Mr.. Jno. II. McKit,rick, we under
stand, has decided not to sell another
bale of cotton for less than I cents
And he wants to know how many Of his
brother farmers in the South will join
him in this determination. There is
no doubt IL all the cotton growers Of
the South would do the same thing it
would not be thirty days before cents
q pound would be paid for cotton. And
it would only be question Of time, and
very short time, before cotton would
be worth cents and there would be
demand for It. II VIC had it in our
power We would issue an order today
that not another pound of cotton be
sold for less than cents, and If it were
obcyed the price would very soon go to
cents. And il none were sold for less
when there became Il surplus the pro-
duction would be decreased and the
farmers would plant something else.
There is no money to be made in this
country raising cotton for less, cspcc-
tally when the money to produce the
crop has to be borrowed or the supplies
bought On q lien. The trouble is the
farmers will not unite and at present
are in no condition to do SO, if they
were inclined. If, however, the ca )p
was not spent before it was made tnct
would be masters Of the situation.

The Columbia Register takes little
inter'ie published in the Atlanta
Cons citution rs text on which to
write long article on the railroad
facilities of Columbia. The editor of
The Herald and News always has been
and Is now Il friend Of Columbia and
wants to sec the town grow but when
some OF us in tho up-country tried to
get the railroads to give us another
daily in this part Of the State on either
OF the roads, not word of encourage
ment could we get from any Ct the
papers printed in Columbia. We now
have two passenger trains from Colum-
bin daily but both OF them leave there
ut the same time and arrive here prac-
tically ut the same time. And return
ing, the same is true. TO go to Colum-
bia on n passenger train you have to
spend "a hours practically and then
have no time for business. True, YOU
can leave here in the morning and go
to Columbia and spend the day and re-
turn at night, but as much time Is lost
from business as to go to Atlanta.
Then to 90 to Columbia you cannot
get what you want whcn you go there.
The truth Is We are delighted with
tho through sleeper arrangement to
Atlanta and the present schedule, and
we most sincerely hope it may be con-
tinued. And we say this with rs much
love for the Capital OF South Carolina
as any man in the State.
What we want is another train from
and to Columbia at some ether time
during the day. ~ night train would
bo o first-cluss idea. That schedule that
1t was stated was to be put on by the
Southern to run through from Green
vile to Charleston. We doubt if Tho
Register ever heard Of this train. The
Greenvillo Mountainccr or The Green
vile News can cnlightcn The Register
on this point.
No, tho Editor Of The Herald and
News is friend to Columbia and would
be glad TO give what little business We
have to her IL we could get what wo
wanted and needed there. At the same
time we are delighted with the Atlanta
schedule via c., N. & L., and S. A. r.,
and hope it may continue.

We spent Monday night in Colum-
bia. We were the guest of Rev. NJ. NJ.

Prof. X. =. Counts has been elected
principal OF Bethany school, in Suluda

accept and take charge OF the school it
will fall in good hands, and we wish him
success.
Our school will open about the first
OF November.
Friend Chips is right in what he had
to say concerning the low price Of cot
ton and that the farmers will have to
raise more Of their supplies at home in
order to become moro independent on
5 and 6 cont. cotton. The farmers all
seemed to think cotton would bring ut
least cents this fall, but now they arc
selling it at from 5 to 6 cents and glad
to get that. My opinion is that when
tho farmers plant less cotton and raise
us near as possible all their supplies at
homo they will realize good price fo,
their cotton, and not until then.

Some OF our contemporaries advise
farmers what to do with their cotton
and yet the course of cotton is subject
upon which every newspaper is an !g-
noramus. However, it is good plan
to hold your cotton until you arc ready
to sell 1t -Greenville News.
1t Is very dangerous thing to advise
what to do with cotton, because it docs
not seem that the supply has much to
do with the price. One year with an
other good rule is to sell as fast as
you can get it ready for market. But
It is matter every farmer must settle
for himself. The newspapers do not
know any more about it than any one
else. The Herald and News has
learned for many years not to advise on
this subject.
