Centraz tiion con stat! fly thriHteqs.o af Ji:.i,,it Relf-goveruineut of the: ieopIe of . the States. ; ; 1 - Senate Chamber, June 28, '90 Elias Carr, Esq., President Farru ers' Alliance 6( North Carolina, Old Sparta, N. (J : Dear Sir: So many reports concerning my jxisition on what is known as .the Sub-Treasury Or Far mers, Warehouse bill have been circulated in our State,, and I have received so inauy letters of inquiry on the subj ect that I have deem ed it my duty to answer them nil in this way. I write to you as the honored head of the Farmers' Alli ance of North Carolina, aud desire in this manner to make kuowu to the people m y honest opinion ou this and cognate subjects. I do this all the more readily because 1 am conscious that 1 have never,-in the course Of my political lile, con cealed from the r people who have honored me my "candid conviction in regard to any important public matter. It is too late now for me to begin Mich a course. Ou' the 24th day of;Febiuary, 18 00, at the request of Col. L L. Polk, president of the N. F. Alli ance and Industrial Union, I intro duced in the Senate, bill 280G, pop ularly known as the Sub-Treasury bill, and procured i fJ reference to the committee on agriculture and fores t ry , ' w h e i e i t was sup posed that it would receive more friendlv consideration than from the commit tee on tiuance, to wuich it other wise would have gone according to the rules. On receiving it I told both Col. ."Polk and Dr. Macune, the chairman of the legislative co ui mittee of the Alliance, that I was uot prepared to promise them to support-the. '.bill; that it was a great aud. radical departure from the accustomed poljcy of our leg islation, and that there were ques tions both of practicabilit.v ami constitutionality which I wished to reserve. 1 told them also that I hoped for good results from its in troduction, a:id believed that its discussion would attract the atten tion ot the couutry to the condition and the wants of the agricultural classes, and if; this bill was not deemed the proper one, that some other would be formulated ' in the direction of the heeded . relief. 1 procured an early consideration of the -bill by; the committee, and a very able aud most interesting discussion by Messrs. Polk and Macune was had :But so far with -out result. The comin-ittee has not yet made a reportythough I am as sured that a majority ."of- its . mem bers are anxiously i seeking to (le vise a method of relief which shall not be opeu to the objections of that bill. My own position remains the same. 1 cannot support this bill in its present shape. But I am not opposed to the; principle and puiiHJses of the measure. ' Ou the contrary, they are those which I have'lor ten years advocated, and for the accomplishment of which I have in every county in North Car olina again and again urge d the organization of farmers, pointing out them how that .all othej classes o! society were oigauized for the promotion of their separate inter ests. ; It is a shamelul truth, that in the enormous growth- of the wealth Of our country in the last twenty years, the farmers have not proportionately participated All candid men admit that they have not. had their share of the ag gregate prosperity of our country The reason of this is as plain to be seen as any cause; for- any effect For a quarter of a century the legislation of liur couutry has been notoriously in the; interest of cer tain combinations of capital The manufacturers have beeu protected bv euormous duties upon foreign imports, many of-which are a.bso lutelv nrohibitorv. The currency i - . has been systematically contrac ted by ti e withdrawal of circula tion and the demonetization of sil ver in the interest of the bankers, brokers, bondholders ana alt the creditor class. In this way the in evitable results have beeu pro duced. The euormous wealth of our country has. more and more ceased to be widely distributed and has become , concentrated in the hands of a few. Overgrowth for tunes have been accumulated by the favored ones, whilst mortgages have leeu the chief acquisition of the many. The.farmer being com pelled to sejl his surplus wheat, beef and cotton in free trade mar kets of the world, was not allowed also tr buy -his supplies in the same place, but was compelled to briug his money home from Europe and buy his iron, his clothing, and all his farm supplies from the do mestic manufacturers at prices en hanced not only by'these enormous tariff duties, but like" ise by this severe contract'on of the currency. What else could possibly have fol lowed but indebtedness and bank ruptcy for that class who had thus to bear the ultimatejburdens caused by this disturbance of the laws of the economy, and by which alone the undue riches ol.one class were secured 1 All efforts to secure the repeal of this outrageous taxation and to re store the full use of silver as money, having so far proved unavailing, reasonable men are not surprised that the oppressed class of our peo pie have at last organized and de termined to do something. For one I sympathize most cordially and sin cerely with this determination. In asmuch as it is impossible to com pensate the farmer for the robbing of him under this tariff taxation by imposing tariff duties for his bene fit, also for the reason that similar products to his.are not imported in to this country the question arises, iow shall he be com pen sated ? jlf some way be not devised, and we continue to impose these tariff taxes on him, we simplv admit that he is to be oppressed forever or until lie is sent to the poor-house; and that whilst we have power under the constitution to dcotrov fA taxation one class of citizens, we have neith er the power nor the disposition to compensate that destroyed class, nor to equalize the burdens of life among the people. I never will agree to this, and I stand ready ito vote for any measure , for the relief of the agricultural classes of the the communitv that will serve the purpose, asking only 'that it be with in the power conferred upon Con gress by the constitution. We live, happily for us, in a government; of imited powers; but because, as 1 believe, the present tariff duties are utterly unconstitutional, and but robbery under the forms of law,' cannot gain my consent to vote for this Sub-'l reasury bill, which provides for the loaning of money to the people by the government and which, in my opinion, is with out constitutional authority. I be ieve, however, under that clause of the constitution which gives Con gress the power . to regulate com merce with foreign countries and among the States, that the bonded warehouse now in use for the recep tion of foreign importations might also be used at every port of entry in the United States, and others' es tablished elsewhere as well j for the reception of domestic articles, ;inv tended for export or for sale in other States, and that the govern ment could be made to receive these articles and issue "receipts there for, upon"which the holders could readiLy borrow money. This, Ijbe lieve, would answer every purpose contemplated by the Sub-Treasury plan, except that of borrowing money at a specified :cheap rate. However this may be, I know, my dear sir, that neither you nor the good and true men whom you represent would ask me to infringe in any way upon the organic law of our country, in the faithful ob servance of which alone consists the safety of our people. j Permit me to say that there is at this ..time a great responsibility rest ing upon you. There is an upris ing of the agnculturul class ot our people, the most powerful class of our society, which amounts to little short of a revolution. lhis revo- i lution is directed toward a redress of the evils arising. from unjust leg's lation. You are the chosen head and representative of that class in the State of North Carolina, one of its most honored and respected citi zens. I feel, sir, that with the free - i dom of a. friend and fellow worker of the same political faith, I may sav to vou that von may do much to prevent this popular cry for're- i ureas iiuiu ucuuiuiug a. uiauiui iui revenge. Guided within the pro per channels aud by wise counsel , I believe it is the movement for which all patriotic men in our country have waited and wished so long, i and that it will result in juater teg- slation and more equally diffused n-osperity. But if recklessly, un wisely and selfishly directed, it may result in incalculable injury to our country and especially our Southern portion of it. - ' 7 V'". I notice with pain - that much of the ill feeling of the farmers is di rected, not against the authors and upholders of this nefarious legisla tion, but against their nearest neigh bors and friends those whose in terests are as intimately connected with their own as is that of mem I con Jjers of the same household. serve that bitter feeling is springing up between town and country --be tween the farmer who his product to town and the merchant who buys it and in return 8,lls him his daily supplies that often the the farmer is taught to believe that the lawyer, the doctor or the pro fessional man is hostile to him or is i in some way responsible for the ills which he suffers. I need not say to you that this is all wrong, unwise and hurtful to a degree to all (con cerned. It saps the strength of our people and weakens their power to procure redress. We need every' body's help, because our oppressors are a great party entrenched in the strongholds of the government Naturally the redress of wrongs oc casioned by unjust legislation is the repeal of that legislation. The - i . . great Democratic party of America now in a large numerical majority, but deprived of the control . of the government by the most unscrupu lous methods, openly and almost with unanimity, favors the repeal of all the legislation of which you complain. A little strengthening of its hands, and but a little, will enable it to triumph. Its triumph will be yours. A little sapping of its strength, a little diversion j)f its- strength, a little diversion of :;ts its The ranks, will be its defeat again. defeat will likewise be yours. danger is that oppressed .freemen become impatient, and impatient men are often unwise. Your great ... i i organization is but little more than two years old it is not yet grown. It cannot look for great harvests of result, before the sowing ana the maturing of the crop, i Already wonderful things have been achiev ed. Venerable legislators, I lifelong servants of corporations and. Wall street policy have already ) come to know that there is a large class" of the American people called' farmers and who have rights and privleges like others. No greater shock for years past has been given to the sleek and comfortable recipients of class legislation than the recent pas sage through the Senate of the bill to restore the unlimited coinage and legal tender character of. silver. '.'.I. This was undoubtedly due to the Farmers' Alliance. For the past six months there has been more dis cussion upon the condition of the farmers and matters pertaining to their interests than had taken place within ten years pie vious. The more of this talk "the better Cor the farmers. Their wrongs are so pal pable that the justice of redressing them will become more and mere ir resistible as the light is turntid .on. The policy of the farmers, being now right, is to keep within the right. Demand nothing that is ille gal, ask nothing that is unreasona dle. Especially, it seems to me( they should be careful not to injure their friends. They should hold their forces in hand ready to aid those who I favor them and to strike those only who are hostile to their purposes and principles. To attempt to , make a political party of the Farmers'; Al liance for the purpose of Supplant ing either of the great parties who divide the American woukt be a great mistake. In the Sputh it could only destroy the Democratic party and leave in undisputed con trol that other Dartv which I is the author and upholder of the evils by which we are afflicted. By your own rules you exclude from membership a majority of .the communityand for that reason, alone, you should not undertake to become a political par ty. I see many indications J of that tendency which'give me much con cern. In the neighboringtStatof South Carolina there is a contest ra- ging which, as it looks to me, can only have the result of putting that State back under African rule. This, too, "among" men who profess to agree upon all matters of principle. Let us hope that we may avoid such dangerous and unseemly contests in our State. I trust much to you, my dear sir, and to the conservatism, good sense, moderation and patriot ism of the farmers of North Carolina to avoid the taking of any position Of. the doing of anything that would prevent the Democrats who are in the Alliance and the Democrats' who are not in the Alliance from work ing together for principles which are common and for interests which are general, with that harmony which so triumphantly brought us out of the house of bondage hi the period from 1870 to 1876. and which has in so great a measure re stored our State to a reasonable de gree of prosperity and credit. Let us not imitate the conduct of the Jws when their sacred city was be seiged by the Roman armies, who fought their enemies with incredi ble valor all day and fought each other with incredible fury all night. Let us, on the contrary, stand to gether and fight our common ene mies day and night. Let us strive for a reduction of taxation on the j necessaries of life for a reduction of the expenditures of the govern ment for an increase of the curren- cy and the price of farm products ' by the free coinage of silver and the restoration of its full legal tender character for a repeal of the tax upon State banks for the regula tion of transportation rates by rail road commissions, and last but not least, let us earnestly contend against that spirit of centralization which is constantly threatening to absorb the local self-governt of the people of the States.

We havr the finest prospect for a beautiful oavest this fall we have had for years; we had a good rain ou the 3d and a heavy rain yester day, m ire than we have hadsince the spring. I see a' right sin irt being said about candidates for the different couufy officers from all over the county. We have a very good set now in office, if we must change. I say injustice give them to the old Confederate Soldiers, they are fast passed away, and 1 think they de. serve some recognition at the bauds of the people. Give in W H.
