MANNHEIM, Germany, Sept. 2e.-At the
annual congress Of the Social Democratic
party to-day DR., Bebel. the Socialistic
eader In the Relohstag in an able and
unusually temper ate speech made the
expected statement with regard to the pro-
posed political strike On mAsae with a view
OF influencing the elections, especially thoee
for the Prussian Diet.
DIR. Bebels statement was to the effect
that such q strike would not be feasible
until the party was 30 much better prepared
and organized that defeat at the polls would
be impossible. We're the strike en- masse
organised nov not only would defeat be
certain but popular III win would DO aroused
and the party would be laid under the ban
OF special legislation. Moreover, a strike
en- masse could not be artlhciaily arranged.
1t was possible only where the masses were
desirous OF and ready for II. Even In
Russia, where thore was less freedom than
in Germany, the people had IsErained from
10 because It was not considered that the
situation was favorable for IL.
Speaking OF the relations OF the Social
Democracy to the trade unions DR.. Bebel
SAID they were now nearer together, as tho
union leaders had said that in case che right
OF coalition should be ~infringed they would
Immediately begin q strike en- masse. ever
without awaiting the word Of command
from the Social Democracy. DR.. Bebei
freely admitted that the Social Democratic
party could do nothing without the sup
port and cooperation OF the unions, a. the
situation In Russia showed.

cotton that is offered you, or raise
everything at home and have some
thing all the time to sell and then raise
one-half the cotton you now raise and
get as much for it as you now get for
it with the probabilities much in favor
of getting more? 1t seems to me that
the last would be the best in every
particular, for it seems that everything
is in its favor and nothing in favor of
the Que crop plan. If it is possible to
yet the same price for one bale of cot
ton we are now getting for two we
save the expense of raising and mar
keting one-half, which would make the
profit about four times as much rs 1t
now is. -.
The things that to my mind will
make the South the garden spot OF the
world, will be diversified farming, till
ing, well, a few acres rather than
many acres poorly, securing good and
fertile seed and then improving them,
raising cattle and saving their manure,
using such farm machinery as will de-
crease the cost of producing a crop and
taking care of this machinery after 1t
is bought and then using judgementin
marketing the crops, whatever they
may be. Good roads may we'll be in
cluded.
If these things will make the South
more prosperous are they not worth
striving for?
Would it not be we'll to have Prof.
Newman, of Clemson, give us an arti-
Gle on the COW pea?\
Yours truly,

Fifteen determined, resolute farmers
in any local Union Lodge can build a
good one-section cotton warehouse if
they will come together with the con-
viction>that this thing must be done
for their mutual protection.
If the actual Gosh to pay for all this
warehouse cannot be raised by the
local Eodge and the members have the
true cooperative spirit among them
that all Union fal mers should have,
there is nothing in the way of them
clubbing together and making their
own concrete blocks and putting up
their warehouses with their own la
Dor. The old time cooperative plan
of h~ouse-raising, log-rolling, and corn
shocking may be worked in building
warehouses to considerable extent
where the Unions cannot raise only
money enough to produce the mate
rial. Our Union bureau is now getting
up plans and specifications for the
very cheapest and simplest. warehouse
plans and will publish the same as
early as possible.

Farmers Organizations.

In South Carolina We have had a
deal sight of experience in organizing
farmers. The old line of farmers So
cieties-the Grange, the Alliance and
Institute Clubs-have all come and
gone up in the smoke of time like the
burning down or the rotting away OF
old buildings that have disappeared
and better structures have taken their
places. So it is with the Farmers
Union. We have had a a amount
of experience in farmers organizations
and know that the Union is building
up a structure upon a better plan and
upon q tirmer foundation than all the
other organizations that have gone be-
fore.
We have learned many valuable les
sons in our mistakes heretofore, and
about all these mistakes a be turned
into good for the Union if we manage
rightly.
!. We want to impress upon the minds
of each and every member of the Far
mer's Union that he is one of the
stones in the walls of the castle that
the farmers are building, and that the
whole structure a be nc better than
the material of which the Union is
composed. Let every member ask OF
himself the one question, if every
member of our Union did just as [ am
doing, what sort of a Union would we
have?
And then when all Union men have
done this comparative lesson let the
unorganized farmer ask himself this
same question, suppose all farmers
thought themselves too wise, too good,
or too selfish to organize, what would
we have gotten for our two last crops
of cotton?

One Crop will Not Pay.

u This North Carolina man is right in
the middle ofthe progressive path for
Southern farmers!
H. Charlotte, N. c., May %.
Mr.. J. G. Stribling, Pendleton, S. G.
Dear Sir; 1t seems that my inquiry
of Mr.. Brsbham as to the way he de-
= veloped bis COW pea so that it would
not shed its leaves has developed some
little interest in this most important
subject. 1t has surprised noe no little
that none of the farmers in South Car
DINA took enough interest in this snb-
ject to ask about the matter. Why was
this: because they had also developed
this pea, and, therefore, had no need
to ask? and if this is the case why did
they not give this information to their
brother farmers as Mr.. Brabham has
done? I fear that it is because thema-
jority of farmers do not yet realize the
value of this plant, and, therefore, do
not take the interest in it that they
should. The same applies to many
other advances as we'll as to the sub
jeet of this letter. The average farmer
has not yet realized that one crop loot
toni will not as a rule pay.
I am glad though that we are becom.
ing more and more diversified and that
we gee the value of raising everything
on the farm for home consumption
that can possibly be raised. This is
the salvation of the farmers of the
South, diversifying and raising cotton
as q surplus crop, which a then be
sold at a price fixed by the farmer in
stead of the s%peculator. The farmer
can do this if he diversifies, but not
until he does. Look for a moment at
the condition of affairs if this was uni
versally followed by the farmers of
the South. By raising everything on
the farm needed and less cotton there
would not be the same necessity for
money, but ifthere was, as diversified
farming is more profitable than the u
crop plan, the farmer would have the
money if he needed it, and have it all
thelyear round instead of in the fall as
with the cotton crop, and then with
one:half to two-thirds Of cotton raised
that we now have the price would be
sufficiently high as to net the farmer
as much as he is now getting for his
cotton. This he would have as clear
profit, as he has been Giving at home"
This thing narrows itself down othis
question: which had you rather do,
raise q great deal of cotton, no home
npplies, and take the price for your

Seaboard Air Line Announces

Effective last Sunday at noon there

Air Line.
Probably the most important an
nouneemeut.in connection with these
changes is that a new accommodation
train will be put into service between
Atlanta and Abbeville, s. c., which
will make all local stops, thus render
ing it possible for trains Nos. 81 and
3S to make much better time, as 10 To-
cal business will be handled by either
in the future.
The new train will be known as Nos.
so and 81. No. so will leave Atlanta
each afternoon at 4 O'Clock, arriving
at Athens at 7:30 o'clock eastern time)
and at Abbeville. S. c., at $50 o'clock
eastern time). Returning, this train
will be known as No. 81 and will leave
Abbeville at $50 a. NJ. eastern time),
arriving in Atlanta at 8 o'clock. This
schedule will give persons living on
that division of the Seaboard an ex-
cellent opportunity to do their trading
in Atlanta.

All County Unions should begin
now toinaugurate a regular Farmers
Union campaign in each county to
begin when farmers have layed by
crops. , Let this campaign be one of
educating the farmer along the bust
ness side of his farming interest.
Chief among these subjects is that as
the farmer is the greatest producer on
earth, he is of course the biggest seller
on earth, and that he needs clearing
houses or warehouses to concentrate
his cotton and other imperishable pro-
ducts in.
