THE FARM CO,Jp,IkESS.

One Rcmbcrt, of Texas, has invented Il
roller attachment to compress or bat the
lint cotton as it comes from the gin, and
prepare it to fall in the press box in order
ly layers. When this is done the power of
an ordinary press is sufficient to make the
bale as small as the tremendous pressure of
the gigantic compress can make them. n
little reflection will show many ways in
which this will be Il great saving 10 tho far
crs by this invention five hundred
pound bale is reduced to half the ordinary
size The machine has been on exhibition
at the Atlanta Exposition and has attracted
much attention.

The results Of yesterdays election prove
some things very clearly.
1t is evident that the united Democracy
can elect its national ticket next year il it
will do two things:
l. Nominate men who command the
confidence and respect of the country.
g. Make the tariff the main ISSUE
With good ticket and n sound platform
the heart and center Of which shall be q
low tariff plank we cannot only carry New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Indi
ana, which have hitherto been sufficient tt
insure Democratic victory, but VIC can
hold massachusetts, Rhode Island. and 10
wa, and make Illinois, Michigan and Wis
consin very doubtful. If Democrats talk
heed of ycstc rday's election they will wit
a great victory next year; if they shut ,hci
eyes to this they will have to endure dcfea
as tho penalty Of objectionable stupidity. -

The scramble for the position of assist
ant United States district attorney has come
to an end and, as frequently happens, a
dark horse won. The appointment of Mr.
Benjamin a. Hagood to that responsible
position was made public yesterday, and it
is one which will give general satisfaction,
not only to Mr.. IIngoods friends. but to
the legal fraternity throughout the cntic
State.
Almost every county had an applicant
whose claims were pressed vigorously, but
MIR. Hagood was selected on account of his
known ability and fitness and for the good
service he has alrrad v performed while
connected with the United States district
attorneys office. He is son OF Col. j. l..
liagood, clerk to the United States Circuit
Court, and well known throughout the
State. Mr.. llagood is n graduate of the
University of South Carolina, and though
still quite young man will reflect credit
upon his new position and himself alike

RAILIsOAD PnO1uIHITION.

We noticed an article a few days ago
calling attention to the powerful agcr-
ey of the railroad corporations in promot-
ing the cause of temperance. A moments
reflection will convince any one of this
wholesome fact. 1t is standing and IN.
flexible rule of $40 companies out of 600
that any railroad official from conductor 10
fiagman who tampcrs with whisky, does SO
at the peril of losing his position. This
rule applies as well to all depot agents en-
ployees and Telegraph operators. 1t is a
matter of business with the railroads. They
cannot trust their property and the lives of
their passengers TO any one who allows al
cbohol to benumb his senses. They re-
move the tipler as promty and with as
good reason as they discard the decayina
crosslie. No quality Of bark or kind OF
wood can save the one its place, neither
can any money bond or quality of hear,
save the other his position. .

Literary Note.

Logic. women and love are three forces
hard to connect. But, connecting the three
as closely rs they seem capable of bel. ~
joined. it is logical to Judge that women
are best fitted to write fiction which is
purely romantic. At any rate, Mrs Anne.
lia T.. Barr, who Is, perhaps, the most pop.
uar American author Of today, leads one
to this belief. She has written IN cxquis-
ltcly romantic and idylic love story, which
She has named Love for an Hour is Love
ForcVcr,' which is soon to appear i'm serial
form IN the columns of metropolitan
weekly. In what weekly it will appear
has not yet been announced. The sto,y
opens in the West Riding of YORKSHIRE,
and the scene shifts later to picturesque
and unfamiliar region of Mexico, and then
TO Texas.

NO TIME BUSINESS NEXT YEAR

The merchants on the east side Of the
river except one who have been doing
time business have informally agreed that
they Will not do a time business next year.
Land owners formerly secured the papers
of their tenants but they now find it cheap
cr to borrow money from the banks, pay
cash for what their tenants get and take
the papers themselves
The merchants have not organized form
combine, or anything Of that sort, but
have just reached an understanding for
their own protcction.-G Grccnvillc News.
We have heard several of the merchants
OF this county say the same thing. There
is not merchant in this county but what
will lose money this year on the class who
have to be furnished supplies under lien OF
mortgage. Suppose the merchants general
~ come to the same conclusion, what is tc
become of the rcntcrr The landlord will
have to supply him or he will become tia,
laoorcr. Then the question is, will iii,
landlord take the risk to furnish him sun
plies upon lien or mortgage like the mcr
chant now docs. We don't think so. Will
it is true that the landlords are able to d
so; they will not take the risk, from tn
fact that to furnish two or three or pcrhar
a half dozen families and take the risk G
some one else having the oldest lien fc
supplies, or run the risk of flcsllct c
drought and many other things would nc
pay. So then if the merchant or landlOr
drops him, the only alternative left is to b,
come day laborcr. These remarks nppl
, only to those who give liens for supplies.

tiary, and wants them abolished, and rec
omends State institution to take their
place. Under the good management of
