Advice to the Farmer.

If there ever was a year in which
| the farmer should raise his home
supplies, it will be the one coming.
The meat you eat, the coffee you
drink, the sugar you use, the clothes
you buy, commodities of home OF
farm which you purchase, will all be
swollen UNNECESSARILY, so that the
man who is forced into their pur-
chase will be hopelessly bankrupt.
Therefore, the first question TO con-
slider Is the raising of such home
supplies as will render the farmer
independent of the agent of the
trust. Do not be deluded by ten. cent
cotton or even twentv-cent cotton,
ifsuch a thing should come, to be-
come the toy of the man abroad.
Stir up and discover your own re-
sources, raise your own meat, plant
your own wheat and corn, live at
home.
In this way, if Southern farmers
should raise a surplus, they would
find ready sale for it at home. If
they should only meet the home req
uirements, then their cotton would
be surplus and they would be that
much money ahead. There is no
use of looking to outside influence
for help. The tax collector will not
abate his exactions. The trust has a
deficit to make up on all lines and
will bleed the country for what it is
worth. The grand raid is on and
the only thing for wise men to do is
TO be prepared for it.
"A full smokehouse, a bullying
corn crib, no debt in town, cotton as
a surplus-this will put the farmer
where he can fight his battle to the
best advantage.
Will the farmer be wise?
We sincerely hope so.-Atlanta
Constitution.

CORRESPONDENCE.

The farmers in the community OF
Blacks Academy are in high spirits
this season. A nice fall for gather
ing the cotton aud housing the corn
crops has favored them, and in al
dition to that a very fair price for
their cotton naturally wears away
the melancholy appearance from
their faces. A good acreage OF
wheat has been sown in this locality.
Some is up, splendid stand, and
looking very well.
We are on the high road to pros
perity-new fields are being prepar-
eel for tillage, a net work of tele,
phone wires puts us IN touch with
the outside world, new public roads
are being opened for the benefit of
the travelling public, and, above all,
beautiful public school house,
complete in every particular, with
a fountain head of pure well water
near by, graces one of our beautiful
hill tops. There, under the care
and protection of the accomplished
Miss Mary Franklin, thirty and up

The Memphis Herald says: ''Did
you ever see a leader willingly give
up the lead as long as he could hold
to it? We are not surprised at SO
many prominent members of the
party objecting to a reorganization.
Some of them might be left out
when it is done. Some leaders
think it is better for the party TO
get left than for some leaders. But
the party will be very apt to have
a say-so next time and it will say
new leaders. Add new leaders, and
give us new strength, new vitality,
and then we may be able to win.
We can go into the fight with better
spirit at any rate"

THE Bristol Courier says: ''The
old time Democracy that stands for
a fair field and no favors has been
crucified on a cross of free silver and
chOked by trying to swallow its own
glorious record on expansion.
We believe with the campaigners of
other days that theDemocratic party
will never die, and you cannot kill
it. Just as it survived that Horace
Greeley dose of corrosive sublimate,
it will emerge from the meshes
of Organism, chastened, purified
and strengthened, commanding the
support of the masses because of its
good sense, conservatism and patriot
ism. Away with the bread pill
quakery. An ounce of common
sense, good apothecary."

In the news columns of the Com.
mercial Appeal of Wednesday, ap.
pears an article regarding election
Irregularities in Hardeman County,
which have been brought to the at
tention of the federal authorities.
The article in question states that
at certain precinct in this county,
the officer conducting the election
began to drink, having drinks and
bottles of beer brought to the room
where the election was being held.
By noon it is claimed that all were
drunk, adjourned to a nearby
woods, taking the ballot box with
them. Upon their return, at an
early hour in the afternoon, it is
charged that they closed the polls,
thus DISTINGUISHING citizens who
had not voted. The Commercial
Appeal evidently has the name of
Hardeman COMPOUNDED with that of
some other county. No such irreg-
ularities occurred in this county.
Our people do not transact business
in any such manner, and we doubt
not that the Commercial Appeal

Wearied with the labors of the

planning to his wondering visitors
the causes that had contributed to
the overthrow of the party and its
candidates at the polls two or three
days before, the member Of the nat

the train on which he was travelling
homeward.
There came terrific Jar.
The train had run into an

The shock threw the committee

Salt River" on election day, and it
is interesting to inquire into the
origin of the phrase. Salt River was
a little stream in Kentucky tributary
to the Ohio, which was very dan
gerous and so crooked that rowing
up in a keel boat was about the
hardest work a man could do. 1t
was customary to punish the negro
by making him take passengers up
the river in a keel boat, his master
hiring him out for purpose. To go
