Opnos,d to anti-Option Bill.

CHARLESTON, s. G., Nov. 26.-South.
ern cotton planters appear to be los
ing faith in the Hatch anti option
bill, and petitions to resist its passage
are pouring in on Senators Butler
and Irby. A preamble Of one signed
by thousands of plant tiers In this state
says: "The re sent advance of about
three cents per pound in the price
of cotton from the lowest price
touched last spring in the fe ,e of an
enormous surplus carried over and
due solely to the development of
short crops and prospective smaller
supplies, absolutely refutes the asser-
tions which have SO long been cur
rent that the exchanges of the coun'
try are banded together for the pur.
pose of depressing prices of farm
products, and that the interest OF
all traders on such exchanges lies
in the direction of low prices, and
that all of their energies are devoted
to that end. This rise in the value of
cotton proves beyond controversy
that the laws of supply and demand
regulate values, any assertion - the
contrary Notwithstanding. 1t would
be to the greatest extent detrimental
to growers of farm products
to have their markets re-
stricted to buyers for consump
ton only. The present increase In
value of cot On is more largely due to
speculations of the world then to the
)nsumers, aud but for the existence
of exchanges that deal in cot IN tor
future delivery, relief that has come
70 the south by increased value of her
great staple would have been much
less than has recently been ex
perienced. We therefore request that
as our representatives in the United
States senate you will use all influence
in your power 10 prevent further con-
sideratioH of the "anti-option bill"
and thereby relieve the markets of
the world of the anxiety and uncer-
tatnty that is hanging over them
caused by the pending OF this I'M
necessary measure"

sing at Plainfeld, only short distance
away, and they determine to seek their
assistance. Thatcher Is sent for and

CITIZENS STIRRED UP

Over the Plan OF Converting tho Dcrk-
shire Hotel Into a Postoffice.
GREAT HARRINGTON. Mass, March %. -
The breeze created here over the postofiice
matter has been very lively. The Berk-
shire House, the principal hotel In the
town. is to take down its sign and be rele-
gated TO the use of Uncle Sam
No one denied that the present quarters
Of the postoflice were cramped, but out
side OF two or three interested parties no
one wanted the Berkshire House 70 be
transformed into postofiice. They said
as much when a postofflce inspector came
here, and he was satisfied TO have the let.
ter business continued at the old stand if
Charlie Watson, the owner of the build
Ing would make certain alterations. But
Watson declined.
The proposal to take the Berkshire
House raised howl Of remonstrance. IL
is the leading hotel of the town and from
June to October IL is packed with our city
cousins 1t was built way back In l760,
or rather the original hotel was, and its
stock Of registers contain names that an
autograph fcnd would revel In.
After UctS4, the hotel will become lit
orally the stamping ground of the post
mistress and her assistant. People begin
20 see that the town must have another
hotel, and negotiations are now making
toward purchasing the old Henderson
place, better known as once the home of
William Cullen Bryant, and building O
hotel upon it's site
