Pinefield Advertiser HOS. J.ADAMS,.EDITOR WEDNESDAY, OCT. 18. SIT STEADY IN THE BOAT ! We beg that our farmerB do not get rattled because cotton is at a stand still just now. Hold on to it and you will get higher figures. We quote from an Augusta cotton firm, DavisoD & Fargo, of this date, Oct. 17th: "The weakness in New York aDd Liverpool keeps buyers out of the market as they expect to get cheap er cotton by waiting. They say there ie a great deatj held bacfc ou the farms and that it will all be sol? as soon as people see the price is declining. There has been little or no buainess doing here for the past few days so it ie diffi cult to say exactly what is the market, but we believe that l-l6c under quotations is about what cotton would bring. Port receipts are not so light as expected but ..the interior movement is very moderate except at Memphis. "The buye* is playing a waiting game. This decline is what every one expected and the market may go still lower, but in the long run we believe the short crop and the demand that must necessarily re sult from enormous consumption will put prices much higher than they have yet touched. If our people do not -'Sgt steady in the beet" however, tue cotton will be out of their' hands before they know it. Factors here are stub bornly resisting all efforts to put the market down." The State Board of Control has been held up in their action of re moving commissioner Douthit. Through his attorneys, George Johnstone and Geo. E. Prince, a "Writ of Certiorari" has been ob tained from Judge Aldrich order ing the board of control to show up in court in Columbia Monday, Oct. 16, the whole record of the pro ceediogs which lead to the removal of Mr. Douthit. This action on the part of Judge Aldrich may lead to further developments in this 1 latest of dispensary scaudals. Oh ! that the day of reckoning of those who have been fattening off of this scandalous business may be near at hand.-Ex. Last Thursday (says the Ander son Advocate) was somewhat of a field day for Anderson in the cot ton seed business. Over 8,000 bushels were bought by the two mills at 22 cents a bushel. Mr. Albert Bowie, of Corner township, drove in with 26 wagon loads, ag gregating about 1,500 bushels. It p?n?aiy meannesses Dan OuztB says that/when Chairman Hazelden would pocket a dollar from the sale of a bottle of contraband li quor, "a halo of benefiting glory would overshadow his counte-j nance." Here is English morel picturesque than Kipling or Hag gard-and we may not see its equal or like again .Till the Rudyards cease their Kipli ng, I And the Haggards ride no more." Gen. Wade Hampton paid a busi ness trip to Washington last week, He says that the ^democratic party will win in the great national con test next year, He believes that Bryan will be renominated and that the Southern States will all send solid Bryan delegations to the next national convention. i Let us know your wants, get our prices, just give us an opportunity and we will do you good. You never will regret it if you do. Re member the address, Augusta Car riage Repository, A. Rosenthal, Prop'r, Augusta, Ga. Important Proceedings of the Abner Perrin Camp. Headquarters, Abner Perrin Camp U. C. V., Edgefield, S. C., Octo ber 3,1899 : A call meeting of the Camp was held to-day for the purpose of . electing a Commander in place of G. B. Lake who had resigued, and removed to Lexington, Ky. The Camp was called to order by Adjt W. D. Ramey, who stated the ob ject of the meeting, and requested Genl. T. W. Carwib to preside. Nominations were then ia order for Commander. Genl. Carwile in a few very complimentary re marks as to the gallantry of John Kennerly as a Confederate soldier and his fitness and ability to fill the place, offered his name to the Camp for commander, and Mr Kennerly was then unanimously chosen as commander for the balance of the year, in place of Capt. Lake, and in taking the chair thanked the Camp for the honor, and urged the members to co-operate with him in keeping up the organization. Maj. R S Anderson was then elected as 3rd Vice Commander, and O L Dobson as Commissary, in place of L Charlton and W H Burrel, deceased. The following was offered by comrade W N Burnett, and adopted : Whereas, this Camp with much regret accepts the resignation of Capt. Geo. B. Lake as commauder, one who took so much interest in keeping up the organization, and devoted so much of his time and ?n^rgy towards keeping alive the is tl tl E ri Ci hi tc lit th ac bi th ra Wi WI fo ju Tr THE N?TfON?L BANK OF A?IGlJSTA L.

The ever present negro question is disturbing the peaceful political situation in New York, where pupular sentiment against the equality of the races seems to be quite as strong as in any part of the south. In New York, par ticularly in Long Island, the whites insist upon separate schools for their children and the closure of the white schools to negroes. The rule has been very unpopular among tho negroes, as being in line with the Jim Crow car law in operation in most of the South ern states, and they have vigor ously opposed it and any separa tion of the races, and have insisted that their children shall enter the same schools as the white boys and girls. After long skirmishing the matter has at last reached the Dourts. One Cisco, a colored man, refuped to send his children to tb aegro school. They were arrested igain and again under the school aw of New York, which makes ittendance at the public or ?rivate schools obligatory on all children. On this point issue has >een joined. The colored people >f the neighborhood met in mass neeting, resolved to make a fight o get admittance to the white chools and raised a large fund to ?st the constitutionality of the aw which shut them out of these chools. The lower courts decided gainst C?BCO, and said that if the egroef. were given the same aciiities for education as the 'hites, if they were provided with chools eqahy as good, they had 0 cause of complaint-it was, in ine, a recognition of race prejudice, nd that the white people, who iipported the schools, had a right )have separate accommodation )r their children if they were Illing to supporta double system f schools. However the decision 1 the court may be, the episode lows very clerly that race sen ment in the north and in a dis ks t republican by a large major y, is the same aB in the south. ; is not a question of climate or )liticfl.-New Orleans Democrat.
