Smith, ticld agent oi tlie Southern Cotton Association, made an address which seemed to make a most favorable impreasion. When Mr. Smith got into the midst i f his exposition of the cotton situation and the future of the Southern farmer, the many excellent types of tins Southern farmer present gathered close around mo stnncl with open eyes nnd mouth to hear his pleasing message. MR. SMITH'S SPEECH. Mr. E. D. Smith was very enthusiastic over the new cotter movement in the South, and declared "If God Almighty made the grass Ho made Ed Smith, so God Almighty is responsible for the rise in the price of cotton." He soon had the entire crowd gathered close around him hanging onto oach word, while h?? explained tho reason the farmers of the South were poor and expounded to them the doctrine of making cotton bring every cent it will bring. lie outlined the plans of the association, dwelling especially on the warehouso and insurance scheme. Mr. Smith put a great deal of tire into his speech, a great many facts, and no small degree of fancy and fun. From the etandpoint of the farmers' cause, his was the speech of the oocasion. At tho conclusion of tho speech es, Mr. Smith stepped forward again and asked for a collection, tolling the fanners the cotton association had made them $100,000,000 richer than they were r few weeks ago and all they want ed was one nicklo from, eacl momher of the association. This, he said, would carry on tho work a year. He asked that they pay this* small contribution to the chairman after the meeting ad journed. Hut ho spoke so enthu sisastically that on# big farmoi standing near could not hold out till the end. "Whoopee! whoopee!'1 he yelled. "'That's right; go it! Here's a quarter."

Senator Tillman's memory when he remarks, "Then, men are indifferent, "as they were in tho "Prohibition election in 1892, ''when only 60,000 out of 92,000 voters voted in that box," is greatly at fault. The number of votes cast for candidates for office in the primary of 1892 was 88,474, nearly 4,000 less than the figures which the Senator has 1 i?iven. On the other hand, in the ' Prohibition box 70,53f? votes wnr<? ract '??%.! H?? ? 000 ....... v-f?i w, mcr>c ^U.iOO votes were for Prohibition, and 3OJ97 against it. At that time there were 35 counties in the State, 27 of which gave an ag" ^r<*?ate majority of 15,936 votes * for Prohibition, while eight counr tie* gave an aggregate of 5,797 1 against it. The net majority for Prohibition in the State was 10,' 141. ^ Senator Tillman's figures would " innke it appear that the vote on V the temperance question foil 32,? 000 short of the vote for Demo* cratie candidates, whereas it ac? 1 tually did fall s'oort less than 18,t 000. In other words, the Senator * blundered to the extent of about l4,o0o votes. ' The opponents of Prohibition 1 have persistently repeated the 1 story that the people generally took little interest in the temper* ance vote in 1892, and the gentlemen in the General Assembly who violated the contracts with the Prohibition majorities of their > counties by voting for the whiskey traffic as an amendment to the * Childs bill have labored to silence their own consciences as well as f the protestations of their constituents by encouraging the imj pression that this vote was sninll. The truth is, the vote on the temperance question in the I892 primary was remarkably large. We doubt if on any question of policy not personified by a candi date so large a vote has been cast i in this State within a quarter of a . century, if ever. Compare, for i example, the vote on the amend* ments to the Constitution submitted to the people last year, and it will be found that the temperance vote of 1892 was far greater. The truth is that the Prohibitionists in 1892, asking a fair field and no favor, won their fight by a decisive majority in an election at which more than seven-ninths of the white Democrats, as measured by the vote for Governor participated. A few months later they were buncoed out of the fruits of ] their victory; but?that is another story?News and Courier.
