The effort to reorganize the old

1t is said to be a sequel to the ef-
fort to organize the cotton grow
ers, which was resorted to a short
while ago, as a new and probably
more captivating plan, but which
also fell flat. 1t is very signifi-
cant fact that these plans believed,
as they are bv many to be politi-
cal schemes, have fallen flat. 1t
looks like the loadstone has lost
its magnetic power, and the name
which erstwhile claimed the mul-
titudes is but sounding brass and
tinkling cymbols. This seems to
be a political emancipation which
calls for the long metre doxology.
