THE COTTON MARKET
There has been a consistent . advance
in the price of cotton for the
last two weeks. Cotton is now selling
about three cents per pound more
than it sold for two weeks ago. It
is hard to advise on the cotton market,
and it is never safe to do so.
However, there seems to be almost
a unanimous opinion that cotton will
sell higher. The present crop is not
going to the government's last estimate
by a half million bales, we
think. The farmers in many places
V #****% c-A*v>n /?/vH-/vn -onr? naiH enmp
lia V C OViU OV111V WWVVit |/M4M wvauv
debts, and many are not pressed.
Tie banks are in better condition
than for the past two years, or they
like the others of us have gotten
used to hard times, while planters
are showing a disposition to hold.
In addition to this something
like twenty, or maybe twenty-five
per cent, of the crop will be marketed
by the farmers co-operative asso^
ciations, and these are not now offering
cotton, and show a disposition
not to do so until a much higher
price is reached. .
These things induce us to believe
that cotton is going to sell at a considerably
higher price. The scramble
which is bound to come, and which
is even now on in part, will make an
increasingly strong demand for the
staple as the season advances. We
are not advising anybody not to sell
cotton. Everybody must be his own
judge about when to sell, but we
favor taking the chances for awhile
anyway.
Cotton at $1.89 is not yet in sight,
but these short crops make things
look promising.
SERVING ON THE BENCH.
Last week we were in Columbia
to attend the memorial exercises in
the supreme court in honor of-Judge
Ernest Moore and Judge Edward McIver.
And vrfien we thought of the
fact of these two stalwart men,
who ordinarily should have lived
many years, being taken at the ages
at yvhich they passed, we could not
help but reflect that the life of the
circuit judge is a hard one indeed.
His task is trying. The number of
men in the prime of life who have
been taken in recent years warns us
of the truth of this observation. A
man at 50 who goes on the bench
must figure that he takes from the
v span of years which otherwise would
be his some five or more years. He
cannot do the work and live long.
Of course some men must take
these positions. They are positions of
high honor, and when properly filled,
of great usefulness. There havej
always been men to serve the state |
at whatever cost and there will con-|
tinue to be until the end. But peo-j
pie should not grow to think that]
these men lead an easy life, full of
pleasure ,and with good salaries.
The salaries are all too small, and
the drain on the reserve energy of
fr
the conscientious judge is great. He
deserves to be well thought of by the;
people.
MORE HERESY.
If the Greenwood Index-Journal is
not the principal culprit, it is a coconspirator
in undertaking to persuade
the public that good liquor will
not cure snake bite. One day last
week, the Greenwood paper produced
an editorial in which it quoted this
and the other famous chemist to
prove that, instead of curing the ill
effects following snake bite, liquor
was a help to get the victim out of
the way.
The contention, it seems has been
consistently spread until it has been
noticed by an old hunter in FloridaThe
old hunter discusses the subject
in the New York Herald and declares
that the chemists are all
wrong, and that liquor will in fact
- ' ... *
cure in cases of snake bite. He produces
the same proof that Jim Richardson,
of Long Cane township, proiduced
to prove his assertion that "a
chestnut rail fence will last a hundred
years,"?he has "tried it twice.'
j That should be the end of the argubnent
unless the witness may be im)peached.
f
With these chemists, judges and
I newspapers, it won't be long until
j there will be no excuse for having
j liquor except for drinking purposes.
_
CARING FOR ROADS.
I
j The rains of the past two weeks '
jare telling on the new top-soil roads.
They are beginning to need work. In'
fact, as we have so often said before, j
they need constant work. Abbeville]
County has expended a very large|
amount of money for the building of
these roads and they are fast deteriorating.
Something must be donej1
before very long to keep them good
or they will n#t stay good. We have '
| said this before, but it will bear re- 1

BELTON MAN HURT 2
<
Belton, Oct, 17.?Clark Shaw 1
shot and painfully .wounded John ^
Banister in the 1 eg Sunday afternoon
in the Bethany section. (
It is alleged they were traveling s
in the road together with a brother *
of Clark Shaw when a dispute arose 1
over some money Shaw claimed *
Banister owed him, which resulted ?
in Clark Shaw drawing his gun. His 0
brother knocked the gun down, and
as he did so the gun went off, shoot- c
ing him in he leg, shattering the s
bone. As far as known here no arrests
have been made.
