VAN WICK ITEMS.

Some OF eur farmers are looking
favorohly upon John Z Roddey's $
plan for organizing n cotton union.
Something must be done for the
controlling Of this great Southern
staple, or It's growers will be
ground down into abject poverty
by the money kings. O'hcr In.
tercsts are controlled to Il large
extent by unions 0r associations,
and why cant the cotton growers
form n union and work together
so rs to put their cotton on Il re-
munerative basis. We expect to
watch this movement with interest
and hope to see it succeed.
Our people are still moving on
in the line of progress. The con-
tractor on Mr. j \ Hyatt's dwell
ling is pushing his work and will
have the contract completed by
christmas. Others are making
improvements on their premises
and the sound of the hammer and
saw proclaim our village is yet
! unfinished.
