An ntorostiug Letter Which piaved in tho Soutthorn. Aiauco arme+r --IIving IsNuos 1N e (e. Editor own, of the Southern Al ' " lianco Fi'a.:kr, recently wrote to (Gv ei'nOr G'ord on, asking his Views upon the matters in which the Alliance fs interostod, an(1 also asking his "a'i proval and endorsemont" of the or dor. Governor Gordoii replied as follows: ATLANTA, Ga., May, 33, 1890.--Ir. H U. Brown, Editor of the Southerin A.llianco Farmer-My Dear Sir: Rep resenting as you do, so large and -honorable a body of our best citiz;"ns your right cannot be (tuestiolCd, to my opinion of the great mlovenIIWI. to which you refor.in your letter 01 y'terday, My answer will be given with, en tire frankness, although the exacting nature of my duties absolutely for" bids any elaborato dicussiont. I appreciate m11ost seiisibly your kind allusions to myself "as a friend of the toiling millions who are 1but socking justice." This testi1ionied from one in yuur position will justify the statemuent, 1 trust, that as a life member of the State Agriculturtl Society fromt early mantho :loid and iden tified in cvry posSible w..y with the farming imterests of the ('olliltry, may highest concern in public and privae life hau natturally been to protect 01(1 prollote the gre:u gri(uultural industry of our country; nIot only a(s the leading. primalanld priucipal call ing of (lir p):?ople; 1)ut the on1e 1 lost cssential to Southller1 and nationtl ir)iOSperity and yet lealst fLvor(ld by t le OVel'mlue11ut 01 pr'otecte(1 by its O\wn1 - votaries. iHeice for fif'teen ye is or mllore, I. i:tvC laborid in coielntions, on the pblic rostrtiln and in' private station to induco the farmtler; of the country to organiZe. For liftetit y.cars or r01e I laVe urged. I close, ( compact 111in--afn atll-emu1blacinlg ag ricultural l)rotllerlhood, (leflsive in its character ntd only aggressive in protecting that industry from un friendly legistation, inijlst exacti ois and hurtful (liscrliilmations. In view of thcso efforts to- seciure organization during so many years of my past life, it is searctly neeCs sary for me to say that I -hailed t),o adveit of the Farmers' Allirulo its the possible, filial realiziiou of a long cherished hope, nor n8. it ntecs sary with Ply past recordLobforo you to my4hat I endorso witl.ut, reserve and withl unaba)ted emrphasis theo policy of the Allinco. foriln inorom o of the circulating .medli of t he country. As to the best. mldiumnli of obtaining that inrcrase, I. frankly ad mit, I ami not fully prepari'Z to ad vise; but I repeat what I said -in ln - othor place, more than twelv.. ycais ago, that I do not believo a more dlis mal chapter, nor one more inonisist ent with real statomanship, nor more incompatible with the true interest s of its citizens, hIts over been written in any country whore the balloL was freo than that which records the mu tion of this government in the foiced and rapid contraction of the cu rc ie cy. In the teeth of overwhelhimig evi donco of tile countr'y's- growthI and pr'ospo.rity and oni the grou ii dless as sortibn and bald assumuptioni that all the boundless prlospority ini the coun1i try at the time was the morest sham, Congress proceeded to rush thriough one mieasiuro of contraction after ani other untiliit had checked enterprise, qjuadr'upled the difficulty of paying - debts, blasted the hiopes anid par'alyz/ ed the industr'ies of the peopile anud r'educed all these inispirinig pro spets and productive energies to on1e vast uncr'al p)ile. UInsatisfied with these dismial r'e suits, the conltractioni eormior'ants gave tile scroew another' turn'i in thu d (emonitizationl of silver' and cr'amiped and cr'ushed the toilers of the soil h'and toilers for' bread1 until the black ruins fr'om thieir' mad policy wer'e 5sen on every hiand ini shaitter'ed for'tunies, , opular d isn.iay and( deadly uiniverisal liIight. ~' I regret that I cannot ill thisi l(t ter discuss8 the reaisonis, or' 'at.lher ex ~: cuse, offered for this needCllss and( cruel policy. What ought to be s'aid of the folly and madness thaut would pq..jforco in this !ounJtiir -policy' which e vbrywhero, in all counitries and1( (con ditions, is rooekig with the indiscri inate murider' of every interest that makos a country rich and great.
