THE FARMERS'
UNION BUREAU.
Conducted by S. C. Farmers' Union
Address all communications intended for this
eolutnn to J. 0. Stribling, Pendleton C.
Farmers Get Ready.
From all orer South (Jirolica
comes inquiry ut>om now to proceeu
to get up a Farmers* Union and all
about tne work of the Farmers'
Union.
In answer to all these questions
will say that the first step is to get
fifteen good farmers together ready
to be organized, then write to the
State Secretary B F Early, Anderson
S.C. and get instructions as to I
how to proceed to organize and when
an organizer can be sent to your section
cf the State.
/ Do Kot Forget This.
That at all places where Farmers'
Union speakers are to address the
people,they are expected to advertise
these meetings and make all local
arrangements to suit themselves,
and to meet the speakers at the railroad.
In oar travels over tbe State the
cheering sight of the finest corn crops
ever seen in the State greets the
traveler in nearly every section.
Fortified with the corn and feed
Orops aud entrenc hed behind oyer
one thousand cotton warehouses and
increasing our membership at an average
of more than three thousand
per day, the Farmers' Uaion jnstly
feels proud of its grand success.
Farmers, stand firm to your original
principles and guard against the
influences of the wily demagogue
politician and the demagogue newspaper,
and all the coiton bears on
earth cannot climb over or dig under
your fences.
Tbe Farmers' Rally Meeting of
Oconee county, South Carolina, to
oome off at Oakway near Seneca on
tbe 21st of August, bids fair to be
the largest gathering of farmers in
that section in years.
The speaker on that occasion
will be fresh from the field and in
good shape to tell the people abont
the grand campaign of the Farmers'
Union all over the Somh and especially
abont what has been done in
&QQth Carolina and Georgia.
Two of the worst enemies of the
Farmers' Union that we are now np
to are the demagogue in onr ranks and
tome inconsistent newspaper men on
the outside that are at it all the while
warning the Farmers' Union of the
dangerous demagogue and at the
same time advocating' the importation
of low grade immigrants for
. the use of cotton mills. Now it does
look like any man with even ordinary
intelligence should know that this
low grade immigrant class ot people
fcre the very best supporters of demagoguery
on the face of the earth.
Hence we warn the Union against
the influence of either the demagogue
politician or these demagogue newspaper
men. One of these is as dangerous
as the other is.
There is some significance about
this continual harping about the
affiliation of the Farmers' Unfon
with the Federation of Labor and the
demagogue that smacks of pure rot
when it is known that these same
newspapers have always opposed far
mere' organizations and catered to
the interest of corporations.
Whereas, the population of these
United States of America is being
constantly, rapidly and as we think
most unwelcomely increased by an
overwhelming tide of foreign immigration
composed largely of paupers,
criminals, and otherwise undesirable
immigrants; and,
Whereas, seeing the strenuous efforts
being made by some of the
Southern States to encourage the
foreigners to come into this Southland
of ours and viewing such efforts
with alarm and gieat disfavor, that
we join in the great battle crv, abolish
foreign immigration; and,
Whereas, seeing that a large part
of the troubles and disturbances in
this country arise from foreign ideas
promulgated by the foreign element
of our population, politically socially,
religiously or otherwise and
that before we were afflicted with
I
?
j these hordes of criminal, and ieck|
le6s foreigners, lockouts, socialism,
anarchy and many other evils were
practised very little if any; and,
Whereas, we feel and know that
we have the purest and highest type
i of Anglo-Saxon civilization on earth
^ . . T
here in the Southern states ana
earnestly deeirir.g to keep it such at
least here in this bright sunny South
1 Carolina of ours; and,
Whereas, we feel and know, with
7 7
the accursed jug traffic that the express
companies aie foisting upon
our people and ruining so many of
j cur young men and older ones too.
with the Sabbath breaking foreiguiers
mixed with a class of low, degraded
Sunday drinking boys for
j them to mix with would make darkest
Africa blush.
1st. Resolved that we are determined
that as far as in our power
lies to keep our splendid inheritance
for ourselves, onr children and our
children's children and strive to
better fit and prepare them for the
daily avocation of life and citizenshin.
r.
2nd. That we,the Bishop Branch
Local No. 28 of Anderson county
Farmers' Educational and Co-operative
Union of America, are unalterably
.irrevocably opposed to foreign
immigration of any kind and in Any
manner whatever and if they do
come of their own accord let them
prove themselves by making good
citizens.

On June 23, 1907, God called
from this world the spirit of Rev J
ERichbourg,a well known and much
loved minister. His death has caused
a shadow of sadness to fall upon
his many friends. We do not forget
him. We have already wept and
mourned his tarly death and will
cherish the remembrance of his
? i mt. I
cnaracier anu precepw. xuc
church in which he has labored
and his example will long commemorate
his dear aud gentle spirit
that lived and moved among ns for
a little season, but now has soared
upward to a fairer clime.
Mr Ricbboorg was of a cheerful
disposition and his kind words and
bright smiles gained him inauy
friends on earth. Old age ex pec's
death and it does not surprise ns
when the death angel apjwars, but
when a young life, full of hope and
promise, is taken, wi feel like saying:
"God's will, not oars, be done."
Mr Richbourg's bnmble labor pre.
sents a more eloquent practical lesson
than the entire lives of many
whom the world calls illustrions and
whase names and deeds are blkzoned
npon its brightest record.
He was a student of the seminary
at Ayden, N C, and had just returned
to his home at Foreston, S C, a
few days before that dreadful disease
typhoid fever, carried him
away. We feel that he is at rest aud
among the redeemed, who are forever
singing anthems of praise in the
immediate presence of God, because
he has worked so faithfully. Though
his life was short, he has made bright
paths for many that were in darkness
and his life was an exemplary one.
He leaves an aged father an d moth.
er, four sisters and one brother.
May God in His rich mercy and
with His consoling hand comfort
and cheer them in their great grief.
But why should they grieve, remembering
that it is God's will and He
does not needlessly afflict His children?
Then let ui look beyond the
dark portals of death and see him
as a bright, shining angel around
God's holy throne, far from the empire
of death and change.

EDUCATIONAL AWAKENING. ~
Fourteen Districts Now Have Extra
Levy for School Purposes.
Several years ago, outside of
Kingstree and Lake City, very
few school districts of the county
levied a special tax supplementary
to the constitutional
tax of three mills for school purposes.
But, as the appended
list will show, there has been a
great educational awakening
throughout: the county, so that
now there are fourteen school ,
districts that have voted a spe- J
cial tax. , i
This speaks well forourcoun- j
ty and what it means for com J
ing generations it is impossible |
to estimate. !
At the present time, we are !
informed, the amount de j
rived from tnis special tax in J
the several school districts is i
about $5,000. In a few years we ]
hope to see every district get in j
line tmd vote this special tax. j
Those districts now included in j
the list are as follows. ;
No. 15?Lake City, 3 mills. i
No-, 16?Kingstree, 4 mills j
No. 18?Union, 1 mill. ;
No. 19?Hebron, 2 mills. j
No. 20?High Hill, 2 mills. |
