^Vrog fond Chronicle*.
Mrs. Thaseigh has returned
hotod. Since she has been away it
has beeu almost i m possible for us
to ttnu'^ui. what, our
were sifting nnil doing. Hut now
wo can hear of the lirowoiks when
Mr. Kusser's Ire is raised, what
antics Mr. Tipsy cuts when he vis
its the lair of the sightless tiger,
and all about those little "scraps"
by which Mr. and Mrs. Brawl on
liven the dreary monotony of life.
Now the good ladies can tlud out
what Misa Smith's hat and Miss
Brown's dress cost, hear of every
thing that's said when G'holly
I)ood calls on Miss Wuspwaist. Mild
keep informed about all the pros
pective weddings.
On tho day set for the return of
the rule restraining us from report
ing tho proceedings of Judgn Noit
all's court, we appeared in court to
raakt) ou^jUH^rt?r. Wo argued at
length o\t-4Jj? liberty of the press,
and in eh/sing said thai not only
would tht public bo interested and
instructed by rending the proceed
ings of a court presided over by so
ahlu a judge, but that it would add
greatly to the fame of tho Judge.
In making his decision, tho Judge
said that tho press already had a
great deal too much liberty, that
whenever he wonted the proceed
ings of his court sent to the papeis
he guessed he could gel a better
scribe than Cal "Croaker to write
them up- Socing that he was go
ing to decide against us, wo asked
permission to amend our pleading.
Pulling a pint of O. I', wo advanc
ed a few '?arguments" from that
source. Tho Judge then dissolved
the injunction and earnestly re
quested us to keep Tho Chronicle
fully informed of the doings of
his court.
Tho next case wns that of Jake
Steelit charged with ^Jru ceny of
live stock. Pompey Tlogue and
\?lvo other "white people with black
skius" swore that they saw Jakw
kill, clean and eat a hog belonging
lo the said Pompev. Jake and
six others swore thai ho (Jake)
was ten miles away when the hog
was taken, and further, that I'omp
ey killed tiio hog himself. Tho
Judge ordered them all to retire
while he considered tho ease. He
said that while he didn't believe
#Jako stole the hog, there was a
sure way to liud out. Taking a
dollar and throwing heads mid
tails, lie called them back and sent
Jake to jail. Cal Croaker.
From Miij. Magi 1 1.
In the efforts to raiso tho price of
cotton by decreased acreage and
other personal action, we should
not neglect the more potent means
of raining prices by legislation Con
gress has made laws to give the
hondholditrg bankers double inter
est on theft investment, i. e. interest,
on their bonds and interest on their
bills issued on said bonds. The
bondholder deposits his bonds with
the government, and the government'
loans him 90 per cent of tho value of
said binds without interest. Then
why does congress refuse to receive
a deposit of tho farmers corn, cotton
or wheat, and loan tho farmer Ho
per cent of it* value free of interest
and thus enahlo farmers to hold
their crops until there is a demand
from consumers? Railroads and
banks appear to he favorites of the
government. In fact the belief is
general that these corporations con
trol the government. They receive
the paternal care of Congress and
are exempt from the burdens of tax
ation to a great extent. Tho usurer
comes next and monopolizes all the
money of tho country. They hold
8G00,000, 000 of mortgage* on the
farmer, a billion and a half on the
merchants and $500,000,000 on oth
er citizens. They demand a bank
ruptcy lqtw that will give them a
right to imprison their debtors be
?ides taking their property. These
usurers have influenced congress to
practically adopt the gold standard,
whereby their mortgages are doubled
m ?alnt^MS it will take twice aa
much iflrftton to pay the debt As it
roqUf have taken when the mortgage
wm given. Dr. fipahr the great
jferman economist says : "That one
seventh of our people own seven
eigthe of tl>e wealth of the nation."
Kx President Harrison says : "That
?ore thfto fonr billions of property
im the City of New Ytfrk, three and
? half billions in Illinois and an
cqasl proportion of the weafch of
wmMrand northern states is
iwmiji bf these powers of whom
we spent and pay no taxee. The
f*MW classes paj the taxes and
mBwf"
tiHorero and tin* railroad* pay little
or no tax to t the government
and receive nil ot itn pnternnl ear o
and protection.

aware ol the tact, thai national legis

further, that the tanners ol Ke rshaw

The following are tho reinsirksof
Mr. Richards upon his resolution :
Mr. President and <Tenfloinen of the
Convention: ? This resolution explains
itself, but 1 am not one ol those, howev
er , who believe that tin- farmer i" re
sponsible for all the evils which he suf
fers, ?r that the "hog and hominy" the
ory i* the panacea for all our troubles.
We lire suffering from previous national

Hut Sir. we can't expect relief from these
evils until the American p. ople Hg..nt

nin't L-xpi-ct relief, I repent, so long as
the National government is administered
as it is to-dav. in (lie interest of flu
classes against fit-* masse*. Hut while

tioiiH atleast for a time, w <* should not j

ourselves and x* i 1 1 1 redoubled energy t-? j

l?v avaricious greed and oppression.!
We should not rest content until wo
have made ourselves in.isfets of the * i t - j
nation and are able to dictate the i?ri< e j
at which our produce shall be marketed. I
The farinet toed* and clothes the world!

and in spite oi the fact that every other
calling in I i f ?? Irotn preacher to boot
black is directly dependent upon him
tor support, lie", the farmer, is the most
abused, oppressed and legislated pgainst
of any class of our citizens. We have
many sins laid at our doors; we are
charged with improvidence at ov.e sen
son of the year and with having produc
gjjjofi imicli st I lie other. Mr. Pros, and
Gentlemen, flic trouble is neither from
Improvidence, nor overproduction, hdt
from underconsumption. A condition
forced tipor us bv the great scarcity of
that indispensable medium of exchange
monft/. For while we havo produced *
?uiHcienoy o| both food and clothing the
-Wants ff the people are but poorly sup
plied, and we are obliged to endure pri
rations while there is plenty and to
snare staring oh In the face. These are
indisputable facta Sir, before which those
false theorie* matt crumble and (all
driving those who father them to seek
other ?ubtifugc4'uiTlt which to attempt to
tool the farmer. It doc# seem to roe
) ir, Prfi, to be to the i?torc*t of lho?c

and who ?r* not engafed In trvia* to

Now in conclusion Myr. I'h j. amlticn
tloun-n. h i me try to i/ipre** upon the
mimlfi o| our pooplp tmit while we l?uve
cd.*|l as a y ?*?;? t fraternity iiguiust le
galized robbery and ??|> j ? ?< >11 that i*
hist reducing our peopiw to u mate of
sei fdem and that while we bhou!d never
give up the light until our victory in
Voinplfte. "till we should not forget that
a great ileal depends open our individual
action an farmers. As 1 1 ? i ?>< resolution
says ; there sire other reforma that are
witluu one g tn r- 1? as individuals, and it i*
an undisputed fuel. I will only take
time however, to suggest one and that is
the intemdve system of farming. The
pin e (if cotton lists h'.'en reduced in the
I hi >\i six or eight years at leats one bun
dled per cent I'* the cjiuh"m which I have
mentioned. * et it coMn just as loueli to
produce a pound of cotron today, h*
when it wan valued at ten cents per
pound. Outlast farmers tell us that it
costs a' l< >n h 1 live cents per pound to
raise cotton,' so we are driven hv abnor
mal eonditions eitiieir to reduce the
costs of produeiion or quit the business.
Hut as cotton iiur only money erop
and' wo are forced to plant it. then there
is nn other alternative thsin to raise it at
a reduced cost. I am submitting no
theory hut an established l4H when f as
im r 1 that we can not oiilyMtfsfccn the
costs, t>. 1 1 increase production if we will
only intensify our farm*. I or examplu,
if a mm who plants twenty dive sioiTs to
the plow in eotton will reduce the crop,
to say, tvvrlve at res and will apply the
Kame siuiountof fertilizers to the twelve
acres that he did to the t'.v -nty-five, it
will lie hat a sluot time In fore lio will
gather sifl mueh from the iw'el .e acres ? ?
he did from the twenty-live. lie pro
duce..1; the name crup and at tin.* huiuo
time nave* one hundred per cunt. in la
bor to ssi v nothing of tin* increased val
uation ot ids farm. Labor, is capital
Mr. Pres. so this surplus labor or capi
tal can be expanded in raiding other ne
ccssary products ami in beautifying and
making comfortable our home*. I hope
'hat this con vent ion will adopt the res
clutiou that 1 have submitted and that
the people of our county will accept il
in l he spirit tlmt it is offered. I know
that I have imperfectly discussed the
questions, but I feel certain that if we
will only su t upon the suggestion that
great good will result. We will tie bet
ter able to withstand the onslaughts of
organized capital smd to nwait relief
fr<un an indifferent ami subsidized nn
tional government.
