Robeson County Alliance defends Robesonian policy
In a Sept 19 1891 letter C B Townsend and W H Humphrey defend Robesonian as a Democratic paper aligned with the Robeson County Farmers Alliance. They deny editorial bias and note staff and alliance officers publish official material, while attempts to drop the paper as an alliance organ were defeated. They also state the editor remains nonpartisan toward alliance demands. A closing aside notes sheep incur no debt to burial costs.
