To the Cotton Farmers and

of the value or the cotton
seed crop this coming season.
As is well known, the corn crop

in fact, it is short in most sections
of the States. We all
know that a short crop means
higher priced corn, which turn
means higher priced hogs, cattle,
, and for their products. As
these products price,
such as compound lard
etc.,
take their places. These
substitutes contain cotton seed oil,
hence the demand for that will
probably be greater than ever be

for this purpose, it is but natural
that they will largely substitute
cotton seed meal for corn

of these demands cotton seed meal
oil will both bring higher
prices than heretofore. This being
true cotton seed also should

selling for.
Wit bin the past few months a
syndicate has been taking options

From recent occurrences it is
probable oil com

an understanding as prices

situation is such that, in our
ion, the farmers should take some
action to protect themselves and
have some voice in naming the
own products will sell

operation in selling, which can be
accomplished. The cotton seed

THE END.
PRESIDENT DEAD.
Passed Away at This Morning.
From the nature of the news
from Buffalo Friday and at night,
every one expected to hear the
worst from President

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Prom On
Washington, l. u. Sept.
The shooting of President
Buffalo has been the all-
public topic at the Nation-
Capital since Friday last. Hap-
at a time political calm
and so clearly traceable to the an-
infatuation of a shiftless,
unknown creature, it allowed no
space for feeling. In-
stead the great underlying loyalty
and honesty of American heart
came uppermost at once and from
every quarter every shade of
true have come like
measures of sorrow, affection and
indignation as the incidents
dastardly deed them.
This assault the Chief Mag-
has brought forth
among people and publicists
stern active legislation must
be enacted to suppress and prevent
anarchism of the destructive school
in the States. It is all well
enough that men oppressed wrong-
fully in other lands should make
America their asylum, but they
must not also make a slaughter
house. We enthrone in our White
House no need the
and bloody medicine of
ringer, dagger, or dynamite. Our
atmosphere that of liberty and
law must not be made poisonous by
breaths of those whose tongues
and hands are against God, and
government, and public good.
The new Congress convening In
December promises to be one of
liveliest of recent times. The re-
publican scant majority of thirty-
nine will have to be kept well
within the party corral, if the
party program is to be carried for-
ward with celerity and certainty.
Democrats will bare to keep
close watch on the majority and get

To win that Is now chief aim
of the Democratic leaden. With
that gained thy can make
rough so to speak for
the Republicans just ahead of the
national campaign of 1904.

the Republican leaders are
only dragging brush over the road
to raise a dust. Really there is no
hope in Hodge. He has neither
the wit of Cameron, nor tireless

Virginia will be slow to take him
seriously. His race is stated from
the start to be a rag-time out.

A law ought to be passed fixing

of value from our merchants or

as a thief the secures

dead beat ought to be treated the
same way for he in fact belongs to
the same class. By the unwritten
law of trade and commerce he

As I see no else seems to
in a notion to write our column,
I will write you a few words com-
on the same. So far I
have been the only one to write
in a few lines under our
Department and I want to
ask if some of thereat of the teach-
will not help us out.
The column in your
paper will be an aid to education
in our county if the teachers will
only inn lest enough interest to
keep the principle going.
To write a few lines for
in our column does not require
a great effort, and if some of the
teachers will take one sixteenth of
the interest it that was taken in
and at the in
the educational column
will become very interesting.
I know young ladies
haven't a great preference for
writing letters for public perusal,
but it is a well fact that
young men have done such things,
and it looks to me like some of our
male might
modify their subjects give us a
piece for Educational Depart-
I do not mean by the above to
exclude ladies by any means.
I know the ladies are just as com-
to give us interesting
as any the male teach-
and I think if the will
only give us a start ladies will
follow, for it is already a
tact that a is going to have
the last word anyhow. Some may
say they not able or
write a piece, but there was not a
issued to one at all
who is not fully competent to give
us something interesting on the
subject of education.
Most of the teachers in this
county arc ladies so I must
say to them that we cannot get
along without them. Let's see
who is the first to write us a piece.
Don't be timid or bashful, but
just take you pen blaze away.
I hope none of the male teachers
are too timid . to write
us a but I guess all
right. Such weeds don't grow in
a man's crop.
We would like very much to
hear from Prof, and
