Immortality.

Are they looking down upon us,
Loved ones who have gone before?
In :. world of light and glory,
Do they love as of yore!
Are the bright ewes closed in slumber,
Oped and gazing from on high,
Beaming with clearer vision,
Watching o'er us, yea, for aye!
Do they know our thoughts and feelings.
Know our inmost thoughts to read?
Do they mourn when we are tempted?
When we fail to SOW good seed?
Are they watching, are they waiting
For the coming of our feet?
Will the same fond hearts receive us?
Will the same sweet voices greet?
Who shall say they are not with US?
Men of science and of lore,
Can you tell us with your wisdom,
As you DER your volumes pore.
If the heavens are far beyond US
If those realms are high above?
Or a region all around us,
Where's Gods messengers of love?
Are uplifting human creatures,
Helping them each day and hour,
Better to sustain their burdens,
Better yet to know his power?
Or is it Il world of glory,
All divided from our own,
Where no difference can mingle
With the trials earth has known?
OH for hope that comes to gladden.;
Oh for faith that doth assure
That our loved ones have not left us,
Though immortal now, and pure,
They are still beside us walking,
Though unseen by mortal eye,
They are working in His vineyard,
They are with the Father, nigh.

Senator Cullom tells a good story
and not being given TO practicing
law much himself, I suppose he can

"Meet with sufficient fayors from

"All could ask"
"Then what was it compelled you
to quit it?"
"Well, I'll tell you-I was too
honest"
A loud laugh from the bystanders
aroused "Uncle Joe" into earnest

statement, and nailed il TO his shop

The Shoe G Leather reporter of New York City
and the Shoe G Leather ReUieU of Chicago, the lead
ing trade papers of the U. S., in the Hide and
Leather line, have both sent their representatives
invt tigate Mr. Pages business, and after
thorough examination and comparison, the Reporter
gives him this endorsement: "We believe that in
extent of ght-weght raw material, collected and
carried, Mr.. Page holds the lead of any competitor
and that his present stock is the largest held by any
house in this country" And the ReDie,U says :
''After thorough investigation of MIR. Pages
business, as compared with others in the same line
we have become fully satisfied that in his speciality
lightweight stock, he is unquestonably the largest
dealer in this country, while in superiority of quail
ity he is cOnfessedly at the head.''
QUERY: If Mr.. Pages business is the largest in
its line in the United States, is it not the best possi
bic indication of his ability to pay highest prices?
If he did not do so, would he naturally get more
than any of his competitors in the same line?

HOW WE APPLES DO SWIM II

It is said that new converts shout
loudest. Some of the finest speeches
we ever heard in defence of the. South
and. its Immortal .valor; were from men
who skulked the war and never, smelt
gun powder. We. remember to have
hsardsa tgrandiloquent effort Of this
kind from a man who wore to the
front a= white homespun haversack
underline charge of a conscript officer:
To have heard his speech one would
thoughtsthat-he was lying in ambush
Tor Tie Yankees at Bull Run for d
full week before the ,Sonthern~army
arrived. We are reminded of these
things by the arrogant and ridiculous
position of the Atlanta Constitution in
regard to the bagging trust fight.
That paper, in its issue of the I'd inst,
says: a.TIhe. Constitution has led the
farmers Sfght against the bagging
trust" This claim will excite quiet
smile with many of its North Caro-
lima : readers. For they. know that
the files of.the~ Constitution wilt show
that after the farmers of this State
had risen up: and denounced this rob-
berry, and while. The PROGRESSIVE
FARMER was. ringing it's rallying cry
all along the lines, that journal was
publishing cringing articles to prove
to the farmers that resistance to the
trust was folly, and cotton wrapped in
anything but jute was not merchant
able and would not be insured. Other
prominent andinhuential papers joined
the Constitution and stood by it under
the white flag. ~
"The Constitution has led the farm
ers' fight against the bagging trust
indeed /! 1t is an easy task and does
not require much nerve or courage: or
~generalship to lead an army of men
who are in full charge on the enemy
and are determined to conquer. God
save the farmers of the South from
such leadership, and their rights from
such protection !! "'-@

the prices would Justify it's SALE BY
this means the speculation Of cotton
would be, broken up.
| believe if these two methods We4Fe
carried out-and it can be done-thfe
cotton planters Of the South would
realize, at the lowest calculation s$$lQQ,-
600, 600 over the price received for
the crop Of 1887, and 1 think more
than probable it might reach, $780,
600, 600, ordouble the amount realized
for the cotton ofpfsse:t aI'regret: that
the meeting Of the National Alliance
was postponed to'ssuucch a late date. It
seems to me that plans should be
adopted at the earliest practicable
moment for the baling and handling
Of the ,eeaEfepp Of 1889. Cannot our
State Executive: Committee be-, in
duced to look into the cost of:building
and equipping factories of sufficient
capacitytfor the manufacture Of these
materials for the next crop +? I be-
lieve that the Alliance will rapidly
subscribe stock enough for such pur-
pose. Do not depend on outside fac.
tories. If we wish to succeed, every
Alliance man should, put his shoulder
to the wheel and push.

PINE STRAW

The PROGRESSIVE FARMER received
from the Acme Manufacturing Co.,
Wilmington, n. c., a roll of their pine
straw bagging, and we have sent
samples of it all over the country and
as far South as Texas.
We presented Mr.. W. G.aCrowder,
of Cary, a.wrapping for a bale of cot
ton, which he sold in this market last
week. He is highly pleased with it.
1t was handled in every way by dray-
men and the hands'at the compress as
jute bagging, and the universal testi-
mony of all is, that it is fully equal, if
not superior, to jute bagging in all
respects. The company Is arranging
to ge-into It's manufacture on q large

CROP OUTLOOK IN NORTH CAR.
DINA.

It is thought by many that the
heavy rains in North Carolina have
done more damage to tobacco than the
drought. There is but little prospect
of much. fine tobacco being cured, The
main bulk Of it will be Of a coarse,
dark quality. Those who are SO for
tunate as, to have on hand any bright
tobacco will before another yea" rolls
around find it in great demand at high
prices In sections where the crop
promised to be equal to that of last
year. the wind and rains have seriously
damaged it. Our reports from. those
who have seen any of the new: crop
cure r not at all encouraging. The
farmers are very gloomy, while the
spectators are hopeful that prices-wi
very shortly take sudden rise,-Dur-

THE BAGGING% 'QUEsT1oN.

"A highly intelligent and very prac-
tical gentleman, a jealous member of
the Farmers Alliance, writing from
Stantonsburg, in Wilson county, sends
US the following very sensible article on
the "Bagging Question:" which we
commend to the careful consideration
of the fraternity. He says the cover
ing used by the farmers for their cot
ton, after this year, should be cotton,
by all means, and that not only should
it be bagged with cotton, but tied
with cotton rope, and suggests that
eight of such ropes would be better
than six. He says: 1t is estimated
that the present cotton crop will reach
1000, 900 bales. To cover this amount
andntie it with rope, would require
about 25 pounds per bag. This takes
400, 900 bales from the market, there.
BY enhancing the value of cotton and
leaving the money spent for jute and
ties ip the cotton section. The price,
we cannot fairly estimate, but think
not less than two cents per pound
So per bale Ooo, 900 on the cot
ton crop of the; South. Besides this,
the bagging and rope could be dis
posed Of to- the paper,maker,. and at
least one dollar per bale saved. Cot
ton would 60 to market free from jute
stain and command a better price.
The use of the cotton bagging would
necessarily lead to the building Of
factories in our midst, and the en-
ployingo Of numbers of our own PEG.
Pile, and the keeping of money at
home! i ~ aia4 sass $40
4 give you my ideas on another
subject, which it occurs to me would
be of great value tothe farmers: At
least. one cotton yard should be estab-
1ished in every cotton county Of. the
South, and good substantial sheds,
covered with slate orion, erected for
the storage of the cotton. The farm
ers should have their own weighers
ers and sellers. We are already taxed
at least twenty-five cents per bale for
weighing and handling. Now this
much money would build the sheds
and pay the agents to handle and sell
