THE BiDDEFORD STRIKE.
The Demand. Of the strikers Refuse

BIppEroRp, June IA. This forenoon, the
strikers at the Pepperill & Laconia Mills met
and choose a committee of five to wait upon
the Agent of the companies, present their case
and demand an increase of 10 per cent. in
their wages. The committee on visiting
the agent were received very courteously,
and were informed that their demands would
not be acceeded to, but the companies would
paw as much as was being paid in other
places. Parties were here yesterday from
Fall River for the purpose of organizing a
Spnners and Viewers Union, and were
expected back again tonight, for the organi-
zation of the strikers.

! The chief reason why the land
owner IS land-poor is because the
South is, cotton=poor. Not that
the South raises too much cotton,
but because it does not raise enough
of other things. It should raise as
much cotton as it does, but it
should raise proportionate amount
of stock, provisions, cereals and
grasses. It does not do this be-
cause its labor and tillage are de-
fective. 1t raises what it does by
reason of its very productive soil,
and in spite Of the defects of labor
and tillage. To improve the labor
1T. must be under good control, and
to do that it must be we'll and
promptly paid, and that requires
the best instead of the worst tilIage
of the SOIL If only half the acreage
now planted in cotton was made to
produce double the amount to the
acre that is produced, there would
be just as much cotton produced.
In addition to this, it would be
much more easily gathered, for all
planters know that cotton can be !
gathered a third faster on fine thick |
cotton than on short crop cotton. |
Half the acreage is just twice as cas-
lily gathered and cultivated and that
would allow plenty of time for the
raising of cereals, grasses, hesses, !
mules, hogs, and so forth. The
for labor would be lessened
and that would enable the farmer
to get the best and enforce con-
tracts. The problem is simply to
thoroughly cultivate less land in
cotton instead of attempting to
scratch as much as is now done.
Take any land that lies we'll and
ill it as it would be titled in the
North or Europe, and the land
yvner will soon be rich and indie
