People's Pilot, Volume 3, Number 41, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 30 March 1894 — Alliance Notes. [ARTICLE]
Alliance Notes.
It is the duty of all Alliance members to work for peace and harmony, and to unite the laboring class on any and all measures of justice and equality, not ask for anything for which they are not willing to grant to any other class of people. While we stand united on things pertaining to the good of all of the people, we became benefactors to our fellow beings, and in reality are fulfilling the command to destroy all sectional strife and selfish ambition. The nearer the members live to the great and good principles adopted by the Alliance when it was organized, and still held and cherished by all good and true rneifibers as well as thousands that are not members. The better wo make ourselves, the greater are our opportunities to do good to ourselves, our families, our government and our God.
We have endorsed the motto, in any tiling essential, unity, and in ail things, charity. How important lo so live that we join hands in unison, raise our voices in defense of things essential to our good and the good of our fellow man. The trade system adopted by our fellow man, is either just and fair, or it is wiongand unjust. If unjust and works a] ardship on those who labor, and gives an undue advantage to those who handle the produce, ihen the system is wrong and should Vie changed so as to make it mutual, that both parties to the transaction shall have justice and fair play.
If we are properly organized, and are a unit in all things esIsential, our influence for good, and equity will be unfounded. 'We will be in a position to better our condition, yet at the same : Tune have Charity lor others. ,In oetteriug our condition if we I do so at our own expense, ■; 1 surely do no injustice to others. | The Jasper County Farmers’ Alliance will meet in Rensselaer, on Saturday, April 7, 1891. A full attendance is desired.
