Address"AN AKESIS, Box 2416, New York City. 0 0 A CARD, From .National President II. J.. Loncks. To the members of the F. A. & I. U.: On the 11th dav of June eur order suf fered an irreparable loss in the death of that wise counsellor, trusted Jpder and well beloved brother, President L. L. Polk. Why he should have teen taken from us at this time, in the prime of life, in the vigor of manhood, with his ripe experience, enjoying the confidence ot organized labor as no other man has ever done; just on the eve of battle when all eyes were turned to him as the Mose3 who was to lead us into the promised land of liberty For labor, must ever remain a mystery to us. A nation mourns the loss of an uncrowned king. For no other man in the nation would so many tears have been shed as have been and will be shed for our dear departf i brother. He had no gold to give, no patronage to be stow, .no promises for the fiiute; and yet, this plain man of the people, had more friends who loved him, more people who trusted him, more citizens who longed to crown his brow with a presidential core net, than all the wealth of Wall street could buy or the patronage of a dozen presidents could influence. He was the idol of our order. It was contagious. He was the idol of organized labor. We ne'er shall see his like again. We bow our heads in grief under the chasten ing rod. We drop our tears on his con secrated grave. We mourn the loss of the grandest man this movement has develop ed. It is meet that we do all this in the memory of our brother. Feeling as he did, that the battle ot ages was on; real izing as he did the terrible conflict neces sary to avert disaster: knowing as he did ihat every man who loves this republic must be rallied to our standard to save it from the fate of other nations where the wealth of the nation has aggregate d in the hands of the few. He would to-day, were he with us, urgejuson in the line of duty. He would plead with us to 44 si 'ip for the fray" push forward to the goal he has already reached: to receive the re ward already his. "Well done good and faithful servent; enter into your reward." By your choice it becomes my duty to take up the work so suddenly sna thed from him. I do so with a very, very heavy heart oourage aost gone to attempt to follow the incomparable leader. H bids me "strip for the fray." I obeyed his orders when living; I will obey them now, and respond to the call ot duty. He has plainly marked out the path I should follow. To emulate his example md follow in his footsteps as far as my abilities will permit will be the surest road to your confidence. There will be no change of policy. I will need your aid aud assistance more than he did. Inere will be a meeting of the National Execu tive Committee at Omaha, July 1st, when plans for the futile will be out lined. I hope to meet and consult with many of our State officers there. In the meantime address all communications t- 239 North Capital btreet, Washing ington, D. C. We can but show our respect and love for our dear brother by consecrating our selves anew to the cause he loved beUer than life, each one resolving to redouble his efforts for the grandest platform of principles ever enunciated by any body of men; the emancipation of labor from the power of money to oppress by constitu tional methods at the ballot box. Fraternally, H. L. Loucks, President N. F. A. & I. U. Hon. Sid Alexander s osition. House of Rephesektatiyes, U. S. Washington, June 20, 1892. Col. R B. Moore, Dear Sir : Your letter informing me that my position in regard to the government ownership of railroads (an Alliance demand) is not well understood in your city was duly received. I stated that, as between a railroad commis sion with power to make freight and passenger rates and government own ership, I believed the latter the best, that there is no warrant in the con stitution for the government to pur chase railroads and that it was too far in the future to warrant discus sion now; that is I do not propose to take any action in regard to it. I have not introduced any measure re lating to it, nor do I iitencl to intro duce any. Recent information in re gard to some o my critics leads me to believe that the erravaman of my offence is really in my being an officer - . -w - . of the NorthCarohna Farmers btate Alliance, ard I doubt if they would understand my position on anything. In the coming? campaign I will do what I can to insure the election of our State and Xrtional tickets, and I am sure that when our people realize that the election decides whether North Carolina's vote shall be counted by North Carolinians, or by Federal officers, perhaps from New England, they will not hesitate to do their duty in keeping JNortli Carolina in the "Democratic column. Thanking you for your kindness I am yours truly, S. B. Alexander. A million Friends.

GIVE ONE DOLLAR To Erect a Monument to Perpeturte the Memory of this Brave North Caroli nian and Great Leader of the People. The Polk Memorial Association has been organized, with prominent citizens of North Carolina at the head, to raise. a fund for the purpose of erecting over the grave at lial- eigh a grand monument to perpetu ate the memory or that brave and distinguirhed North Carolinian and and great leader of the people, Col. L. L. Polk. Knowing that 111113" of his friends and admirers in Granville county and elsewhere would be glad and esteem it a privilege to give some thing in this direction, the Public Ledger has decided to solicit con tributions. We ask for One Dollar contribu- 1 1 1 1 oions a small sum which everyone disposed to do so can easily spare. Larger sums will also be accepted. We will deposit all money sent us in the Banking House of J. C. Cooper &.Sons, subject to the order of the central committee. The names of the senders and the amounts they give will be publish ed in this column. A Tribute to C ol. iollc. On concluding his address before the Omaha convention, Chairman Ellington said: "I believe it is possible for this rep resentative body to meet, take coun sel, perform its work and adjourn without one single word of discord, not one of hateful strife to mar and deface its glorious record. We have readied a crisis in our history and this meeting will show whether or not we measure up to the responsi bilities or the hour. Vv e are here to-day with the shadow of a great trouble resting upon us. He whom our hearts delighted to honor; our leader, the true, the tried the honest Polk is dead; has lust been taken from us when we needed him mosf. "Our hearts mourn his loss. No loftier soul ever breathed, none work ed harder, suffered more, spent more than he did. He gave his life to our beloved cause and we do not believe it was given in vain. Oh, shade of the loving, great Polk, may the man tle of thy spirit fall upon us to-day in our deliberations to the end that we ma7 be like-minded. I call upon you to-da7 in his name, that if there be a single vestige, an iota of section al feeling left in the hearts of any of us, to wipe it out. I charge . it sa credly that while we stand in the shadow of Polk's great love, we con secrate ourselves to the great work of reforming this government, and that the man who honestly desires its reformation is our brother and I want to say that we can reform it. I beleive that we will reform it." The reference to the deceased Presi dent of the organization was received with cheers and when the picture of President Polk was handed to him by chairman S. Otho Wilson, of the North Carolina delegation,and hoist ed into view the vast convention with one accord arose and the scene was one of befitting reverence to the memory of their leader.

We desire to say to our citizens that for years we have been selling Dr. King's New Discovery for consumption, Dr. King's New Life Pills, Bucklen's Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never hand! cd remedies that sell as well, or that have civen such universal satisfaction.
