For the Times. Oaffney not >3 Bad u Bsp>rte<lGarrsar Citt, March 10, 1890. Permit 'me, Mr. Editor, to make a few corrections and say a word in behalf of our town and 'own authorities, in reply to the correspondent from Asbury, which ap- 1 peared in your lost week's paper. j I am sure, from the tone of the corrcs- . Iondencc, that it emanated not from prejuice, or a desire to do our town an injury, 4 or to give a thrust at "the powers that be," i but arose from incorrect information. I In the outset, allow me to say that I never, knowinglyr took a drink of whiskey or drank a glass of beer, and therefore the object which prompts me to make this reply is only to make a true statement of the matter. 1 do not proposo, and will not entor into a newspaper discussion with your Asbury correspondent, on the ovils of intemperance. My observation from New York to New Orleans teaches me that what your correspondent says of its evils are too true; but what I shall have to say is simply of our town and town council, and its effect on this place. Our town council, of which Col. A. N. Wood is Intendaot, and Capt. K. A. Jones, ' C. C. Harris, T. 0. MoCraw and J. C. Mabrjr, are wardens, upon a petition being presented, signed by a majority of the brrt citiztns of the town?men who stand as high socially, morally and religiously as those who constitute the mainstay nnd stake of any church in our State?granted licenso for the sale of spirituous iiquors, and fixe 1 the amount of license at $1,000, and applications were made by and license grauted to three tchile men?no negro. There was formerly ouo marshal, there ariT liow Hr?, not three. ' The first that I cter heard of our town being "a disgraceful bedlam," was through the columns of the Union Times. Certainly one would not cohjecture such a thing by walking aloog our streets. Capt. Jones has informed me that no more arrests have been mado since licenses were granted thin bo i fore, and not to much drunkenness as before. ^ I hare known of many (owns which were . "dry" in name, but alas! how few were "dry" in fact! c The law relative to the snlo of liquors ( from Drug Stores and "blind tigers" is not . defective, but where is one of the many . "dry" towns 1 could mention, where the law is carried into effect ? a I realise that becauso this is the case in f other towns that, of itself, is no excuso s for our town; but both ways have been tried here, and from the short time that c barrooms have been opeued. I. as "?!! 2; " any other unbiased, unprejudiced citizen, u would be bound to say the condition of tho ? town is no worse, so far as drinking goci. OtflWTy your ??HI. <lnna not consure the town council for fixing tho license t at $1,000. b Now, in conclusion, I will say, that if t there oould be a possibility to destroy every p drop of liquor in the universe, and prevent J any further making of it, I would join your V correspondent in carrying it out to tbo full V . K.,I ?r,?- oil 1 ll.inlr Ihonnlv Ir.m < ^ VAIVUt | UUD ?l??l nil) t muitt vuvuinj ? ?* V solution of the question is the one which the b "Asbury Alliance" has adopted; to resolve ^ not to touch it; to educate mankind to that high moral standard, whon they will be able 1 to say "no." I congratulate your correspondent and tbo Alliance for the step taken, and trust that the boycott will not be against Gnffney saloons alone. Bat before your correspondent writes k again about this place being "a disgraceful v bedlam," I extend to him an invitation to f v4sit it and see for himself, not listen to the rumors be may hear, or has heard. I need only mention the case of the "three black r crows." Come prepared to accept it as you t And it, nnd you will find itns quiet as any ( "dry" town in the State. Gleam. For the Times. i ,..JLJjL Whitlook's Reply to W. A. Wix, c ' 1 ' any m?t on thfr~ subject,"but a3 air. wix ) represented me to be so different from what somo of tbo best men of our county know me to be, and there aro others who do not ' know me, as I feel that duty to myself do- i manrla n nnnl v Mr. Editor, and citizens all, I believe, nay, . I am sure, that Mr. Wix is a good worker, and a successful nmnagor of a farm. In tho 1 first place he charges me with letting some other man write my replies to him and then use my name. I deny that charge, and can truthfully say that no man has ever dictated a word that lias been written on iny side of I thia subject. In tho second place, he sets me up as , being a Solomon. I do not claim to be quite so wise as ho that lived thousands of years ago, and did so much for his generation. i In the third* place, he snid that I was a ( man that never got between the plow handles, unless I made a mistake and staggered there; and further, that I would pass him in his field in the morning, ' sec one man I plowing, return at night and imagine that I could see 2 or 3." I was not on the road by his farm but once last year. Though I do not say that he meant to tell an untruth, I do say that he was awfully mistaken. He i must have bsen taking something that makes < 'men imagine things when lie thought he saw mc pass. Gentlemen, I deny all of the chnrgos in 1 bis article. In my first communication 1 merely asked for items of cost and of profits. | He gave them, but in his reply he made <charges against me that were not so. I have as high an ambition to bo a success- 1 ful farmer as any man, and just asked Mr. Wix those questions for information, so that < I might curtail the expenses and increase the profits on my farm. I did not wish to get into a controversy, but it seems that I have. 1 respoctfully tell Mr. Wix 1 do not drink intoxicnting liquor, therefore I do not stagger nor imagine what I do not see ; but what I do see I know. I am running 3 horses this year, and I ' expect better results next fall than last, and I hope you will liavo the sanio. Mr. Wix, my feelings havo not in the least been hurt, hill T Atnonf if I lintl Kriiil ns imioli fthrml you a? you hove about me you would have bcon imagining a few things. Let us close i this controversy good friends, knowing ( more about each other than when we began. 15.

O. L1TTLEJOHN, - Editor. ERROR CORRECTED In our last week's article on the "man and lis two wives," on the eighth line from the >ottom we nicunt to say follic/et, not frailties. Self respect has no frnihies. It is good hrougbout and must not be confounded with iclf esteem. Self respect is oommeadible, jut self-esteem is always contemptible. SYMPATHY- Z Sy mpathj (or sun and pathos, n feeling with) i .1 noble attribute. Who of us could >ear life t rial's and sufferings if it were not or the sympathy of friends and loved ones. Ye have a right to cast off part of the load >n our friends when our sorrows are great. To receive the l>ad is charity. Life, creation, ?ur very existence means work, and suffcrng. We ought to work; there is no lasting luosliine without it. We all must also suffer. PI 2. .1 AL .f ?!_i 5.1 A mi I Liiviu lo uu uvpui ui virtue wunuiu 11. xiiese | wo essential elements of a victorious life tontinually demand sympathy, backed by diarity. llut for a human boing to work topelessly without sympathy, was never orlained of a beneficent Creator. Surely Qod lijpself never worked in that frame of mind. iVhcn you or 1, my brother, my sister, find a ellow creature attempting to work on thnt dime, then our christian charity, which is >nly sympathy intensified, should come in o give him n lift. And the end of that syui>athy is not reached when the suffcror is nblo o simply support himself, that none be burdmed further with him ; but not until he can leedqylight enough to work cheerfully and shea life again becomesbeer.tblc, and where he man ceases to sutler more than to enjoy, 'overty, sorrow and discipline, will never :ease their ministry on earth. But whero lod-given and God-used sympathy has her terfect work, there can be made in every ifo more sunshine than rain. This is a rcaonab!c goal. Though time is the probation or eternity ; yet it may be more glad than ad while it lasts. The very essence of hristian charity is a lone work and love for rerkcrc. Then to bo nappy, dear reader, let is see that all arc working cheerfully. THE ALLIANCE AND F0LITIC3. w. * few ?r two classes of extromista elonging to our order. Oho class affirm hat the AUianco should nominate and suplort an entire independent ticket. The other ilsss assert that the Alliance should (as a tody), have uothiug to do with politics?yet hero is a middle ground that seems to us to io more commendable and just. Our order loesnot embrace (by auy moans) all the good nen, nor all the avocations whoso interests teed protection and wise legislation. We hould demand, but only demand, our just mure id lue reprcseniauve nans 01 loumy, Hate and nation. We should support men vho vrill frame and administer the best laws or the general good. ?nd not expect or u?-_ ire our own elovatiou to the injury ot honest neu in any honest calling. If we ha*o beter men in our Alliances to (id our offices ban we can find outside, he is a traitor that vill not support them. If we have a man n our Alliauces that can fill an office equally is well as an outsidor, you ought to, and it But if we find a inon outside our'ortfff 'VMMt will make a better representative for an tionest people, wc arc net true men if we refuse to,support such a one. My brethren, let it be ours, and let us show to the world, :hat our motto and aims are, "justice to all ipecinl favors to none." FINISHED V8 UNFINISHEDThe little prefix, "un," joined to tbe wcrd finished means a great deal, and makes a vast amount of differeuoe to tho farmer in the resources of his farm. The finished products of our farms, which ?rc ready for the consumer or user, when llioy leave the farm, bring a good margin of profit between the producer and consumer. Tho unfinished prolucts of our farms are low down in price to the producer, but not to the consumer. And right hero is the main cause of tbe prevailing agricultural depression. Wo place upon (lie market too much of our produots in an unfinished state, riic majority of our farmers depend, almost entirely, on our cotton crops to buy our money with, and tbe principal part of that money is used to buy articles that might have been giown and finished on our farms ?r among ourselves. Did you, my brother, ever think what a vast amount of profits are made on the manufacture of your cotton? After you spend almost 13 months in a year, in the production of your cotton, you will take a bale weighing 600 lbs. to market and perhaps may get 10 cents, which is $50 for tbo bale, and the manufacturers in a few hours will offer you the same cotton, manufactured into the cheapest cloth, for not less than $200, which is 400 per cent profit. In quotations of the market in a western city we find oats at 15 cents per buseel, oatmeal 7 cents per pound, making 2lbs. of oatmeal buy 321bs. of oats- Wheat at 80 cents bushel, and for the best patent flour we must pay $6,00 per barrel. You see, wo ?ro selling our unfinished farm products to combines, trusts and monopolies, to be manufactured in their patent machinery by patent processes, and wo are to buy at tko mercy of soulless powers. No, my brodiy, our only hope is in ourselves, and the remedy is at cur doors. Put dynamite under the mountains of improvidence that hover around your hoaes, and hurl them to atoms, and yon will be surprised how many finished articles that you have beon spending your hurd tamed money for, can be producod on your own farms. Your smoke-house, granary and corn-crib, as if touohed by a magic waud, will migrato from tho distaut west, and nicoly nestle around your own yard. Home raised mules 1 will occupy your stables and till your fields. Then our wives and daughters, Brethern, who have lived such eclf-sacrificing lives will ' have the means to beautify and adorn our ' homes, and to rido to church in a nice buggy or carriage drawn by a fat homc-rais- i ed horse. 1 Am I visionary? Not at all. You just { wako np to your surroundings, and take ] in the possibilities within the reach of an 1 energetic wide-awake farmer. Lay aside ' pour false pride, and work with honest j hands for honest reward. Make for sale the thousand and one things that a thrifty ? farmer can raise. Always bare something . to sell every time you go to market or town, and try to let each little artiolo bo finished, of the best quality and put up in the most attractive style, and then you wilt bo ouro to get the highest prioe, you will bs surprised how rapidly the dimes will make you dollars; and your treasury will then beoome a legal tender for all your necessities. - For UmTuubb. The Howard School. The total number of pupils enrolled this term is two hundred aud uiaety, and would have been more, if accommodation could have been secured. As it was, we were literally packed, like sardines in a box. Our building is sadly in need of repairs, but the Town Council bus kindly agreed to repair it for us, and work will begin at an early date, as part of the material is already on the ground. < Wo hope it will be repaired with a view to the health and coufort of the pupils, as both these essontials were overlooked in its con- | struct'on. We are under iuany obligations to the Council and Trustees for the kindly interest they have taken in our school, aud we will prove that the cducatirn of the negro is not simply an experiment. If all the colored schools have made as much improvement as ours, in the past two terms, we neod not care a straw whether the Blair Bill becomes u law or not, aud yet wo have not attained the best results, for we have entirely too many pupils for successful work, there being only two teachers.
