GOVERNOR CAMPBELL, Of Ohio,
in the contest which he is hay-
ing with a small ia ;tion of the
Democratic party located in
Cincinnati, is attracting the at
tention of the country. Should
he be as successful in securing
reelection as he appears to be
i'm the matter Of a re-nomina-
ton, he will loom up with great
distinctness as a possibility in
the Presidential contest next
year.

He knows that the women who

sUs.rREAsURY SYNDICATE
How a Few Men Could Control
the Cotton Crop.
Wanhinuknr Post

According to the calculations
of an anti-Sub-T Treasury Mis-
sippian, it would be in the pow
er of a capitalist having $780,
900 in cash to buy and hold $780,
900 worth of cotton, under the
Government warehouse scheme,
simply by reinvesting his so per
cent. advances, and that it
would take only $4,000, 900
capital to control an entire cot
ton product of 100000, 900.
The same argument applies to
wheat, corn, tobacco and all
nonperishable products, pro-
vided the planters and farmers
could be induced to sell at the
time and on terms to suit the
cash purchaser; and future
prices would be wholly con-
trolled by the syndicate that
owned the stuff.
But the advocates of the sub
treasury plan insist that it is tt
save the people from just such
monopolistic speculations as arr
here suggested. The planter
for instance, is not going to sci
outright if he can raise wha'
money he wants at the time b.
warehousing mis- crop and Dor
rowing so per cent of its value
thus insuring to himself IN.
advance in price that may oc
cur. and, of course, assumin,
the risk of any decline that ma,
ensue.
, There are objections enougI
to the system, and the oppor
tunities for speculation that ]
. offers are among them, but tn
danger in this direction is nc
as great as it is in some Others
At least it Is hardly supposabl
that the producers would ente
into any conspiracies agains
themselves, excepting in case
i, Of dire daress, to be victimize
by outside conspirators.
The Durham recorder. [volume] (Durham, N.C.) 1879-19??, 1891-06-24

around her that it is almost
boundless. 1t is to her that
friends come in seasons of sor-
row and sickness for help and
comfort; one soothing touch of
her kindly hand works wonders
in the feverish child; a few
words let fall from her lips in
the ear of a sorrow-stricken
sister do much to raise the load
of grief that is bowling its vic
tim down to the dust in anguish.
The husband comes worn out
with the pressure of business
and feeling irritable with world
in general, but when he enters
the cosy sitting room and sees
the blaze of the fire and meets
his wife's smiling face, he sue
cumbs in a moment to the
soothing influences which ACT
