HUBSAS FOE TILLMAN. Let every true son of Lexington J O stand by the Tillman. or Regular Democratic ticket, fearless of all conse?iiQtinae ar.<l occori rnnr ricrllts fl.c \iU^UV/tO CVJJLVA. MOKTVA V J vv** free men, and see that no few hot heads in this State shall play any bluff game with you. If they choose let them have the credit of ruining the State. The Republican State Executive Committee was in session in Colum_ bia on Monday. John L. Tolbert was endorsed as the nominee of the * party for Congress from the Third Congressional District and G. G. Alexander of Camden, ex-Democratic Senator from Kershaw, now Postmaster, was endorsed for Congress from the Fifth District. No action in regard to the Haskell ticket was taken, but a sub committee was appointed to prepare an address to the people of the State and to consider the advisability of putting out a State ticket. The Independents or ? 'SPcLaneites were in and about the meeting, and it is yet difficult to predict what will be done, whether they will hold off and endorse the Haskell ticket or run a secret ticket of their own, taking advantage of the split now existing in the Democratic party, with the hope of again controling the State government. Upon the whole, it is getting to be nice mess and just simply from the fact of a few hot heads in some counties who are determined to rule or ruin the State. The 2'2d Annual Fair of the State Agricultural and Mechanical Society will be held in Columbia, November 10th to 14th inclusive. Efforts are being made to make it the largest, most complete and attractive ever held in the State. The railroads and express company will cam- exhibits and return them for one full rate. The report of the primary result in the Congressional race in tne itn District between Duncan and Shell is not complete up to the time of our going to press, but it is thought that Shell has won the race by a jjmall majority. I j A gentleman from Barnwell County I who intends to move to Arkansas early next year expects to carry fifty families of colored people from that county with him. And it is said that a strange negro preacher is now in Orangeburg County making engagements for some two thousand colored laborers for plantations in Louisiana. The crops in eastern Colorado are o -failure this year in conse Cb WlAiJl/AV wv ?. w ? ^ quence of drought and many families are suffering for the want of the necessaries of life. Forewarned is forearmed?and as we have been warned that the "Rule or Ruin" element in this State are forming a combination with the negroes to defeat the nomination of the Regular Democratic party. We will nflf nrr ooats and work AXA UOU Jk/tUA V? hard from now until the going down of the sun on the 4th of November for the success of the Tillman ticket. Papa Has Another Son Who Lectures Him, Dear Papa: I see in your epistles to "Rezinagro,, that you have said some very hard things about the fanners: One thing is that farmers have not the right nor the brains to control the government. Papa, the farmers support the government with their taxes and with their produce and labor. You say the farmers scratch their farms for two or three months in the year and then look for a bountiful harvest. Now Papa, you knpw better, for you have seen them begin in February to plow /vYnfrmia until the middle of CLX&V4. July, not merely scratching, but, plowing, and if it was not for the farmers there would be no government, for there would be nothing for the smart government officials to subsist upon; and for that very reason the fanners have the right to control the government. The farmers always have had brains enough to run the government, for some of the very best Presidents that ever entered the White House at Washington were farmers, and some of the best gov; ernors that ever sat in the chair of j State were farmers; and how can you j say in int? mot? yj. au. mcoc *uwa tM?? farmers have not the brains to control this government, and that capital i is the most powerful thing on earth? Why Papa, is it possible that you are so ignorant as to think so 1 Why it does not control the power of God worth a cent. You cannot buy the least shower of rain with your boasted capital and you cannot buy one single moment of time with all the capital this world contains, and the power of God is on earth certain. Now Papa as you are a teacher of farmers' children, pray tell me how many hours you teach for a day. Don't you commence about 8 or 9 for a days work? .Ten or twelve 1 ?'? no'nfc Hours, &HU oniy get nuv-uv vj And what do you get for a days work f two dollars or more, and that is always the way, the one that does %t * 7 most work gets the least pay. Let's see how the merchants have befriended the poor farmer. He did sell him goods on credit, but at 50 or 75 per cent, profit on their regular cash prices, and to make sure of their pay, they must have a hen on the farmers' crops and sometimes on their stock. "When the time comes to pay up, the merchants clean them up, and then they cry out broke, with all the earnings of the poor farmers in their pockets, while some of their best friends who have credited them for goods and lent them money; and then the sheriff sells out all their old rotton goods, which are so no account that the} could not sell I them, and after the officers are paid, the rest goes to their creditors. '1 Hen he puts up again, more and better goods than before, and is prepared to sell to the poor fanners again on like terms as before. That is the way the merchants have befriended the farmer?every time to their own interests and the downfall of the poor fanners. Now, Dad, you know that is the truth, and you say that there is no loss on silver, but there is a great Joss on cotton. You mean to the farmer, of course, and not to the merchant, for the merchant buys the fanners' cotton and gives him what he pleases for it, and is always certain to give little enough. That the fanner gets almost nothing for his cotton, and the merchant gets profit enough to make himself a for-' t"ue, besides, stealing one or two pounds for sample and cheating the farmer out of from five to twenty pounds in weight- That is another - # ?/? 7 way the merchant has oi uemenurng the farmer. As he has so many ways of befriending the poor farmer, i and has borne the burden of stealing { and cheating the farmer so faitli! fully, it is time he should begin to retaliate sure enough. To the world the larmers have been salvation, For with their bread they have fed every nation; And without the farmer there would have been starvation Of all the rest of creation. I have been your obedient son. Syhea. Bucklen's Arnica Salve.

J "It goes right to the spot," said an j old man, who was rubbing in Dr. J. 1H. McLean's Volcanic Oil Linament to relieve rheumatism. The Farmer the Best Friend of the 1 Merchant?Alliance, Etc. Mr. Editor and readers of the Dispatch: It has been some time since i I have taken the liberty of using the < pages of the Dispatch to express my : views on any subject, but the invitation of UC.," in your last issue, has inclined me to say a few words in i regard to the matter of which "CM has written. In the first place, UC." asserts that me uiexciitvuL id farmer, Well, I do hope that there is not any farmer of good reasoning powers that would deny this statement of his. ''But please allow me to ask right here: Is not the farmer the best friend and customer the merchant has"? Therefore all favors shown the farmers by the merchant are returned in like manner by patronage to him. I admit that in some instances, and even oftener than it should be, the friendship of * ?i l ii . ? the merchant toward me larmer is returned as friend "C." has it in his article, but when such is the case, please allow me the question, who is the loser"? If the merchant, then how is it that so few of them are growing solvent? which would certainly be the natural result, but on the contrary, they are, with but few exceptions, growing in wealth, as is shown by the increase of wealth in towns and cities. Now, if the one don't pay and the other does not lose as the result of the non-payment, there must be a third party, which will 1 I- ^ Vvill HPbto mnof lvo JQL&V6 LU IWt LJJ.C* UJLll. JL mo muow i/v the man who buys and does pay for what he gets, and of course, the man who receives credit to a greater amount. Now, when I speak thus I do not only draw conclusions, but speak to some extent from experience, having had something to do with merchandising. This condition of things must exist as long as our laws are such as at present, and as Jong as we fanners need the assistance of the merchant in the way of advances. And it would be wrong of any of the farmers to denounce the merchants as a whole for dishonesty, or even as being antagonistic to us as farmers, mi ? i- -i 1 T JLiiere are uisiiunobi/ uim, ?.uu. ?o j. might call them, Shylocks, among the merchants as well as any other class j of people, but never should the whole class be denounced as such, and is not either. Most especially not by the Farmers' Alliance. But this does not mean that we, as farmers, should not try to make our future better than the past or present. This is and should be the aim of our order. It is not the few cents saved in buying a pound or two of sugar and coffee that the Alliance was ever brought into life for, as some friends have been thinking. Neither is it our small politics that has caused the farmers to organize, if it has been used for that purpose, it was a wrong done to the principles of the order, and will, I hope, in the future be avoided. But we have an pnemv to fi/rlit that is not onlv stroner in money, but in influence, arid one which has, I am sorryt^^^^w^ --j. '>$*??. 'W^r^S^'rJ set for themselves, but with the proper unity, laying aside all selfish motives by individuals, the work not only can but will be accomplished. If not in two or three yoars, then, perhaps, in five or six. The reward in the end is sufficient to keep us in ranks for a long time, most especially if we guard ourselves so that local influences cannot disrupt us before we succeed. A more liberal financial policy is needed, and it does not matter so much, perhaps, which special bill has the sanction of Congress, 9o.it brings about this healthy financial system. For instance, take France, which is " * XV _ .?? _1 JL 1?T ? to day one 01 rue rieuusi ci/uuuies uu the globe, had only, about eighteen years ago, to pay an indemnity of $1,000,000,000 to Germany besides the expenses of its own army during the war, the desolation brought about as a result of the war, and yet lose twc of its richest provinces in the bargain. To day she stands proudly higher than any of her neighboring States, and her yeomanry is in better circumstances than any other State in Europe. Nothing but the sound and favorable financial policy would or could have brought about such results. Therefore should net this raise the desire in our breast, not only the farmers and laborers, oh no! its not them alone that will be benefitted, but all classes and conditions of our commonwealth that labor for their daily bread, be they professionals, merchants or others, with the simple exception of the comparatively small number of monopolists, who, simply by smart manipulation of the money market, control the prices of - * * ? .1 0 all products, may tney be 01 tne iarm, mine, factor}' or elsewhere. This is the purpose and intent of the movement of to-day, and as such, should reecives the hearty support of most all the people. In conclusion, a few words in regard to the homestead law, as I have viewed it for some time. It tends to make money harder to get, as such makes it dearer, and must naturally result in injury to the masses. I also believe that it, as well as the lien law, as necessary as the latter may seem, tends to increase extravagance in thoughtless persons. In my humble opinion, the homestead law should be abolished. But enough, I fear I have wearied perhaps, some of the readers, provided they have taken the time and trouble of reading over this lengthy harrangue. liespectfully, Thos. E. F. Holzhauser. The Haskell Movement. Prominent Columbians Condemn It. The Charleston World yesterday published letters from Colonel William Wallace, Colonel F. W. McMaster. Colonel Leroy F. Youmans, Colonel Wilie Jones, Mr. H. C. Patton I -? ?* t ana ivir. jasper ouuier, ui uujs cilv,iu which these gentlemen, in reply to the query of our Charleston contemporary, give their views in regard to I the movement to nominate a StraightI out ticket in opposition to tho Till | j man ticket. All of these gentlemen J ( except the last named one (Mr. Mil lerj deprecate the movement and will not support it. Mr. Miller did not care to express his views fully at present, but indicated a leaning in the direction of the movement. Colonel Wallace say3 in substance ... . -that, any one opposing Tillman's aomination is a traitor to ; m State, and suggests that the StjL ' Executive Committee call a me<?ig at the earliest practicable monJnt. to be composed of the Demociftic nominees for Congress and a? least one nominee for the State legislature from each County, whole duty it shall be to obtain such |ape^uard8 as may be necessary to selure a fair election according to the time intent and meaning of the election laws of the State. Colonel McMaster says that he will vote the full Tillman ticket because he believes it to be tVe duty of each individual of a party vote for the party nominee, whoevc r he may be, and is convinced that an antiTillman ticket jeopardizes the supremacy of the white race. Colonel LeRoy F. Youm.ms says: "I have only to say that I am opposed to any movement which would place any ticket in the field in opposition to the regular State Democratic ticket/' VT n Pftftnn on swots flip xf 11. XX. v/. X UIJUVJLL VA>^ query more at length than -the above named gentlemen. His views are in main the same as theirs, and he will support the Tillman ticket. Colonel Wilie Jones says lie feels it his duty as a Democrat to vote the ticket nominated by the State Democratic Convention. You are in a BMfcFix. But we will cure you^*you will pay us. Our message is to the weak, nervous and debiltated, who, by early evil habits, or later indiscretions, have trifled away their rigor of body, mind and manhood, and who suffer all those effects which lead to premature decay, consumption or insanity.
