y ZIG COTTON CROP.

We take the following from the New
York Herald, Of recent date, which
gives some idea of the cotton crop for
the past year and several preceding
years:
The annual report Of the New Or
leans Cotton Exchange shows that the
cotton yield of the year just closed is
the largest on record, the crop amount
ing to 7,341, ,539 bales, as against $685.
S26 in 1SSS-S9, and 7,069,79 in 1SS7-SS.
The Exchanges census Of Southern
mills is regarded as exceptionally full
and accurate. 1t gives most encour-
aging view of this industry. The num-
Der Of mills in operation is 270, with
1861 spindles. They consumed
during the year 546, 1868 bales of cotton.
or g., 600 more than the consumption of
the preceding year. The rapid growth
of cotton manufacturing in the South
ern States is shown by the fact that in
ten years there has been an increase of
l12 in number Of mills, l,257 ,92l in the
number of spindles and Of 35S, 146 bales
in cotton consumptionn
These figures show that the South is
moving forward rapidly in the manu-
facture Of cotton. and is going forward
still more rapidly in the fasare. The
mills are coming to the cotton. a

THE CONTEST IN THE FOURTH.

There are five candidates for Con-
grcss in the Fourth District. Sh II, OF
Laurens, Mauldin, Of Greenville, Jun
can and Smith, Of Spartanburg, Nc
kissick, of Union. Shell we believe is
the Alliance candidate, and we suppose
Mauldn and Smith also make some
claims on that. organization for sup
port, while Duncan and Mckissick, as
the Press and Banner would say, are
running on general principles. The
race in this District is being watched
with q good deal of interest.
There have already been some in
terestipg revelations over there, &C
counts of which were published in The
Herald and News.
We have felt an interest over here in
the success of Maj. d. R. Duncan. We
know him we'll and appreciate his
ability. He was for eight years the
able and efficient solicitor OF this Cir
cult.
The latest, however, is statement
in the Columbia Evening Record of
Tuesday, that Shell and Smith were
willing to withdraw from the race IN
favor of Col. McKissick provided Dun
can and Mauldin would do the same.
That would be a nice compliment to
Col. McKissick and we presume that
neither he nor his friends would Oh
iect.

in fact, every room in the building has
been engaged, and as applications from

TO GET : STATESMAN RIGiIT.

The Greenville News gets off the fol-
lowing, and from the number of candi-
dates that we saw and heard Of at the
State Convention for Superintendent
of the penitentiary, the conclusion is al
most inevitable that there are at least
40 for each place. So it goes:
"The news comes from Columbia that
there are already at least forty candi-
dates for every Office likely to be at the
disposal Of the Governor or the Legis-
lature. What sweet reflection it is
that thirty-nine of each group Of forty
art destined to be left
The surest way in these days to get
a statesman right is to first get him
!left,'"

TIE DEMOCRATIC TICKET

The agony is over. The battle has
been lost and won. The Democracy is
united. We trust the country is safe.
Capt. B. r. Tillman has been nomi-
mated by the Democracy of South
Carolina as the candidate for Cover
nor and will be elected. The family
fight we have had in South Carolina
is over. The campaign of education is
at an end. The white people of South
Carolina must be united henceforth.
All those nominated on the ticket
with Capt. Tillman are in sympathy
with him. The ticket was not the
preference of some of US. We are not
as happy over its nomination as some
people of whom we have heard. We
are not shouting and rejoicing, but it
is the Democratic ticket, and The
Herald and Newsis Democratic news
paper, and will support the nominees
Of the party and help to fight any
body who opposes them. We will stop
talking about Gilman and anti-Till-
man now and will help elect the Dem
ocratic ticket. We must have no in
dependents, no bolting, but the Demo-
cracy must stick together
The Democratic party in South
Carolina is the white mans party and
the white man cannot afford to di-
vide and will not divide. The ma
jority may not always be right, but it is
one of the principles of Democracy
that the majority must rule. If it
were otherwise We would have split
in almost every convention and we
never could agree for it is very rare
that the people are of one mind. There
has been much bitterness in this cam
paign which we trust will now pass
away and Democrats will unite. Much
of it was unnecessary and uncalled for
but still it was here.
We confess that Capt. Tillman's
speech before the convention accepting
the nomination was not in all partic-
ulars what we expected of him. Read
it. We publish it in full this week.
To our mind there is vein of bitter
ness in parts Of it that he could very
well have left off: He is the nominee of
the Democratic party and is expected
t. be the Governor Of South Carolina.
If the minority can accept him as their
candidate he can certainly afford to
ignore and pass over any personal re-
sentiment he might entertain. Much
Of his speech is good and is to be COM
mended.
1t is very probable that the ticket
will have no opposition. but if it does
the duty Of all Democrats is to get to-
gether and elect the Democratic ticket.
This they will do and B. r. Tillman,
o. Edgefeld, will be Governor Of South
Carolina.

Roanoke. Virginia, the Magic City of the
Southwest.

TO the Editor of The Herald and
News: l have before ME the Evening
World, and the caption to one of the
pieces is depot and Shops Of the Ro-
anoke and Southern" The morning
dailies had quite lengthy articles on the
accomplishment of this feat. The shops
will cover 20 acres of ground. Thus
another industry is added to the al
ready large list.
So much is being written and said
and talked about the Southwest that
one hardly knows when the truth is
being told. Such is the case with those
who have not seen the marveilou.
growth of places like Roanoke, Beuua
Vista, Bristol and other places.
Already Roanode rivals older places
as an industrial centre, although it is
only years old. With regard to busi-
ness activity it will rank with Rlch-
mond and Norfolk. 1t may be asked
what has produced this wonderful
growth in so short time? 1t can be
attributed to its railroad facilities and
industrial advantages.
Again, the men who are at the back
of these various industries are full Of
push and energy. Persons are invited
to make an inspection Of everything
that is claimed by the citizens, and al
ways these facts and figures are on rock
bottom. The machine works are con-
stantly enlarging their shops.
They have just finished paint shop
one Of the best found in the South.
Work is refused by them because they
are already worked to full capacity
which is II cars each day and 2engines
per month. The West End furnace
will soon go into blast, when we will
have furnaces in the incorporate limits.
Near the West End furnace ground
has been broken for muck mill and rod
works are completed over 800 men will
find employment which means an in
crease of at least 1900 to the population
thus adding suberb town between US
and Salem.
Midway on the East and West end
on the West we can look forward to the
time when Roanoke will have a popu-
lation of $4,000. All the appointments
of a modern city daily papers (3), cleo
trio light plants (2(, street cars, dummy
lines, first class store and factories and
like industries, superior hotels, ednca-
tional and religious facilities, put our
magic city in the front rank Of grow
ing towns in the South West.
With the advent of the Roar o,le and
Southern from the South we can safely
count upon the Baltimore and Ohio
and Chesapeake and from the North.
When such is realized, there will be
few inland cities south of Fittsburg,
that will outstrip Roanoke.

SUMTER, September 15.-The Till
mantle county executive committee
met to-day to decide what action it
would take in regard to the primary
election ordered by the Straighout eX-
ecutive committee for September p.
The decision arrived at was that it
would have nothing whatever to do
with the primary, since, according to
its way of thinking, and according to
the decision OF the committee on cre-
dentials of the State convention, both
the conventions held in Sumter op
September S were illegal and unconsti-
tutional, and the action Of the eXecu-
tive committee elected by either con-
veEtion was not binding on the Dem
ocrats of the county. The Tillnlanites
appointed on the boards of managers
for the several election precincts will
not serve. For the rest they will meet,
as a caucus, on Saturday, September
20, as agreed upon at their convention
on the Sth, and will then decide what
future course to pursue. This will
probably be as laid down in The World
to-day, and in November there will be
two tickets in the field.

TO DIVIDE THE DEMOCRACY.
W. w. Russell, of Indepcnd ant Fame
Comes to the Front with PROPOSE
tion.
IColunlbia Record, 18th.

Although it has been kept very quiet,
it was learned yesterday that w. w.
Russell, who took such a prominent
part in the Independent movement in
this State some years ago, came to the
city a few days ago and began to feel
the Straighout pulse. He approached
a we'll known anti-Tillmanite and said
he wished to talk sense and reason.
He then made proposition as follows !:
Owing to the dissatisfaction the
Straightouts felt at the notion of
swallowing Tillman, he said, it seemed
to him that it would be better for them
to put out a ticket and endeavor to
beat him. This, he said, could be
done. He then said that his party
could carry 10000 votes in this State,
and proposed that they would give the
Straightouts these votes if the Straight
outs would in return give their party
the Congressman in the Fourth dis
trict.
The Straightout heard him through
and then quietly declined to be par
ty to the scheme.

TIE sEprEMHER CONVENTION.

We publish on the first page of The
Herald and News this week full pro-
ceedings of the State convention held
last week in Columbia. Many of our
readers have already seen report, but
many no doubt will not object to hav-
ing it in this shape. Then too in this
report may be found the new constitu-
ton adopted in full and also the plat
form of principles adopted by the con-
vention. It will be we'll to preserve
copy of the constitution as it is the law
and highest law of the party and will
be of force at least for two years. There
are some things in this new constitu-
tion that might have been otherwise
but is no use to discuss it now as there
is no chance of amending it for the
next two years, and as it has been
adopted by convention of the people
it must be obeyed. We understand
that DR.. Sampson Pope of New berry is
the author of the constitution.
fit could have been offered ata time
when there was opportunity for discus
sion of it we are satisfied some amend
ments or changes would have been
offered and made.
The platform of principles is also
published in full. 1t is very much the
same as the platform Of the March
Convention.
Much of the time Of the convention
was taken up in effecting a permanent
organization. There were contests
from three counties-Berkeley, Fair
field and Sumter. The TilIman delega-
ton was seated from Berkeley and
there seemed to be little objection.
Fairfield occupied the same position as
it did in the August Convention. We
thought then that the Bratton dele
gates ought to have been seated and
we think they were clearly and legally
entitled to seats in the September Con-
vention.
The Sumter case was disposed of by
seating no delegates at all. From the
facts in the case there is no question in
our mind that the anti-TilimaD or
Earle delegates were legally entitled to
their seats and should not have been
deprived of them. But the convention
thought and acted differently. 1t was
clearly mistake.
After the permanent organization was
effected and w. J. Talbert got in the
chair the business moved along right
smoothly. He manages such a body
right we'll. The Charleston and Rich
land delegations were not full. Till
mans strength in this convention
was about the same as in the August
Convention.
It is all over now and we may all be
happy yet.
