At a meeting of Salem sub-Alliance No. 513, on February 18th, 1893, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted: Resolved, That we, the members of Salem Alliance, re-affirm our ap proval and support of the princi ples of the National Farmers Alli ance and Industrial Union, as de clared in the Constitution of the Al liance and in the Ocala platform, amd while it is our duty to support those principles and demands, iu a Anwn County. I arn glad to inform you that the Alliance is not dead in "this part of the moral vineyard, but is moving up grade. We had ten applicants for membership at our last meeting. The prospect for the future is very bright. The prosperity of the Alli ance dejK-nds largely on the circula tion of reform papers. In view of this end I will do all I can to spread your paper. Yours very respecttuiiy, W. T.

Resolved, That we condemn in the most decided manner the action of the present Legislature of North Carolina in passing resolutions re questing our Senators and Repre sentatives in Congress to vote for the repeal of what is commonly called the Sherman silver law, which renuire3 the Secretary of the Treas ury to purchase $4,500,000 of silver each month, so as to increase the amount of money in circulation among the people.

Since the election we have received Ove new members and three applications now on file for the next meeting and still more expected. Reudick Alii ance, or the greater portion ot it is true and tried members. The cheat ing and frauds resorted to by the enemies of reform on the 8th of November makes us stronger for the Alliance, and for the battle in 1894 and 1896. Cheer up brethren and work in all the timber that is in your neighborhood. It is the duty of alliancemeu to encourage all others who are fit for the Alliance to come in. Brethren iemember that the Alliance did not come to go, it come to stay. As for me and my house we will stay with it till the people get justice. AV ith much success to the Cau CASIAN and its noble editor, and the mouthpiece of the N. C. Farmers State Alliance, we remain Fraternally yours M. J. Rivenrark. Getting In Better Shape Than Ever. Our friends (?) sometimes tell us, that the Alliance is almost dead in certain sections. This may be true, and if it is, the order has shown it self worthy of having lived, which cannot be truthfully said ot some thinsrs that have died and many that are still living. But the Alliance is not dead. It is now undergoing a purging a lop ping off of some of the branches which will only give it a life. vigorous COLORADO'S NEW CONGRESSMEN, They are JefTersoniiin Democrats. They Condemn The Act. Resolutions of Fork Creek Al- I liance No. 696. February 25, 1893. Mr. Editor: Seeing in the Pro gressive Farmer an article headed "A Cowardly Act on the Alliance" that the .Legislature had passed a bill to repeal the charter of the State Alliance Business Agency Fund, and believing as we do, that it was intended for a deadly blow on the Alliance, as the Business Agency Fund is the right arm of the All ance, therefore be it Resolved, By the members of Fork Creek Alliance, No. 678, that we solemnly enter our protest against such uncalled for legislation, and that a goodly number of Fork Creek members are contributors to the fund and is well satisfied, and don't want it out. Without fund the Al liance would be very weak. We suppose the Legislature is Demo cratic in majority and some of Fork Creek's members voted that way, but such legislation as that will be long remembered. Any political sneak tha,t will present such a bill in the Legislature or out of it should not Washington Post. John C, Bell, of Montrose, and Lafe Pence, of Denver, are the gen tlemen who will represent Colorado in the next Congress. Mr. Pence succeeds Mr. Townsend. The former is but thirty-two years of age, an el oquent speaker, and it goes saying an ardent advocate of silver. So is his colleague. Bell is a na tive of Tennessee and Pence of Indiana. "I came," said Mr. Bell, "from the greatest silver producing district of the world, including Gunnison, Aspin, Creede, and I were elected by combined Democratic and independ ent forces, but of course there were Republicans who supported us on the silver issue. That is the para mount question with the people of Colorado. Both of us have been life-long Democrats, but our alle giance to bimetallism 13 stronger than to caucus. not to feed them until they are about thirty-six hours old, as the rest and warmth will, by that time, have giv en them strength and activity. The first meal should be bread crumbs, moistened with milk, and allow course oatmeal also. Continue this feed until they area week old, giving a little chopped lettuce or cabbage once a day. In mixing the bread crumbs and milk, it would not be out of place to first beat tip an egg in the milk. If bread crumbs are not convenient, which is often the case when there are large numbers of chicks, make a thick porridge of oatmeal and rice mixed, cook well and let it become cold. Now beat up an egg in milk or buttermilk, or even hot water, ami add to the por ridge. Thicken the porridge with corn meal and feed to them. It must le lorne in mind that no food is good tor young chicks if continued, and hence it should be varied. Af ter ther are a week old, they should be given screening, course oatmeal, cracked corn, millet seed, sorghum seed, broken rice, or any other hard food that they ean eat, but the soft food should also be given' at least twice a day. Be cautious about feed ing too much hard boiled eggs. Eve rybody recommends such a diet, and poultry writers seem to make that kind of food alone sufficient for young chicks, but, our word for it, you will cause them to become con stipated if eggs are used too freely. A good food, after the second day, is cold boiled rice, thickened stiffly with very fine oatmeal, fine bran (ship stuff), and corn meal, equal parts. After mixing warm it a lit tie and feed. By all means get s bone mill, or procure bone-meal, and mix a little together with powdered charcoal, in the soft food. The common amoniated bone-meal will not answer; button filings, or bones from the table are preferable. Twice or three times a week, if convenient, after th first week, feed finely chop ded meat of some time, avoiding salt or pickled meats. Feed it cooked or raw. When green stuff is not procurable, a few onions (with tops), lettuce, cabbage or young rye, chop ped fi ne, will be relished. One of the best foods in cold weather, when green stuff cannot be had, is to take clover hay and cat it very fine. A tobacco cutter answers well for cut ting it, and pour boiling water plen tifully over the chopped clover and let it stand all night. The next morning boil it, adding potatoes, car rots, turnips, beats or anything you prefer. A small piece of beef, beef liver or ground meat may be put in When well cooked thicken with one part fine bran, one part ground oats. and two parts corn meal, salting to taste. Now add a teaspoonful o the bone meal and the same quantity of charcoal, and you have a cheap. nutritious, variable food, which con tains all the elements necessary for growth, heat and health. Once week parch some wheat screenings. ground oats, or even corn meal, and feed to hem, the meal being moist ened. Poultry Keeper. to Are the Farmers Responsible? A traveling statesman, who stop HWf ped long enough in Washington taiK to a newspaper reporter ttney all do that) declares that a pitiful state of affairs prevails in the agri cultural regions and that this, condi tion is common to the farmers in the south, in the west, in the south west and in the northwest; and he gives out the further information that the farmers themselves are re- sponsible iorit .tie said that in stead of diversifying their crops they stick to cotton, corn or wheat, and he wants a school established where thev can go and learn how to attend to their busiuess. president nrnrK. Spk I K4KMsfc t-AttU Am- (Our Home.) We had the pleasure of bearing the address of Hon. Manou Butler, at Rockingham, hut Thursday. He epoke about an hour and a half op the object and mission ot the Alli ance movement and the necessity of organization and co-operation. Af- ter congratulating me wru pwiuc for their presence he began in his usual earnest and forcible manner to show the imperative necessity for or ganization. He spoke of this as dis- inctly an age of co-operrtion. II he time has not come tor larmers to . i .11 organize, win ixme one pieae wru us when to begin? Farmers should organize in order mat mey may come in contact with each other and exchange opinions and thereby get he benefits of each others experi ments. He also showed that great benefits should come from social in tercourse and thus result in improve ment socially. Working and mak- ug produce not the only things nec essary to prosperity. Government is necessary to see that even handeu ustice is done to all classes, lie asked if this is being done now, ot- ering ten minutes or even half an hour to any one who would answer. Admitting then that justice is not , being done, whose duty is it to see that the Government is properly ail ministered ? Here he made a sarcastic allusion to the charge that the Alliance had "shot right into the Third party." Business men have already found out that the way to get what they want is to vote for it. Some Alliancemen voted with the Democratic party and some with the People's party, each conscientiously believing that he was right. If your information was wrong your conscience led you wrong, for the conscience is governed by tne intellect. A man who will read but one side of a question is blind and don't want to see the truth. He re peated the charge, and challenged eontradicticn, that the Associated Press dispatches were framed by and under direct supervision of the mon- ey power, nutocracy noius tne av enues of intelligence, henee perverts the minds of the people. The money power knew that they could never bind the people in industrial slavery until they first bound them in intel lecual bondage. We have commenced and it's a tremendous battle, but we are not going to stop. The fight is in the interest of truth. No politi cal party is going to do anything for any class unless they are compelled to do it; therefore, perpetual organi zation is necessary. Politicians work out of fear. Organization is needed to make them fear. Stay organized and be able to bring such pressure to bear that law-makers dare not re sist it Farmers and merchants shonld make a bargain that if the party in power gives us equal justice it shall receive our joint endorsement and vice versa. Why are you not as mad now as before the election? Did you work yourself up into such a fury: No, it was the men who make politics a business. The country is getting in bad fix when diflerences in politics cannot be tolerated. Sad to look upon neighbors fighting each other and all because politicians have made a fool of them. After reviewing the present situa tion the speaker continued : I con sider this the brightest day in the history of ' our country for popular government. (Applause.) The lines have been drawn and the issues fair ly discussed. The election of the Democratic party is the most fortu nate thing that ever happened. If they do not give what they promised the people will know why. To-day the people are nearer instice than at any time since Thos. Jefferson and old Jackson were laid down in their graves. (Applause.) All true men should lay aside bitter feeling aad do justice to the party that does justice to us. We cannot do Mr. Butler justice in attemdting to give even a synop sis of his speech. We hope to have him ere long to address the people of Union and Anson counties. fMDBEFS COM.

Sir and Brother I wrote yester day for papers, soon thereafter I met a friend who manifested much con cern about our Alliance charter. I remember well that in our first State convention it was understood that the State fund was to be placed in the hands of a treasurer as perm anent backing for "State Business Agent" and any one withdrawing or being dismissed from the order was to sell or transfer to an Allianeeman only, and furthermore not be with drawn from that fund. Now, if Secretary of State, which is the first place in his Cabinet, as he has done; and if T. R. Jernigan, editor and proprietor of the State Chronicle, which claims to be the organ of the Democratic party, can associate with himself on the editorial staff of that paper, Mr. J. C. Logan Harris, one the most pronounced Republicans in the State, which he has done, then why in the name ot common sense should our farmers and Alliancemen allow themselves longer to quarrel over and divide on petty partisan questions?

It is a pretty big thing when it is engaged in lobbying a bill through, or in getting office, but when the handles of a plow are put in its hands it is simply a tottering wreck. We ask some of these great statesmen to put themselves in the place of the farmers and see how they would come out. Our opinion is that they would crawl out of the lit tle end of the horn every time. It is but a piece of flippancy for men who are plunging acd snorting around in the political show-ring to say that the farmers are responsible for their condition. The very fact that this condition is common to all sections shows that the cause has its origin beyond the control of the farmers. A few years ago the farm ers of the west and northwest were exceedingly prosperous. A few years ago the farmers of the south" and southwest were more prosperous than they are now. It is but a dull per son who will say that they are re sponsible now for a condition that is almost intolerable. No, the cause is in the financial legislation of tha Republicans; in the demonetization of silver; in the con stantly appreciating value of the gold standard; in the tax which Great Britain is enable to exact by purchasing a dollar's worth of India cotton or wheat for 64 cents of Ame rican silver; in the law that outlaws their property as collatteral for loans: in the system that causes the curren cy of the country to collect and con gest at a few money centers. The tanners will never have an opportunity to be prosperous until there is a radical change in our finan cial system. Atlanta Constitution.

A gentleman left'his horse down on the beach, yesU-ruay, witn nm iu little children in the carriage. The horse ran away and came right up past our house?" The speaker waa Harry Bradford, a bright bov of ten tears. He was the oldest of five children, and, with h brother who was three years younger, he had come to meet thtrir father at the train, and was now telling him what had happened since they last taw him. Mr. Bradford bad taken nis iann lv to the seaside for the summer va cation, and they were en jov ing it to the utmost; for thej bad taken their pony, and with riding, boating, and cu-immlnir tho lmv9 were haviuc a royal holiday. The father remained at his business in the city through the week, but came to them every Friday night; and Saturdays and Sundays, when the children had him to join them in their sport and rest, they considered the best days of The place chosen by the Bradford family was a infle or two outside one of the fashionable cities by the stu. Between two rocky headlands, a mile and a half apart, a beautiful bcich of white sand stretched in aj gr;-etul curve, and upon it rolled j ; the surf in dark-green waves break- j ing continually into white foam. Here the children played in the sand bathed in the clear water, or rode in their pony-cart along the hard, smooth beach. The farm house where they board ed was about a quarter of a mile back from the beach, on an avenue much frequented by riders and driving par ties from the gay city near by. The coming of summer visitors had occasioned quite a transforma tion in the old house. A piazza had been added to the front, and on it hung a hammocK, while another hammock could be seen under the apple-trees in the orchard which lay on the ocean side of the mansion. The grass had been trimmed to make a smooth lawn, the house had been painted, red tubs with flowers in them were placed at various point, and a semicircular graveled drive-way led from a gate below the house, at the edge of the orchard, past the front of the low piazza, and out to another gate as far above the house as the first was below the two gates being perhaps one hundred and fifty feet A A V apart. Everything about the premises had a very attractive appearance, especial ly to Mr. Bradford, as he came from his hot city office, driving up the pleasant'road about sunset, his bright eager boys recounting the tale of their week's doings to his willing ears. When Harry spoke of the runaway horse, Mr. Bradford was at once in terested, for he imagined the feelings of the frantic father on seeing his little children in such imminent danger. So he said: "Did the children get hurt, Harry?" O, no, Papa; the horse was stop ped." "Who stopped him, my boyr "Mr. Marsh did, Papa; but I helped, too." : Finding that no serious consequen ces had come from the adventure, Mr. Bradford paid little attention to Harry's modest avowal of a part in it, and' as the boy said no more about the runaway, conversation turned in to other channels, and the father thought no more of it until after supper. Mr. Marsh, whom Harry had mentioned, wa3 a New York genile man, who, with his wife and baby, i was stopping at the same house with ! il Tt i m i rue uradtoras. After the evening meal, Mr. Brad ford came out upon the piazza to en- oy the fresh breeze from the ocean, and there found Mr. Marsh sitting alone, and apparently in deep thought. Mr. Bradford greeted him with a hearty shake of the hand, and draw ing a chair to his side, seated him self, saying: "Well, Mr. Marsh, Harry tells me you had quite an excitement here yesterday.

A soul from me my God did claim, And took from me the soul again, For when from me soul had fled, I was the same as that when first made. And without hands feet or bouI, I travel on irom pole to pole, labor hard by day and night, To fallen man I give great light Thousands of people young and old, Do by my death great light behold. .No rite or rong can 1 conceive, The scriptures 1 cannot believe, Although my name there in is found, They are to me as empty sound. No fear of death doth trouble me, Real happiness 1 shall never see. To Heaven I Bhall never go, JS or to the grave nor hell below.

"Yesterday, after we all had come up from bathing, I sat here on the piazza, reading, with baby in my lap. Your children wtre playing on the grass in the orchard, near that lower gate, and Mrs. Marsh sat near me on the piazza. "Suddenly we heard the clatter of a horse s feet, and a shout in a man's voice: 'Stop that horse! stoD that horse!' Looking up, 1 saw a carriage containing two little children, about two and three years old, drawn by a horse that was madly rushing straignt up the road. It was a ter nble moment. I turned to ffive the baby to Mrs. Marsh, and ran for the upper gate, as I knew the horse would pass the lower gate before I could get there. But Harry had seen him too, and as the horn came past, the boy shot out from the gate like uaan oi. iignt, ana witnout a word sprang at the horse's head, seized the bridle, and held on with a grip like a vise, nia weight waa lnsufficien to stop the frightened animal, which dragged the boy, his f feet hardly toucning ine ground, irom the pom where he seized it, over the entire distance to the upper gate. Here also was able to clutch the bridle, ana we brought the horse to a stand still. When the father came up, he was so agitatea that he could no speak." Such was the" adventure so simply told by Harry, when he said "But I helped too." My readers maybe glad to know that this is no storv made up from imagination.

A novelist and editor whose name is a house-hold, word in America and Europe, recently remarked, as a friend found him amid a pile of newspapers, '"The only periodical I read through is The Youth's Com panionand I read that through every week." "For your children, I suppose," said his visitoi. "No, for myself," was the reply. "It is a wonderful paper." The announcements of The Youth's Conpanion for 1893 make this story easily credible. Seldom if ever has it presented so varied a programme of articles and stories, or so striking a lit of eminent contributors. It never ceases to be a young people's paper; but it long since lifted itself to be also a most versatile, instruct ive and facinatmg paper for all the family. One of the marked features this coming year is the appearance of the seven successful stories for which the famous prize of $6,500 were awarded. No less than 2.963 stories competed for these prizes. The reg ular "every day" stories of The Com panion will be contributed by over 100 authors, all of them popular, and some oi tnem the best-known story- writers m America. Only $1,75 a year.

Is it oest to cnurn sweet cream, sour cream, or clabbered cream? How much hot and cold water is sufficent 1 A 1 to pour into a cnurn containing one gallon of cream? and how do you tell when it is necessary to put in hot or cold water.'' What is the trouble when butter will not come under anv cirenmstances? What should be the temperature of cream when vou be gin to churn, and should the churn be hot or cold? A Subscriber. Unless a centrifugal separator is used milk 6et in cans in water at a temperature of 45 will cive the most satisfactory results. At this temperature all the cream will rise in from eight to twelve house. Butter cau be made from either sweet or sour cream. It should not be clabbered for the best results. If sour, churn at from 65 to 08 in winter and from 60 to 65 in sum mer. If sweet at from 54" to 00 in summer. If too warm the butter will come soft; if too cold the cream will whip into foam and the churn ing will be protracted unnecessarily not water need never be poured into the cream. The cream mav be warmed by setting the can contain ing it in water of the desired tern peraiure ana stirring tin the proper temperature is reached. A ther mometer is indispensable. Guess work will not do. If butter will not come when the above conditions are attained it is usually caused by using the milk from some cow in the heard which A "1 '11 m una uwu uo long in mine. ne re sult comes from an excess of caseine m the cream. The churn should always be scald ed before being used and usually rinsed out with cool watei before the cream is put in.
