WHAT IS THE VERDICT We have all seen that, .for years past, Capt. Tillman has been crying out against the cor ruption which existed in the - State government, but that Patrick County, Virginia, got drunk when, “pinned down” by said A HAPPY WORLD. The Charleston World’s pic ture gallery grows worse and worse as it goes on. The first picture published (that of Capt. B. R. Tillman) was bad enough in all conscience, but those who came after him were doomed to even worse punishment than their chief. From the flattering editorial comments which it makes on its pictorial enterprise, the World seems quite satisfied with its gallery, however, so we suppose evrybody else ought to be. 5T1E CROPOUTLOOK. The crop reports received from all sections of the County are unusually cheerful, and our peo ple of every calling unite in the hope that propitious seasons may continue to bless the farm ers, and that the crop to be gath ered in the Year of Grace 1890 will amply compensate them for the dire agricultural calamities which have overtaken them for several successive seasons in the past.

In all of these varied self to think intelligently connectedly, then he wi — , —. better fitted to form co.. w . are also, in not a few of them, a opinions of the social, political, number of supernumeraries who and financial problems of the could very well be spared from day. Some of these problems terests in a legitimate way, but they have done so at the ex pense of the interests and rights of other people. Finally the far mers, appreciating the advanta ges to be gained by organiza tion, and at the same time see ing that their rights were being encroached upon by some of these combinations, have organ ized for their own protection and advantage, and called their organization the “Farmers’ Al liance.” Unlike some other combina tions the Farmers’ Alliance does not propose to encroach on the rights or privileges of any one. Its sole purpose is to improve the condition of the farmers in every legitimate and proper di rection. In proof of which we refer to its declaration of prin ciples and purposes, of which declaration we are justly proud, and we confidently challenge its comparison with that of any other organization in the world. The Alliance is attracting more attention just now than aH the other combinations in the country put together. Why is this ? In the first place its. un paralleled success k uniting the farmers into one grand organi zation has excited the greatest surprise and wonder, and in some cases anxiety ; again the farmers are so strong numeri cally, that if they ever do thor oughly organize themselves into one compact body and feel and know their own , they can effect a peaceful but a most complete revolution in the political and business affaire of the nation. Naturally the poli ticians are anxiously watching to see if the Alliance is going into politics. And also many who nave heretofore been living at the farmers’ expense, with lit tle or no return made for value received, are afraid that the suc cess of the Alliance will mean that they must go to work for an honest living. Others, with no such selfish motives, are also watching us, fearing that when the farmers feel their power and their present places, feavfng the little work they do, with its remuneration, to be done by the better members of their profes sion. Has it never struck you how many men live in our towns and villages with apparently little or nothing to do ? Yet who seem to live well, dress well and have more of the comforts and luxu ries of life than do most of the actual producers who work hard everjr day. From whom do these parties get their living at last ? If the Exchange proves a suc cess and the farmers are there by enabled to buy and sell in the best markets, and conse quently to get a larger and a fairer share of the products of their labor, some of these super numeraries will probably get hurt; there will be a certain evo lution in certain classes with the survival of the fittest. We read numerous well writ ten articles in the agricultural papers, full of convincing argu ments to prove the many advan tages and beauties of farm life and urging the young men to “stick to the farm,” but the young men don’t stick as a gen eral rule. Why ? One great reason is that they see that the same amount of labor, either physical or mental, is better paid almost everywhere else than on the farm. If the Exchange en ables ’/he farmers to retain a larger share of their earnings and thus to get better pay for their labor, it will do more to keep the y oung men on the farms than anything that will ever be said or written on the subject. Again, the Exchange will prove a great educator to the farmer. It has already taught him a vast deal about prices; it has shown him what tremend ous profits some people have been making out of him ; it will teach him to buy and sell to tot ter advantage ; it will give him a better knowledge of business methods ; it will demonstrate to him the advantage of the cash over the credit system, and do ing that will prove a strong in centive to him to practise the strictest economy till he can get in a condition to buy entirely for cash, and when he does that he will feel like a different man. It will teach him the necessity of being more methodical and accurate in his business.

That is not plan of the Exchange is not yet perfect, and it is open to criti cism ; but can those who criti cize it formulate abetter one? It is an easy thing to criticize; anybody can do that. The brain which originated the Exchange idea is one of the greatest of this age. The Exchange has al ready saved hundreds of thou sands of dollars to the farmers of the South and its grand work is only begun. If we ever do feel disposed to find fault with it, let us remember what a venture it is into new and untried fields: what a departure from the old ruts ; how many difficulties it has had to contend with ; how much opposition it has encoun tered. Let us remember how much derision and how many jeers of contempt its enemies will cast onus if it fails, and lastly, let us remember that if it is not perfect it is ours, it is the best and the only one we have; let our pride in our noble calling make us ashamed not to sup port it. Instead of criticizing it let us lay hold like men to push it on to success, let us talk it up, explain its many and great ad vantages ; and what is more im portant, let us buy every dollar’s worth through it that we possi- b D-can. This year is a critical time with our State Exchange; it is now an infant in its swaddling clothes, but if it lives through this year, (and the indications now are that it will) next year it will be agiant whose blessings to our people will be incalcula ble. It is in charge of some of year increase. Another one of our declare- let us constantly strive to main tain brotherly love among our selves ; let us be always ready to accord to those who differ with us the same honesty and sincerity of purpose and convic tion that we claim for ourselves. If a brother or a neighbor dif- making war on anybody, or try- J our best men who are giving ing to injure anybody ; it is only much time and study to the per- looking after our own interests fecting of its working detmls. in a perfectly fair and legitimate As our people come to under way. If anybody should hap- stand it totter pen to get hurt that is not our lookout, it will only prove that somebody has been getting a part of the products of our la to which he was not and which he has look more closely after our own san spirit.” The Alliance seeks nwi assured you win never no ii business; we can’t blame him, no higher or more worthy object by losing your temper and using we have only ourselves to blame, than the one set forth in this •- —i.:~v —i.— In every civilized country, declaration. Every true man’s with its complicated social con- education ends only with his the foundation of his real educa- 0 tion, especially such a one as Order, “In things essential uni- are facing us now and will need to be solved in the near future. One of them is to secure a more equitable division of the pro ducts of labor, as between the laborer and the capitalist; at E resent the capitalist seems to e getting more than his share, and to have the influence of the national government entirely on his side. Again, the burden of taxes bears unequally. Who pays the taxes ? The capitalist roiling in wealth, with his millions hio- den away so that the assessor can’t find them, or the hard working farmer, whose posses sions are all in personal proper ty or real estate which he could not hide if he would ? Then again our national finan cial system appears to be de vised entirely in the interest of the millionaires, to enable them to pile up more millions at the expense of their poorer country men. Our growing crop of mil lionaires and our ever increasing horde of tramps show that some thing is wrong. In the solution of these and other problems the Alliance, with its immense nu merical strength can wield a mighty influence. „ The more intelligent thought and study given to them by the rank and files, the more surely will its in fluence be for good. These prob lems are too grave and knolty and involve too much to our selves and to our common coun- tiy to be decided lightly or hur riedly, or either to be left too entirely to our leaders who are only human like ourselves and will need and ought to have our intelligent assistance. To keep informed on the questions of the day and also to keep step in all Alliance movements the mem bers should take one or more Alliance papers, read them care fully and then discuss their con tents in the meetings. Each Sub-Alliance lecturer should be furnished, at the expense of his Alliance, with a copy of the State and National organ, which he should be expected and re quired to read and to give his Alliance the benefit of his read- iug.^ Unde*' some such system as mg. unaer some such syst< as this the lecturer would be, _ he ought to be, the most impor it officer in the Sub-Alliance tant and in a year’s time the mem bers would be surprised to note the development in themselves and in each other.
