tional union held large meeting
last night. The new officers were in
stalled. Several applications for mem
bership were received. The early clos

good results of early closing. and ex-
pressing a hope that the efforts in that
line may be continued. II was also de-
termined to patronize only such stores
as close at $50 p. m. on all days except
Sat urday. A protest was also made
against the spirit of the gov ernor's mes
sage in so far as it recommended the
contract labor SYSTEM in the peniten-
tiary.

financial condition which the producer
OF an article OF such universal consump-
ton as cotton should enjoy. Unlike
other produce, its cultivation is limited
to certain ATTITUDES, and is incapable of
being Indefinitely extended except in
the purl;eus of these ATTITUDES. Com
petition is therefore confined amongst
Southern farmers themselves. who, be-
cause they are unable to consume all
they raise, are dependentupo foreign
nations to buy their surplus, and if
such surplus more than supplies these
nations wants, the result is, the mar
kets of the world become overstocked
and the whole crop is depressed beyond
its intrinsic value, when it is no longer
a money crop.
THE European spinner prefers
American cotton when he can get il,
and is willing TO pay premium to OBJ
tain it. If, on account of its scarcity
or relative dearness he uses other
growths, he does SO under compulsion.
To US, therefore, it seem that the
farmer has the shaping OF his own des-
TIMES more in his own hands than one
would think he has. 1t behooves him
to become student of the industrial
world, to extend the range Of his vision
beyond the confines OF his own planta-
ton. If he will do this, we do not doubt
that in the future he will become more
and more independent and share in a
greater degree the prosperity OF the
most progressive section of that country
which is to-day the wonder OF the
world"

THE TORIES NEW LEADER.

Mr.. Arthur Balfour IS young man,
a relative OF Premier Salisbury, and
chief secretary for Ireland. This latter
position he has held since 1856, when
the Tories and Liberal-Unionists COM
bined to defeat the government under
Gladstone, who had recently adopted
the home-rule policy for Ireland. Bal
four displayed a good deal Of courage
and some ability as speaker while
executing and defending the Radical
coercion policy OF the government to-
wards Ireland. He was absolutely
merciless, and filled the prisons Of Ire
land with the victims of cruel and
heartless policy, arrcsting and impris-
oning about thirty Irish members Of
parliament for speaking in public.
Early in his administration OF the CO.
ercion law, he acquired the soubriquet
OF Bloody Balfour," by which he will
be long known in ireland.

And to-day people care nothing tor the
"secret work" Of the Alliance as a
purely industrial and social order, but
when the Alliance goes into politics its
"secret work" becomes offensive. This
republic is governed by political par

The people of Louisiana need money to

and their state debt is very heavy.
With the money paid by the lottery
company the state debt may be paid
and much good work done on the

should not allow pecuniary influences

THE question upon which the next
political contest in Louisiana is to be
waged is that OF lottery or anti-lottery.
1t would appear strange that a great
number of people should approve an
enterprise that is admitted to be iuju-
rious and opposed to good morals.
There is, however, great deal to be
said in favor of the lottery side of the
question. The lottery company will
pay the state s1,250,o00 year for
twenty-five years, or 81, $3.50, 900 for the
