“Yes. Of this we have perhaps

counties have raised their quota,
Many others are at work, aud w 7 c
lioj»e to have the full amount paid in
within ninety days.”
“With the 850,000 actually paid
what, would be your next step?”
“To advertise for bids from cities
for the location of the exchange,
'V hatever city we select will become
a central trading point for 1900
Georgia alliances, embracing over
80,000 Georgia farmer*. The com
merciul advantages of this would he
enormous. The exchange would
not attempt to handle anything ex
cejit |>robahly 7 the heaviest articles
of trade. The buyers for farmers
therefoio gotting their meat and
guano from llio exchange, might
buy their crockery, dry goods and
all lighter articles of commerce from
the merchants of the city 7 in which
wo were located. There are other
advantages which will be developed
below. Wo will make it the interest
of any wide awake city 7 to secure the
exchange, aud concent rale the vast
business of the farmers within its
limits. When we considered all the
bids, wo would locate in the city
that offered hest advantages.”
“Once located, what would be
your next step?”
“Unless wo secure a building as a
gift, wo would either build or rent a
commodious house. Wo would not
need a central localion as our traue
would not dejiend on the passing
crowd.”
“And your building secured, what
would you do then ?’’
“Seeuro the very best business tal
out that could he had to administer
every department of tho exchange.
Those who predict wo would pul
new hands at the helm are mistak
en.”
••Your working force employed
and in position, what would vou do
next?”
“ Ihe first (lung would be to study
thoroughly the currents of trade.
Wo would take an articled common
use, such as plow s. Wo would find
out just how many hands u plow
passed through from the factory to
the field, and how many profits
werc added to the machinery cost,
Wo would then go to the tactorv and

“How Ilow «.»ld would you i-oii proportion oroi> .nion 3 vo,„- oui
:ue* to the demand?"
“ That develops the advantage of a
perfect organization. The state
agent would send a circular to the
138 county and* agents asking how many
plows what sort the alliancemen
of that county would want. The
county agents would send this cir
eular to sub alliance agent, each of
whom would report back, and the
county agent would report back to
the atate a^ciit. lr» a week s time
wo would have on tile orders for ap
proximutely the number of plows
that would be needed by our custo
mom during tho so.hm*u. Say that
these amounted to 15.000 of a cer
tain style of plows. \\ e would then
contract for them where we eould
bu } 7 them cheapest, and soli them at
actual cost of transferring from the
tactory to the county alliance."
“This would be your system of
“\cs, but wo go Anther. When
we found our alliances needed a very
large number of plows—ami 80.000
farmers would use a great many—
we would induce some manufacturer
to establish a factory in the city in
which our exchange was lo
cated, taking his full output
<0 the exleot of oor
Thi. would uve freight on the
plows, and often it would save freight
on the raw material from Georgia to
the north and on manufactured arti
c!e back to Georgia. We nave wood
and iron as cheap here as anywhere
in America. What I have said
about plows, simply illustrates the
whole system.”
“How much do you think you
could save by this direct trading?"
“On many articles an enormous
percent. On all articles eonsidera

do the same thing with farm itnple
guanos and all heavy lines
of fanneri goods. We do not think
of wiping out the middleman, hut
there is a cumbrous and expensive
waste of second, third and fourth
hands that w e shall abridge.’'
“How will you treat the subject
feMili*..™?-
“l hat is another point of interest.
We shall K cl lerms lhooil mills

The cotton seed that the farmers
^ fur8I1 yields to the oil mill an
i„ conio U 1 something like ?2o.
j exeetfcivo lowing 84 a Ion for handling—an
cost—that leaves a net
profit of $10 to the mill on ever } 7
ton. This is simply excessive. By
combining our shipments 1 of seed,
and our jnirehase of fertiizers, we
could build, or have built, an oil mill
that will jigree to take our seed and
give us in return a guaranteed
amount of cotton seed meal, or fer
tilizers, and based on such prices as
will divide with the farmer the ap
proximate ten dollars profit per ton
now made entirely by 7 tho mills.
On all lir.es ot heavy goods we pro
pose to bring the farmer as near as
posisble to the factory, and deliver
him goods bought at spot cash with
simply t he cost of a single exchange
added.”
“How much business can your
exchange transact?”
“Wo should not aim to do a great
volume of business. Wo want the
exchange to be a great option house.
This would secure prices on a lead¬
ing article, say meat, and advertise
to the farmer. “Wo will sell meat
for cost, and cost of handling at, say
eight cents.” He goes to Americus
for ' example, and the merchant
charges him ten cents. He Hays:“l
can buy of the state exchange at
eight cents. If you will sell me as
cheap, freight added I will buy 7 of
you.” If the merchant agrees, we
want him to buy of his local mer¬
chant. If tho merchant does not
agree to meet our pr'ees, then the
farmer can get relief by 7 coming to
us.”
“llow will you carry those mem¬
bers of the alliance who are without
individual credit?”
“We have not *'ked that out yet,
but wo will proiC. Tc~X4f& , , J.-p * what I
undestand the plan to be.
Bet us say that a sub alliance at
Cyrils has forty 7 members. A por
tion of those can pay cash for what
thev want. A portion have got
mercantile credit. A portion are
good mcH but poor, and without
commercial credit, and a portion
have no credit and deserve none. 1
divided this suppostitious alliance
into these tour classes because they
are the classes with which
we will have to deal. Now, the
alliance meets to make up its
order for getting meat and imple
meats. There is no trouble about
the men who put up the cash,
There is no trouble about the men
who have good credit. Then come

T, Ihe trade agent of f the sub alliance
then makes a sub alliance note for
the entire amount minus the cash.
The cash with the sub-alliance note
is then forwarded to the trade agent
of the county alliance. It reaches
therewith the cash and papers of
ttic other snb alliances of the
ty. The agent then takes the notes
0 'j the snh alliance, discounts these
notes with those banks with which
an arrangement for this purpose has

all together to the state agent,
This is placed to the ere lit of the

such thing as a ‘time price. The
members who give notes get goods
at precisely the same price as those
who send cash, deducting solely the
exchange paid to the bank for dis
counting their note.’’
“Now work this credit system
backward for me.”
“See how simple it is. The state
exchange sells for cash. The conn

But many of them will remain in

Ilarritou en (hr Blair Bill.
M- a. • on ti .gap urr h .
It will be observed that though
address dwelt upon the clangers of
ignorance and the duty to encourage
education he said nothing to indi
cate that he favors fedeial mterfer
ence in this matter. He said: “If in
any of the states the public security
is thought to be threatened by ignor
auce among the electors, the obvious
remedy is education. The sympathy
and help of our people will not be
withheld from any community strug
gling with especial embarrassmeute
or difficulties connected with the
suffrage surname if n the me remedies rcmeuies proposed pruposeu
proceed upon lawful lines aud are
piomot promoted a bv iy just iust and and honorable lion ira )le
methods.” There is no Blalri.ni in
tliis. It is an assurance of popular
sympatiiy and aid to designs foi the
education of the masses, but there is
no hint that it is the duty or concern
ot toe general government to take
hold of such enterprises. In 1884 Mr.
Harrison made in the, senate a speech
in which he clearly indicated what
in his opinion were the “lawful lines
upon which efforts for popular educa
tiou should proceed. In opposing
the Blair bill he said: “The only
permanent reliance for the education
o{ tb « “^ 88
taxation a m t the h e states, eveiy one con

people of any school district.for the

evinces an interest in education and
guarantees a careful and intelligent
supervision. Only a local supervis
ion and interest will bring these cou
stituencies that are now so backward
m the race for education abreast with
ot her states. In my judgment there
could be no worse policy than to
throw in a single year into those
st ates $15,000,000 out of the national
heasury.’’

The Waltz and German.
A correspondent to the Athens
Chronicle writing on the above sub¬
ject very sensibly and pointedly says:
There is but one sentiment ex-press¬
ed by all civilized people on the
dance, and that is, that it is a most
ihsidious demoralizer of female mod¬
esty and purity. All enlightened
heathens condemn it, and have, ages
ago, retired it from their social so¬
ciety.
It may be replied that the higher
society waltz and german. But do
not the negroes and ignorant classes
dance also? Position ought to be
predicated of purity, but is it?
Potipher’s wife, David and Cleopatra
were not more chaste because more
elevated. If position was chastity,
there never would have been so many
bastard kings on European thrones.
It requires talents and labor to
make a good actor in a circus, pulpit,
or theatre; but savages, monkeys,
and professed Christians, can dance.
It is said to be a pleasurable exercise,
Then, why not boys german with
boys, and girls with girls?—There
certainly can be no real pleasure in
the use of feet and legs in violent
physical exercise. That has no
meaning in the movement simply as
a movement.
Tlien tbe fascination and pleasure
!nnst be found in something else,
^ be pleasure often all in the
presence of sex, and that presence
under conditions and relations of the
sex in liberties not allowed in decent
private life. Would any man be al

and in the parlor, take his neighbor’s
wife or daughter’s hand in his, and
then the other arm aroud her waist,
and gin her round for hours. Such
a n attempt in any decent family
would bring out shotguns and pistols,
j t bas been hawked around in the
papers tliat Mrs. Cleveland danced,
j doubt it; but , r she did 80 far forget
her self, I hope she may never be re¬
turQed to her former position. A
manora thin who can sit by and
. d , another mother take t-k-e his
a » see man man
wife’s hand on his, ’ and the other arm
a,OLlnd , ber ''aist, and her neck and
head laid on his shoulder, and then
side by side gin around, has not got
manhood enough left to make a lirst
class constable in a one-horse town.
This brings us face to face with -the
main i SSU e )C an southern society allow
a class of advanced society to meet and
german and take liberties in the ball
room, in and sock; r. T: t.icm q p r*
allowed in private life, and then al
low those advanced classes, after
germaning all night, to return the
next dav and tako tlieir places in so
cietv This is the issue made direct.
if the better classes and the church
can rec ° gnize society the waltz
an d german, then what better are
they than the class that germans?
The P ul P ifc and church are constituted
by genera l col,8ent the custodians
both the morals and proprieties of
s °c5ety. Ifaclass in society can waltz
and round-dance and german all
ui « ht and then take off their ball
costumes and put on their church
dress, and on Sunday morning dare
to tread with german feet the Holy
Courts of God, and take the Sacra
ment, at the hand of preacher or
elder, then where is the line of dis
tinetion to be drawn. Would not no
society or church, be better than such
a a mixed mixeu mess mess of ui pottage punage. Would wouiunot not
the cause of morality ~ be advanced bv ^
closimr b such organizations altogether g
and say we , have no church. , , For v
a mon«- .To the dancers themselves thev
have no respeu reaped either eitnu for mr such church
»r minister. The nearer a church
gets to the ball room ami world, the
nearer it j 9 to death. The farther a
church gets from the world the nearer
it S e ts to life, and respect of the wor Id.
Dancing people have no respect for a
dancing church.

Rrporlril That ihe President Postpone*
the Premier's eKeoniiuendntien.
Washington, March 12. —Senator
Quay was very happy 7 today. As
he left the capitol to go down town
in a hired two-horse hack ho flung
a handful of small change among
the gamins standing around and
enjoyed the heartiest laugh he has
had since the Chicago convention.
He would not say what pleased him
so. It was not the beauty of the
day 7 for that was no greater than
the beauty of yesterday 7 . It must
have been the report that Blaine
had had his first wrestle with Har¬
rison in the cabinet yesterday over
White law Beid and the rest of
Blaino’s foreign slate and that Har¬
rison w:>n the first fall by quietly
hut firmly postponing Blaines rec¬
ommendations indefinently.
Senator Don Cameron must havo
heard this good nows too, for when
he came out of the capitol a little
later he drove off smiling in a hired
coupe without once observing that

REASON FOIt HARRISOn’s COURSE.
It is stated that the reason for tho
delay in tilling the English mission
is that the successor of Lord Sack
ville has not as yet finally and for¬
mally 7 been appointed, and that
this administration does not think it
proper that we should be represent
ed by a minister in London until
Great Britian is represented by a
minister in Washington.
It is stated that when the appoint¬
ment is made Whitelaw Beid is not
likely to be appointed. President
Harrison is said to have some one
else in mind for this place, although
he is willing lo send Beid to France.
This, it is said disarranges Blaine’s
slate for the principal foreign mis¬
sions. But 131tiilie’s friends say 7 that
he does not take it hard and lias no
intention of resigning. He has
learned, however, that Harrison is
President and that he will have his
own way about things.

on the conditions ot farming in the

for the negro proper

that negroes who were laborers a few

President Harrisons’s inaugural
address is a plain, straightforward,
temperate state paper. It is chiefly
notable for the absence of individual
forceful ness and of positive or
aggressive assertion, but it is equally
remarkable as a Presidential deliv¬
erance that studiously 7 avoids offense
to any honest convictions. Indeed
had Cleveland been re-elected he
could havo delivered Harrison’s
inaugural address without criticism
from his Democratic supporters,
On the vital tariff, tax and surplus
questions, he simply repeats Cleve¬
land’s utterances in general terms,
excepting only 7 that Harrison makes
protection a more prominent feature
of his revenue faith, w 7 hile Cleveland
maintained the protection of labor
as an indispensable incidont of our
tariff policy; but Cleveland could

what he says, which is not to bo

to party expectants that the “clean
sweep” policy is not to be accepted
by his administration. He is honest
enough to say that party services
shall not he an obstacle to abminis*

clares that the efficiency ami integ¬

the question in glittering platitudes
but he emphasizes his pledge not
only to enforce the civil service law
in its letter and spirit, but express¬
es the confident hope that his civil
service reform shall transcend tho
mandates of the law.
