MEMBERS of the cotton seed com bine claim that there is no combine at all, and that instead of agreeing to pay only 8 per ton for seed, they are now paying $6. lift is actually true that they are paying this price, it is because they cannot get seed at 5, and if the farmers who have the seed will demand it, they can getS10 or SIP per ton, which is something like fair price. By all means hold tyour cotton seed for better prices. - Russellville Democrat.

WHY FARMERS
NEED FACTOR

NEED "A GTORIES.
 Says the Birmingham 4ge-Herold:
 The Massachusetts farmer gets E $23 per acre for his corn, while the Kansas farmer gets only $17; yet the farming lands of Massachusetts are poor, and of Kansas very rich. It is the home market that makes the difference. Massachusetts is a great manufacturing State and the opera tives must have bread. There is no fertilizer for the farmers fields like the smoke of the factory chimneys. Without doubt the farmers in the Birmingham district get more per acre for their corn than the farmers of the black belt because the market is at their doors. If any black belt farmer is dissatisfied with the price he gets for his con in the black belt let him sell his plantations and buy land in the Birmingham district.
 Commenting on the above para, graph, the NaaQfactluer's Record wisely remal ks: "Wherever a fac tory is placed in operation in the South it will place a certain amount of money in the pockets of the farm CTS and truck-growers for food for it's employees. The cotton mills at Greenville, Spartanburg. Charlotte and other industrial centers give employment to thousands of people They and their families must have meal, flour, meat and vegetables, all of which can be produced in the country surrounding these cities. Fer such reasons the Southern farm er should encourage industries as much as the merchant. They mean 8 steady demand for his crops and a never-failing source of gain to him.

ENGLAND apparently does not like the message sent by Secretary Olney relative to the Schomburg boundary line between England and Venezu- ela. In it Mr Olney said the United States looked upon the dispute as to the location of the boundary line as a mere disguise under which Great Britain is attempting, by superior force, to extend Ter territory in America, which is a direct violation of the Monroe doctrine, and will never be submitted to by the United States. The message has not yet been replied to by England, but it is easy to guess the course she will pursue. She will simply have to do as the message bids, and keep hands off

In "A Green Goods Man, ? which is announced as the attraction at the Opera-house, Thursday, Oct. 10th, is to be found all the latest foibles and crazes of the day. The new woman and the new man, are cleverly satirized, a burlesque on Trilby is given, with the famous barefoot TriIby dance, in which four young ladies take part, is also seen. This has proven the back bone of this great farce's success. in always keeping abreast of the times. An up-to-date performance is always given, for as soon as a new craze or foibIe appears it is in- corporated in this elastic farce. The songs and dances are also con tinually changed, so that perform ance entirely new and devoid of all old features is given The farce Itself IS satire on the geen goods and bunco swindIes, and portrays the adventures of the Yankee farmer in New York City. and his expe- riences with bunco men.

AT THE THEATERS.
Observation-Disclosures

MetrOpOIitan-ElBO Grip
The Wilburs opened another week of
their summer engagement at the Metro
politan last night with a rendition of
Balfe's ever-popular Bohemian Girl
Among the lighter operas now being
presented before the American people
there is scarce another which has such
a hold upon the favor of the public.
It's gems of song have become practi-
cally household music. Everybody
knows the choice numbers who knows
anything about music at all. 'The
Heart Bowed Down." 'I Dreamed L
Dwell in Marble Halls" and you'll
Remember Me- are not strange sounds
to the ears of a theater-going people.
Everybody huns, sings or whistles
them at times. 1t is, therefore, but a
natural consequence that a splendid
performance, by a good company,
should meet with a. hearty reception at
the hands of a large and appreciative
audience, which filled the Metropolitan
last night. The cast was good and
every fayorite solo was encored, and
the encores had to be answered. E. A
Clarke was at the head of the cast as
Count Arnheim. 1t is a thankful role,
and Mr.. Clarke gave it in the spirit of
the author. He improved constantly
during the progress of the play, and
was especially good in the solo ''The
Heart Bowed Down.
In the last act and closing scene, in
the trio between the count. Airline and
Thaddeus, the work of all three was
exceptionally fine. Mr.. Conley as
Thaddeus had ample opportunities to
show his clean tenor to advantage, and
in his "Fair Land of Poland" received
much merited applause. when Other
Hearts was rendered feelingly, and an
encore was almost insisted upon. Miss
EloiSe Mortimer was cast for Airline.
There is no need to elaborate upon her
work. The record which she has made
since the present engagement began,
and which fully sustains all that has
been said of the lady in the press. was
fully maintained by last nights work.
In all Of the many solos Miss Mortimer
had to respond to recalls time and
again. Miss Hattie Richardson as the
Gypsy Queen is entitled to NOSE favor
Hble mention, not only for her singing,
but for the hiStrionic work in the role.
Claude Amsden as Devilshoof made the
most of the part, and did not fail to
impart some of his humor to the char
acter. The support was good, and the
chorus seemed to warm to the work
as the opera progressed, until it be-
came a well-managed and properly
singing body by the time the second act
was fairly on. The voices are young,
strong and fresh, and all that the
chorus needs is to watch the conductor
in order to do effective work.
A suggestion to the director would
not be out Of place. We would like to
hear the orchestra, and especially the
brass section, a little more subdued in
the solo numbers.
.'The Bohemian Girl" will run until
Wednesday night, with matinee on
Wednesday, after which "Falka" will
fill out the rest of the week. A number
of new living pictures were added last
night, which pleased immensely, and
which are fully as good as those pre-
sented last week. The pictures will
close each performance.

exporting nations. A second dia-
gram, also in colors, gives the con-
sumption of the country in the
years 1880 to 1894, inclusive, by tons,
and also the consumption per capita
of population. The consumption has
risen in the fifteen years from $780,
600 tons to something over 2,000,0 900
tons, while the consumption which
in 1880 was 42.9 pounds per capita
rose in 1891 to sc pounds. The close
relation of consumption and price is
shown in the rise in consumption
accompanying the fall in price In
1880 raw sugar ranged between six
and nine cents, while in 1894 it
ranged from 90 to 19 cents per
pound.
The money barometer continues
to show favorable readings. When
we compare the percentages of each

in New York in June, 1895, with

currency, out of which has come the
! rapid improvement of our industries
In June, 1894, with congress still in

of the president and Secretary Car
Isle of a monetary system rejected,
the lack of confidence was shown in
the fact that S3.6 per cent of the re-

redeemable in gold, and rs per cent

centage of silver certificates had
fallen to 36.2, and the greenbacks
had risen to co.,, while the Sher-
mans had fallen to 34. No data
