I'Togross of tho Alliance.
[From tho l'ce-Doe Itulox.]
Thc Alliance people in South Car
olina havo now entered upon tho
uc?pnd year of educational and co
operative effort on the several lines
of Alliance work. 18SS was devoted
to tho work of organization; in 1889
tho work of organization was con
tinued, and is now-8th hYbrunry,
1800,-planted in every county in
tho Stato. The planting under the
direction of your executive commit
tee has been done at the minimum
cost, and this work will likely he
very nearly completed before your
second annual meeting in July next.
Our desperate condition, finan
cially, rendered our organization pos
sible, and to thc betterment of that
condition our greatest efforts have
been put forth. I.;isl year thc efforts
nt co-operative trade was by Sub
and County Alliances securing for
themselves tho best terms possible.
Tho results obtained while more or
less satisfactory, were very unequal,
the saving effected being estimated
nt from 8 to .'13 per cent on last year's
purchases, dopenden I largely or
mainly on the financial condition of
the different sections of thc State,
tho larger saving being only possible
on thc credit system of purchasing;
and attention is especially invited to
this as showing how minons has
been that system, and as ruinous
morally as financially. Lot us not
blame others solely because such a
condition of things was ever possi
ble, but let us like true men assume
our full share of tito responsibility.
Reckless risks demanded ruinous
profits, but WO now see our folly in
consenting or submitting to such
conditions so long. And now that
wc have organized to correct this
and other abuses, wc must bc careful,
very careful, about thc cha rael er of
our members. We have taken in
and must continue to lake in mem
bers who arc "financially bankrupt,
if they have good moral character."
^?Phis is right. NW' honor our or
y gani/ation by tho offer! to lift them
lip-to improve their (intmcial con
dition-but we cannot alford to
carry them if they should even seem
to be careless about their financial
obligations. Should they fail to
practice that strict economy, <>r to
exhibit that industry and constant
application to business so necessary
to success, wo must expel them. To
retain them would be wrong to all
who tire battling for tho manhood
and independence of thc farming
and industrial classes.
Tho financial depression caused by
a partial 'failure of tho crops last
year is a trying ordeal to ??ur young
Organization in some sections of tho
Slate, which is a mat l er of deep con
cern to those fortunato elsewhere,
but thoil' activity and forwardness
in preparing for another crop prove
their indomitable pluck; in some
places last year tho crops were less
than half tho average. In such
places depression like l?gy?an dark
ness must bo fell. Jus! bow such
conditions are to ho mo! and over
e?me is a problem dillicull of solu
tion, but it will best bo done hy our
people standing together a united
brotherhood. The efforts at in
creased industry and a closer econ
omy lessen the danger from
Such ero]? failures; bul for thc prac
tice of such economy and industry
hast year, thc depression glowing ont
of tho crop failure would have been
more extended and trying than il
now is. In proof of this, il may
safely be claimed thal ibo South Car
olina farmers, taking the average of
tho winde State, commence the year
ison ;., better financial condition
than they did the year I8S0; not
withstanding the short crop. the
shortness of which more than off
set the higher prices at which il was
sold. A larger percentage nf thc
supplies bought for Alliance fanners
in 1801? will be bough I for cash than
has boon so hough! any previous year
by these same fanners. I should no!
deem it necessary lo remind tn.se
cash buyers thal they now have a
State Business Exchange which they
can use in thc purchase id' supplies
and sale of farm products, bul for
the fuel that they have been doing
this very same business through
agents of their local organizations
so successfully before the exchange
was established. Nour business
agent can be, inusl be. the largest
cash purchaser in the State, ami
should bo and, with your patronage,
would bc able lo purchase more
cheaply (han any oilier, ll is your
agency, and will be what you make
it.
But I have possibly said as much
as I should now on thc financial out
look. Thc educational work of the
Alliance is probably more advanced
along tho financial line than any
other. The methods of learning
along this linc are eminently practi
cal. I intended lo extend this h i
tor to convey some th oughts on po
litical economy, and our organs, State
and national, but I lind il will main
tins article too long, so I must defer
any attempt in that direction at
this time.
My recent visit to tho difieren!
sections of the Stale suggested the
propriety of what I have written as
well as what I propose writing in tho
nour future, as I may have opportu
nity. I gratefully acknowledge *my
indebtedness for personal kindness
whiiu on this lour, and my unquali
fied admiration for the devotion of
our people to thc principles of our
order. E. T. STACKIIOI SK.
Hurrah for Tillman!
The Greenville Enterprise and
Mountaineer, in an article on the
March Convention, says :
From thc very general responso
tunde to the call, and character of
tho men chosen lo tito Convention,
wc presume that candidates for Qoy
ernor and other .State officers will be
suggested lo tho State Democratic
Convention to be held in August, for
ratification. LTulesa the Convention
takes this action, it will fail in a
great measure in its purpose, and
tho Farmers' Movement will hence
forth be a dead issue and will never
assume any substantial shape again,
'doro than this, tho farmers will
cause themselves to he the laughing
stock of thc State in general and of
a certain part of the Democratic
party in particular.
The delegates from Greenville, in
our opinion, may expect to be called
Oil to exercise their best judgment
on the question. Of course, when
tho Convention assembles, and all
the circumstances likely to influence
tho members are known, the dele
gates will be better able to consider
what is best to be done; but it is our
opinion now that tho body will name
a ticket.
Some of thc newspapers of tho
State, notably the Charleston ?VetCH
and Courier, and the Columbia
Heg?8ter, have bitterly opposed this
movement of the farmers, declaring
that it is schismatic and thal it will
lend to disintegrate and divide the
Democratic party. We do not share
in such apprehensions. The Con
vention to beheld under.Mr. SUKI.i,'s
call is largely, if not altogether,
advisory. The Greenville County
Convention, with several others,
passed resolutions acknowledging
their fealty lo the party which those
composing il have in tho past been
acting. This has been clearly and
unequivocally enunciated, and there
can be no mistake about it. Not
withstanding these facts, an effort is
hoing made in various paris of thc
Stale to throw obloquy upon the
movement and lo condemn it, out
and out. This is not right, and
lhere aro no just grounds for such
action. Klforts of (his character,
holli by fair means and by foul, have
been in; d". The Xi irs und Cottril r
in one uf its issues last week, in
making a consensus of tho action of
(lu- different meetings held in various
counties, slated that a resolution
favoring March nominations had
been voted down by the ( '(invention in
Greenville. Such was not the fact,
and we know of no basis for the
statement. This error was never
corrected, as far as we know. Tho
consensus made np and published by
so able and influential a journal as
tho News and Courier should have
been verified in every pari icu'.ar;
inasmuch as an effort was made,
seemingly, with the view of influenc
ing nut! controlling the public senti
ment of tin' Stale therewith.
The fanners have, or claim to
have, various grievances. They
appeal to the public for a correction
O? them. This they have an un
doubled right to do, and ihis they
propose to do and that, too, within
the ranks ol' the D?mocratie party.
When they are doing this, .it is
wrong to slur their efforts or to
question their integrity as members
of their (diesen political organ i/.a lion.
Their proposition to suggest names
lo the party for tho make-up of thc
ticket for Governor and other State
oflicers, seems lo ha ve aroused a fel l
ing of distrust in the minds of their
opposcrs. Two years ago, upon the
assembling of thc Slate Democratic
Convention, when the farmers pro
posed to bring forward i candidate
for nomination for Governor who
was in sympathy with them, they
were told that they were too late
entering the Held, thal (hey should
have made a canvass of tho Stale,
Otc, as had already been done by
thc omi gentleman before the public
at the time. Thc objection then had
some merit in it. Now the fanners
are confronted with tho charge that
they are prematuro too early open
ing the campaign, and are endeavor
ing to dictate a ticket for the Stale
and forestalling, by the action of
one (dass, a work which belongs to
thc representatives of the Demo
cracy as a whole. It is no crime fo
oi.e class to got together and make a
suggestion, whether it bo fanners,
ministers, artisans, editors, (dc, oct.
If tiny can present to the public a
formulation of what they think arc
in judicious or unwise lines ol' policy
in the nd ministration of the public
affairs of the State, it is md only
the right of any or either (dass to do
so, but it is a duty that they should
perform. This is all the fanners
mean to do at this time.
All reforms of abuses, however
slight Ol'great, arc brought about ,
by an agitation of the abuses in
question and the pointing out of the
m.
iw?*M, kmMMWiwM* <i-w---? M ?w<iaiia>ww
manner of their correction, This is
what tho farmers aro doing at thia
time. In despotic countries like
Kassia, snell a movement is impos
sible; but in free America freo spoeoh
is protected. No sano man, whether
following the vocation of farmer or
not will so act as to divide tho Dem
ocratic party in South Curolina, so
that a condition of our public, allai rs
similar to that existing in this State
from 1808 to 1870, will be made pos
sible. The farmers do not .vant it,
are bitterly hostile to it, and will not
have it. They have rights, however,
and their views of how thc State's
affairs should be managed and con
ducted are entitled to respect and
consideration of those who honestly
differ with them.
We think this movement in the
Stale has assumed a most substantial
form and whether or not a ticket
will he named, it will exert much
iuflucnco hereafter in thc politics of
the State.

TII.K CUlTIf'ISM,
[Fruin tho Laurcnsvillo Herald.]
There was never a measure of a
political nature that met with more
opposition by tho press of the State
than the proposition of thc Execu
tive Committee of the Fanners'
Association to hold what is known
as tho .March Convention. With
few exceptions this opposition has
been general, persistent, and in some
instances, unnecessarily bitter, not to
say scurrilous. In other instances
the opposition has been dignified,
bul at thc same lime pronounced and
vig'lcnl. A few of tile newspapers
could lind no terms too sneering and
contemptible to apply to the pro
position to make nominations-or in
other words for a body of Demo
crats to express their preference
for Stale officers, this expression of
preference to be submitted to the
State D?mocratie, nominating Con
vention for ratification or rejection.
This is, as to thc matter of tho pro
posed nominations, all tho .March
Convention contemplates, ls there
any likelihood ihat such action as
this will disturb tho peace and har
mony of the Slate? If so, we fail
lo sec wherein or how. True, such
action might disturb thc political
bosses and wire-workers, who have
so long had things their own way.
lilli whal of that? It they should
bc forced to slop down and out who
will shed a lear at their departure,
save those who have enjoyed placo
and pap by tho management ?
Much stress has been laid, and
serious complaint al'cgcd, against
tho "lone and temper" of Captain
Shell's manifesto, as the address of
the Executive Committee of the
Fanners' Association has boen deris
ively termed, as if he alone was
responsible for il. Admit ling, at
least for the sake of argument, that
there were some expressions therein
which might have been couched in
softer phrase's,-ami perhaps should
have been-yoi whatever there was
objectionable in thc paper in question,
some of tho criticisms by thc press
of thc Stale have boon, in tho way
of sneers and innuendo, equally If
liol more reprehensible than anything
complained of.
Despite tho general opposition to
thc March ('on vent ion, however, by
tho press of tho State, the people
exercised their own judgment last I
.Monday, and Conventions were held
in nearly every county in ibo State,
evidencing tho fact that even the
almost combined power of the
"fourth estate" was inadequate to
defeat tht> propositions to hold a
Convention on tho 27th instant.
And while we have hitherto thought
it doubtful whether nominations
would he made, wc believe now such
notion will la- taken.
To make nominations is just what
thc opposition do not want. They
seem willing, if a Convention should
be held al all, for any tbing else to be
done save the putting forth a ticke?.
Some of them say, in off oct : uO,
yes, let the ('.invention beheld; the
farmers have a righi lo meet together,
and talk over their grievances, bm
they must not make nominations.
That would never do !"
I {ead between thc lines of opposi
tion simply means lo say: "Well,
if the farmers will meet, let (hem
meet, formulate their complaint
which will amount to nothing in the
ciel, wc hope - then go home ami
behave themselves like good) easy,
forbearing ami burden bearing peo
ple, as thoy always have been. We'll
run the political machine in thc same
old grooves. Hut you must gel out
