Wilson bill. venture ts' solicit your
support of my cans!idacy for the Scn-

there is letter understanding of the
subject the sugar planters themselves
will perceive the injustice Ut their atti-

with the earnest effects made by The
entire delegation, myself among the
number. to secure the aluptloh OF an
amendment to the Wilson bill carry

these efforts principally because Of the

I'M voting against \ bill which, was APP

The action OF the Senate Committee
shows that my idea OF the bill would

1t will be seen that, while cotton
Is So cents per pound cheaper
than last year, other goods are much
lower. 1t may be noted, too, that
The majority OF this crop of cotton
has been disposed Of at better prices
Than now prevail. The above
figures show marked reductions for
some articles, as. for instance, l-8
cents lier pound on bacon; 800 per
barrel or mess pork. and nails SO
cents per key. Mules and horses,
dry goods, hoots and shoes, hats and
furniture are all reported lower than
ever. Planters seem TO have at last
realized that to be secccssful they
must raise their own meat and bread
at home. There lave been more
hogs raised in the South this past
year than at any time since the war.
and the effect il manifest in The de-
cline ia values. There is more de.
mand for grain than there should lie,
but it was not altogether the fault
of the farmers. who planted last
year snfticiency 10 do them any
Ordinary year. but the excessive
drouth that prevailed injured the
crop fully so per cent in this
vicinity.
y" sum up the situation, this sec.
iion has little to complain If. az
everything is low. and many articles
cheaper than e-er known. The new
planting season starts with low.
priced goods. and il Is encouraging
to believe that the worst is over,
and that prosperity il bound to fol.
low sucl,a condition. Considering
the low price Of wheat. and reaiiz.
ing what straits Western farmers
are in who depend on wheat, there
is no reason why the Southern peo-
pie should not cease complaints and

la,ing themselves upon being in bet,
ter shape than the people of otl,e,
sections. Aud with a good start
already made toward a new crop.
and a climate ,'i,sar, assed. with the
proper effort put forth, this section
cannot fail to lie prosperous. Raise
plenty of meat and bread, and the
farmers can then Withstand low
prices for cotton.-AppeaI-Ava-
