county The good work will continue Miss Mabel Wilton spent several days last week with Wingo frfewfcjl City Department Store vs Home Merchant One of the many growing evils of the country today is the city de partment store In our town where- we have the best of stores the mos honorable of merchants and where goods are sold at a margin so small livingtodollars are annually sent to the da partment stores of our great cities Farmers expect our merchant to pay them a fancy price for butter eggs and poultry for their pumpkins potatoes apples and tomatoes and then they take the money received from our home merchants and send it to a city department store There Iis neither economy nor honor in such a manner of doing business You can write it down in your hat that as a rule the city department store is a swindle Our citizens who patronize them should be compelled to ship their butter and eggs to them There is not a business man In our town who will riot duplicate their prices for the same quality of goods and he who turns down his home merchantr to patronize these fakirs is far from being a loyal patriotic and gold citizen Long Journey of Miss Naifeh to Jein Brothers After many

South t John L McLaurin of South Carolina I who since hisrelirc neat from the Senate has devoted himself 1 energetically to the industrial de velopment of his Statet and of the South in an interview at Washing J ton sayshThe South is suffering from a scarcity of labor that Iis more notice able this year than everbefore On my plantation in South Carolina for the first time within my memory some of my negro cabins are empty The negroes are leaving the farms and are going elsewhere Thousands have gone to the North to be to beome hotel waiters and porten and servants generally Many thousands more have been drawn away by the great era of railroad buildings in different parts of the country Other thousands have itaken places as hands in manufac toriesi in cities and towns What iis jleft is not of so good a quality as we had in the generation just passed jIn slave times the negro was com pellod to keep regular hours and take care of himself and thus he was a valuable chattel Now the young negro gels into all sorts of dissipation which seriously impairs jhis usefulness The result is it next to impossible to get IIIIIItl capable labor on the farms of SouthcWhat wilt be the result In my judgment cur planters will have to turn to Italian labor The negro has proved a political failure and iin now he is demonstrating an Indus trial failure New and better labor will replace him at the plantations What Is to become of him I dont know Senator McCreary and His Friends Enthusiastic Senator James B McCreary and his ftlends are highly pleased overt the result of the conference held at Louisville last week in the interest ol the reehctton of Mr McCreary for Senator Those present went away feeling that the Senators chances vue benefited by the meet ing Active work will now begin all

limttrd number of these blanks are being atn to the various hill tar Institution of the State in the hope of securing the services of some of the students whose military experience makes them

enrollment of the guards men of military experience who have served either in the Army Navy or Marine Corps State Militia or Mill tary Colleges will be given first considerationCapt nter who has been de tailed by the Navy Department to command the Exposition Guards has established his headquarters at the Atlantic Hotel in Norfolk Va His career has been a vtry interest ing one and owing to the wide experience he has had in the public reception of foreign guests he Is perhaps the most efficient officer that could have been detailed for the positionThe guard will be organized as a battalion of probably four companies- one of which is to be mounted Each company will be organized and commanded as are the United States troops Ths uniforms are to be of a simple yet impressive design con sisting of a gray blouse and trousers I of a military cut and the regulation Army Campaign hat The mounted guards are to have the same uniform with the addition of riding breel ties and black strap leggins A

allowances for uniforms subsistence quarters medical attendance and equipments Beside the foregoing conditions each applicant will be required to undergo a physical examination before he is selected

second to none among the Amateur leagues of this section took a de tided slump In both last weeks games with Huntingdon being badly defeated on the home diamond Huntingdon has a strictly first class team of all home players and put up a good stiff game of the proper article Both players and heir manager Jack Jolly merit much praise in the support of such a pleasing combination of gentle athleticsThe to carry off part of the honors but without success This t am Is composed of the cream of Kentucky as gentlemen but rather inferior as ballplayersWe intend knocking on our own boys but they need practice and much of it if the city intends supporting a team There Is splen did material nght here In the limits of this lair city but there are two things that are necessary to a suc cessful ball team first choose the right players then practice them Mr Roney has done all in his power to give the citizens the proper stuff on the diamond but he needs support from every citizen at all times Organize a team of strictly local players then give them support and it will succeed but not otherwise The scores of the two games were 13 to 3 and 10 to 0 respectively in Thursdays and Fridays games In favor of Huntingdon New Swindle Being Worked in Rural Districts An exchange gives the following warning to the farmers against a swindle which is being worked In the rural districts A

verse in the book of J Romans This beautiful subject was treated In rare simplicity without the appearance of specious arguments but carried on its face the hallmark J of truth itself Just the plainness of 1 his words won the attention of the 1 entire audience i and held it until the end of the discourse J This sermon by Bishop Wardwas a highly appreciated treat to those who had the pleasure of attending and the desire of every one Is that the Bishop may again visit our city The School Hoard placed in order f Wednesday night with a Memphis firm for steam heating appratus to be

nucleus at Hazel Dell meets 1st and 3d Wednesday at 3 p m Everyone is cordially Invited to at tend these meetings The farmers are under no legal or moral obligations to feed the balance cf the world at an unfairly low price If there is a place of commerce anywhere in the world where the producers of food and clothing supplies commonly called farmers arc not ready to revolt against the absolute domination of non producing classes in pricing their products I am not aware of it That the old and thoroughly bad system can speedily be changed the producers regulate the marketing of their products and make their own prices I am thoroughly convinced The farmers own the earth We may safely claim that farming exists by divine right The farmers first possess all the food a d clothing supplies which are indispensable for the life and comfort of human and domestic animals their products constitute the greater portion of traffic for railroads and ships nearly all the factories work on MW material produced 01 the farms and the products of the factories are largely consumed by the farmers or in equipments to handle farm products It is clear the important position of the farmer in his relation to all other industries and how closely nil other industries are inter woven with that of agriculture It is the same way all over the world in all civilized countries If any one class or any people of any one industry is entitled to distinction as the preferred business or itr people the select of the earth that business is agriculture and the people are the farmers If anyone class should prosper more than another this distinction should fall to the farmers But this Ia not an attempt to raise one class over others it is not even an attempt to make all equal but to equalize ecu ditions so all may have an equal opportunity to secure a fair share of rewards for efforts put forth All movements for the benefit of the masses hid opposition at the start An idea may be born and promulgated The originator of the idea may be stoned to death or hung but if the idea iis good and has vital force it grows and will not down An evo lution once started never recedes but developes into the perfect flower or fruit This is an age of organization and cooperation The oU saying com petition is the life of trade is changed to cooperation is the life of trade An individual would be strong enough if he was the only Individual In the world However if he is one of a large class he Iis weak and the larger the class the weaker the individual The farmer class is the most numerous hence the individual farmer is the weakest individual when he stands alone In union there is strength The greater the union the greater the strength The farmers united would be the greatest union greater than all other unions combined They would represent a strength and knelbeforethird power to assert itself but will be the first power in strength and importance The bestirring and awakening of this last and greatest power is the most significant event of the present generation No in dividual no matter what his position professional industrial or political can afford to ignore its birth and make calculations on its rise For wnile it is not a power that will con test for mastery by bn te force in the fields economic or politic it will affect all in its demands for equity and the equal rights of man Th entrance of the American Society of Equity into the economic problems L tjJ of the world through which the Third Power will rite marks an epoch The awakening of the agricultural classes the organization of them into national and inter national cooperative bodies which Iis now being accomplished will remove agriculture from the list of uncertain industries and place it on a basis of certainty for prices equal to that enjoyed by the bit regulated manufacturing or commercial enterprises The undertaking is great but since thn correct plan has been evolved the desirable ends in the ordinaryevolution of the times will work out as surely as the fruit follows the flower The revolution taking pi ice In prevailing customs and laws might appall us if it were not for the tact in the working out of this stupendous movement every thing wliliwI toward brilcrments physically politically morally so chlly and Indus tiiously The hope of the author is that the soil owners and workers will be aroused to a sense of the true condition of their industry j that agriculture in America and throughout the world will soon occupy the high lposition to which it is entitled when iit will
