But the people couldn’t very well dd with¬ out it. 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.
