Russell, of Massachusetts, done one good act recently that ought to go a good ways towards securing his re- election. We refer to his vetoing the bill authorizing the Connecticut Riv Railroad to water its stock $135.00 < every $100.00 worth of share**, The amount of stock issued is the basis u|«m which the public is taxed, nothing more nor lees than robbery to permit the corporations to tax the i*eople on fictitious values. The abnormal condition presented of our staple crop bringing in the market leaa than the coat of its production, de manded a change in onr methods, and the comprehensive view of the acreage devoted to the various crops, exhibited by the tabulated statement, shows that the farmers have done all in their power under present conditions, to meet the exigencies of the case. The large area planted in cereals is a appai . where facilities for eupplyicg the North ern market with vegetables are afforded and large cities offer a borne market. ai> ipetns has been given to truck farm ing and gardening, is also a source of satisfaction. Here is the way the Alliance ia dying in Iowa: In the last 100 days there have been organised 372 Alliances. In many of the Northwestern State*, the organiza tion b increasing faster than it ever did before. In the HtSte of Washington there b said to be whole oountie* where there are not 2.5 voters who will vote against the Alliance demand*. It looks now like the reform movement is going to WWp 1 the Republican party of the northwest from the lace of the earth, and yet they call it a Republican scheme to break the Democratic party and let the Republicans in. If it b, the pros pects now surely indicate that the scheme b going to work just like Ha- mans gallows, and the schemers them selves will be the one* to be hung The Allbnce delegates to the Demo cratic 8tate Convention of Sooth Caro lina number 22G against the straightouts 96. It b expected that the South Caro lina delegates to the Chicago convention will work for the principle* of the Ocala platform. All Farmers Should Belong to the All!- When we remember that the farmers have been forced to organize because all other classes are organized, and there fore have the power, if they desire, take fdvantage of the unorganized and consequent helpless condition of the fanner, It seems strange that any farmer will stand aloof from the only organiza tion which promises, any relief to the de pressed Industries of our country, to be presumed that what b for the wel fare of one farmer benefits every other fanner. Why, then, should only a part ealbt for a fight that is to free all alike? What would we think of the man who would not help defend his own home, but shot himself up securely in hb own _ house and let hb neighbors fight intru dms from hb door, and not only not sist in resisting the power of those who seek to despoil hb and hb neighbor’s home, bat actually ridicules those who art trying to purge the community the would-be robbers or assamins? This b exactly what those farmers are doing who refuse to go into the order, and rid- icnle the effort* of those who are striving to bring about needed reforms. There are farmers who, being "well fixed In life themselves, and not feeling the hand of oppression so keenly seem to think that things are all right, and that the forusen’ efforts* at form are unnecessary because no ref b needed Bat whrfo trusts are broken, as m^y have been, and others Mailed and pqprewted from forming, as the form madddtjy was, these same fellows who will oot'tqm a hxnd to wrist} reap the bewdfcs^aB > thjV did fat binding twine- just the s£ne as if they had helped brealrthe combine.

In nearly every pert of the State experiments are being made with a number of different varie ties. After toe crop has been gathered the adaptability of our soil to thb plant will be thoroughly tested. While ad vising experimental planting, we have always suggested that a small acreage he tried nntil it has been sufficiently demonstrated that tobacco can be made a money crop in Georgia, and while the acreage thb year b much larger than heretofore, we do not believe any loss will result, and we trust the experiments will prove snccessful.
