The following letter which we clip
from the Augusta Chronicle on the
cotton outlook will ho read with interest
by the farmers and others in
the South:
Norwood, Ga., Feb. 23 There
have been only three men, so historians
tell us, tlmt. have combined the
soldier, statesman and financier in
tine?Julius Caesar, horn 100 years before
Christ; George Washington, born (
in 1732; Napoleon Honaparte, horn in
17(59. And all of these men left an
impression upon their times that can
never he effaced. They did more for
human rights and constitutional
liberty than t he balance of great men,
and yet none was a king, it is said *
of Caesar before he was assassinated !
at the foot of the statue of 1'ompcy,
that while the crown was offered Id in '
<1.^.. 1 ???- !- -? *' * '
uiin v (man iiuu t in- l.l.M IIU1C pUSUCU
gently inside, I remember him only as :
Caesar who paused on the brink of the
Rubicon and uttered these immortal
words: "venl, vldl vici,"' and today,
wliile neltlier of these illustrious men
was ever crowned kin#, there Is a
king today in the south who rules the
world, and lie has said "veni vidi vici,
and my name is King Cotton."
Marius sitting on the ruins of Carthage
is not a more pitiable sight than '
an old Rear sitting mi a bale of cotton '
and a shcrilT selling him out. And 1
now let me tell you. North, South, 1
East and West, England, France 1
Russia, Germany and the balance of '
mankind, you will never get the cot 1
ton wo make again at what you have
been paying. Your Bustons,' your 1
Beers' and your Neils' days are over. '
The south Is coming forth in her grandeur
and her glory with prosperity
thundering from every mountain top, '
from every vale and dell and the glori
ous re- fraln "Cotton is King." is
heard o'er the land.
England may talk of planting cot- ,
ton in Africa, South Africa is the only
part of Africa's vast domain of 1
11,:t00,000 statute square miles that
is worth a continental for cotton. (
Tlin ir.orunf ia n howl * '

ISile is continod to a small territory, '
and the cotton raised in Russia is |
short in fibre and can't be spun on- ,
less mixed with other cotton of long
tihre. The cotton talked of in Cuba .
by Clark Howell is a farce. No conn
try growing a stalk as large as a t ree (
can make cotton, the climatic condl- |
tlons are too tropical. The cotton ;
planted in South America, in Mexico, |
doesn't materialize. \
The United State with over three t
million statute square miles has about i
gone her limits and you will never see ;
over eleven million bales of cotton (
raised again in the south. c
Suppose, then, over eleven million 1
bales were raised (say twelve million), 1
it could not be gathered. The south N
will never again gather a twelve mil- '
lion bale crop, simply because the v
labor is not there to gather it. The 1
old time negro is dying out, and the
young buck coming forward educated, 1
ain't worth a cuss as a farm hand x
totally unavailable as a laborer. The %
statistics show that whenever you (
educate a negro, you spoil a good '
farmhand, lie no longer desires to
pull the bell cord over a mule. He
wants to teach school or preach, and
besides, there are hundreds of avocations
opening up to the daily toiler in \
our country?turpentine fanning, ^
saw mills, factories, railroads. Our \
Southland lias made more progress in |
tlie last ten years, than in two de- 1
cades past, and these Institutions are <
paying good wages and ready cash. With
the boll weevil in Texas, J
thousands of acres of land devoted to '
peach culture in the south, thepopula- (
tion of the country by far outgrowing |
the production of the country, and the i
conquest of the Philippines, and lOng- t
land's inroads into Africa, Is bringing 1
into the folds of civilization a vast
horde of people who went about clothed
with a simple lig leaf until lately,
who now wear clothes. 1 was told .
while in Augusta during my last visit .
that while Augusta was quoted at ,
holding about forty thousand bales of .
cotton, there in reality were only ,
about llfteen thousand bales cotton
for market, the balance is lnman's
and others, not for sale, but to deliver
on contracts.
Now there is one thing clearly (
demonstrated to my mind- that the
south never will make twelve million
bales?if she did the labor is not here
to gather It, and what is not picked by
January 1st, will never be picked. And
again the top crop will never be again
a factor. As my friend Josh Doughty
told me, Dan Bowles had 2<> acres of
the prettiest and forwardest second
crop ever seen. It was the pride of
the mill men around Augusta, and
the cotton ractors gazed Ion# and i
lovingly upon the large u no pen bolls
that were destined to die unborn.
The l>eautlful soft, silky-white locks '
were never to be kissed by a southern
sun, and 1 am told that while the
boys were dwelling in rapture over
Bowles's crop, Dan, who is sharp as s
he Is clever, and being very democra- i
tic In ids ideas, oiTered the crop for <
one bale, and the truth Is, it made !
but one. I
The price of ten cents cotton has 1
made a wonderful difference in the 1
situation. There wen; at least 5,000 '
bales sold in the last few days in
Augusta and with what is now to sell
will put in circulation in Augusta
nearly a quarter of a million dollars
more, as this cotton v/as bought at
about 8 cents. I want to pay a compll- 1
menfc to the factors of Augusta. They
are the cleverest and most reliable J
set of men in the south and have been |
and are the farmers' friends. They ]
rejoice to see the staple rise.

A very deplorable alTalr took place
at Ionian In Spartanburg County the
llrst of last week, in which Mr. Reuben
R. lMtts, the principal ot the Ionian
school, shot and dangerously
wounded one of his larger pupils by
the name of I'M. Foster. It seems
that on Monday Pitts had ordered
Foster to stay in after school was dismissed.
but Faster did not regard the
teacher's words. Tuesday afternoon
I lie request was repeated, and along
with Foster tlnee other of the oldest
pupils were kept In. The teacher
and Foster went into the room adjoining,
where the three remaining pupils
at, and after closing the door Mr.
Pitts stated to Foster that he would
have to whip lilin. Foster said nothing.
Pitts secured a switch and began
to strike the student, who was
larger and heavier in weight than lie.
About this time the door was slum d
open and the three male pupils surrounded
the teacher. Pitts changed
Ids hickory from his right hand to t he
left., reached with his right hand into
11is 11ip pocket and produced a U2
calibre pistol. As ho brough the firearm
in front Foster struck f a ward
with 11is hand, hitting the pistol and
causing the weapon and the arm of
the teacher to fall, and the gun was
discharged. The bullet entered Foster's
stomach. The wounded boy w; s
carried to the lioinc of Mrs. It. F.
Prown, near the school house, where
ill oiieration was nerlnrinml I'ills
oiireitdered to the slierilT and is now
in jail. Foster is laying at the point
?f death and is not expected to recover.
