Manufacturing VS.. Agriculture.

The continuous low price of cotton
furnishes food for thought if it does
not furnish money with which the
farmers may pay their debts. North
Carolina is not a cotton State and
her farmers cannot raise cotton to
compete with the Gulf States. Five
cent cotton will not pay for the making
of the staple. There can be so ,e
money made by farming in this
State. Here and there are examples
Ia e is, however, no profitable
money OPP. In half do .en counties
fine tobacco can be grown, which
brought the farmers handsome prices
until the tobacco trust laid its greedy
and damnable hands upon it. In
half dozen others fine corn grows: in
some others peanuts and rice. In
the sand hill section fine fruit grows.
In the seaboard and piedmont sec
tions cotton grows but not nearly SO
well as it does in South Carolina.
North Carolina is not great az
ricultural State, but it is better than
any one of the New England States
from which we buy some things that
we eat. 1t can and perhaps will be
made a great manufacturing State
1t has magnificent water power and
can make for itself better name
than the sample State where little

DISAPPOINTMENT FOR HOBSON.
Navy Department Will Risk no More
Money to Raise Spanish Ships.

Washington, Nov. 3. Secretary
Long has decided that unless some
reliable wricking company will un-
dertake to raise the Spanish war
vessels, Cristobal Colon, Nizcaya and
Reina Mercedes. on the mo cure no
pay principle, efforts to save these
ships will be abandoned He has
determined TO follow this course upon
the recommendation of the naval
board of construction. Members of
the board believe that there is an ex-
cellent chance of saving the Reina
Mercedes and fairly good one for
the Colon, but they agree that the
risk of attempting 10 raise the
Eizcaya will be too great. A prop
osition to make the attempt on the
above terms has already been made
by the Neptune Wrecking Company,
of Sweden.
Naval Constructor Hobson returned
to Washington to-day. He will ap-
pear before Secretary Long to-mor-
row to appeal for authority to take
charge of wrecking operations. He
has set his heart on saving at least
one or more Of the Spanish ships.
and believes the work can be done.

According to the returns, the senate
will stand: Republicans, 81: Democrats
23. This will give the Republicans ma
jOrity on joint ballot of so, enabling
them ta elect a Republican successor to
United States Senator Murphy, Demo-
crat. The assembly is Republican by a
plurality of at least 26. The Republi-
cans claim So assemblymen against 62
Democratic.
Every condition was favorable to the
polling of a full vote in all parts of the
state. In this city there was no fulfill
ment of predictions of trouble at the
polls The state deputies, authorized by
act of the last legislature, were most in
evidence in the east side districts,
where the cheap lodging houses are
located. The number of arrests made
was below rather than beyond the
usual record of a general election, and
in many cases the occasion was found
to be in the careleSSneSS of registration
clerks. Fights at the polls were few and
easily quelled. There was no friction
between deputies and police, one lend
ing assistance to the other in the pres
erVatiOn Of order.
All Colonel ROOSeVeltS associates on
the Republican state ticket are
elected with him. There appears to be u
loss of four Republican congressman in

THE FIRST KISS.
BY FRANK l.. STANTON.

Sweetheart, twas but while ,go-it
scarce seems yesterday,
Though now my locks are white as snow,
and all your curls are gray
When, walking in the twilight haze, ere
stars had smiled above,
whispered soft: Il love yOu,'' and you
kissed me for that love.
The first kiss, dear, and even your hand
your little hand SO sweet,
And whittier than the white, white sand
that twinkled at your feet,
Laid tenderly within my own! Have
queens such lovely hands?
No wonder that the whippoorwillS made
sweet the autumn lands!
1t seemed to me that my poor heart wou ID
beat to death and break
While all the world-Sweetheart Sweet
heart. seemed singing for your sake!
And every rose that barred the way in
glad and dying grace,
Forgot its faded summer day and, lean
ing, kissed your face.
envied all the roses then and all the
rosy ways
That blossOmed for your sake are still my
Iifes bright yesterdays;
But thinking of that first, sweet kiss, and
that first clasp of hands,
Life's whppoOrwills sing sweeter now
through all the autumn lands.

When President Mckinley called
for volunteers to 90 against Spain,

Sugar Factories in the South.
Savannah News. }

A rumor is current to the effect
that the Havemeyers, otherwise the
Sugar Trust. are contemplating the
erection of one or more sugar re-
timing plants in the South Indeed
the rumor goes to the extent of say
ing that representatives of the trust
have examined sites and terminal
facilities at Norfolk. with a view of
removing the Brooklyn Sugar Re
tinerv to that place
1t seems that the argument in
favor of bringing the cotton mills to
the South in order to save transport
tation charges ought to apply to the
removal of the sugar refining fac
tories to the South also. All of the
cane sugar that will ever be produce d
in this country must necessarily be
produced in the South, and some of
the best climates and soils for sugar
beets are to be found in the South.
The South is, furthermore, several
davs' sail closer to the sugar-pro-
ducing West Indies than the present
sites of the great factories. In short.
to transfer the reiineries to the
South would be coming as close as
possible to bringing the mills to the
fields.
