B. S. DINKINS, Editor.
-TEHALF WAS !O Tf U'
Ion. James E. Tiu(
ication published in
charges us with n
last weeks' paper, iIs
ed before the Ag. ic U'
Saturday the 21th
this commiif':'O. "a hx e -s
recapituladion of LIs
meaning words: eTlls trsent
"recognize the foro. ?nd no tmst
"ing will construw L nean an on
-slought on any class z.r town." Thus
he insinuates that the misrepresenta
tion was also wilful.
We be'ieve Mr. Tindal will coUcec.e
the fact, that an editor has the un
questioned right to express his opio
ions on any public questions before
the people, even if the subject treat.
indirectly of the farmers' movement.
Then he could only have been misrep I
resented in this paper by being incor
rectly reported. We most positive
assert that we heard him give utter
ance to every exp)ressin attributed to
him; and we are swuained by a nun-:
ber of gentlemen who were present
and heard him. But, althoug4 Mr.
Tindal has left out of his recapitulation
the language accredited to him, he
has not denied saying it, but rather
aeclares, "I never thought or intended
"at any tie, anywherc. to convey any
"such'impression.'' What he though t
or intended, was not for us, but what
he actually said, was for our considera
tion. Now there is but one iuference
to put on this speech : "the people
of towns and the politicians are grind
ing down the farmers," and that is, that
they are the farmers' enemies and op
pressors. Now if Mr. Tindal did not
itend to convey such an impression,
it is his fault, and we are not to blame.
We did not misrepresent him. He
said mor', much more than was pub
lished. His speech, from this stand
point, was an arraignment of other
classes for the impoverished condition
of the farmers, and as such we con
demned it. The Tinus is yet to be
convicted of misrepresenting anybody,
much less one of its own citizens.
In a private letter received from
Mr. Tindal, he says: "I am afraid you
"are not in sympathy with the farmers
-in their struggle for anything which
"would improve their condition es
"pecially that they should organize."
u'Or surprise at receiving this from
Mr. Tindal is only Equaled by his
charge of misrepresentation. Mr.
Tindal knows as well as every other
-reader of the Tiwws, that we have, evei
since assuming control of this paper,
used every means in our power to i
duce the 'farmers to interest them
selves in their~ agricultural association.
Time and again ~te have labored to
show them that organization was the
greatest means at their command for
their enlightenment and advancement.
Clumns of editorial prove this. The
people of Clarendon know it, our road
ers know it, and none know better
than M1r. Tindal, that we favor an or
gaiztio of the farmers. Under
these circumstances, we fail to appre
ciate Mr. Tindal's fears as to our posi
tion towards the farmers. We advo
cate letting the farmers have what
they want. Give them an agricultur
al college, cxpeiimental station, and
more if thov desire it. If they are
benefited,~we will prosper; if they
row rich, we will thrive too. But ad
vocating the farmers' movement does
not debar us fron1 protesting against
a wrong. We are hand in hand with
Mr. Tiudal in his efforts to organize
the farmcrs but condemn the means
he resoried to in his speech to accom
plsh their organization-by an abuse
of the "powers that be."
If Mr. Tindal had confined his ad
dress to his published report, we
would not have said a word about it
except in the highest praise. A~nd
now, we endorse everything contained
in his recapitulation.
Charleston is to have ai new doily
paper. Mr. gohn Meli e will be the
proprietor, and Mr. . A.B Williams,
of the Greenville Da'b: R-- is to b e
the editor in chief. The paper wmU
have plenty of financial backing and
talent. The prospect is promising
that the venture will be a success.

After the discussiom ol Mr. Des
Champs' experiment, I took occasion
to point out the impvrtaiuce of an Ex
periment Station, and explaincd the
legislation on the sabject. I then ex
plained the object and the whole aim
of the Farmers Movement-as
First : to secure theorga:.int'ion of
the farmers of the State iu a iepre
sentative Association, under tie gi-d
ance of a representative Board
Agriculture.composed of our wisest
and best farmers.
Second: To inspire our people with
more general appreciation of the nec
essity of education and to establish
such educational institutions as will
secure the progress and development
of our agriculture, and the future pro
tection and elevation of the farmers.
Upon the importance of a farmers
rgauzathon, I said: I- the ;ieai
struggle of life, all other great indus
tries are organized and have their as
siiations. Banks, Railroad corpora.
tions, commerce, manufactures, tc.,
struggirg to advance their own inter
sts and expecting every other to do
or itself i!.e same. The farmers can
not possibly hold their own ma this
reat race without organization and
ducation. The distinguished Ohioan,
. H. Brigham, in a speech to the
~armers of Ohio, said: '-If the farmers
'fail to organize, the future o:f agricul
'ture will be a repetition of the experi
'ence of older nations; agriculture
will be despised, neglected. unneces
'sarily burdened, and finally sink iL to!
decayv and ruin. Although we far
outnumber those in every other in
'terest, this does not relieve us of the
'recessity of organization, for numn
~brs without it is an element of weak
'ness rather than strength."
Senator George, at Washington in
speech said: "The farmers without'
oraniz. dion can no more maiain
'themselves in the face of othert org.an
'ized indusa4?s. 4han raw militia
'could withsa.ad a well disciplined
'army." Out Con missioner of Agri
ulture in the Apri1 number of the
igricultural report, quotes the asser
ion and fully endorses it. It is js
what I have contended for year..
When we see almost athe entire farm
ing population weighed down with
debt; their childrenflrowmig up with
out education, and thei statistics show
ing that while there has been an enor
mousicrease of weda in the State,1
it tas been in other industries and not
in farming; while ouir promising boys
who do get education, are leaving ti~e
farm for any other pursuit -we might
justly pause and consider. If theI
farmers continue to neglet education
as heretofore, and neglect organiz:
tion and ev-ery le.git.imate means ofre
storing equal success~to' their bu.'ine ,
as others have secured, they rout L i
evitably sink lower and 1ower~ inscil
business, and political iuf~luece. ICere
I pointed out v.Lat could and wuhi
come upon us. should ::l the education
and organized forcs of socety, bi-lor:g
to other pursuits, by citing the condi
tion of agricuLlturle in a certain part of
Eurone, where the owrners of laud ad
all gone to the city and left itsei'ltiva
tion to a most helpless and ignorant
peasantry. I have been muclh abused
for my opInions. A man told me,
"They have given you the devil for
some months"-I presume for the
farmers movement- Who "they" are,
I have no idea, but no man in South
Carolina has expressed himself ri-: C
ull and frankly. to the public. I ad
voaed my opinions on the stump,
publish-'i them in full in the papers
nihmy name attached, and conte-nd
ed for them emtnestly in the legisla
ture of the State. Tbc press was open
to all to express their dissent. Upon
the stump they could have been re
plied to and the people had the pow
er to defeat thenm, for nothing was
concealed. I made no war upon any
class or individual; nor does the farma
ers movement oppose or antagoia7.e
any class of citizcns, as somec, ost
unrcasonabiv try to circulate. A ft iend~
said the other 'day that some would
like to join the society but are afraid
