The Farmers’ Alliance is still
i booming.
As will be seen by their declar-
tion of purposes the Farmers’ Al¬
liance is not what people generally
think it is. Some think that it is
the intention of the order td break
down the merchants and profes¬
sional men. Read the declaration
and see what you think about it.
If you don’t feel like working for
the principles therein given you
had better not join. You must
practice charity, economy, hones¬
ty and truthfulness if you belong
to the Farmers’ Alliance.

Last Tuesday morning tha wife
of John#Guy, who ]ivc J i near town,
died after having given Birth to
twins. Tuesday evening the moth¬
er and two little babes were all
buried in the same grave. Mrs.
Guy was unconscious when the
doctor who Was called in ai rived
and remained so until her death.
After the burial the rumor began
to spread that bruises had been
seen upon the body of the woman
while it was being dressed, and
the rumors becamfe so pronounced
that Guy was arrested and placed
in jail to aWflit the result; of a post
mortem examination. AS w“ go
to press the coroner’s jury had not
made their verdict.
It is possible that the woman
may have bruised herself in her
struggles, though it was noticed
that before she arid during the bti-
rial that the husband failed to man-
ifest any feeling of sorrow. We
hope that the suspicion dftteL
tained by “the people will prove to

Guard Your Boys.
Parents, look well to your boys;
they need your counsel and your
care and you will be held responsi¬
ble for their course in life. Oi V
you rests the duty of fitting theiW
for a life of usefulness, and |
your devoted head will fall tht-

by dissipation and crime. When
your boy is out of your sight
you know not what influences afe
thrown around him; you know n^t
what snares are being laid for hS
young and unwary feet. The boy
on whom all your hopes are cen¬
tered may be nearing the black
rocks of ruin and despair; his life
is being shaped by his surround¬
ings. Then see that he is walk¬
ing in the right direction, Your
boy must be taught that to attsftid

them up to be an honor to
a blessing to society, or ai«fOii
letting all the good in their^nat-

They are jewels placed in your
keeping and an account will surely
be required of them at your hands.
