 Lord Curzon. the most brilliant of Ipdia's viceroys of recent years, in augurated a policy of reaction.

The result. however. was exact Iy the opposite of that which was in- tended. It aroused the Indians ana made them conscious of the possession of powers which they had not before employed.

Stafford, Ariz., March l2-Editors Cou-
rier: Change my address to Stafford, Ar-
zona, from Tempe, Arizona. We reached
here last Friday, and found many friends
who warmly welcomed us back to our
former field of labor. Large congrega-
tions attended both services yesterday.
Our house of worship, toward the build
ing of which so many OF your readers
contributed, is not completed, but we
worshipped in it yesterday for the first
time. If we could get from my South
Carolina friends 5000 more we could
finish the house, and then we would be
as comfortably quartcred as the people of
Waihaiia or Seneca. There are 200 peo.
pie in South Carolina who would send
me 81 each if they could only realize the
need. | hope they will make one more
effort for us.
My health is quite good. seem en-
tirely well.
hope the friends of temperance will
see to the enforcement of the law in
Oconee. They now have the best chance
they have ever had to show that prohibi-
ton comes as near prohibiting as any
other law.
With kind wishes for all my friends in
Oconee county, am, sincerely,

The Signs OF the Times.

If we are not badly deceived in
the signs of the times, farmers that
do not heed the warnings of the
Farmers Union and plant more food
crops now, they will be running
around next fall wanting everybody 8
advice about how to buy $40 ton
peavine hay and IL a bushel corn
with 6-cents cotton
Our big supply men and mule men,
TOO, had better butt in this thing at
once along with the Farmers Union
in their efforts to induce farmers to
plant more food crops and less cot
ton, or the game next winter will be
nip and tuck between these men and
the buzzards az to who will get the
most revenue out of this mule mort
gage business.
A good deal is being said recently
about live stock associations in each
of the counties of the State, which
will be good thing if our farmers
will take to them, and instead of
Dragging about selling peavine hay
and other food crops, they will raise
and feed more stock and take care of
the manure, they need not be howl
ing any longer about the guano trust !!
Our Farmers Unions should take
10 this live stock idea like young
ducks take to water; it is the natural
ching to do and right along the
straight road to the permanent build
ing up of the up-to date progressive
idea of the independent farmer of
the South.
All our Farmers Unions should
be each in itself good live stock
association, and talk more about
raising more and better stock and
talk less about raising more cotton.

Our Cotton on Hand.

Our efforts in these columns have
been chiefly directed towards check
ing, if possible, the increase of acre
age by silly farmers in cotton. We
have not thought it necessary to
give any advice here to the farmers
now holding their cotton. These
are men of business, and are usually
men with sufficient grit, pluck and
financial backing to carry their
points and know what they are about.
The cotton holders that now have
this matter in hand are about as
good tinanciers and have about as
much collateral and backing behind
them as the bear element have.
Cotton holders know now that about
all the scary holders have been
shaken out, and that the cotton bear
is now up against the real solid stuff.
Spot holders are we'll aware of the
fact that the spinner has got to have
about all the cotton before the next
crop comes in, and it matters not
whether the next crop will be small
or large crop. The thing is this,
the mills must run or the walking
mobs that are parading the streets
of the foreign manufacturing cities,
calling for work or bread, will wage
riot. Stopping the mills under such
condition would be equivalent to
striking match in a powder house.
Hold your holt, boys, and make them
come over!

At II Again.

As usual about this time of tho
year, when Southern cotton farmers
are trying to induce all cotton grow
ers to reduce their acreage to keep
down over production and conse-
quent ruin to the whole Southern
cotton States, some schemish Euro
pean cotton bears send out their
threats through our newspapers that
if we don't grow big surplus of
cotton at ruinous prices to the grow.
ers that they will get Africa to do it
for US.
The first round in the papers this
time about this African cotton grow
ing bluff was sent out by German
official, and later followed by q
French official, who claims TO have
grown and delivered cotton in Havre,
France, at the astonishing low price
of 34 cents per pound. Now, we
have all along had the opinion that
Wall street cotton bears were the
biggest liars this side of hades, but
we now give all the cake, pie and
crust to France.
There was time when this kind
of talk perhaps had some weight in
influencing cotton growers to push in
more cotton in order to keep their
trade with these foreign spinners,
but the up-to-date cotton planter of
to-day is well aware of the fact that
these English, German, French and
Russian spinners have all been send
ing down South for our implements,
seed and Southern men to grow cot
ton in Africa at times for about 40
years; but all efforts along this line
have proved to be about as practical
as it is to import monkeys here from
Africa to pick out our cotton. In
fact the two propositions are about
on par as to their practicability, for
it takes two men to mind one monkey
while he is picking cotton, and it
usually takes two of our Southern
cotton growers to mind one of those
native African negroes while he is
growing the cotton and keep him
at it.
When we come to reason this
thing over in our minds we are con-
fident that we have large number
of tame negroes here about among
our progressive cotton farmers that
would never do days work if they
could keep from starving and freez-
ing without it..
There is no necessity for negroes
to work in Africa for food and cloth.
ing, and it is against their nature to
do it here as well as there. We
have some white men here that have
the same disease.
All this talk about competition
with American cotton is rot and out
of date here, where we know that
the South has the ideal cotton belt
of the world, and we know how to
grow cotton and are learning how to
manufacture cotton, and still more,
we have learned to count the cost of
production of cotton, and how to de-
mand fair profit upon our products
and we are going to have it.
