Will There Be a General European War ?
It l>pffiua to look as if there will be a
general European war next summer, in
which all the went power must become em
broiled. Plucky little (Jiw* hud already
prepared to kiiock the chip from the
Sultan's head, and landed a force on the
Island of Crete, wlien the other powers
stepped in (ommanded her to halt. Of
course Greece had to oliey this mandate,
for it would have lieen folly to resist.

Hut then the Sultan holds the key to the
Kuropeau situation i-i the Straits of i>nrlenelles,
and the first power that steps
in to interfere must have all the others
to coAibat. The result is that the Sultan
tas Iteen i>erinitte<l to continue his brunlitiex,
for each nation is waiting for
lie other to liegin hostilities.
The whole of Kuro|>e is now slumbcrng
over a volcano, liable to hurst forth

unimer will lie allowed to |n?ss without
vituessing a general war across tlie Atinfie.
The different countries have
pent millions in building costly war- '
hips, preparatory to a death struggle for 1
ewer, reali/.ing the fact that the great st
liattles must take place on water in- j
lead of on land. And when a nation J
i prepared for war, it generally finds j
>me excuse for 1>eginniiig hostilities, as 1
le |?eople do not care to indulge in ex- *
wisive luxuries like 1 tattle ships and

HOW 8H0ULD RENTS BE PAID?
You <11(1 me tlie favor to print in your
paper of Deceuilier 4th, an article in
which I esteemed the worth of laud and
labor, basing my conclusion upon the
efficiency of tlie two in agricultural production.
Feeling that it would not be
amiss to show some of tlie evil effects of .
cotton olriigalious in contracts, I will, "
on account of promises to pay in cotton,
assert that much more cotton is pmdiured <
than if the obligations were for money ; I
and, that, because of this increase of pro- I
(1 action, neither tlie land owner nor |
laborer can sell cotton at prices equalling <
the cost of production. . i
I will further assert that, under these *
circumstances, when the produced, tlie c
rented, is brought to a lower degree of <
poverty and wauts tlie land owner may i
prosper and increase his wealth. This 1
hist i?n?jK)sitiou is evident when we admit t
that cotton is now "selling at, or below, s
the c.)st of production. v
\V iiei i tl le average production of cotton d
is estimated to be two hundred (200) A

SILENCE . . .
f:or another year has been entombed in the dark
sepulchre of the past?another quill has been plucked
from the fleet pinions of time?and eternity has
received another dose of physic, by gulping into its
insatiated maw the contaminated Carcass ot iSc;6,
Don't mourn over the grave of the past year, but
joy over the cradle of the infant '97. Yes, the old
year lies now buried in the charnel-yard of by-gone
ages; but the lovely damsel SPRING will soon
strew its grave with the budding blossom of promise,
and the thorns of fut/re sorrow and woe shall be
covered by the sweetest of roses.
For your immediate spring supplies.
I have the Best Plow' Stock for 65 cents; Best
Leather Mule Collar at Good Bridle 60 cents,
Prace Chains, Back Bands and such other things as
/on need for farm use.
A full line of Dry Goods, Notions, Shoes, etc.
share vour Spring business with n and I will en
leavor to give you value received.
Yours truly,
W. T. BEATY.
