FAltltlF.IlH AND TI1K FACTORY,
There! ls no doubt but that tho
proposed cotton factory will infuse
new life Into every tindo, perstlit
ami profession, not only in town,
but all thc towns around, and tho
County ut largo; but it is oyr do?
rdre to show that fanners, moro
than any other class will be direct
ly beneftttcd. Of course farmers
cannot bo bonefltted without bono?
fitting everybody oise, because they
are the producers, but wo agree
with Bill Arp; there ure too ninny
tanners in this section. Wo need
moro consumers.
Now why should fanners bo in
terested in this matter ? President
Hammett of Piermont, states that
his mill pays out to his operatives
? 120.000 in cash a year. This mon
ey is spent by operatives at homo,
and most ot* it for provisions. Hero
we have in this county $120,000
spent for thc very articles the far
mer has to sell, which would other
wise not be bore; consequently ho
1? given a market for bis produce.
Hut the main advantage to farmers
ls in the price of their chief product
-cotton. "We know that Inst your
these cotton factories paid on an
nvorage one cent per pound more
for cotton than could bo bad ( lso
where. They bought direct from
producers, and saved freight, stor
age, commissions, etc., and they
could p fiord to give more. Now
what does this menu to tho fanners
of Laurens County? lt is simply
a matter of one hundred and .ti.rtji
thousand dollars more to tho far
mers than they would get without
the factory! Hut,you ask. what is
that to nie? Tf you work one horse
and make 10 huies of "colton, it
Means just $80,00 more than you
Would otherwise get. Now $80,00
per horse added to bis iueomo ev
ery year, will help many :i poor
man in this county to make money
at farming. Suppose you invest
$800, tn the factory for every plow
you run, you get 10 nor cont inter
est in the price of cotton, and this
is merely one of tho incidental
promts from the factory.
Hundreds of men who do not
raise cotton have found cotton fae
tlries to be good investments. Wo
soe they uro nil paying good divi
dends, and many ns high as 20 per
cent. There is no question but
that If properly managed out's will
pay as much as any, so that wc
have In addition lo tho $80,00 on
.cot!on, $100,00; making $210,00 prof
it on ten halos of cotton, a'.lOVC tho
prico paid for ibo cotton. Is (herc
any Investment equal to this? We
would discourage no one who has
a desire to buy bank stock, but
such an investment cannot bo com
pared to n cotton factory. And
besides a man can use his stock in
tho factory as collateral to get mon
ey at the bunk to run his farm.
Many a man cnn by making an ef
fort put one or two thousand dol
lars In this factory, and while it i*
unquestionably safe, it is all tho
while bringingliim good interest.
Thc committee charged with
raising this capital stock are moet
ting phenominal success, but every
dollar subscribed Olli'* makes the
enterprise more valuable und will
tend to make it pay hotter. Let
everyman take stock, even though
It bo only a few shares. Wo must
strike now or never.
SHERMAN ON* TH R T A1:1P F.
In his r??crit speech in Teni?osec
John Sherman said that the Repub
lican position on the turill' is : "That
while leviod for revenue, they
should be so adjusted ns to pro eel
foster and encourage American in
dustry."
Several 'democratic newspapers
have said that this is the doctrine
of the d?mocratie party on the tar
iff, but tho Kew*. ??- Courier at?
tempts to read out of democratic
ranks nil who accept such a posi
4ion. We rsec nothing whatever
In the utterance, oven though it
comes from John Sherman, that is
not 1n harmony with every demo
cratic platform we have rend. Cer
tain lt is, that the democratic party
hen declared for a tariff for reve
nue-*, NTHI although Mr. WATTERSON
dbi manage t i get into'ono platform
Mfor revenue only," the history of
rho party ls that democrats have
sought stitfh nu adjustment of this
."tariff for revenue" as to give incl
dental protection.' - ,If Republican
leghdator* would net In accordance
with this doctrine which Sherman
at fri bu tee to his party, there would
be no difference on (hat point. Bul
this doctrine is not the prnctie of
the republicans.
Tfoe great difference ns we con
?ple-ye it, between the two parties
to day IK, that tho democratic pari
ty wants a tariff fixed at suer, lig
ures as will raise tho necessary
roven no for the government, und
plncod on such articles ns will pro
tect American industries. A tar
iff for revenue with incidental pro
octio'.i. Tho republicans ?>n the
other hand have given us n tariff
that ignores the question of reve
nue, and takes from tho people
moro than ls necessary for tho ex
penses of tho government, solely
i to protect,-not American Indus
tries-l>ut manufacturers of certain
articles, lt ls tho inequalities in
the tariff that needs reforming.
What we need is a tariff that
does not take one cent moi r from
the people than isubsoltllcly neces
sary in order to raise tilt* revenue
for the government economically
administered which will at the
sumo time give tho greatest pro
tection possible to American indus
tries. This ?s the correct doctrine
of tho National D?mocratie party,
and the sooner Southern individ
uals,societies and newspapers,
cease harping on "free trade," thu
better it will be for us, and the
sooner w o cnn got real tariff reform.
No question bas ever been pre
sented for thc consideration of our
people, so important and fur reach
ing in its effect, as that which bas
for tho past few weeks absorbed
all others nt this place vi/ : the
cotton factory. Tho meeting hold
on Tuesday night was thoroughly
representative, and from the spirit
of those present, we are not sur
prised to bud that tho mensure ls
assuming shape, A committee of
fifty men in tho County bas been
appointed, and these men are spec
ially urged to secure $2,000 of thc
capital slock each. This amount
cnn undoubtedly be raised and we
may expect the full amount of
$100,000 subscribed In a marvelous
ly short time. Our people have at
InSt realized Ibo situation, they no
longer look upon the "measure ns
one of the grnnd possibilities which
tho future must bring forth, but
they have come to look upon it as
a living reality, a certainty. They
realize,for once thc absolute neces
sity for this enterprise*, if we ex
pect to grow and piospcr as n
town and county. They know that
we have made commendable prog
ress in the past few years, and they
know that unless something of thc
kind can be accomplished, we will
not only stand where we are, but
will witness the glory which should
be ours, perched upon nnothers
banner. Unless we can improve
and establish a cotton market, we
cannot reasonably expect trade to
come to us. We have the railroads
but they have done all that can be
done until we turn our attention
towards factories. Tin y have on
ly placed us in a position favorable
to Stich enterprises, and all that
I cmaiiis to bring prosperity to Lau
rens ami a good, sound, healthy
boom to this scud ion, is the enter
prise under considere!ion. It will
briny; a home market for farmers.
They can then sell corn, Hour,
chickens, eggs, Latter, hog and
hominy, and have their cotton
turned Into clothes, at home. Now,
work for the factory.
From the sad trngedy which hap
pened in Newberry recently,result
ing in the death of young .Jones at
tho hands of his brother lawyer,
Johnson, we may learn some im
portant lessons. Hut we dare ay
the lesion w ill ooo be forgotten,
and men will continu ? to violate
tlic law by currying deadly weap
ons concealed about their persons
and lawyers will continue to abuse
each ot her hy tin- useless applica
tions of Insulting epithets.

Hint planting on'the s I a Ik ?hod eon?
(inously i- wrong. This is 11 cu toni ;
of n grout ninny farmers, Sol so lu
Ibo l*oo-Dee section, hut in ninny'
portions of I he South. If lands are
naturally rich ll makes nul little
dille-ronce how they are prepared
or cultivated. Iud on Lind- Hint
hilve to bc nurtured und fed from u
silver spoon we most bo cn refill bow
we bundle it. Now what I wish to
say i- tin-, plant this year where
(he alley was Ins! your, mid near
Hie lev I or below the lovel rut her
than on ii hod. Thi n in cultiva
ting you (brow Hie soil d< wu hill
instead of up hilt, lt i; not so sub
Joel lo ho injured by drought, lt00t.4
ix rc never eui. lt is impossible to
cultiv?te * crop ol cotton 011 n Ked
without seriously cutting or press
ing the roots, ll can Im dono with
hoe \\ <>rk nx Hie sea island or long
staple planters do il : but ii is ex
pensive, und it would liol pay to
ninki cotton hy mich system.
To prepare colton lund nflor cot
ton is to run oui Hie stol ks with a
four or live-inch shovel or I > 1111 -
tongue llrst. In (urning your fur
row, if there uro large sdi Ik, uso two
mules, ; bon uno w ill walk iii oneil
alloy; l>ut if lhere ar?- small stulks
and I i "-li I hind, ono furrow wi til one
horse will do, The bon:- walks on
(oi> of the stalk-bed, Now, if you
wish lo pl..nt below u level, throw
back to the llrsl furrow, or stalk
row, until the alley isclcurcd out.
This give . ;t good cllilllce for deep
ploughing. Apply your fertilizer
in (lie alley, ?ind plant on two fur
rows. Tills gives you g good op
portunity of planting any height or
dept o you choose, und Hie ia nd that I
was not fertilized this-|f (hero is
nny fertilizer left from hist yours
fertilizer, tho rsots ge! ii when the
plants uro large rind nt fertilizing
time. Win n planted In Hie same
pince continually, Hie middle of tho
row becomes very poor, and the
long roots Hull have gone to thal
part have nothing to feed ott when
they IllOSt need ?I.
The system of reversing the ron
every year is more Uko broadcast
fertilizing, which is tho popular
way to fertilize, moko them rieh.
.Mr. Dixon was wrong when
be said, plant on a bed and cul?
tival.' level with a large (lat
sweep. It enift be done with?
out too linnell root pruning,
Hoots of colton should never he
cut. The only way to keep from
cutting is to pion! for thu! purpose,
USO :l piailler tildi piltsOVOry seed
in the bottom of Hie furrow, ?ind
one timi does not ll!low the wind
to blow (be need (rom tho furrow
011 one side. The Dow Law and
nil pla nt ors of thal lui i Id ?1 re worth?
less. I'or instance, lb" Dow Low
goes in n swinging motion and pms
purl of tho seed shallow nilli pai l
deep, ami makes an in egtthir -d iml
A perfect stund invery SSSOnfiftl in
cultivating a crop. Manya fanner
is ruiner! by not having bis cotton
come np BO Hutt it can bo worked
before tho gras* tokos possession.
I will toll you Inter bow to culti
vate it 011 my level or low system,
