WHERE WILL IT STOP?

Forty years ago. says the Atlanta
Constitution, according to :official
statistics, our farmers owned over
10 per cent OF the wealth of the coun>
try.
thirty years ago they owned about
90 per cent.
Even this proportion dwindled to
50 per cent ten years ago, and the
farmers now own less than % per
cent of the country's wealth.
Where will it stop? The farmers
are now taxed to death by the gov
eminent, and they have very little
left to use. But they may take a
notion to hold on TO that little and
make the most of it. If the instinct
of self preservation drives them into
determined fight for reform they will
have the sympathy of mankind in the
world at large on the side.

THE RIGHT KIND.

Mrs. Daniel aud her daughter, liv>
near. Milledgeville. Ga, are agricult~
ural heroines Of high type. They
were living together three years ago
in slmost destitute circumstances. A
gentleman inspired with the spirit of
the good Samaritan, offered them aid
in the rental of several acres of land
on fairly easy terms-that they would
pay the rent at the end of the year
trusting to their honesty in the fulfill
ment OF the contract, they having
nothing to put up as collateral.
The old lady and her daughter
made covenant with ,each other to
the effect that one would manage the
domestic and business affairs, while
the other would raise the crop. Miss
Daniel, to whom the task of manag-
ing the farm fell, took an axe and
went into the woods and made pillow
stock from sassafras tree, broke a
little bull that was thrown in with
the land, planted and raised the best
ten acres of cotton and corn that was
raised in Baldwin county.
They paid their rent promptly the
first year and set their stakes high fol
the next. Last year they paid for
the land and made cotton and oolu
enough to make them more than hap.
ply. They have already begun work
for the present year, and if fortune
doesn't change, it will not be lorg be-
fore Mrs. Daniel and her daughter
will be the richest planters in Bald
win county.
Their history ought to he written il
l serial form and scattered broa IDEAS
throughout the territory of the far
mers' alliance.

THE SCHOOL TAX.

There are nov number of coun-
ties in the state that get more money
from the state tor public schools than
their total taxes. The school fund
now is S630,000. If the bill is pass
ed to increase it to 81, 100000, there
will be fully fifty or more counties
that will come under this list OF bene''
fciaries. The more wealthy coun-
ties, in which there are large towns
and cities, will not only have to edu>
cate their own children, but will
have to provide the funds tor oyer
one third of the others counties. When
il is considered that the negroes OF
the state get about one-halt of the
school fund, though the whites pay
thirty-six times as much as they do,
and then when this other fact is furth-
err considered that the city counties
pay for very many of the country
counties, it does look as if the bur.
dens OF taxation 'are not equal. The
agony is piled up a little high
when it is also remembered that the
negroes are dissatisfied and tull OF
complaints that they do not get their
rights; and these poorer counties,
who are not able to share the bur-
dens, have twice as many kickers in
the legislature as have the counties
that foot their bills.-W aynesboro
