What reply, we ask, will the

various trusts? What reply will they
make to the iniquitous demands of
the Republican party, which, through
its high tariff policy, calls upon them

THE FARMERS ASSOCI
ALTON.

The Inter State Farmers Associ-
alton met at Raleigh, last week. A
dispatch Of the 22d, says, the attend.
ancs was quite large. All except
two Southern States were repre-
sented. The convention adopted a
resolution declaring it to be the
policy of the Southern farmer to
encourage manufacturing enterprises.
Much time was devoted to the
discussion Of resolutions regarding
the cotton bagging and other trusts
These had all been paced in the
hands of special committees, which
reported them favorably af er making
some changes as adopted by the
convention. They call upon Con
gress to use all the power given it
by the Constitution and laws to
destroy existing trusts and prevent
the formation of such trusts and
combinations, and thus relieve the
people of cruel and unjust xaciings.
They endorse the action Of Senator
Reagan looking to the breaking xp
Of such trusts, and the punishment
of persons engaged in them.
An important resolution, which
was adopted by unanimous vote
calls on Congress to immediately
repeal the tax on imported jute, belts
and bagging, with view to defeat
bagging trusts.
The farmers were urged to unite
for the purpose Of using some other
material than jute or gunnv bagging
for bagging and baliny cotton.
Greetings we're sent the National
Farmers Convention at Topeka.
Kansas, and it was asked to COO: er
ate with this Association in tie

oppression of trusts.

then held. L. L. Polk, OF Raleigh.

A FARMER ON THE BAG.
GING TRUST.
News and Observer

Mr.. Richard w. Knott in the
Louisville Home and Farm goes to
the root of the bagging trust matter
with singular force and point. He
shows that the Jute Bagging Trust
is nothing short of an organized raid
on the Southern planters by North
ern capitalists, Boston capitalists, he
says: "Protected by the duty on
jute bagging." he explains, (which
excludes the foreign article, the Bos
ton syndicate bought from the man
ufacturers all the bagging on hand,
with the agreement that the mills
would shut down for five months, or
until the bagging for the crop is
purchased. Then the price began to
advance from seven cents, which
furnishes profit to the manufacturer,
until it is now eleven or twelve cents. 3"
"What," he asks, prevents the
American planter from buying his
bagging abroad?" And he answers
his own question in the statement :
"The tariff on jute bagging is, on
the lower grade, Il cents pound; on
that valued at 7 cents square yard,
2 cents, or 55 per cent"
The Mills bill puts jute and jute
bagging on the free list, SO that if it
were the law to day it would be worth
to the Southern farmer several mill
lions of dollars on the one item indi-
Gated alone.
The advance in the bagging, Mr..
Knott shows, is a dead loss to the
farmer. The latter "can get nothing
for his bagging; it is always counted
OFT in the price paid or in the
weight" The tariff on bagging, he
insists, "is bonus paid for the for.
nation of bagging trust
The tariff on cotton ties goes to
one or two establishments in Pitts
burg.
These are illustrations of how the
tariff robes the farmer"
The tariff on cotton ties is IS per
cent. That is to say, the planter pays
SI.35 for $1.oo worth of ties
Continuing as to the tax on bag
eing, Mr.. Knott says: "When the
cotton planter sends his cargo of
cotton abroad and gets in exchange
a cargo of jute bagging the officers
of the government conhscate one-third
of the return cargo at the custom
house, claiming it as an import tax
to protect the jute bagging trust"
And he concludes Indignantly as
follows: "Yet we are told that the
and the managers of
trusts and the officers of the Protec-

entire force of the Fire Department on
Manhattan Island was called TO the
threatened point. The whole immense
factory viii be destroyed. 1t is direct
~ opposite the Hospital for CriI pied

many recent fires.
The Potter x Stymus building was
shortly to be occupied by the Herter
Bros, also furniture manufacturers; w.
H. Ertell, furniture manufacturers, and
the Pneumatic TubeCompanv.Th build
ing was owned by POTTER & Stymus. The
Vanderbilt Hotel on the northeast cor
ner of Lexington Avenue and Forty
second Street was seriously damaged by
hre. The hospital for the ruptured on
the northwest corner was also badly
sCorched. At 2:30 the fire was under
control. The damage is estimated at
81 100000.
The elevated railway structure on
Forty second Street caught fire and the
ties burned Justify until the great walls
of the building fell and crushed down
the iron structure. The efforts of the
hremen were especially directed toward
saving the great storage building which
stood next the furniture factory. 1t
was filled with goods worth over ST.

shutters became red hot but the hun
dreds of streams of water which were
thrown on it prevented it from blazing.
The building was damaged considerably
but It's contents was saved. The roof of
It. Agnes Church caught fire several
times but the damage was small. Most
Of the losses are believed to be covered
fully by Insurance.

A Chicagoan's Mean Method of Obtain

n
ing Money.
Frank B. Johnson, good-looking
fellow of SO years, is in jail at Chicago
for having engaged himself to half a
dozen different women at the same time.
What was worse than promising to
marry them all, he is charged with
having borrowed money of them.
Miss Jennie Fisher, of ASP Wells
Street, of whom he borrowed
$500 on promise OF marriage, caused
his arrest for obtaining money under
false pretense. He went to jail in de-
fault of bail. He came before Judge
Prendergast on the 29th with a petition
for release on the ground that he is in
solvent and cannot pay the judgment,
which Miss Fisher secured against him.
Miss Jane A. Jansen, from whom John
son obtained 81 200 after he had engaged
to marry her, tainted before she could
give her evidence. After being restored,
she admitted that Johnson had
promised to make her his wife. Besides
Miss Jansen and Miss Fisher, Johnson
is alleged to have procured 5000 from
Mrs. o. L. Kelsey, of Wisconsin, and
SIS 800 form Mrs. Celia Wallace, who re-
sides at the Palmer House Among the
other complaining females in court Vi Bs
clearinghouse keeper, who claims
that Johnson left after offering her 81 900
to introduce him to one of her lady
