If we could all lay aside our sectional
prejudices and realise the fact that we
are one country instead of a North
South or an East or West, we would not
be long in deciding what is l>est to do
this time that tries men’s souls. The
Alliance, as a strictly non-|»artizun
gamut ion, has decided upon a sei
principles that they honestly believe to
be right and just and have plead for all
parties and all men to consider them
calmly and dispationalely. Wc have
invited free and fair discussion from all
fair minded men, hut have weg«*tit?
Have we not rather got ridicule and
abuse instead of argument anti reason ?
We have not insisted ii|m»ii our demands,
if those who are rx|»erieiiced in law
making would show u.s where they wore
faulty an«I give us something 1 teller.
We have from the Iteginning begged, al-
rntsit u|M>ii our knees, for something
better if our demand* were faulty. Hut
have we got the something better? Has
Congress even so much as permitted our
demand* to In* discussed in our legisla
tive halls? I* there any prospect* that
they will jN-rmit them Co In* discussed ?
What can we do about it? Shall we
stick to our principles and never give up
until they an* enacted into the law of
tin* land, or shall we give up to become
forever mere Serf* to the money jiower?
If we do the latter let us understand
clearly that our children and our chil
dren's -hildrcn will never know the val
ue of freedom, hut will he Utuml ah
hopelessly as are the serf of Russia. If
we are men will we not lay aside our
sectional strife and once and forever
break the fetters with which the Oligar
chy is seeking to hind us ? Oh ! let us
not give up, no. Victory is not for oil" if
we will only In* true to our principles.
I/'t us Ik* American citizen*, and not *r-
tiunnt citizen*. Ia*t us by all means hold
«*ur Alliance organisation together. It
is the only thing between our homes
and ruin. Let u* hold it firmly behind
all political parties and say to every* one
of them; “Grant us justice or we will
not sup|N»rt you.” Remember the at
tempt* that the money (tower has all
along made to disrupt us ami destroy us,
remember the abuses and^ slanders they
have hea|H*d upon us, remember the vic
tory we gained over the cotton bagging
trust, and a bow all, remember what we
have accomplished in the line of educat
ing ourselves in the science of govern
ment during the three years just passed,
and then ask yourselves if we cannot do
as much in the next force y<
have in the past three. Consider all
the** things carefully and then
back to the Alliance, pay up your dues
and join hands with us onc»
the upbuilding of the farming communi
ties regardless of political affiliation*.
What if some one does belong to the
order that lacks intelligence. What if
you have had a disagreement with some
brother, or do not like the stand taken
by the majority on the fct. lxmis
volition. You cannot a fiord to alum don
the order. Remember that you are qot
ltound to any perty because you belong
to the Alliance. The Alliance has not
sought to force any one to support any
. political party and has no right to do so.
Its endorsement of the St Isniia conven
tion should not be construed as forcing
any one dissenting from it into a sup
port of it against their wilt Let us
reason together and stand firmly by the
principle* of pure lVmocracy a* set
forth in the Ocala platform, ami the
- tinr* will come when we will he proud
of the true stand that vre have taken,
an*l future general ion* will he proud to
point to us as their ancestors.
Middle aged men most remember how
eery different tho celebration of the
Fourth of Jnly was during their boy
hood from what it is in these days.
Everything of course scorns tame after
maturity in contrast with its seeming in
our early toens.
The civil war, with its terrible tension,
solicitude, agitation, uncertainty, made
the youngest of us feel ohL
But, apart from age aud event, tho
Fourth has iu its observance long ceased
to be what it was l«**foro the war. That
great strife naturally dwarfed tho minor
but not less heroic struggle of the last
century and rendered us comjtaratively
indifferent to its commemoration. We
should still remember, however, that
independence was won by trials, by
hmrdshi(M, by unflinching fortitude, to
which in our later abundance and pros
perity wo were necessarily strangers.
In this generation wo can scarcely
realize, so altered are our surroundings,
what our forefathers endured, suffered
and dared, us colonists, in taking up
arms against tho exactions aud oppres
sions of the mother country—one of tho
strongest governments and greatest pow
ers of the Old World. They did not
hesitate to opposo regular, disciplined
soldiers, who bad fought on many fields,
with ran* recruits, having no other weap
on* than such as they could get in
emergency, and no other hopo than that
inspired by love of freedom, and the
resolution to resist tyranny to the death.
Those were indeed tho times to test
courago and patriotism, anti the hardy
colonists never winced or faltered.
It is pleasant to recall the ringing
words of Patrick Henry at the begin
ning of tho troubles, when ho declared
at the old Continental congress in Phila
delphia, in 1774: "British oppression has
effaced tho boundaries of tho colonies.
Tho distinctions between Virginians,
New Yorkers, Pennsylvanians and New
Englanders are no more. 1 am not a Vir
ginian; 1 am an American!” Tho seven
arduous, often desperate, years of the
Revolution, in which wo were so gener
ously aided by tho French, proved the
stuff we were mado of. Always without
money, often without f*>od or clothing
or any proper equipment for war, Wash
ington sustained defeat after defeat with
equanimity uml unfailing courage, and
his cause at last at Yorktown. De
feat and disaster never diminished his
faith in ultimate triumph or dampened
his excessive ardor. Within tlireo
months, during 17S0, two American
armies, numerous for that day,
destroyed, anti tho most formidable of
tho (tartisan lands in the south, under
Snmter, was dispersed by Tarleton.
Nevertheless a detachment from Corn
wallis* forces was wholly defeated in
North Carolina, at King’s mountain, by
900of our militia, and 1,100 of the enemy
were killed, wounded and captured.
Thus failure and success alternated until
the final and complete victory gained by
tho surrender of Cornwallis, with more
than S.0U0 men. including sailors.
Our troops raised dnriug the Revolu
tion numbered soma 230,000 Continental
soldiers and -76,000 militia How small
this force seems, compared with the
grand armies tho north and south mar-
shahs! in 1861-5: how insignificant the
cost of life and treasure then to the esti
mate in the later struggle, of a loss of a
million of men and more thau a billion
of money. But in tho civil war the
Union was immensely rich; it had un
limited credit; we were provided with
every martial requirement. In 1776-83
the gallant patriots marched often over
frozen roatls with shoeless and bleeding
feet; fought while half famished and
half clad: left their plows in the farrow;
quitted the honest with scythes in their
hsrnb to give their lives, if need be, for
independence. They were iulrepid sons
of intrepid sires; they were genuine grit,
of unconquerable stock.
Too much honor cannot lw paid them
We, their descendants, should always
keep their memory green. * Their ex
ample should never be permitted to
grow dim. We should not allow the
celebration of the glorious Fourth to
languish. We oweittothem tokeepitnp
as we did in the earlier days, when we
boys. We are boys now. though
of an older sort; wo should l*e boys in
our enthusiasm and rejoicing over the
immortal day that disclosed the spirit of
1776, commemorative of the stern pe
riod that put us to the proof, that tried
us by Groin the crucible of adversity
and brought us out pure gold.
Let us observe the Fourth as afore
time. with boo fire* and illuminations,
with music and cannon, with fireworks
and reading the Declaration, with Urge
assemblies and patriotic speeches, with
every form of sympathy and demon
stration belonging to the day and de
serving of ourselves.
