Col. Samuel Kirkinan, tue noted cot
ton crop investigator of Alabama, ??t?
males the cotton crop this season at
0,000,000 bales. His estimate is being
generally endorsed by thc cotton ex
perts throughout the South.
t The press dispatches tell us that the
delay in the release of American pris
oners by the Filipinos is that the latter
want to supply them with clothing be
fore setting them at liberty. Yet, our
imperialistic friends contend that wc
are fighting only savages incapable of
reasoning, much more of governing.
If this be savagery, thank you for more
savages. f ^_
A convention of cotton growers and
Southern bankers-js called to beheld
in Atlanta this'inonth. Its design is
said to be to bring thc farmers who
raise cotton and the bankers who have
the money with which the crop is han
dled together for the protection of the
cotton growers' interests. from the
speculators in cotton. Wc trust that
- some good results may bc accomplished
by the convention.
With a salary of $13,500 a year, and a
widower at that, it doesn't seem as if
Admiral Dewey required thc assistance
of friends to build a big residence in
some fashionable locality. There are
millions of people in this grand and
glorious country of outs who would bc
only too glad to have the admiral's sal
ary with the thirteen thousand thrown
off, who work day by day for a small
pittance, yet how many of these per
sons who are foremost in raising this
Dewey fund would contribute a dollar
to build even a shanty for one of these
? fellows'? You would find there would
be but a precious few.
* AdmiraLDewcy, in an interesting in
terview, is quoted as saying in refer
ence to the Philippine trouble: "Ono
great trouble out there has been that
General Otis has tried to do too much.
I told him so. He w.ants to bc G enera!,
governor, judge and everything else
to have hold of all the irons. No mau
can do this. This is the great trouble.
It is enough for a man to do ono thing,
but when a man tries to do everything
and to be everything it is a little un
certain what thc result will bc." In
other words, it is as expected, the Gen
eral has just gotten too big for his
breeches. Since he has added to his
othermultitudinous duties that of hero
making, news from the front is very
meagre. The supposition at the war
j department is that he is out in search
of a clay suitable to the very delicate
? composition he intends creating.
Booker T. Washington, without ques
tion the brightest negro in thc country
to-day, said in his address in Atlanta
last week that he could seo no differ
ence"between that slavery which com
pelled man to work for nothing and
that which denied him the right to
work for something. Those unctious
northerners who prate about thc'stain
of slavery, yet who lynch negroes who
come into honest competition . with
them. should ponder awhile on th's
philosophic utterance. In fact, there
is much food for thought throughout
his entire address. His recommenda
tion that negroes avail themselves of
ewry opportunity to become better
citizens by selecting a specific trade
and studying it to proficiency is pre
cisely in thc line of sure progress and
development. If his labors are moro
evenly distributed in the workshops,
tho mills, the mines, thc fields, con
struction, Sec., one industry is not so
easily pyramided by a sudden influx of
labor, and there wiii bc none to deny
him the right to follow his legitimate
trado% If the State recognizes the ne
gro as a permanent citizen; one who
will have to live with us and share our
fortunes, even for tho next generation,
it behooves her to put such manual
training into his hands as will lit and
equip him for branching out into other
fields and learning a trade. Thc little
smattering of "book Farnin??' given
them is a decided disadvantage. I f tho
same sum is spent toward teaching
them something really useful, wo will
make a better class of citizens and take
a long stride in thc direction of thc
solution of the race'problem, lt is
better and cheaper, as Mr. Washington
says, in view of the fact that every
idle negro has to bc kept up directly
, or indirectly by the white people,
for thc State to give its money t<>
the erection of schools ol' industry
for the idle negroes than to sup
port them in idleness by donations
or with tax money after they become
criminals. When you educate the
hand you reach thc head, for a busy
hand makes u busy brain, but "an idle
brain is the devil's workshop." j
The most glaring example to-day ot j
prostitution of jnstico is the abuse of
the optionary compromise for ?Time
provided by the penal code of thc State*.
The linc feature ot' satisfying, or more
properly bribing, justicie is wrong in
principle, for the reason that it en
courages crime in thc rich, who can
pay fine, but degrades thc poor (no
?lore guilty than his more fortunate
brother) by thc imposition of a sen
tence of imprisonment or road labor.
Which is only just and equitable pun
ishment under the existing order of
Society. It is manifestly unjust to I
the family of the depraved reprobate, j
tined time and time again tor viola- j
lions of his country's laws, to allow !
him to pay a fine that represents prob
ably the last crust ot' bread his depen- ;
?ant ones have in the world. As ?
matter of course, he parts with it cheer
fully, because his false pride revolts at
any other basis of settlement, and be
cause be is so self sacrificing that ho is
willing for his own dear ones at home
to suffer hunger rather than undergo
the humiliation of seeing him linked
by ball and chain'to some poor trans
gressor on tho public roads. Tiiere
are thousands of well-dressed crimi
nals on our streets, in our offices, in
public places ol' trust and honor, and
on the farms. They know not thc value
of a dollar#and part with it with as lit
tle remorse as with a rich uncle. Little
does it. disturb their tranquil dreams to
hear the familiar "twenty dollars or :50
days." lt may be that by the particu
lar infraction, Iiis gain by spindling,
gambliug or misappropriation, exceed
ed the line many fold, and thc clever
sharper, knowing the limit, was a
knowing, willful and premeditated
violator ot* the law for gain. They
reason on the tine from thc beginning .
as a liability, and gauge th ur actions j
accordingly. The Saturday night sport j
who paints the town red and forks over j
his little V on Monday morning will j
lind better occupation when the possi
bility of settling on a money basis is
removed. He is not too proud to stag
ger on thc streets and pay for the priv
ilege, but he will draw the linc at
swinging a pick and shovel in plain
view of passers-by. If wo would pre
serve justice and equality und conse
quent good feeling between capital and
labor, we must place both on a plane,
wc must work Dives by thc side of
Lazarus, and if the one should not care
to-be yoked to the other,- let him learn
the lesson of obedience, lie may then
choose his proper .station. Let the
Legislature at its next sitting take
cognizance of this pernicious evil, and
so safeguard it ns to rob it of its
vicious tendencies.
(irand Canyon on North .Hain Sinei.
Mi:. EDITOR: We would suggest to
the city authorities that thc Grand
Canyon of upper Main Street be either
enclosed with a very substantial fence
or establish danger signals at. conven
ient distances along its rugged precipi
ces. The latter plan may be the more
feasible at this time owing to the un
desirability of floating another issue of
bonds to complete t he-long circuit of
fencing from A. G. Means' southern
corner to li. C. Laughlin's southern
corner, licll buoy stations, light
houses, and a string of red danger lan
terns, together with a large rope strung
around the edges of thc gulch wc think
will be amply adequate for thc present
needs, though there arc not a few who
advocate the widening of the pictu
resque canal about six feet on thc east
side in order to convert the narrow
pass now used as a street into a fresh
water lake and establish a free ferry
across its glassy bosom, lt is claimed
by tho advocates of this latter scheme
that thc six feet broadening will not
encroach upon the sidewalk on thc
east side of the street. An expert from
Kalamazoo is expected here nt any
moment to calculate the cost of .each
rcspectiveproposition.
Later-The expert above alluded to
arrived yesterday and in driving along
thc narrow pass above thc canyon, Iiis
broncho shied and precipitated him
down thc awful depths. He was heard to
hit the bottom exactly live hours after
ward, hence Ave are unable to give his
estimates this week. CITIZEN".
DJ Way of Illustration.
The press of the country has recently
exercised itself very greatly over tho
question whether a physician would not
be justified in laking life painlessly to
put an end to torture which must
inevitably end in deatli in a few days
or even in a few weeks. Such an act
would, we believe, under the criminal
statutes, be called murder. Acting
upon one of the most often repeated
phrases of the profession itself society
adopts the belief that "so long as
there is life there is hope," and de
crees that tho helpless and hopeless
invalid shall lind no friend in the hour
of his great necessity who will put a
period to his sufferings.
)Vc happen to call to mind just at
the moment a mangled, writhing body,
pinioned beneath h wrecked locomotive.
The overturned cars were in llames,
which were rapidly eating their way to
that tortured mass of humanity. There
was nota shadow of hope of extricating
thc man from his perilous position.
Had it been possible to rescue him he
would have died in a few bonis from
his injuries. He knew this as well as
did the spectators; he saw the Hames
approaching, and in his anguish he
cried aloud to tho bystanders to send
a.bullot through his brain and put nu
end to his misery. It was a spectacle
to haunt one's dreams for a life time.
Thc men who watched it wore actually
sickened by the horror of itali, anil
yet there was not one of them who
dared comply with the request of the
unfortunate * creature. They stood
there, while their lips were ashened
and their knees smote together at the
terribleness of his fate. They worked
like demons to save''the crushed body
that it might sillier n few hours longer:
they fought the advancing Hames in u
frenzy of despair, and when they had
exhausted Inman efforts they cri?dout
in prayer for Divine interposition.
When those things hud all been done,
and done to no avail, thc llames licked
ii]) thc blood ol* tho poor crushed body,
wrapped the writhing members in theil'
torturing embrace and at last brought
ihepcaee and rest that lind been denied
by mortui hands.
Tell tho story u> yow neighbor and
he will say thc man's request should
have been granted; he may possibly
claim that he himself would have fired
the shot, ll is not impossible, too,
that you may agree with him; SHU had
you both been there you would have
acted justas those other men did, for
"so long OS there is life there is hope/'
and thc taking of life isa prerogative
which mortals must not assume.- Weirs

monument of our culture and literary
aspiration built and placed upon ;i per

may contribute towards this consum

standard works during thc school year,
and by degrees are making readers out
of them, thus cultivating the spirit of
culture which will lind expression in
alter life. Wc have about exhausted
our store (d' books and have no finnis
to buy more. ( Mir shelves must be re
plenished with books of standard
worth. We need magazines, literary
journals and pamphlets. Von can help i
us. Will you do it ! As a suggestion : j
Let those who can afford it and who !
cannot, send say one dollar lora sub- \
scription for a year. Von can get books ;
through your children and if you have j
none in school you can come or send
for what you want. Those who have
books that they can sparc send them to
me; many ol'you subscribe to maga
zines; let us have them when you read
them. We will do our part-furnish a
room, a librarian andas much money
as possible each year. Wc desire to

The Opening Display Thursday and Friday of last week
was the biggest kind of a success, and its praises are still
ringing in our ears. We thank the ladies for their apprecia
tion of our efforts in their behalf, and for the many pleasing
compliments they paid us. We feel, however, that our mag .
ni?cent showing merited all the praise it received, for it was
probably the finest exhibition of Millinery and Bress Goods
and Merchandise from all of the Departments that we have
ever had, or that anybody else in this section of the State has
