Mr.. Hector d. Lane, Presiden
of the Southern Cotton Growers

home, at Montgomery, Ala, from
a tour Of the cotton States. The
object Of his trip was to ascertain

no material reason for it; that
speculation alone caused it. He
says that the Texas crop will he

THE SILVER QUESTION.

The only proper way to ascertain
whether the people Of this country
arein favor of The free and unlimited
coinage Of silver lies in selecting
delegates by all the States, in con-
vention, next year to the National
Democratic Convention.
In the South we believe the ma
jority of the Democrats are in favor
Of the reconciliation Of silver, while
III the West and Northwest RI
States we think the sentiment Of the
of the party i. against it. In the
Eastern aud Northern States the
Democrats are practically "nani
nous it, favor 81 letting well enough
alone, as they say. In other words
they favor the coming Of the two
metals on parity after an inter
national conference.
But the true sentiment Of the en-
tire party can only he arrived at by
All expression Of the States through
their delegates in the National Dem
ocrat,c Convention next year, and
it is both ur Use aud unpolitic to
insist upon making the money ques-
,ioH an issue in our State campaign
The Democratic party Of LOuisians
should profit by the lesson which il
received Tuesday, and we are con-
iident the best Democrats In the
State will agree with us that from
tins time on only demagugues and
and cl,ro. ,ic place hunters will insist
on making the money question M

actually be made before january l next.

1t is said that the President may return

in all Likelihood, to leave the lighthouse
tender at Norfolk, and take IA railway
