LDDRESS OF TiE GENERAL COMMANDING. I
A.ANTA, Ga., Sept. 8, 1889.
To the ex-Confederato Soldiers and Sail.
ors of the Confederate States of Ameri
ca: , 1
The convention of delegates from the
different States which assembled In New
Orleans, June 10, 1889, effected a general
organization known as the "United Con
federate Veterans." It is designed as an
association of all the bodies of ex-Confed.
crate veterans throughout the Union. The
convention adopted a constitution and did
me the great honor to elect mne General,
which position I accept with peculiar grat
ification. Preliminary to the issue of any
orders I wish to call general attention to
the
OnJEOTs OF THis ASOOIATION
and to enlist in their accomplishment the
active co-operation not only of every sur
vivor of Southern armies, but also that
large contingent of sons of veterans, who,
too young to have received the baptisr of
fire have nevertheless t-eceived with you
the baptism of sufferingland of sacrifice.
The first article of the constitution of
the association declares: "rhe object and
purpose of this organization will be strict
ly social, literary, historical and benovel.
ent. It will endeavor to unite In a general
federation all associatons of the Confeder
ate veterans, soldiers, and sailors now in
existence or hereafter to be formed; to
gather authentic data for an impartial his.
tory of the war between the states;:to pre.
serve the reles or mementoes of the same,
to cherish the ties of friendship that should
exist among the men who have shared
common dangers, common suffering and
privations; to care for the disabled and ex
tend a helping hand to the needy; to pro
tect the widow and orphan and to make
and preserve the record of the services of
every member, and as far as possible, of
those of our comrades who have preceed
ed us in eternity.
The last article provideA that neither ds
cussion of political or religous subjects nor
any political action shall be permitted In
the organization and any association viola.
ting that provision shall forfeit it nember
ship.
OOD OBJEcTs.
Comrades, no argument is needed to se
cure for those objects your enthusiastic en
(lorsetnent. They have burdened your
thoughts for many years, you have cierish.
ed them in sorrow, poverty and humilation.
In the face of misconstruction you have;
held them in your hearts with the streunth
of religous convictions. No misjudg.
nients can defeat your peaceful purposes
for the future. Your aspirations have
been lifted by the mere force and urgency
of surrounding conditions to a plane far
above the paltry consideration of partisan
triumlphs. The honor of the American Re
public, thejustpowers of -the federal gov
erment. the equal rights of states, the in.
tegrity of the constitutional union, the
sanctions of law and the enforcement of
order have no class of defenders more true
and devoted than the ex-soldiers of the
South and their worthy descenstants. But
you rea'ize the great truthl that a peoplv
without the memories of heroie suffering
and sacritices are
A PE01P.E w1THO0U'I A H16Tolty.
To chlerishl such mem-nories anld recaff,
such a past, whe-ther crowned with success
or consecratedl in detfeat, is to idealize prin
ciple and strengthen character, intensify
lohve of country andi convert (defeat and
disaster into pillars of support for future
manhloodi anmd noble womanhood. Whleth
er th' Siuthern petople umnder their chaing
ed conditons may- ever hope to witnless an
other civilization whlich shlall equal that
which began with their Washiington and
en~ded withl their Lee. - s certaInly true
that dlevotion to their g: ou past is not
only the surest, guaranltee- of future prog
ress 0and the holiest botnd of unity, hut is
also the strongest claim thley can present to
tile cofidence and~ respect of the other sec
tions of the Union.
NON-POLITICAL..
I conclusion I beg to repeat, In substance
at least, a few thoughts recently expressed
by mec to the state organization, whuich ap
ply with equal force to thlis general brother.
It is political in no sense except so far as
the word~ "politicai" is a synonymnan of the
word "patriotic." It Is a brotherhooa over
whlich the genius of phlilanthrophy and pa
triotisnm, of truith and of justice will pre
side, of phlilanthlroph~y, because it will suc
cor tile disabled, help the needy, strength
enI tihe weak and dcer the dis
conlsolate; of patriotism, because It will
cherish thle past glories of the dead Conm
federacy and transmunte themi Into living
mlspirat ions for future service to the living
repubhec; of truth, because it will seek to
gather and preserve as witnesses for hlistory
the unimnpeach~able facts whlich shall1 doonm
falsehlood to die that truth may live; of jus
tice, because It will culltivate national as
well as Southern fraternity and will con
demnl narrow indtednets and prejudlice
anid passion, and cultivate that broader
hlighler, nlobler sentinm-nt, wichl would
write on the grave of every soldier who
fell on eithler sidie: ''Here lies an Ameri
can hero, a marty-r to the right as his con
science conceived it.'"
oRNEntAL Ono(ANIZATION.
I rejoice that a general organization too
long negletedl has been at hast perfected.
It is a brotherhood which all honorable
mten must approve and which heaven itself
will tuless. I call upon you therefore to or
ganizie in every state and commaunity where
ex-Confederates may residle and rally to
the support of the hl ih and peaceful ob
jects, t.f the "United Con~federate Veter
anls," and move forward until by the pow
er of organization and persistent effort your
beneficent andl christian puirposes are fully
accomplishled- J. B. Gonnos.

WHAT AN OLD FARMER SAYS.
A farmer correspondent of the Anderson
?cople's Advocate, wrote the following
trong and sensible letter to his brother far
ners last week. It is well worth parusal.
Bveryone should read it carefully and study
he points given by him:
More corn has been planted this year,
md the growth of corn this year is good.
[t is easy In this country to make a plenty
)f corn and hay. Let us be sure next sea
;on to plant enough for our necessities and
tud a hittle imore against the contigencies of
)ad seasons and tinforeseen losses, and es
ychially igainst the ftictuations of the mar
iets, in the great staple of the South, cot
on. Blake sure of corn oats, wheat and
nay. These in plenty will enable to tide
ver all sulky aid sullen conditions of
rade without serious loss.
Gientlemen, let us not drift carelessly in.
o the usaul plautsible reasons for planting a
>ig cotton crop as we have done for many
'ears. Soic puff of political economists
klong about January next will run you into
Ie same slavery of a big cotton crop to
'eed the jaws of a choke in the money
narket. Then your corn money and your
lour mone w which has been planted in
'our coluIan field will have been soaked up
it the general iarket or dribbled away in
)its of per c "ent. and discount and small ex
ienses. Wln the sainpler has pulled out
is luck of cotton, and the weigher his,
mOd the railroad another, and so on, the
;reat complicated machinery of the mar
cut between New York and your cotton
ield will have taken a good deal of your
int. And this is all done at once in the
ale of your produce. Neither you nor the
myer being able to control the matter.
)on't leave yourselves at the mercies of
he great mill of trade and say, yOu can
nake the money easier than raise the corn
mod wheat and oats. llandle and house
lie articles at home at first cost without
lie rik of first putting them in your pock
-t in bills and then having them brought
ere fromt (iciagC. You can do this by
edneing your acreage of cotton. One
bird less of cotton on your best upland
boroughly pulverized, well manured, care
nflly tilled, will make you as much as the
lig acreage, with sonic time to spare to
ultivate your corn. to garner your oats, to
mow your hay and to take your wheat to
iil. Sow bountifully of oats this season;
;ow early. plaint a few acres of wheat.
Don't wait till winter months to do it.
l'lant whteat in October, oats and rye in
Septeiber. Make your flour. The mills
of the county will get ready if you will
mnake the wheat. Dr. Strickland's fine
Ilour mill is now getting ready.
Less politics, gentlemen, and more ins
Lerly aaageuicut of your fine agricultur
al resources, will make you the indepen
dlent mena of the land; will make the mner
rhants glad and aill of us better.
INFORMATION WANTED.
Every farmer in Pickens who is not in a
more prosperous condition now than he
was twenty years ago, will confer a favor
if lie will so inform this office. All infor
mlation will be held in the strictest confl.
dence. The assertion of the SENTINEL
that our people are more prosperous today
than ever before, is thuught by sonie to be
incorrect. If we arc nistaken, we want
to know it and iput the matter right. It is
important that we let the public know how
we stand. If we are not in a prosperous
condition, appearatices are deceptive. All
outward indications go to show that the
people of this county were never so solid
tinancially as at present.
The farmers are the people and if they
are in quicksand they know it and can set
the matter in its proper light on short no
tice.
T'here arc sonme few men in this county
whot have not inade money by farminag foi
the last. twenty y'ears, but they failed to gc
by that old adage thatL "he who by th(
plowv would thraive, amust either hold or
drive, and these nnsauccssful farmers baarc
donae necithier of these essenitiamls to the far
mner's thrift. Let the peop~le answer these
statemnents and show w~hat has been (lone
here sine the~ war.
TrfE IRAILNIOAD.
Ini sp)eaking of the proposed road for
Pickens, the Greenville News of the 28th
ult., has the followiang to say:
"Mr. Ferguason wvas asked ye'sterday b~y
a News reporter what were the prospects
for the ro-id. ie said they were good.
I be c'ontraet'>r spoken of is able and( will.
ing to carry out his proposition, andl as the
Pickents pleople have signified their willing
ites to acceplt it, hae will probably do so.
The roadI will run from Pickens to Easley
or somea othcr phoint on the Air Line. The
*MO.000 to he voted will gradle and prepare
lae round for the rails, and if the contractor
buil- .. e will have a bonanza. His only
cost wiil be in equippiang the road.
i hae ane wv road will be of alnost as much
advamtage to GIreenvill as Pickeans. Many
[Pickens propte do their trading here now
and the roadI wou ldg give thzemi double daily
traains to this city. People from the court
honse and 'ounaty could mnake short trips
here, tranlsact their business and return
without losiang much time.
TIhere is no( dloubtt abont the road becing
built, (daring the next eighatcean months if
our~~people will give it the proper eacour
agemnent, whiechithey wvill (do, as everyouic
feels a necessily for the enterprise.

ALMANACK
* Meiytemb1~er.
Whats the matter with the Sunny
South.
The puzzle solved at last.
All inust admit that there has been
is now, and always will be
Sugar in the Gourd.
But how to get it out, is the ques
tion, and here is the solution.
"The way to get it out,
Is to roll the gourd about."
That's it, and it takes a working
man to roll the gourd and in view o
that fact and the approach of cold
weather.
THIS ALMANACK
has opened a house full of heavy
weight goods and has added a greal
many new articles never kept before
The progressive age demands thiu
and we are bound to keep up withith4
procession.
Neither Ring nor Cliques, Higi
Tariff nor Low Tariff, the ins nor th4
outs, Ben Tillman nor anti-Tillman
nor even the good sub treasury man
can make this Almanack believe thal
starvation will ever blink bis eye at
Working Man. Work is what ii
takes, and in order to get our shar4
of the Sugar,
THIS ALMANACK
will try to be there in time to "scotch'
for the man who rolls the gourd.
Don't forget our Boots, Shoes and
Rubbers, Oilcloths, Table Damasks
and Doilies. Roll the Gourd ani
ask for what you want.
