quest from , ono to tho other to'joiu,
which brought on tho discussion. The
outsido minister gave as-his reason for
not joining that ho did not befiovo in
-tho Jiible in tho public school, as he
did not believe that it could bo road
. there, without sectarianism. lie tliouubt
- that if tltfi' Catholics could gain a ma
jority they bad a i itch t to rule us. The
other minister explained that tho
..-J.nniors?did not- wish -sectarianism
taught in tho schools, but wishod tho
J3iblo, which which was the recognized
standard of all Hie best moral and civil
laws, should bo read to tho rising kou

did not commit himself, but said he

As provident of the Farmers' State Al?
liunee organization of this Statu, I have
been requested by numbers of the rep

to take tho initiative in calling a meet
iug of tho fanners of tho Southern
States, with a view of suggesting some ,
action in tho future, looking to
tho regulation of tho acrcftgo of
cotton, also to discuss tho plans and
methods of marketing tho cot
ton crop so that tho produeors of this
great staple shall rocoivo tho real value
of tho crop, and not ho forced to sacri
fice tho crop by unfair combinations,
together with tho manipulations of the
gambling cotton exohaugtvjof tho coun
try, aided by the unjust Accumulation
of all tho money of tho country at one
center at tho principle time of tho year
when our cotton is going into market.
With theso objects in view 1 desire to
request tjio cotton growers of tho var

"\Voll, now, lot us look around earnest
ly, prayerfully, In a eoutinon-flen.mS way,
and 800 what wo can do for ourtjeiieiailon.
First of all, l it us hoo to it that, as far as
wo en ti , tlioy havo Onontjli to eat, 'l'lio
human brnly Is bo constituted that Ihrco
times a day a body neod.s food as much as
a lamp needs oil, us inueh as a locomotive
needs I'uol. To meet this want (tod has
girdled the earth with apple orchards,
oranfjo prove?, wheat tlelds, ami oemma full
of tlsli, uiut prairien full of cattle. And
notwitliAlomlliiK thii, t will umlortako to
nay that tho vast majority of tho human
family nt'O flutreriuff oitt^or for inolc of food
or tho right kind of foT>d, Our civiH/.u
llon Is nil itskow, and (tod only unit not it
right. Many of tho k real oh t cslatort of to
day havo boon ihullt out of tho blood and
boaos of unic<[uitod toil.
"l>on't sit down nt your tnhio with flvo or
niv ooursas of nhundnnt supply and think
l.othi.iK of that family in tho next utreet
who would tit 'to any ono of t host) live
courses hot ween soup and almond nuts and
feel I hoy ivcra in heaven. Tho l<i <> k. of the
right kind of food is tlio cause of inuoii of
tho druukonnoit.s. Aft<>r drinking wiiat
many of our grooors ca'l oofTee, Bwoetonod
with what many call sugar, and outing
what many of our butoheru call meat, and
chewing what jrjany of our Int'ter.s call
bread, many of the luiioring classes foe.l ho
miserable tlicy are templed to put into their
nasty pipes what tho tobaooonist on lis to- "
ItaocO, or go into Iho drinking saloons for
