in the Andrew j. Borden building, the prop

Evansville Appeals for Coal.

EVANSVILLE, Ind, June 5.-The coal
situation grows more desperate here each
day. The miners as determined as ever.
This evening city officials appeared before
the miners, urging them to mine enough
coal to keep the water works going, but
no definite answer was given. Tonight a
body of fifty miners left for Lincoln, a
station on the Louisville, Evansville & st.
Louis road where they will meet body OF
three hundred Pike county miners. From
there they will go TO Cannelton, on the
Ohio, and force the miners there to quit
work. Evansville and other river cities
as well as some of the railroads and steam
boats, have been getting supplies of coal
there. The closing OF the mines there will
add to the general complication.

Brethren, make your country homes
as pleasant as possible. By all means
keep your children away from the
towns. 1t is the country where we
have freedom of thought and r free
to act. 1t is in the town that you
find something to destroy your man,
hood. The man who visits the town
so often is generally not "a free
man but a slave. The man who works
for a years as a clerk or at a trade for
a living in a town is the slave Of the
man he works for and his tool. The
poorest patriot and the greatest tool,
the greatest servant is the fellow in
the town who is dependent on some
one for work and is afraid he will los
his place if he dares to have an opinion
of his own or to vote in an election
different from what his master wishes.
Stay in the cOuntry-be free to think
and act, make what you need for your
food and clothing. Send your chill
dren to country schools when chance

towns by all means. The town, to a
certain extent, blunts your morals and
destroys your manhood.

COL. H. c. HUNT FOR U. S. sENA-
+. TOR.

Correspondence Of the Progressive Farmer.
AS much acrimony is being engen'
dered just now between the followers
of Messrs Pritchard, Ewart and Mott,
I beg to suggest a plan by which all
diversions can be healed, harmony re-
stored and universal satisfaction as
sured. 1t is this:
Let us elect Mr.. Butler as the Popu-
list Senator, and Col. H. c. Hunts OF
Asheville, as the Republican Senator,
to fill out the unexpired term of the
late Senator Vance.
Col. Hunts election to this position
would be satisfactory to the people of
Western North Carolina, regardless OF
party. Although a Republican, Col.
Hunt has a larger numbero of friendsin
the Democratic party in this section.
than any OF Ter public man, who appre-
ciate him for his ~liberality, sterling
worth and progressivenessin,al things
which tends to the material advance,
ment of the State.
Col. Hunt was one of the pioneers
of the coalition movement. He went
to the Republican convention at Raj
eigh as a delegate and was active and
earnest in his advocacy of this move
ment. During the campaign he was a
most vigorous and effectual worker,
and to him in a great measure is due
the great victory which was won in
the Ninth Congressional district. Col.
Hunt has always been liberal handed,
and has probably spent more money in
advancing Republican ideas than any
other man in this section of the State.
He has been a successful business man
all his life, and if elected would prove
a worthy successor of Senator Vance.
Respectfully,
M. ", DAVIS.

Good farming brings into action a
far higher and nobler. impelling force
than is engendered by the sordid love
of money getting. The first considera-
ton in farm life is a home. This i'm
plies a family, which is the foundation
of social stability, moral progress and
sound government. The sanctity of
family ties gave vigor to our ancestors,
strength of character to their sons and
prosperity to u people. No calling
in which men engage so fully conserveE
domestic life as that of agriculture.

Since September 1st, the average de
cline In cotton has been about II cents
per pound. The lowest price touched
in New York was 5 9 16 for middling
uplands, and % for November con-
tracts on November 18th.
The price of cotton is now 2 % cents
cents cheaper than last year and 4 Is
cents cheaper than in '92, for March
contracts.
The many causes that have combined
during the last year to produce the
heavy decline in cotton from an
already low level compared with pre-
vious prices, may be briefly sum
married. as follows:
First of all, the long and proitlees
discussion of the tariff question by the
last Congress produced such wide
spread uncertainty and general dis
enlargement in all branches of bust
ness, that all values, both Of manufac-
tured products and raw ma.erial, de-
preciated greatly. Cotton felt this de-
pressing influence as did wheat and
other cefeals.
Secondly, the cotton crop Of last
year exceeded general expectations,
and since September 1st of the present
year large estimates of the current crop
have been almost universally made,
and the rapid movement of the crop
from plantationsto the ports has tended
tn confirm these estimates
In addition to these adverse factors
in the case, speculation has been abso-
lutely l~ifeless, and this fact alone would
have been enough TO make the price of
cotton sag.
However, as is always the result of
extreme depression or buoyancy in
In values, the pendulum has swung too
far.
The price of cotton has declined even
beyond what the unfavorable condi-
tions and depreciating influences have
warranted. 1t is Impossible to make
cotton of no value. 1t does not de
teriorate with age, nor go out Of fash
ion-the whole world uses it, and there
is no substitute for it. 1t is now below
the cost of production and that anomaly
is bound to correct itself.
At present the statistical position of
cotton is by no means unfavorable, and
even though the current crop should
prove as great as the largest estimates
claim it will be, consumption is increas-
ing every day and the coming demand
will in all probability be fully equal
to the abundant supply.
All trade conditions are decidedly
better to day than they were a year
ago, and yet cotton is 24 cents a pound
lower than then. Therefore, we do
not think it unreasonable nor uncon-
servative to predict a material advance
In prices within the next few months.
1t is always safer to buy than sell a
commodity when its ruling price is less
than it costs to make it.
Yours truly,
LATHAM, ALEXANDER & Co.
