THE IRON AGE.

This is an iron are-iron slips, iron

To succeed in these days man must
not only have pluck and grit and push,
but he must have the power to stand

against him. His opposition to Obstacles
in his way must be mightier than the
forces that battle against him. There is

History is the record of the persistent

Civil Zation does indeed qualify and

is constantly uGdone by intellect, and
even intellect must bow 10 the finer and

rha Cntton Tie Trust.

The price of cotton ties has been in
creased from 65 cents to Sl.30 a bundle
an advance of 100 per cent. in one
year. In the meantime, there has
been no advance in the price of labor
or of material to justify the enormous
increase in the price of ties. IN dis
cussing the matter the Augusta Chron-
icle very truly says as to the trust or
combination that has increased the
price OF cotton ties 100 per cent, no
language would be too strong to voice
the indignant protest Of the helpless
victims Of what appears to he an In
excusable extortion. In time of un-
exampled depression among Southern
farmers, it does appear to be nothing
short of an outrage to increase the
price of cotton ties from IS cents to
81. 80 a bundle. The increased price
has been carefully kept secret by the
manipulators of the trust until a time
when it is too late for the farmers to
make arrangements to secure ties from
other sources. It is the Republican
party that has fostered trusts and VIC
lous combinations of capital in this
country, TO the detriment of the mass
es, and this new cotton tie trust comes
at a very opportune time to impress
| this fact upon the minds of Southern
farmers. When the farmers OF the
South purchase their cotton ties and
have to pay twice as much for them
as they :lre worth, and when they sell
their cotton and receive for it only
half as much as it is worth, let them
remember that it is the Republican
gold standard that they have tc thank
Tor this outrageous condition of things,
and then let them vote for Bryan and
Sewall and the free coinage OF silver. >

The Hot Weather.

CHICAGO, July 30.-Seyen prostra-
tions from extreme heat occurred here
yesterday. Reports by telegraph from
the principal cities and towns OF the
west and south report unusually hot
weather. st. Louis reports "a prostra-
tions, many OF whom will probably
die. Thi.ty-six horses fell dead IN the
streets and scores Of dogs were driven
mad. The thermometer registered 80.
The suffering is increased by humldl-
ty in the atmosphere. Two deaths
are reported at Louisville, with the
thermometer at SO, breaking the great
hot weather record OF Is years ago.
At Quincy, Ills, it was 100 in the
shade and many are prostrated. None

Tom Watson Speaks.

ATLANTA, July 80. Tom Watson
says in u signed editorial after re-
viewing the st. Louis convention:
1t was this chaotic condition OF
things which | witnessed with keen
anxiety and which caused members
of the Georgia delegation to telegraph
me to allow my name to be used to
restore harmony and save the party.
Up pom that express condition l consent
ed and the OBJECT was attained. Sc
wall was defeated, the Populist fac
tions harmonized and the Democrats
programme chcckmated. This con-
dition of things was not of my seek
ing. If now the Democratic manager
should refuse to make any concession
at all it would show that our efforts
towards unity have all been throw n
away, If they continue to demand
that the Populists shall go out OF eS-
istence as a party they Will prove 10
TO all the world their object IN adopt
ing our platform was notso much TO
gel free silver as it was to bury the
PopuEst party. There are mutterlngs
of alsconLent all along the line, and
If Mr.. Sewall declines to retire Tor
harmon sake the rank and hle OF oul
party may break way from the leaders
and refuse to vote tor Mr.. Bryan al
all.
Therefore my opinion l. that we
had better go slow until the atmos

The Earliest on Record.

The Columbia State says The cot
ton crop is an unusually early one as
shown by the shipment Of five new
bales of cotton from Richland county
a few days ago. Comparison with
1894 shows this crop to be eighteen
days IN advance, for that year the first
bale was marketed on August 18th !;
in 1895 the first bale was marketed on
August goth. It Is significant that
while in the previous two years but
one bale was marketed, this year five
bales came from the same locality,
and that locality not usually the one
where picking first begins. First
blooms and open balls were reported
from the lower portion of the State
this year, SO it is safe to infer that
picking will soon become general IN
portions of the State. ln few sec
lions reports indicate the plant has
stopped growing, but that does not
necessarily mean q short crop. The
season has exhibited cotton weather
since planting time, and cotton has
developed quickly and made excellent
growth and fruited heavily, so that
this early maturity is likely to make
it possible for every boil that puts
on" to come to open and be gathered
before frost comes. Should cotton
bring remunerative price farmers
will be more prosperous this year than
for many years past, and will have
little reason to care whether free
silver" or sound moaey" WINS in No

Murdered His Family.

AUSTIN, Tex, July 30.-W. (.
Burt, 3 member OF one OF the best fam
lilies of the city, murdered his wife and
two children, aged 2 and 4years, late
Friday night, and placed the dead
bodies in a cistern. The crime was
discovered this morning. Burt's resi-
dence adjoined the business portion
OF the city, and q foul stencil ledto an
investigation. He left the city Sat
urday night after committing the ter
ribis deed, and warned several OF the
neighbors not to drink the water, as It
was polluted by : dead cat. The wife
was asleep. He bound her in blan-
ket, and dropped her struggling body
into the cistern. Both children had
their brains knocked out. A reward
of $500 has been offered for Barts ap-
prehensiOn.

Our Desp crate Finances

The New York banks, which are IN

that they will come TO the relief OF The
Treasury and by contributions of gold
from their private stocks maintain the
gold reserve atits safety mark Of $780,.
OOO, 900. This is very oo!iglng on the
part of the banks, which, OF course, Dv
their action Of voluntarily coming TO
the Administration assistance are
opening an account for value expected.
AS is clearly pointed out by the New

that ouixotism of the Administration

Ths StrenEth or Silver.

Those people who imagine that the
cause of silver has no following in
the North and East are not posted on
the trend of current history, but take
their views from those who are bound
ed by narrow environments, and do
not respect the reports from the field at
large. The following conversation
between Senator Smith, of New Jer-
sey, and New York newspaper man
shows the strength of silver sentiment
in New Jersey:
rs there any silver sentiment in
New Jersey"
Yes; much more than IS generally
supposed. The agricultural element
of each party IS affected to consider
aole degree by the enthusiasm of the
Western farmers for this idea. It will
be no easy task to over come this en-
thusiasm wherever there is 8 large
agricultural element.
Then you do not foresee a walk
over for Mcklnleyl"
''On the contrary, I am convinced
that if the election was to be held next
week Bryan would win. People here
in the East do not appreciate the hold
the free silver idea has taken upon the
masses OF the entire West and South.
They believe they are right in princi-
pie, and they will be impressed more
and more as The campaign progresses
by the personality OF their candidate" "
What Senator Smith says of New
Jersey, Others are saying in other
StateLs OF III" East and North, and des-
plte the ridlcuIe and abuse heaped on
the Chicago platform and Democratic
nominees oy the papers OF New York,
II IS by no mems any imposslblllty
that New York's electoral votes will
60 to Bryan III November. If you
are disposed to doubt this, read what
the Democratic County Chairmen OF
the State OF New York say about the
outlook in their respective counties

all producers, and whereas suitable
wire can be had at 3 cost OF II cents
per bale against % cents 9 bale for ties,
thus ehecung saving of 16 cents per

saving to this State alone of SIPS, 600

Resolved, That we ask all Alliance.
men and farmers Interested in the bal
