COTTON SLED.

The proceedings Of the Cotton Seed
Oil Trust are viewed with deep suspi-
cion and excite much attention, Plant
ers regard the Trust as certain 10 clote
all competition for their seed, 80 that
instead OF 80 to $40 the price will go
down to Sc to So. The October num-
Der OF the VicksAurg Pldnters Journal
believes that this is not an unmixed
evil, bat may prove to be blessing !;
that S. to SO a ton will leave the
Planters only So TO SO a ton after pay
ing for handling and bsuling, and it
asks wht ther planters will accept this
In place OF $40 to 500 ton that can be
made by putting it upon their land.
Says the Journal: Possibly no coun-
try in the world has been more impov-
erished than the cotton States through
the fuic'd dial policy OF selling the cotton
eeed instead OF returning them to the
land as q fertilizer" II this be the
Gaze, the ta'e OF cotton seld is spe-
cits of land suicide, and it ought
never TO be sold except at a
pres that Will justify the pur-
chase OF fertilizers Of equal
util 'ty, and at lower price than the
cotton seed will bring. Efforts to
battle the Trust Company by combi'
nat on among the cotton growers the
Planters DOES not believe in, and says:
"The Planters would Iathe; sink into
abject poverty than combine and tick
togs Their as a unit on anything, no
matter how vital TO their interests. "
Perhaps the Oil Trust may prove to
be the very thing 10 teach them what
all the rest of the world knows, that
ain union there is strength" Ia con
clusion the Planters declares: awe
do not exaggerate when we say thai
II the present low price of seed shall
cause tie planters to put them on
their lands, 1t will prove the grestett
blessing given to Southern agriculture
since the war"

was taken to indicate change of policy in ref

course, we may assume that primarily Mr.

for granted that amicable relations would nave

definite settlement arrived at, ii Mr..
Jewett had not stood in the way. Mr.
Jewett occupied position of relentless hostility
to the Eric; the trust had come to him simply as
head of that company, and therefore should have
been relinquished as soon as his official connec-
ton with that corporation ceased; but, instead
of that, he held on and used his powers in the
Chicago road so as to harass and embarrass Erie
in every conceivable way. and finally the matter
developed into feeling of personal .enmity,
which effectually precluded all thought OF an
agreement between the parties concerned

now it will be possible for the Erie and Chicago

matters in q reasonable and calm manner, and
certainly we may assume that any proposition
that the Erie may have to make will be care
fully considered instead of treated as an imperti-

A Healthy Growth.

In 1870 the Atchison, Topeka 6 Santa Fe had
only twenty eight miles of completed road, but
in 1874 the mileage had risen to sos, and to-day
it embraces (Atchison and southern Kansasl
1897, in addition to which is the Sonora system,
with $50 miles, and three small lines of 148
miles, in which the Atchison has an interest with
other roads, making altogether 1896 miles of
completed road. All this, however, is indepen-
dent Of the Atlantic & Pacific, the California
Southern, and the Mojave extension of the South
ern Pacific, which add over a thousand miles
more, and bring the total mileage controlled by
the company to 1000. When the Gulf, Colorado
e. Santa Fe is taken in and its proposed new
lines completed, the Atchison system will be
still larger and one of the most extensive in the
country.
