OBITUARY.
Dr. Lawrence Pinkney Weekley was
born on the. Uth day of November A.
D.' ltMO, and departed this life in the
evening of the 2(Uh May A. D. 1899,
age 38 years, 6 mouths and U days.
He was one among the most honest
of men. He had a limited education
owing to the want of proper school fa
cilities, but amidst all this he was a
man of undaunted courage and perse
verance. and early decided to prepare
for hi* favorite prqfesalon, Dentistry,’
amPgraduated at the Vanderbilt Uni
versity, came home and commenced his
life work In 1885 from Nashville,
Tenn., and continued his profession
and soon gained an enviable reputation
as a Dentist, but ere long he contract
ed that dread disease consumption and
with that ssme couiage undaunted he
fought against its ravages Without
complaint. In the meantime In 1893
be joined the Baptist Church and lived
a consistent Christian life. Sometime
after he married Miss Lizsie Ulmer of
Barnwell County, 1896. After bis
marriage be located at Ulmers, on the
K. C. A P. Railroad, and from thence
he moved to the home of his parents
near Karly Branch, aud still continued
his avocation as best he could, and as
moved on down the ebbing sands of
time, struggling with disease, he ex
hibited the courage and fortitude of a
ubristlau gentleman, and the writer
ofl«n went to hi* home to see and talk
with him; be always was hopeful and
expressed a desire to live, but said not
his will but tbe lord’s be done.
Aud we can *av that everything that
loving and tender band* of a devoted
wife, fond parents, faithful brother
and sisters could do was done; besides
the relatives, friends ana neighbors all
did everything for his benefit, but ala*,
the time for the last struggle came and
he said to his loving and devoted com
panion. farewell; and then said to all
a* they stood around. Tbe only hope I
have Is that aome sw eet day we will all
meet again wIth the loved ones gone
before, where will be glad tiding* of
great joy to (tart no more; and w hen
this wa* said oy him be peacefully fell
aalwep and wa* tenderly laid to rest af
ter tbe funeral service# at the Great
Baltkrbaichie BaptDt Church near
Buford's Bridge.

The subject ot our memoir wa* the
second son of Mr. aud Mrs. B. F. Lvov*
of Hycaniore, and had reached the 20tb
year of his age. “Death loves a shi.
nlng mark,” and today that truth has
been fulfilled. The Angel of'deith ba*
passed by the sick, the old, the care
worn, some who long to “rest the head
upon the lap'of earth,” and entered a
home again that had .been so recently
afflicted. Almost 3 years to tbe day
these bereaved parent* had a similar
affliction in tbe death of their son An
gus, whose los* was equally as bard to
bear as this.
But shall tve murmur? The dutiful
child’s life is safe and grows in anoth
er home, •which hath foundations
whose maker and builder is God.”
When we look in our Father's face we
never say ’it might have been.’ He do-
eth all things well and though the fam
ily circle and his friends shall never see
him again ou earth, they will always
think of him aa one who has emerged
from earth’s darkness to Heaven’s sun
shine. He was a young man of excel
lent trait* of Scharacter, admired and
loved by all who knew him, be was a
merchant and member of the Knights
of Pythias. -He was funeralized by the
Rev. Dr. Galphin, local pastor of the
Baptist church. After the funeral the
remains were turned oyer to his Breth
ren of the K. P., who escorted them to
the grave and gave it that beautiful
aud distinguished burial as D tbair
custom of interring their brethren.
To those who see the vacant chair,
and shall forever misa the cheerful
voice, we ssy. look up, the voice of
Christ far above all earth’s tears, and
losses, say* “lam the resurrection and
the life, he that beUevethun me though
be were dead, yet ahali ho live.” "

THERE 18 NO COMPRESS TRUST.
Standard Bale will meet all require
ments of trade. Loeal mills prefer It.
Will not use compressed cotton of any
kind—How the round bale* and stan
dard stand the test of fire.
- Editors Chret ioie:—A recent Issue
of your paper contained an article from
Mr. 8. It. Cohen, In whlcDhe Incident
ally sympathised with the poor ginner
in the titatment he wa* receiving from
the Compresses, and particularly
compress trust
1 have investigated this trust buai-
neas and -find that it originated
with promoter* In New York City
owning no compress property, who un
dertook to obtain obtain options on all
compress plant*, with the purpose of
Selling them to & London syndicate at
a profit.
With the McFadden* and Rallis, the
largest compress owner* In thl* coun
try, opposed to the scheme; we can
safely say thatvthere will be no com
press trust, that the compresses will
continue to work,- no royalty being de
manded bv the patentees; that the gin-
net* will continue to pack In the wtan-
dard 54x24 box, which the maker* will
sell outright, making no demand for
royalty; and that the producer will
continue to bring to market a bale
which will be bid on by every buyer in
hi* market, and not find himself at. the
mercy ol the few buyers who may have
arranged to handle the round hale. If
public sentiment can he judged by
what we read of the various anti trust
conventions throughout the country,
we must admit that trusts have had
their day, though If the round .bale
companies with their leases and royal
ties, will steer as clear of monopolistic
tendencies as the comnresse* are doing,
they need have no fear of hostile legis
lation.
It cannot be denied that to obtain the
best results, there must oe an improve
ment in the present methods of haling
cotton, and tn this end the compress***
are advising and cooperating with the
glnners in the work of obtaining a
standard bale of 54x24 dimensions, cov
ered with new bagging weighing 2 to
2 1-4 pound*.
Thl* work I* succeeding admirably
aud with, the Information at hand wc
can say that practically all the gin box
es will he changed this season to the
standard.
With all the hale* of uniform size
and the covering strong and new there
will he no more complaint of tho rag
ged condition in which American cot
ton roaches the foreign spinners, and
the additional loading capacity will re
duce the freight rate* at least one-
third It D nm per«s*ary t<> furnish
affidavit* front practical ship people to
convince a sensible man that a square
article will load more economically
than a round one.
-T INSURANCE.
A* tn the claim of cheaper Insurance
rates on mund cotton, 1 beg jo refer to
an article in a recent issue of the At
lanta Cnnstution gl vlng result* cf a
teat of the Low rev bale, the American
round hale and the square hale, evi
dently reported by a friend of the Am
erican hate.
It state* that the lx>wrer ba'e hursts
It* wire*, aud spread* out about ti feet,
allowing the fire to almost entirely
oon«ume it.
The American hale wa* damaged on
ly to the extent of one or two outside
laps.
There Is no report at to damage on
the square hale.
Would they not have paraded the
damage to -quare hale If |t had suffer
ed equally with the round hmle*F '
FROM THE FARMERS POINT OF
VIEW.
Now as to conditions surrounding
the round hale lit this territory where
the Georgia and SojiIi Carolina mills
spin at least one-third of the cotton
grown.
l*4*-a fact generally admitted that
the Augusta market D relatively high
er than anv cotrou ntaiket in the At
lantic Mates, and no one denies Dial
.the local and Carolina mill demand
causes this additional price over other
market* .
It D also an admitted fact that none
of these mills w ill *i*c compressed cot
ton of any kind, and Mist they will not
buy round hale*, because their facili
ties are ifbt adjusted for use of com
pressed cotton. Where dos* the pro
ducer. who has put hi* cotton into the
round hale, ami paid the royalty to the
round hale pres* stand?
lie ha* (laid out his money to get his,
cotton in a shape which deprives him
of the full Price paid by the mill*, he
lias lost competition of the mill buyer,
and is at the mercy of such exporter*
as may he in position to handle round
cotton.
Thq round bale may do for Texas
where the demand from local mills is
inconsiderable, hut in this ‘territory
where the tnillr practically make the
market, it is hardly probable that h
reasoning man will pay a dollar to get
his hales round, when the buyers pay
ing the highest prices will only buy it
square. . '•
FROM THE GIXXER’S 8TAND-
, ' ' * POINT.
It has been proven hy actual experi
ence that a standard square hale of 51
inches long hy 24 Inches wide can, with
careful tieing at the compresses, be
he'd tn a dei sity of 40 pounds to the cu
bic foot, as great a degree of density a*
could lie asked and siifflcieut to meet
ail competition in loading.
It stands to reason that the man who
gins cotton as a business will not be
quick to give up Ids old press which lie
owns in lull at a cost of not over $125
to replace it with a patented machine
which he must lease and cannot buy,
and on every bale of 500 pounds, which
It turns out be must pay $1 royalty be-’
fore he gets a cent.
