Some leave here in disgust.
And some we'll lose, and some we'll

From echoes round the throne
I've sung them when, on lofty track,
My heart soared through the sky,
And every word and tone brought
A telegraph reply;
I've hummed them when my soul with
grief
Feared all its prayers were vain.
Till they have braced up my belief,
And soothed my doubting pain;

The trees up to rejoice;
I've joined meetings where God

Ten thousand in one voice

And my sad heart, by their sweet aid.
Has walked the valley through.
Ah, my wife when heaven's great

Awakes my senses dim,
I humbly hope they'll give me first

I trust, when our last moving day

Danville Tobacco Journal.
Cooper's warehouse at
N C, is an institution which belongs
to the history of the State. No ware-
house, perhaps, in South has ever
acquired such popularity among such
a large class of and this year
we believe its patronage will be
larger than ever before.
Mr. Cooper has inaugurated a
system in the management of his
mammoth, warehouse by which
everything goes on as smoothly as
clock work. In basement from
to bands are employed
assorting tobacco as it comes in
from barns. A great
many planters don't have room or
time to assort their crops during the
curing season, so they haul or ship
their crops right to Cooper's ware-
house. Here it is carefully assorted
and repacked or placed on the ware
house floor for sale. In the business
department of this big warehouse can
be seen tobacco from almost every
county in the Eastern half of the
State.
Mr. D. Y. Cooper wields a
powerful influence over the tobacco
rowers of Eastern Carolina, and he
it by the power of high pi ices.
Being a large planter himself be
knows what tobacco costs and what
it is worth. So when the
crop is placed on sale Mr. Cooper is
sure to see it bring every cent of its
value or knows the reason why.
Hit warehouse has likewise the
of selling the choicest tobacco
frown in Eastern Carolina, and this
as its influence on tho buyer, and
always helps to raise prices.
Many of the tobacco growers in
new tobacco sections of Eastern
are selling their crops at
Cooper's warehouse this year, and as
a role are highly with prices.
This big warehouse will handle
this year than ever
before and more tobacco, perhaps,
than any warehouse in Virginia or
North Carolina. This is item
which Mr. Cooper can well be proud,
which goes to the credit of
Henderson a tobacco market.

Railroad corporations, as well as
individuals, are sometimes penny
wise and pound foolish. The people
of Kinston wanted an excursion, at
a low file from that town to Green-
ville on Sunday so they might come
over to the dedication. The train
was run. but the company would
give no lower rate than it had
the week, for the round trip.
The result of this was that only forty
people came on the excursion, but
these told us there were between on
and two hundred people who wore
ready and would have come had the

the low fare would have made thorn

fare. The railroad managers,

Association Notes
Greenville greatly enjoyed the
meeting of the Association.
Many of the delegates and visitors
to the Association had never seen
Greenville before. It goes without
saying that they were charmed with
our beautiful town.
The number of visitors in Green-
ville during the Association was
quite large. We would like to make
personal mention of them all but
space forbids.
Our distinguished townsman, Gov.
Jarvis, while a member of another
denomination was frequently in at-
the sessions of the
Association, and took much interest
in its deliberations. In responding
to an invitation from the body to
occupy a seat among them, be

About Freights.
The Reflector believes there is no
one thing that benefit a more
than a good railroad when it is right-
conducted, and operates with an
eye to the interest of the people. On
the other hand there is nothing hat
goes further to hold a town down
and prevent its development than for
a railroad to have a monopoly of
transportation and be operated with
an eye singe to its own interest and
the of every dollar
possible out of the O
neighbor town, Tarboro, is now com-
plaining loudly about exorbitant
freight charges, having to pay
per bale on cotton shipped from there
to Norfolk, with incoming freight
proportionally high. That, town
came to such a state of affairs in this
It had two competing trans-
lines and the freight on
cotton went down to cents per
bale. Instead of keeping rates at
this figure the shippers adopted the
suicidal policy of giving all their
patronage to one line and other
had to with drawn, and no sooner
did the one into full con
of the situation than freight
rates j just percent.
We wish to make some
sons from this and drop a word of
warning to the shippers of Green-
ville. This town is blessed with
reasonable freight rates, brought,
about of course by the competing
transportation lines that run to this
place. It has not always thus,
as some who are in here
will what freights
when there was but one
company that run a steamer here.
Not a great many years ago another
company put boats upon the river
and at once freight charges began
to go down and a third line coming
later have brought them to such
a figure that no one could complain.
The railroad is here also, an while
that has increased the facilities of
the town, it is held check by the
steamer so far as freight, charges are
concerned. But recent observations
and inquiry lead us to believe that
the shippers here arc not as much in-
in keeping freights low as
they should be. For instance, a few
Saturdays ago the train took from
Greenville eight ca r loads cotton,
while the earns day t he steamer
took five bales and the steamer
only one bale- The boats
cannot, continue their operation if
they are to be patronized in that way.
Already there has been talk of
some off them the river, and it
will be an unfortunate day for Green
villa upon which such talk
should became a reality. Let the
boats be driven off the river you
will see freights pop up so quick it
will make your head swim.
The is glad the railroad
is here and glad the people are
patronizing it liberally, but don't
he so liberal about it as to kill the
boats. The advantage of
by rail as far as getting it into
Norfolk one day sooner is but a
fling affair, as the price of cotton is
just as liable to be up or down one
as it is another, and sometime it
pays just as well to be in the market
one day later as one day sooner.
Patronize both the railroad and
steamboats and divide your freights
between them. It is to the interest
of the business men to make Green-
ville a good market both for the buy-
ins of cotton and selling of goods,
and a very effective means off
this is to have the very lowest
freights that can be

Some Tariff Lessons.
Express.
The moving principle of
has just been shown in Georgia
by the action the farmers of that
State in deciding to hereafter use
cotton bagging to the exclusion of
jute, though the former sells for
twelve and one half cents, while jute
is only eight cents per yard. The
explanation of the change is that
farmers propose to make up the ex-
a expense to them for tho cost of
bagging by increase demand for this
cotton, which the general use pf the
cotton bagging will create. It is
calculated that if the demand for the
cotton bagging should increase the
price of cotton only a half a cent,
that small rise would more than
counter-balance the difference of the
cost between jute and cotton. The
analogy between this and the
for protection is evident. The
protectionist says to the
me to create a demand at
home for what you produce and you
will help yourself, for you will in-
i the consumption of your pro-
duct and obviously increase the com-
petition for it. That means a rise
in Organ.
The arguments of the Georgia cot
ton planter and the protectionist are
not analogous. The Georgia planter
covers his bale with cotton bagging
at twelve and one-half cents instead of
jute at eight, for the purpose of de-
creasing the supply cotton and
raising its price. That is all the
real interest he has in the mi
are built to manufacture cotton
bagging, instead of jute because this
planter will not the latter. The
bagging of these mills is all sold to
the planter so long as it is to his in.
to buy it- When it is not lo
his interest, he can go back to jute
at eight cents per yard. He has a
choice between two kinds of bag-
In this particular commodity
he has been able to force
but the price of his cotton is
still fixed in the free trade market
Liverpool. He produces a great
surplus beyond the demand of Amer-
cotton market whose price the
use of cotton bagging will not greatly
effect in Liverpool.
How is it with the American man-
He sells all his goods in
the American market with but little
competition from abroad. If there is
competition at home and a surplus is
created, he goes into a trust and
kills off the competition. He shuts
down his mills and turns his men
into the streets, and produces no
more than protection forces the con-
to pay hint a good price for.
Mis business grows immense and
discourages the growth of smaller
industries producing the same line
of goods. The farmer is bound to
create a surplus over and above the
American market or perish in the
sweat of his face. The manufacturer
controls the supply of his goods by
the assistance of protection. The
farmer ought to have a chance to bay
goods from the people, who fixes the
prices of the products of his field.
