It is more friendly to givo a man advice that is true than advice which is agreeable. We have not hesitated, cither in politics or practical subjects, to speak out, and while our position has sometimes been misrepresented, the the result has always justified the wisdom of candor and common sense. It seems to be the general impression that cotton bagging has not been satisfactory as a covering for cotton bales. It is high, costing something like thirteen cents a yard, while the shippers and exporters find it #necos?ary to tear it off and robale in juto. What the farmer Iojoi the exporter gains in weight.

Haskell a member of the Nat onal Democratic commit- , tec from youth Carolina, is at tho St. James i Hotel. He said last night that the political situation in his State pointed clearly to the election of Tillman, the candidate of the Farmers' Alliance, for Governor. In tho opinion of Col. Haskell, Tillman seas not a fit man for the place he seeks, but lie had taken advantage of the Farmers' Aldance erase an I had come out as the leader of the peop'e. Whit was still more important be hud captured the Demooratlo machine in South Carolina, and tho old-line conservative Democrats were confronted with the allertmt vo of either swallowing Tillman or elso f ? -rr g in tho role of bolters. <>.' the t?o evils Col. Haskell thought tho So..ill Carol na Democrats would probably nccopi Tillman on the ground that it is better politics to tho seeming integrity of the Democracy of the Slate than to croutc an open lire ich. Meanwhile it was to be hoped that the people of South Carolina would shikc olf the madness that possesses them now nod nivake to the necessity of preserving their interests. The policy of the Farmers' Alliance was to demand everything and promise its pos-dhle good will in return. in South Carolina Soptcniber 10," a?id Col. llaskel', "and nt this Convention a candidate for Gorernor will be nominated. 1 have no doubt nt all thnt Tillman will be this nominee. lie C'intro's the machine, which he gained while we slept and lie will mo it.

"With regard to the Slate debt I am much afraid that these people will nol he able to handle the matter. They have had no experience in public finance, and, under lite leadership of Tillman, they may do the Stale nn injury thnt will ho well-nigh irreparable. Still, I think it is wise to lot the people of South Carolina'go ahead and elect Tfllman." Judge Alexandor C. Haskell, of South Carolina, is also at the St. James. He docs not ngrec with Col. Haskell as to the policy to be pursued by the South Carolinians in lhe present emergency. He denounces Ttllman as a demagogue, and says that ho should ho opposed at every hazard, and although defeat were certain. He thinks that the respectability of the South Carolina Democrats demands this. Moreover, he does not regard the situation as hopeless. He believes that if ilie regular I) mocrats were, to .oiyauwe it iwnn tliey coma suu ticiciu Tinman, not- i of the State machine.

For about six weeks be was here eanraising thin, his bouie county, in order to defeat Hon. K. Q. Mills, our Representative in Congress, for renomioaiion, and he has utterly and signally failed. He and his active political Alliance friends attempted to frighten Mr. Mills into the support of that base political fraud, the sub-treasury bill ? the most, undemocratic of all measures now before the country, except Speaker Reed's election bill. Mr. Mills preferred defeat to abandonment of the principles for which he had contended during his life, and ro informed Tracy and his minions. They grew angry osteiw sbly, and declared war against Sir. Mills, passed resolutions in the County Alliance condemning Mr. Mills and dcc'ariog against him. These resolutions denouncing bim were published io the National Economitl and widely circulated. Harry Tracy, in a miserable conglomeration of nonsonsical gush, styled a reply to Mr. Mills, also published in the Economitt, denounced Mr. Mills as sn arrant demngogue.
