HE DESERVED NO BETTER.


A Farmer Relates How He Was Done Up
by Pinhooker.
A man came to this office yesterday
with a tale of woe.
He first wanted to know if it cost any
thing to publish fellow whom he claimed
had played him mean, and then he un-
burdened himself.
He said he was farmer-a horny
handed observation-disclosures of that un-
fortunate and much putupon class of
individuals for whom men of all condi
tions and professions profess a maudlln
sympathy, and yet who never fail to take
! advantage Of on any and every occasion
where an advantage is in sight. He was
one Of the class who put in whole year
on one expectation-an expectation
which an early frost or a freshet or a
long dry spell or an unreasonable cred
itor often dashed from him at the last
moment.
And his present grievance
Well, he had started TO Durham with
a load of tobacco. \ pinhooker had met
him mile from town and offered him a
bigger price for the lot than he, the pin
hooker, assured him, he could get at any
Of the warehouses.
! He believed he had made big sale.
He came into town with light heart and
his neighbors were envious Of his good
! fortune
But on turning over the weed 10 the
enterprising buyer the check which
usually accompanies such transactions
failed TO be forthcoming.
And the farmer, the fellow who had
put in his time and labor and money 10
produce it and had driven fifteen miles
through the rain and mud to get 1t TO
market TO be ready for Christmas and the
merchant and the farm hand and the
mortgage which must be paid

that all the men who practice this kind
of speculation are Williams or robbers. 1t
does not pretend to say but what some
very good men are in the habit of resort
ing to just such methods and that they
consider all things fair in business as
we'll as in love and war.
But we do say that the pinhOoker and
his general practices are out of the lines
of legitimate business and that he should
be speedily and effectually squelched.
If a mai cannot bid in open and fair
competition with other buyers on the reg
ular market, he should not be allowed to
buy tobacco, and If farmers are such
chumps as to be taken in by them, they
deserve TO be robbed.
The warehouses are the only places
where mutual protection TO seller and
buyer can be safely looked for, and until
farmers recognize this fact they willie
tinue to be taken in by just such fellows.
viii they never learn anything:
