A man once fcwncd a small farm. ! He did his best to till it and rear a family, but after working hard all his ' life he died a poor man. The farm was inherited by his eldest son. The I ?on discovered a gold mine and be- i came immensely rich. The property ! he had was the same that his father i had; but the father didn't know what was in the land, while the son found it out.

The State ailianee, the organization of which so much was heard a few years back, particularly in campaign i years, is still alive and doing well according to President Efird, and he does not think that its days of usefulness are over. The organization met in Columbia last week and begun its annual ( session, reaching a final adjournment about midnight. There were 14 of the forjv-odd counties in the State represented at the gathering. The body met in the State supreme court room. At the opening of the session President D. F. Efird of Lexington presented his annual report as follows: Brethren: We have assembled to hold the fifteenth annual meeting of the Farmers' Alliance of South Carolina. One year ago a plan was formulated looking to the arousing of new interest in our order. A committee was appointed consisting of Brother A. C. Lyles. chairman of the Alliance ex* * * 4.1 TIT NT ri.lfti. j enunge tuna, ormutrr ?v. i-*. , lecturer, and myself. We selected Brother J. C. Wilbourn, reorganizes We issued a circular entitled "A Heal Necessity," which we distributed over ! the State. Upon invitation we visited , Lancaster, two points in Union. Laurens and several points in Spartan| bii'g. What we have accomplished by ; our work let the evidence here answer. We have 14 counties here represented. Our er.emies have from time to j time given notice of our death, and rejoiced over the prediction of our J burial. We have stood as a national organ!- i zation for 17 years and in this State ! 15 years, battling for the rights of the j oppressed. New conditions today con| front us in the South. Labor and capital should go hand in hand, there need be no clash between them. Strikes i are more universal than ever in the history of this country; like wars of times a necessity. When the "dollar'' | is placed abeve the man labor asserts ! her power. The Teamsters' strike of Chicago almost famished, a city of plenty. The Freight Handlers' union j going out on a strike has cost that, city alone Jl.OOO.Ouu a day. The miners' j strike in the hard coal fields of the ! northwest is assuming alarming proportions. We hear of labor troubles in every quarter. Labor contending lor ner ngnis Uo^iiibi ui^auacu vuj/i- j tal. This historic city has felt the infln- j ence of organized labor in her -work- , shops and cotton mills. Even the news- ; boys here asked for their rights through organization. Our fight is along different lines. I call your attention to these few cases to show you that we can win if we but stand together. We have j accomplished much and have much yet to do. Our demands have not stopped within the wails of our meeting places, but have been made issues in the halls of State and nation. We have educated the people as no other organization has done. Wc have come out victori{ our in several fights with trusts. Let i us strive to do more good. Let us en- ! j deavor to correct the evils of class leg- j I islation. Let us have equal rights to j i all and special privileges to none. 11 ; a man filches your purse he is tried ' and punished, but a manufacturer makes and sells for "all wool and a yard wide" that which is half cotton and 32 inches wide, thereby robbing the world of thousands of dollars and nothing is said. A thief enters your larder and donates to his own use your j steak for breakfast; you can imprison him, but a beef trust robs a nation of ! millions and it is all right. A hungry ; tramp feeds upon your "roasting ears;" ! you put him on the chaingang, but a "Gates" can coiner all the corn of the j west, thereby donating to himself mil- j lions of the people's money and the laws of our lr.nd say not a word. Let us not become discouraged, let us go on until we "emancipate the i toiling mases from the grasp of or' ganized monopolies," remembering "in j things essential unity, and in all things I ohorltr " I now commend to you the work before you. The address was heard with considerable interest. The following appointments were made for the present meeting: Chaplain?Jas. A. Lewis. Steward?J. R. Thompson. Doorkeeper?A. S. Frick.

The report of the executive committee in regard to the books of secretarytreasurer being examined and found correct wJt adopted. A press committee was appointed consisting of 0. P. Goodwin, J. F. Nisbet and J. B. Pickett. A telegram from Col. James A. Hoyt published in the Cotton Plant, explaining his absence was "read before the State alliance. All the officers were then unanimously reelected for the coming year. The committee on good of the order was chosen as follows: Dr. J. Shuler, J. B. Picket and J. B. Douthit. The folowing offered by Jas. B. Addy was adopted: Resolved. That this alliance ask the directors of the State alliance exchange for a contribution from the interest accruing from said exchange found for the benefit of the reorganisation of the suspended alliance. SUICIDE OF DR. GRISSOH Was For Many Years Superintendent North Carolina Insane Asylum. Washington, Special.?Dr. Eugene Grissom, once" well-known as an alienist and neurologist, committed suicide here Sunday at his son's home, by sending a bullet through his brain. Dr. Grissom had teen dejected meovornl trooL'p an/1 hfjfl become physically and mentally weakened from the use of strong narcotics. He was a native of Granville county. N. C.. served cn the Confederate side until wounded during the civil war and afterwards was a member of the State Legislature. For 21 years he was superintendent of the North Carolina Insane Asylumn, at Raleigh, and gained a wide reputation as an alienist and lecturer. Before the American Medical Society he delivered a lecture entitled "The Borderland of Insanity." that attracted great attention. He was the author of "True and False Experts," a work devoted to showing the alleged inaccuracies of the expert testimony in insanity eases. Dr. Grissom was one time first vice president of the American Medical Society and several times presiding officer of the Association of American Asylumns. He was the president of the convention of 1886. He was a Mason of high degree. He was 71 years old. Eleventh Week of Strike. r>? OnA^ui ?? ilivcsuaiic, la., O^c.iai. a uc uvginning of the eleventh week of the anthracite miners' strike finds apparently no changejn the situation, although the rumor *has been revived that an effort will be made some day this week to start up one of the collieries. The companies have a sufficient number of coal and iron policemen enlisted now to prevent trouble, should it arise, and all that would be necessary to get a mine in operation would be a sufficient number of miners and laborers to blast the coal and load it on the cars. No doubt plenty of ordinary laborers could be secured but it is a question whether the requisite number of miners could be persuaded to go into the workings. At strike headquarters the belief is as strong as ever that the operators) cannot resume and that it is idle' talk to even suggest such a thing. President Mitchell simply says that the situation is about the same and that the strikers are as firm as ever. Three hundred delegates, representing 10,000 Polish and Lithunian residents of the Wyoming Valley, met in convention here and after endorsing the strike, appointed a committee of 10 to visit New York, Philadelphia. Pittsburg, Buffalo and other large cities and solicit aid from the Polish and Lithunia* people for their coun trvmen now on siriKe in me uuthracite region. Coal From Alabama to New Orleans.

Special.?Preparations are being projected by the Warrior River Coal and Transportation Company for beginning the transportation of coal by barge from tho mines of the Warrior river in Alabama to this city by means of the recently constructed T,ake Eorgne Canal.

King, n former resident of Baltimore, shot two Sisters of Charity at the New York City Foundling Hospital. Gov. Robert M. La Follette, who was renominated' by Wisconsin Republicans, in"his speech attacked the friends of Senator Spooner. A speaker in the ' North Carolina State Democratic Convention, at Greensboro, caused an uproar by denouncing ex-President Cleveland. The inquest in the case of A. J.
