The Bible says, "all liars shall
have their part iu the lake that burns
with fire and brimstone." The so
called Democratic press seems deter
mined to gobble up the whole con
cern. It is said that President Cleveland's
oldest sou (?Iaria Hal pin's hoy Os
car)iiso indignant at his father's
treatment of the Cuban patriots thai
be has decided tojoin a flllibust -ring
expedition and enter the Cubau srmv.
The Atchiuson Champion, one of
the ofdest Republican papers in Kan

of battle clears away there are alto
gether too many Populist officers
crawling out from under the ruins."

George -Washington declared in
his farawe-11 nddie-s, that the correct
way to preserve the public credit is
to use it as sparingly as possib'e.
Grovel Cleveland's way -if 're.-ev-ing
the public credit is lo strain it to
its utmost limit. But it's a bng
drop from Washington, "the father
of hi3 country," don teU rover, th?
fisherman of Buzzard's Buy.

dou't seem to care for party name,

sociate with all the parties, and bid
any of them a hearty welcome to
their ranks; and if you strike them
on the issues -of the day they will
whip you every time. They are se
hard to understand. Will some one

Bui to be honest, 1 contend that
the white people do not vote with

gat up a party and the white people

will every so called Democrat, or by

Now do you understand the Pops
and their relation to other parties?
They are cot caring for party names,
but for the good of the conntry and
for the greatest good of the masses.
So it does not matter whether you
are a Democrat, a Republican or a

Jefferson and Jackson, yon can vote
with the Pops.

Here's n pipeful for the cheerful
idiot to smoke who yawps "Populism
dying," says a Western exchange.
In Nebraska, Holcomb, the Populist
nominee for governor, last year had
88,000 votes and had the indorsement
of the Democrats. In the late cam
paign the Populisms went it alone,
had no Democratic indorsement, and
their candidate fer supreme judge
received over 105,000 votes 7,000
more rotes that: Holcomb received
ne year ago, and making a clean
estimated Populist gain of 35,000
votes over last year.
In God's name rally to the Reform
press, says an exchange. One good
paper, judiciously placed in the
hands of a liberal minded opponent,
win no more toward winning con-j
verts in six months than all the j
brass bands, torchlight processions,!
rip-snortinpr hamngues, aud snz
slingofjmean whiskey will do in

It is now absolutely necessary that
rhe vefvrm forces begin to organizeand
put tbe ball to roiling if we intend to
to win in '96. It seems to pome that
they can fold their arms and dwiffc to
success on flowery beds of ease without
putting a hand to the movement or
sacrificing a cent. All who are cf this
opinion are entirely miAtakened, for if
we win we n:ust organise and make a
small sarrifice. Tbe best and .surest
plan is to begin on a small scale and as
it grows older it will grpw stronger.
We would suggest tba. the Populists
of each school district in the eouhty
hold a meeting and organize a Populist
club and then hold township moeliugs.
For the benefit of such clubs ws will
send the Watchman in elubs of five
or more from now uutii Jan. 1, 18U7
for $1.00 paid in advance. Now if you
want to win the fight in 96 ; nd W it

Bead before tbe Rowan County Farm
ers' Alliance, Nov. 30, 1895.
We live in a mechanical age. We
glory more in a new invention than
we do in a new book. A m altitude
of people who remain totally un
moved, uninterested and uninflu
enced by the most superb achieve
ment of some master in literature
wiil stop and stare in the street at
the commonest mechanical feat.
The organization, however, in whose
interest I am speaking this evening,
stands for the cultvatioD of the high
er "u;lit:es,, of human life, and the
very spirit of the age lo which I
have already. alluded only serves to
ad i to the urgency of its claims.
We are iaformed that in ancient
times the people heard, the Lord

ers Alliance, in an age when the
book is the sermon for mapy people,
the magazine the oration nnd Hip
newspaper the most eloquent speech
to have them red the Lord's wisdom
gladly, i but state a well known
fact when 1 sav that the sources of
J
human intelligence have been great
ly enlarged by such agencies as that
which Wo represent. Literature has
attained to such dimensions that it
my be said to surround us like an
atmcchere. It is not as it once
waj iu history, when wandering
minstrels aud story tellers were the
only books in Europe. Neither i
it as it was long after the indention
of printing, when books wese uupur

ui.td. ?j fti ii.y liues by fascinating
illustrations drawn by a facile brain,
it bus come in fact to be regarded
as a prerogative of good writers to
give not ouiy energy and attractive
ness to truth, but also phtusibility to
falsehood. It is considerations like
these which lead us to emphasize iu
a meeting like this that function of
the Alliance by which it bears plen
tiful witness to the truth, by means
of the printing press. i
The Almighty does not usually
project a new idea into this world by
means of a committee or conference.
There is usually one prephet or saint
or reformer, who muses until the fire
bums, and then he speaks with his
tongue, or what is more permanent,
writes a book or in a p iper, and thus
iuluses into other souls the divine
flame that has permeated his own.
In the conflict with unbelief, preju
dice a;id greed for worldly gam,
muchof the battle must be fought
with weapons forgsd in devout stu
dies and then made effective by tbe
printer's ink. It is thus that the
lateiiect as well as spiritual uniform
of our faith is puc on. The words
of great writers symbolize the faiths
or unfaiths of all reading and thiuk
ng men. They are shouted in their
buttle cries, quoted in their argu
nients, sung at their feasts, and tven
give comfort in sorrow and some
Limes peace in death. Accordingly
into the sad and humbling aspects of
oui- nineteenth centurv life with its
m
hideous vices and crimes, its luxuries
and selfishness and greed set over
against pauperism, debasement and
discontent, the li-ht aud evidencs rt'
the gospel cemmand, "Love thy
neighbor as thyself" must come from
the reformer's lips and pen, as weli
s utter its' ad monitory voices from
the pulpit.

support of masterful'. speaker,
wntns and argument!' can its good
osaiSf be maintained in our d :v, and
of such equipments she can proud)
boast.
Nut many years a'D ther was
not a piper to ad vacate the cause of
t he farmer. It is true there were
m Miy so euiled agricultural papers,
but they only advised I he farmer
(hat tho only way out of his trouh.es
Wj.i to muse two staiks of
gram
or grass to grow where only one
grew before, but so soon as this was
done, to his utter astonishment he
heard tbe cry of over produetie-ii ;
then he was advised to cease produc
ing so much else he would starve
himself to death. The fat of his
trouble was not clearly defined. His
oppression did not abate; certain
classes grew richer day by day and
he grew poorer. Must he dig and
delve and eke out his mortal exist
ence, while other men devoured his
substance and spent it in riotous liv
ing, faring sumptuously every day,
when his maker had assured hina
that in the swert of his fnce he
could have bread to eat? Such con
ditions these gave birth to the
Farmers' Alliance.
It would be an ungracious and un
necessary task for tne to place the
Alliance in comparison with the
church, Out it is a great pleasure to
study its contributors anHrontri-
butious to the treasuries or knowl
edge in the f ma of a literature un
surpassed in digr.ity and honor. The
Alliance has al ways been an educa
tional organization, and liccording1
has always believed in information.
Look at her noble work! Look at
her grand achievements! Look at
her band of writers and speakers!
Has the Alliaseejbeen a failure? Al
though her members may wear hay
seeds iiLtheir hair.
Less than ten years ago the North
rCaroliua State Ailianes was organ-
izedj and with the pioneer ref rmer,
L. L. Polk, of sweet spirit and blessed
memory, vho went to his reward all
too soon, with mind clear as the ra
diance from above, wrote for the
Farmers' AH:auee. Hs had light to
shed on the pilgrim's way, food for
the ever busy and weary worker. He
could like the shepherd boy of old
take a smooth sdone from the crys
tal water of Alliance tnrth, put it
ut it
inwle
U16,c
it of
in his mighty r-lisig and v-.t a sin
blow crush the head of the iriaut
oppression.
A ed in conclusion, permit me to
say -thai. this leader' of a few years
ago did not take his mantle along
with him when he left the scene of
his earthly labors. Were it the
Uproper thing to do, names miftht be
glveiL of the with us . today who
arj worthiv successors to this well be
loved brothciYl though it must be
said toat iheir number is not so targe
as we Mishit were. Phe majority
uUj not be oa our side, yekfollow-
ing majorities blindly is a daBgeTol'S;
thing. We may be a band weak
and small, but if our principles are
rikjht God is wilh us and if God fs
for us who can be against us? Gi. -
eon of old started out with an army
of twenty-two thousand men to lick
the Midianites, but the first thing
ne knew he had but ten thousand;
but this did not discourage him.
Yet a more trying time was to come.
When the final test came he had hut
300 men left of the twenty-two
thousand, and such another licking
as they gave the hosts of Midianites
was astonishing. Why? Because
Gideon's cause was right and the
Lord was ou his side. The Lord is
always found ou the tide of right.
Ever since the creation God has
honored the laboring man and his
occupation. God's own Son worked
at the carpenter's trade. Then it
the Lord has honored the laborer all
the past ages do you think he is go
ing to forsake him iu th Nineteenth
century? Let us nolice some of the
great writers and prophets of reform
and benevolence who came from the
fields. When Elijah went to set Ei.
sha apart for the prophetic office
wheie do you think he found him?
He found him in the field plowing.
Washington came from the fields.
Jeffersou from the fields, and the
presidential martyrs, Garfield and
Lincoln, from the fields. Henry
Clay, Daniel Webster and Martin
Luther from the fields, and why
should not our writers with pen and
brain honor the men of the field.
Behold ii thai first Christmas night
how God honored the fields. There
vefe wiseacres that night and sd;.r-n-d
government officials iu Jciusa
iem aud Bethlehem, snoring in deep
sleep. But ii'.e first annouueement
of a Saviour's birth was made to
those shepherd boys out there in the
fie.d ut their pest of duly. They
beard thstt aiigeiie band singing,
"G;ory to G'd in the highest, peace
on e irth and good will to men.
Brethren, we cannot ali be grout
writers of the tru'-h, but let - us be
reader, and, not only readers but ac
tois of the truMi. Then let us thank
God and take courage.
