Predictinp Ten Cent Cotton.

The Macon Telegraph says gentle.
man from Selma Ala, who was in
that city recently was heard to make a
sporting bet to the effect that cotton
would 60 up to ten cents before the
first of next November. He could
have found several takers, but one was
enough to satisfy him. He gave as
his reason for making the bet that he
had seen the cotton all along the road
between Selma and Macon, and that
the hot weather was 'giving it thun-
der" For a radius of seven miles
from Macon, he said, the cotton had
been burned up by the heat. At any
rate it is fact that the heat is unset
Ting the market and that there are
fortunes to be made and lost in cotton
Just about this time. We do not know
whether cotton will 60 to ten cents or
not, but one thing is very certain and
that is the crop is extremely short.
Ten cent cotton would be good thing
for the farmers and we would hail it
with JOY.

CraWled Under the Train.

|. The News and Courier. of last Mon.
day says: IA. Jones, colored, met his
death yesterday on the South Carolina
and Georgia Railroad tracks between
Summerville and this city. At 1890
in the morning a telephone message
was received at the hospital calling
for the ambulance and doctor TO
take Jones from the train at the South
Carolina and Georgia depot. He was
brought into the city in the baggage
car of the train. His right leg below
the knee and his left foot were crushed
terribly, but he was able to tell how it
happened. He wanted TO get on the
other side of it, and instead of walk
ing around he crawled under. He
was beneath one of the coaches when
the train started. Jones managed to
get his body over the tracks in time
to save himself from being cut in
twain, but could not manage to get
his limbs free. Jones was seemigly
strong enough to stand an operation,
although he had lost plenty of blood.
His right leg was amputated below
the knee and his left foot just at the
ankle. Jones died at five minutes to
four. The unfortunate man leaves a
widow and eight children. The fatal
accident was caused by the mans own
recklessness.

Slanderine the South.

In his gold standard speech in New
York last week Bourke Cochran, who
up to the time he made that speech
claimed to be Democrat, took occa-
sion to use the following language in
reference to the friends of silver in the
West and South:
Men of New York, toilers of Ameri-
ca, guardians of your own homes, will
you allow your rate of wages to be af-
fected (Cries of Never" "Never'D by
any man who never has paid wages at
all if he could get out of it2 Will you
submit TO this conspiracy between the
professional farmers, the farmers who
cultivate the quarre!s of their neigh
bors, farmers who labor with their
jaws, Populist agitators of the West
and the unreconciled Shareholders of
the South2 This is a conspiracy be-
tween professional farmers who want
to pay low wages and the unreconciled
shareholders who would like to pay
no wages at all. (Applause.) Here is
the real root of this conspiracy.
In commenting on Cockran's TRADE
the Augusta Chronicle says it is an in.
suit to the men of the South and the
West which they will not soon forget,
and one which they will promptly and
effectively resent. When Mr.. Cock
ran insults the majority OF the Demo
cratic party with the assertion that
they are made up of farmers who la
Dor with their jaws and the unrecon-
ciled slave holders of the South who
would like to pay no wac es at ALL" he
allows prejudice to run riot with his
reason. He demonstrates, too, that
down in his heart he still holds his
prejudice and hatred of the South,
and that he only needed a congenial
audience before which to speak his real
sentiments. Cochran was speaking
when he uttered the above slander, for
the party in national politics this year
that is supported in this State by such
newspapers as the News and Courier
and few of its ''me toos." In this
day of peace and reunion it comes
with poor grace from a boasted Demo.
cratic leader to be insulting Democrats
of the South. who, year after year,
have loyalty supported the candidates
offered by Democrats of the North;
and we much mistake the temper and
sslf-respsct Of Democratic masses all
over the country if they do n OF resent
the persistent references to their Pres.
idential candidate by Mr.. Cochran, as
a "Populist." Mr.. Cochran is an ora.
tor, and he may have pleased his mil
lionaire employers, but he will find he
has afronted the masses Of the Demo
cratic party, South and West, and &C.
mented them together more strongly
for Bryan and silver coinage.

Th naa PATRIOTIC Bankers.

The 'patriotic" banks not only took
special precautions to be able to get
back their paltry ''loan" of $l8,OOO,-
900 from the United States Treasury
whenever they wanted it, but they
have been and are adopting systsmat-
ic means to place the Treasury and
other sources of money supply entire
ly at their own tthe national banks')
tender mercies. The following ex-
tract from an article in the New Y ork
Journal will make clear how the banks
do it. 1.-The scarcity of greenbacks in
the hands of the public was illustrat-
ed by an incident which occurred yes
terday Saturday in an Office at No.
10 Wall street. There were present
six persons, including E. II. Holden,
banker of Colorado, who said:
Gentlemen, I will wager that there is
not a man in this party who has other
money than silver or silver certificates
in his possession There was prompt
turning out of the contents of wallets
and pockets. While at least three of
the party had in excess of $l00 in
bills lin their possession, every bill
was silver certificate. Mr.. Holden
then:remarked: I have observed for
several weeks that all my money was
| in silver certificates. Finding that
several of my friends had noted the
same thing, I accompanied one Of
them to we'll known bank in Wall
street, where he presented check for
80, 900 to be cashed. The larger por-
ton of the money was paid in new
silver certificates and the balance in.
national bank notes. People are talk
ing in such narrow way about the
dreadful result of Mr.. Bryan's election
and what infinite harm silver will do.
They seem to forget that the only me
dunn now in circulation among the
people is silver or silver certificates.
If we depend for our currency on gold
or its specific form of circulating note
there would be hardly dollar in the
country except the holdings of the
banks or the Treasury Department.

Five Young Toughs.

ROANOKE, Aug. 27.-The police au-
thorities of this city have unearthed an
organized band of robbers, composed
of five maybe more, young toughs
whose purpose was to murder, if neces
sary. to accomplish their purpose.
The ringleader and two members of
the gang are in Jail here and one of
them has made a confession, revealing
the existence of the band and disclos.
ing the purposes for which they were
banded together. The confession re-
cites that the band perpetrated all of
the recent robberies and outrages
which have been committed in Roa-
noke and vicinity within the past two
months and also detailed several pro-
posed robberies, which were nipped in
the bud by the arrests made today.
More arrests will follow in a day or
two

Fusion in Michigan.

BAY City, Mich, Aug. 27.--It was
after 2 o'clock this morning when the
fusion convention completed its Ia
bors. The ticket was completed by
the selection of David f. Haskins

worst fire since August 9, 1886, when
the whole business portion of the
town was nearly burned out. To-
days fire started in North Water

600; the Prenzlauer block, Chippewa
House, Cleveland House, Metzger
block, Perry Hotel, postoffice and
United States customs Offices, tele-

A Sensible Republican.

While we are bidding farewell to
weak k-kneed Democrats like Brother
Hsmphill, of the News and Courier,
and others like him, who have been
seduced from party allegiance, we
have occasion to bid welcome to a
great many men who are breaking
the lines of the other parties and rush
ing to The Dam mocratic army, which is
now in the field battling for the rights
of the people. Judge G.. M. Robins,
nominee of the Republican party for
justice of the Supreme Court of Flor
ida, is one of the latest accessions to
the army of the people. The Atlanta
Constitution says Judge Robins has
been a lifelong Republican, so prom
inent in his party that he was nomi-
mated for one of the most promine nt
Offices of the State. In visw of the
proposed division of the anti.R epubli-
can vote, which, if successful, would
inure to Republican success, Judge
Robins had every reason to hope for
victory, but like the patriot that he is,
he could not accept the platform
adopted in st. Louis, and he denoun-
ces that new Rspublicanism which
makes the gold standard its corner
stone and which ''seeks to immediate
the American people on the altar of
organized greed" As consequence,
Judge Robins declines his nomination
and declares himself in favor of the
election of Bryan and Sewall. All
over the country there are patriotic
men who recognizs in Mr.. Bryan the
only hope of the American people,
and who refuse to tie themselves to
the gold standardism which Republi-
can success would be sure to bring
There is no doubt that the people will
arise as man and 60 ahead in this
work.
