STHERE NOT A
BRIGHTER SIDE?"
A Question Pointedly Asked.
WORTH READING,
(Southeru Cultivator.) }


grumhling, complaining and fault.
finding has somehow grown upon the
people of the South of late, and IT
has been cultivated and strengthen.
ed by the castom Of public speakers
and MANY writer's appealing to popu-
lar sympathy by raising and urging
the cry of hard times. Now, we are
not going to rid ourselves of the
gloomy feelings thus engendered
without considerable effort.
If man thinks he is sick it is
frequently more difficult to cure him
than if be really is sick. We rather
think this cry of hard times is very
much exaggerated and largely WITH
out good foundation. If twenty
nen should meet we'll man con.
secutlvely, and each tell him that he
looks very badly and must be sick,
the chances are that he will go hone
and 60 to bed, thinking himself quite
sick. This cry of hard times acts in
much the same way. If every man
We meet during the day tells US the
times are very hard, we 60 home
and tell our families that hard times
are here and worse are coming; we
must begin to prepare for the wolf.
Ii does not help the case to say it
ought not to be so spent, and that
people should not move from the
country to town. That is altogether
another question. The question now
before us is not how the money is
| spent but Is it here and is it being
spent? 1t is said that nearly a mil.
lion dollars has recently LETT our
southern cities to pay losses on cot
ton futures. Millions are going for
life insurance all the time.
SO tDen We see that the cry of hard
times Is more apparent than rea..
Money Is scarce because of the
misuse of money and the loss of con-
ide0ce which results in unnecessary
hGardlng.
We have just passed year of
good crops of alI kinds. Food of
! nearly every kinN Is fairIv plentiful
and cheap enough. Our moaey crop,
cotton, Is superabundant. Then IT
would seem wise to b.. cheerful apd
| look for hetter days. But how shall
We pay our debit? First of all by
not making them. Very few Of them
| were made as a matter Of necessity
The farmer who raised bis own pro-
| visions and owes NOBODY and has 6
| few bales of cotton on baud is inf
nitely better OFT than the one who
went largely IN debt to buy mules
and provisions and pay hands CT
time TO cultivate worn land, and
made handred bales that cost him
more to make than he can get for it
Not only does the constant pre-
santati0n of this phase Of the case
tend to produce depression on every
one, but the disease Is actually
| c,tchlnp. Each begiGs to reason
thus within himself: If times are
hard | must look out for No. /. AnG
# ne has a little money or some pro
duce to spare be saws will lust hole

ORGANIZED LABOR.

Whitelaw Reid would never have been
nominated vice president on the republi-
can ticket but for the union printers of the
country, or at least but for the action,
through its committee, of one of the best
known typographical unions in the coun-
try, the "Big Six" of New York City.
William Brennan, late president of
the typographical union of New York, is
now foreman of the New York Tribune
Office. The differences between the union
and Mr.. Reid have been amicably adjusted
and the Tribune Office is now union Of
flee. 1t always had been during the days
of Horace Greeley and never had any
trouble with the union until Mr.. Reid be-
came the principal stockholder and editor.
Reid held Of late years that the Tribune
was linotype Office Ctype-setting ma
chine) while the typographical organiza-
tion was one of composition; that the trade
was absolutely different and a knowledge
of composition is not necessary; and that
he was paying the highest wages and
would gladly cooperate with the union in
maintaining or even advancing them.
The International Typographical union,
composed of union printers from all over
the United States and British Amer
lea, which is in session this
week in Philadelphia, received a telegram
from J. R. O'Donnel, of New York, stating
that the settlement with the New York
Tribune is complete and the Office union
lied, and it was entirely local matter,
with which the international union could
not legally interfere. O'Donnen concluded
that the settlement will make it almost i'm
possible hereafter for leading party news
paper to run a non-union force, and said
''Let No. 6 alone"
Some years ago the Indianapolis Journal
(John G. News paper) was a non-union
paper, but it concluded to try organized
labor, and has not regretted it. The Louis
vile Courier-Journal, Henry Watterson's
newspaper, and one of the leading demo-
cratic organs of the country, is a ''rat"
newspaper, and was always bitterly op-
posed to the Typographical union. There
are about 10000 union printers in the coun-
try and all of them are voters.

CHEAPENING LABOR. .

Congressman Turner, of Georgia. re-
Gently announced in the house the desire
of the South not merely to cheaper North
ern white labor, but declared that the free
cotton ties and cotton bagging bill would
enable the states of Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi, Texas and South Caro-
lima to 'employ their conVicts better than
they are now employed, and dedicate their
labor to the manufacture of those things so
necessary to the chief industry of the citi-
zens Of those states" If there are demo-
Gratis who do not believe the young demo-
cratic congressman from the empire state
Of the South did make the statement.
let them consult the Congressional Record
of May IA, page 4727.
Evidently Hr. Turner knows what he
and his constituents want. They desire
free foreign machinery and materials, so
that they can put their convicts into inn
mediate competition with free white
workingmen in Northern factories and
cheaper their output to the penitentiary
level. Then they will make a greater profit
than the present one of 300 per cent. on
their cotton ties or bagging, and it is possi-
bic that then they will cease to wall over
their poverty and the hardship of paying
decent prices that white workingmen may
receive decent wages. But there is no GER
tainty that even then their greed for gain
at the expense of Northern labor would be
satisfied

The Pacific Journal, of Ilwaco, is now
publishing daily beach edition because
there are ten towns on the beach from II
waco to Oystervills whose combined pop
ulation during the months of July and
August is over 10000. In a year or two
summer resort towns will be springing up
on the beach from Peterson's point to
North Cove, and thousands of people will
be swarming into Ocosta, the terminus of
the N. P. road. There is a busy scene now
at Ocosta and the Point.

Whole number 871

1t is recommended that the republican
county central committees call the prima-
ries in their respective counties for Satur-
day the twenty-third (23d) day of July,
and the county conventions for Saturday
the thirtieth (30th) day of July, 1892, un-
less in their judgment they deem it best to
name earlier dates.
tits also recommended that each county
convention elect alternates as well as dele
gates, so that their representation in the
state convention shall be by duly elected
delegates or either alternates only. In case
delegate and his alternate are both absent
the delegation to be authorized to cast the
vote.
For the formation of county and precinct
committees we respectfully refer to the
''rules" and ask that they be followed.

THE North Of Ireland will have nothing
to do with home rule. English rule is good
enough for them. They contend that an
Irish parliament would be "certain to be
controlled by men responsible for the
crime and Outrages of the land league, the
dishonesty of the plan of campaign, and
cruelties of bOycotting, many of whom
have shown themselves ready instruments
of clerical dominion" They declare that
all attempts to open parliament will in
evitably result in disorder, violence and
bloOdshed, such as has not been expert
enced in that unhappy country.
