Dear' Brethren: As I haven’t seen anything in our paper from this local for some time, I will try to tell you about it. We have a very good local of true Union men though I must admit we have a few weak members. 'We have done some business through the State Business Agent. The low price of cotton has thrown cold water on our local. One member said he could not see what good the Union had ever done him. I think that brother has not taken the time and trouble to find out. It seems as if we haven’t the detennination to push forward that we ought to have. What we need is more spirit and more acting from individual members, and not so much waiting for officers to do everything. We need more Union men, now that cotton is low, than we did before. We will have to stand firm if we win the victory over the middlemen. If this is found worthy of print, we will try again. Yours fraternally, K. J. HAWKINS To lift up is better than to look up. Both are necessary to a for ward-moving life. If the merchants of the cities and towns are such good friends of the farmers why don’t they fix up a good market stand for them, so that they can sell their pro duct-direct to the contumer?
