Rev. Mr.. Eaton who used to be one of the
most Jealous advocates of fat moneyis going
topractice his theory of finance in his Sinaloa
colony. The colonists are to make all their
exchanges by means of scrip, stamped
upon which will probably be the seal of
the colony and perhaps also Mr.. Eaton's
features. The colonists have wisely decided
not to trust entirely to this scrip, and so
have concluded to establish central reser-
voir of coin for use among the outside bar
barians who may not appreciate the beauties
Of the fat theory. We suspect that it is 60
ing to be difficult to keep the colonists from
occasionally dipping into this reservoir

The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
is conspicuous example of how trades

employer and the employed. Years ago
strikes of locomotive engineers were of fire.
quent occurrence, and when this Brother
hood began to come int existence railroad
managers frowned upon it, regarding it as a
precursor of more and worse trouble be-
tween railroad companies and their en-
ployes But In spite of them the brother
hood grew and fourished, and the companies
were gradually compelled to recognize it and
its chief executive officer. BIT instead of
the evils predicted by the railroad managers
nothing but good has come of it. A strike
among locomotive engineers is now of very
rare occurrence. The effort Of the organiza-
ton has been to bring employees and employ
ers nearer together, to make them understand
each another better, with the result of
inspiring mutual confidence In each another's
good intentions. Now when the engineers
have grievance, or think they have, it is
presented to the company by Mr.. Arthur,
the authorized spokesman of the brother
hood, its merits are discussed, and with rare
exceptions satisfactory solution is discoy
cred. Undoubtedly this organization has
been the means of saving thousands and tens
of thousands of dollars to engineers that
would have been spent in strikes, and as
much more to the railroad companies, to say
nothing of the costly delays and inconven-
fences from which it has guarded the public.

NEGRO LABOR.
Springfield Union.

S. R. Deake. Knight of Labor, who has
been investigating the labor question at the
South, says that the negroes are cheated by
the store order system out of great part of
the small wages promised them. Many
workers on plantations get no wages at all
and are not even half fed and clothed. This
is not news, but it may strike the laboring
men of the North that competition with such
cheap labor as this is ruinous. Because this
miserably paid labor is not close at our doors
is no reason why the wages of Northern

THE REFORMED DEMOCRACY.

The Kentucky Democracy are having
hard time Of it this year. The bitter feeling
growing out Of the defeat of Willis for adher-

likely to lose them Congressman in
the First district, and now there is
row in the Third district which
threatens similar disaster. Hensell. the
present representative, was candidate
for denomination, but he had a rival in the

Bourbon to the Establishments of alcohol, a

Messrs. Editors Thinking you might
desire to hear from this section thought
would scribble you few lines The deep
snow has just left us. 1t was over two feet
deep on the level before il had settled any,
and Is said by the Oldest inhabitants tc have
been the deepest since '57. The blockade
was almost complete for day or two; af-
ter which and for several days sleighs were
the principal means oflocomotion, and of
these there were quite large number out,
greeting our ears with the merry Jingle ofthe
bells The inclement weather has formed
little impediment to the social enjoyments
and festivities of the season, and we have
heard of several parties and balls at which
the young folks are said to have enjoyed
themselves hugely.
Last Saturday evening there was meet
ing of the democratic club at the residence
of Mr.. VIM. H. Tippett, and considering the
inclemency of the weather, it was quite well
attended. A nice supper was served, pre-
sided over by the amiable lady Of the land
lord. After doing full justice to which, and
spending considerable time in the pleas
antries Of social intercourse, made more 80
by the relation ofseveral spicy and inter-
esting anecdotes, the meeting at about P.
M. was called to order and committee APP
pointed to take steps with view to the en-
largement and permanent organization of
the club. A resolution was passed express
sive of the sense Of the meeting upon some
political matters and principles by which
the club would be governed, but as have
not copy, I refrain from giving for fear Of
inaccuracy. The meeting adjourned about
10 o'clock, but time passing pleasantly,
many remained much later OF the hospita-
Bile mansion Of the host. Pr

Messrs. Editors The proceedings at the
State Capital have 30 far ended In disap-
pointment, especially among the tobacco
growing interest Of the county, and we have
commenced to think that warehouse aboli-
ton and free inspection furnish material
for argument only. Iconsider the present
system good one, compulsory feature ex-
cepted, and I believe this part Of 1t detri-
mental to the bone and sinew Of our land.
It does really. seem to me that legislation
upon this subject protects the buyers In
terest only, while the seller Is left to the
mercy Of the buyer, and knowing this, and
being Of g speculative class, they feed upon
the poor mans labor. But enough Of this,
and we pass to subject Of more interest
Of present, or at least one in which we are
more deeply concerned, that IL, the selec-
ton Of tobacco inspector. We are appre-
hensiye less It may prove as q case Giraffe,
20 long as the subject remains undecided;
in other words, our county holds share In
II. think, Messrs. Editors, we are Justly
deserving, and tits very probable we will
attain this end. We have q number of ap.
plicants, and ! have learned there 10 q big
fight going on In this county for the cove
ted position, and Just here, Messrs. Editors,
permit me 70 say that from general obser.
Walton the universal desire as expressed d
that Q. @. Hayden, ofths 4th district, should
receive special recognition by the appoint.
Ing power at AnaApolis know II would
be useless for me to indulge In Aattering
comments, but do unhszitatlnsiy assert
that his appointment would, In my opin.
Ion. merit the general approval Of q major.
ity OF the votsF Of old 81 Mayy's. His
competency Is beyond questioning, while
his fidelity to the democratic party renders
him doubly deserving ofits influence. In
making the selection for this important 20.
silion our Legislative body should look
well 70 the tobacco growing interest Of the
State, and under no consideration should
IN inexperienced tobacco grower receive
thia very important trust. BY no means
can they better serve their constituents than
by acceding to their wishes By appointing
good officials. In this way they serve ~
directly and not indirectly.

State In the Union in which citizens pro-
perty, the product of his labor, is forcibly
taken charge Of by the State and sold under
discriminating restrictions ruinous to his in
teressa. We, the tobacco planters, have un-
der our Constitution and form Of govern
ment the equal rights in common with all
other citizens to ship and dispose of our to-
bacco free from State interference. We feel
competent to care for ourselves without the
guardianship of the State, and the buyer
should be competent to do likewise. Two
thirds ofthe tobacco made in the State is the
product Of men Of small means, and 1t is the
only merchantable article that commands
the cash to enable them to procure the gro
ceries and clothing necessary for their fam
lilies, and the question at issue is a matter Of
serious Importance to them. We want
planters rights, free trade and free inspec-
tons. How long is this obsolete and OPP
pressiye system to be imposed on us
TOBACCO EXCHANGE.
The prosperous grain growing counties
of the State have corn exchange, where
every sample and every sale is open to in
spection, competition is free and prices un-
form according to quality and condition;
but tobacco, figuratively speaking, is sold
sin ways that are dark in "nooks and
corners" without comparison Of prices, no
standard value, and consequently the buy
er going the rounds has all the information
and points in his favor. Why not have a
tobacco exchange, where all samples could
be collectively exhibited and publicly soldS
