From inquiries made of inform- ?
ed mill man, cotton factors ami "
others, it i-t iscertainod tliut the *
actual price of cotton .s fully one 11
cent higher than the spot market.
This anomalous situation is true v
not only in Columbia, but prevails 1
throughout the cotton belt. The *
peculiar condition of affairs is '
probably duo to the holding move i
meat inaugurated by the Southern *
Cotton association at the meeting
In Id in Now Orleans recently. The i
farmers generally are abiding by V
the resolution calling on them to I
hold their cotton, an 1 as a result, ^
the actual value of the staple has
been force I above the ruling 1
quotations. I
The Charlotte Chronicle says of
this: 1
f
Coition h quoted at about 7C
tents on tbo local market, hut I
practically none is being sold. A (
representative of tho biggest c >ttou
linn in the country informed i
I
it (hruniclo reporter today that j
cotton couldn't bo sold front tbis
<
territory under cents, and he ^
added that it would bo hard to get
at I hut liguro. Good middling (
can bo purchased in Alabama and
A1 ississippi at from S-{ toS^ cents. j
Another anomalous situation ,
exists in the discrepancy between ,
spot and future markets. The ,
cotton factor referred to abovo
said: "At this time spots should
really bo about 10 points under
futures, but they are a good deal
higher?as much as 75 points in
some instances." This can prob.
ably be explained by tho fact that
the action of the farmers in holdtheir
cotton has divorced the spot
and future markets to such an exlent
that neither has any perceptible
influence over the other.
Talking along the same line, a
Charlotte mill president said:
"You may say what you please,
hut it is a fact that tho farmers are
in the saddle now. They kavo
things in their own hands and can
control tho situation as long as
they choose to do so. If they 6tick
to the holding movement and reduce
tko'ir acreage, they will be
sure to receivo higher prices.
Cotton is'not at its real value to
/loir l\A/innan ?????? r.v\! r. ???.? .
V4?%J ) i;wvuui3U rw IIIUIJJ' D|UUIIt3LO UIU
supplied. When their stocks become
exhausted, there will be a
much stronger demand, and then
thero may be no necessity for th?
farmers to continue to hold their
cotton. For tho next 60 or 00
days very little cotton will l c
bought by tho spinners, but the
factors who havo contracted to
make deliveries will bo forced to
go into the marko*, and they arc
the people who will be hurt."
It appears that most of tho
larger mills have stocks on hand
that will last for 60 or 90 days,
but many of the smaller mills are
not supplied. The situation is not
so bad in New EiOffl&nd. for the
mills ure much better supplied
with cotton than the Southern
mills are.
FIENDISH SUFFERING
isofteu caused hy tores, ulcers
and cancers that oat away your
skin. Wni. Bedell, of Flat Rock,
Mich., says: "I have used Buckien'a
Arnica Salve, for Ulcers,
Sores and Cancers. It is the
best healing dressing I ever
found." Soothes and heals cuts,
burns and scalds. 25c at Funder- <

Editor Martin, of the Easley ,
Togie?s sums up as follows the j
' ominablo debt bhlrker with ^
rhich every community has to t
onteud: I
Wc imagine that the meanest 1
eeling individual- wo won't say
run next to tlio one who is ju?t i
;otling over a drunk from "fust i
corn liquor ?is the one *bo
(ies around day after da> dodging
reditu!*, lie sees a man on the
triol whom ho owes probably u
m ill amount; it may ho for a store
econnt; rations that ho has eaten>r
it may tie for the clothes ho i?
soaring, or it may bo a doctor's
till, or wood or fertilizers, or a
ubscriptiun to his county paper;
> <1 .1 f li no liMLliince in n /I iin.
ii: (ii wutv 11 a a uwoiuooo iu uu \'j?
losito direction. He has no deire
to meet the niau he owes.
Now, mv poor deluded triends,
s this right i Is it honest ? You
jot the goods and gaye a fair
iromise that if accommodated, you
rvould settle by a certain time.
1'ou probably think it very smart
:o thus beat the one who has befriended
you ?one who has probibly
made a tacrifice in order to
iccommodate you ? yon, by your
ret, are not only hurting him fi-i
rancially, but arc making an eneny
of him, sod worst of all, you
rro making for yourself an unenviable
record. A record that will
usl as long as you live and cause
the blush of shame to mantle the j
iheeks of your children after you
rro dead and gone. So if you are j
:>nc of this class, go at once, if j
you owe anything, and give the 1
person you owo sutisfaetion. It
may nearly kill you to part with
r few dollars to pay it the one to
whom it rightfully belongs, but iu
ir day or so you will get over it
and feel so good you will think j
you are sprouting wings.
This thing of not paying your i
debts is all a very pernicious habit1
rather an affliction that might he!
I
termed '-short memory,/ and
j <
Strang cto say, it only works one '
way; for if anyone owes you, no
matter how insignificant an
amount, you almost go crazy until
they settle with you; but if you
owo another, it is altogether a dii|
ferenl matter. If approached on
11 i l ..^.. 1 ?:rt i ./r
luo suojeci you uuyu uimer ion
your cash at bomo or forgotten |
about the debt.
Now friends, let me suggest a
remedy, which, if adopted, we
will guarantee that your own
selfrcspect will be enhanced fifty
per cont. and the respect of your
neighbors many fold of that
amount. It i) this: In -tbo first
place, make no debts, unless necessity
forces you to do so; in the
next, having made a bebt, take a
nolo of it at tbo time and do not
rest until it is discharged.
Simply do unto others as ye
would that they should do unto
you. You owe a persou and ho
probably has a sick child that needs
nudicine, or hie wife needs some
of the comforts of life, thoy wait
(lav afser day thinking that yon
will pay them, tinaliy ho has to
mortgage hie property to procure
money that rightfully, you should
ho the one to procure. ilo, an
honest man is in ado to suffer while
you, a self-conscious scoundrel,
simply because the law ie such
that justico cannot reach you, go
on through life miserable, dejected,
leaving a trail of gloom and
sorro v in your wake.
