Egyptians Getting Pointers.

ATLANTA, GA, August 6.-For two
days Osman Pasha Mayer and j. Pine
ton, representatives of the Egyptian
government, have been here. These
men are commissioners in Chicago from
the government farm of Egypt. and
came South to study Southern methods
of cotton raising. To-day they are in
Oglethorpe county, visiting the great
plantation of Col. Jim Smith, who uses
convicts on his farm. Col. Smith is one
of the most successful planters in the
South, and the Egyptian commissioners
came especially to study his methods,
they having been recommended to do 30

!; There are great many men in This
country who honestly believe that the
price Of American cotton fuotuates or
varies according to the amount Of money
in circulation. These men ridicule the
idea that.supply and demand have any
thing to do with tho price Of cotton. We
acoredit these, our fellow-citizens, with
perfect honesty in the views they enter-
tain on this question. But are thsir views
correctf Is the position assumed by them
on this question terable7 Are they sup
ported by the facts that make up the rec
ord Of the past bearing on this question! !
Are they not basing their arguments rel
atiye, to the price OF cotton on the unsup-
ported declaration Of others who have
not thoroughly investigated the matter,
SO as to ascertain the real truthf To bring
up this matter clearly, let US ask, who
fixes, and where ls the price of cotton
Hxed? Isit done by the cotton mills Of
America? Is done by the cotton spec
ulators Of this country7 Is the price Of
our cotton fixed in New York? Whers
is tho great cotton mart of the world, and
what market controls and sets the price
of the worlds cotton? Now it is known
and accorded fact chat Europe buys the
bulk of American cotton. It is conce-
ded fact that the cotton market of Liver
pool governs the cotton price throughout
the world. This being true, then what
does the amount Of money in circulation
in this country have to do with fixing the
price Of our cotton.
What are the recorded facts bearing
directly on this question? About four
teen years ago there were in circulation
in our government q fraction over fifteen
dollars per capita. Then our cotton sold
for II cents. Now the circulation is a
fraction over twenty three dollars per
capita, and cotton is selling for cents.
In other words the amount Of money in
circulation in this country now is about
60 per cent. greater than it was fourteen
years ago, and the price of cotton is about
40 per cent. lower than 1t was then. These
are facts supported by the records. Do
they argue that the amount of money in
circulation in this country controls the
price of cottonf
We present these facts because there
are many men among us who honestly
believe that the price Of cotton Auctuates
or Is controlled by the contraction or ex-
pansion Of our currency.
The real truth is that the amount Of
cotton produced in America, supplement-
ed with the cotton from India and other
countries, whore it is produced much
cheaper than we can produce 1t, affects
and we may say governs the price of cot
ton. This has been true in the past, is
true now, and will remain true In the fu-
ture, despite the under consumption, and
scarcity of money argument. Therefore,
the whole truth, from which there is no
lodging. is, that if the cotton growers Of
the South would realize profit from their
cotton, they must reduce the crop to the
worlds demands and devote more of
their lands to food products. And if they
continue t. pile up surplus cotton, poy-
erty and bankruptcy will be tho inevita-

Gov. Tillman has let his tongue and bad
temper get ahead Of his judgment again
in his utterance about arming the States
constables, and ordering them to shoot
down citizens and imprudent boys who
attempt to make little sport of such OFF,
GERS. There is a proper way to enforce
all law, and If the Governor will get conn
petent men, who will do their duty in o
prudent way, he will have no trouble, in
enforcing the law, and will be backed by
all law-abiding citizens Of the State. The
trouble caused in Charleston and Sumter
was the result Of having constables who
knew nothing about their duties and had
no respect for the. rights or liberties OF
men charged with the violation Of law.
In Charleston the constables were not
satisfied with arresting the man for whom
they had a warrant, but threatened to
break open the door Of the room in which
the poor, sick wife Of the prisoner was
confined. In Sumter the constables ar
rested the man whom they were after,
and he imme ediately turned oyer TO them
the keys Of his former place Of business,
which they thoroughly > searched and came
out and expressed themselves satisfied.
There was some whiskey in there, which
had not been disposed Of preceding the 1st
OF July, and which was all sealed up ready
to be shipped out Of the State. The key
was returned to the proprietor and he
went home. In short time the consta-
bles decided to enter the place again, and,
without notifying the proprietor, or ask
ing for his key, they broke open his door
and confiscated everything he had In his
store-room. Prudent, competent, sensi-
BILE officers would not have pursued such
q course in either case mentioned above,
and, as consequence, no trouble would
have occurred at either place. No self
respecting citizen can approve Of tyranny
in any form, and if the State authorities
expect to enforce the Dispensary Law they
must do it in a decent, respectful way by
officers who have senss enough to carry
out their instructions in the proper way.

n ted with the great lakes, Of
which it became part. There are
grave constitutional doubts about
the right of the United States
to any more than exercise a supervis-
ion over interstate commerce, and no
law of the kind yet passed has in it's
administration exercised any practic-
al control Of the railways of the
country, or corrected the unjust dis
ordinations which rob the producing
classes Of the south and west of the
fruit of their labors. But there is no
doubt of the constitutional right Of
a state to build a line of railway
within it's own borders; the line be-
ing completed, and provided with
warehouses and depots, let the line
be thrown open at a fixed rate per ton
per mile to the use Of corporations or
individuals who will furnish the To-
comOtives and means of transporta-
tion. Such competition, incapable of
monopoly, will inevitably reduce
rates of freight and passage to
the least possible cost and afford
any profit. Only those states whose
citizens believe such route of trans
p0rtatiOn would be a benefit, would
construct such road.

OUR FORUM.

1t is part of the purpose of estab-
lishing the REPRESENTATIVE to af-
ford forum, in which the brightest
minds in the populist party and in
the farmers alliance can express and
compare their views. The paper will
not be responsible for the opinions
set forth, but will try to give all
sides of the questions at issue fair
hearing. We would suggest to our
correspondents to make their letters
brief and to the point; not to ex-
coed One-quarter Of column, if pos
sible. If you have lengthy commun-
ication cut it in half and make two
letters of it. Avoid personalities.
Don't write unless you have some
thing to say; and let each letter
have a motive and teach something
to the reader. Try to make your
readers better and wiser by what
you write. Never mind about the
grammar or the spelling. The prin--
ter will fix all that. Good sense and
an honest purpose are rarer things
than book learning.-THE EDITOR.J

Words of Approval from one of

STERLING CENTER, Nov. IA, '93.
Mr.. EDITOR:
I was much gratified by Mr.. Don
nelly's comment Oh John Diamonds
letter, because [ think it breathes
the spirit that should animate every
friend of reform. / respect Mr..
Diamond for what he has done in
the past, and hope to cooperate with
him again in the good work, but we
must be more charitable to one an
other. ! have tried to promote har-
mony and good feeling in our ranks
here, because as you say, we need
the help of every friend of humanity.
There could be no better motto for
the peoples movement than the i'm
mortal words of Lincoln: with
malice toward none but charity for
ALL" except the willful or corrupt
traitor. One lesson we all need to
learn is to place principles before all
personal considerations, and until
this is done we do not deserve to
succeed. Selfshness is no better in
a reformer than in a plutocrat, and
that is just what we are combating,
organized seltishness in a hundred
forms whereby a favored few are alb
sorbing the substance of the many.

It Is Not Valuable For Shipping Pur-
poses-Good For Immediate Use.
REDWOOD FALLS, Mimi, Nov. Ga
State Geologist Winchell has examined
specimens of the coal found on the farm
of Alfred Moon and pronounces it cre-
taceous Ignite, the same substance
which is found in North Dakota in such
large quantities. He says this vein ex-
tends for miles, horizontally, varying in
thickness from three to four feet. He
says there is great deal of ash in it
and if exposed to the air for any length
of time will crumble and so it would not
pay to place expensive machinery in the
mine, for they would not be able to ship
the coal long distances if expo ed to the
air. Professor Winchel encourages Mr..
Moon to dig all he can for home con-
sumption, and for that purpose it will
be very valuable to farmers, who can
purchase it much cheaper than coal
brought here from Iowa.

WHEAT RATES
In Southwestern Minnesota. Ar
ImpOrtOnt Letter from
Gen. E. M. Pope.
Let the Argument Proceed and all
the Facts be brOugh out.
EDITOR REPRESENTATIVE:

EDITOR REPRESENTATIVE:
1 have noticed, with interest, that
some of the grain freight payers of
the Red river country have entered
complaint and ask for reduction of
freights from the wheat fields to the
lake. 1 trust they will be able to
show to the satisfaction of the r. r.
& w. H. commission that the rates
now charged are excessive. The sit
uation in that part of the state is so
different from ours that we here have
little knowledge which would apply
to the situation there, and suppose
the matter is in charge of those who
are fully posted. l shall watch the
outcome with keen interest. In our
section the wheat is bought on prices
established by grain buyers or mil
lers' associations and based upon the
Minneapolis market, with freight to
Minneapolis and handling deducted,
although little, if any, is shipped to
Minneapolis. Under these circum-
stances the prices paid have usually
been as much as or more than an in
dividual shipper could realize by ship
ping to market in which prices are
regulated by this Omni-present grain
buyers association. We have thought
the rates to Minneapolis too high and
succeeded in securing a reduction of
lc. to &c. for all stations from Hen
derson to Madelia, and on the Blue
Earth branch from MankatO via Lake
Crystal to Winnebago City; also on
the Milwaukee from MankatO to
Wells and Winnebago. This reduc-
tion was not very large per bushel,
but was material in it's effect. In &C
cepting the rate agreed upon and
withdrawing the complaints then
pending, the alliance committee who
had them in charge land with which
I was, at the request of the alliance,
acting) secured valuable concession
which was of immediate application
and left the way open for further &C
tion on the line they had followed, or
on any other, by anyone whose pri-
vate or public interests should promp
him to something more than talk. l
have noticed that our friend Mr..
John Diamond is not satisfied with
the action of that committee in &C
cepting the reduction, as they did,
land l know he protested against it
at the time); but as l said before the
door was left wide open, and any who
will may enter in. And l am quite
certain that all the committee who
were associated with him in the pri-
or cases would be glad if his very ear
nest convictions would stir him up to
action which would result in fur
Their reduction to a point which is
reasonable. Very resnectfully,
E. M. POPE.
