BiuiniEii Smith, of Cotfee county, is going to be the messenger of the next house, and his genial smile will again brighten the legislature. We have a private letter from a friend in Buffalo, New York,who says: “Fight for the sub-treasury bill, it will kill the national banks and be the sa vior of our nation.” The Sub-treasury bill will prevent the speculator from taking the crop at his own price. The farmers are the only people on earth who have a right to price their own products. ■' • * What could induce the Great Beast Butler, of Massachusetts, and Foraker, to enter a corporation known as the Geor gia and Alabama improvement Company'.’ Do they realy want to improve this country? Sir. Moses Maktln, that good and efficient door-keeper of the house, again presents his claims for election to that po sition. Uncle Moses can’t do much farm work on that one log, but he makes a splendid door-keeper. ♦ -MM- » 4 Since the election the indications are that a [good portion of the Alliahce strength is crystalizing around ex-Gov ernor Henry 11. .McDaniel as successor to Senator Brown in the United States senate. Don’t be deceived. If Governor Gor don is elected to the United States senate, all this talk about the railroads lighting him will be forgotten, and his election will be considered the defeat of the Alli ance. If any meins can be devised by which to persecute the Alliance and destroy its strength, the plotters for the defeat of the sub-tyeasury bill will lind them. No people working to free themselves from opression, ever met with such unrelent ing persecution as the Farmers Alliance is meeting in Georgia. Brethren, doh’t think that we do not want to publish your letters. We have hundreds of communications that we will publish as soon as possible. We cannot get them all in at once, but in tend to do all in our power to give our readers the benenefit of all. The races at Columbus during the Chattahoochee Exposition will be very fine. Send to Cliff B. Grimes, secretary and treasurer, for premium list. Don’t forget to have your best corn, cotton, pigs and potatoes on exhibition there. These fairs get up a spirit of rivalry which will do great good in all the branches of industry. The Alliancemen seem to be pretty numerous in the register of the next leg islature —33 in the senate and 131 in the house. An Alliance governor and com missioner of agaicultiwe elected for the .next two years, and the election of a sub treasury man in full sympathy with all the Alliance principles, assured. Now, to put in the congressmen who have espoused our cause and get the senatorial quggtion settled and the work will SOUTHERN ALLIANCE FARMER ATLANTA, GA., OCTOBER 14, 1890 WHERE DOES IT BELONG? On Saturday, October 4, the soreheads of Douglas county held a mass meeting of what they call “straight-out, hard shell democrats.” (Perhaps they get the name of ‘straight-outs’ because they walk straight out of the party without sense or reason). They adopted a mani festo of twelve long paragraphs, in which all of the evils of the day and all dissen sions in the party are charged to Alliance. Even their own disgruntled movement is charged to us. We quote below the 11th and 12 th arti cles of their creed, and simply ask if any one can read them and doubt our charge that they come from the light on the Alliance and Col. Livingston, which is intended to buldoze Livingston into forc ing the Alliance to support Gordon for the United States senate: 11. These same leaders !>}• their policy <d pro scription and advocating measures foreign to the principles of the democratic party have rent the party in twain, where peace and har mony reigned before—now diicord and division. 12. The lion. L. F. Livingston is the chief of these demagogues and leaders at the head of the institution, and, as we believe, more to blame for this state of affairs than any other one man, and therefore we cannot and will not sup port him for coneress. IVe could name many more things which the leaders of this organ zation have done, but will name only cue moie, and that is that all their plans and methods are laid and conceived in secret meetings from which many true and tri.il democrats are excluded because of the business they follow or profession they belong to, and 1 or no other reason. We assert that such proceedings are undemo cratic and unrepnblican, they are unheard, of iu the democratic party and contrary to its histo ry, principles and policy. And that to democrat is bound by any action they may take iu tne name of the party. We are unalterably opposed to any man who opposes John B. Gordon for U. S. senator. We therefore ask all genuine, dyed-in-the wool, hard-shell democrats to unite with us and assist in compassing the defeat of this man and his pet measure. W. K. Glovbb, W. V. Boatbight, W. C. Baggett, W. A. James, W. J. Abercrombie, And many others. THE CALL FOR A CONVENTION. We hereby request all democrats in the differ ent counties of the fifth congressional district who are opposed to Co'. L. F. Livingston and the sub-treasury bill, aud in favor of Gen. Gor don for senator, to semi delegates to a convention to be held in Atlanta on Saturday, October 11, 1890, in the court house at 11 o’clock a. m., for the purpose of nominating or endorsing ii can didate for congress.

We have said repeatedly that the sub treasury bill was winning its way into the hearts of men of all classes. To en able our readers to see that supporters to our measures were not confined to the farming class alone, we addressed a let ter Maj. J. F. Hanson, of Macon, re questing him to give his views upou this most important subject. Maj. Hanson is sn earnest and honest man; a fine business man, a successful financier, and a forcible writer. At pres ent he is largely interested in the manu facture of cotton goods and has made a success of the business. It is the opin ion, not only of a business man, a finan cier, but the opinion of a spinner, whois one of the buyers and consumers of our great staple crop, that we are able to present to our readers. While we have presented the sub treasury bill as seen from the position of farmers and lawyers, we have not, pre vious to this, given the views of a manu facturer. It is a fact that the spinner is not the man who corners our crop or forces its price below its cost of production, but the speculator who buys up the crop and sells to the spinner as bis trade de mands it and makes a good profit by the transaction. The sub treasury will ena ble us to reach the spinner as he needs our crop, without the intervention of the speculator. In succeeding issues of our paper we hope to present to our readers the views of men from other classes of business, and to show that the better element of the business world, the great conserva tive, unprejudiced, thinking element, has recognized the justice of our cause and the wisdom of our measure. Read Maj. Hanson’s letter and see how fairly and forcibly he treats the subject. STOCK IN OCR PAPER. The effort to damage our paper and de tract from its influence by claiming that the money power is behind it, is public, but that our brethen may know just ex actly how it stands, we make this state ment: . Every dollar of stock in the paper is owned by true and devoted Allianeemen, except a portion owned by Mr. W. 11. Huguley, of West Point, Ga., who is in hearty sympathy with us. His stock was issued in payment for his part of the old Southern Alliance which the company bought. These men are all southern men and democrats, and the books are open to any brother who doubts it. Not one dollar in the paper or “behind” it has any dirt on it, and the Alliance people know it. We neither care for the opin ions or spleen of those who wilfully and wantonly misrepresent us. The interest demanded by the present banking system is too high. When we can bank upon staple and non-perishable farm products and upou real estate, inter est will grow beautifully less. Some of the muds from the Okefeno kee Swamp got transported into Lump kin county by some mysterious means, bu > Lumpkin county don’t propose to let it stay there—it is going to clean it up. On the 15th instant the farmers of Cass county will have a hundred or more bales of cotton at Cassville for sale, and buyers are ijivited to come and purchase. This will be a good opportunity to buy a choice lot of cotton for special order. If the clause which prevents national banks from loaning money on real estate were stricken from the law, and the ten per cent tax on state banks abolished, no one would object to the law, but we would demand the sub-treasury bill all the same. That law which will enable the farmer to sell his crop as the demands of the world call for it, and at that fair price which the supply will guarantee under a normal condition of trade, is the law we need. That law is the sub-treasury bill. ——- ..... llox. Tuos. E. Winn is making a great figlft for congress in the 9th district. The mountain counties are said to be solid for him and his opponents are los ing ground. If the mountain boys are for him he is safe. One of t,he straight-out Jeffersonians of Douglas county is opposed to Living ston on the sub treasury plan, is now running a big distillery. Os course he forgets that whisky distilling is run for a class and protected by the government. Worse, indeed, than all the sub-treasu ries. The Jefferson county fair comes off the last week of tills month. A large crowd is expected. On the 29th the vet erans will assemble and listen to an ad dress from Gov. Gordon. The :’>Oth will be Alliance day and speeches from prom inent members of the order will be heard. We hope this fair will result in good to the agriculturalists of Jefferson and ad joining counties. There have seen several representa tives elect to the next legislature, in our office recently, who say they are deter mined to have the Okefenokee swamp matter investigated. It is said that all of the Linderman letter has not been pub lished yet, and that Mr. Linderman pan tell much more on the subject. Let it come. If the thing is rotten, and it thumps like it is, the people ought to know it. Read the able article in this paper from the pen cf Hon. W. E. 11. Searcy. He is a working man of the Spalding County Alliance. Has built up great Alliance enterprises at Griflin and is do ing as much to advance the material in terests of the farmers of his section as any man in Georgia. The order can al ways afford to listen to a man who is working for his fellow-men. Brother Searcy’s heart is in the right place, and his hands and head are at work for the people. It is currently stated that the chair man of the railroad commission, Cpl. L. N. Trammell, is one of the most active partisan supporters of Gov. Gordon in his fight against the Alliance. This suggests that the best interests of the state would be served if the next legisla ture should pass a law requiring the rail road commissioner to be elected by a vote of the people. This would remove the inducement for partisan support of any governor as a reward for appoint ment to office, and would result in equal ly as able and worthy men as Col. Tram mell being placed on this commission. The next legislature of Georgia, both the senate and house, is made up of over 75 per cent of Alliancemen. The eyes of the whole country, therefore, will be upon that body at its next session, and especially will the enemies of the Alli ance watch its proceedings closely in or der to proclaim to the world every mis take that may be made. We predict, however, that our enemies will have few grounds upon which to criticize. The legislature just elected is made up of the most conservative men in the state. Men who have the deepest interest in the welfare of the state. Men who will come here to the capital and dispatch the businesss of the people without any adjourned session to next summer. Men who will work early and late, and give value received for the per diem the state pays them. We expect to see this legislature to pass all needed laws and kill all bad and vicious measures that may come before it. The burden of administering affaiis iu Georgia for the next two years is on Al liaucemen, and it will be properly borne to the credit of our order and the good of the state. One question in which the people of Georgia are concerned is, who was Mr. Frank Hall’s counselor during the Oke fenokee campaign. The Exchange is now up with orders for cot ton bagging and can snip it upon short notice. Wehave yet quite a large quantity of it bought to be delivered in October and November, and Alllanoemen will be expected to use it. Brother C. L. Maddox, of Simon, Ga.. writes a ringing good letter. Cotton bag ging all the go.< He speaks very hopeful of tneir future. ENDORSEMENTS. Far some Lrne past the politicians and all elements fighting the Alliance, have combined in holding so-called mass meetings about over the state for the purpose of endorsiug Governor Gordon for the United States senatorship. Now that the election is over and the time is past when pledges aud promisses could be extorted by threats of iudepenAnt ism or other bull-dczing a large number of Alliances throughout the state have seen proper to calmly and orderly ex press their views by appropriate reso lutions on the senatorial situation. Os course all the 1 ewspapers in the state opposed to the Alliance, aud every one of which is supporting Gordon,have raised a howl aboat the course of the Alliance in these resolutions. If it had been before the election the same howl would have gone up. They ignor the fact that Governor Gor don started this endorsement business, or else think that the Alliance has no right to a voice in anything. It makes but little difference now as to what our enemies have to say or do as regards our actions in this matter. More than three-fourths of the legislature just elected are Allianeemen. Governor Gordon has been utterly routed iu his attack on the Alliance,and his defeat is assured. We call attention to the last expiring wail against the Alliance for passingres* elutions condemning Governor Gordon's course, and calling on the members of the legislature to vote for no man for United States senator who is not in har mony with the Alliance and its princi ples for the following reasons : Ist. lu.order to show that the Alliance did not start the passing of resolutions of endorsement for United States senator, but on the contrary, Governor Gordon aud bis friends were the first to move in this regard. 2nd. in order to emphasize the denial of the charge heretofore made that the Alliance leaders and this paper were the sole cause of the issue made with Gov ernor Gordon, and that the rank and file of the Alliance were for him. The spontaneous passage by numerous County Alliances in every quarter of the state without any suggestions from any Alliance leader or from this paper,shows conclusively that the people are against Governor Gordon in his present light on the Alliance, and that instead of the opposition to him being inspired by the leaders, it in reality comes Irom the rank and file of our great order, who deeply resent Governor Gordon’s attack on the Alliance and its principles. And lastly we call attention to it in order to assure our enemies that no Alli ance in the state will be deterred from passing such resolutions as it sees prop er on the subject of the senatorship by reason of any hue or cry they may raise. This is a fre country, and because the farmers Lave neglected to look after their interests in the past, is no reasjn they should be deprived of that right in the future. A OVATION INDEED. It was our pleasure to be at Carters ville, ou the 7th infant, to hear the great three-sided debate between Everette, Hargrove aud Hamilton, lion. JI. E. Ev erette, (who is vice-president of the Geor gia State Alliance) is the regular nomi nee of the democracy of the 7th congres sional district. Mr. Zach Hargrove is the nominee of the republican party of that district, while Colonel Hamilton was there to represent the cause of Dr. W. 11. Felton, who is the nominee of about forty-seven sore-heads of the same district. The speeches were ul) well received and no unpleasantness resulted. True the people were not anxious to listen to Colonel Hamiton’s abuse of the Alliance and its methods, but Colonel Everette re quested them to give his opponent a pa tient and respectful hearing, which they did.; After the first speeches were ended, Mr. Waren Aiken, chairman of the meet ing introduced Colonel Seaborn Wright, whom he called the Nestor of the people It was never our pleasure to listen to a more perfect campaign speech. For more than an hour that vast crowd, which could only find standing room in the house, was held spellbound by the power of the speaker. We have never seen a man who could carry an audience with him and work them at will, more perfectly than Mr. Wright. He would jpove his audience to laughter, shouts, tears and the widest hurrahs, as he wish ed; and when he would call Dr. Felton the nominee of the Rome yearling club, and Colonel Hamilton the high-cockalorum of that club, the crowd went wild. When the speeches were ended, Colo nel Aiken addressed the crowd as fol lows: “All who intend to work for and vote for R. W. Everette for congress on fourth day of November next, march right through this stand him by the hand." Not more more than twenty men refused to shake hands and pledge to support Everette. Those were the few Felton men who slipped out the door and left. We have heard of ovations, but the one given Everette at Cartersville,was the greatest that we have ever seen given to a man before. MISLEADING. There is a small number of men in each county who are against the Alliance on all questions, and also a small crowd who are in favor of General Gordon for any thing he wants, whether it is to their in terest or to the interest of the great mass of the people or not. These small fac tions are always on hand at the Gordon meetings, and with great gush and en thusiasm pass resolutions endorsing Gov. Gordon for the senate. Generally about twenty-live men vote for these resolutions and head them in this way: Therelre be it resolved, I bat the democracy of this county endorse Gen. John B. Gordon for the United States Senate,” etc., etc. The facts an! that these men represent only themselves, and yet they send out their resolutions for publication and to mislead the people. On the other hand, the County Alliance of the same county, representing the Allianeemen of the county who are a majority of the democracy of the.county, meet together and demand that the rep resentatives of the county vote against Gordon for the senate. Now which of these meetings are rep resentative? It is an easy matter for a few friends to get together and put in some cut and dried resolutions ata little mass meeting where Gov. Gordon speaks. The people love Gov. Gordon and do not want to wound him by voting down the resolutions before his face. They know it represents but a small per cent of the people and let it pass; but the resolu tions go to the world as the sentiment of the democracy. That is misleading. What, then, of the Alliance, which is the real of three-fourths of the democracy? They simply meet as an Alliance and express their desirewanil put. it before the world, making no at tempt to deceive the public. The people know that these Alliance resolutions mean something and it is not necessary for them to say how much of the mass of the people they represent. They have no desire to mislead, and nothing to gain by any attempt to deceive. A mass meeting of the democracy Os a county cannot be binding upon democrat ic representatives and cannot express the will of that party unless it be called by the democratic executive committee of the county for that specific purpose, and proper publication of the call be given aud its objects made known, so that all the people may be present and ex press their wishes in the matter. When this is done the will of the people can be made known, but little handfuls of men who rush together do not represent the democracy and should not be allowed to deceive them. The Alliance is not try ing to mislead anyone and as an evidence of their good faith they have in every ease submitted to the will of the people, whether expressed by primarias or mass meeting, which have been properly called. PUT IN ITS PROPER LIGHT. We have known that the report being spread abroad by Governor Gordon and his friends, that President Polk said that the sub-treasury bill was dead, would be properly corrected, aud we have had nothing to say about it. We do not mean to say that parties who have been telling it wilfully misquoted President Polk, but they only used the parts of his remarks which suited their purpose. That Colonel Polk should be canvassing the country in behalf of a measure which he openly stated was dead, never to be resurrected, was too pediculous for cre dence. His card which appeared in last Thurs day’s Copstution, settles the matter: Raleigh, N. C., October 7. —Editor Constitution: I see that my friend Gov ernor Gordon is still quoting a remark made by him in a speech in Mississippi in regard to the sub-treasury bill,in support of his position on that measure. 1 did say that “the sub-treasury bill sleeps the sleep that knows no waking,” because “it is in the hands of a congress that is absolutely dominated by Wall street and the corporate power of the country.” 1 am more than willing that every word 1 have uttered in regard to that just measure should be quoted by all its op ponents, but simple justice demands that I should not be so quoted as to misrep resent my position. I hope Goveror Gor den will do me the justice to quote the above in full as ah expression which I h tve used on many occasions, and which 1 believe to be the truth. lam far, very far, from believing that people will per mit it to sleep. It is and will be the livest issue in American polities—for it pre sents the question to the American people, whether unjust and discriminating laws, which rob honest labor of its products, shall be longer tolerated. Yours truly, L. L. Polk. Money which will be advanced to the people through the sub-treasuries, will do much to reduce the price of money and the rate of interest. At a meeting of the board of directors, held 23d day ot September, we again decided to urge you to hold your eottoh for better prices. When you are owing local merchants let them hold your cotton for you, subject to your orders. We have marie the following arrangements at different points for yon to store and hold vour cotton until you get ready to sell, they advanc ing you, say three-quarters of the market value on arrival: Phinizy & Co., Augusta, commis sions, storage and handling, same as to mer chants. Interest on advances at 6 per cent per annum. Alliance Warehouse at Macon, com missions, insurance and storage same as to other Allianeemen. In rarest on advances at 8 i-er cent per annum. Alliance Warehouse at Savannan, commissions, insurance and storage same as to other Alliansemen. Interest 7 per cent per annum. Messrs. Treadwell, Abbott & Co., Atlanta, commissions 30 cents per bale; in surance 10 cents per month: storage 15cents; drayaee both ways 10 cents; interest 8 per cent per annum. Resouices at Augusta and Savannah are un limited. We expect to be able to get rates at other points. Wn. LPns, Pres’t F- A. Ex. of >Ja. TO THE SUBORDINATE AND COUNTY ALLIANCES OF GEORGIA. At the last session of the State Alli ance the foliowing preamble and resolu tions were adopted unanimously: Whereas, There is a determined effort being made to divide our people, and thereby defeat the objects aud good re sults to-fljw from the Alliance organiza tion ; and Whereas, Alliance eyes and hearts, from every direction of this great coun try, are turned on Georgia, and the hopes of our brotherhood from every quarter are largely based on the union, determination, wisdom, and aggressive ness of the Georgia Alliance; Therefore, be it Resolved, That this, the Georgia State Alliance now assembled, do reaffirm our allegieuce to our National Alliance plat form, and do most earnestly and unqual ifiedly demand that all members of our order who may become members of the Georgia legislature do not vote for any man as United States senator unless he or they subscribe to the Georgia State Alliance platform, to wit: “4. To a reduction of state and nation al taxes. Asserting that only should taxes be levid for revenue, and that to aa economical and judicious administra tion. “5. That in the revision of the protec tive tariff the burdens now resting on the agricultural and laboring classes shall be lessened to the greatest possible extent. ‘O. That our representatives in the national legislature shall advocate the passage of such laws as will prevent speculation and combines, that seek to interfere with prices of prime necessities and productions. "7. To an ablition of the national banking system, and the substitution of legal treasury notes in lieu of the nation al bank notes, and in sufficient volume, in conjunction with gold and silver, to do the business of the country on a cash basis. “That the sub-treasury bill of the National Alliance now pending in con gress, or some better bystem for the relief of the struggling, masses be parsed.” We have received a number of county resolutions which come too late lor pub lication, and we cannot use them in full, but will give a synopsis and publish in full next week. Echols County Alliance passed resolu tions intstructing their representatives against Governor Gordon |for the senate. Jackson county passed strong resolu tions also instructing their representa tives to vote againt Governor Gordon for the senate. Monroe County Alliance passed very strong resolutions condemning Governor Gordon, and calling a massmeeting of the county to instruct representatives to vote against him. NOTICE. To the Alliancemen of Georgia: It was decided in lhe meeting of the Board of Directors of the State Exchange on September 23, 1890, that it would be advisable for each County or Sub-Alli ance to'elect from their ranks the best business man to act as trade agent in making their purchases from the State Exchange, especially fertilizers, and that, the Exchange would pay such agents 25 cents per ton on each sale of fertilizers, this being one-half the commission allowed by lhe companies for such sales, to be paid when fertilizers are settled for. Os course the goods are to be sold at manufacturer’s prices. The County or Sab-Alliance is at liberty to pay such agent watever additional amount it may think his services are worth. Such agent would be expected to be Held responsible for the proper execution of all contracts and business papers, as well as collections of notes and tnonej due the Exchange, or mercantile compa nies. Each agent would be required to make a bond to the Exchange for the proper discharge of his duties, which amount would be determined by the Exchange. It is advisable for such agents to be elected as soon as practicable, and when at all convenient for such agents to come to Atlanta and familiarize themselves with their duties, as well as to get fully posted with the workings of the Ex change. Arrangements cannot be made too early in the matter of fertilizers for the coming season if we would avoid the immense trouble experienced this year. It should make no difference to consumers about getting fertilers early, even before Janu ary, '9l, as they are mostly sold on a credit, and the interest is no more be cause of getting them thus early, and it is a matter of utter impossibility to de liver them as rapidly as wanted if buyers wait until time to use them. Further more they are sold on a guaranteed price. If they decline you get the the. benefit of it, and if they advance you pay no more. We want, by this arrangement, to sell the larger portion of fertilzers sold in this state, and we think that if all will do their duty our efforts will meet with smfeeks. We mail one of these circulars to each Alliance in the state of Georgia, and think that since the trustee stockholders in convention unanimously agreed to per mit Alliances to take stock in the Ex change upon the liberal. plan of their paying one-quarter cash October Ist, and balance in annual quarterly installments, that every Alliance in the state should avail themselves of the offer and join those already holding stock in further developing our mutual interest. Remem ber in unity there is strength, and we all need the hfilp of each other. Wm. L. Peek, Pres’t F. A. Ex. of Ga.
