SULLY EX COTTON KING
VISITS COLUMBIA, i
f SATS CATION' CHOP IS SHORTMOKE
SO THIN FOR OVER 1
TWENTY YEARS.
]
' l iii' condition of the cotton crop (
over the entire South is wrv bad," (
? . said Mr Paniel ' Sully, the cotton
f < manupilator, Friday. "I think it :
is worse than it ha< been in the p;ist |
23 years and might further state in j
the past it' vears," he continued. (
i*yet with two or three years of bad ,
cotton crops ana nign p'lces, nr.
farmers will be in the best condition
that they have ever been." ,
Mr Sully came to Columbia to j
confer with Commissioner Watson
A concerning the intelligent market- ;,
ing of the cotton crop. Data andj j
statistics were secured from the com- ^
missioner in reference to European
grading and questions involved in j
exportation and baling were brought ^
up, Mr Sully having plans for
branching out along these lines. ^
A further conference will be held {
on September 28 in Washington at j
which John Hays Hammond and!1
others will be present. ]
When seen Mr Sully talked very 1
freely, discussing the general con-;(
ditions of the cotton in the South, !,

greatest product.
BB When asked what the price of
cotton would be he said, "Oh, that
depends on certain conditions y1,
B but it will be very high, for the '<
B consumers will want about 13,000,
< 000 bales of cotton, and the yield
Jr will be only about 11,000,000 bales, j,
^ produced on about 32,000,000 acres
of land."
He stated that he had a number!
of agents at work in the West and i
that the crop was very poor therej
on account of the excessive heat and i
? lack of rains. j i
"1 notice in traveling through j <
Georgia and South Carolina," said i
**? Qniiv "that the farmers are!
U?? W ? .J ?
planting more corn than ever and 11
out of Augusta 1 saw some corn j i
that would rival a picture I saw in 11
ooe of ihe magazines theother day |
of some two story corn from Kansas, ]
and in my opinion the corn crop '
will bring good prices this year. <
"With a short cotton crop the 1
farmers will be in better condition 1
than at the present," said Mr Sully. !
"Prices are bound to go up and i
should the farmers of the South get
15 and 16 cents for their cotton i
for the next two or three years, they
would be kiDgs among us." M
A very high compliment was paid
to Commissioner Watson. A ques- I
tion concerning the cotton crop in i
South Carolina was asked the com- 1
missioner by one of the reporters, 1
and Mr Sully, placing his hand on <
the conimisioner's arm, said, "This ]
man's work is being recognized all i
over the world." i
Mr L A Green of Greenville, the 1
inventor of the new cotton grader,
was a visitor with Mr Sully. Mr
Green gave a very interesting ac.
.
?oudi oi wnai pruuiplcu uim lv invent
the grader. He stated that
about 15 years ago he was engaged
in the cotton buying business at
Greer, one of the best known cotton
markets in the Piedmont section of
the State, and that the house for
which he worked frequently called
him down on account of his grading.
He stated that these occurrences pot
him to thinking and he decided that
there was a better way of grading
cotton, so set to work to invent an
instrument for the purpose.

As Seeo io Clarendon
The State board of canvassers
sustained the action of the Clarendon
board and reversed the action
of the Williamsburg board, which
means that the advocates of Rutledge
lose. Now it is proposed by
the Rutledge people to pursue the
matter further by taking their contention
to the supreme court.
We are not at all surprised at the
persistency of our Rntledge friends.
They are a liberal set and are fond
of their legal advisers, who we
have no doubt, will do their level
be6t to earn their fees, and as long
as the fee holds out to come, why
3hould they give up a good thing.
When you get a good thing shove it
along, is the motto of the day, and
lawyers are prone to know a good
thing when they see it.
In the contest before the State
board, J II Leeesne, Esq., represented
the Clareudon board; in fact,
before both boards, and there not
being any provision made for such
emergencies, there will have to be a
provision made at the next session
of the Legislature. Mr Lesesne did
some very effective work to save
Clarendon from becoming dismembered,
and his arguments before
the State and county boards demonstrated
his legal ability and his
knowledge of the intricate principles
of law which were presented
to the boards.?Manning lime*.

ATTRACTIVE FOLDER ISSUED.
Passenger Department of A C L Adver
tising Excursion Rates to the South.
The Passenger T rathe department
of the A thin tie Coast Line has just
issued an attractive d "J-page folder
advertising especially the very low
home-seekers" excursion rates from
Northern cities to points in the
South. It is printed in two colors
and begins with a general review of
the agricultural, horticultural,
trucking, manufacturing and industrial
features of the entire system
and has a short write-up of each
State through which the Atlantic
Coast Liue passes, namely: Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina,
(ieorgia, Alabama and Florida, the
section being very properly called
' The Nation's Garden Spot." Special
mention is made of new colonies,
which have recently been and are
being formed on the Atlantic Coast
Line in the several States, each
unde' a separate caption; due credit
being given those who are making
an effort to attract settlers and in
this and other ways, iryiug to build
up their respective localities.
The folder has a number of at
tractive halt-tone cuts ot agricultural
and horticultural scenes and several
maps showing the location of the
various colonies referred to in the
folder. These various features are
followed by a list of representatives
of the Coast Line throughout the
United States, and a brief outline of
the attractive schedules from the
West and from the East via that
line. Then follows a table of the
cheap rates, followed by the information
that the round trip tickets
will be sold on September 7th and
21st, October 5th aud 19th, November
2nd and 16th and December
7th and 21st, carrying exceedingly
liberal stop-over privileges with final
return limit to reach the original
starting point within twenty-five
days from date of sale.
On the back of this folder is a
map of the United States east of and
including St Louis and .New Urleane,
which is likewise printed in two
colors.
The Atlantic Coast Une deserves
much credit for this innovation and
for its plicv of activity towards promoting
and upbuilding the rich
country through 'hich it passe?,
and the results otfu ned from the
very extensive distribution which
is being given this folder in the
North will be such, in attracting desirable
settlers to the South, that
the folder will be issued regularly
and in the future probably enlarged
as new efforts and enterprises, when
known to the company, are created.
A very unique feature of this
folder is that the outside page contains
lines for addressing and
stamping the folder which is soarranged
that it may be mailed with,
out being enclosed in an envelope.
Copies of the folder, may be obtained
from Mr T C White, General
Passenger Agent at Wilming
ton, .N U, who will cheerfully mail
copies to addresses of any prospecti ve
settlers that may be sent him.
A Narrow Escape.
Edgar N Bayliss, a merchant of
Robinsonville, Del, wrote: "About
two years ago I was thin and sick,
and coughed all the time and if 1
did not have consumption,it was near
to it. I commenced using Foley's
Honey and Tar, and it stopped my
cough, and I am now entirely well,
and have gained twenty-eight pounds,
all due to the good results from taking
Foley's Honey and Tar."
