" The Democratic Club, of Belton, met last Satur? day afternoon for tho purpose of reorganization. Tho meeting was largely attended, and the moat enthusiastic that has neon'held hero slnco Ilia overthrow of Republicanism la tho Stato Govern? ment. Tho rumor that the Tillmanites of the Shady Grove and Tonoy Creek sections were plan? ning to secure possession of our Club and our rep? resentation, caused the opposition to make vigor? ous efforts to defeat these intentions. A meeting of Tillmanites was hold at Calhoun Thursday night. Mr. A. C. Latlmer and other local agita? tors delivered addresses. That their design was to capture the Belfon Club was plainly evidenced by the large number of Toney Creek residents who attended our Club meeting Saturday. The gathering was called to order at 4 p. m. by the retiring President. Dr. W. II. Todd. 145 names wore quickly enrolled upon tho Club list. Nominations for President were declared In order. Dr. Todd was put before tho meeting by the regu? lar Democrats. Tho Tillmanites opposed him with Mr. J. N. Sutherland. The vote was taken amidst much excitement. Dr. Todd was declared elected by a voto of 80 to 59. A scene of enthusi? asm seldom witnessed followed. When tho cheers of the victors had somewhat subsided, spectator Joshua W. Ashley, of Honea Path, sought to re? vive the drooping spirits of the "reformers'1 by prompting "throe cheers for Tillman." Tho cheers were given, bnt they were effectually over? whelmed by tho volume of applause which was sent forth to the tune of "anybody to beat Till? man," which was raised by a good "auti" of Bel ton. Dr. Todd in'accepting the office made a brief, but very appropriate address, which Tvas warmly applauded. The election of other officers was proceeded with. J..N. Sutherland was chosen first andD. A. Geer second Vice-President. Jas. W.Poore, who has ably served the Club for a number of ears as Secretary and Treasurer, was ro-elected. ohn T.

Williams. The Club adjourned without transacting any further business. Had the Tillmanites carried tho day, however, ihey would have heaped the Club's endorsement upon'tho head leader of their cause, and most probably upon A. C. Latimer for State Senator. But the tables were turned, the written resolutions were unoffered, tho pent-up agricultural cheers unexpressed, and above all tho Til) man movement and its office-seeking ad? vocates, to use. a' plain slang term, were quite heavily sat upon.

To one who is deeply concerned about the success of the farmers, in their efforts to reform the administration of the State government to their ideas of economy and justice to every citizen, it is very gratify? ing to see the unanimity with which they are endorsing the Farmers' Movement, as is shown by the reports of the State cam? paign Meetings held'so far. It is a cam? paign of education, and State affairs will be thoroughly ventilated before the cam? paign is over. The farmer has nothing to lose and everything to gain by the ventilation. The farmer is generally hard to wake np, but when yon get bis eyes open he is a hummer. -o The election of delegates to the State Democratic Convention by primary is one of the reforms that the farmers intend to carry out, unless defeated by the unfair use of party machinery by the opposition, the Greenville News, and other newspa? pers, to the contrary notwithstanding. One of tbe greatest causes of complaints that the farmers have had has been the manipulation of conventions against their interest, as they believe. And it shows a lack of argument to say that the farmer wants to retain tbe convention plan, when anybody can see that the primary gives him so much more power. And besides, the primary is right because it gives equal rights to every Democrat, and if a question is settled by a direct appeal to tbe people, it is always satisfactory. There are very grave differences of opin? ion among the Democrats of the State on governments.! policy and as it ia necessary for us to abide by the decision of the par? ty, it becomes the bounden duty of every true Democrat to see to it that each indi? vidual member of the party iB given the opportunity to render his decision on the matter, and have his vote counted, as is the right of every citizen of a free gov? ernment. Tbe farmers are not afraid to meet the opposition in convention, but as they are contending for what is right, they will continue to demand the primary, to elect delegates to the State Democratic Convention. The Sub Treasury plan is the fullest recognition of the economic truth, that labor creates all wealth, ever proposed in a legislative body.?Ex. -o Sam. Jones said it was the hit dog that howled. If this be true, the Alliance movement must have shot iLa ball with good aim, because the howl is deafening. -Ex. -o If the advocates of the Sub Treasury bill demanded exactly that bill and took a stand for that or nothing, objections on account of detail or constitutionality or practicability could be properly and hon? estly made. But tho advocates of the bill havo done no such thing. They present a condition admitted to exist, and-offer a remedy the best they can devise, and say, since you must admit tbe principle correct you are at liberty to change the provis? ions of tbe bill it you can improve them so they will be better calculated to secure the relief sought. The legislative com? mittee of the Alliance told the Ways and Means Committee of the House of Rep? resentatives that they would be glad to have them improve any of the provisions of the measure, keeping in view the one object of the bill, to stop the present discrimination against the farmer by which the busiuess of Agriculture is to day rendered unprofitable and depressed. In view of all this, the members of the or? der can put butone construction upon loug and laborious articles, making complica? ted objections to the bill on account of detail, and that is that gentlemen are compelled to trump up such objections as an excuse for their opposition to the measure. A guilty conscience is prover? bially a fertile progenitor of, ingenious excuses.-?National Economist. The McClammy Bill. House bill, No. 10553, introduced by Major McClammy, provides for the issu? ing to the several States ?30 per capita. The fund so issued to the States is to be divided pro rata between the various townships in the different Counties in the State. The money so issued to be loaned by the States to tbe people at 1 per cent, per annum, the interest to be applied to the school fund. This would give North Carolina $53,000,000 to be loaned on the real property of the State and give the State an annual revenue of ?530,000. No person is to be allowed the loan of this fund over $2,500. Preference to be given to those already mortgaged. The amount that would be due to any county, township, city, town or school district can be easily ascertain^ by tak? ing the total number of inhabitants and multiplying it by 30. It is believed that the Sub Treasury would give all the relief that this bill would, but if they fail to report favorably (as they will) for the Sub-Treasury, then we can say to the politician, We offered you our land, our produce, this was all we had to offer, and you failed to give us relief. If your candidates will not pledge themselves to tbe support of the Sub Treasury or any other form of relief, we will be forced to ask for candidates that will.?Progressive Farmer. i 4 o The following editorial in the Charles? ton World, of June 7, shows to Alliance men the importance of the crop reports that the Alliance is getting up now. Coming from the source it does it should be a stimulus to Alliance officials to help them preserve and make tbe reports as complete and accurate as possible: Although the cultivation of cotton on an extended scale in Central Asia was for a long time regarded as impracticable, and the attention given to the same regarded as a mere freak of the Eussian governmetit,yet the area under cultivation and the yield of the same is distinctly on tbe increase, and while tbe crop this year will be considerably below the Egyptian crop, yet, with the completion of the railroad which connects the cotton lands of Central Asia with tbe Crspian sea, and thereby enables the Russinii railways to draw the cotton to the Ru^isi. factories, we must note a falling off in ihr purchase of American cotton for thc<e factories. Such being tbe case, it would be well for the members of the Farmers' Alliance in tbe Southern States to arrive at a thorough understanding with regard to what their action will be with regard to cotton this fall. It will be remembered, by all those who were deeply interested, that Mr. Charles Crosland last year called attention through the columns of ihe Cotton Plant to the fact that it appeared last year, as if, while in South Carolina, cotton had been held back, in Texas it had been rushed to port and that had it not been for the strong position of cotton the South Carolina farmers might have suffered. As he said in his letter, if the command to hold is given again this year it should be seen to that all toe the line. Some months back and more, the World advised that an effort Bhoold be made to discover the area under cultiva? tion and tbe estimated crop which will be in a position to be held by the Alliance in tbe cotton States; for, as we have sta? ted, tbe publication and dissemination of statistics, indicating that a certain pro? portion of tbe cotton crop amounting to some millions of bales-will be held or sent to market in accordance with prices, would prevent speculators from cornering the crop, and the prices for cotton would represent what the cotton was worth to the cotton mills. The Farmers' Alliance in the Southern States is in a position to secure those sta? tistics, and the officials should see to it, that they are prepared and held in read? iness for publication. When they are published, together with the announcement of the determina? tion to bold, the price of cotton will open and continue with very little fluctuation at the ligure which the mills can afford to pay, and, with proper management, the crop could be eased off at what it is actually worth. By no other possible way could cotton speculators be as effectively blocked, and as far as the Southern farmers are con? cerned, it is a matter of considerable im? portance. With the same arrangement concerning Western farm products speculation in those articles would be checked to a great extent, and the farming class would soon be enabled to find out just abont wh.it their produce fairly is worth. With regard to cotton, this plan can certainly be carried out now, but if these preparatory statistics are not prepared, it will not be reasonable to expect cotton to be held back in one section while accounts indicate that it is being rushed forward in another. We say, therefore, that this is an im? portant matter and should therefore en? gage the attention of tbe officers of the Alliance in the South. Is Consumption Incurable.'
