If a hundred thousand dollar ton mill afford down in to get cheap cotton, a one horse cotton farmer can afford, lo shut down in order lo prevent sell- his at n sacrifice. The fight for low rot ton by l lie spinners is . They will the fight if cotton farmers rush their cotton to market. If the farmers hold most of their cotton and keep down receipts, they will win their fight for h cot Ion. The price of cotton is largely based on with small receipts the price will go up. If they let the cotton buying world see big receipts, the price will go down. If farmer sells his cotton for less than it is worth, his loss is complete and he is a loser. If the cotton mill has to pay what cotton is worth, he may be troubled for a few weeks, but he and his associates can put up the price of the product the mill and suffer no permanent loss. It is to the interest of the south to have this small crop of cotton its lull value to the men whose toil has made it. Comfort at home and the education of the children arc absolutely upon this.

False Sentiment OS 1.-I. U. Oct. Mr. to Wash- this week is to lie followed by of the nil- and bin party ate, and every scheme that w ill et out votes is likely to be in full swing these lust weeks of the cam- Voters in Mates which the republican lingers consider doubtful who are employed the government department in Wash- have all given to very plainly that they must go home and vote or take the consequences. What the republican consider close or doubtful may be judged from the fact that this notice has been given voters from New York, New Connecticut, West Virgin- la, Maryland, Kentucky, Ohio, and Michigan. That they have no expectation of carrying Kansas or Nebraska or any of states of the far West, may be judged their having left the voters from those states free to use their own about going home to vote. Mr. is counted upon by the party bosses to do some thing to try to raise a rah and election. Just what this will be has not leaked out, although the has. It will be well for the democrats to be on the lookout for any sort of move on the part of the administration that may be lated to catch and enthuse those who do not look below the surface of things and to be prepared to counteract the effect of any such move. As a statesman, history may not give Mr. very high rank, but a slick up to all the tricks of the trade and having the ability some of his own, Mr. top liner, and will close watch- Republicans are privately ad- that Bryan and Stevenson will carry Illinois, although they are publicly claiming that they will get a majority in the rest of state to wipe out the Bryan major- they concede Chicago will give.

The Florida Press Association will spend Friday in Raleigh. A saying among certain lawyers Is. that it is better that ninety and nine guilty persons go free pun- than one innocent man should be and they seem to think that is Scripture. On this assumption, they will use every method fair or foul, to clear the guilty on the plea it is merciful to do this. Now what is the scriptural teaching is to the protect the innocent. How far the true object of In vest putting men charged with crime on trial is it when the plea not punish the No right- minded man wants the innocent punished. But fellows who raise this bat ninety and nine guilty ones should go free, her than punish one Innocent after clearing the guilty. They do wish to find out who is guilty and punish them, but to guilty Every man crime should have a lawful trial not to serene the guilty, but to out whether such are guilty or if on trial it is proven they arc guilty every man should be in favor of punishing according to law. It is as much the duty of the people and their interest for the guilty to be punished as it is for the innocent to be protected. P. D. Wilson Times. John Oct.
