THE FINANCIAL. POLITY OF THE
NATIONAL ALLIANCE.
First—We demand the abolition of
national banks. We demand that the
government shall establish sub treasu
ries or depositories in tbe several states
which shall loan mon»_r direct to the
people at a low rate of interest, not to
exceed 2 per cent per annum, on non
perishable farm prodacts, and also up
on real estate, with proper limitation,
upon a quantity of land and amouut of
money. We demand that the amount
of circulat ng medium be speedily in
creased to not less than SSO per capi
ta.
Second—We demand that congress
pass such laws as shall effectually pre
vent dealing iu futures on all agricul
tural and mechanical productions, pro
viding a stringent system of procedure
iu trials, such as shall secure prompt
conviction and the imposition of such
penalties as shall secure the most per
fect compliance with the law.
Third—We condemn tbe silver bill
recently passed by congress, and de
mand in lieu thereof free and unlimited
coinage of silver.
Fourth—We demand the passage of
Jaws prohibiting alien ownership of
land, and that congress take prompt
action to devise some plan to obtain all
lauds now owned hy aliens and foreign
syndicates; and that all lauds now
held by railroads and other corpora
tions in excess of such as is actually
used and needed by them be reclaim
ed hy the government and held for ac
tual settlers only.
Fifth—Believing in the doctrii o of
equal rights to all and special privileg
es to none, we demand that our nation
al legislation be so framed in future as
not to build up one industry at the ex
pense of another. We further demand
the removal of the existing heavy tar
iff tax from the necessaries of life, that
the poor of onr land must have. We
further demaud a just and equal system
of graduated tax on incomes. We be
lieve that the money of the country
should be kept as much as possible iu
the hauds of the people, and hence we
demand that all national and state rev
enues shall be limited to the necessary
expenses of government, purely and
honesty administered.
Sixth—We demand the most rigid,
honest and just state and national gov
ernmental control and supervision of
means of public communication and
transportation, and if this control and
sujiervision does tot remove the alius
es, we demand government ownership
of such means of communication and
transportation.
We clip the foregoing from the pro
ceeding of the National Alliance con
vention recently held at Ocola, Fla.
In the main the principles laid down
are sound. There is nothing more
just to the people than that the govern
ment should abolish the national bank
ing system- This pernicious method
may truthfully be said to embody the
preponderance of our financial troub
les. Here is a privileged class on
whom the government lavishes its
wealth, and throws a protection mound
them that precludes the posibility of
of private corporations doing a hank
ing business, because of a ten per cent
tax laid on them in favor of the na
tional banking system, lty all means
the pleple should din their demand in
to the ears of congress until they dem
olish the system.
Mr. Thomas I). Stewart, of McDon
ough, has offered the most sensible
theory for cheap money we have yet
beirrd of. He insists that it should be
the first duty of congress to abolish the
national banking law. Then, instead
of inaugurating the subtreasury scheme
for the loan of money by the govern
ment at a nominal rate,they would form
strong cotton warehouse companies. If
a farmer desired to deposit his cotton
he could do so, making bis bales to
weigh not less than 450 pounds. If
he needed an advance on the cotton
the company would issue him a S3O.
certificate of deposit or less ; which
would have the appearance of a bank
bill. This certificate, then, being bas
ed on a bale of cotton, ordinarily worth
$45, would enter at once on its mission
as a circulating medium, thus putting
millions of dollars into circulation with
out a cents interest being paid to any
one. In the mean time should the cot
ton rise, the depositor could sell and
realize on the advance. The S3O. cer
tificate could be releemed at any time,
by a foreign or borne holder, by being
presented to the' warehouse company
who would have the bale of cotton, or
S3O. deposited with them by the origi
ual depositor should lie sell the cotton.
On the whole the Stewart plan is
eminently feasible, and those who
want a subtreasury bill or “something
better” would do well to give this plan
a thorough investigation.
We think it wise that the people
should demand of the government that
the lands of the country should not be
bought by foreigners. Millions of ac
res are now owned by foreign noble
men aud arristocrats. '1 be tendency
it dangerous t > dem cmtic principles.;
I Sooner or later these nobobs will en
deavor to legialate for the people
Stop them now and avoid trouble.
As to the tariff reform clause it is
sound and was ratified by the people
on the 4, of November.
The free coinage of silver is a con
sumation devoutly to be hoped for, and
if let alone the democrats will give the
country such a hill.
As to government control of rail
roads and other public carriers, iu an
absolute souse, the project is fraught
with no little danger to the people.
There is now a great outcry against
the lepublicans for essaying to pass a
national election law—that is taking
the elections out of the bauds of the
people by the national government.
With their tendency to centralize the
government, the republicans would
fortify themselves behind so many
newly created offices as a government
control of rail roads etc. would entail,
that the people could not dislodge
them. Having coDtrol of the railroads
and steamboats, they would submerge
any portion of the country that did not
vote to their liking with federal sol
diers, and force elections at the point
of the bayonet. We charge this be
cause they party ef revolutionist,
and it is unsafe to give them any more
power than they now have. Instead
of increasing federal jurisdiction it were
better for the masses that it be dimin
ished.
The despotisms of Europe control
the railroads for the purpose of mak
ing war on their neighbors. God for
bid that the people of this country
should even so far forget themselves
as to put the government in a position
to oppress them. We can min age
railroads by our legislatures; and :f
they fail to give us all we ask for that
would be better than having a new'
master with an iron heel.

Competitive Farming.
Every far mer kuows that under fa
vorable conditions, our laud can be
made to produce euormous crops.
There are scores of Henry county far
mers, this year, who have made a bale
of cottou per acre ; and quite a respec
table number who have made two bales
per acre. All of this has been done
without rivalry.
Suppose that every farming commu
nity offets a decent premium for the best
acre of corn, cotton, potatoes, wheat,
oats aud ribbou cane. Let clubs of
from ten to one hundred or more con
tribute one dollar each to he divided
iuto throe premiums, for the first sec
ond ami third best acre of any of the
above named products.
If this be doue there is no doubt
that some of our good faimers will
break the record by making three bales
of cotton per acre and a hundred and
fifty bushels of corn.
Nothing will so greatly conduce to
the development of the greatest possi
ble production of our lands as compet
ing for prizes. The small amount con
tributed by each one will not be felt*
but where a good number join in a
club a premium sufficiently great can
b; raised to make it worth the while
of all to strive to win the capital prize
by using their utmost eudeavors to that
end.
These matters cau be arranged by
clubs wbo can appoint committees to
look after the various crops of contest
ants. •*.
TWBL jibject that we have thought
of c. usrererably, but as we have no well
digested plan to offer, hope that those
who feel an interest in the advance
ment of intensive agriculture will give
the faimers their views on the subject.
Cold Waves.
Ab predicted with reliable accuracy,
and people liable to the pains and
aches of rheumatism dread every
change to damp or stormy weather.
Although Hood’s Sarsaparilla is not
claimed to be a positive specific for
rheumatism, the lemarkable cures it
has effected show that it may be taken
for this complaint with reasonable cer
taiuty of beuefit. Its action in neut
ralizing the ascidity of the bloo'l, which
is the cause of rheumatism, constitutes
the secret of the success of Hood’s
Sarsaparilla. If you suffer from
rheumatism, give Hood’s Sarsaparilla
a fair trial.

It is now considerably less than a
month until the election for county of
ficers. Every one knows the condil'o ,
of Henry county politics. And all re
gret that our worthy friend, Newt
Glass, is compelled to contest again Io»
the office that the organized democracy
gave him more than three months ago.
There is no need that this contest
should he thrust upon ihe people just
now, when a rabid republican congress
declares that it will give the negroes
of the South a force hill which will
compell white men to stand hack n g
election managers and allow negroes
and republicans to defraud us of our
rights as citizehs at the polls. Any
shade of independentism partakes of
this condition of things. We know
that there will be some good democrats
who will vote for the independent be
cause they like the man ; many of those
who will support him aie our watm,
personal friends, and to such friends we
say in all kindness, “remember that
should you defeat your p r esent sheriff,
who is a tried and true dera crat, who
has never flinched from duty, though
he has been often assaulted by desper
adoes wiih deadly weapons, you will
lend aid and comfort to your enemies
at the north. Stand by your nominee,
and if the opposition to the nominated
ticket deserves help the people will
render assistance when he comes in the
garb of an organized democrat.”
It should he the duty of every elec
tion manager to keep a list of defaul
ters, and when they present themselves
to vote chalengo them. Aud should
any defaulter vote it will be the duty
of the gland jury at the spring term to
indict them.

The average weight of the hundred is

All this was done on a two mule
farm, eighty acres being devoted to

Ten years ago this land was so poor
it was not worth tending. One half of

The Southern Farm, which was es
tah'ished by the late lumentc I Henry

best work of his life, will contain it
December number a complete account
of how George Truitt secured these
enormous yields. No farmer can afford
to do without The Farm, and especial

contain 64 | ages chock full of tli6 most
interesting matter ever crowded into

The Southern Farm easily retains
the lead <>f all other agricultural papers
in the South, and with Dr. Jones at its
helm, ami with the able corps of cou
tributors it has, is doing for the South
the very work which its lamented foun
der intended it should do. In placing
before the public George Truitt’s metli i

tell of which reads like fiction, it gives
common sense instruction to the farm

w hich they must all come to if thej
would be successful—the intensive '
plan. Dr. June’s “Thoughts for the I

necessity in this country for a primary, so
fai as it relates to county politics.
