The State Alliance, which met here this weok, was urged by interested parties the employ of rival conoerns to pass a scries of resolutions denouncing the American Book Company. The special committee on combines and trusts, to which fhe matter was referred, soon found "the nigger in the woodpile." and offered instead the following report, which was adopted unanimously by the alliance "We are unwilling, with the information we have in our possession, to discriminate in favor of or against any particular publishing company, and we therefore remand the whole subjeet to the county school boards, without recommendation." The information la possession of the committee, to which referent is made in the report, la tho following proposition of reduced prices (wholesale for retail), with guaranties of absolutely no increase In price for ten years, scoured by sufficient bond In each county aa submitted by the Ameriaan Book Company To tha Mississippi Farmers' Alliance We respectfully call your attention to the coming school book adoptions in your state, and especially to the fact that wholesale ohangea from the booKs now in use must result in heavy expense to the people. These books, many of which are published by us, are with rare exceptions standard and approved, and In satisfactory use in the schools.

Your children are supplied with them, and your money is invested in them, and unless the county committees are wise and conservative in making their adoptions, the result will be confusion in the schools and financial loss to the people. This touches directly upon the fundamental principle of your organization, namely, the greatest good to the greatest number, with a wise economy in all thlags; ana In order that you may have dennite and reliable information which will enable you to advise intelligently with your county committees, we give you below the terma, with prices and guarantees, which we will submit to the committees, and upon whloh we hope to be favored with the otncial adoption or our books now in use in the schools. Here follows a complete list of the books of this company now in use in the schools, with an offer of terms which will establish throughout the state as the retail prloe to the people that which has heretofore been tne whulesaie price. We agree to furnish these books, all or any of them, at the above prices for the term of the five years' adoption provided by law; and we agree to give the counties the privilege of renewing the contract for another five years at the same price and on the same terms. Wherever the counties desire It In order to establish uniformity, we will replace the pupils' old books, whether of our own series or the publications of any other house, on our most favorable exchange terms, which will be duly set forth In our formal proposition to the committee.

We guarantee that there shall be no increase whatever in the prioe of any of these books during the entire period of their adoption and use in the schools. We guarantee that if at any time the prices of these books as published above snail be reduced to any schools any where In the United titates, the people of Mississippi will be given the immediate beueht of such reduction. We guarantee that the present superior quality, style and workmanship of the books will bo maintained, and that they will always be kept equal in mechanical execution to aay school books published. We have authorized and instructed tho agents representing us in your state to outer into and execute a sufficient bond la each eouuty, binding us to fulfill and carry out the above agreeinenta and guarantiee. Respectfully submitted, American Book Compast.

This company asks that lta competitors, who have heretofore concealed their prioe lists and depended upon the hue and cry of Trust" to bring about changes of books In their favor, shall now produce facts and flgnres In place of malicious falsehoods; and the people of Mississippi demand that the school authorities shall settle this auea-tion en its merits and save an unneoebsary and expensive ehange ef books by the exercise of wise DCJUTION.

ARMY OF TENNESSEE. New Headboards for tho Grave of tho Louisiana Soldiers at Franklin, Tenn. The Army of Tenneyee met last night In regular monthly session, with Ylee Presi-J. D. Taylor im the chair and a large attendance.

Leaves of absence were granted to Comrades W. T. Cluverlus and J. B. Wilkinson, and an application for membership received from Joseph L.

Richard. The regular routine basinee was disposed of. and Comrade Rev. Dr. Markham stated that ho had unofficially received a circular from tha commltteo ta oharg of the MoGavock cemetery, in Frankltn.

who state that although the MoGavock family attends to the cemetery, keeping the grass cut and preserving the general order of tha place, many of the headboards are In a very bad condition. It is the wish of the confederate veterans in Franklin to replace the heat boards with marble slabs, and they ask the assistance of tba various southern states according to their pro rata of tho dead buried there. Louisiana is assessed for $55 eo. "st Although sent to him personally, Dr. Markham wished to place the circular la the hands of the association, knowing test as nianv of the members had been In tho battle of Franklin, and had aocepted the hospitality and assistance of Colonel McGavock.

the association would eheer- uliy take otncial action in tne matter.

LeMonnier's example, and Comrade A. J. Lewis made an eloquent address, urging the members to remember the devotion of their dead comrades, who had sealed their claim for remembrance with their life blood. The amount could easily bo spared, he said, and offered the motion that Secretary Cuny be authorised to correspond with tho cemetery officials and contribute the sum asked as the donation from the Army of Tennessee. On motion of Comrade Markham, the question was decided by a unanimous rising vote, whloh tha secretary waa notified to mention.

Comrade LeMonnier rose and said that hs wanted to explain that the reason of the small number of Louislanians being buried in the MoGavock cemetery was due to the fact that General Gibson's division was not brought into action until late in the engagement, and many ef the dead had been sent home after the war. He paid a glow-lug tribute to Mrs. McGavock. whose Boris In behalf of the wounded had been siwoh as "only southern women are eapable of." Comrade Markham said that before the meeting adjourned he wished to say that be spent two weeks in the MeGavock mansion after the battle, and that he had never known of mora constant and more heroic attention than Mrs. McGavock.

a native of Louisiana, and a friend staying with ber at tha time, had shown the su tiering patriots. "The house." he said, "waa turned into a hospital, and these two ladies, accustomed to wealth and ease, assisted by an old colored woman, did all the cooking and washing for the wounded men. Colonel John McGavock gare valuable land for the cemetery, and buried tho dead at his own expense." The meeting then adjourned. BADGB PRESENTATION. At a meeting of Asealon Division No.
