Death of Sol. Goldsmith.

Sol Goldsmith, the announce
mentg> Of whose sudden death
shocted the community yesterday
morning, was one Of those hustling,
busting, busy men whose mind
was continually absorbed in bust
ness. His strict attention to bust
ness was not due to an inordinate
thirst for money. He was always
genial always liberal. Men of
such mold are always popular.
They possess the rare gift of
knowing how to make money and
how to spend it. He came in daily
contact with business men, and it
was among this class that he en-
ioyed the friendship of over
whelming numbers. He was al
ways in good humor He was
never too busy to return q kind
answer to those who approached
him in quest of information. He
could never find any time for play.
His brain was ryeted upon his
business. He had the commits
sions Of many to look after and he
preferred rather to meet the exac-
tons of his patrons upon his time
rather than to devote a portion Of
it in pursuit of his own pleasure.
His death was due to oyerwork.
He was a good citizen who leaves
many friends behind who share
with his family their sorrow over
his untimely death.-Arkansas
Gazette.

Yours truly,
HENRY BALDWIN,
Foreign Freight Agent.
Last week The Times published
an article on this subject, taken
from the Manufacturers Record,
in which it is claimed that the
movement was a fight by the com
Ipressmen for self preservation at
the expense of the planters. An
extract appears in this paper from
the Cotton Planters journal. which
is beginning to be regarded us the
chosen organ Of the Delta plant
ers, which, in less emphatic
conveys the same idea M ~ : '',
of The Times ais ms i''"o
ON tbc captain w, W. Stone
- same subject, in which the
, views of Mr.. Grasty in the Record
and Of the Journal are still more
forcibIy enunciated.
The opposition has kindly sup
piled THE lines with a number of
letters and copies of its organ, the
American t}inner, iii which the
claims of the congresses are set
forth. This is distinctly an agri-
cultural district, and the interests
Of the planters are the first consid-
Grafton of THE TINES. Its object
is to accomplish the greatest good
to the greatest number. Thus far
every communication received
from the planting interest on this
lsubiect has been adverse to the
project set forth by the compress
| linen.
THE TIMES desires above all
things to be fair and just to both
sides, keeping in view first the
welfare of the growers. If any
planter has aught to say in favor
Of the uniform bale this paper will
gladly publish his opinions on the
subject. The fact that all argu-
ment- yet heard in favor of the
I24Xj4 bale have come from the
compressmen and Intermediates,
and all opposition from the grow
ers themselves, makes it appear
that the change is not regarded by
the planters as desirable OF bene-
fetal. The constant effort of the
growers is to attain a position suf-
fcicntly independent to enable
them to handle, prepare for mar
Ilet and sell their crop themselves.
To this end every reform and
economy tends, and the time is
inevitably coming when they will
accomplish their object. Former
" all the planters Of this region
did business with the commission
merchants Of New Orleans. The
extortion to which they were sub
iected brought about a revolution.
The loan companies offered them
money, which was eagerly accept
ed, hoping that they would by this
means be rendered independent of
the middlemen. They jumped
from the frying pan into the fire.
The vast sums borrowed were in
many cases squandered and their
property forfeited without achiev-
ING any benefit.
The aim Of the cotton planter
today. as always, is to make him
self Independent and at liberty to
handle and sell his own crop. It'll
looks as if he were about to attain
the end SO long striven for. The |
congresses have been indispensa-
bic, it is acknowledged. If the
planters regard them as still neces-
sary, and the proposed uniformity
of baIing essential to their interests
let them say so; but if it is, as it
appears to be, the verdict of the
growers that the time to declare
their independence has come, this

DEBATE ON ANNEXATION.
An Interesting Speech In Opposition by
Senator Pettigrew.

Washington, June 23.-Discussion in
the senate of the Hawaiian annexation
question was interrupted to-day by Mr..
Rawlins of Utah with speech in
which he criticised vigorously the pro-
vision embodied in the conference re-
port on the Indian appropriation bill,
which acknowledges the rights of In
dams to lease mineral lands. He de-
clared that it was more important than
the annexation of the Hawaiian ISL
ands. He charged that spectators had
obtained already leases to much of
these lands and if the provisions pro-
posed by the committee were adopted
the government would lose $10,000,000.
Mr.. Pettigrew resumed his speech in
opposition to Hawaiian annexation. In
the course of his argument which was
forceful and interesting because he had
made a personal investigation of the
subject, he maintained that the harbor
of Kiska on the Island of Great Kiska,
owned by the United States, would
make much better coaling station for
our navy than Honolulu, as it was in
a more direct line from this country
to the Philippines than the Hawaiian
Islands, which are more than a thou
sand miles distant.
