POLITICAL RIGHTS OF THE
FARMER.

IF we claim that the great indus
IL tries of the country are out OF
balance and must be readjusted, some
political Scion, will gravely inform US
that this savors somewhat of politics
and hence the farmers must not con-
Germ themselves about it. -
If we say that the agricultural IN.
terests are oppressed by unjust and
discriminating legislation, we areftold
that this can only be corrected by
political methods, hence the farmer
should have nothing to do with it.
If we claim that the legislation Of
the country, State and National, is
controlled by interests and by men
that r devouring our substance and
destroying the spirit of our manhood,
and that the farmers should be repre-
sented more largely and more faith
fully, and especially in, our National
Congress, we are calmly admonished
that the farmers should not ask for
class legislation.
If we show that all the great indus
tries OF the country are outstrlpplng
agriculture in the race of progress,
and that it is due to the m~anipulations
of corrupt and mercenary men who
influence the policy and shap the
systems by which this great inequality
is produced, we are told, with wave
of the hand, that our relief is to be
found in working harder and living
closer.
If we say we want a farmer for
Governor, for Senator OF for Con-
gress, we are told that the farmer
must not go into politics.
If we want any great economic or
political reform, we are told that
wher the farmer begins to dabble in
these great questions he will ruin
everything.
What, then, are his political rights?
What can he do and what should he
do2 According to this class of politi-
cal bosses and from their standpoint,
the farmer should enjoy the glorious and
erGhet privilege Of paying has tares and
of UOtin0 as he as told.

COTTON A FIBRE.

TT will be remembered that early
i last spring an article appeared in
this paper from MI. s. M. Thomas,
one of our energetic and enterprising
farmers of Richmond county, advo-
eating the utility of cotton stalk fibre
for the manufacture of bagging. We
gave our views in several subsequent
issues, coinciding with our friend in
the opinion that at no distant. day it
would be demonstrated that this
fibre could be substituted for jute and
that it would cost less than any fibre
that could be found.
We saw at Atlanta, bagging and
rope made of the fibre. It was OF
superior quality. A Georgia far.
mer has invented and patented a ma.
chine for gathering the entire fibre
from the stalk. He claims that the
stalks from one bale of cotton will
make sufficient bagging to cover five
bales. That it can be made for four
cents a yard of two pounds weight.
Any farmer can buy the castings and
make his W mill for gathering the
fibre at a cost not to exceed twenty
dollars and that the work can be
done by one mule and on rainy days.
The meeting at st. Louis will doubtless
investigate it.

THE smallest child in America
i who has gone through any Of the
simple arithmetics taught in our
schools would say ga sheets make l
quire," and with a lite calculstion
would tell you that there are 4 pages to
each sheet, "a times, 4 or SO pages to
each quire. Blank books are sold by
the quire, and you will find on the
back of each blank book figures rep.
resenting the number of quires in the
book. These figures a long time ago
did tell you the truth. But examine
your blank book now and lee for
yourself. Look at the figure on the
back at the bottom. You find g?
Yes. Well, that means 6 .quires, So
pages to the quire, or 576pages. How
many pages do you really find in the
book =? You look and youafnd only
432 ors4S0, or it may be as low down
as 288 pages, and yet were you not
told that there were SIX quires in that
book, and did you not have your at
tention called to that figure "6" on
the back of the book.2 and didn't the
clerk who sold you the book say 6
.quires at so and so, per quire ? There
are, frauds and frauds all over and
through the land, and you must keep
your eye open or be sold out.

during the months of June, July and
August, cut off the cotton crop, &C
cording to the estimates of our best
farmers, from one third to one half.
This means q continuance of hard
times for at least another year to
them. Many of them are in debt
and hoped to pull through with this
crop. They worked hard and lived
close and did all they could to raise
their supplies. Now what is to be
done? We would say to creditor and
deotor-do all you can to aid each
other. Let debtors strain every
point and pay every cent possible.
Let creditors be as lenient and &C.
commodating as possible, and let both
resolve that they will join hands and
hearts and remove one of the great
troubles by demanding that the vol.
ume of currency shall be extended
until the producer can get something
like a just equivalent in price for his
labor and its products.

overcrowded ranks of the toilers in
city occupations.
We want the Agricultural Colleges
devoted to agriculture pure and sim
pie. We want the farmers sons
taught to love the farm, to rejoice in
farm work and farm life. We want
them to stand high above all these
paltry professional dudes, who are
dependent upon their wits for their
miserable pittance to sustain life, and
who know only enough to sheer upon
their betters. In fact, we want the
Agricultural Colleges to bedevoted to
agriculture. We wish to see the col
lege farms models of all that is desir-
able and beautiful in country life, and
eminent for their productiveness and
pecuniary success.
We are sure this cannot be when
the greater amount of the money re-
is devoted to support professors
who have nothing to do with agricul-
culture, who perform the old round of
in the teaching of dead Ian
.guages~a and living non-entities. These
things are all right in their proper
but the money of an Agricul-
ltural College should not be squandered
on them. That money belongs to the
advancement of agriculture and it
should be devoted to that with a.
singleness of purpose.
The field of agriculture is large
enough to occupy all the work which
the largest appropriation of the State
or United States will warrant. It is
a wrong to allow the appropriation to
be diverted from this ooject. Let US
resolve that it shall not be misap-
p~lied.-Marylamd Farmer.

THE QUESTION WILL BE SET.
TIED AT ST. LOUIS.

TT is expected that the Presidents of
L. the various State Alliances will
meet in St. Louis on the End prox. to
consider the important matter of a
permanent covering for u cotton in
the future and the matter of a def
mite and fixed tare on the same. 1t
is expected that the various Cotton
Exchanges will also have representa-
tives present. Whether they come
or not, definite action will be had.
In the call for this meeting the Sub
ordinate Alliances were requested to
advise their State President of their
purpose to adhere to cotton bagging,
or at least of their determined pur-
pose not to use jute, hereafter, so he
can act authoritatively. We take it
that our worthy President would feel
fully warranted to act under the ex-
presslons already given by the Al.
lance in North Carolina, but Eshould
any of the Alliances desire to COM
municate their views, Brother Carr
would be glad to have them. Any
communications on the subject ad
dressed to this Office will be given to
him,

WHAT .

THE farmers of New England
u have been told for years, that, the
prosperity of the agricultural inter
ests of those States could only be- Sc
cured by building up and fostering
the manufacturing interests And,
f~armerlike, they believed it, and for
years and years those farmers voted
an exorbitant tarf on themselves and
their brother farmers throughout the
country, to keep their manufactures
in a prosperous condition. Have. the
benefits been mutual and r~eciprocal2
Eight hundred and fifty one deserted
farms in New Hampshire and hun
dreds in the State Of Vermont, must
give the silent but eloquent answer.
