THR AMERICAN COTTON COM.
PANY.

The Manufacturers Record, of Feb.
10 d, contains a five full page account
of the new method OF baling cotton,
with illustrations. This history is
very interesting, and the plan looks
very pretty on paper. The new bale
will be round and the cotton will come
from the gin in fiat bats, say half an
inch thick and rolled on a steel roller.
1t is claimed that the bales will require
less space, less danger from fire, and
be in better condition after handling
and shipping. Extensive shops have
been erected at Chicago and the ma
chinery is beirg turned out rapidly.
We admit that if the Record has the
points of the inve1 ton in due form,
the round bale has advantages. In
fact, we have never doubted the merits
of the invention. We only found fault
with the reported methods Of the COM
pany embarking In the manufacture
of the machinery. We understand
that The American Cotton Company is
chartered in New Jersey. That in itself
is suspicious, for New Jersey is the
home of the trusts. AS a matter of
fact, no other State will harbOr such
combinations to the extent of granting
charters. Isn't it queer that a legiti
mate manufacturing enterprise, estab
lished at Chicago, and composed mainly
of Western men, saould go as far East
as New Jersey to get a cherter9 We
believe it is a trust, a powerful and s
dangerous combination. Appearances
are very much against it, to say the
least.

Swepson is not the only "boss" u
North Carolina legislatures have had.
New York has but one daily paper

Germany is showing q weakness for
American apples by importing twenty
times as many this winter a. che ever
did before. Germany also has a weak
ness for American bonds.
The sole measure that this legislature
has passed against railroad opposition
is the fellow servant act. This was a
just measure, but it authorized more
suits and the lawyers broke away from
the railroads.
The outgoing administration has been

incoming ad administration will fatten up
the manufacturers by increasing : the

late money into peoples pockets.

the bachelors and old maids ought to
be compelled to get married.
There is talk OF an extra session of
the legislature Please don't, Governor
Russell. We can endure famine pesti-
lence, drouth, war, but don't infict
any prolonged agony on the State,

do anything let EN- go home.
The Southern Railroad is to pay the
State only z per cent (being about 4
per cent. On the real value of the prop
erCy) but the people must continue to
pay the railroads 20 per cent. on the
value Of their property by means OF
high rates. The lobby says this and
too many legislators with their pockets
full of free passes vote as the lobby di-
reefs.
California is another Of the MANY
States in whose Legislature a bill is
pending to reduce telegraph rates to ten
cents for ten words. The San Francisco
Qapers say that it will pass. The PEG
pie all over the country are waking up
to the fact that the enhanced value of
money and the fall in value of farm
products demand q reduction in rail.
road, telegraph and telephone charges.
The millionaire non resident owners Of
these giant corporations will not as

commission will not do it till such con

a Solomon, and it il well that so much
money was put in circulation. But
how long will it be until that money
will be legislated back toto Mr.. Mar.
tins pocket7 Not long. When Rookie
Teller gave two millions to a University
he just simply put up the price Of OIL
two cents on the gallon and has already
xobbed the public of several times as
many millions as he ever gave to any
worthy Object. That isn't exactly
iegislating money into a mans pocket,
but the lack Of proper Legislation en-
ables such men TO rob the public, which
is the same thing.
But we are not sorry for those who
are to blame-those who vote to keep
such cattle in power by re ~electing men
to congress and other eff ;es who are
known TO be the tools OF the trusts.
On last Friday the Senate passed a
substitute for the House bill to refer
the lease question to the courts in order
TO determine the legality of the lease
by a vote of 26 30 "a The Senate bill
reduces the time from 80 TO 80 years
terms otherwise to be the same. The
objections to the lease were: The
secret in which it was made,
the length of time end the rental,
based upon the old value of the road,
which ia now worth two or three times
as much as it was. The substitute bill
removes but one Objectionable feature.

The statement as a whole, is an Interesting
Indication OF the results which has been
forming for months. TIE contraction in
business previous TO election, the heavy ex-
port sales, and the liquidation in all lines,
has forced on View York an immense fund
of idle money. attracted, in many cases, by
the small interest paid on balances OF
course, the pil:ng up of this money could
net occur were business active. but there
are signs that capital is becoming FESTIVE
and IS endeavor:ng 10 seek channels where
il can find returns. With cheap money
ard fewer debts outstanding than al any
time since tae panic, the chances favor a
revival Of business on sure foundation.
Il viii be recalled that the bond sales of the
pas; few years furnished an opportunity to
relieve the banks OF large amount of idle
money, but no such outlet can be looked for
now. The money must lie where Il IS or go
into investments OF another character. The
recent rapid rise in gilt-edged securities,
Ike government bonds, emphasizes the
point that money is seeking proitable
field. but this is narrow one. and VII have
