their services for the cotton mills
as soon as they could get crops off
their hands. The other agent was
not interviewed by this paper, but
it is reasonably certain that he had
even greater success in enlisting
laborers.
A gentleman, who is one of our
oounty's most prominent farmers,
told us a few days ago that there
would be a great exodus from the
farms to the factory towns this
fall and next spring, the reason
being given that last yeur these
tenants received a very low price
for their tobacco, consequently
many of them could not pay for
J their supplies, and their landlords
had to carry them over. This year
the orop is short, and hardly any
of the renters will have enough
left after paying their debts to buy
winter clothes. Many lmve left
already, turning their crops over
to their creditors and not receiv
ing a cent for their year's work,
their case being hopeless for ano
ther crop, their landlords being not
willing to advance them again, and
they were compelled to go away to
find pasturage in other fields
than raising tobacco at seven cents
• pound.
It is indeed a sad condition of
affairs that in spite of our boasted
era of unprecedented prosperity,
the day has come when honest la
bor in the culture of our great
staple, will not yield sufficient re
tarns to justify one's fooling away
his time with it. These people—
and there are hundreds of them—
have worked faithfully, lived half
olothed and eaten only frugal ra
tions and the harvest that should
crown the land with plenty, finds
them empty-handed. Tired, dis
couraged, and out of heart, with
hopeless debts behind and uncer
tainty in the future, they close up
their humble cabin homes and go
away to find work at which they
oan live. Many of them know the
conditions in the mill towns—l 2
to 14 hours of work per day,
crowded quarters, unhealthy sur
roundings, unsanitary living, bad
water, bad air, fever and death. ~
And yet they brave them, hoping
for the best, knowing despair is
here.
