OUR FIRST BALE

Yesterday our FIRST bale Of cot

some ten miles from the city and
weighed four hundred and seven
teen pounds The coIored man
drove to G d. Wughts Oak Hall,
and Mr. Wright gave h!m a ten dol
lar bill and a jug of whisky as a
reward for his industry. This being
the only premium offered, the man
with the bale proceeded to put it.
on the market and be was offered
five cents a pound and not getting
better bid, he concluded to Store
it and wait until another time be.
fore he put it on the market
Some people contend that the
cotton buyers here should have
offered better prices, but the mar
ket quotations did not even Justify
the price bid, aud as cotton buyers
are like all men, out to make a
margin, though a small one, they
take a sensible view Of the matter
and only offer what they think in
reasonable bounds
While we think our merchants
and trades people generally should
raise a sum Of money each season
and offer several prizes to those
bringing in first bales from Miller
Bowie and Cass counties and
other counties adjacent and are
known TO trade here to an extent
that would justify them to COM
pete for the prize, thus stimulating
the opening Of an early market
and at the same time draw trade
we would not otherwise get.

Hone KONG. Nov. lh.--The Filipino
junta. representatives of General Aguln-
aldo and the Filipino government here.
has drawn up what they designate as al
''appeal to President Mckinley and the
American people" but what is in reality
rather in the nature of an arrangement
Of American actions in the Philippines.
The memorial AYERS that false reports
are spread broadcast alleging that the
Filipinos are responsible for all the fric-
tion.' points ont that the tension is
greater every day and any moment a
shot may be fired by an irresponsible
American or Filipino soldier leading to
great bloodshed.' and beseeches the
United States to help the junta to con-
troll u own people by directing Amer

actions with friendship. justice and fair
ness.

t~ilities," continues the memorial. 1.-The
Filipinos acceded to all the American
requests. but. after bottling up the
Spaniards in Manila. the Filipinos were
completely ignored when the Americans
advanced and thus deprived of the
fruits of victory. Now, after months Of
campaigning. the Filipino troops have
been ordered beyond the suburbs, where
they have no quarters and where sup
plies are difficult to obtain. All our
launches have been seized because of
foolish rumors that we would attack
the Americans and when we asked ex-
plantations we were not eve answered.
The Spaniards, of late the enemies of
the Americans. have been shown, every
consideration. while the Filipinos. their
friends and allies. are often treated as
enemies"
Reason for the sudden Change.
After asserting that the Filipinos
uniformly acted upon the advice Of the
Americans and Were informally recog-
nized by them until Manila was cap
tured. the memorial goes on To say:
I'VE can only attribute this sudden
change to orders from Washington to
American officials at Manila to avoid
compromising the American govern
ment by a recognition Of the Filipinos
or their government. The Americans
are carrying out these instructions liter
ally. losing sight of the former friendly
~intercourse and assistance and of the as
surance the American officials gave
General Apuinaldo which he commune
