Woolfolk's case will not reach the

One of the Trial* of a Post Master.
We have never seen this subject
pictured by peu or pencil or versed by
poet. Hut it is as full of fun and busi
ness as an egg is full of meat.
The Post-Master must go to heaven
If people are rewarded hereafter ac
cording to their goodness and pa
tience iu the flesh. We o»ly propose
to cite one single instance, and that is
but a drop out of -the great well of
the Post Master’s troubles.
A negro woman, our neighbor, had
a letter sent to her, it is supposed.
The direction was in a continued
baud, no separation of given or sir-
name and tlie town was written as if
the pen had been illled with ink and
dropped on the envelope. The letter
waslitmlly avertised, in a name the
Post-master, and assistants, made out
iu two days. Full fifty calls were
ipade by the woman or her friends to
get that letter, and tile Post-master
had to say fifty times, “I have deliv
ered it.” That negro woman will be
lieve to tiie day of her deatli that the
Post-master is a liar, when ho was
the sufferer not her.
All, or moHt of tills trouble, given
the Post-master, arise* from the vani
ty of negroes who have “learned to
write” just enough to make misery.
While in the Post-office last Saturday,
asking about the above-mentioned
letter, for the sake of an old family
servant and neighbor, Mr. Wilson
said, “Come here Mr. Nisbet and let
me show you how this trouble gets
up and grows. Here are two letters,
just directed in my registry window
by two negro preachers, attending
tlie Association here; if you can read
it I can’t. These letters will never lie
received but go to the dead letter of
fice at. Washington City nml die a
natural and deserved deatli.”
If negroes would get some com
petent white person to direct their
letters tiie postmaster would lie spar
ed much trouble. Hut tiie fools have
such a big opinion of themselves, as
soon as they can write big A and big
B, that they want to show off, and in
sist on backing their own letters. It
is a species of black-mailing that has
grown out of “Freedom,” and it will
follow tiie negro who liat} learned it
with more misfortune than followed
him when “Ole missus and tiie eliil-
lun” did his Writing on tiie plantation
forty years ago.
Postmasters, we sympathize with
you. We have to suffer from tiie bad
writing of “smart’’ white men—you,
from “smart” niggers. Shake!

Tiie Democrats of Montana are in
convention at Anaconda, willi A
Clarke of Butt county permanent
chairman. It is stated that the con
ver.tion is the most representative one
ever held in the territory. The lead
ers of tiie different wings have deter
mined to sink all personal differences,
and nominate men who it is thought
cun mil. It is stated that J. H. Toole,
of Helena, will be tiie nominee for

Martin Maguinis will lie ope of tiie

control of tiie Legislature.
A dispatch from Dayton, Ohio, of
August the 24tli, gives an account of
the sseuibling of tiie Democratic con
vention of Ohio, tile main object be
ing to select a candidate for Gover
nor. It is stated that the city is giv
en up to tiie parade of clubs and the
efforts of their friends, respectively,
to secure tiie nomination of Hon.
James E. Campbell, or the Hon. Law
rence T. Neal. B6th are very popu
lar and it is doubtful. It is a mum-
moth demonstration. Botli of the
candidates for governor are very pop
ular and each division of tiie party fa
vorable to one or tiie other Is sanguine
of the nomination or success of its fa
vorite.
The dispatch seems to entertain tiie
opinion that Campbell will be tiie
nominee. Both are good Democrats
and will cheerfully concentrate on the
one who may succeed in tiie lioiuina-
ntion. Hon. M. D. Harter will be
made it is stated chairman of tiie con
vention. There is nothing to indicate
more than a trifling friction in this con
troversy for tiie gubernatorial nomi
nation.
Later dispatches state that Hon.
•Tames E. Campbell was unanimously
nominated. A sound platform was
adopted, and it is believed that Mr.
Campbell is the man to whip Mr. For-
aker.

unexpected, yet tli“ address was a line

The bill declares that the dealing iu
futures is nothing more than gamb
ling, and tends to depress the market
value of agricultural products, there
by causing serious loss to the farmers.
Its provisions cover deals in cotton,
wheat, corn, oats, flour, lard, pork,
bacon aud other products, and spee.i-
11 es that an actual delivery of the

“Old Mu Plunkttt” Give* Advice To
The Farmer*.
Sunday Constitution.
“It would be er terrible fool that
would wish anything but good for
farmers,” said Pluukett, as he threw
the paper aside that he was reading
and pnt his speck* in his pocket.
“The greed of grinding monopolists
overcome their better judgment,
though, sometimes,” retorted Brown.
“1 see in tiie paper,” resumed Plun
kett, without seeming to heed Brown’s
remarks, “that the Alliance conven
tion lias passed a resolution for farm
ers to hold their cotton till they get
12J cents for it.”
“And we’ll do it,” ventured Brown.
“Thar's two Bides to every question
and it’s er darued sight easier to talk
ubout doing a tiling sometimes than
it is to do it,” said Plunkett, as he pro
ceeded:
“Cotton ought to bring 12J cents,
aud more too, but I doubt whether
it Is practicable for us to hold it and
force the price. If we had made
two million bales instead of six million
we could get twice twelve and a half
cents for it without any holding or
any forcing. But we’ve got tiie six
million hales iu sight and folks don’t
like to be forced—its human nature
to get bull-headed when er fellow's
forced—and how wo farmers can hold
our cotton any great length of time I
can’t see.
“How are we going to pay the
hands we’ve had lured all the year?
“How are we going to pay taxes?
“How are we going to get the girls
new fall hats and pacify the old
’omau?
“How are we going to do er thous
and things that has erbleged to be
done lessou we sell our cotton, twelve
and half cents or no twelve and a half
cent*?
“They’re erbleged to have oar
cotton,” spoke up Brown, with n
frown.
“When the war broke out,” said
Plunkett, “we had er notion that the
world would liave-to go nakid if they
didn't get our cotton, but it didn’t
prove true. The whole world wore
better clothes than we did aud kept
it up for foui years. I’m afreard if
we try to hold and force things the
fools might do without it four years
ergin, and darned ef I want ’em to do
it. I owe notes that I am bound to
pay and it takes money to do it, and
while I cuss cotton er right smart I
know it is ready money when you get
the bugging and ties on it.
“Then, ergin, this holding business
might prove catching, like the mea
sles, and the western hog raisers
might reiolute to hold their meat and
com and wheat till they get 12J cents
for it.
“Brown says the western fellow*
can’t hold their corn and meat and
wheat; they would starve to death and
be ruined if they were to try it.

farmers could run this
whole government; I wisli this from
my heart, bekaze what is to the farm
er’s interest is to every body’s interest,
hut they must be cool and practicable.
It won’t do to count, too much on tiie
pretty speeches of the fine speechmak-
ers every time.. 1 listened to speeches
in tiie fifties till I thought tiie world
would go pieces if they didn’t get
our cotton, but it did’t, and I’m
erfeared the darued thing would
wag erlong if we go into this Hold
ing business, and, as necessity is
the mother of invention, they would
go to ’sperimenting inother coun
tries and develop things till they
wouldn’t care er darn if we kept on
bolding.
“I worked for er fellow once ut $1.50
er day, and I decided that he must
give me $2 or I’d quit. He didn’t
give it when 1 axed him, but I was
sure he would have to d!> it if I’d be
firm and hold out—he couldn't do
without me, I thought and he thought
so too, but he got bull-headed wheu
he seed I was trying to force him,
and begin sperimenting and tiie first
tiling I knowed he had four or five
fellows that could do the work as
good>s me and were willing to do it for
75 cents er day and hoard therselves
and instead ofliurtiugthe fellow I put
him to thinking of how lie could get
erlong without mo and he was beue-
fltted and 1 had to hunt ernother
job.
“If we don’t mind how we go into
this holding business, these fellows
that want cotton will go to South
America aud to India and ’speriment
and develop and open up cotton
lauds till the southern cotton raiser
will be without er job and other
countries will lie benefitted. Reduce
tiie acreage. Produce 2,000,000 bales
instead of 7,000,000, and you'll make
no show of trying to force, and will
get twice twelve and a half cents for
your cotton without any holding, and
with cribs full of corn and smoke
houses full of meat we can let the
western fellows ‘hold’ and ‘starve,’
while we can boast of the finest and
most blessed country on God’s green
earth.”
