The white primary election in Louis
lana on last Tuesday between the Nc
Emery and Fostery wings Of the De-
mocracy, according to the last returns,
resulted in the election Of the McEnery
ticket by majority Of between 1900
and 1000. The Foster side were red
hot against the Lottery, while the
McEnery faction were in sympathy
with it, but the Lottery question hav-
ing been previously knocked out Of the
race, it brought the question, to u
great extent, down TO pure Democracy.
Later news states that it is believed
that the Foster ticket has carried the
State, which we hope will prove true.

THE FUTURE COTTON,
Money in it If Produced With Your Own
Bread and Meat

\ New Orleans cotton firm has repro.
duced in circular form Il letter written
by d Mississippi planter and originally
published in the Grenada SENTINEL.
1t is the most thoroughgoing treat
ment OF the cotton situation we have
yet seen. After pointing out that cot
ton now sinks the money invested and
does not more than pay the bare en-
pense Of the labor that raises it, the
writer insists that, without raising less
cotton or employing more labor. every
planter must raise his own corn and
provisions. "a negro" he writes. can
raise cotton, but cannot produce corn
without intelligent direction
1t will hardly be believed ten years
hence that cotton has sold as high as 10
cents. The natural increase in cleared
land and the new land taken in in the
praries Of Texas will amount to at least
Is per cont. The present crop will be
fully 5000 bales, and there is no pros
pect Of one being smaller. When cot
ton gets 80 cheap that it can't bear
freight burdens to distant points. the
factories will move to it.
Every farm should be self-sustaininG.
tits perfectly clear that with 5cent cot
ton we can't buy everything, especially
when we produce only half crop. But
there is us much money in 5 cent cot
ton, if it is produced with your own
meat, bread and mules, as there is in
Is cent cotton produced with meat.
bread and mules bought at q dealers
profit Of from 100 per cent to grand
larceny.
With unimpeded right OF way to and
from European markets there will be a
good living in cotton, but even under
the present prohibitive arrangements
at the custom houses the only way out
for the individual farmer at the South
is to put his farm on q self-supporting
basis in the matter Of breadstutfs and
provisions and then to raise all the
cotton he can. It Is nonsense to de-
spair Of tho negro. He can do any
kind of work he Is taught to do, and he
can easily be taught to de- the labor
necessary for raising breadstuffs and
provisions-neither Of which require
as much work or as much skill in their
production as cotton does.
The cotton crop, as this circular
points out, will surely grow larger in
stead Of smaller. The farmers Of the
South cannot accept this as q conclu-
sion too quickly. Let them produce
everything they can for their own sup
port and as much surplus as they can,
and doing so, let them work with the
other agricultural exporting States to
enforce their right Of way 70 and from
markets. Louis Republic,

A proposition is on foo: to have all
democratic clubs in the Southern
States to 60 to Chicago in special
trains. 1t would be an imposing sight
to see the long trains, filed with men
in the heyday Of life, ardent in their
political feeling, steaming away for
the Queen city Of the West in cars dec.
Grated with streaming banners and
appropriate flags, and other devices to
arouse the patriotic sentiments Of the
people. The undertaking is not only
feasible, but practical, and we see no
reason why it should not BE- crowned
with success.
