heed the trumpet sound when you are
called to meet at these farmer rally
meetings. Go to the railroads and
meet your speakers and car. them
out to your homes and take care of
these missionaries which will save
these servants from $2 to $3 per day
and won't cost you much.
Farmers, you are a weak, unimpor
tant, good-for-nothing sort of people,
unorganized; but the most powerful
craftsmen on earth when you are or
ganized.
, Give me thirty good sturdy farmers
that will stand firm, shoulder to
shoulder, and we can carry a great
log that five men coull not shake.
Give us one million good farmers
carrying upon average two bales of
cotton each and we are independent
of all ine cotton bears and bulls on
earth.
Farmers. get together now and line

the farmers won't stick, then the
farmers will not stiek; but if you all
will stick when there is somethihg to

CHOSEN AFTER REJECTION.
Interesting Adventures of Some Fa
mous Books.
There used to be an old supersti
tion that a flash of' lightning would
turn milk sour. This is the effect
produced upon a young author by the
rejection of a manuscript by a pub
lisher. As the author becomes older,
more successful, and more experienc
ed, such rejections do not discourage
him, and if he sighs at all on these
occasions the sigh is one of commis
eration for the publisher who cannot
appreciate a really good thing when
he sees it.
The owner of a rejected mauseript
is in good company. for many of the
more celebrated works of literature
have been summarily returned to theirI
authors by unappreciative publishers.
Few books published in the United
tates have yielded to their publish
ers and authors larger returns than
'Ben Hur.'' by the late Lew Wal
e, and yet the manuscript had been
eeted by nearly every first-class
ublisher in this country before it fin
ally was accepted by the Harpers, to
whom it was submitted for the second
time.
"Rejected Addresses'' by Horace
and James Smith, waas offered to Mr.
Murray for twenty pounds, but refus
ed. A publisher, however, purchas
ed it, and. after sixteen editions. Mr.
Murray gave 131 lbs. for the rights to
issue a new edlition. The total amount
received by the authors was more than
$1 .000.
