The Farmer's Union says measures Which bid i'air to almost revolutionize the present methods of exporting the cotton crop to the foreign mills and] spinners were recommended and heartily endorsed by the Farmers' Union National Convention Commit tee, composed of one man from each cotton State, which met at Memphis, Tenn.. August 10. To every member of the union will be sent an agree ment for him to sign and forward ft the local secretary of the union pledg ing his-individual support in a direct marketing of the present cotton crop. The committee strongly advocat ed shipping direct to the foreign j mills and spinners, which 'they claim-j ed could easily be accomplished by f urniehihg the same business advant ages as the heavy exporter now gi\*es; to the*mills.

Hurley, died at 4 o'clock Saturday morning at the resi dence cd' Mr. L. Bennett; who married her gr:;:id daughter, on west Russell street. Mrs. Harley was the oldest resident of this city, being; !>" years of age at the time of her death. She-sustained in juries by a tall about five years ago, since which time she has been confined to u railing chair. Up to a'iout 10 days ago her general physical condition had been very good lor a person so well advanced in years but it> seems that a general breakdown was suffered. which ended in her de mise Saturday . Mrs. Harley's long, life was one of great activity and usefulness. She ?was' a. true friend to the poor and 'needy.and many'burdens were light ened by a wise dispensation of her bounty. The only relatives who sur-' vive Mrs.. Harley are a son. Mr. \V. I.. Harley. two granddaughters, Mrs. I,. Dennett and Mrs. C. P. DuPont of Spartanurg. and a niece, Mrs. Samuel Dibble.

Xeeces. ?rc Cream Festival. There will be an ice cream festi val at the home of Mr. W. C. Brick ie, near Cordova on Friday after ueon and evening for the l?enefit <>t '?!:?<? tlili School. The public general ly is invited to come and have a good tiiue; Of Much Silverware and Many Other Articles! Burglars are again at work in this city, and it is about time that some of the light-fingered gentry are run down and punished. On last Satur day afternoon or night the residence K. Sease on Glover Street jwas entered by robbers and much j silverware and other things carried off. From an examiation of . he pre mises, it seems as though the burglars (entered from a window as the glass was broken therefrom, in.the rear of ? the house. I For sometime the family of Mr. Sease has been up in the mountains jand he was home only at night. When jhe went home on Saturday night he found that his house had been entered and many valuable pieces of silver and .other articles had been carried off. I From the appearance of things the! j robbers seemed to have made sir] j thorough search for valuables, as: everything was in a terribly mixed lip j state. Upon examination Mr. Sease I found that silverware and other j things had been taken to the amount! of six hundred dollars or more. He Immediately notified the police, who are now investigating' the robbery; and we nope they will succeed in run ning down the robbers. It is ot known exactly when the thieves entered the house, but it is j said that the colored cook, who visit ed the house every day to look after j the plants, noticed when she visited j the house at four o'clock on Saturday i afternon that t window at the rear j of the house seemed to be broken j open, and from this it is believed that j the house was entered during the day. The robbers may have been In the house when the cook was in the yard and verandas. Not only were the most valuable pieces of silverware takem. but a number of articles of clothing is missing, and the wardrobes and j1 jureaus were ransacked, and! the con- 1 :ents scattered about on the floor. It s also stated that there may be ccr- i tain of the jewelry belonging to- Mrs. , 5ease which may be msssiing. but , ivhich Mr, Sease cannot state posi- i :ively at present. Some ornaments . were broken and scattered al*>ut, . which showed that the robbers were | deliberate in their action. Other- ? wise they would have hardly taken , ;ime to break' up things that could | possibly do them no good. ? i There is a mystery surrounding j this .bold robbery, and the ques tion is who did it? All of the doors , to the house were found locked, and \ with the exception of theM>ack door. ( the.keys were all in the3 locks on the ] inside. There was jio Jieys to the back door, but it .^s^iocked. So the robbers must have entered the < tiousc through the window that was found broken in the rear of the house. \ ? ? ? iW rTLKD WITH TREASURER ?}? ? '. ' ?

R HARRIS. j President of the South Carolina Far j nars L?ion to the Fanner* WJu Make the C'otlon. Why is it that cotton has not reach [ed the minimum price set, 10 cents' ! Is it too Jate? I answer. No. What then, is the cause of its being down' The producer alone is to blame. H< is ready at all times to listen to sJ [he hears about the bear side of tot jtou. but fails to look into the true : situation and the- condition of th< [crop. He docs not realize that eottoi Iis now scarcer than it has been ir : twenty-live years, 'while the de thane is just as great, when; we consider tin [supply of raw material. It. must be ; remembered that last -'ear's crop wat short more' than four million bales in view of this we can wuich no othei conclusion but that the produce* him self is io blame lor our not reaching the minimum before this.. He has be come 1'rigMened, at this IHuff of the bear element, the spinnen* and specu lator, and lias taken their assertions as facts. Their first bluff was the:mills' run ning on short, rime. It was. necessary for them to da? this, as it was impos sible for them t'o secure saw ma-turial to run on. Last .voar's short crop forced them to curtail, not their, pro duction but their consumption. Cot ton was not to> be had. They nvsf. bluffed you in making you believo'Chat they could not sell their goods-,, and frightened you: again. While- tlm;,r have goods stored'in their own'ware houses, the commission : houses in; New York and otner centers have-less, oods than they have bad in years.Nor until the entire surplus is constitut ed in these centers will the goods bei taken from the local warehouses. I want to impress upon the farm ers that now is the time to hold your old cotton, as well as your new. If cotton is held off of the market throughout the South for the- next: sixty sixty days the brokers and; speculators will be compelled to givt the price in order to fill contracts iold to the spinners head. You-can Jo this by putting your notion. Im bonded warehouses and borrowing money on it. Money:fit now plentiful! for legitimate purposes. The continental mills are short of r:otton and there fs a demand for ac tual cotton from this souroe. while the offerings are'small. It is getting harder every day to buy cottoni for prompt shipment. The supply in the American mills is not sufficient for twenty days, if that long. The New England mills will soon have to buy otton or close down. They have been buying from hand to mouth lor the last three months. I know of one undred bales of cotton sold last week by oue mil; Fifty bales of this week to a mill that was closed: down, while the 'other fifty went to another mill'.. These two mills had to have this cot ton to begin work with on the ifth lost. All the mills which have been closed down resumed operations last Monday. From this we assume that trade conditions must be getting bet ter. I hear from.good authority that all the mills in this section will soon begin operating on full time, rt is understood that a number of mills have sold their output ahead for ser r-ral months. All together the situa tion in milling circles is not as bad as it Is ?< reported to be. Generally throughout the country the milts would be running on full time If they could get cotton to spin. Now, as to the condition of the growing crop. We hear it stated from rhe bear side that we will make four teen million bales tbts year, and that cotton will decline to eight cents. This is another great big bluff, and it will frighten,, sonic producers. It is my honest belief, based upon the information at my hand, that the crop of last , year .will not more than be duplicated.'' >\notlie.r..sho^tafce like last year will product)one 1 of the biggest cotton panics that the world has ever known, and the tails of our shirts will have to be made shorter to give every man a shirt. Crop conditions in South Carolina are not what they were two weeks ago. The crop Ts fully 2H per cent. off. This is due to too much rain in June aud early in July, followed by exces sive heat. It is impossible now for the -plant ever to recuperate and make a top crop. In Texas reports say thai the crop has been damaged in sections by too much rain, which in other sections he crop has been cut off considerably by drought and the devastation of the boll weevil. Texas cannot produce anything approaching what is consid ered a full crop Alabama and Mississippi both re port 'too much rain, followed by ex cessively hot weather, producing rust, black rot and shedding. Georgia reports thirty counties af fected with black rot. which is dam aging the crop no little. Orher sec tions report caterpillars, too much rain, followed by excessive heat. Cot ton has deteriorated wonderfully in j the last ten dav s. The other cotton bell States report Conditions just as bad; In view 01 'this Information, it is the heighi oi j folly for the producer and holder ol spots to become frightened and sell The Farmers' Union Is in n positioi to .^et a correct estimate of the crop land it is wisdom in the tanner listen ling to Die Union, whose interest i: identical with Iiis, rather than to list ! en 10 ihe speculator, whose inieres ! it is to uei your cotton just as cheai I as possible The National Convention of tlx ?Farmers' Union convened Septem her 1st lor purpose of fixing tin price of cotton. At "that time tin Union will know the ex?ci conditio! lot tii" crop, and will lb; :f price ii (keeping with those conditions. In view o(.tu?.sc facts.

The price now being paid for col ton is entirely too low in view of the size' qTthe croo;. *bich Is not plan ning .wit as was expected sometime ago. In the last month the crop has fallen off'at least .twenty per cent. The Farmers Union estimates the crop at Tl.noOvOOO bales.. We believe this is a fair estimate. The-Farmers Union andv Secretary Hester, of the New prle?tKy^,. Cotton Exchange, are not v?ry^f?&\spart in their estimates. Secretary Hester's estimate is 11,571, 000 bales, being only seventy-one thousand more than the estimate of the Farmer's Union. The estimate of the Agricultural Department of the ^United States ?government is 13.500,000 bales which is' very near the crop of last year, -which was 13,510,982 bales. Here we have three estimates. One made by the delegates from all over the cotton belt to the convention of the Farmer's Union, which met last week at Fort Worth, Texas, one from Sec retary Hester, Secretary Of the New (Orleans Cotton Exchange, and one from the National Agricultural De partment. The two first estimates al most agree, while the last makes th?* crop 2.000.000 bales larger than the first two. Now which is right? We would Irather trust the figures of tin- Farru ler's Union and Secretary Hester than those of the Agricultural Department. I because it has been caught falsifying (the figures once, and we do not trust. I them now. If the crop is only 11. ? 500.000 bales our farmers arc not re i reiving near what their cotton is i worth and what it will sell for later If it is nor rushed on the market. The ? last crop was over 13,500.000 bales land yet the surplus is not large. So |if the present crop is two million j bales less than the crop of last year, lit ought to at least sell for as good ja price, which was far in excess of I present quotations.
