An Appeal to the Farmers of the State
by Secretary Parker.

An Appeal to the Farmers of the State.
by Secretary Parker.
A condition and not theory now
confronts the tobacco farmers
condition that is largely due to the
lack of intelligent organization and
cooperation. We had as we'll look
the situation squarely in the face
and govern ourselves accordingly.
1t is we'll known that the Ameri-
can and Imperial Tobacco Compa-
MES, after they pooled interests last
fall. gave the farmers foretaste of
what they might expect this season
in the way of low prices, which
caused tobacco men generally to ad-
vice planting small crop for 1908.
Had there been active organiza-
ton and cooperation among the
farmers at the time and a full and
free discussion of the situation and
pending danger, the tobacco crop for
this year would, in all probability,
have been smaller than it now is,
and provision could have been made
to thwart the purposes of the COM
bine to get tobacco for less than the
cost of production.
And yet these need not feel dis
couraged beyond endurance. They
need only to look back at the days
of the jute bagging trust and re-
member what unity of purpose and
action did then. The same unity of
action on the part of the farmers
now toward the tobacco trust would
accomplish for them results equal to
those accomplished then. Deter.
minatiOn not to sell at sacrifice,
backed up by concert of action will
make them victors in their fight
for better prices.
The present seems to be an auspi.
cious time for organization; the PEG
pie are ready, Wherever there il
an organized Alliance let it's mem
bers bestir themselves and get their
neighbors to come in and be one
with them. Where there is nc
Alliance let the neighbors come to
gether in mass-meeting and reorga
nize one. 1 trust some progressive
farmer in each neighborhood viii
take the matter in hand and push
the work to completion. The writer
T will gladly send any incarnation q
his command to any one interested
Do not delay, but take up the worl
at once. For further information

The WilkesbOro Chronicle is
credited with the following bit of
information:
GA list taker living in the State
of North Carolina and in a county
and township therein located, in
making his returns, added the fol
lowing to the regular oath to be
subscribed in such cases:
Oh, do not swear or affirm
that my addition IS exactly correct,
but it is so near it that no one nor
the county nor State will be hurt
but If there is any mistake, 1 think
it is in favor of the county and
State"
The gentlemen referred to above
must be democratic politician. IT
reminds us very much of the way
democrats count votes in every
election.

From all sections of the state re-
ports come of indignation of the
people over the increased valuation
of property for the sole purpose of
squeezing more money out the PED
pie in the name of "taxes." And
the people are justly indignant at
such an outrage. For an outrage it
is and nothing else. There is not
perhaps one out Of a dozen Of those
selected to make the excessive
valuation who would give the
money they put some property at
being worth, however much they
may want or need such property.
But they they try to shirk the re-
sponsibility by saying they did as
they were Instructed to do. How
can you any longer vote with a
party that will employ men who
for the sake of a few dollars will
commit an outrage upon their
MISUNDERSTANDING Citizen.
