TILLMAN AGAIN TO THE FRONT.

Farmer B. R. Tillman, Chairman of the
Farmers Association, has issued a call fol
the meeting of the association, to be held
at Columbia on Wednesday night, Novem-
Der 14th. Each county is entitled to send
five delegates, and the executive COM
mittee urgently requests that there be a
full representation. The following is a
CODY of the call, addressed Ito the Farm
.ers of South Carolina: =
Two years ago last April there assem-
bled in Columbia the first Farmers Con-
vention. It was composed of represen-
tative men from nearly every county,
and demanded certain reforms in our edu-
c~ational system, and in the management
of the State Government. The November
following another Farmers Convention
met and entered into a permanent organi-
zation, under the name of the Farmers
Association of South Carolina.
This Association then and there reitera-
ted the demands of the first convention as
to the need of agricultural education in
this State, and pressed other reforms in
the Government, some of which have
been granted and others refused. That the
agitation inaugurated by this movement
has been of vast benefit to the agricultur-
al interests of our State, no one will deny,
and a continuance of the agitation is only
necessary to crown our efforts with sue
cess.
Therefore, in issuing this call to our
brother farmers to meet again, we feel
that we can point with satisfaction to
what we have accomplished as an earnest
of what we hope to accomplish in the fu-
ture with united and continued efforts.
The next meeting of the Farmers Associ-
alton will be held in Columbia, in Agri-
cultural Hall, Wednesday night, Novem-
Der 18th, at 8 o'clock P. NJ. Each county
is entitled to send five delegates, and the
executive committee urgently requests
that full delegations from each county be
present.
By order Of the executive committee.
B. r. TILLMAN, Chairman.

sCuoo1 MEETIN& PROPOSED.

It is contemplated to call a meeting OF
citizens at an early date for the purpose OF
making another effort Ito secure the advan'
tages of a graded school in Yorkville'
The benefits to be derived from such an
institution are too apparent to require ex'
e%mplifcation in a newspaper article at this
time; and besides it is hoped that much O.
the opposition to the enterprise a year ago
has been removed since the question is
now more clearly understood by some
who then opposed it.

A NOTE OF WARN1NG.-In his speech
at Cheraw last Thursday, Senator Butler
sounded the following note of warning 10
the South Carolina Democracy:
This question (the Republicans and their
black allies,) is of great Importance to US.
We are an integral part of the great DEMO
cratic party of the United States. we
cannot afford to shut ourselves up from
this great question of the day. 1t be-
hooves us to be on the alert. Democrats
are strong in South Carolina. Yes, too
strong for their good. They are over-con-
fdent in their strength. We are upon the
verge of a volcano. We will wake up
some day to find ourselves in the vocative.
Our primaries are over, and many OF us
have, as it were, lost sight of politics.
Our primaries are merely nominations
and not elections. We should be active.
1t is of great importance. l was told TO-
day that there were many Democrats IN
this county who did not even know when
the election is to come off. This is a sad
state of affairs. 1 repeat that no people,
situated as we are, should be so Indifferent
to the government. Our officers are men
of integrity and ability but how long
will this continue if we fold our arms and

that November 6 shows that the Democrats
of South Carolina are not asleep.
STARVATION IN THE VEST. H..
Harpmann, of Minneapolis, who has been
investigating the condition of farmers in
Ramsey county, Dakota, who were report.
ed to be starving to death, has returned
home. He says there are several families
who are absolutely destitute of food and
fuel, and something must be done and i'm
mediately. The real condition of the
people is beyond description. Men, wo-
men and children are in rags, and have
not a cent of money in the world. Their
crops are totally destroyed, and their land,
stock and farm implements are mOrtgaged.
Absolute distress prevailed everywhere.
A minister was living in n room with
his wife and two small children. One Of
the latter was wrapped up in a crib, in
order to keep warm, and the other was
blue and shivering with cold and hunger.
There was no fuel, with the exception of a
little dry manure, which is all that any of
the families have to burn; and the only
thing they had to eat was dry crusts of
bread. Mr.. Harpmann says the frost
which came in August destroyed all of the
wheat that there was, as we'll as all veg
etables-even those which are as hardy as
turnips.
