I %%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%% The Faruaers' Uuion baa come to stay, don't labor uutfer tbe balucination tbat it is just a passing seutimeut anu will boou blow over, the Uoion is based ou right principles and is fast succeeding iu tbe accomplishment of the purpoees for which it is intended. First, it is a Farmers'union. There have been unions galore, but this is tbe first Farruero' union, a union of the farmers, for the farmers aud by the farmers. tiecond, it is an Educational union. The Farmers, through the union are being educated to the point of self reliance. They are being awakened to a realization of the fact tbat no one is going to espouse their cause. Be Is be k,. . glUUlIlg IU intru LUHl lUCJf UJUBk uc BC1I I reliant, that no Moses is going to lead i them out of Egyptian darkuess into a t laud of promise, unless he comes from i the rau&s of the farmers. c Third, it is a co-operative union, t Ou this depends the succe s or failure c of the union. The working together, c as a unit of the southern farmers will u create a force for the betterment of the c farmers that would startle the entire t< laud. Co-operation is the key uote of n success Do you know that this body, t he southern farmers, acting together \ jould get almost anything they waut? ti Do you know that they could sell every |] pound of coitou for 15 ceuts? Do you t snow that they could bring such force a to bear on the legislative assembly, ot g< Lhe country that could shape the lawt>f the laud as suited them? It is inieed true, all this could be done. It s well worth a trial, bo let us he for an ? iid to the work aud not a hihdrance. 3et in line and help the fight, "till he last armed foe expires.'' A Bawhlde Case. D You Deed cot think because you iave downed the cotton speculators in his, the third round that lie will bt?y u lown. No indeed, it is a life and death UK with them for they have been do- M ng, this thiug some of them all their " )ut?lues8 life, and they are about as >( lard to kill out as the cat with nine ives. You may correct their bearish articles in the papers todav, and la a ew days hence they will break out igain with another batch of false reneeentations. They are a rawhide :ase! You know if you put your foot >n one end of a rawhide an'd under* Dl ake to hold It down' there, that it vill cock up at the other end, if you ? itep on both ends it will cock up on he sides, and if you hold it down all w iround it will cock up in the middle, c ind if you jump on the middl of it vith both feet it will cock up all a iround. If you want to hold a raw- w lide down, yon must stand on It all >ver at the same time and keep standng on it. * But, as the farmers are about as rj <ough a problem as the rawhide, cot- tt on speculator, and there is more farMere than there is cotton speodlators, here are enough farmers in the cotton ifntoa if thpv will Mttak together?to set down on these mwbide cotton a peculators all over tbe country and 0 iold tbem down to tbe ground /as fiat tj is a wet blanket will lay! , Q We must not for once think that p when we kill out one set ofvcotton ^ bears that tbe fight ends there; we must keep up a regular standing auny >f Farmers' union men all the time at work and on tbe lookout for our enemies to break out in a new place. We g mast keep up a regular watch all tbe while, and above all put our best and most capable men in obargeof our organizations who has the ability and manhood enough to brave any task set \ oeforehim when be bag the support of i vicious cause behind him,?Anderson Daily Mail, t! ?. ? v Tl??t i# cpot Cation, * We farmers' union men have bad I J~-l ^KA VMIKUA oknnl I I UVBI VU B&y V*' VMO |iuuuu nuuui * the coueervatlve farmer and bis efforts t towards establishing staple price for t bis great money crop, ootton, that 1; would allow the producer a reasonable i ihare of the profits of our great wealth C producing staple. We have started ? Kit In this thing to demand a fair deal, b with all our legitimate occupations. I We have sung the song of " live, and I let live," give us a reasonable profit in our products and then we are will- a ing for the other fellow to have a rea e jonable profit on bis labor, ptc. 8 We set a price qMU cents for our fi last year's record breaking crop, and c we got it! We set 11 cents for tbie p present crop, and we have gone past that. Now shall we as an organization ? make a leap of $20 per bale at one ptride and prove to the world that we ire as unsteady and as unstable in our affairs as the wtldly Wall street cot- *' ton gambler? n W.e must Bland firm before, the world as an organization, aDd say no! " That we will not now endorse tnia charge from 11 cents to 15 cents. We are perfectly willing for our members to get 15 cents or more if they cau for their cotton, apd we W'U all take E})1 that wp'can get but, yfe must not as an organisation. ?et individuals h go out as such, and get all they cau, a but the union has a reputation to sus- g tain in thin matter, and to do it. we li cannot move our minimum price from t 11 cents!?Anderson Daily Mail. I a We have said as an organization, ? that 11 cents as a minimum would give us upon an average?a reasonable profit ana if we have made a mistake, that mistake <s our misfortune, and we cannot now go before the world as I conservative uumuesa ujeu ouu icu u the people that we deg^nfl what we already h&ve said was an unreasouable c price for our produota. Jf we know E anything about our union men, we + are of the opinion that the Farmers' union does not want any credit as an t organization for this change to 15 cents, f Let the Issue go as a winner or not! The Farmers' union does not want any reputation on the side where flucf 9 ' ~ a ^ CtmJU uatioue in prices makes a bound of tour ceuts per pound at one leap. The easiest wav to get out of the bole Is not to get in the hole. Now nop and figure awhile on this problem. Say you buy a good pair ol mules, now at $500, and make paper? to pay for them lu cotton at 10 centtwill take ten bales to pay for thifteam, without the feed whiob wil' take three more bales at least for the feed for one year, to say nothing about the bill for gears, tool*, fertilizer and laboi bo produce this cotton and get It tq the. market. You can -, raise your own mules and feed at less than one-halt :hese prices, we know this to be trge. We have a doleful tale to tell jusi bere about a green farmer who has t? vife and children at home depending ipon bis labor and judgement. Tbiii^ouug man had a very good old mul* hat made a fair crop this year, but he young man concluded that he wanted a young mule. He goes to the , nule trader and exchanges his mule or a young one, promising $165 boot. , be trader rating the old mule at $35. md the young mule at $200. A few lays later another farmer traded oi J >ought theold mule that the votiny nan sold at $85 for $125. Now this | nule trader is not the man to put all his blame upon, for be is in this busi less for n]| the profit be cau get out >f it.
