He never talked about himself

hear him, and interested people used
to write down some of his verses.

MOVE AGAINST THE TRUSTS

Counsel for Frank H. Thompson, a
citizen of Philadelphia, have filed in
the United States court a bill in equity
against the Philadelphia and Reading
railroad company, the Central railroad
of New Jersey, the Lehigh Valley, the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
railroad and the New York, Ontario
and Western railroad. The bill
charges these railroads with having
formed an illegal combination for the
purpose of fixing price of coal and
controlling the coal market, and asks
the court to declare such combina-
ton illegal and to restrain and prohlb-
it the respondents from meeting TO-
Cether for the purpose Of fixing the
rate at which coal shall be sold
While Mr.. Thompson's determine
tion and motives are to be admired,
and while he will be generally wished
success, il is exceedingly doubtful that
be can obtain it.
There is no question but that justice
and equity are on his side, but he lie
Sighting one of the most powerful mo-
nopolies in existence, and they will il
necessary spend a million dollars t."
defeat his aims. The chances are tel
to one that Mr.. Thompson's bill IN
equity will be gently kicked out OF
court on some tritiing technicality.
Assuredly the time is coming when
the masses will rise in righteous
wrath and with their hands upon the
throats of the trusts crush them COM
pletely from further existence. But
the time isn't yet ripe.

rERRELL.s ENvIABLE POSITION.

The growth of Dawson and Ierrell
county. their comfortable prosperity,
the fact that there is no such thing as
a county tax, and city tax of only
four mills on the dollar-all these
things naturally place the city and
county in an enviable position. Other
counties are wondering, and worthily
endeavoring to emulate.
Terrell does not feel in the slightest
oigoted because of the position she
has attained and is maintaining among
the couaties of the state. While re-
ioicing in her own prosperity and con-
sequent complacent happiness to the
limit, she would gladly see every other
county in the commonwealth enjoying
lust as great degree of good fortune.
IA must not be understood, however,
by those to whom have come tales OF
Terrell's progress that she has reach
ed the zenith in the upward climb and
is retrograding, or even standing stlll'

sees some freshly added evidence that
this is true, and that greater things
are yet to come. Solidly conserya-

widely quoted Interrogation, Don't
Dawson grow?" may be applied as
readily to the pleasing condition of the
county at large, and as time goes on it

HOW THE FARMER is GOUGED.
Paws for Extra Bagging After the Bale
Leaves His Hands.
From the rnlbotton New Era.

From the Talbotton New Fra
Some time ago the New Era and a
large number of other papers publish
ed a communication from the Southern
Cotton Buyers Association telling the
farmers of the south that the maxi
mum amount of bagging and ties al
lowed on any bale of cotton shall be
six yards of bagging and six ties. II
any bale of cotton has more than that
amount charge of fifty certs will be
deducted from such bale.
Mr.. Harvie Jordan, president of the
Southern Cotton Grow ers' AssOcia-
tion, has been investigating the mat
ter, and has found out the following
facts:
The spinners of Europe and else
where pay for only the lint cotton they
buy after deducting weight of the bag
ging and ties. They allow reduction
of thirty pounds for this to each bale
and then pay for the rest as lint cot
ton, In other words, they charge up
thirty pounds of tare to the farmer
and pay him for the rest, and in max
ing up the price of cotton this charge
of thirty pounds to the bale issk uocked
off before price is quoted, which Is
the same thing as making the farmers
pay for the bagging and ties. These
cotton buyers are allowed a reduction
of thirty pounds from each bale, while
they limit the farmer to twenty-five
pounds, making him pay for eight
pounds of bagging and ties that he
does not put on the cotton. But the
cotton buyer must have the thirty
pounds of tare on each bale when it
reaches the spinner, so when the cot
ton is compressed he orders more bag
cling and ties added to each bale, and
it is put on there.
For curiosity the editor Of the New
Era visited cotton compress last week
at Albany, Ca, to see if what Mr.. Jor-
dan said was true, and with our own
eyes we saw them putting on two or
three more pieces of bagging and
three ties to the bale. The swindle
comes on the farmer from the fact that
he is charged up to all this weight
before the price of cotton is quoted to
him, while be should be charged up to
what he actually puts on-22 pounds
or else he should be allowed to put on
full weight bagging, since he is charg-
ed up to it. The large buyers make
thousands of dollars a year by this
swindling. OF course the local buy
ers are not responsible for this fraud,
as they are pOwerless TO prevent 1t.

A Wagon Load of Eggs.
From the Americus Times.

From the Americas Times.
A farmer in Americas yesterday
demonstrated the fact that the yellow
of an egg is all gold. This thrifty egg
dealer brought the hen fruit TO town
in bushel measures and hamper bas-
kets-three hundred dozen of them
and going through the residence por-
tion of town he sold the entire lot at
excellent prices, the wagon load OF
eggs netting him about 500. OF course
he did not get all of them from his
own farm, but they were probably col
lected in the neigh borhOod or at coun-
try stores. Eggs are plentiful at Y
aud -! cents per dozen.

TO AN UNREASONABLE EXTENT.

Those papers which oppose w. D.
BRYAN to the extent of fanaticism are
proceeding to make the very air sui
INJURIOUS with their growls because.
forsooth, the Nebraskan is said to have
accumulated something of comforta-
bile fortune from his labors, and is
said to have an income of 81, 900 week
from his lectures and other work,
This shows how interested ami
pusillanimous is the opposition mani
tested toward him by small part OF
the press. Because the man has by
force of brain power, mental strength
and work and versatility managed to
build up for himself neat income, a
few disgruntled sheets, who despise
his every move ana action, feel called
upon to emit one long, continuous
howl.
This is senseless and babyish in the
extreme. 1t is perfectly safe TO say
that could one of these grumbling
fellows be possessed OF such an income
he would be silent upon the subject in
its entirety. The long celebrated ia
BILE of sour grapes has evidently not
failed to have its practical instances OF
realistic application.

Two Billions to Pay for the Crops.

1t takes two billions of dollars to pay

all lin silver dollars it would weigh

take a hundred trains of twenty cars
each to carry it. The train crews
would number 500 men, and several
regiments of troops would be needed
to guard it's way to the formers. The
man who says this is not great coun-
try will please haul in his horns.
