HIGH-PRICED COTTON WHICH IS
NOT HIGH AT ALL.
One insutticiently considered result
of the good prices for cotton obtained
during recent years is a inucli higher
capitalization of land and consequent
pressure for earning inlcresl on greater
investment values. In this connection
some interesting faols are point("I
out by ti. Wall Street dournal.
During iaust I crop yeecs l'-e average
export price of cotton was HUi I
cents. The average export price fori
the four years immediately preceding
w as S.i, i i 111>. I hiriic.: the fouryear
period jtisi closed." says our
financial contemporarx in commenting
upon these tigurcs, "there has
heen a very general haying of cotton ,
lands with the surplus derived from
higher cotton profits/.. This has raised
the value of cotton lainl.> to a figure
far above ilic value of < arlicr
years of the present decadc. Much of
the col to.i now selling for I" nis
has heeii grown on these higher-priced
lands. As long as coi'ton prices
remain on the 10cent level, things
may go on smoothly enoagh under
thi* high eapilali/.ation id' land. Hut
it' cotton should decline to S or even
! cents a pound, (lie harden of earning
i.itesest would he considerably
enhanced." This statement, presents
an excellent reason wh\ cotton prices !
which would <1111 e hav e been consider-I
ed rather hi\:h ?an no |i>ni:er hi term !
ed in 11 < -1 - a i.ivc 1? \\. ( ottou lands, j
moreover, have risen no| only bccanse
coitoii itself was higher but to
keep pace with a rising general price
level. Included ill this higher level
are labor, farm supplies, and nearly
everything else for which the grower
must pay. The growing ol cotton
costs more in every way than heretofore,
ami the southern grower does
well when he seeks to govern his sell
ing accordingly.- - Charlotte Observer, i
It is a fact that we sometimes overlook
when talking about high priced
cotton that it is not so high after
all for the price of everything else
has gone up even in greater proportion
than cotton. Twelve and fifteen
cents, when the price of other things
is considered is no more than seven
and eight cents when the price of
clothing ami provisions is considered.
.The farmer needs now more than
ever to grow on the farm the things
needed for the farm. 11 he d< c> >'
when he comes to draw his balance i
at the end of the year he will find j
himself in worse condition than when
cotton was much lower than it is
now.
Mr. Martin takes a lick at Senator
Latimer and (low Ansel with the
same blow, lie will put some life in
the senatorial campaign.
Our primary for mayor and aldermen
of this town is now about ten
days off. It is very important that
we should put full grown men in office.
men who are in touch with the
spirit of the age ami the progress of
the times if we expect to remain ill
the proi ession.
Head the little article i.i another
column under the query, "Shall these
orphans have a thanksgiving ?" and
if you are a father or a mother or
ever if you have a heart that beats
like a human heart should beat and
you will be touched. If yon are and
you have prospered or even if your
life ami health have been spared to
your family yo uwill touch your
pocket and send something to Dr.
-Jacobs at Clinton before \oii lay the
paper down.
l\Yad the story of the little girl
who is labeled and has a ticket for
Clinton and the gladness and sunshine
and hope which come to her soul from
tdie home like surroundings into which
she is soon made to feel that she is one
of the family and if you have a heart
it must be touched.
Dr. .Jacobs has done and is doing
a great work at Clinton. What greater
work could engage the attention
of any one than to care for the
fatherless and load theiu and show
tiiein (he right path.
Street and sidewalk improvement
should be the slogan of the administration
of city ol fairs by the administration
which is soon to bo elected.
We have grown jusi as big as we can
until we begin to make some improvements
along these lines. We waul
those improvements to be of a permanent
character. We need lo get
rid of the nnuldv streets and sidewalks.

TIIE GAME LAW.
The Herald and News a few days
ago published I he game law. It will
lie recalled Inal in Ibis county it is
11111 \\ I'i I lo kill prat ridge or quail
111111 >! i ? l.'iiu of November. In I In*
counties surrounding us. namely, Saluda,
I ,e.\iiigton, and Kaii'lieM, (lie
open season begins on the lirsl of November.
T'he hunters have, however,
as a rule paid very little attention to
(he law; and we are informed that
a ureal many people have been shooting
quail since (he lirsl of November.
A gentleman of this county, who
does a good deal id liuillillg during
I lie seas.1.1, suggested I lie oilier day
111 a I there was a greater enemy lo
(lie '. ame ..I' this eoiniirv lhan llie
liun I? i* a ml I lie -hotguii. and llial cue
111 \ w a> the do'.:, lie ii<sis|> thai all

and hogs, d it ring (he closed season",
for I lie tea sou Dial tliev deslroy llie
young birds.
We do lift i. i<>\\ just Ih \\ he could
accomplish his purpose, unless it was
made law ful lo kill every dog on
sight that was seen roaming al large.
And if thai were done, we would soon
exterminate I he race of dogs in Ihis
country. There can be liltle doubt
however, that he is correct, i.i that
the dogs do deslroy more birds than
are killed by the hunter with his shotgun.
He says that it is impossible to
raise successfully pea fowls or guineas;
because about Ihe time that llie
piod housewife nets Ihe ties! made, a
stray dog comes along and destroys
all of the eggs. There can be lillle
ilouhi that we have loo many dogs
in litis country, and if we could d.1vi>e
some plan lo uel rid ol some ol
tlieni, til least, we would be heller

STAND TOGETHER.
If clearing house certificates would
relieve any community then that community
ought to issue cleanup; house
cerlilicates. Kanniers and mercbiinls

little helps. The idea is to keep
up the price of cotton, keep wanes
fair ami keep g'oods moving in the
stores. We can do all these for ourselves.
We used lo think that somebody
from afar had to come with the
money lo build a cot-ton mill lor us.
j Now we know we can build one ourselves
when we try. So we can help
ourselves in money mailers il we try.
'flie banks must help the fanner, merchant
ami mechanic and these in
1 urn must deposit llieir money in the
banks. It's the old story of lire
stomach and the members. If each
helps the other all round we will all
conic out all right. Greenville News.
flie above I roin Ihe Givcnville
News is very true and alonvr Ihe same
line that we tried to impress upon our
people iu Tuesday's paper. Everybody
who has money und who does
not need il for immediate use should
deposit it in banks. If all the money
j that is withdrawn from circulation,
even in small quauilies in this community,
w;is taken I rotn the pockets
of those Who have it. ami placed iu
banks, il would add very materially
to the amount of currency and would
; 111u- be put in circulation and at the
same lime be "iierleclly secure and
safe, and could'-be obtained lor use
when needed. There can be no doubt
that anything that the tnercha.il or
I llie hanker, or any other business
man. can do to aid the fanner in sej
curing a heller price lor his cotton,
i will help everybody not oiil_\ i.i the
-so i i J11 but . Ii roughoii I the country.
We cannot help believing thai- the
present panicky condition of the
money market bus been brought about
largely by the speculators i.i New
York, who are Irving to hear down
the col Ion market. This is a time
when everybody should work together
land give his influence and his assistanec
in helping lo relieve the situa;
lion.
