plan of capturing and parelyziug loco

and has more prompt effect than any

Tho recent appointment OF grass COM
nissoners has had tho effect 10 2wak-
en- them anew to the gross iuequali-
ties OF the law, and caused them TO
turn loOge tho batteries Of th9ir IN
vective and ridicule upon tho land
board. The board has certain duties

advocate or champion of its individual
members, tho Mail is pleased TO bear
Testimony t5at they AIS honestly ard

THE LIBEL LAW AND LAND BOARD.
The News has been clsmoring for o
repeal OF or amendment 10 the Hh9t
| law, and it Is within tho bounds OF de-
monstraticp that thSt journal hes done
moro to prepe.uate ana strengthen the
libel law than all OF its opsa advocates,
The outrageous course OF the News as
shown above is beyond quiet tolera-
tior, and if the press of this State does
not look 10 this matter it does not de-
serve the respect ofthe people. There
is no reason, no tact, no excuse that
can justify the News course. 1t says
that the members Of the board We're
forced to go to radical paper to pub
lish their views. We do not know, but

Y THE LABoRING CLASS
4 We have an abiding faith in the up
rightness and honesty of porpose of
y
handed sons OF toll Represent mighty
4 aggregate of the innate honesty and
patriotism OF tho land. Their princi-
pies and teachings arc opposed to un-
A lawful acts, violence or despotlsm.
Yet when they deem it necessary to
assert their rights to redress their
A grievances, by GRIPPING their adverse
ries by peaceful methods; when prop
erty is respected and protected, not
destroyed; when no interference is
shown in blockading travel and the
delivery OF express packages and the
country's mails, they are eventually
co Itronted with bayonets, rifles, pis'
tolls and batteries, to compel obedi ence
to the behests of capital invested in
and represented by these corporations.
Still these laboring neu are in man
ner unprotected, unarmed, Offering
themselves, as IL worey personal lar
gets for the enginery of wax Tor tha
sake OF their rights and personal priv
leges. We submit that the fact should
be recognized and admitted that the
labor organizations of the land ara be-
coming two powerful to be overRwed
or cowed by the sight OF polished rifle
barrels and glisteniDg cannon. LII
such must be the inevitable ultima
tum to enforce obedience and compll-
snce with the bshests OF employers,
then will ensue the very consequences
10 be avoided, dreaded and depiored.--

AGRICULTURAL.
| Twelve acres of cotton is about as
much as s. good hand can care for, and
if he properly cultivates 1t, he has no
| time TO devote to fruit or stock, con-
sequently his revenue is derived from
this staple. To produce this he must
labor IL months of every year whether
it rains or shines, and especially
must he do so in the
plant and requires the most work dur
ing tn st season. This year a farmer
can reasonably expect 10 bales from his
IL acres, and be highly elated at his
supposed prosperity. His crop would
consequently sell for say $45per bale, or
$3.50 for his entire crop: AS there are
