The whooping up and howling I down of candidates at politicial i meetings has become very com mon, more so this year than in the 90's when .such a tumult was raised. Indeed it has be come professional. Men follow the campaign from place to place to whoop up their favorite. From newspaper accounts of the twenty five or more State campaign meetings thus far held one would get the idea that Gov. Blease ws easily the favorite with the people for the reason he received the most ap plause and hurrahs. But this does not always show, in fact very seldom indicates, the man receiving it is the favorite. Fifty men in a crowd of five hundred yelling, whooping, hollering and cheering would easily impreES one that the whole crowd or the greater part of it was engaged in it. Three or four dozen men can make enough noise in a crowd to drown the voicesf Ithe strongest speaker. This question..hasbeen raised in the Stateeampaign and is be -K ftised by the candidates and newspapers. It has been stated and not denied that the whoopers fer Gov. Blease at the campaign meetings are what is known in the latest political parlance as "rooters" that - is they are fond friends of the governor scattered over the state and go from place to place, from county to county to whoop 'em up. At the Calhoun county meeting Judge Jones made a of Blease men ad mit they were from Orange burg and Lexington, adjoining counties. It is well known that the Columbia meeting which whooped so long and loud for 2 Blease had men, Blease men, from all over the state. They went there to whoop 'em up and they whooped 'em up. We were told by a gentleman this week that already plans were being laid and arrange mnents made to run special trains from every part of the state to the Greenville meeting, which will be the last one. Watch and see if this is not true. Watch and see if the Greenville meet ing is not the most largely at tended of any in all the cam paign. Watch and see if the Blease whoopers are not there in large numbers and that such whooping as they will do will be a caution. Watch and see if they do not try to howl Jones down and carry the meeting by storm for Blease so as to make the impression that he is ~~A i~~-sweep the Piedmont Wsection. As Fagun would say "watch". Plan to Hold Cotton. I noticed last winter that the farmers were holding conven tions and adopting resolutions with the view of obtaining higher prices for cotton. These conventions, resolutions and pledges to reduce acreage are all right as far as they go, but so far they have been ineffect ual. They are deficient in power, and consequently fail to secure the relief that the farm ers are entitled to. Resolutions and pledges cannot compete' with capital. It takes capital to compete with capital. Mon ey is necessary to compete with the money of the speculators and bears of Wall street and the Thuropean spinners. How would the following plan do? Each county in the South es tablish a farmers' cotton bank and warehouse at a suitable place in the county, the capital stock amounting from~ $400,000, 00 to $1.000,O000 dollars. or as large amount as is necessary for tho operation of the cotton selling business of the respec tive counties. Stock shares to be $100 with the privilege to any and all persons to aid in sup port of this plan to buy as many shares as wanted. All stockholders to share equally; no preferred stock. Loan this money on cotton de posited in warehouse as collat eral, interest at five or six per ~ent per annum, said interest *o be paid montly in advance, Yond the value of -the cotton [lateral. This money to be loaned upon tton collateral only. The profits would not accrue >on. the stock invested, but pon the advance and high lice of the cotton when sold der this plan. This. it seems ) me, would put the farmers in condition to pay their debts d hold their cotton for ad ance and remunerative price. The farmers' cotton bank and rarehouse to be regularly or ,anized and chartered and anaged by competent business nen upon rerounerative sa d ies, the officers to furnish 'd uate bond, and these institu ions to be managed as all other ;afe banking institutions are. According to this plan, each armer who is a stockholder, >orrpws the money he needs as in individual transaction wth >ut relation to any other stock holder, and he sells his cottor when it suits him and pays hic debts to these banks without re lation to any other stockholder just the same as he would bor row money on land or chatte from any other bank. There fore, we think this removes thi transaction from the operatioi of the Sherman Anti-Trust Act It is, in a few words, a cot ton bank where a farmer cai borrow money on his cotton an, hold it until he wishes to sell ii There is no conspiracy to poC cotton and hold it for a certai: price. Each stockholder acts I his individual capacity, an sells when he thinks it will pr< mote his best interest. Thi plan would be permanent. Any plan for securing a pro: itable price for cotton that hf not capital for its basic found, tion will always be a failur Respectfully, J. H. Newton, Pickens, S. C. Yonah Land.
