Renwlck BradleyJof Abbeville were guests at the Park Avenue hotel IVU , in New York city which was burned a few fc days ago. A telegram came flrtrt which said Mrs. Bradley wan Bllgbtiy Injured, and of course this was a sufficient cause for great ft* suspense and anxiety not only of the family s and relatives, but tbelr many friends as well, ?. - but soon ibelr anxiety was greatly relieved t - by tbe receipt ol a letter conveying the news ^ , tnat botn Mr. and Mrs. Bradley were only Bllgbtiy Injured, having received sprained ankles by Jumping from windows in tbe > -v burning building.

" XUBfO WOO tt UUJD nuou ouf/pij nuu .-m.< governed the price or cotton and other f,' " commodities, bat that good old time has long since passed and It now makes but little ditlerence whether mnch or little is raised as 2Vv ' tb? price Is oontrolled by combinations on the pari of speculators, or monled men who F'K not only with great acouraey map out the number of acres that will be planted, and the number of bales that will be made, but ac-}s' tually plaoe their own price upon the entire j\" - crop, making the larnaers mere hirelings lor ;iv them, as they have no control over ibeir own produce. This Is a lemen table fact that : Is keeping the farming class down, making > them poorer and poorer each year. These . monled combinations have them in their . old tobes and hold them until all the cotton is in their, hands when they invariably raise the price which peouniail y Is no good to tbe ?> '. larmcr. but only a "modest pointer" to get fefe v. them to plantjanotber' blK crop ' wbicn tuey of coarse will do. The Southern farmer ought to be and can be. If be will, the mom r'; Independent of all men. They have that ad. vantage in climate thai makes it Impossible for any part of the world to compete with them In raising cotton, hence It maybe said Ijg' that "the great South snail olotbe the world." Western jarmers are organizing, and 'tis said that bad It not been tor tne "Cotton Qrawers Protective Association," holdlug . , their ootton, this crop would have sold for sfittv. about e cants. Now if through this organlzaW. V" Uon the Southern farmers nave been saved i ?z. from fifty to one hundred millions ot dollars, sow much oould be saved if the majority ol f|^7. them would organize? Combination and ' Trusts controls the price of ootlon, Iron, steel, ? ooal, salt, sugar, coffee and all articles 01 trade, than why should the farmers longer be satisfied to have these combinations price and buy their produots, .when by organization they can revolutionize the whole business and TCgaln much of their lost fortune? i This Is a day oi organization then let the farmers of the Southland organize aud /.' - oontrol their own business as nearly all other classes do throughout the world all. of which are directly against the interest of the i termers. ^ I AT ^riOU'S ALTAR?COCHRAN-GIBBS.
