UNJUST ATTACKS.
A good many people are abusing
Mr. Cleveland and his administra¬
tion at a very lively rate just now,
but it seems to us that the abuse
is rather unjust. Let the situation
and facts be clearly stated and un¬
derstood : the continued with¬
drawal of gold from the treasury
for shipment to Europe and for
hoarding in this country threat¬
ens to deplete again andagnin the
gold reserve as well as to destroy
bimetallism finally and bring us
to silver monometallism, when the
present silver dollar would lose a-
bout half of its value. To protect
the gold reserve and prevent the
destruction of bimetallism, Secre¬
tary Carlisle prepared for the con¬
sideration of Congress n compre¬
hensive currency system, recogni¬
sing State hank money, giving a
food deal to silver, and providing
a safe and elastic currency. This
measure Mr. Cleveland in his
message to Congress in December
urged that body to pass. He gave
it bis fall endorsement. No doubt
he had s|>ent many hours with Mr.
Carlisle in helping to prepuro it.
But Congress killed it. Tho Re¬
publicans and Populists voted sol¬
idly against it, the one to get the
Democrats in a hole and the oth¬
er because it would re(teai tho 10
per cent, tax on State bank cur¬
rency. Enough Democrats or
so-caHod Democrats, voted with
them to shelve the bill. What
these Democrats meant we may
not know precisely, but it is'sus-
pectod that they were extreme sil¬
ver men who wanted to tiring the
country to tho single silver stand¬
ard. Every Goorgia Congressman
voted for it, and one of thorn said
it was the most scientific and lib¬
eral system of hanking ever pro-
posed 'in the American Congress.
This wRs Judge Lawson. But Con¬
gress killed it. Then Mr. Cleveland
said; “that was my bill; I en¬
dorsed it fully, and I believe it
Was what we need ; but you don’t
seem to think so, and if ypn will
pass' a * bill that- embraces your
views of what, should bo done, 1
will cooperate with you.” But
Congress did nothing. Time was
passing, the gold reserve was get¬
ting lower and lower and another
bond issue to rehabilitate it Lo¬
carno a necessity. Then Mr.
Cleveland sent another message
to congress, saying in effect that
as more bonds had to be issued he
would like for Congress to author¬
ise Mr. Carlisle to issue 50 year 3
per cent, bonds of 920 and $50 so
that they could I e invested in by
the peopli^generally, and so that
the burden of their redemption
Would fall on the next generation,
which generation would also be
the more greatly benefited bv
them. He also wants the notes
that draw the gold reserve out of |
the treasury to tie retired on pro-
aeutaiion, instead ot being placed
in circulation again as olton as j
presented, and thus coming back
continually to deplete the Irons-
ury. Tliis is what Mr. Cleveland
wants don< under the eireum-
Htancee, though he would much

MUTUAL IIKLP NEEDED.
j It in not the part of wisdom to
try to disguise the fact that the
people urn hard up in a pecuniary
sense. In the South the low price
of cotton has kept a gr-at deal of
money out of circulation by
king it impossible for the farmers
to meet their obligation ns they
exported to and when tho farmers
get into trouble the rest of the
people suffer with them. If the
farmer cannot pay tho merchant
who advances supplies to him
the merchant in turn cannot pay
the wholesale dealer, and
wholesale dealer cannot pay the
manufacturer, and the manufac¬
turer cannot Imy tho raw mate¬
rial for his factory. Trade comes
to a stands) ill, ami every business
and profession gets hurt. The
assertion that nearly everything
and everylmdy are dependent on
the farmer is something more than
an assertion—it is a fact; there¬
fore it is also true that when the
farmer jirosperH, nearly everything
and everybody else prospers.
The farmers have not prospered
lately. Cotton lias been sold be¬
low the cost of production in thc
South, and in the West corn and
wheat have either failed, or have
brought profitless prices. The
people generally therefore are at
Hea, and they do not know which
way to turn. They can do one
thing, however; they can help the
farmers. It is not only their du¬
ty to do so,’but their best policy.
They owe it to the farmers and to
themselves. They should he as
easy as possible with them in (lie
matter of debt; they should as¬
sist them all they can to make
another crop; and they should
cooperate with them to the utmost
limit in plans to make the farm
self sustaining and cotton a sur¬
But (ho farmer must do his
part. He must not expect to be
pulled out of the hole by legisla¬
tion ; it is not the province nor is
it in the jmwer of the.government
to support its citizens* but on the
contrary the people must support
the government, He should not
shut his eyes and go it on the old
plan thut has brought him to
grief; his neighbors should hot be
expected to plant less cotton and
raise more supplies to give him a
elianee to raise cotton all over his
place. Ho won’t make anything
nt that this yonr. He should farm,
on business; cut down home ex¬
penses by raising everything near¬
ly that he eats, and with the cot¬
ton money pay his debts and buy
that only which he cannot raise,
outside assistance should be given
him, but after all the result de¬
pends mainly on himself. Let us
hope that everybody will act up
to these tilings this year.

ty were discussing the all absorb¬

Atlanta Constitution; when tlw
first one Haiti: “1 have about con¬

said : “Well, I am glad to hear
that. I hear so many men say
the same thing that I am going to
plant every acre of my land it
cotton and get 10 cents a pound for
it next fall.“ The first man then
said: Well, I believe I will, too.
This will be the year to make big
money on cotton.” This is an ac¬
tual occurrence. The two men are
well known citizens of Wilkin
county. It is a fine illustration of
the trend of the farmer’s thought
on raising cottou.

barracks at the M. G. M. &

we are by no means competent to

as we esteem this dear old college
with an affection that words are

Department of Agriculture,
Atlanpa, FjO. 1. 1863.
The painful lesson of tlu past year
has taught us that there are certain
imuiTUable laws of our calling which
we cannot transgress without events-
ally paying the penalty. For years we
have presumed on tho almost unbound-
ed resources of our section and hate
apparently escaped some punishment,
but the time has come when we cannot
longer evade tho issue.
And, however difficult the task may
be, W6 must, if we would prosper, bo
guided by the teachings of some agri¬
cultural economy, and so regulate our
business that no matter what the fluc¬
tuations or depression of the cotton
market, we are at least secure of an
independent home living for ourselves
and f amilies. To enable us to take
this position, it will become our duty,
no t 0 uly to study everything in our
reach pertaining to scientific and suo-
cessful agriculture, but to give our at¬
tention also to many questions of politi¬ Of
cal as well as agricultural economy.

REnUCTION OF THE COTTON ACREAGE
Is just now perhaps the most important each
and the most pressing, becau.so
farmer must decide in tho next few
weeks, if he has not already done so,
hiB individual responsibility iu this
matter. Many have realized the error
c f our protitiess one crop and many

tions broad and deep for a more inteu-
e ive au«i i-easouable plan of farm man*
agement. Hut others tuo still bosita-
ting, the force of habit is strong, and
tRey argue that if there is a general re-
auction of the area the price will be
good, and it is so much lines than easier to work
0E the accustomed to venture
on new and-heretofore untried plans.
It is to these still unconvinced farmers
that we will appeal for a careful con-
tideratiou of this question, not only as
it may affect them individually, but ns
