piouthorn cotton Ao o n,Talk
To Newbry -armet.
'President. E. D. ,Smith, of thQ
South Carolina division of the Soxuth
pin -Cotton association, and Mr. V. H.
Hyatt, of the association, were in.
N.ewberry yesterday, and addrosed
ibout one hidred farmers and busi
ness men in the court house. Thee i
would no doubt have been a much
lai-ger attendanco but for the very
severe weather.
The speakers were introduced, by
President R. Xr. C. Hunter, of the
counity association.
skr. Hyatt spoke fi5st. Concert of
iction was what was needed by far
mIers, lie said. He talked f good
roads, saying that the! farmers were
mnying a mutid tax which amounted to
give times their state and county tax
's. Richland eounty had built some'
100 or 500 miles of good road.s in the
ast twelve years, of sand and clay. A
-ouity that had sand and clay, lie
;ai(l, had no excuse for bad roads.
yar. Hyitt strongly urged diversified
rarming. lie uniderstood, he said,
hat Newherry Amity was anl excep.
ion along tOhis line-tfhat mahy New
>erry farmers raised their supplies
it home. No man, he said, could sue
,ee(l raising only cotton. As to over
)roduction, too much cotton could not
)e made in the south, because the
touth could not make enough to meet
fhat ought to be the world's demand.
Ie touched on the subject of immi
,ration, saying ithat immigrants were
ll right if they were of the right
cind, but that the south ought to be
areful. He wanted to see the country t
komes beautified, the lands improved, I
Id the boys induced to stay on the I
'ain. 'le wanted the farmers to
)rovide conveniences for their wives
nd daughters. In a word, lie urged
he farmers to think more. Education
nd concert of action was the theme
>f his very excellent address.
Presiden;t Smith is an eloquent
peaker. What lie says goes home be
'awe it is te. le said lie hlad
poken from New York to Florida,
nd1i foin the lit (irande to tle At
. 'ic. and ie had never ceased to
X0o4der aI tle inidifference of the
;outhern peeople on this question. and
he oue (iestion that should more
hi1an all others. engage their atten
imn. For between the bagging aid I
i.s 4)In a hale of cottoil was every in
erest of the southland-homne, Clothes
'or wife and children, church, state
Iid business-and yet we, 16,000,000
ieople. with every interest wrapped
11) in that hale of.cotton, stand back I
mipiinelv and allow a half dozen gamb
ers on Wall street to say whether
Ve shall he prosperous or paupprs. t
'uccess, he said, must be according to I
he laws (if business, which were as
nexorable as the laws of health, or I
he Iws' inl tlie spiriIt worl. Com- 1
4iniationi was (iced's law of progress
uih poer and one( could not suicceed(i
m1t sidet oft it. The curise of thle SouthI
andi had been thle daimiiable dhoctine
if inidividulalismn. The southerni peo
tIe lad preach'ed the dhoctrine of cv
ry man for himself and. the devil for
I I hiumMi''. u''tih the devil had
bout11 goB thle whole push. Kerosene
uil, lie ssaid, cost. abou)it three cents a
talloni to he placed on the market.
People paid lthree cenits a gallon for
he inutrinsie valule of thle oil, and
lfrom 12 to 13: eent.s a gallon for]
Rockef'ellerm''s brain. The thing that-'
wvas the miatteri withI the southmea-n peo
)le was t hat they dlidn 't put enioiigh
>r'ain inito their busness. *As intelli
rence ruled any commodity, its value
vent up. The education of the south
in its own iinterest was the great
ieed. Mr. Smjith spoke for some
lime alonig this line, urginig concert
:f action by the farmers, and that
they stick to the Southern Cotton\ aM
sociationi. Hie held the close atten
tion of his audience, because lie made
i good, strong address, and because
his words carried ti;uthu.

on Mr. Sligh's faiendts as vell'n as matter
26. of news,- p ropounded to hin the foli
mas lowing question, and he answored it
-be vefy fully as follows:
me "Mr. Sligh, isit true' that yon have
xt defintely decided to make the race
for Judg-p of Probatef"
n ")nring last Friday and AAturday
kty I stated to friends that it was highly
110 probable that I would make the race,
3g. that I had the matter under consider
mint ation and hadt jrtty well made up my
mind to do so, and that they could,so
ro- inform all my friends. ' Since then,
,as I find, after considering the question
more thoroughly, thit such a decision
was not satisfactory to me, as it'
itli might result in doing myself and my
*t churches and the people of the coun
of ty a great injustice. Yousee I am the
lit pastor of two churches, and am ex
,l- Ipeeted to preach every Sunday and
, attend funerals, etc. I live thirteen
us miles from the county seat. I have a
.n little farm that is profitable to me
and I' have employed laborers to cul
tivate the same. I have no one to
t0- leave with my family for their pro
he teetion and no one to superintend the
S- farm, and tvith no prpspect whatever
or of getting any one to take my place
to in either cappeity. I am seventy-one
years of age, and like most people of
a my age, I am frequently not well. It
a will be expected of me, if elected, to
he be in the pfice eery day and I ought
to be at home nearly every night, and
C1 furthermore it will be expected of me
n to preach every Sunday and to at
tend to other duties connected with
be my church work. Under such circum
s'tan1ces, how could I h6pe to be able
i to do all that will be expected of me?
Will not, the strain be too great for
my strength, the load too heavy 'or
me to carry? Looking at the matter
or as above 'stated, when I think my
mind is about made up to make the
race, I find that instead of being sat
isfied, that my mind becomes more
les and more perplexed. No question of
a the kind has ever given me so much
6f concern as this one. I would like to
ed have the position, for I realize that it
ould greatly assist me in educating
my children, and also give aid in lift
he ing financial burdens from my miiind.
or I call find no satisfiactory way by
os which, I would be able to discharge
the duties connected with the posi
C tion, and at the same time, other du
lp ties just as bindinig on me. If the
t- mnatter, whelh I know is impossible,
ccould be postponed for nine monIths,
~te wh.en I could, if I so desired it, be
dlivilg, near to the county seat, I sup
at pos I would most gladly accept the
ve ~ poi ion ithl many thank-s go those
conferring its upon01 me. Loing at
the matter from every point of viewv,
it seems that a wise and foreseeing
providence has closed up thle wvay to
tJie position against me, and "I most
.eheerfully accept the same, and hero
sjby announce to myv frientls and all
oter coilcrned. thlat I will *not he'a
candidate for the pdsition. I am pro-.
Youndly thankful to thle members of
both of mhy chur ches and' to all. other
friends, for 't'heirwrnndhat
assurances oftheir support. No man
Sappreci'ates m~ore highly such tokens
ne of,kindness and friendship than I,
ofand I knowv thlat all such frie'nds will
ki givTe me credit for sincerity and hon
tr: -esty of purpose ini making' this de
-cition, aind will justify me i reach
:inlg suchl a concluson.' Maybe in the
pjrovidence of , a wise and good God,
th9se friends wvill some day have an
Eor opportunity of making life easier to
ar me in my old age. Since deciding this
et. matter definitely,\my mind Is at rest,
ny the .burden is gone."
