for* the people willing that merit alone
should win? Have we avoided foul lan- i
"' gnage and the smutty anecdotes that often 1
characterise demagogues ? Have our wards
and deeds beetr moralisers among the people
with Whom we have mingled, tending
to elevate enlighten and refine?
If w* have been true men in this true (
ence ef the word we have not run in vain, <
even though defeated. And we should re- ]
jolce that our beloved county has better and
more competent men for office than ourselves,
and we should strive to imitate their wis- |
dom and virtue. Hut, my brother, if we
have been defeatod by demagogues, then our
defeat is the more honorable.
ROTATION OF CHOPS. J
By a scientifio rotation of crops our
farms may bo continually improved and (
farming be made h pleasant and profitable
cceupation. While traveling over our own
eonntv I am vlnl t? Unit ? f?? 'i? -Ul
All and ?nergctio farmers are perceiving that
* scieniifio rotation of crops may be made j
fat more profitable than without regard to (
rotation. I verily believe that the pea, cor- <
| rectly used aa a renovator and fertiliser of 1
our farms, is much more proAtable than our '
commercial fertilisers. The following is the
rotation adopted by one of the best farmers
ofouroounty on his farm which is mostly
upland:
First year, cotton ; 21 year, c rn, running
rows 7 feet apart with a row of peas
between ; 3d year, wheat or oats, followed
1rith peas on atubble ; then cotton again.
This rotation gives four orops every three
years. His reasons for this rotation are
pparent on reflection to every scientific '
4 farmer. Corn and peas are easily produced
after cotiorf, the pea-vine being the best
of fertilisers. This corn crop may be followed
by small grain before winter, whioh is
not the caso with a cotton crop. Then the
wheat or' oats, supplemented with peas,
oaves ioe sou wen reruitietl Tor cotton again. 1
The red cat and the p"* are the salvation
for our farms, and if we will trust in them (
and use them, instead of these thousand and i
one brands of light weighted and bogus, 1
commercial fertilisers, that laugh at our
calamity and mccic when payday cometh,
then these worn hills of our dear old Southland,
would rise up at all times and bless us
with abuodant harvests.

Ma. Kditoe.?Our Alliance at present bos
a membership of 127 members, and is in
excellent working order. Of course there
are some that do net work ss well as they
"should'In the Alliance harness, but we are
tryiog to help them in evtry way to become
true pullers, nod then if we can't, we will
let them kick loose and jump hack into the
big road and eat the poverty grass on the
highway to bondage.
We are not going to use trust juto bagging,
neither will wo use the 16 cts. cotton
bagging, as that seems also io bo under a
trust; yet we will abide the decision of
the County Alliance, and we know it will
not say use either of the above kinds of
baggingWe
have the finest cotton crops in this
aeotion that we have had in many years,
but fear that the continued rains will injure
it to a cortsin .extent,

and with the exception of a few nntl-Till^
mjBUos, who no think-gre blind tq their

of other', we arc a solid section for Tillman.
It is reported by come, that the Kelton
Alliance put Dr. R. Little in the field os a
candidate for the Legislature, and as I am
oocreMry 01 inai Alliairce, nod have a right
to know, I will here state that the charge is
entirely false?an emphatic fa'sehood. I do
not deny that Alliance men may have and
did urge Dr. Little to run for the Legislature,
but they did it as individuals and not
as an Alliance.
Messrs. Wra. Griffin and Wm. Faucett
furnished a first-olass barbecue at Kelton
last Saturday. Everything passed off
quietly, and we listened to addresses from
Messrs. McKissick, Peake, Little, Morgan,
Otts, and Miss Garner. All spoke in favor
oi reirencnment and reform.
Co*. Skct'tOoc
word on jour communication, Mr.
Seoretary, 1 wish to make. The Farmer*
Alliance of our great country can be, and
ought to be political, but nevrr partisan.?
Then, sincoadead limb una treo takes as
uiuoh vitality from the tree as if it were
alive, so a dead uselets member of any
Alliance should be out loose from the Alii^
anec. Quality is far better than quantity.
