Manning, November 12.-The fol-1 lowing resolutions have been passed by the Farmers' Protective Union of Clarendon oounty : . Whereas there is great complaint in all sections of the country of a soarcity of farm labor and as most of the farmers are seriously embarrassed in conducting their business by their inability to secure suffiolent labor, and as we think the cauro is in the lien merchant who expect." to reap a big profit in the fall, furnishes sup plies to incompetent people and also to others who are not in fit condition to farm, thereby depriving the farm ers of numbers of good laborers that would be in better oondition if they would work with the men that are competent and in oondition to farm, and we also honestly bolieve that all individuals and the business world at large would be in better oondition if the lien law was repealed, as it has outlived its usefulness and at the present time little less than a curse to tho agricultural interests of the State ; it fosters and encourais the useless expansion of the cotton aore age to the neglect of food crops and diversified farming; it perpetuates shiftless methods of farming and does great injury to tho energetio and substantial farmers of our State, who are deprived of their legitimate labor. Jt is also a groat injustioe to honest men, as they necessarily have to pay more for what they have to purchase, from the faot that goods arc being sold to their neighbors at lien prices and the merchants could not afford to have his prices too far apart. It has boon taken advantage of by speculative merchants and farmers for the purpose of getting more trade, and as we think it has outlived its usefulness and beoome an injury to tho farming and busi ness interests of our State it should bo repealed ; therefore bo it Resolved, by tho Farmers' Protec tive Union of Clarendon county : 1st. That we condemn tho lien law and consider it ono of tho most seri ous obstructions to the best interests of our State, and request our repre sentatives in tho Legislature to use every effort possible to havo it re pealed. 2d. That wo request all people in the State, especially farmers, to or ganize and have the lien law and any other Nw that is injurious to the ag ricultural interests repealed.

Since the Senate Com mittee on Commerce reported the nomination of Crum there have been several changes in the membership of that committee. Mason, of Illi nois, and Jones, of Nevada, Repub licans, and Vest and Turnor, Domo orate, have retired. The opposition to Crum loses three votes, "whifo Mason was a pronounced advocate of the negro collector. It is probable that the reorganization of the com mittee may result in a favorable re port on the Crum nomination, but the opposition on the minority side is sufficiently strong to provont his confirmation.
