the stalks can therefore be left only

and other farmers who have seen tue
cotton say that if the bolls and squares
now on the cotton mature ana open, IL
will make four bales of cotton to the
acre.
Mr.. Wyatt is giving the cotton every
attention with view to making pfac-
teal test as to whether this variety OF
cotton will do what is clolmed for 1t III
this climate and in our North Carolina
soils.
1t is funny to hear some of the Will
mington ncoDle talk about those penl-
tertiary rice farms. For these two rice
patches | am told the State pays SS33.OO
rental and a gentleman told me that ne
could buy better farms for less money,
but these perhaps have no pull with the
authorities. They were Russelfs; now
they are Butter'S-so some folks say
and have been burdens on many other
owners but the State is Il rice farmer
from way back and don't mind paying
big money rentals provided the right
fellows are getting the spondulics.

North Carolina is to lose another Of
its brightest young lawyers. Mr.. A.
G. Ricaud. of Wilmington, will at an
early day go to New York to live. He
will he associated with the partner of the
late Sol WE'LL and will no doubt soon
make Il reputation as an attorney such
as Mr.. WE'LL was SO rapidly building
in the great city. Mr.. Ricaud is u
brainy, able and useful man and ms
friends in and out of the profession
will wish for him much success.
A gentleman on the train was figuring
MP the other day what the total amount
of cmolument the Dockcrys would he

they are seeking. provided of course,
they get them, which is n rather violent

to this gentleman's figures. he drawing
in the ncighborhood of FIFTEEN thousand
dollars per annum from the Golfers of
the State and nation.
They do tell me that tho plan put on
foot by Chairman Simmons TO organize
the white people of North Carolina into
white mans unions is causing some shak-
ing of dry bones in the fusion camp.
These fusion fellows believe III close.
compact alliance of the 100000 negroes
in the State. but they arc Mortified ut
the thought of the white people Standn"
together: but the white men are coming
together. and unless all indications arc
faulty. there is going to he II phalanN
of them in November that will meet
and defeat the negroes and their allies
and renaugurate decent and intelligent

Plenty of Rain-The Gaffney Celebration
Nineteenth Century Club.
Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer.
BLAcKsBURG, July I've are hav
ing an abundance of rain. Since yes
terday afternoon and this morning il
has been pouring almost steadily, doing
much good TO the growing crops.
Out of Difference to our enterprising
Gaffney friends and the elaborate
preparations they had made for the
celebration of the American Declara,
ton of Independence, those Of our
citizens who had thought of celebra
ting the day by picnic at Cherokee
Park, generously gave it up, and a
majority of them went to Gaffney,
others to Shelby and a few to Rock
Hill. Those of us who went to our
county capital were well repaid in the
splendidly arranged amusements, the
orderly crowd and the eloquent ora
ton of Senator McLaurin, which was
delivered and attentively listened to-
as were also the brief but patriotic
and we'll spoken speeches of Major
James F. Hart and D. E. Finley, Esq.
of Yorkville, and Attorney General
Barber, of Chester.
Although well aware of the enter.
prise Of The ENQUIRER, yet confess
that I was considerably surprised or
opening it Tuesday evening, to find
the speech of Senator McLaurin, de
livered the day before, printed in full
upon the first page of your progressive
paper.
Quite a number Of our people went
to Shelby to celebrate, and Genevieve
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. w. j
Wilcox, of our town, a petite nader
of six summers, led the bicycle parade
She and her wheel were beautifully
decorated in the national colors, ant
the effect was said to be very pretty
indeed.
On Thursday evening last, the mem
bers of the Nineteenth Century club
of Blacksburg, gave their husband:
and few invited guests the semi.an'
nual banquet, which is the only meet
ing of this highly intellectual and lit.
erary association that the second lord
of the manor is allowed the privilege
of attending. The meeting was held
at the elegant and hospitable home o
Mr.. and Mrs. o. A. Osborne, which
was beautifully decorated and bril-
liantly lighted, and the feast consisted
not only of pretty quotations, recita
tions and reading, sweet music ane

WAR
IS RAGING

1t is necessary to keep the plow on the
move, and while the drums are beating
and the air is filled with martial music
and the army is organizing for the front,
we should not become so demoralized as
to allow our farms and various business
es to become disorganized. The soldiers
will fight the war, while we speed the
plow." Let US prepare our lands with
the same thought and care as the general
and his staff prepares for battle let us
sow an abundant crop of wheat, oats and
pease, together with grasses and clover,
and the fields will bloom in all their
glory while the martial music of the war
will be drowned with the fairy-like song
of the birds in the spring, and peace and
plenty will most likely be our reward.
GUANO AND ACID are as essential to
the success of farming as gunpowder is to
war, and we have both in almost unlimi-
ted quantities, and we would be glad to
supply those who expect to begin CAM
paign for any of the above crops. The
Guano and Acid will show the proper
analysis, and will produce bird-singing
results in the spring. Call and see me.

MERE-MENTION.

Statements have been published to
the effect that there is yellow fever
among the troops at Santiago. From
the best information obtainable this is
untrue. ut was reported at Gibral-
tar, on Wednesday, that Madrid had
ordered Camara to return to Spain.
..'..''''The navy department believes
that some of the Spanish ships can be
saved. d.............".Since last Sunday
the European papers have changed
their tone wonderfully. Most Of them
are now trying to forget that they
ever championed the cause of Spain.
acknowledgement Red Cross nurses
arrived at Tampa last Wednesday on
their way to the battlefield. '''''''''The
St. Paul left New York Wednesday
morning with regiment of volunteers
on board. ...'''''.Spanish Brigadier Gen.
eral Vara del Rey was killed at Ell
Caney last Tuesday. He was stand
ing in hedge with number of bis
aides and volley from the Americans
riddled the whole party. ''''''Upon the
arrival of the American expedition at
Manila, all the foreign warships left
except two French, two German and
four English. ..'..'' General Miles ex-
poets to be at Santiago within few
days. .''.'''''.The Madrid papers refused
to publish the American accounts Of
the destruction of Cervera's feet be.
cause they were "wild exaggerations. u
.'.''.It is reported in Washington that
the president has decided to appoint
Sampson and Schley rear admirals
and Captain Phillip, of the Texas, 8
commodore.

THE PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.
Summary of the Latest Dispatches Pub
lished Friday Morning.

Summary of the Latest Dispatches Pub.
lished Friday Morning.
The president, on Thursday, signed
the resolution for the annexation o1
Hawaii, and the Philadelphia was
ordered to 60 from San Francisco to
take possession of the islands in the
name of the United States.
A rumor was current in Madrid on
Thursday to the effect that the bonn.
bardment of Santiago had commenced.
There was no American news to that
effect.
General Shafter advised Washington
on Thursday that a number of high
Spanish officers had come into the
American lines from Santiago and sur
rendered. This was taken to indicate
that there would probably be an early
surrender.
French and Portuguese consuls rep
resented to General Shafter that the
Spanish garrison includes only 5000
men. This is doubted, because it is
considered almost certain that General
Pando arrived in Santiago with pretty
nearly that number.
Every energy is being exerted to
expedite the starting of Watson's feet
to the Spanish coast. The fleet is to
be a powerful one, led by the Oregon
and Iowa.
Washington has unofficial advices
which are believed to be accurate, to
the effect that Spain will ask for peace
within the next few days.
Sampson reports that the sinking of
the Reina Mercedes was with the in
tention of blocking the harbor but on
account of the hot fire of the Amer
leans, the scheme failed.
The latest estimate of the Spanish
loss in last Sundays sea fight, is 1900
killed and 1900 captured.
In the fight with the Spanish ships
the other day, the Brooklyn was hit
As times.
1t was officially announced in Mad
rid on Thursday, that the Santiago
cable had been cut. This, of course,
may or may not be fact.

In every respect the banquet was a
success and the guest were so we'll
entertained that they would be pleas

Messrs. J. D. Kennedy and d. l..
Brown, two of our best business men,
have taken charge of Cherokee Inn,
and with their wellknown business
capacity, it is felt that the success OF
the Inn as a frst-class hostelry will
