To Our Fanner Friends and Mr.
Shnler.
My farmer friends, I do not claim j
to be a prophet neither the son of a
phophet, but I do claim to be one of
the true men that do unto others as I
would have. others do unto me, and one
that asks God to bless our farmers
every day of my life and give me
wisdom to speak the truth to them.
The truth is we are all one. The
small merchant buys the farmers produce
and the honest farmer will buy
what he needs from the small merchant
that bought from him. The
farmer is the body of the world, but
if we were all body the world would
be no good, as a body with hands,
arms, and legs cut off is no good; so
is a farm no good when its market is
gone. Do you know every man you
drive in the cotton natch means so
_ 4
much less for cotton. If I could
make a cotton picker I would never
do it f or it would ruin the poor farmer.
I believe you have the power to
drive the people from the cities, but
what will be the result? Cotton will
be 4 or 5 cents per pound; taxes will
be higher, and you will have to pay
them. Now one acre of land in the
cities is worth $1,000, so you see one
acre of land in the city pays as much
taxes as 500 acres in the country.
Bring city property down equal
with country property and where
i will your taxes come from? The
I cities pay over half the taxes to day
in this States. Where will you raise
the money from when one acre of
land in the city is worth no more
than one in the country. If you put
it on phosphate rock the farmer pays
it direct himself, leaving every other
class of the world out of it. I don t
believe in paying a royalty on phosphate
rock, for no one but the farmers
pay it.
Now, Mr. Shuler, I have been a
farmer. I ploughed an ox for two
f/s f?Vo nf mv dear old
jr^cw.^ w w v- j -
mother (just after the war), but I
came to town about eight years ago
and I had money when I came. I
live in a house with four bay windows,
but who built the house? I
hired a poor cripple Confederate soldier
who could not plough for a living,
so he built me a good house and
I gave hira what money I could
spare. Now. Mr. Shuler, every
house that is built makes our State
worth so much more and some poor
carpenter has been blessed.
jgj&jm You will learn after awhile that the
retail merchant is the farmers best
friend and the farmer should be his
W best friend. Those men who claim
^ to be your best friends are putting
jgr up things on you every day. The
ft Ift, biggest Alliance stores areallinpartcership
with every trust in the
j
United States. They receive telegrams
almost every day to put up j
corn, bacon, flour, oats and everything
your poor farmers are com
pelled to have. If we small iner- )
chants were doing a good business !
and had plenty corn in stock that j
only cost us GO cent per bushel, oats,
that cost us 35 cents and flour that
cost us per barrel, these large
merchaats could never run things up
on von. Almost day every tliey are J
receiving telegrams to put prices up i
on you, and I say in all kindness to
you farmers, keep your small merchants
up, if you don't the Alliance
stores and big merchants will make
slaves of you to make a living for
your family and pay your tax.
What means that host coming yon- ;
derf A good old sensible farmer
says that it is the small merchants
who the Alliance broke up by center:
ing their tra.de. "Won't that bring
cotton and everything ye raise down?
They will become producer* and not
"cbirdufliefs. But some big Ike who
has five dollars in some Alliance
store and who, the Alliance says by
its own aotion, that he has not sense I
enough to buy for his own family, j
for they have given him a ticket to j
huv with, iumps up and says we '
have got them now. But yonder
comes another host, says the good
old fanner, what doe3 that mean?
That is the carpenters and bricklayers
who can't get work in the city
and they have come to the fields.
Well, says the good old sensible
farmer, "won't that ruin us?" But
up jumps big Ike, who has not got
sense enough to buy his own goods
without a ticket or pass in his pocket, j
and say9: "We are getting them I
now." W^.11, says the good old sen- |
sible farmer, -yonder pomes another
host (it is not so large) who lock like \
they will turn the. earth upside down, j
who are theyT They are the editors, j
printers and composers. What broke
them up? Well, the farmers would not
take their papers unless they would
put it down to one dollar per yerr
and there was no *d.'ert:sing ftr
them to do, so they just had to give
up the business and come to the
fields. But up jumps big Ike, who
has not yet sence enough to buy
goods for his family, and says: "We
| have got them now. "What means j
I that large host that looks like a Diack
cloud, says the good old sensible
farmer, That is the colored people
who have gone to town to make a
living but there is nothing there for
them to do and they have come to
the fields to bring cotton do*n to 5
or 6 cents per pound. We know that
gone to the cities and we small far- !
mers got something fpr our cotton
and everything we had to sell, we j
and our children are getting along j
better than our fathers did before i
the war; but, up jumps big IkCj the
man that has not got sense enough
to buy his goods without a pass
or ticket in his pocket, and says,
we g,ot them now. Now I don't like
that word pass or ticket. That is
what the bosses gave the negroes
before the war, but I am glad to
know that hundreds and thousands
of Alliance men don't carry them
around in their pockets to buy goods
with. I thank God for such men
who have sense enough to belong to
the Alliance and buy their goods

need a pass or ticket to buy with. A
discount means put on and take off, to
| catch suckers, and it catches them,
too. Your friend,
P. J. Rucker.

The Missouri ^Legislature is in the j

After you have read everything
in the Dispatch?including Talmage's i
sermons and the advertisements? !
[ then please read the Alli^ce Depart-1
I ment. Don't read it first.
\ dishonest dollar often burns a
whole in the ppcj?et and the most
burning part of that burn |s, that it j
j will let out all the honest dollars 1
Even a dishonest dollar in prospect
has brought swift retribution before
it was obtained. j
j
Alliance men and all other work- j
ing men, do you know that the in-1
crease of the circulationg medium j
and government control of railroads
are our life and death issues?
The late lamented Josh Billings
once said that there is something
about a hen that looks like wisdom.
"She never cackles much until after
she has laid/' The great trouble
with many people is that even after
they have done a large ^inpunt of
hard cackling they are to^r^^^
template-taking a trip to New York
after "green goods," "medicines,"
etc., don't do it. Its been tried and
won't work. If you go to New York
on such busines&^tjw^ay walk back
minus the money you camfc?^^d have
the burning experience that "the way :
of the transgressor is hard."
The "Sub" is the true "unit" of
our system, and right here it must
have its foundation laid. County,
State and National organizations follow
quite as a matter of course. By
this plan the fittest; njen for leadership
are naturally evolved?then we
can keep them obedient, well in hand,
and they cannot well sell us out.
(b.)
Alliance men, one thing at a time;
with all our best forces concentrated
on it, and all our minds as a unit?
determined, will win the victory. As
a general rule it is well to "go slow"
and not undertake too much at a
time. A little work well done is
worth a great deal of work poorly
| done. The city of "Rome was not
built in a day," and if we would succeed
we must take it gradually, as a
tradition informs us the cow did
when she eat the grindstone.
j
a voice from kansa8.
The following is a part of a private
letter received by one of the editors
of this department, and contains
some interesting facts (or truths),
i and shows that the bloodv shirt is
i buried. The writer considers this
j sufficient apology for the liberty he
takes in publishing it. (r.)
Dear Sir: * * * I have always
had a romantic idea concerning
South Carolina. I am a Vermonter
myself, and as a boy read the history
of the Revolutionary war; was always
very much interested in the part
played by South Carolina. Have
read several romances, too, in which
the people of South Carolina were
supposed to have played a part.
Since then our two sections have
been engaged in fracticjdal strife,
which has been kept up for twenty!
five years after the struggle by such
! men as Ingalls and Hampton, whom
j Kansas and South Carolina have now
| laid on the shelf politically, I trust,
j The country is a union and wo will
i make it so in fact as well as in theory,
i We in the North are getting tired of
i ficrV)tino- nvptr the war. The old sol
! diera of the North, with the excep
| tion of the pap sucking, office hold;
ing class amongst them and those
! who are still able to dupe, are heartt
ilv tired of sectional strife. A mai
J
i jority of our present Alliance LegisI
iature in Kansas are old soldiers, and
| are opposed to fighting the war over
! again: are opposed to the Force bill,
yet they elected for United States
Senator a man wlio had the courage ;
to look yon Rebels in the face when i
it was a dangerous thing to do and
retired to private life a man who
never had any personal trouble with
the Southerners until after the danger
was past. We of Kansas extend
the hand of fraternal greeting to
o o
South Carolina and look forward to
that near future time when there will
be a union of hearts as well as of
States. M. AV. Wilkins.
Winfield, Kansas, Feb. 23d, 1891.
Another Reply to P. J. Backer.
Mr. Editor: I would not attempt
to reply to Rev. Rucker had not you
and the Columbia Register commented
so favorably thereon.
Now, Mr. Rucker, you advise the
farmers to buy their goods from ike
i small retail merchants. To carry
^"4- ITTa TT'/Milrl I.Q nnf tAnAiiei/lnr.
tills UUL' VT V 1TUU4U W j>v*v VV VUUH4UV*
able trouble and inconvenience. Go
on what street you will, you will find
little "shops'* with flaming notices
over their doors of what they have
for saje. ^luet we hupt thpin up and
trade there?
Now, Mr. Rucker, we have thirtyeight
sub Alliances in this county.
Suppose No. 1 would come to you
and tell you that they desired to t^ade
wjth you. what would you sa\?
Then No. 2, and so on until the whole
thirty-eight put in applications for
a *f ah ct ri fmt? /-,f
uaur} Y)uuit^ juu scliu <*11 j ui uirju
to trade with some other merchant?
Honor brigh^ shame the devil and
tell the truth.
"You have got the wrong idea in
your head." Oh, is that it? Just aa
soon as we commenced to think'for
ourselves then the howl goes up. oh,
you unchristian devils stop and think.
Come here and let me reason with
you. "Why it is better that you should
give me more for my goods than you
can buy them for elsewhere before it
is financially too late with me. "We
f-aint" going tq do it, Reverend,
you may just as well stop fretting
and take things easy, trade or no
trade, money or no money, for that
is what you are after, Reverened. It
is not our sins that has got you "off
?he track," but the interest thaUyou
feel in our pocket books. That's it.
Why was you such a strong Alliance
ijaan two ye&rs ago, writing in
behalf of th6 Alliance, talking* in
beka'f of the Ailance and then urging
them in ever}' way possible i o
stick together and act as a jinit?
Did you not expect to get "the i Alliance
trade by such a course"? Fail
ing in your scheme, now you (Jome
that yoh would not handle his gPods
unless he would sell the privilege of
the State to you? How does
look from your own standpoint? PDid
you not say that you made $2,orfOthe
first year from Dr. Kit's "trick//'
-pricks" they were or southing
worao, and you knew it.
us to get down on our kneijdBd ask
the Almighty to fie^J iJBRirude
with Peter Pucker (for tSiM| what
it means,) when we can do bener at
many other places. Shame, Reverend,
shame. When you bu^ your
goods do you go around buy a little
here and a little there, or do you say
to your merchant, *4I want -a good j
lot, come to the bottom at once?"
Why not distribute your trade among
the wholesale merchants so as to
keep them all moving lively? When
a farmer comes along and asks more
for his produce than you can buy it
for, will you buy? No Neither will
we, though it sends Mr. Ruekerback
where he came from, stepping over
clods for he won't have to hop.
He that provideth not for his own
is worse than an infidel, so savs Holv
Writ.
You, I believe, expounded the gospel
from the pulpit, now do you
mean to say Cain killed Abel because
he raised sheep? if so, allow me to
say you are mistaken. He killed him
bccanse he was iealous of him, the
same you are trying to do with the
merchants that the Alliance sees fit to
trade. Did you not say that the
whole Alliance fraternity> was a set
of fools? I say you did. He who
says "*hou fool, is in danger of hell
fire." Drop op your knees, Reverend.
Now Reverend, I leave you to your
own guilty conscience, if you have
any. Rest as;-u:ed that the Alliance
has come to stay, and stay it will irrespective
of your bitter hatred.
You know, I know and everybody
knows you expected to get the Alliance
trade from this county when you
were advising them to hold fast, failing
in this you became a bitter euemy.
