Demands of tbe Alliance.
The following is the annual ad
dress before the National Farmer*'
Alliance at its recent meeting in
Washington by tbe president.
Hon. J. 0. Wilborn, of South
Carolina, who has been re elected
as the head of the organization in
the United States :
Brethren : We are assembled
in the supreme council of the Farmers'
Alliance and Industrial
Union. The Alliance is now undergoing
the great test for its
national existence. It has been
assailed by enemies from within
and without. The enemies
without have been shooting
constantly over our heads and
have been unable to assail us
successfully because they know
not our pure motives. The ene
mies within have planned sedirion
and dissension and have been
inclined to ride wild and danger
ous hobbyhorses.
1 am encouraged (o hope that
we have withstood our greatest
und most dangerous attack. It is
now to be determined whether we
will advance and claim our own
or whether we will remain in our
tents.
The necessity (or union has
never been so urgent as now.
The dangers of our farm homes
have never been so close to our
doors. The farm homes, true and
independent, are the counterpart
and palladium of our republic. It
is upon the farmer, taught by sur
rounding nature to love freedom,
that the perpetuity of our liberties
must depend. He it was that gave
us the foundation of democratic
liberty.
He freely spent his time,monev.
and spent his blood, that this
might be a land ot freedom and
~ happiness to all classes, and freed
the colonies from foreign rule.
Whenever the law and machin
ery ot our government are made
y and operated in his interest, con
tentnTent, happiness and security
to lite and property are guaran
r teed. When the farm home is
* prosperous all other classes are
assured of prosperity. The
n farmer feeds the world, and should
have a say about the government
that rules.
Keep the tarmers products from
is your towns and cities and they
ie will be deserted and truly their
e busy streets will be grown up in
? grass.
The great trains that are now
" so heavily loaded with our grain,
r wheat, oats, corn, apples, potatoes,
cotton and cattle, would be
n idle in their sheds it the farmer
j should cease from his toil for a
short space of twelve months.
,e War is terrible, famine is tera
rible, pestilence is terrible, but
ie the greatest blight that can befall
It this nation is the blight that must
^ tall upon our farmers if we are
not watchful.
r
When hope departs despair enters
and breeds mischief beyond
e measure. It behooves the producer
to be up and doing. It has
d not alwavs been so that the n?o
y ducer was the slave of the con
w sumer. It has not always been
that the producer was the lamb
upon whom the middlemen and
'? speculators could feed and grow
d fat.
e It haa not always been that the
e producer waa the clay on which
the money changer could shape
e and build up his great fortunes.
Hut alaa the times change, and
n we go on forever in the old beate
en paths.
? We sliould organize, we should
?. unite, we should move as a unit;
y our great guide should be equal
right to ail, special privilege* to
none. We must speak out and
'* let our xlomands be known, if,
not we "will be lett *in the great
I- march of human events. We
i, must >t be drooajh'qbither must
y we be slave masters; we mu*t

CORSETS ABE CONDEMNED.
Ylllanous Article of Dress Nays a
Woman Physician.
The corset is the enemy of our
race. The Greeks and Romans
never used it. An Athenian wo
man of the older time would look
upon a corset not only as injurious.
but as ugly. She merely used
agentle.girdle to sustain her bust,
lu the middle wges the corset appeared
in its icipient stage. For
the past hundred years we have
had it in all its abuse and abomination.
Let us first consider the
cot set from a hygienic and physiological
point of view, says Mile
Tylicka, M. D., a distinguished
woman of Paris.
^All medical authorities agree
that tLw corset is unhealthful.
rhntn vhn t ran fr /-if fhn tinniann
? ? n ? vw?w Wk VUW IIJ glUUD U*
slothes dwell strongly upon this ;
point.
Whet makes matters still worse
from.a hygenic as well as from 1
Dther aspects is that many women
put on their corsets, when
they get up in the morning and
10 not doff them until they retire> 1
for the night. And the curious
thing this abominable practice is
that women of fashion seem not
to know that the stethodesmon,
girdlet, of the anoient Greeks, is
much more beautiful and becoming.
Women's bodies are made to
look long or short by means of
the corset. And it is not merely
in appearanoe that their bodies
sre longer. The corset having
been worn for generations, the
women of corset wearing ances-' 1
tors have longer bodies than the
ladies of 100 years ago.
Heredity tells physically as
well as morally. The corset in
Iures me scomacn.
It causes wbat is called the
movable kidney, as shown in the
recent case of the noted actress,
Yvette Ouilbert.
It hurts the liver. It makes
people look bloodless. It disturbs
All the functions of the lower part
body.
The corset imprisons the
organism of the wearer in shocking
fashion. If it were imposed i
as a punishment, like the instruments
of tortue of a bygone age,
it would be classed among these
latter. The corset pats the surface
of the body in the worst possible
condition from a physiological
point of view.
The squeezed parts of the skin
have a deathly color.
The chest of a woman continues
to grow large from 16 until she is
25 years old. The corset deforms 1
the chest. . ^
The continuoas struggle be- 1
tween the natural form of the
ishest and form caused by the coriet
is most injurious. It rounds
the chest. It frequently makes 1
the transversal diameter equal to
the diameter from the front to
hack.
* Difficult, indeed, is it to find a
woman of from 25 to 30 years i
who is not more or less deformed

A il~ - -i 1
aujuu^ me puysioiog'cai troubles
caused by the corset one of ^
the most painful, though not the j]^0
gravest, is indigestion and its ac- suff
companying evils. Fiel
\^ien women begin to grow f08!

There are mAny instances of wo- t^e
men who in their opposition to the
obesity have died in the arms of a b<

The pressure of a corset upon a
growing girl's figure is iuconceiv- ^
abjy injurious. It leads to many jn_
irregularities and displacements. wjjj
Young girls become pale, blood- ?
less and sickly because of their
rail
corsets. Young and old suffer gnc
from this villanous article of
, nin
dress.
Now what do I propose as a
remedy and as a substitute?
First, the absolute rejection of .
ana
the corset for the many reasons
already mentioned
Second, its replacement by a Ul
girdle of strong cloth supporting mo1
the bust and adjusted to the size ^
of the wearer.
Third, suspenders should be ^0<
worn, particularly when a woman 'ier
is thin. V

I wish to be clearly understood has
in reference to my position as an hin
applicant for the post office i ' left
Lancaster, and, will here state, aim
that my application has been on Cm
file among the records of fourth Roi
assistant postmaster general since wai
the 1st of December last. I was (
directed to send it to ray Con- a r8
gressman, Hon. D. E. Finley, by. j0g
Senator B. R. Tillman, us being 8'oc
the proper person to present it, t>oc
both Senator Tillman, and Mr. I
*? II
Finley assured me of their co- B[ie
operation. , (4U
I sent a strong endorsement of the
my petition and mauy able letters kec
commendation as to m.v eminent in I
fitness for the position, from per- I
sons of prominence at Lancaster ??
?and if that could be the means f'J
of conferring this appointment, 1 yn
feol assured that it would fall to
me. *
# I had no wish to supplant Mr. {
J. F. Gregory, who has so wortbi- <>oi
ly served us as postmaster, but he
assured me, before t began, that infl
he did not expect to make any
application, and with the hearti- [ Rv
est good will approved of my
move to get up my petition. And tng
with a strong petition, and many 4jtj
fine letters of commendation from
a number of prominent citizens I
of Lancaster, I sent my creden- I
tislf trough Maj. Miller to Hon. p,
D. 1. Finley.
