A prominent planter advoca tes the burning of sufficient portion of the present crop of cotton to in crease the price to what it ought to be. The plan might work if every cotton grower in the whole country could bo induced to join the movement, but we apprehend a large number would follow the example of old Annanias, and when tho burning was over many planters would have as much cot ton us before. The laws could not be changed so as to force planters to destroy the product of their labor, and if any part of the crop were destroyed otherwise .han approximately it would be unjust and impracticable. Some other plan will have to be adopt. ed for raising the price of cotton.
 The best thing to do is to de- crease the acreage. Meetings could be held in every county in the cotton region between now and the time for planting the next crop. Delegates could be elected to cotton convention to be held in the central portion of the cot ton belt, and this convention could adopt plans which, if follow ed ont by the cotton growers, would increase the price next year. This is apparently the best that can be done now, and the Democrat would be glad to see such a movement set on foot.-L. R. Democrat.

the purchasing power of gold and the valne of incomes.
 While we limit the standard to gold, the prosperity of the masses is diminished and the power of large incomes in the hands of a few is increased, Therefore, the Demo ratic party IS for bimetallIc coinage and the taxation of in comes. Large incomes can better than ever aff }rd 10 contribute di. rectly to the support of Govern mcnt. Four thousand dollars |. year represents as much power as s10, ,00, dld in 1864.
 The ex stehce of an exclusive gold standard is one of the unan- swerabic arguments for an income tax. Free silver coinage and Il revenue tariff might render in come taxes unnecessary. But as long us the tariff expresses the household of the poor man in pro portion to the size of his family and all out of proportion to the size of his income, and as long as prosperity is dragged down by gold standard, the justice of an in come tax is as plain as its useful ness to the Treasury.

THE low.priee of cotton will ul- timately injure the West, where no cotton Is raised, a great deal more than 1t will the South. In tho South, the people can raise ev- erythiog that is needed for home consumption, and the present price ot the cotton crop will force them 10 do so. Hence the West eru wheat, corn and meat farmers will be cut off from thelr prinei- pal market.
 While We may sympathlze with then ever SD much, in general way, NC must not forget that charity begins Ut home and in order that We may prosper our selves we must go to raising what we consume; and then 1 we have any more tlme lett, that can be devoted to cotton culture. The cottou-crop of the South must be made T surplus crop, if the South eru people expect 10 hold their own, CT even halfway make q living Three years of } cent cotton will bankrupt this en lire seetion ol conl.lry.

SoIvinour Winter Dead.

The following notices from the the Fulton Democrat, of Lewiston, H., tells the sad story of the death of MT. Souvinour Winter. Our old citizens remember Judge Win ter we'll, and all join with us in extending sympathies to him in his bereavement.
 A SHOCKING ACCIDENT
 Souvinour Winter, son of Judge J. $. Winter, Walter Strode and a man named Marshall were hunting prairie chickens Monday afternoon between Adair and Table Grove. About four O clock the men came in and got into the democrat wagon, Winter and Strode sitting in the rear seat and Marshall driv- ing. Marshall's dog got in fight with Winters dog, and in the excitement Winters gun was knocked over, oue barrel being discharged, the entire load of num- Der 6 shot entering Winters right arm about two inches above the elbow, shattering the bone terri bly,, soNthat pieces were taken out by the physicians at Table Grove. It Is thought amputation is inevi- table and would have resulted yesterday had not Winter absolu- tely refused to submit to the oper. ation. The wounded man is at the hotel in Table Grove, where he is receiving the best of care.
 Judge Winter received dis. patch from Table Grove last eve hing saying that his son was rest ing easier, and that Dr. Munson of J Jacksonville was in consultation With several othsr physicians with regard to the disposition of the wounded member. It is hoped amputatlon may be avoided.
 THE LATE SoUvIE WINTER.
 James Sonvinour Winter was born Feb. l, 1860, at Monticello, Ark. During the late war his parents abandoned thelr home in the South and came to this country and have made their home in this city. Souvie. as he was familiarity called, graduated from our high school in the class of '79. After that he at tended Knox college at alesburg. He afterwards became a reporter on the St. Louis Chronicle. He subsequently returned home and engaged in school teaching. At the time of his death he was read ing in the office of his farther, Judge J. S. Winter. The funeral was conducted from the family residence Thursday afternoon, Rev. MT. Kindred offering words of tender sympathy and condo, lence. The attendance was large and the floral offerings were love- ly and profuse. The burial was at the beautiful Lewistown ceme- tery. To the heartbroken judge and his family are rendered the deepest sympathy ofall our people.

of the most acute kind. Some of the
surgeons of the army, the navy and the
marine hospital service are members of
the association, and it Is expected that
President Cleveland, as commander i'm
chief Of the army and navy, will attend
the opening meeting.
1t was only three years ago that the
association was formed, and its original
scope was not SO broad as that of today.
It was organized in Chicago by about so
surgeons of the national guard of vari-
states, at the suggestion of Surgeon
General Sem of Illinois. Its object was
then stated to be 'sthe advancement of
military and accidental surgery and ali
things pertaiRing to the health and well
fare Of the civilian soldiers, " and the
words national guard. were then part
of its name. Surgeons of the regular
army, navy and marine service were only
admitted as honorary members under the
original constitution, but at the annual
convention held in Chicago last year the
name and constitution were both
changed so as to admit them to active
membership
DIR. Semi, the virtual founder of the
association, was elected president at its
first meeting and has been annually re-
elected. He il professor of 9 i'm
Rush Medical college in Chicago and
the author Of surgical literature of great
value to the profession. He takes an es-
pecial interest in military surgery, and
the military school ut Washington was
founded through his efforts. He discov-
cred o method Of ~ascertaining whether
or not the intestines have been penetrat-
ed by q gunshot wound in the abdomen,
which is a practical contribution to op-
erative surgery of inestimable worth.
DIR. Semi was born i'm Switzerland i'm
1914. His parents settled i'm Wisconsin
during his childhood, and his early ed
ucation was received at Fond du Lac.
He graduated at the Chicago Medical
college i'm 1868 and afterward studied
in Europe, where he has since become q
recognized surgical authority. He was
for many years the chief surgeon at the
Milwaukee hospital, and Governor Peck
appointed him surgeon general Of the
Wisconsin national guard. After his re-
movai 20 Chicago, about four years ago,
Governor Altgeld appointed him SUR
ee0n general of the national guard Of
Illinois, with the rank of colonel.
