I. BVSlf. MS, HARPER, - Editor, Business Manager. SKW BERNE, N. C, APRIL 8 1886. ltered at the Post office at New Bars, a second-class matter. N O, FROM MASTER OF STATE GRANGE ' From Southern Cultivator. . I only ask a email space to throw out a few thouehts for Patrons? of Husbandry, and also for farmers . ; clubs and agricultural societies, would ask, "Is there any necessity for an organization of farmers?" j If you answer iu ine amnnauve: "Why don't you prove your faith by your works!" If you answer in the negative, "Why not devise some .vlan to check the movement and prevent the waste of time con sumed in the association of farm ers!" Let as see how the nutter stands. Do propitious seasons and abundant harvests bring to us, a fair remuneration for the unceasing labors bestowed upon the occupa tion we have 'adopted! We aas vAr that. thAV An not. and will not so Ions as there are grasping hands ready to appropriate the results of oar labor and price the products of our industry. We know there are vicious schemes '(some of which have the sanction of both establish ed custom and law) that do appro ' priate that which is not theirs. One evil lies in the selling ot "fa tores'' on our cotton, corn, wheat. - tobacco, etc. before the seed fpr the next crop are deposited in mother earth; this is well calcu lited to subvert Ithe intention of uouess iraue, ana is un use to -our vocation. I might go further and say that this a grade of vice that recognizes theft as a polite art, en riching the fewf and impoverishing the thousands, j We also find influ ; ences at work even on the silver question and in efforts to double postage on. fourth class matter, . which is unjust to the seed-growers of the country, and will work o hardship and great inconvenience trt nlfliifpra in rpmntfl scrtinrm These are only a few among the evils. Then we have been so long flat tered as a generous South, that forgetting economy with all its roles and precepts, we have heedlessly and recklessly gone into a fashion able credit and mortgage system that is about to bankrupt both .creditor and debtor. This has oeen me rage nniu in many inscan - ces home credit has been destroyed and. by the hundreds we go to for- eign money-lenders, borrowing at a ruinous rate of interest,if perchance we might thereby reduce the old mortgage, Now, with due regard to opinions expressed in the J ana nw ftltimnirtv . T a Tn f hnrmifrtilvr J ViHtrV.WI , - A. ...II VUIASMU1J convinced that in less than twenty four months, suit will be begun and many of our best citizens, who should be the masters of happy homes, will oe nearly if not quite pennilesss and homeless. I know it has been publicly asserted that the reason why as farmers our condi Hon was no better is . lot the ' want of work, and the idea conveyed that the farmers of Georgia were an in dolent people, i I deny the charge It is true, however, to some extent, that very little importance is at tached to the education . of pnr children, which signifies to my mind inac we are wining ior professional gentlemen to do our thinking for in a an A ttrxk havr inn ? rVT-f - few. mnnA mssu nv sum ? v uv tiguui jw . s via 14' ing, thinking and conversing with each other, to improve our minds or Erepare ror anything except hard cks, And then little Importance is attached by man to the social en joyments of the familyr-the pleas ores ot the home and the olavation of the morals of the people 'Nor has much been done to put to prac tical test theoretical ideas ' brought out by science.' The consequence is we are fat behind' in ' many je spects and are : the sufferers from teach of the causes .enumerated,'for which we are either directly or indi rectly responsible, in this, that - we have not used the proper methods fit our command. -; ? ' - - - this to do with the ' question first propounded about organization!'1 I answer that if the . points ubove presented are truths or. facts, we have in each of them an obstacle to overcome if we .would prosper, or have onr Industry to be a progres sive one. I also take the position that we : . cannot - overcome them alone, nor can we single-handed compete with powerful monopolies, great corporations or run associa tions. We can expect to succeed only through associated effort,' and this association Bhould be composed of farmers and only,, farmers, : ,11 sliould allow none : to participate in its proceedings and share its bene fits except those who have adopted our vocation as theirs.1' A memorial or demand if yoa. prefer) opon oar law makers will . not be respected autii we are thoroughly organized; but, to the contrary, all class legis lation (and there is a great deal of it) will be against the best interest of our industry, i ro man can .oe oi 6oeial privileges. Uut few have the nerve to adopt in his family that ' economy . (now demanded) withont help from his neighbors. Very few are able to educate their children tinder the plans usually adopted, and such methods must be used as cannot be used uy us sing ly. We must do something to check the infringements upon our rights and the appropriation of our values by tihe associated efforts of others. We-ask all fair-minded thinking people to reflect, and see who are the best paid of all classes: your an swer will be in favor of those best organized. We think that for information, self- protection, and the advance ment of their, respective inter est, the merchant, tkQ editor, the lawyer, and ia tact ail occupations should bo well guarded and protect ed by associated watchfulness; and, as a general rule, these are sharp enough to have their interest pro le sted by an . association, partisan in its nature, so far as to allow no odo outside the profession a mem bership therein; which is both right and proper. This granted we are ready to conclude that if -'sauce is good for gander," it will be good for goose also. I wish it understood that such association of farmers does not im ply communism or agrarian ism, but simply self-preservation, the en hancement of all , our material in terests, and the prevention of the centralization of the nation's power and influence by a few autocrats, If such associations were composed of farmers alone, we could rid our selves and our industry of that "tomfoolery" (flattery) with which so many have been doped by pol ticians during election years. We are weary of all such and should resent it as an insult to our Intel ligence. We sometimes feel that we are as much entitled to a voice on the silver question as the nation al banks of New York, and the post age law affects as as well as the other classes. Again, the tariff law of our land touches the humblest prodncer of farm products in Geor gia, and we feel that Mr. Hewitt of New York city, is no more eft' titled to class legislation than this hnmble producer on, the farm. ' We think if several changes in our modus operandi were made, so much abuse of the negro would be oot of order and unnecessary. I mention now only one change among the many. Adopt such economy in ail our business that . will enable "buckle and tongue to meet," and in purcnasmg let ns go cautiously on toe wholesale, co-operative sys tem, with no injustice to dealer, and so that the dollar of the poor man will buy as much as the dollar ot the rich man. I do not desire to complain of our lot, or make war upon other classes, but when I see the farmer to educate his sons and daughters, pay the interest on his loan, his children in rags and shoe less, his cotton house and corn crib, his milk cow and potato hill levied on and advertised for sale by the constable, and be unable to bestow a cheerful smile upon his wife, the partner oi nis ion, i cannot remain silent, And when I know: that many of them will before long be tenants for capitalists, I can but raise a voice of warning and appeal to farmers for -en associated, 'co operative effort, and pray for the needed relief, through Buck means. I can but suggest to the farmers of Georgia a revival of Grange move ment, a close ; observation of, the principles . of co-operation advo cated by the Grange,' as the onlv rock of refuge to which we can go for safety. t ,.., -7-- ! - T.X1. KlMBBOUGH, W.-1I. Cataula, Ga. 'i ' - The Mississippi Traged, , ' Later reports': from Carrollton, Miss., concerning the recent killing of a number of negroes and' the wounding of ethers in the 'court house there during the" trial of a case between a white man and a negro, put a different face on the occurrence. ' The only justification for the whites, according to - the first and most favorable report of the affair, lay in the alleged fact that a brother of the colored man Brown, who had had the original difficulty with Liddell. fired on Lid dell in the court house, and that it- was only after this that the whites opened Are on - the negroes who were massed ; around .Brown. : It now . appears that the fact of. Brown's firing cannot be establish ed at all, and that it is flatly denied by . Liddelrs ' brother, v who . was watching Brown when the. firing began.' So that, if the later reports are true, as they probably are, the action of the whites on the occa sion lacked nothing of. being a de liberate and wicked butchery. -The Southern , press and. Southern peo ple make a great, mistake In sop posing' that it is their doty to de fend or apologize for such, fool and unprovoked murder. True,, to let the facts out is to bring odium and distrust upon the whole Booth,' bot they will surely come out anyhow and then those who have become the apologists for murder fall under the same condemnation, with Che murderers. Moreover, to make ex cuses for the conduct of these bloody beasts, is but to encourage them in crime. If they . are made to feel that poblio sentiment in their sec tion is ibehind'. them, they will go on - to new excesses, this tnmg could not have taken place m North Carolina. Its recurrence anywhere Indicates an unhealthy : state of pnblio opinion. ; These murderers, so far from being : pnmsned, win never so much ad be arra'gned. A depraved public sentiment is their certain protection iron the conse quences of their guilt, and until this sentiment becomes educated up to that point where it can Bee that it is as criminal to murder a negro as a white man, occasional I recurrence of these deeds of blood may be expected. There is great difference between this affair and a sudden fight be tween the races to which both Bides are consenting. While greatly to be deprecated, one can still see some sort of excuse for a campaign riot,' for instance, where either side is particularly onensive ana aggres sive and , Where both are inflamed by the passions which political con tests too jfrequently beget. "Bot this appears to have -been . nothing short of a wicked,' deliberate con spiracy to pot . men to death with out cause. The President of the United States has taken occasion, very properly, to express his horror and detestation of the crime where by these, black men lost their lives, and it is fun time for the enlight ened conscience of all the country to utter its protest against , such deeds and to brand those who com mi t them as the red-handed ' mur derers that ' they nn--Statesville Jjanamark.
