.Cotton Seed Oil Mill.

KThe work on the Oil Mill is being pushed
steadily to completion, under tho manage
ment of the energetic president, Mr.. w. A.
Nicholson, who deserves n great deal of credit
for the interest he has taken in the enter
prise, having watched the work closely as it
progressed. The building is pronounced by
Mr.. Wilson, of Charlotte, n. G, who is now
engaged in placing the machinery, as being
as fine rs any he has ever seen, both in its
architectural arrangement and location.
The building is certainly an ornament to
the town, and being located near the business
centre, it adds greatly TO the many at
fractions of Union.
Alrcai" the enterprise has given employ
mcnt to IA great number who would have
been idle otherwise. Those employed a-c
| laborcrs who reside here, and spend their
earnings among us, thus giving cvery bust
ness an increase of patronage, and making
every business man directly Interested in
its Success Az q home enterprise it should
be encouraged by all of our citizens, and re-
| ccivc solid home encouragement and support.
We cannot see why all the cotton seed now
sold in Union should not be sold to the Union
Cotton Seed Oil Mill, especially when the
home Mill offers the same price rs foreign
| Mills.
We contend that the home Mill has para
mount claims upon the farmers Of Union, for
| it has already been the means of increasing
| the price Of seed. Last year sellers got III
to l5c per bushcl for seed; this year seed is
selling at l9 cts.
We often hca" persons predict failures for
small enterprises, on the grouud that mo
nopolics and Trusts will crush them out
They abuse monopolcs and Trusts, bu mt tho
same time they patronizc monopolies and
| Trusts instead of the small home enterprises
With words they wish the home enterprise
success, but by their actions, they encourage
monopolicS and fruits, often greatly to the
| dctrimcnt Of their home enterprises.
Let our people he more consistent and
| pull together, for be assured in that way
only can We break up the great commercial
Bull Monopolics and Trusts. And this can
only he done by encouraging and supporting
home enterprises, if it is only in selling cot
ton seed to home cotton seed mills, rather
| than to foreign mills.

THE KNIGHTS uF LABOR AND FARMERS
ALLIANCE.-AtlantaN Nov. l5 The committee
on law resumed its report Immediately
after the Knights OF Labor convention wa,
called to order to-day, and continued until
the hour arrived when Col. J.. F. Livingston
president of the Farmers Alliance, was to
be received. A committee was appointed
to escort the representative Of the farmers
TO the hall, and when they returned they had
with them besides Colonel Livingston. Judge
Henderson, Commissioner If Agriculture,
B. F. Gray. editor Of the Natonm Econon,ist
and Harry Brown, editor Of the Georgia
Farmer.
Colonel Livingston was received with i'm
mense applause.
lie said that other work had prevented
his studying the objects of the Knights Of
Labor, but he felt sure that when the con-
venlion met at st. Louis, December Sd,
confederation would be formed, and he also
felt sure that it would be equally benefcent
to both orders.
In Powderly's reply he thanked God for
this day, and said the day when farmers
and mechanics should stand side by side
and work for the same object had always
been dream Of his.
The entire meeting was most enthusiastic,
and every mention of tho confederation of
the two orders was met with laundering ap-
plause.
