It Las been more than a yo.-ir siuee
the most commanding figure, and
magnetic force in the reform move
ment was called upon by an inscrut
able providence, to lay down the
great work that lie was doing for
humanity. No man in the organiza
tion (and few in the whole country)
have had an equal place in the
hearts of the people. And while
this is his highest tribute and his
proudest monument, yet we should
give some evidence of our esteem
and admiration for him. In the past
North Carolina has not done her
duty in this respect. Let every A 1
lianeeman, and every lover of the
great principles of truth and justice
(as embodied in the demands of the
Alliance) resolve, that before anoth-
till 1 i 1 - A
er vear snail nave passeo, mai a
plain but titling and imposiug m.-ir-ble
shaft shall mark the resting
place of L. L. Polk. Let us not de
lay this matter, but begin now. At
theState Alliance just as it was a bout
to adjourn The Caucasian set the
ball in motion by taking up an im
promptu collection for that purpose,
which amounted to $35,90. The
Caucasian will receive contributions
to this fund, publish the names of
the contributors and the amount
contributed, and receipt for the same.
