Sept. 15. 1898. the duty of the citizen In our complex civilization it is next to impossible lor one to live enlirelv to himself, even if tIint be ever so ardently de-ired. To make the experiment i> to achieve failure and reap a sad experience. Interrelation and interdependence run through all the affairs of human life. This is in accord with the designs of nature. The Crea tor abhors selfishness, and never intended tha: the people oi !hi> earth should be selli>h in their thoughts, purposes and manner ot living. There is absolutely no selfishness in nature, but every where is seen the idea of mutual j dependence and a general sympathy and oneness. So it is in human life. There! is that same mutual dependence' and there must be that general sympathy and oneness, if the l>e.st is gotten out of life in the way of happiness and success. Let one make the experiment of with drawing himself entirely from his fellow men, and live absolutely ' i i independent of them, without helping or being helped by those . about him, and he will soon find i himself a mental, moral and fi' * nancial wreck, and die a miserable; failure and a pauper. What relation or occupation in life is to tally independent, and can brin?rj happiness or success by itself. The farmer must have a market j for his products; the merchant buyers for his wares* the lawyer his clients; the physician his pa tients, and the preacher his hear ers. In our body politic what af-.j lects one part alFects th3 whole citizenship. Every citizen of a community or nation, whether lie r v believe55 it or not, is interested in Ihe government, and in the moral, intellectual indcstrial and financial development arid prosperity of the community or nation in * which he lives and to which he i owes the high dpties of citizen ship, and he feels in all the rela lions of his own life a growth or decline in anvof ihese respects.

What buiIds up a town, builds up every individual citizen, and what advances tlie prosperity of a coun try community increases the pros ! perity of every man in it. This is a fact that can not be success lully denied, can not be evaded, and to close our eves to it is to reap the rewards of our folly. The duty, therefore of every citizen is to do all in his power to build un his community. lie *' ought to see to it that, as far as hi V'lii' .hi 1 iuil'iojic.' t ii" vc! v ln*>l turn aro put in nnd - * - i t i i t i : : 11 ;i i i in* ninrou ami sciiooi i.iivi 1 I !o;re> ol liis lown are o! the Inirh I est order.

The object of this convention, [' as we understand it, is to endeavor j' to make arrangements wliicti will !' enable the farmers to hold their! cotton several months, if neces i i \ -arv. ia order that the market will i I not be glutted at the opening ol | the season,and the price consequently lowered. To do this, it is1 proposed to get enough money advanced on ilie crop io pay on ilie most pressing obligations 01 ! 1 the farmer, ami let him hoM his j i ( cotton until tiie price is advanced., ^ We do not know how this scheme will work, but it is meel-j ing with much favor in so:n> ot the other counties, and it is:?t least j i woith a trial. It is a most di>- j couracing outlook to the farmer to' have to di.pose ol his product at1, lo<< 11) ! 11 I liri I'/'t il l) (il 111 :i I: il?<> it, when he lias st liven eariv and late, Irom seed-lime tiii harvest,) and no means should be lett untried to bring about a better state j | ' of things. There is no doubt that t lie low j; price of cotton is due to over pro ; 1 duct ion. Other courses have been ,( i suggested, but the fact remains, : i that whenever the crop Inlis short j ( its market value is increased. A ' , six million bale crop would doubt- i less sell for asmuch as one of t wel vt t i. millions. The only logical way ! J then to bring about an increase in its value is to diminish the crop. It may take years to convince all j the fanners of this truth, b::t they ' will eventually see the force of it. i ' The mo-t hopeful sign of better j prices this season is the reduction ^ <A eleven points in the September estimate of the cotton crop com-; i pared with that of August, and what with excessive rains, boll , ? onus uiiu ouier?uesu ucii\ e agen- ^ cits tlie Jailing oil' may be ^tili 'J greater. 2 One thing we would suggest for ! the consideration ol' the conven- 2 1 i tion next Saturday is the adopting J of a uniform price J'or cotton- z picking, and a signed agreement *? by representatives from every 4 community that it be adhered to. \ This will effect a clear understand t j ins as 1? the j.rice to he paid, and j !\ ( !iit' i i ; !
