farmers to make an effort to raise an
equally large crop Of corn again this
year.
The Record says: 'Before another
crop is raised the West will be almost
bare Of corn, and stocks will be at such
a low point that an unusually heavy
crop for the whole country would be SO
greatly needed to supply the deficiency
OF 1887 and to meet current wants that
prices would still continue high, even
if the weld be Very large. 1t is very
important, therefore, not only for the
good of the South III general, but es-
pecially for the prosperity Of the far
mers, that they should again raise a
large corn crop.'
We cali attention to this fact ut this
time in the hope that the farmers will
heed the warnin" and again raise 4
large cora crop. 1t is now planting
time. and they will find it to their in
tcrest to make the effort III this direc-
tion. The sale of corn this year, up TO
the present time, has not been as large

PROHIBITION PARTY.

The Voice, a prohibition paper in
New York, in a late issue published eX-
tracts from letters from persons living
III this State favoring the organization
of prohibition party in South Caro-
lima. These letters are written from
Charleston, Laurens, Chester, Col
umbia, Winnsboro, Orangeburg and
Anderson. We would not be sur
prised to see the democracy in this
State divided at an early day on
this very question. Whenever this
party is formed the negro vote will hold
the bai;,rce Of power. The elections
held in the various counties on this
question demonstrates this fact.

The Mount Bethel Farmers.
1Greenville News.

At meeting of the Mt. Bethel farm
ers Club, of Laurens, last week the fol-
lowing preamble and resolutions were
offered by Enoch Mitchell, Esq, which
were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, the farmers of South Caro-
lima have, for a long time, eschewed
politics, relying implicitly upon the in
tegrity of their chosen representatives,
and whereas an abuse of confidence has
become so manifest, and the combina-
ton of power of select politicians so pal
pably aggressive and dictato1ial in their
actions, and whereas such pretentious
methods can only serve to destroy the
best interest and harmony Of our peo-
pie. Therefore be it
Resolved, lst. That resolutions adopt
ed by the Lisbon Farmers Club, whilst
couched in strong language, neverthe-
less sustained by official testimony, we
give it as our opinion that it will de-
Volve upon Gov. Richardson to prove
by his future action the truth or falsity
of the charges preferred.
ID. The News and Courier in refus-
ing to publish the proceedings of Farm
ers' Clubs when respectfully requested
to do so land any newspaper crltlclslng
the Farmers Movement without just
cause) have given evidence of treachery
to the farming interest, and should not
I've patronized by them.
Sd. AS citizens of common country,
we demand the respect and attention
of our State officers as well as the Press,
and unless our wishes are gratified We
will not withhold our censure nor con-
dennation.
4th. If this is a government OF the
people, by the people and for the peo-
pie, then it should be governed accord
ingly. but trucking, trading and
doubtful politicians are not worthy of
confidence, and to such we will not
give support.
5th. We recognize in Capt. B. r.
Tillman an able advocate, and join in
the conceded fact that he has rendered
invaluable services to the farmers of the
State, and earnestly request him to
continue his work of exposing mystic
problems, and assure him Of our hearty
cooperation.
After the business of the club was
concluded, Capt. Shell, the county
chairman of the Farmers Organization,
was invited to address the club. Capt.
Shell addressed himself directly to the
duty of farmers, urging the necessity of
thorough organization, and advised an
unconditional demand for an "Agri-
cultural College," separate and distinct
from any University or College, and
denounced the methods used to defeat
the reasonable demands of the farmers,
and exposed the mal-appropriation OF
the funds given by the Federal Govern
mcnt toadvance agricultural education.
This and similar questions will be
prominent in the coming campaigns,
and all interested had as well take heed:
This club is solid for the farmers
movement, as originated by Capt. B.
R. Tillman, and its motto is, "Hurrah
for Tillman."
On motion, the following state pa
pers were respectfully requested to pub
fish the preamble and resolutions pass
ed by our club at this meeting: Char

LETUS HAVE THE PRIMARY.

As far as we have been able to OBJ
serve, the people want Il primary cleo
ton, not only for county officers and
members of the Legislature, but also
for the nomination Of Solicitors and
Congressmen. We had the primary
election in this District at the last elcc-
ton for the nomination Of 4 Congress-
man, and, we think, the plan gave gen
eral satisfaction. We think the voters Of
this judicial circuit want a primary
election for the nomination OF d Sole
itor. Each county will have candl-
date in the coming contest for Solicitor,
and the primary plan is the only way
to secure the choice of the people. BY
alfmeans let us have the primary then.
Inasmuch as the nomination OF State
ticket means the election of the same,
we are rather of the opinion that it
would be better to have the State ticket
nominated by a primary election. Ihe
campaign and the canvas is very life
less and nonotonous sort of thing IN
our present situation, after the nomlna-
ton of ticket has been made by the
convention. This is Il matter that
should be considered by the people be-
fore the meeting Of the State Conven-
ton, so that the delegates elected to that
convention could 90 there knowing the
wishes of those they go to represent III
this matter. In order to have the prl-
mary plan the constitution Of the DEM
ocratic party will have to dc amended,
and this should be acted upon at the
meeting of the first State Convention,
which will, of necessity, be held in
May. The Greenviile News, in speak
ing of this subject, we'll says:
There is no scnse i'll ignorin" the
plain fact that the Democratic nomlna-
ton is virtually the election and that
if the people are not given the oppor'u-
nitv to vote on the nominations they
have no vote at all. That is ;;bhorrcnt
to every American and Democratic
principle and feeling and should not be
endured an instant longer that the
remedy can be found and applied by
earnest effort"
And then by this plan, possibly we
would hear less Of being controlled by
''the ring and the politicians and al
that sort of thing. Let the people say
bv their ballots who shall Till the offices,
and let the responsibility OF the Sclcc-
ton rest with them. There seems I" he
demand for this plan and it is worth
the while to make the experiment.

ADASTAEDLY ATTEMPT.
A Vil1ainous Effort to Wreck the South
bound Freight on the GreeRvile Road
Engineer Kinard Seriously Injured.
Especial to the Register.

NINETY SIX, S c., March ia vii
lainous attempt WAS made this morn
ing to wreck the Southbound freight
train, which is due here at 5:+5 O'Clock.
About two miles above this place, three
or four croSs-ties were placed across the
track, and just beyond them an old
whistle post had been knocked down
and also placed across the track. The
latter was knocked Oft the track by the
pilot, but the former W;lS too heavy and
the engine was thrown from the track,
and there being twenty-cight loaded
box cars behind, it ran about half Il
mile before it could be stopped. En-
gineer Ed Kinard, seeing the danger
that the engine WAS in ofbein@ dcrailed,
reversed the engine and in jumping off
in the dark he ran against L bush and
received very serioiis wound III his
eye; the snag graZcG the eyc-ball just
above the sight. The doctors say that
he will not lose his eye-sight. lie was
carried to Newberry. his home, this
evening on a material train, where he
will remain until he RECEIVERS enough to
90 back on his engine. Conductor
Gibson superintended the replacing Of
the engine upon the track and ran it to
Ninety-Six. where the engineer of the
material train carried it to Newbcrry.
Engineer Day came near sharing the
same fate 4 few nights ago on the fast
night freight, five or six crOss-ticS and
wagon being placed across the track
between New Market and Greenwood.
These were Rocked OFT the track and no
damage done. The person or persons
who placed these distractions on the
track were evidently intent upon doing
damage, and the authorities should Use
all means in their power TO find the
guilty and enforce upon them the eX-
tent of the law. 1t is said that one
Simpson, living near Ninety-SiN, re-
marked that he knew 4 great deal
about this matter.

Loss by Fire from Cigarettes.


Mr.. Ellis Phillips, who lives about
two miles from Harlem, lost eleven
bales of cotton by fire on Monday night.
He had them stored in Il buggy house
on his lot, and the building caught fire,
and together with the cotton and some
harness, was destroyed. The fire was
caused by several small negro boys, who
had procured scnl9 cigarettes and crept
into the shed, where they could enjoy
the forbidden luxury Of cigarette smoke
unseen. They had promised not to
touch or taste the filthy weed, but, one
of their number having invested in 4
supply, they could not resist the temp
tation. The result was the house and
contents were sacrificed. The cotton
was not insurcd.--Augusta Chronicle,
