Captain Abxanier on Co-Opsrative
' Stores. -
I am receiving many letters ask
ing for plans and information in re-
gard toco-operative stores For the
information of the members of our
order, I will glate that the Farmers'
Alliance b&S no plans lor CO-opera- I
tivesthres. Its only business sys- j
tem consists of the Business Agents
of the Sub-AUiauce8 and State Alii-
ance. ' I
The Farmers' Alliance has no
machinery for creating new tner-1
chants, and I would respectfully
buzz est to nil .those members who
contemplate organizing co-opera
tive stores to considr the situation
well. The only plan of co-operative
stores that has succeeded (of which
I have any knowledge) is the Rich
dale plan of England. It is only
suited to densely populated dis
tricts, where opreratiaes are paid in
cash at least once a month. A num
ber of them were started in this
country some years ago, but I do
not know of anv now. It raav not
be so easy for the stockholders, and
particularly those who indorse for
it, to retire from it in as good hu
mor as when they organized it.
Ig undoubtedly caused by .lactic
acid in the blood. This acid attacks
the fibrous tissues, and causes the
pains and aches in the back, shoul
ders, knees, ankles, hips, and wrists.
Thousands of people have found in
Hood's Sarsaparilla a positive cnre
for rheumatism. This medicine, by
its purifying action, neutralizes the
acidity of the blood, and also builds
up and strengthens the whole body.
The weather-prophet derives his
profit from the change in the weather
Worth Knowing.
Mr. V. H'. Morgan, merchant,
Lafce City, Fla., was taken with a
severe cold, attended with a distress
ing cough and rulTning into Con
sumption in its first stages. He tried
many so-called popular cough rem
edies and steadily grew worse. -Was
redilced in flesh, had difficulty in
breath frig' aifd was unable to sleep.
Finally tried Dr. King's New Dis
covery for Consumption and found
immediate' Telief, and after using
about a lialf dozen boltles found
Jiimaolf iv oil nl hie linrl nn return
of the disease. No otler remedy can
show so grand a record of cures as
Dr. King's New Discovery for Con
sumption. Guaranteed to do just
what is claimed for it. ' Trial bottle

Tht cost of & Presidential election
to the United States is great sup.
Usually Presidential , years have not
been favorable to commercial pros
ptrity. .This year is no exception.
Railroad receipts are less than in
1887. The number of failures is
great, and alarmingly on the in
crease. There seems to be a good
deal that is Terj rotten in Den
mark." The outlook is not all that
could be desired. There has been
too much over trading. Too man yi
people have quit farming to go into
merchandising and trading, and
without either business capacity or
training. There is a continued ad
vance in Southern manufactures,
but the great farming interest in the
South is not satisfactory. In North
Carolina there is depression in trade,
and because of the condition of the
farmers, the true basis of all sab
stantial prosperity. There are sec
tions whole counties in which
bread is scarce and in which the to
bacco crop was almost a failure.
This too in sections where in past
years money has been abundant be
cause crops were remunerative. We
look for more failures and shall be
very thankful if a financial crisis
does not occur within the next two
years.
In the country at large the signs.
are not as flattering as one would,
desire. The Louisville Courier-Journal
says:
"But taking railroad stocks and
farm produce tbgether, the phen6m
enal shrinkage is certainly a stun
ning negative of the 'boom aiki we
are sorry to say it. Buoyancy is a.
missing element in all departments
"The action of trade id i the specti-
lative form, which Iiets on gains or
losses of value has been betting alL
around on declines. The fall in pro
duce is attritratsd eorrsetly topleth
ora in no other staples but corn,
while the logical accompaniment
of a fall in the corn and cotton Ww
changes would be a rise in the Ex
change. But then the shrinkage of
values has prorated fully with all
produce except corn and its porcine
products alone.
"All we are pointing at is the bus
iness temper, as indicated by invest
ments prevailing! which is bearish
out of time."
Prices for food prod nets are wea
kerthan they, were a month ago.
Corn has declined 8 cents a bushel
wheat has declined 12 cents a bush
el ; hogs hare dropped from two to
three dollars a head, and other
things have fallen. Securities have
also shrunk. The coming year 1888,.
promises to be one of trial and, ta
many, of scarcity. VUmingt0r4
