Wednesday, Sept. 27, 1899.. IN RE THE COTTON MARKET. "Last year col ton was higher in this market than in any of tint naHtltliAfin ir t/\tir??Q uvj^II vv/i III^ t-un net nun i ur it? ceipts were heavier here than ever before. We want to see it that way again. Of course, we do not ask our huvers to pay more for the staple than it is worth but we would like to see cotton coming here from around Monroe and Waxhaw as it did last year. Whoop up the market gentlemen, and start the cotton to rolling this way. The trade is going where the cotton goes un less extra inducements are held out bv merchants here, and if many of the merchants here havej bargains to offer, the people have looked over the county papers in! vain to find them. If the cotton] from this county and west dies terfield continues to roll into Monroe and Waxhaw, as we are informed it has lor the past week, we expect to have our columns crowded with advert isnmnts of the enterprising merchants of those towns."?Saturday's Led \Ve are sorry to see our es i teemed contemporary advertising! Waxhawand Monroe merchants to the detriment of those engaged in the same business in Lancaster.) and possibly to the hurt of many of those who might be induced by that advertising to haul their cot j ton to those markets. It should be borne in mind by those who have cotton to sell that Monroe (and perhaps Waxhaw too) buy cotton strictly on grades, and that when they tindj a real line bale they give all that j bale is worth, perhaps a little more, because th tf figure goes out as the price the staple is bring- j ing upon that market. We do not seek to induce the farmers to bring their cotton to I.aneuster unices ttn>v- r>o?, ?? I much as thev ran in other mark i ets, hut we would direct their attention to 1110 facts mentioned, a hove. As we have said before, we do ' not see how Lancaster can afford not to pay as much for cotton as' other neighboring markets are paving. Self interest would! prompt them to that if tliev see the cotton going to other places. Senator Hough left Monday fori Columbia where he will join the Governor and his staff, of which; he is one, on their trip to New York to witness the Dewey cere-j monies.

Thanev and Wash Clinton will plead guil j ty to the offense against Messrs. Frank Shaver and Robert Matins. It they do not, there can be little doubt that the jury will convict them in short order.

Yatman finished her 700 I mile bicj cle run at 4 n'cleck this . morning at Valley Stream, Long Island. The distance was covered J ; in eighty one hours and five minutes, durum which she slept one hour and forty-five minutes. 1 At. the conclusion of the task Miss Yatman was in good physi- n ** That Million Dollar Mill. The Manufacturers Record hai advices from Col. Leroy Springe confirming the news that the Lancaster cotton mill will increase its capital from $150,000 to $1,000,000 and add 50,000 to 50, 000 spindles to the 10,000 it al ready has; also that orders foi most of the machinerv has been placed. Lancaster is in great luck?in its man and its mtll.? Columbia State. Col. Springs says he has made the financial arrangements to build a big mill, but that the arrangements are conditioned upon the raising of a certain amount of money here. There should be lit tie trouble to raise $75,000 or $100,000 to get. northern people to invest nine or ten times that amount in our midst. If Lancaster does not let them invest in her midst some other community will. As a market, for cotton seed, Lancaster is up with any town we know of except Anderson, where the two local oil mills are having a war over the seed and are paving away above the market value. It is much like the cotton market was here a year ago. These little abnormal fights help out those who have the stuff that the war is over to sell. lint such things can last hut a short while. Peo pie cannot and will not long pay m?>re lor a 'ommodity Ulan they can realize for it when Ihey sell it. Ambition to down or outdo local competitors ma\ cause peo pie to pay more for products than they can even hope to realize. But they will soon get enough ol that kind of business, and the market price will then be the governing factor in buying. The market price for cotton seed all over the State is just about the same, 15 cents a bushel. The oil mills seem to realize that the cot ton crop is short. If those who manufacture the cotton could bo brought to realize the same and i i i ; J / * - ? ? - would dim ior ine siapie in;e toe seed men hid for (lie seed, the price would he much hotter. Hut. unfortunately, the cotton market is largely made hy Liverpool, while the market lor seed is made entirely hy the South. - The time is rapidlv coming when the Smith will have much more influence in fixing the cot ton market th hi it has ever had heretofore. It's influence is felt now since there are so many Southern mills to he supplied And as the mill- multiply, that influence upon the cotton market will become more and more decided.
