Cartoon on the Agricultural Agitation

Your correspondent has been prcsented

agitation. tits the work Of Newberry

but in the distance is seen large and
handsome building. This bnilding for
the puroses Of the politicians is called m
agricultural college, but lis actually the
Governors mansion. Approaching this
edifice along dusty road two political
teams are travelling, The firstis some
what dilapidated wagon drawn by a
spaliued mule and an aged OK. The
driver is Moses Tillman, arrayed in his
priestly robes and bearing in his hand q
rod, which serves the purpose of alag
staff, upon the top Of which serpent
represents the banner of the organiza-
ton. In the front of ..the wagon, at
Moses's feet are the stone tablets with
the commandments. The wagon is
filled to overflowing. This crowd is
called the "Lost tribe Of Israel" The
wagon is evitenly overloaded, as one
wheel is leaving the axle and the motive
power is rapidly becoming exhausted.
Riding rapidly in the rear is the Master
Of the State Grange mounted on a new.
bicycle, to which is attached stout
wagon by arope. The rider calls out to

q Reilly are the victims an i the Drum
mers' Protective Association is the NOV
ing force. The boycott has been order
ed because Cover & Reilly refused to
haul baggage to and from the depots for
less than twenty cents each way, and is
being executed by colored teamster
who was engaged by representatives Of
the Association and provided with
a badge designed to secure him the pat
ronage Of all drummers.
For the last two years Greenville has
given the cheapest hauling in the eoun-
toy to travellers. The bitter competi-
ton between the street car line, operat-
ed by Gilbreath & Harris, and the omni-
bus line operated by Cover & Reilly
put down the price of hauling passen-
gers from the depots to the hotels
distance Of a mile and quarter-to ten
cents and the price for baggage per
piece to the same figure. These prices
caused most Of the hauling to be dead
loss, especially that of baggage. When
Gilreath & Harris sold the street car
line to Cover & Reilly, the latter put
up the price for hauling baggage to
twenty-five cents per piece. A commit
tee Of the Protective Association pro-
tested against this, whereupon Gewer &
Reilly wrote letter explaining the cir
cumstances and showing that they could
not haul baggage except at loss for
less than the concession rate they offer
ed in the same letteI-forty cents per
piece for hauling both ways, from and to
the depots. No reply has been received
to this letter but the boycott has been
put in force against the baggage wagon.
Cover & Reilly are holding the fort Sc
renely, as they are willing, they say, to
let somebody else take chances ON haul
ing baggage while they continue to car
ry passengers, that being the paying
part Of the business.

Pest Mertem Kindness.

The burden Of life would not be 80
heavy NOT the way so long and weary,
if one half Of the kind words we intend
to say after our friends arc dead, were
spoken while they are living. They need
en- neouragement and cheer now while in
the thickest OF the fight. Often times
they arc weary, sad and disbeartened.
A few brave, cheery words wonld be
like cold water to a thirsty soul. The.
flowers that are sent for their coffins or
planted around their graves cast no fra
GRANGE backward over the weary way
that has bern trodden with bruised and
bleeding feet.
The kind and apprecia,ive words we
whisper Mt the funeral are powerless to
reach the hurdened spirit and broken
heart. The aiabaster boxes of sympa-
thy and love broken over, the tomb
Of departed worth are like flowers.

LYnching.

We have no approval for lynch law un-
der any circumstances. There are cases,
it is true, when outraged human
nature loses all self control, and puts
to death the wrongdoer. Here society
condones what it cannot help. Yet if
lynching is an outrage in Hampton, we
fail to see why it is less so in Spartan
burg. The trouble about the whole
matter is that lynching in one case leads
to it in another. And if one mob may
lynch another may do likewise, and thus
there is no law left but that Of the IL
censed mob, which may slay whom it
will. There is no escape from the con-
clusion that lynch law is the greatest Of
wrong TO human society, in 80 much
thnt it dispenses with regulated justice,
without which there is neither social
order, justice nor reasonable security
Of life and limb but at the mercy of an
infuriated mob. What begins with what
seems righteous retribution. is sure to
run swiftly into mob law with it's knife
whetted as well for the innocent as the
guilty. No mob is capable Of a dispss-
sionate trial, and without that the guilt
is ont brought home to the accused, and
he is simply made sacrifice to human
fury. Ineendiary editorials justifying
such acts are worse than mistakes, they
counsel wrong and invite criminal dis
order. And it is too late when We have
justified lynciDg in one community to
cry out against itas murder in another

Las, week, with some Augnsta ladies
visited Col. james 4. Snead, who is
Chief Of the Treasury Bond Division.
He showed as the ponderous ste el and
granite vault where 80 much wealth is
deposited. Many curious. faded and
plain securities were exhibited. some Of
which had been issued for the purchase
of Louisiana. One package Of registered
bonds we were allowed TO hold for
moment. 1t was worth 100000. A
month ago the VandeEbilts came over
and divided between them $35, ,O0O,O 600, a
small part of their combined fortunes.
We all think our lots would have been
better If some Of those millions had
fallen to us, but it is grand thing to
handle 50 much opulence curiously and
not envy the possessor, vho. God knows
may have cares that some of us need
not desire. And yet, with rare excep-
tions, there are no persons, even the
most pious, who do TO: crave money.
It enters into the very marrow of hu-
manity because it represents not only
ordinary comfort but all necessities Of
rent fuel, subsistence = what not ? !.
There is many man or woman who
would be nobler, better, more useful

Ireland's:Patron Saint.

1here are many curious and interest
| ing legends connected with St. Patrick.
Almost as many countries arrogatc the
honor of having been the soil upon
| which he was born as have made a
similar claim with respect to Homer.
Scotland, England, France and Wales
each furnish their respective pretcn-
sions. But whatever doubts may OBJ
scure his birthplace all agree that he
was of a patrician family. He was
born about the year 387, and when 16
years OF age was carried off by pirates,
who sold him into slavery in Ireland.
Here he passed seven. years, during
which time he acquired knowledge of
the Irish language and made himself
acquainted with the manners, habits
and customs Of the people.
Escaping from captivity, after many
adventures, he reached the continent
and was 'successively ordainee deacon,
priest and bishop, and then once more,
with the AUTHORITY Of Pope Celestine,
he returned to ireland to perach the
gospel to its then hcathen inhabitants
Of the many miracles that he performed
tho greatest was that Of driving the
vencmous reptiles out Of Ireland and
rendering the Irish soil forever after,
30 obnoxious to the serpent race that
they instantly die on touching it. 1t
is related by somo authorities that St.
Patrick accomplished the feat by beat
ing drum, which he struck with such
fervor that he knocked hole in it,
thereby endangering the success of the
miracle. But an angel appearing,
mended the drum, and the patched in
strument was long exhibited as a holy
relic.
In the Galtee or Gaultie mountains,
between the caunties Of Cork and Tip
perarY, there are seven lakes, in one Of
which, called Lough Dilveen, it is said
st. Patrick, after banishing all the
snakes and toads from Ireland, chained
monster serpent telling him te re-
main there TIT M Monday. The serpent
every Monday morning called out in
Irish :: ATS long Monday, Patrick"
Then st. Patrick chained the serpent
in Lough Dilveen, and that the serpent
calls out to him every Monday morn
ing is still firmly believe by the lower
orders who live iu the neigoborhood' Of
the Lough.
or st. Patrick much that has been
handed down in tradition is fabulous,
but his photographed confession"
reveals to us devout simple minded.
unlettered man, and most discreet and
energetic missionary.
There is pretty belief connected
with the shamrock or small white clover
which is almost universally worn in the
hat all over Ireland on ST. Patrick's day,
and in other countries where it is found.
The popular notion is that when St.
Patrick was preaching the doctrine of
the Trinity to the pagan Irish he used
this plant bearing three leaves upon one
stem to symbolic the great mystery.
AS the birthplace of St. Patrick has
been disputed, so has that Of his burial.
| But he died on the 18th Of March, the
day now sacred to his memory, and the
general evidence indicates that he was
buried at Downpatrick and that the re-
mains of Saint Bridget were laid beside
him.

y
were in the House Of Representatives
II farmers ip 1928. 73 farmers in
16S3-94, 79 farmers. 1t will be seen
that there has not been since 1880 q sin
gle session Of the Legislature in which
the farmers have not had safe working
majority in the lower branch Of the
Legislature. In the Senate, in 1880,
there were II Senators who were farm
ers. In 1882 there were II farmers, and
in 1884 there were 16 farmers in the
Senate. 1t will be seen that in this
branch Of the General Assembly the
farmers since 1880 have had IN equal
representation.
And now word about the work ofthe
Legislature. In 1881 $40 Acts were
passed, Of which 46 directly affected
the agricultural intsres. In 1882 the
total number Of Acts passed was 179,
Of which 16 were upon subjects ap-
pertaining to agricultural interests.
In 1883, 2S3 Acts were passed. Of which
81 were passed for the benefit Of the
farmers. In 1884, lsf ACTS were passed,
Of which 18 were passed fer, the benefit
of the farmers. In 1885. 257 Acts
we're passed, OF which So were for the
benefit Of the farmers. For the five
years ending in December last. l52 Acts
have been passed by the General Assem-
bly, for the benefit or the farmers, an
average of more titan 80 Acts q year.
All of these Acts, in fact, were passed
directly upon the petition of farmers,
or upon representations made to the
members Of the General Assent bly, that
the agricultural interests demanded the
Legislation provided in these Acts.
Having clear majority in the General
Assembly, and being able to secure
whatever legislation they demanded,
it is evident that if the farmers had de-
sired more or any other legislation they
could easily have secured it. 1t should
also be remembered that majority of
all the Acts passed by the Legislature
have been Acts for the incorporation
Of railroads, and manufacturing and
other industrial enterprises in which
the farmers have been as much in
terested as any other class of citi-
Zcns-
1t is assumed that the farmers who
have heen sent to Columbia were the
best representatives that could be found
in their various sections. They were
elected as farmers, were elected by the
votes Of farmers, and if they have failed
in any way to do their duty to the farm
crs, it necessarily follows that the
farmers themselves are to blame for any
lack Of such legislation rs they needed or
required.
Having. as we have already shown, and
as the leaders Of the farmers movement
claim, clear majority os all the voters
in the State, it is evident that, working
with in the lines Of the Democratic party,
and controlling the election machinery
in all Of the counties, the farmers have
the remedy for wrongs safely within
their own hands.
These facts are given IN order that
the people may have clear conception
Of the relutive strength Of the farmers in
the General Assembly, and also in order
that they may judge for themselves as
to the merits of the movement which is
now in progress.-Ne,cs and Courier.
