The Abbeville Press and Banner*! BY HUGH WILSON. ABBEVILLE, S. C., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 189$. ESTABLISHED CONTRIBUTED LOCALS.; Whnt "91" Bee? and Heart* on His Rounds About tbe City. Abbeville, S. C., Nov. 1,1899. ABBEVILLE'S BUSX MARKET. I o rnlllnn In , I o I 1 ?7 O n f 1 m n B1 n C 1 D VOHUU 1? iwii.aj* Iu v.? ..,, _ price from 63-4 to 7 '4 eta. Offerings less than previous week, farmers boldtDg wltb expectation of better prices. Business fairly brisk, wltb floe collections. Tbe past few weeks of flue weather has added much to tbe cotton orop, especially late cotton ou red lands. On sandy lands the crops are all gathered except lu low places where a remnant still remains.] Up to tbls date Abbeville has received In i round numbers about 4,500 bales. About 4,000 of tbls Dumber bave been taken by the Abbeville Cotton Mill. ABBEVILLE'S COTTON MARKET A3 COMI'ABED WITH OTHER MARKETS Webgar much said about prices paid for cot. ton at Other adjacent towns, being more than ' Is paid In Abbeville, but tain is cheap, -<nd facts are stubborn things. The whole icUt of tbe matter from wbai we can learu in simpiy this?other markets put a "premluuin od "floe" cotton, while they "reduce" the prices on medium grades, so that the Impression "/ goes oat that better prices are being paid; t when tbe truth of tbe matter is, that upon the whole, the market that pays according to grade, is the market that always pays tbe best all-round price. If your ootton Is properly graded by intelligent buyers we believe you will always average as good a price In Abbeville as In any other market. We have heard it said that the Abbeville Cotton Mill holds the price down to order to fill their conhimprt nrw>n low Drlced cotton. wbeD the truth as per their own statement in, that tbey have already bought, sufficient cotton to fill all their contracts, and no one more than the Abbeville Cotton Mill would be glad to tee ootton advance, as suoh would mean mon K ey to them In the advance on their manufactured goods. Tne truth of the whole matter when brought to a proper solution Is, that human nature Is never satisfied; the more we get the more want, for Instance when the cotton orop was planted It was thought It would bring boat 6 ots. per. pound, and now as the price Is more than 88 per. cent over that, we are yet ansatlifled, showing that should the price advance to 8 cts. many would bold for 9 cents, and probably In the end take less. The cottoD orop Is already much better than was at first expected and the price Is even more than the most sanguine hoped for, so that In the gener eral wind up the situation will be better than hoped for, and the prospects for the future brighter. Many of our farmers have already x paid up their 1899 account, with balances carried over from 1898 and still have something for themselves. juet us quu grumunug nuu growling, and look on tbe bright side, and life will be bappler and brighter thereafter.
