While lost of the people have been greatr blessed, some few seemel unmoved. 7e can only say for them that they ave let a precious opportunity go y.

MONEY SHOULD COME TO SOUTHERN FARMER Senator Smith's Bill to Have Cotton Tax in Treasury Loaned is Good Measure. To the Editor of The State: The State came as a benidiction yesterday, containing as it did, Sen ator Smith's bill to have the cotton tax money in the United States treasury loaned to the banks of the cotton States to help the farmers finance their cotton in marketing it. The money by right ought to be returned to us, but that being denied, no uue, iv bceius ui me, wouiu painsay our right to have the use of it as a loan and so we have good hope that the inspiration which prompted Senator Smith to formulate his bill will result in putting that money where it will benefit every man woman and child in South Carolina immensely. Only the farmers who make cotton on borrowed money will know how to thank Senator Smith if he puts the bill over. Only the poor man toiling under our summer sun to make cotton for the New York cotton exphflnoro tn era mKlo in and November can appreciate the help this fund will be to him as enabling our banks to lend him the necessary money on his cotton to warehouse it a few months and sell it later to better advantage. Our country banks do the best that they can for us but they, too, like the farmers are "up against it." They have to borrow money in the spring from iNew xoric oanKs to iena to tne farmers, that money to be repaid in October, and when October comes and the speculators of the New York cotton exchange begin to sell cotton at a cent a pound under the price that the same grade will sell at in Barnwell, and we try to borrow money from our banks to hold our cotton off the njarket for awhile, we find that HE GREA )N WHY AT THE Dry Goi l CONTI change to be ma 'oster's death.

Thus they victimize both the grower and the spinner of cotton. They toil not neither do they spin, but like ticks upon a dog they suck the life blood from both farmers and sDin ners. You will find that every senator and congressman under the domination of the New York cotton exchange is going to fight Smith's bill to a finish, but I hope that every senator and congressman not under that unholy alliance will give Senator Smith the support that he needs to pass his measure.
