The Outlook for Better Times,

Landmark.
1t has happened this sum-
mer, as it never happened be-
fore, that North Carolina
cotton mills have had t o
send to Memphis, New Or
leans and even to New York
for cotton upon which to
run. The visible supply is
shorter than 1t has been for
twenty-five years, and the
new crop, the movement Of
which will not he fully under
way for a number of weeks
vet, will fad active takers.
We may hardly entertain a
doubt OF good prices for cot
ton in the fall, while as to
wheat the price is ranging
At and above 80 cents with
the prospect of a ful ther nd
vance. This is due to the
fact that the world is short
of wheat az we'll as ofcotton,
and the good prices for these
two products are what give
the assurance ofbetter times.
The farmer will have to eat
and to spare. His surplus
will sell for more than the
cost of production, and upon
the strength of these now as
sured facts merchants are
buying goods more largely
than they have done in years
and business in all lines has
experienced an impulse. The
papers are iuIl OF talk of bet,
er times, prices in every line
are advancing, and all the
country h as plucked up
heart. 1t is IL long lane that
has no turning, and We seem
to have reached the turn OF
the lane through which we
have travelled for six or sew
en- years.

commissioner bound Mar

and was released The total
amount he has defrauded
Uncle Sam out Of, so tar as
known, is only 16 cents, yet

THE RETURN OF BETTER TINES.
New York Journal.

hlIer EVERY ptTiOO vi IT.
preston comes the rebound.
Hard timas are followed
sooner or later by prosperi-
ty. This recovery is as GER
tain as the seasons. 1t comes
under high or low tariffs, un-
der vicious or sound finan-
rial systems, under any polit
icaI party that happens to be
in power when it ia due. Bao
legislation may delay it's ap-
proach, but cannot prevent
it's eventual arrival.
And now the revival for
which the American people
have been waiting with such
hear tsick impatience for SO
many yenrs seems to be at
hand. The politicians have
done everything in their pow
or to bedevil the situation
and prevent a recovery, but
at last their capacity for
mischief ia exhausted. The
tariff bill is out of the way;
the millions of dollars pre-
sented By it to the Sugar
Trust and other predatory
combinations have bee n
charged up by the public to
profit and loss, and the ma
tion has adjusted its new
burdens to it's shoulders,
tiehtened its belt and pre-
pared to take up the line OF
march.
The period of distress from
which we are now happily
emerging has really lasted
for seven years, although it's
most acute stage has been
three years shorter. 1t began
with the Barring failure in
1890. That, and some 9th
er Incidents occurring abont
the same time, led to general
distrusr throughout t h e
world. This was intensified
with regard to American Sc
curities by the repeated exhl-
bitions of recklessness and
dishonesty in American rail
road management, through
which our stocks gained such
a bad reputation abroad
that in some OF the principal
European financial centres
the mere name "American'
was enough to damn any Sc
curity, even of the most un
mistakabIy gilt-edged varie
ty. A drain of capital set
in, and from that time t.
this the outward current has
hardly ever been reversed.
We should have had ouI
panic and our hard times un
der full headway in 1891 bu1
for the extraordinary con
junction OF an unprecedented
American crop with genera
failures abroad. The worIc
had to have our grain, AM
had to pay US our price fol
it, and that STAYED of thu
crisis for two years more
Still, such prosperity as w
enjoyed in those years wa'
fitful and feverish, and th'
omens of disaster were in th'
air.
The crash came in 1898
when for a time the great in
dustries of the United Sta tel
came to 4 dead standstill
We should probably have re
covered within a few months
or a year but for politics
The business of the cOuntr,

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.


Boss Hanna's man, Dick,
may be relieved of the man
agement OF the Hanna cam
paign in Ohio. He has got
himself the i'll will of the Re-
publican magnates for hav-
ing bungled his work in bri-
bing certain Ohio popullsts.
Instead of usirg cash, he WAS
thoughtless enough to have
used checks and these disa-
greeable proofs of bribery
have gotten into the wrong
thands. The magnates aiore-
said expected Dick to arrange
for the nomination of a
straight populist state tick
ct in Ohio, and for Other
populist assistants to the
Republican state and legisla-
tive tickets, especially the
latter, but they didn't ex-
pct him to do it 80 elunsily
as to be caught Mt it. AS no
explanation has been or can
be put forward by Dick that
will atisfy an intelligent and
unprejudiced mind that he
has not been engaged in
wholesale bribery, it is oe-
lieyed in Washington that
Boss Hanna will seek to es,
cape responsibility for the
bribery by prcte2ding to re-
buke Dick by taking the
management OF the campaign
out OF his hands. Dicks bri-
berry has greatly strengthen.

ARMENIAN MISSIONARY.

Miss Anna Melton, who was for a
number of years missionary in Ar
menia, gave very interesting talk on
the missionary work in that country
at the Presbyterian church last Sun
day evening. The church was crowd
ed. The lady, while there, was very
neary killed during one Of the mas
sacres. Her story was very interest
ing throughout, Miss Melton telling
OF many narrow escapes from robbery
while travelling in the mountains of
that country. She stated that for
eigners travelling in that country had
to have passport which they could
get Of the local authorities and that a
soldier always accompanied them.
She said that the Koords, the robbers
OF that country, were in league with
the government, and that as soon as a
person received a passport the authori-
ties, or governor, would inform band
of Koords, and that the band would
waylay the party in some of the mar
row mountain passes. The Koords
have spoken language but not a
written. Some of the spoken words
are the same as the English ones and
mean the same. Miss Melton onlv
met one woman in all Turkey that
could read and she was governors
wife. Only about one-third of the
priests could read, and very singular
fact was that some of them could read
with their books upside down while
with them right side up they could
not read word. She explained this
by stating that boy, who was to be
the priests successor, was taught the
words of the Koran. The boy would
take position on the ground in front of
the priest who would lay the book on
the ground with the printed matter
upside down to the boy. The priest
would then point to a word and repeat
it, and then the boy would repeat it
after him, and SO on through the whole
book, and consequently the boy
learned to tell the words upside down.

signee's equity in the notes held by
that institution.
just what will be done with the re-
naming 200 notes cannot be surmised
at this time, but it is probable that
Mr.. Hunter will either again offer
them for sale under sealed bids, or
will receive bids for them at any time,
subject to the approval of the Court.
Mr.. Hunter had about $500 of the
funds of the bank on hand before this
sale was commenced, and his attorn-
ey's fees had been paid. This leaves
about So, 100 in his hands, the greater
portion of which will go to the State,
as a preferred creditor in the insolvent
estate. The GAZETTE has stated be-
fore that creditors will get but very
little out of the estate, and what they
will get will probably be realized out
of the 200 notes yet remaining to be
collected upon-not over from l to 5
per cent.
