we have a monopoly on I lie produc- i "*<l

>o'v. M >\ Smith said that the value!'11
I col ton depended upo.i I liree i
thir.vs: first, the demand for il : sec- i
ond, the cost of product ion, a^id third,
.he intelligence wliic'i wa> hack of |o
the cotton, ('olton was in competi- M
I ion w ith three lahric-'s, flax, wool m
and silk. The total production from "-o
llie><' thr'e lahrics would not clothe! pn
more I ha i one-third of the people < \
who wore clothes, tiierefore. il was pi
necssary to h: \e the cotton in order m
to idol he the people and in order to (mI
jet what co| Ion i- worth if you would |\take
the price of -i'L flax ami wool
_\.m would reach ihe loiudusi hi thai p,>
c; l!mi was worth at least sixty-live mi
cenls p? i pound. The reason we ] j,..
were not ut'ltiiiii fifteen cents, even, j to
is because Ihe Southern farmer is j ,,n
standing here as the vassal slave of |o
Ihe rest of the world, 1<>
He showed that no other business lit
could be successful if it did not count fr
the cos! of production and the hand- wi
liny and then had a profit, but" the to
farmer simply yrows bis cotton with
out countiny what is cost him and
then bronyht il to Ihe market and
carried his sample around asikuy the ,
buyer what he would yive for it. Any j ^
morehnnt or other business man that
undertook such a plan would soon yo* ^
farmer simply yrows his cotton with- j
the farmer, he said, was that he had
been workiny his muscle too much
and not workiny his brain enonyhv
Mr. Smith is endeavoring to or- ^
eani/.e w :irtdious< s and uet in position
so that Ihe fanners may be able
to hold their cotton and demand for
it such prices as will yive them not
only the cost of product ion but a
fair and reasonable profit. His clos- ^
iny yemnrks were a most eloquent
picture of the Southern cotton yrower
and many of his hearers were ^
much affected. There is little doubt
that his address will result in much ^
yood and a better oryani/.ation of
our farmers. j,

I Dr. (I. A. Set/.ler spent last Mon
). day in Columbia. He is interested ii
the new bounty government bill foi
t\ this county, which has been introdnc
ed into th" legislature. Tt?; senti
i\ ni'ent. generally in this section of tin
county seems to be in favor of tin
). new scheme.
Mr. John Sullivan, of ITonea Path
i' visited friends in Pomaria during th>
last von pie days. He seems to find i
a very attractive place.
Mr. F. Ii. Feagle resigned his posi
t tion as policeman about a week aye
and Mr. doe Alewine, of Silver Street
was elected to succeed him. The peo
* pie of the community are irlad Ii
I have Mr. Alewine here, and they be
^jlieve that he will discharge the dutie
of the posit ion ^fearlessly and efficient
). Iv. Mr. Feagle will resume his posi
tion as clerk for the Set/.ler Com
-) paav, wh.ere he will be ,ulad to se
his friends.

The vote of the senate last, week ii
^ refusing to adopt, the resolution roe
ommended by the governor with rof
erence to the dispensary commissior
after they luul so am?ndnd the reso
lution as ajiparenlly to remove al
objection to it, was a remarkable ac
lion. The sentiment of this pommnn
it.y rather approves the vote of th
). house. The resolution is understoo
|here as not being intended as an en
dorsoment of everything" which the V
commission may have done, but as an T
- effort to strengthen the position of J
Hie St..te in the fight which is being
made against her to take the settle- ^
nu'iif of I ho dispensary affairs out of s
> her hands. The revelations which are I
- 'being made as a result of the commit-, J
T tee's effort? are interesting, to say a
- 'the least, an J they should not he shut r'B
I off until the entire affair has been I
- probed to the bottom. There are
3 some excellent men in this community E

system, and they real'/e clearly
