The Official Paper of Chowan
County.
AGAIN VICTORIOUS !
N
ORF Lk SOUTHERN RAILROAD COMPANY.
UNANIMOUSLY ADOPTED
BY THE CHOWAN COUNTY FARMERS'
AL-
LIANCE JULY 4, 1889.
Resolved, That we adopt the Fish
erman and Farmer as the organ of
Chowan County Alliauce and of the Sub
Alliances composing it.
FARMERS' ALLIANCE.
Declaration of Principles.
Profoundly impressed that we, the
Farmers Alliance, united by the strong
and faithful ties of financial and home
interests, should set forth our declara
tion of intentions: we therefore, re
solve: 1 To labor for the education of the
agricultural classes, in the science of
economical government, in a strictly
nou partisan spirit.
2 To endorse the motto: "In things es
sential, unity, and all things, charity.
3 To develop a better state, mentally,
morally, socially, and financially.
4 To create a better understanding for
sustaining civil officers in maintaining
law and order.
5 To constantly strive to secure entire
harmony and good will among all
mankind and brotherly love among
ourselves.
6 To suppress personal, local, section
al, and national prejudice: all unheal
thy rivalry and selfish ambition.
The brightest jewels which it garners
are the tears of widows and orphans,
and its imperative commands are to
visit the homes where lacerated hearts
are bleeding, to assuage the sufferings
of a brother or sister; bury the dead:
care for the widows and educate the
orphans; to exercise charity to offen
ders; to construe words and deeds in
their most favorable light, granting
honesty of purpose and good intentions
to others, and tt j otect the principles
of the Alliance unto death. It's laws
are reason and equity: it's cardinal
doctrines inspire purity of thought
and life: it's intentions are, "peace on
earth good will towards all men.
Article X Of Constitution.
Sec. 1. Any member who shall here
after disclose any of the workings of
the Order, or who may impart the pass
word of the Order knowingly to anyone
not entitled to the same, or who shall
disclose any, of the secrets pertaining

conviction thereof be immediately ex
pelled by the body , and shall not be
eligible to membership thereafter.
CARRIER'S ADDRESS
A merry Christmas to you, Friend,
And a happy New Year, too;
May you enjoy all they send,
Is my hearty wish for you,
This joyous time has once more
Come round to us again;
And it conies alike to rich and poor,
As the sunshine and the rain.
To some, with joy 'twill ever fill,
A life already full,
And make the Earth seem brighter still,
When ne'er yet 'twas dull.
To others 'tis an oasis green,
In the world's dull stony soil.
And marking only a resting-place,
In a life of barren toil.
This year has lived its numbered days,
And joined time's endless store;
And its griefs and joys are added too,
To those that are gone before.
Our grand and glorious leaders,
Kings of Nation's make,
Have sacrificed their party,
For truth and honor's sake.
All honor to them, just the same,
They did as they thought right;
They o partners in cur country's fame
And render it more bright.
All honor to the Old North State,
From mountains to the sea,
She proves her sons all Democrats
Whate'er else they be.
So we'll sing the old year to its rest,
And give welcome to the new.
We'll iaugh and shout with boyish zest,
Anil welcome Christmas too.
If you are fortune-favored, friend,
And on Christmas joys revel.
Spare a moment, now and then,
To think of the printer's "devil. "
Every week of the dying year,
Has found him serving you,
And now he comes with Christmas cheer
To see what you will do.
If you, like him, have worked for nought
And have no cash to pay,
Return his greeting as you ought.
And send him on his way.
But it you can afford a mite,
No matter what it is,
May fortune make your Christmas
bright,
As you will brighten his.
George W. Bunch,
Carrier.
