should win? Have we avoided foul Inn
gunge and the smutty anecdotes that ofter
characterize demagogues? Have our wards
and deeds been moralizers among the peo
pie with whom we have mingled, tending
to elevate enlighten and refine?
If we have been true men in this true
Mnce af the word we have not run in vain,
even though defeated. And wo should re.
joice that our beloved county has better nod
more competent men for office than ourselves,
nod we should strive to imitate their wisdom
and virtue. Hut, my brother, if wc
have been defeated by demagogues, then out
defeat is the more honorable.
ROTATION OF CR0P8.
Hy a scientific rotation of crops our
farms may be continually improved and
farming be made a pleasant and profitable
occupation. While traveling over our own
county I am glad to find that a few thoughtful
and energetic farmers arc perceiving that
a scientific rotation of crops may he made
far more profitable than without regard to
^ rotation. I verily believe that the pea, corB
rectly used as a renovator and fertilizer oi
our farms, is much more profitable than our
commercial fertilizers. The following is the
rointiou adopted by one of the best farmers
of our county on his farm which is mostly
upland:
First year, cotton; 21 year, cm, runniog
rows 7 feet apart witli a row of peas
between ; .Id year, wheat or oats, followed
with peas on stubble ; then cotton ngn<n.
This rotation gives four crops every three
years. His reasons for this rotntiou are
apparent on reduction to every scientific
farmer. Corn and peas are aasily produced
after cotton, the pen-vine being the best
of fertilizers. This corn crop may be follow.^^cd
by small grain before winter, which is
not the case with a cotton croD. Then the
wheat or oats, supplemented with pens,
leaves the soil well fertilized for cotton again.
The red nit and the pea are the salvation
for our farms, end if wo will trust in them
and use them, instead of these thousand and
one brands of H'fht weighted and bogus,
commercial fertilizers, that laugh at out
calamity and mock when payday comctli
then these worn hills of our dear old South
land, would rise up at all times and bless u<
with nhundiint harvests.

Mil. Kditoh.?Our Alliance at present has
a membership of 127 members, and is ii
excellent working order. Of course thert
are some that do net work as well ?s thej

trying to help them in every way to bcconn
true pullers, and then if we can't, we wil
let them kick loose and jump back into tin
big road and est tho poverty grass on tin
highway to bondage.
*A'e are not going to use trust jute bag
ging. neither will we use the 15 cts. coltoi
lagging, as that seems also to be under i
trust ; yet we will abide the decision ?
the County Alliance, ami we know it wil
not say use either of the above kinds o
bagging.
We hnvc the finest cotton crops in thi
section that we have had in many years
but fear that the continued rains will injur
it to a certain extent.
The Tillinanitcs are so thick around Kcl
ton that you cannot stir them with a stick
and with tlie exception of a few anti-Till
manites, who- we think are blind to thei
' own interest or are working in the interns
of others, we arc a silid section for Tillman
It is reported by some, that the Keiloi
Alliance put Dr. It. Little in the field as
candidate for the Lcgis'aturo, and as I :n
Secretary of that Alliance, and have a righ
to know, I will here slate that the charge i
entirely false?an emphatic fu'scliood. I d
not deny that Alliance men may have am
did urge l>r. Little to run for the Legists
^ire, hnt they did it a" indivi luals and no
as an Alliance.
Messrs. Win. (irifiin and Win. Faucet
furnished a first-class barbecue at Kcltoi

line word on your communication, Mi
Secretary, I wish to make. The Farmer
Alliance of our great country can be, am
ought to he poli'icil, but ;/< ? ' / partisan.
Then, since a dead limit on a Ireo takes a
much vtality from the tree ns if it wer
alive, so a dead me'es member of an;

ance. tQuality is fur better than quantity.

If your Kugitie. Boiler, Thresher, (Jin or
Mill needs repairing, now is I lie time to have
it done. Do not wait until you need I lie
midline, or until others send theirs, thus tti
crowding the shop and delaying your work, **
hilt send at once and avoid tlie annoyance q'
of being kept wailing. It lakes time to re- **
pair a machine properly, so that if every
one wails until his machine is needed, and
all send at once, some of you will cither he
kept waiting or I will'have to lose your
work. Now is the time, while business is
dull. Send in your work and have it done
promptly and well. Delays are dangerous.
