SPEAKER GARY WILL RUN Speaker Gary WES asked last night whether the report was true that he would b. a candidate for governor. He replied that it was his present intention to enter the race. This makes three candi dates (says the Record) who have formally announced their candi dacy-Governor McSweeney, Mr. A. H. Patterson and Speaker Ga ry. There are others yet lo heai from, the indication being that one or two others will enter the lists. LEGISLATURE NEWS. Durniug the past week the Senate agreed to all the house amendments to the dispensary bill and it becomes law as soon as the governor approves. No time has been set for the election of the board or the commissioner. The Jim Crow car bill as a mended by the senate was killed. The house refused to agree an d when a committee of free con ference was appointed the Fenate instructed its committee to recede from the amendment, thus revers ing its former action. By so doing the original Caughman bill be comos the law. ?It provides a 3 cent rate and one full coach for each race. In the house the appropriation bill was adopted. All State col leges received the full appropria tions as recommeded by the com mittee and the section was adoped without change. The South Caro lina college gets $27,500; Winthrop ?33,000 and $35,000 ad ii tional ; with $20,000, with $3,250 more for repai s and equipment and $6,250for back debts; tne colored college $8,000. All during the debate the col leges' friends were twitted with doing nothing for tho poor chil dren. Robinson, of Pickens, offer ed an amendment appropriating $100,000 to be distributed as the three mill tax is now distributed among the public schools. The college support gave this hearty encouragement and what was lhought to be a bluff was adapted by a heavy vote and the $100,000 appropriation for free public schools goes to the senate. If adopted it is said this will in crease the levy one and a quarter mills, which seems acceptable. The majority of the senate and house has not done unto Messrs. Williams and Boykin as it would like to have it done unto them. . The senate has adopted the house bill appropriating $10,000 to erect a monument to soldiers of South Carolina on the battle field of Chickamauga. DEATH OF MRS. WALLACE. Wife of Gen. Wm. H.

President Morgan, of The "V gi ni a-Ca roi i ii a Chemical Co Says The Selling Price ?is Lower Than Cost of Materials Warrants. Raleigh News and Observer. Richmond. Va.. Feb. 1,19 To the Editor: My attenti has been called to a communi tion in the News -nd Obsen published under date of Wedn day, January 31st, 1900, in ref once to the advance in the price fertilizers, wherein it is stated tl the farmers of Pitt county, Noi Carolina, propose to organize a fight the advance in the prices fertilizers, and by insinuation c Company is censured as the cai of the advance. I desire to make a plain stal ment of facts and conditions uow obtaining m the fertilizer tra and to show to the dealers a' consumers of fertilizers that t advance in the price of manutacu ed fertilizers is not only just ai warranted but is absolute necessary, and that the manufs turers of fertilizers could not a ford to sell them at the pri ruling last year unless they did at a very heavy loss. Now to get down to facts ai figures ; we will see what has real caused the price of fertilizers be advauced this year over lai Acid Phosphate being one of ti principal ingredients in all cor plete fertilizers, I desire to she here how much this article costs I make in excess of the coBt prii for the same thing last yea The advance in pyriteB, fro which sulphuric acid is mad is more than $2.00 per ton ovi last year. The advauce in Nitra of Soda, which is a necessai ingredient in the manufacture < sulphuric acid, is fully $8.00 pi ton more than last year. Phospha Rock has advanced a minimum < $1.75 per ton at the mines, and i some grades of rock the advan< is more than $3.00 per ton. The! three articles constitute what necessary tornade Acid Phosphat Put them together in the propi proportion and a ton of Aci Phosphate will cost $2.07 per to more than it did last year, BagB are costing UB 20C. por to more than they did last year, ? that the crude materia] going int a ton of Acid Phosphate is costin -approximately $2.27 more than i did a year ago. Every piece of factory supplie and machinery, roal, and every thing necessary to operate a fae tory, is from 25 io 100 per cenl higher than it as a year agc This will add certainly an addi tional 10c. to the cost of a ton o fertilizer, making in the most con servative and reasonable estimati possible a ton of 13 per cent. Aci< Phosphate, bagged . and ready fo shipment, cost the manufacture $2.37 more than it did twelv< months ago. Now let us look at complet) ammoniated fertilizers: We wil take what is commonly known ai standard grade of complete fer tilizer, running, say, 2? per cen of ammonia, 8 per cent, of avail able phosphoric acid, and 1 per cent of potash. As ? have above demonstrated, acid phos phate costs $2.07 more than las! year. This is equivalent to s little more than 10c. per 100 pounds. In making the 2?. 8 and 1 fertilizers, 1,200 pounds of acid phosphate wou'J. be necessary, so at 10c. additional cost per 10C pounds, the additional cost for acid phosphate would be $1 20. If cotton seed meal was used for the ammonia, it would take approximately 700 pounds, and cot ton seed meal is now worth $6.00 per ton more than last year, which is equivalent to 30c. per 100 pounds, and 700 pounds would cost $2.10 more than it did last year. Now add 20c. for extra cost for the bags and you have $3.50 per ton more for the materials than we paid for these same materials last year. If tankage or blood was used for the source of ammonia instead of cotton seed meal, the Advanced cost over las'year would be $3.20 per ton, as ammonia from taukag< or blood is now 60c. per unit higher than last year, so for 2? per cent, of ammonia tho extra cost ov^r last year would be $1.80. Sulphate of ammonia is the only other source of ammonia commonly used in the manufacture of ferti lizers. Twelve months ago th IP article was selling at about $43.00 per ton. We paid for it this we'k $62.00 per lon. Now I assert that the price of fertilizers has not advanced nearly so much as the price of raw materials going into them. Let UR see who is to blame if any one, for the advance of th se crude materials. Take Pyrites: We buy from Spain moretean threefourths )f all we nee. Nitrate of Soda: We buy entirely from Sooth America. Potash Stlts: We buy ?ntirely from Germany. So it can aot be said, that our company con trols or is in any wise responsible For the advance of these material, is we have no interest whatever in any of these properties, either directly or indirectly. Take phosphate ruck: We do nine small proportion of our wants )f phosphate rock, but we mine lone for sale and we buy from oth ?T mines more than two-thiidsof ivhat we consume. So no one will mppose that we were anxious to put up the price of phosphate rock. * As for cotton seed meal we have no interest either directly or indirectly iu any cotton seed oil mill, so we are not responsible for the advance in this article. Blood md tankage are made by the large packers in the West and we have 30 interest and no control over iheee products in any way. Why, then, should the Virginia karolina Chemical Company be blamed for the advance in the cost )f crude materials, and would it be busiuesB-like for us to want an idvance in crude materials, of ?vhich we have to buy almost en tirly all of our needs and of which ?ve produce absolutely nothing, ex ?ept a small quantity of phosphate rock? It is our aim and purpose to manufacture fnrtilizers as cheaply is possible and to sell them at as low a price as we can afford, there by stimulating a large consump tion of fertilizers and their general use for all crops. Let us see how the farmer is situated: He is getting this year from 2i to 3c. a pound for his cot ton more than last year, and we understand that for a e,roat deal of ?he cottou Reed the cotton seed oil mills are now paying 25c. per bushel. Are these advances wrong, and are the manufacturers who ar? having to use this product con demning the parties who produce them, simply because the demand is such that the price has increased so enormously over last year? At present prices the farmer can sell the cotton seed from one acre of laud and buy as much fertilizers as he usually - puts over two to three acres, even though there is a small advance in the price of fertilizers, caused by the manu factu?ers having to pay high prices for the materials entering into them. We prc pose to be perfectly fair and candid in our statements and believe that when au unprejudiced farmer looks into the situation he will realize that he is not charged as much for fertilizers as the cost of materials under present con ditions warrants.

T1MMER.V .AX, Trustees The experiments of modern phy sicians and scientists havp established thy fact that many of the germs of disease enter the body by the inhalation of air laden witl bacteria or microbes. These germs are very small but their work it deadly. Still many of them are comparatively harmless in health ; but as soon as an organ is diseased it is attacked. Tho experiinets of Koch and others have shed much light upon this important subject But up to the present time the culture of bacteria appears to have met with much better success than tiieir destruction. As we can do so little to destroy these minute enemies, is not the most sensible course-to strengthen and revitalize the system so that it may repel aud resift their destructive in fluence, and does it not seem v? ry titting that the revitalizing element should enter the body through I inhalation of oxgen which is at once a revitalizer and germicide?
