CORN AND HOGS Now BRING THE
MoNEY.-In diversified farming there
i; always something that is abundant
in this section and commands a good
price which goes far to make up for the
loss by short crops and low prices in
other products. Last year with us it
was the apple crop. This year it is 60
ing to be corn and hogs. The corn crop
is fairly good one and corn is worth
So cents at Lexington. Hogs are worth
here from to 5! cents gross F; from 81
to g. cents net. A well informed stock
man, who has long been engaged 10
the business, states that he does not be-
lieve that there ever were as many hogs
in the county before. Two years ago
there were few hogs. The price ad-
vanced and hence the increase. This
month there have been shipped or
bought to be shipped nearly $1,000
worth of hogs by John p. Welsh alone.
East & Driver at Raphine, have
probably shipped more. For some
years past no hogs have been
shipped in this month. The local mar
kets generally consume all the surplus
hogs Of the farmers. During the winter they
will do so this year. The interest of farmers
in hog feeding is shown by the fact that some
of them arc arranging TO feed pigs for ship
ment TO the juno market. This is very un-
usual Some of our farmers have followed
the example set in the West and fed wheat
largely to hogs.-Rock5ridge Neirs.

Wilson in West Virginia.

CHARLEsTowN, w. Va, Oct. S.-Con'
gresham W. L. Wilson opened his cam
paign here to-day amid much enthusi
asm. At Harper's Ferry, 10 miles from
this city, a delegation of leading demo
Gratis, headed by Col. Anderson, chair
man of the Jefferson county democratic
committee, met the distinguished tariff
reformer and welcomed him to his ma
tive State of West Virginia and to the
district he has so long and so ably rep
resented. Arriving here, he was met
by an enthusiastic crowd of democrats
who cheered him to the echo. Preced-
ed by the local band procession was
formed and marched to the Assembly
hall. Mr.. Wilson said in part:
81 do not for one moment sink the
demonstration into mere personal
welcome to me as your countryman, or
even as candidate for public office. 1t
shows your unhagging interest in a
great cause, and your sturdy pur-
pose to be contented with no half
or partial victory for that cause.
The battle for tariff reform and indus
trial freedom has been wonderful and
inspiring contest. Its earnest view its
enthusiasm, its patriotic and almost
heroic ardor, its persistence. all make
it one of the popular uprisings of his
tory. In view of all this we cam. t
believe that the results already accom- :
plished, the ground already won, is all
that is to come from this grand effort
of the people. They are but the prom.
Use and guaranty of final and lasting
success measuring up to the magnitude
and earnestness ola popular movement.
The issue of to-day la between those
who wish to hold on to what we have
gained and to push onward to complete
victory, and those who wish to undo
what we have gained and to return to
the system which the people have
essayed to overthrow. In the one di-
rection lie good government, just taxa
ton, rest from agitation and discomfort,
with unlimited expansion of all those
great industries through which labor
finds employment and the masses of
people achieve plenty and prosperity.
In the other direction lie corrupt gov
ernment, class taxation, reversed and
perpetual agitation and discomfort,
with an artificial limitation of the
great industries that give employment
and labor and prosperity to the people.
To deprive any citizen of the fruits Of
his own toll by unjust taxation is rob-
berry. To deprive him of the opportu.
nifty to toll for his living is still worse
robbery. We have reached stage in
our development when the great need,
the absolute necessity of the American
farmer and laborer is larger markets
for what he produces. Our capacity
for producing has far outstripped our
own power of consuming. For a sup
ply of farm products or of manufactur-
ed goods there is but one healthy safe
ty.valve, and that is commerce. With
out that safety-valve there is distress
and suffocation.
