Editor.?A? y?u and all tlio readers
of tho Uninn Timss vory well know, I am
not at all fond of writing; but in justice to
__ Mr. B. F. Bison and tho getters up of tho
occasion, I must say n word about the picuic
given in honor of Mr. Bison's echoM, at
Mt. Tabor. I enquired personally of
tho patrons " of * tho school, and
was glad to learn as I am also glad to r -port
that the prgross made by tho ohildr, . in
their various studies is mutually gratifying
to both teacher and. patrons.
Good country schools aro the great no. d
of the masses, aod good and efficient tcaci
era of our schools should have tbe encour- ,
agemcnt and support they justly merit, and
I know no man more worthy such ohcomogcraout
than Mr. B. F. Bison.
Speoohes were made bv Messrs. J. II
Sa*age, School Commissioner, W. McGowan,
Hon. C- C. Gulp, Probate Judge James M.
Gee, and County Treasurer, J. B. T. Scott.
The Bpoecbes were mostly ou education, and
all were delivorod in good style, and greatly
to the credit of the speakers.
The dinner was gotten up in good stylo
and was made up of eatables that would
tempt the appetite of au cpiam.

Prof. F. G. Shell, of Fin., and his accomplished

The outlook for a mammoth Cotton Factory

farmers were in the city yesterday, and a
JVeM/a reporlor saw and hoard of a number
f them who said that Greonvillo County
was not all for Tillman by a good deal,
bfany of them had started out with tho idea
of supporting Tillman, but have become convinced
that it is to the!r interest to vote
against him. They say that sentiment in tho
county is rapidly changing, and that tho
sturdy farmers of every section are pre.
paring to fight Captain Til'man to the bittor
end. A ATew.t reporter was told of seven
good farmers of the county whe met iu front
of a Main Street store Saturday to discuss
the situation. Kvey one of them lia l bee i
fir Tillman, but iu the last few days they
bad become disgusted and will now vote
against him and fight him till ho is nominated

THE ALLIANCE AND POLITICS. ?
A few Alliance brethren, together with
many oilier citizens who do not botong to '
the order, fail to comprehend the relationship
tlmt the Alliance bears, or should bear, c
to politics- These persons seem to think t<
that an Alliance co'leciivcly and individual e
member should have nothing to do with tlio jf
political questions and issues of the day. t
You will hear tlicin assert something like tl
this: "The Alliance lias done great. ?o<Jd
P
for the farmers ; but sho is going into poli- {j
tics, and her doom is sealed and her days nro n
numbered." ei
Such people do not know our duty as free 0
citizens, nor tlio objects of tlia fanners Alii- n
ancc. Wc who belong to the Fanners Alii- tl
nncc aro just as much entitled to our indi- c
vidual political opinions as ever; and when l)
we can make these individual political opinions
more potent for govd by joining togothor and
uniting otir efforts with good men of all pro- w
fesnous, for men and measures thnt will *
bTing tlio greatest btnefit to the most people, K
wo expect (hut Jar to he political. 11
The Aliinnco is not, nor never should ho h
and I believe never wi 1 be. partisan in poli- ^
tic;.. But te tho extent, that politics should 0
enter and permeate our Alliances as a factor, b
for tho upbuilding of tho agricultural interes?s
of our impoverished county, and the *
placing of the farmers interest of the lend n
on an equal footing with the other noble call- ?
ings to that oxtent, may tho good Lord help
us to be political.

Mr. Euitor.?Although the brethren may tl
not otten hoar from us, the I'.nckncy Alliance,

ecu that tbc predictions made by the Cultiator
have not failed in a single instance to
lie date of this writing. 'Jlie Rov. Irl R.

The Jovian period, Rov. Mr. Htoks says is
at the bottom" of our bad weather for tho
mst few years and will he responsible for its
outinuance during the present year. lie
xplaius by stating that tho planet Jupiter is
early ticelrc of cur years in going once
round the sun ; that is twelve years on the
artb is one year 011 Jupiter. As there arc
wo equinoxes every year?one every six
lontbs?fer the earth, so there are two
quiaoxes every Jovian year?0110 in about
iviji ali jvuis tor oupiior. I I1CSC Jlipi?r
equinoxes cause a gradual nnd continual
xcilntion of I lie electrical elements of our
urtli, atiil for Hie whole planetary system,
isting more than two of our years for each
quinox of Jupiter. This is what ho cells
le Jovian j>eriod.
According to his theory, iu which many
oople have the fullest confidence, during
lie Jovian period thero is a greater realiess
iu the meteorological elements ef the
mth to express themselves in every kind
f phenomena common to dur globe. The
ogulnr storm periods, caused by the oquioxos
of the smaller planets, and shown iu
to storm chart, arc not. obliterated or
hanged by the Jovian poriods arc found to
C much mere active and continuous ; they
ro eimply reinforced and intensified by the
tendy pressure of the Jovian period.
It is not to be wondered at, soys a recent

July, says Mr. Hicks, ought to begin with

It is almost unnecessary for us to speak

t Tho people of Union County know him, and
know that he is an eloquent speaker, a firm
and untiiuchiug advocate of ail tiie political kt
and educational reforms now asked for ht
and actually needed by the people of South ca
Carolina. .Six years ago, as a candidate for
the position wo now seek to place him in, he <1
advocated, almost nloue, certain reforms in ?
the State government but was defeated.
H Many of those reforms have been secured;
but there arc still important reforms lteces- ??
sary and we know no man better able to ?,
f, secure them for us than Mr. Whitman. j'1
