The Farmer's Convention.
ISncciul to the News and Courier. 1
Kduefikld, C. H , April H.?A county
convention of the farmers of Kdgefield
wus held in the Courthouse to-day to appoint
delegates to the State Convention
on the 29th. The representation from all
sections of the county was unusually
large, embracing many of our most progressive
farmers and prominent representative
citizens. Capt. Tillman having
long since won the esteem and confidence
of all Kdgefteld by his intrepid
bearing and wise counsel in support of,
home rr.le and reform in the memorable
campaign of 1876, and each successive
campaign since then, our people verj'
naturally, when he inaugurated the
movement for a farmers' convention
some months ago, gave it their enthusiastic
and hearty approval, knowing full
well that they could afford to endorse
any movement in th'e direction of 'reform
and for the betterment of the farming
interest of the State which was being
endorsed and advocated by Ren Tillman,
the people's man, the farmers'
friend.
Hon. W. J. Heady was elected chairman,
and Messrs. O. F. Cheatham and
T. A. Ilainsford secretaries. Mr. Keady
addressed the convention in a ft?%v ?nir
E
,ited and eloquent remarks, and fully endorsed
the movement. The following
gentlemen were elected delegates to the
State Convention, vix : Messrs. A. D.
Hates, C. W. Kinard, l)r. D. C. Tompkins, )
\Y. J. Talbort, and li. J. Bauknight. Alternates
: J. C. Swearingen, S. rV. Williams,
J. 11. Kdwards, W. Ready and
T. H. Rainsford.
Hon. W.J. Talbort offered a Herics of
resolutions, one of which was as
follows :
ltexolved, That we solemnly avow
that our object is not to create any dissensions
or trouble within the our solid
Democratic ranks, but simpty to unite
our farmers for the protection of their
interest. <
The resolutions were seconded by Dr.
Timmertnan in a forcible manner and i
were unanimously adopted. Capt. Tillman
delivered an admirable speech. 11

A SCHISM IN TUB FAIUFIKI.l) MEKTIXtJ. 1
Winnsboro, April 5.?'l'he farmers' (
" meeting here to-day was not very largely
attended. Quite a contest arose as to f
the composition of this county convention,
some maintaining that it should be (
composed of those otily who are en- j
gaged exclusively in agriculture, and
others that any interest in farming should *
constitute a right to a seat. After tmmh 1
discussion a resolution was adopted ask- ^
ing all to retire who were not engaged
exclusively in farming. About half of
those present then left the room. The
following were then unanimously 0
* c
elected : President, Mr. S. Hall; secrotar)',
J. M. Galloway. Delegates to

SUMTEll OPPOSKI) TO TILLMAN. j
Sumter, April 5.?Pursuant to a call
by the president, the Sumter Agricul- a
tural Association met at Music Hall this v
morning lor the purpose of considering ^
the propriety of Rending representatives t]
to the Furiners' Convention, in Coluni- ft
bin. on the 39th inst. The meeting was s,
addressed by several of the most promi- rj
nent farmers in the county, all of whom n,
were unanimous in denouncing th& n
course proposed to the farmers by Mr, ^
Tillman. It being certain, however' g
that the conrention would he held, it ^
was agreed that delegates should be j(
sent. If the association did not take e]
this step the local olubs in the county C(
wnuia ??ena delegates, and each of these t
being the representative of an independent
club, it is possible that the sentiment
of our farmers might be misrepre- ^
sented. After considerable discussion, ^
the following gentlemen wore elected us
delegates : Hon. E. M. Cooper, ltichard
J. Manning. J. H. Wilson, II. R. Thomas tr
% el
and 11. M. Cooper. Although the weather ^
was good, only about twenty-five inein- tn
bers were present at the meeting. Itis 01
very evident that the farmers of Kumter m
County have no nympathy with tho Till*, tl
man movement.
CLARENDON UNITED AND ENTHUSIASTIC.
Manning, April 5.?The Clarendon
County Agricultural Society met to-day
and elected the following delegates to
the farmers' State Convention : D. W.
Brailsford, James 15. Tindal. \V. W.
Kichbourg, It. K. McFadden. S. 11.
Chandler, T. J. Cole, L. H. Deschamps,
P. M. Player and James E. Davis. The
convention was very harmonious, not a
word of opposition being spoken against
the State Convention. The farmers of
this county are thoroughly in sympathy
with the Tillman movement. Severul
interesting addresses on agricultural
subjects were made before the society
A heavy rain fell here this afternoon.
NO POLITICS FOR KERSHAW.
Camden, April 5.?A preliminary convention
of farmers was held to-ilnv f.ir
the purposes of fixing a day upon which
a general farmers' convention of the
county should be hold to send delegates
to the Farmers* State Convention. Dr.
I). C. DeSaussure was called to the chair
and Geo. W. Barnes was-nu.de secretary.
A general convention was called to meet
on the 17th. inst. The idea of the State
Convention at Columbia injecting political
matters into its deliberations was
unanimously opposed. The opinion was
unanimous that if any good can come
from a general organization of farmers
in the State, so as to make them more
prosperous outside of political action:
much good might be accomplished.
Kershaw County will take no stock in
any movement having politics in any
form injected into the farmer's movement.
CHKSTF.lt SUl'l'OHTS THE MOVEMENT.
Chester, April 5.?A considerable
number of farmers of this county assembled
in convention to-day for the
purpose of electing delegates to the Farmers'
State Convention to meet in Columbia
on the 29th. inst. Mr.' R. T.
Mockbee was elected chairman and Mr*
J. Harvey Iiardin secretary. The chairman
in stating the object of the meeting
said that the farmers of the State ought
lo unite for the purpose of advancing
their own interests. He said that the
farmers are burdened with high taxation
and should do something to lighten
the burden* He denied that the farm- !
jrs' movement was in opposition to
the Democratic party and was intended
to array the fanners against other
Masses.
Major Julius Mills spoke in the same
;train. He announced his opposition
.o participating in the meeting if the
?bject was to array one claso against
mother class, lie favored the estabishinent
of an agricultural society,

A letter was rea.i from Col. W. R.
lavie, in which a considerable amount
>f cold water was thrown upon the
armors' movement. He said he had no
lomplaints to make against the Demo:ratic
party ; that taxes had been righty
levied and honestly disbursed and that
hero conld be no reduction or the taxes
without impairing the efficiency of the
itnte Goverment.
Considerable time was consumed in
ominating and electing delegates to the
'armers' State Convention. The folDwing
were elected : Messrs. Julius
lills, E. M. Shannon, Jesse H. Hardin,
. R. Culp and W. G. Austin.
At the close of the farmers' meeting
n agricultural society was organized '
rith Capt. W. G. Austin president and '
[njor Julius Mills secretary. One of |
ne resolutions adopted wan that only 1
iriners be received as members of the '
aciety. A motion was made and caried
that the president be requested to (
ppoint five delegates to tho State Fariers'Convention.
The following d?losites
were appointed : Messrs. G. W. i
impson, E. P. Moore, T. J. Cunning* \

BE MOVEMENT STIIONO IN ABBENII.LK "
Abbbeville, April 5.?The farmers' ^
onvention mot and organized here to
?y. Mr. J. II. Morrah, an Ex-ltepre- s
intative. was elected chairman, E. W. C
>ratson, secretary, and I. H. McCalla, c
eanurer. Mr. Morrah, on taking the u
lair, made an eloquent, though short r
Idress, saying that the object of this
ovement was iu>f to harm or hurt any
re; that it was intended to secure the ^
utunl 'benefit and protection of all ; L
lat so far a* he knew there was no pd
liticnl object in the organization. The
convention being retuly for business O.
P. Hawthorne took the floor and made a
good speech. After some further discussion
the following delegates wore
elected to the State Convention on the
29th of this month ; John E. Bradley
and John H. Morrah, both Ex-Kepresentatives,
W. A. Moore, David AiKen and
O. P. Hawthorn ; alternates, J. E. Todd,
A, \V. Smith. J. E. Brownlee, H. J.
Kinard and J. N.Cochran.
O. P. Hawthorne ottered the following
resolutions :
Whkkeas, we bcliev > it to be the
right of every citizen to express his own
choice by ballot for every elective ofliccr
; and, whereas, under the convention
plan of making nominations for
Congressmen urid State officers we are
denied a proper voice in the nomination
of these officers ; therefore be
it .
Jtesolved, That it is the sense of the
farmers of Abbeville County, in convention
assembled, that the nomination
of all State officers and Congressmen
should be submitted directly to (he
people in primary election.
Jtesolved, That delegates from this
convention to the State Convention of
Farmers, to meet in Columbia on the
29th. inst., be instructed to bring- this
matter to the attention of that body for
their action.
Without anjr discussion a n.otion to
table was put and carried- Politics
seemed to be at a discount, as every
elfoit to inject anything of a political
uiiiuru wus discountenanced. 'i'herc
wore severnl hundred farmers present
despite the inclement weather, and a
good sprinkling of negroes. The movement
in this count)' is si.ong and growing.
DELEGATES KKOM I.AITRENS.
Laurens, April 5.?A large crowd of
representative farmers assembled in the I
Coorthousu to-dny. Dr. A. C. Fuller
was elected chairmun and S. F. Vance
secretary of the meeting. G. \V. Shell, |
J. S. Block, J. A. Jones, W. P. Harris

Fuller. The Lisbon Club (local) will
send J. D. M. Shaw ; Shiloh, A. Cannon.
Williamsville will send J. M. Hudgins.
There was but little speech making and
no resolutions were passed. Your correspondent
learns that an overwhelming
majority of tho farmers are in sympathy
with the Tillman movement. The
weather is unfavorable and the rain falling
in torrents.
NEWBERRY IX THK NOTION.
Newberry. April 5.?The county convention
of farmers, called to meet
here to-day to elect delegates to a State
convention, was largely attended, and

could scarcely have been chosen. Hon.
J. N. Lipscomb, secretary of State, was
present. There was no big speech makng,
but the convention got right down i
to business.
A considerable rain has fallen to- j
lay.
PICKED MEN FROM PICKENS. J
Pickens, C. H., April 5.?A mass I
neeting of tha farmers of this county '
vas held in the Courthouse to-day. The ,
neeting was well attended and the pro- '
:eedings were interesting. Resolutions 1
vere adopted favoring legislation for 8
he good of the farmer, oppposing the y
igricultural department as now con- 1
lucted, but keeping politics out of the
armers' movement, except so far as to *
ecure the redress of the grievances c

A Yeomanry.
.
(Augusta Chroniclo)
By this term I mean that class of
white citizens generally known as small
fnriners?men who hired negro labor
worked farms of fifty, a hundred or two
hundred acres ; if they own the farm*
. V- ~- V-jrt
they till, so much the better. There
arc many such in the South, but their
numbers should be. and, with well-dirocted
efforts could be, increased tenfold.
Inured to work with spade and
plow from boyhood, they do not play
the gentleman farmer but take their place
in the field with their hired negroes,
and not only see them do their work,
but set them an example. They do not
aspire to be planters ; they do not deal rj
in futures ahd try to make fortunes by
speculation ; they are simply farmers
who make the earth yield her increase
for the support of their families. Tbey '
ire not rich* nor are they in haste to v
t>e rich ; but they are well-to, and their
thrift and frugality keep them out of A
lebt and thus independent. Perhaps
the most prosperous country in South ;v.
3arolinas owes its prosperity to the unjsually
large number of such small
farmers wuhin its borders?a yeomanry _

It was just such a yeomanry that

ettlers moving from Pennsylvania;
icotch-Irish and Scotch settlers from
ide-water Virginia; a hardy race of
rontiersmen who hewed .their **ay

raved thu tomahawk and bullet of the

race of pioneers who built achnrch
