all who woro onco members, and T.
would of itsolf show why trusts worc

| said it looked like tho old saying that
farmers wont stick togothor was true
that II tho farmers wore united as thoy
wore te" years ago, when !hoy made
Ililman Governor and sent him to tho
Unltod States Senate, they could do any
thing they wanted to. Io said ho had
no disposition to injuro tho merchant or
any other class; all hc wanted was to got
what ho earned and what he made. He
wanted tho farmers to purchase guano
on cotton option-givo 300 or 325
pounds Of lint cotton for ton of fcrtili-
zor. If all tho farmers in tho South
would do this they could, by having tho
guano companies hold tho amount of
cotton to pay for thoir guano, holp tho
farmers to advance its price. Some were
afraid to talto cotton options, for this
last year tho price of cotton would cause
tho guanO to cost about throo or four
dollars moro por ton than it would cost
| If paid for in money. IIo said ho was
willing for this, because as the merchant
got moro for his fcrtlizcr, no would got
moro for tho rcst of his cotton. If the
pricc went down tho mcrchan. would
got less, so that both made or, lost
together, as tho case might bo, and that
to take tho average price of cotton for
ton years would work no disadvantage
to tho farmer or tho merchant to adopt
the cotton option in buying fertilizers.
lIc was asked by Mr.. Aldrich: "What
would the mountainccrs, who could
raise no cotton, do to get their guano?'
lIo replied that "thcy could give so
much corn for so much cotton, and if
that could not be done handy, they could
work at night in some of their hollows
and covcs and mako whiskcy, and get tho
money to buy it. lie had ncvor seen
that fail to sell yct.' (Applausc.)
Mr.. x. l.. Aldrich was tho last speaker.
| He stated that nc saw in the papers that
tho Wando Phosphate Co., o. Charleston,
was the only company in this State that
had not been absorbed by tho trust, and
that he thought tho farmers should
patronizc this company, mako terms and
prices with it, irrespective of tho trust
prices; that by such action the trust
could be overcome.
