again made him its leader, aid the white voters of the nation endorsed him by a large majority. 'Ihere is no more reason for denouncing him now for the sentiments ot hit silver letter, than there was for denounce ing him tbeii for t; e same anti ments in his message. Again I say his letter was not di rected against a judicious coinage and circulation of silver, but against a certain Congressional bill, which threatened to flood the country with a depreciated and fluctuating, cur rency which does not affect capital ists and speculators eo seriousdy, but always brings distress upon the poorer classes. And hence I asked a suspension of judgment until we could understand the full scope and effect of that particular bill or measure. As it appeared to me, one serious effect would be to create one of the most gigantic monopolies that the country has ever seen. Under the unlimited free coinage clause, every owner of a silver mine would be come more powerful than Aladdin with his -..onderful lamp. Eyery capitalist could more thau double bis capital in three investments Let me illustrate ; The mine owner has $700 worth of silver metal, or bullion, as it is called, or the capital ist goes into the market and buys $700 worth of bullion (the market price of a dollar being 70 cents in ' bullion ). Now under this bill the , government must put its stamp on ing for our Bick and helping our it, and it is immediately worth to needy and devising the best ways the holder 1,000, thus clearing and nieus to improve the mental 300 on a single investment. But and moral condition of our sons and this is not all : The capitalist buys daughters. In our simplicity we a poor man's farm for 1.000, and thought these noble aims were gives his note, payable in ninety enough to engage all our time, and days. He takes 700 and buys all our powers without throwing our silver bullion, gets it stamped at the doors wide open and admitting the mint into $1,000, then offers to pay tierce contest of the political arena, notes, and the poor man has to take We saw that wherever and whenever it, for under this bill it is legal ten- politicians forced themselves into der, and thus pays his $1,000 debt any busin ss, temperance or religi- for only a0. ous organization, that dissensions,!

'However combinations, or associa tions may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people, and then usurp for them selves the reins of government des- roying afterwards the V6ry engines which have lifted them to unjust do- minion- The alternate domination of one faction against another, sharpened by the spite of revenge, natural to party dissent ion. which, in different ages and countries, has perpetuated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism. The disor ders and miseries, which generally result, gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevsiling faction; more able or more fortuaate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purpose of his own elevation, on the ruins of public liberty." (Note the history of France since 1790.) The habit of magnifying particu lar evils, though they be real, will surely have the effect of obscuring greater evils, left to grow and accu mulate hidden power, while we are engrossed with the lesser, will burst on us some day with the sudden fury and destruction of a cyclone. In view of the recent peril the nation, and the South particular ly, has just escaped from force bills and other despotic centralizing measures, it looks like the folly ot madmen for us to abandon our for tifications and expose everything we hold most sacred to risk ef destruc tion. What will silver bills and sub treasury bills be worth to us if we are again placed under the domina tion of ignorance and rapacious greed, as in tLe days of reconstruc tion? uIt is folly to fly from ills we have to others we know not of." What I have written is intendei fo rthe good of the Alliance, and will recfetve the calm consideration of my conservative brethren. Extremists will denounce it as treason. But that' word has no more terror for me than it had for Hampden and Fym, who stood up boldly for their con stitutional rights against a despotic king.

Gov't Report, Aug. ij, 1SS9. 1 s S3m ABSOlSTECtf F2JME THE ALLIANCE AND THE THIRD PARTY. State Chronicle. As we expected, the Kansas and Ohio men, who composed the recent Convention at Cincinnati organized a Third Party, and formulated a platform. Of the 1,21S delegates present.Ohio famished 317 delegate?, composed mainly of the socialistic element of Cincinnati, and Kansas furnishedllll delegates, and the re mainder were mainly from the con tiguous States. Early in the session it became apparent that three or four States had brought enough delegates to control the Convention. The resrion in which the Farmer's Alliance was born and grew was practically unrepresented in the Con ventiou. But the party has been or ganized, and next February it will nominate a ticket- Everywhere the question is asked: "What will the Alliancemen of the South do about it!" The indications are that South ern Alliancemen will do nothing at all about it, and have nothing at all do with it, Practically the South ern Alliancemen were united against its organization. They believe that a false step has been taken, and they will allow the organizers of the party to run it to suit themselves. . They will remain in the Democratic party, the natural champion of the rights of the people, and seek . . . I to brino- about the needed reform which I . . . . legislation through that party, which has ever been faithful to the needs and necessities of the great mass of the people. If that is not their in tention, why dil they not send dele gates to the Convention? Why did they protest against the organization ot the party? and why do they pro claim that they are Democrats? We choose to believe their utterances, and, although there are those South ern Alliancemen who favor a third party under certain circumstances. we do not believe that any consider able number of them will be so fool ish as to give the contiol of the Southern States over into the hands of the Republican party. Support of a third party would surely pro duce that result a remit winch no patriotic Southernor can contemplate without a shudder. THE COTTON CROP. Washesgtox, June 10. The report of the statistics cf the department of Agriculture for June makes the acre age in cotton 97.7 per cent of the area of 1S90, and the average condi tion So. The reduction in area is attributed iu some districts to concerted con traction on account of low prices, but it is evident that it is mainly due to unfavorable conditions for planting and germination. The record of planting in the May report is quite accurately a hietory of the crop to the present time. Planting was de layed by early rains, droughts in the latter half of April, followed by con tinued droughts in May. Germina tion arrested, replanting active, de fective stands corrected, art features of the record frequently and almost universaly reported. These condi tiens were less general and con troll -ing in Texas than in ether StatesJ Arears as compared with those of last year are given as follows: Vir ginia 96, North Carolina 94, South Carolina 95, Florida 99, Alabama 9G, Mississippi 95, Louisana 96, Texas 105, Arkansas 96, Tennessee 95. The general condition is the low est for June since 1S74, though it is only a fraction lower than that of 1SS3 and 1SS9; the latter a year of good yield through favorable later conditions. State average of condition are: Virginia 78, North Carolina 75, Soath Carolina 80, Georgia SO. Florida 90, Alabama SO, Mississippi SS, Louisana SS, Texas 91, Arkansas 8 Tennes see 73. The temperature of May was quito too low for cotton, cool nights check ing germination and retarding growth- Of course these conditions make crops late in development in some places a few days in some, in others a week or two later than in seasons of early development. There is frequent mention of bad stands, but constant replanting will reduce the vacancies to a minimum. Cultiva tion is necessarilly late and fields are grassy, with the usual variation re suiting from difference in soil, amount of replanting and relative promptness and efficiency of planta tion managers- THE PUREST AND BEST.
