Letter From Norris.

NUIiIos
Though news be scarce and tn,
weather windy, there is a consola
tion for your correspondents, there
remains a subject ipexhaustible
and always open for discussion
which is the onl' topic of conver.
sation; cotton, cotton, cotton. II
appears also that this is subject
which anybody can write on and
everybody give advice on, however
the opinions, experiences and adj
vice given by some people who are
IN position to know whereof they
speak; their voice is as "sound-
ing brass or a tinkling cymbal. "
We do not mean to criticlse what
has been said and written on the
subject, hut The way it is received
by large number Of those who
are in position to act, in whose
hands there remains the power to
control and rule the King cotton.
There has been a few organiza-
tlons of the farmers in. Piclxens
county, and we have it upon au-
thority that these unions are pro-
crossing and working satisfactory
to the members, which is evidence
in part what the writer wishes to
impress Sim union thore is
strength Now it has been often
repeated that there ls one class of
people that cannot bo organized
and they arc tho farmers. 1t is O.
lamentable fact If true, but your
scribe will not yet accept the
statement az truth. However, if
time rolls on and the farmers be-
como more servile from year to
year, beng oppressed by many,
then we would say that they are
as "dumb cattle driven"
Farmers acquit yourselves like
men, prepare for tho battle, have
confidence IN your own selves and
march on to victory. Don't hest.
tate and wait for other professl0n-
ais to equip you as regulars and
give you assurance that there
awaits for you at the end a remun-
GRAFTON or q pension.
Perhaps some farmers who read
this little piece, through curiosity
if nothing more, will think first,
II have already acquitted myself
like a man; l pay my honest debts
and have clear conscience, I'm
going to continue i'll my own way
and take care of my selt the best

give your valuable paper and many
readers a few dots from this Sec
tion Of the county. There has
been, and is yet, a good deal of
sickness, but most all are better
now.
After so much rough weather,
the past week was fine, and I tell
you the farmers were going with a
rush too.
Timber is badly broken, split
and bent from the recent snow,
sleet and ice, the most I have ever
seen.
Well, the farmers are very cool
and quiet over the guano question
this time. So far I haven't heard
of a single load being hauled
Before, thoy were trying to soe

and would be boasting of how much
they were going to use.
