Congress is not likely, says the New York
Horld, to close up and go home until after the
Senate decides what it will do with the tariff
problem. Senator Allison announces that the
completed Tariff Bill will be reported TO the full
Committee on Finance next Wednesday, but it
NAV not reach the Senate for several days
thereafter Once there it is difficult to predict
what will be done with it, or when Congress
will finally adjourn.

take pleasure in writing few lines to
let you hear from u.s. We received
our charter last February, and up to
this writing there are Sd members on
the roll, 4 applicants to initiate at the
hext stated meeting and S applicants
to act upon. We receive members at
almost every meeting and the brethren
manifest considerable interest in the
order; times are Frightening up and
the farmers are being encouraged to
hope for better days. We are trying
to inform ourselves on the various
questions that directly effect the farm
ers' interest, and I think we have ac-
complished some good.
There will be public speaking at
our Lodge on the 7th of September,
and the members anticipate one of the
grandest times since our organization.
This writer will inform the brethren
Of other sections of the State what q
time we had, and how good it is To

WAKE FoREsr,a Sept. 8,la8S.


Col L. IT, PotK. - Dear SIR AS
we have heard a great deal in regard
to the bagging trust lately, we desire
for the information of ourselves and
the information of the members of
the Alliance, to know how our cotton
is weighed when it reaches Liverpool,
is it not a fact that all cotton shipped
to Liverpool is stripped entirely of
bagging and ties and that there is a
certain and stipulated amount de-
Quoted by our middlemen from our
prices here to cover the ~ pounds de-
Quoted by the Liverpool merchants.
In other words, if we understand it,
our cotton when it reaches the foreign
market is weighed, without anything
on it at all and consequently our
merchants here have to, make an
allowance in prices to cover the loss to
themselves in having the cotton
weighed here covered up and when
sold stripped of its covering. III
am not mistaken, the average weight
of bagging and ties is 81 pounds.
Now we would like to ask if the bag
ging and ties used by our farmers is
not a clear loss to us, we not receiving
one cent l'for' our outlay in wrapping
up our cotton to protect it until it
reaches its destination in some foreign
land, ,oy # this is a fact that it at last
comes snN out Of the ofagmers4 agm pockets

by chemists and oil mill men that cot!

i know. that raw cotton seed oil has no.
fertilizing properties. :iThe same can
be said as to raw .cetton seed, both
will have to undergo decompesing'
process before it is fit for plant food.
Actual field test shows that cotton seed,
meal will increase the cotton crop IA
per cent over the whold seed ;asame
moneys worth per acre, cotton seed at
18 cents per bushel and cotton seed
meal at $23. 90 pei. ton at our depot.
By actual field test crushed cotton
seed will increase the cotton crop 35
per cent. over the whole seed, which
shows that the crushed seed is worth
81 per cent. more as a fertilizer than
the cotton seed meal. Calculating at
the foregoing price Of cotton seed and
Cotton seed meal, can our planters
afford to lose q pei, cent on their. cot
ton seed to put q profit OF at least $5
per ton on cotton seed meal into the
pocket Of oil mill companies The oil
mill men should pay % cents per

the meal at our depots at $1,000 per

|smEDIToR FARMER:-As' L see the
graspings of the greedy monopolies Of
our country, and think Of the strug-
Cling, striving masses of our people
who are kept poor and are growing
poorer by said monopolies, a little
Sunday school hymn wells up in my,
mind, "Oh, what shall we do to be-
saved p It is serious question; one
upon which too much thought cannot,
be expended. teWhat shall we doStor
be saved7'' Asa means to- that end
we must organize. And we must
organize with the purpose of staying
organized Each one of US must de-
termine in his own mind that NO mat
ter what others may do, he will re-.
main true to the obligations he took
upon himself when he entered the
organization, And brethren. don't
decry our, order; don't speak lightly
of it. Have faith; believe that we
will accomplish great good. Hope
for the best Look on the best side
of the picture but be sure that you
know what is on the other side. Let
us prepare ourselves for any emerI
gency. We know that our quarrel
with the monopolist is just. Shake
speare says: ssThrice is he armed that
hath his quarrel just; and he but
naked, tho1locked upi in steel, whose
conscience with injustice iscorrupted.
,s Beyond a shadow Of doubt the
monopolist is locked up in steal, and
his conscience he has any-with
injustice is corrupted. It has been
said that farmers will not stick to-
gether. Brother farmers, let me beg
of you, stick together; be ready to
sacrifice for the good of the order.
Disprove the assertion and show to
our accusers and make them feel that
we are power in the iand.i Keep up
with the political issues of the day,
so that you can vote intelligently. We
are a mighty power in the land, and

feel it, for they always forget us and
