Whatever may be urged against the
details for carrying out the principles of
the Ocala Platform who can object to
the principles themselves? They are
just and fair and must prevail
What is party? What is any oee man
or set of men when compared with the
living principles of justice that are the
foundation of the Farmers’ Alliance. Oh,
let us stand firm by our demands and
not be side tracked by anything! If the
old party refuses to endorse our platform
let the old party go its way and we will
go ours, independently. If we do not
mesa this much we may as well never
hold another Alliance meeting, but give
up the'fight at once.
It is to be expected that many of our
■Mat trusted leaders will be bought up
fay the money power. Tbej will not al
ways use money, but in many instances
political power will buy a man quicker
than money. Let us be on our guard
and whenever a trusted leader turns
traitor to ns retire him at once.

The party that ignores the demands
of the people doe* not deserve success
and we do not believe it will again be
crowned.—Southern Alliance Farmer.
Stick to that sentiment, Bro. Irvin,
you and IJvingston and Gannt and all
the balance of the so-called Democratic
Alliancemcnt and our demands will be
sure to become a part of the law of the
land. But how does that sentiment com
pare with Lonnie's declaration to sujh
port the Democratic nominee in any
case whether the Alliance demands are
e tailored or not?
Can it be possible that we are going
to recede from the stand we have taken?
Will we support men or parties because
subsidized papers or bribed leaders com
mand us to do so? No, a thousand times
nol We realize that our homes are in
danger. The wives of our bosoms, the
prattling innocents of our own flesh and
blood demand of us os brave and fear
less men to stand firm by our first de
mands. Our order is the only thing be
tween us and anarchy. If we cannot
save the world from Oligarchy anarchy
will eventually destroy it Who ran
doubt this assereion? He who does is
not awake to the signs of the times.
What means all the labor organizations?
Are not the laboring dames compelled to
form secret societies for the purpose of
self-preservation against the cunningly
devised robberies of the aristocratic
classes? Who believes that the execu
tion of the Chicago anarchists destroyed
the organization? Does the execution
or banishment of the Russian nihilists
annihilate the order in Russia? Is it
not a fact that these dangerous elements
that are but the natual outgrowth of
oppressive system, a system that ©
tinually tends to create a privileged and
an aristocratic class at tho expense of
the laboring element. I say is it
fact that the dangerous element of dis
traction is growing stronger, more
gerous and threatening •very day?
proud and haughty rich, what protection
will your untold millions give you when
human nature can no longer endure
your unjust laws?
One of the moit important trees intro
duced into this country from Japan is
the Japanese Chestnut The tree is
said to be a valuable timber tree. It is
a rapid grower and bears young. We
have had trees two yean old from the
seed bear foil of fine, well matured nuts
while standing in the nursery rows. The
fiesh of the nut is somewhat coarser than
the common American chestnut com
monly sees in our stores, but the flavor
is good and the nuts are several times
larger than the ordinary American pro
duct. The prices of the fruit is very
high; have never known them to sell for
leas than 20 cents per pound at whole
sale. Of course when the prodqct of
this country becomes large the price will
inevitably drop much lower, but at one-
half or even one-fourth that price there
is big profit in them. A chestnut grove
in connection with a pecan grove is one
of the beat investments we know of. In
from three to five years chestnut trees
can safely be counted on to produce a
crop. The most objection that has been
urgfed against planting the pecan is the
long time it takes a grove to c&rae into
bearing, but with every other tree or ev
ery other row alternating with chestnuts
this difficulty can be flver come. Farm
ers, when you get tired of trying other
things, suppose yoa give nut culture an
Investigation. We think you will find
the statement* made here strictly ac
cording to the facts, and it seems like
nut gathering will be more pleasant than
picking tobacco worms, or even the
snowy cotton. And another thing, nuis
do not have to be gathered and marketed
in a day, but will, with proper care,
keep fresh and nice for months hence,
can be put on the market at the most
favorable time. What better thing can
you want than nut culture? Give it a
fair trial and the results will astonish
you.
It is nst too late to plant trees and
will not be tor some time yet The
winter has been cool enough to keep
them perfectly dormant, and as long as
they remain in that condition they are
all right for transplanting.
Do not buy trees from distant uurser-
i. We say this not simply because w
are interested, but because trees grown
in the same latitude as that in which
they are to be transplanted will inva
riably give better results.
Trees of all kinds need just as much
care, to obtain best results as a crop of
corn or cotton. If properly cared for
they will pay better than any thing else
you can plant, but neglect is not the
kind of fertilizer they need.
Do not expect good results from an
orchard planted on land not well drained.
If your land is wet, ditch it ami then
plant out your orchard.
Let us get out of the old rats in which
we have so long drifted and put more
thought into our work. Instead of doing
things simply because our fathers did
them before us let us think “does it pay
to do this way?” Let us see if we cannot

We who are the honest tillers of the
•oil have thought of all these dangers
and it is for your sake* as well as ours,
that we are seeking to revolutionize the
present |unjust and oppressive system
and in its stead establish one of “equal
rights to all and special privileges to
none.” This can be done now without
the shedding of one drop of blood. It
can be done peaceably and successfully
if all liberty loving, law abiding citizens
will help us. We beg of you; we plead
earnestly with you, whoever you may
be, to face the signs' of the times like
men and help us' In an honest effort to
save our civilization from the distraction
that surely awaits it if the present uqjust
system is permitted to continue for at
moat a century longer.
WARESBORO.
Waresboro is one of the most impor
tant towns in Ware county, thq largest
place, in fact, outside of Waycross. It
an old place, having been settled
years before Waycross sprung into exis
tence. It was formerly the county site of
Ware county, and the center of trade
for miles and miles around. Farmers
hauled their produce for thirty-five or
forty miles to the.Wares boro market, ex
changing the fruit of their honest labor
the farm for such articles of merchan
dise as were needed at their homes.
While Wares boro does not control the
trade it did at one time, a great deal of
business is transacted there. There are
seven or eight mercantile establishments,
all of which are doing a thriving busi
ness. There is a grist mill and cotton
gin located at Wares boro, owned by J.
W. Davidson, ex-mayor of the town. It
is not only a great convenience to the
people but a source of revenue to the
proprietor.
Waresboro can boast of the largest
man in the county—Major Spence. He
is not only the heaviest man, but has a
Urge and warm a heart as ever beat ii
the breast of man.
A new saw will ia being put up in
the town to be owned and operated by
Mr. Maugham, late of worth county.
The Waresboro high school, in charge;
of Prof Settle and a strong corps of as
sistants, is one of the best institutions of
learning in the country, outride of
cities. It is well patronized.

IODIDE OP POTASH.
It would be very difficult to prriudice a
physician against the use of Iodide of Potash.
Every intelligent medical student knows
Every intelligent medical student kno
that Iodide of Potash is considered by ev<
high authority, to be a specific for severe
blood diseases. The only objection to' its
use in simple solution wonhl do more harm
than good, and for this reason many physi
cians recommend it taken with Dr. John
Bull’s Sarsaparilla. When thus taken it
leaves no evil after effects and no injury is
done to the stomach, liver and kidneys.
One-half ounce of Iodide of Potash added to
bottle of
Dr. Jska Boll's SuMparllla.
equals five grains to a table-spoonful of the
compound. Try this in severe cases of
rheumatism, etc., when the system needs a
powerful alterative. Large bottle (192 tea
spoonfuls) $1,00.
