The cew school building which
jtfr W. E. Glenn started about three
weeks ago is going up very rapidly,
lie having pushed the work '-for all
it W3 s worth.'' The sills of the
iirst fioor have already been laid
aod he says ths.t by ihe 1st of Jan.
he will have it ready to occupy.
This is an age of big fairs. The
city of Augusta, Ga., is to have
-one some time this fall. It won't
be n$ar as big a thing as the
World's fair at Chicago, but then
it wont take near as much to go
down and tee Jt, and you know
money U quite an Item these times.
If people would spend their cash
where they get their credit, they
woulj be more just and thereby
show an appreciated favor that has
l>een accorded them when they
^rere in a tight place. Tnis fact is
?worth remembering and practicing,
though it is not always done.
We call fpe^ial attention to our
slabbing arrangement with the
great souther i weekly, The At
lanta Constitution, which enables
?s to offer both papers for ttie re
markably ]low sum of $1.75 a year.
The first duty of every good citizen
is to patronize his home paper.
He wishes to become thoroughly
.conversant wi;h his county matters
and only through his home paper
cao he expect to be. supplied wiUi
the currant county news, which is
of the closest interest to him.
After he has provided himself with
his home paper, the next consider
ation of those who are not within
*asy reach of first-class daily
?ewspaper should be to select a
first-claw weekly newspaper sup
_^>Hing ail cf the general news of
ihe world, and paying special at
tention to features which are of
paj-ticular interest to the hous< -
|??ld and the farm. We are ena
bled to. elfer both papers at practic
ally the price of one, a id we will
take gra^t pleasure in forwarding
to The Constitution any names

[ - THE ALufANCS A25BSSS
The following is the address de
livered by Pres. Magill before t'ae
quarterly meeting of thtf County
Alliance on Wednesday:
Dear Brethren*: ? Five ??ars
ago this. countjrjAUiance was orgar
ized by-Bro G. W. Baker, of Ches
terfield. All these years^ it has la
bored "through evil as well as
through good report'' for the edu
cation of tlie farmers in the scieuce
of economical government in a non
partisan spirit, aad to develop a
better state mentally, morally, so
cially and financially. By persist
ent study of this science, stimulat
ed by op^ession and propelled b?
poverty, we have made some pro
gress. With our limited opportun
ities^ of acquiring knowledge of
economic questions^ we have dis
coveVed that we are a I the mercy of
National banks that monopolize the
issote and control ihe circulation of
the currency of the country. It is
evident that thoy can create a mon
ey panic when they please to do so.
Forecasting the danger to the in
dustrial classes from the exercise
of this power by th? banks, we for
mulated a demand, "Triat the gov
ernment establish sub-Treasuries
in the several States which shall
issue money direet to t,he people at
a hw rate of tax, not to exceed 2
per cent, per annum, on.non-pe;
ishable larin products, and a"?90 on
real estate with proper limitations
upon the quantity o? Jand and
amount jf money," If tliis demand
had been enacted into law the pre
sent crisis wouid have been averted
or, at least, would not have depre
ciated the price of cotton, i The
Memphis-Cotton Exchange in a cir
cular dat*d August 23, 1893, says:
"The ipinneis are practically bare
of cotton. The supply in the hands
of factories is 1,000,000, bales less
than last year and 400,000 bales
less in the hands of dealers. Trade
in Europe is good, and the supply
of goods much less than last year.
The margin of profit is greater and
crop prospects worse than a year
ago."
Everything favois high priccs
bat the supply of nnnfry. Hut we
are told that a waut '^confidence
produced a bisisr that u ade money
scarce. Was it not a want of gov
ernment bonds by tire national
banks that produced t lie crisis and
scarcity of money? The banks de
manded of President* Harrison a
sale of b< nds which was refused.
They demanded the same of Cleve
land and were again refused. Then
followed the panic and money fam
ine; not fron*- scarcity of mon*y ?
the banks held *1,800,000,000 of
deposits, besides their own money,
l'he Secretary of the Treasury juud,
there was more money in I he Coun
try by several millions whey the
crisis began than wag a year pre
vious. R. G. Dun <fc Co. tell us
that last year was the most pros
perous ever known in business.
But "he banks wanted more bonds
to replace those that would soon
be paid and retired] They also
wanted silver demonetized to neces
sitate the continuance of bonds as
a banking basis as well as to con
tract the currency and make monev
more easily cornered. They sowed
the wind and will reap the whiil
wind by ^bankrupting their .own
customers.^ -They could not control
the panic|&ind_ adopted our sub
Treasury p&n, after so abusing it.
They deposited one dollar and fifty
cents in good securities and issued
against it one dollar of currency,
fte proposed to deposit one dollar's
worth of non-perishable farm pro
ducts and issue eighty cents of cur
rency that would pay debts. Wliilgj
their issue depended on confidence
in the bankers for us circulation,
? *
ours was a legai tender in payment
of all debts. Now is the time to
press our demands. The National
banks have proved, a failure and
have caused a mo;iej famine in the
midst of prosperity and plenty.
We should , press our demand for
the abolition of National banks be
fo:e silver is denied coinage and
finally demonetized. Stiver i? one
of the monev metals of final le
dempi.ion. We can?ot redeem all
our paper currency in gold",4here
f*ny*t+*er is essential as a basis
for the issu?__.of paper money as
well <is for U3e as cihange in daily
transactions. Tue National bank
capital is about ?200,000.000.
Their deposits were about ten
times the amount ot their coital
when the panic f occurred. The
bankers are only liable for double
the^ amount of t/iair stock. Is it
surprising that depositors Inst con
fidence when their only security
was the assets that might resell the
hands of a receiver, and a claim
against stockholders for double the
amount of their stocks? We wili
next consider the subject of debt.
National, state, county, corpora
ilion, municipal and private debts ;
they are consuming the profits of
labor, and reducing laborers to the
: condition of serfs.
Ail wealth is produced by labor.}
Therefore, labor is burdened with I
the payment of these debts. Jni
1SS0 the private indebtedness of !
the people wns estimated at ?6,700-1
000,000. In 1S90 st *19,700,000,
000, nearly trebled in 10 years. Inj
1S80 the funded railroad debt was j
*2,392,000,000. In 18S0 it wasi
*5,463.000,000, doubled in 10 years.
Debts of States and municipalities j
amount to $1,135,210,000. The I
revenue of the United States io 1891 1
was ?765,S21,305* State revenues,
including local and county taxes,
*655,049.604, making a t?>ta! public!
revenue of ? 1,405, 04D, 604, or a sum!
nearly equal to a;l the gold, silver!
and paper money in tiie United
States. Vet with all these debts
and taxes to be paid by the sale of
labor products, we are ask? d to stop
the coinage of silver by repealing
Uie Sherman act and reduce the
price of ihe*e products by making
money scarce and high priced. We
should increase our currency U>
double its present volume, and is
sue a sctficiency ojf it direct to'the
jjeopie to more their crops iMien
&? V ji" "
harvested.. This increase of iponey
would advance prices and enable
them to pay these debts and taxes.
These debts cannot be paid with b
contracied currency, and f-lling
prices of labor products. And no
til these debts are paid and tariff
taxes are id part substituted by a
tax on incomes of niillion ares, farm
ers will remain hewers oi wood and
drawers of water for the money
chnngers. The credit system is
ruinous to farmers. We cannot
make money on the farm and pay
credit prices for supplies. An in
crease of money and a more equit
able distribution of it among the
several States, would place money
within the ifarraers reach aud en
able them to obtain it on the liens
aud mortgages that they now give
merchants fwr store credits.
With the cash they could buy
much cheaper from home mer
chants, and consolidating orders
for guano and heavy groceries tlj?y
might save enough in a ?ew year*
to buy with cash of their own, and
no longer be forced to sell
at low prices to pay liens and mort
gages given f??r supplies. Utufcr
this system grain and provision
i rops might. he increased annually
until cotton would be our stupes,
and our dependence for credit on
supply merchants would ceas*.;
When we raise our own supplies
aDd "pay as we go" jfb? suCU i*bj
cannot be produced on the furtD,
then we can Test under, our ojfrrij
vine and fig tree with none to mo
lest oi make us afraid. No more
otlieial visits from constables or
sheriff*, no more hungry wolves at
the door, /vhile our children suffer
for food and cloUilng. ? Public
schools would no longer he closed
because the farmers children are
forced lo the field to make cotton
to pay lien prices for scanty sup.
plies to keep body and soul togeth
er until crops are made.
A reduction of tariff taxes on
necessaries of life and a graduated
income tax is demanded by our
order. The tariff should be levied
?n luxuries -and should be buj
plemented by a tax on all in
comes over $5000. This ..wjjuid
piace a part of the burden -of Na
tional taxes on .property \ here, it
rightly belongs. Our equiLics are
destroyed and our libeities jeo
perdized by the greed of aggregated
wealth, Pla forms of political
parties are ignored wneu they con
ticL with the interests of those
wealth accumlators. Tariff taxes
are levid on. lie necessities of the
poor, to increase tne incomes o 1
ll.e rich. Expenditures of gov
ernment afe increased to create
the necisily for high' tariffs which
are levied for revenue to protectee,
.manufactures rather than govern 1
rnent revenue. Levy a graduated
tax an incomes au<i thote money
changers yill n<? lunger t)e interest
ed in increasing go\ernmeut ex
penditures and thereby a great
burden w II be takeiy off tie pro
ducing classes. , j
FALLING PRICES.
One of the causes of the money crisis
is falling prices of farm products. The
average per acre ot corn, -wheat, oais,
hay and cotton, in five >ear averages?
from* 167 1 to 1893? was as. follows;
From h"l>io f875, Si5. 19 per acre; from
187U to 1880, 811.88 per acre; from 188i
to 1885, 811.28 per acre; from 1*86 to
189- I, ?'J 8y per acre; 1893 88 15 per acre.
Tiie.se average prices of staple products
show that values of farm products
have been decreasing ever since thede
mjuetizatinn of silver in 1ST3. The
decrease from 1871 to 1893 is 80 per
cent, on an average of the 5 products
named.
A bout 200,000,000 acres are used in
producing these crops, henc:i the de
crease in the value of these wops since
1871 to 1873? to the present is $7.00 per
acre, or $1,442,000,000 annually, conse
quently farmere have thatimucb less
money to spend f >r goods than they
would have had if prices had no: fallen.
Mills are idle and furnaces 'cIosk! be
cause 30,000,000 farmers (including
their families) are net able to buy. their
products. Restore former prices of
farm products, and these farmers and
their families will consume all the sur
plus products of the factories, which
will in turn enable the factories to give
constant erl&loymeut to Y>perat;ives at
remunerative wages. Business will
never prosper with falling prices; con
fidence Will, never be restored while
values are shrinking and labor uiiem-j
ployed. A failing market is dangerous
for investors. Merchants buy sparingj
ly on a fal.en market, falling prices de
stroy their profit?, securities depreciate
when money is scarce. The contrac
tion of the currency has increased its
purchasing power, but it has decreased
the purchasing power of the farmer.
Instead of increasing the pun-hading
power of the dollar we should try to
increase lh-3 purchasing power of the
man? the laborer "that produces the
commodities that necessitates the use
of the dollar. The loss to cotton pro-'
ducers from decline in price since silver
was demonetized in 1873, is estimated
at 85.370,000,010
The value of an acre's prcdnct of
cotton in 1873 w?s ?28.55; in 1893 its
value per acre is 810.65, a loss by fall
ing prices of $17.90 per acre.r^Vhilethe_
cost of production has not. been mate-'
rialiy lessened prices of cotton are les^1
than half what they were 2D years a^o.
T^e cost of supplies is less, but the in
crt-ase i use of fertilizers will make up
the difference. The cost of farm labor
is about the same. Taxts, doctor's
bills, lawyer's fee*, tuition, interest on:
old debts have not been reduced. Cot
ton acreage and production have both
doubled in 20 years, but the money
paid the producer is no more than he
received for cultivating half the num
ber of acres, and gathering half the
number of bales in 1873.
IN CONCLUSION
I admonish you not to forget that plu
tocracy has declared open war agamst,
the Farmers Alliance. In our own
state the toois of effete aristocracy and
the time servers of aggregated wealth
would debar us of membership in the
the Democratic party if their powtr
was equal to their mendacity. They
attempt to stigmatize us by calling us
"Ocalaites" and evwj charge ua with
being Che cause of th*> financial crisis
and the low prices of cotton caused
thereby. They claim that our demand
for the at olition of national banks atwj
the free coinage of silver offemled the*
bo* d holders. money chargers and go'd
bugs, and that they created a money
famine to bring ub to our senses. 1X>
they thmk we are slaves and that we
dare not ojfend them? our masters? I>o
the/ atlmit that they have tl-e p?wer u?
coutrofl the money of the country and
destroy its legitimate industries by fix
ing prices below cost of production?
| Theu it is nigh time they were dt
