Mr. Tiiltunn said that the ilrs;. question which a proposition to ostabli-h an Agncuiturtil College st vrtcd in the mitt 1 of any one was." will it increase the taxes?" People were very sensitive on this subject, and it must bo remembered that the convention was not a Legislature, which c inhl impose a tax for thipurpose, but that wc would have to go back t> the people and lay these propositions before them, and induce theni to >end men the Legislature to carry out their views in thituatter. If they believe that their burden ot taxation was to be increased they would mo vole for it. We would have, therefore, t" ust a great deal of policy and "dodge round a little. l!y getting the money through the lax on fertilizers, the farmer would never know that he was paying it, and oven if he was pay ing fifty cents a ton <>n the fertilizer used, apart l'roiu the benefits he derived froui tin college, the purity secured in fertilizers woub in itself more than compensate him. ' Mr- Dargan sprang up with considernbb 1 earnestness and said ho abhorred an iudircc tax. and when it was deliberately proposed bj the recognized leaders of the farmers" nio\e niont to take out of tho pockets of the farnie tin .in y f>r any purpose with >ut his knowledge he would oppose it and advertise the farmers o . this purpose. Such a proposition as this wa wen caieuiuu,,i io mu me movement, an i 1 i was because he wanted this ctl'ort to succee' that lie was earnest its his protest against utlei ftnccs in this convention which were calculate [ to injure its success, lie protected that he wa actuated only hy the earnest desire to see sue cess attend the present movement. and there t fore he deprecated unytlrng which won! 1 an i 11gouize the other classes of citizens at such ill advised terms of abuse as had hecu directe - agaiu-t the officers of the government an 1 law . yera was calculated to do. The latter had hoc , always true to the interests of the farmers an t ready to help them. [A voice]: "They hav e been well jai 1 for it. lie replied to tfi- '? -aying with much -pirit that when our citizen i? had been haled before the Federal courts an their liberties exposed to the malice of a crui l> political enemy, the lawyers of the State ha L? nobly in the breach f o* their dclVn>e. an I t j hi- knowledge not a lawyer of hi" Futility ha ! ever tiskc I or received a d >l!ar for the scrvi< .
