ENOUGH OF WARS.

The appetite for war in this country
is being glutted. So long as we were
fighting against tyranny and oppres-
sion, so long as we had foe believed
to be worthy, Of our steel, so long as
we were fighting for the independence
of men who had struggled in vain
against odds for many years. so long
as we were espousing the cause of the
weak against the strong, there was
plenty of interest, even enthusiasm in
every hamlet, town and city in the
land. Men sat up all night watching
for the reports and filled the air with
deafening cheers whenever a victory
was announced.
All this has passed. The thirst for
blood has gone. it is different cause,
a different foe. And it is sickening to
read of the slaughter of peasants in
their own republic in South Africa
victims as they believe of Anglo Saxon
greed and vengeance.
There is something about war so ter
rible that the cause must be holy, in
deed. if one can look upon the death
and desolation which follows in it's
wake and not grow sick at heart. The
heroic offering a squad of Beers made
of their lives at Glencoe to draw the
fire Of the. British while their .com-

PREPARE FOR A CHARITY BAL /

There will be a grand charity ball
given by the ladies in charge of the
Orphans Home on the oath of Novem-
Der. 1t has been ten years since any
thing of this kind was attempted in
this city in the interest of the homeless
and motherless waits ans. castaways
who live upon the generosity of the
community. The public used to take
the keenest interest in charity balls.
and hundreds of dollars were obtained
in this way for the care and training
of the orphans. Since the last event of
the kind the ladies who give their time
and attention to the orphanage have
had to make appeals from month to
month for aid, and, while liberal re-
sponses have been the rule, it would
be better. in the absence of a Derma-
nent fund and regular income, to col
lect as much as possible at once, leav-
ing the judieious expenditure Of the
fund to the excellent judgment of the
committee in charge OF the home.
It is non-sectarian institution,
every religious denomination in the
city being represented on its director
ate. 1t is not a permanent home for
the children, but a refuge until they
can find real homes. Children are be-
ing gathered in all the year and sent
out as fast as people can be induced to
adopt or employ them. The utmost
kindness is shown them in the home.
and commendable care is exercised in
finding them places where they will be
well treated and respectfully reared.
There could be no better motive behind
a charitable work. Men or women can
not take interest in a nobler cause.
Those who are willing to take a
hand, who are ready TO do their part
in this work of amelioration. of lifting
up the children of poverty and shame
to occupy honorable positions and to
lead lives of usefulness, are expected
to meet in the Kenyon hotel Darlors
next Wednesday, when the plans will
be laid out and the parts assigned. It
is only by systematic effort that the
best results are obtainable, and a good
attendance Wednesday evening will in
sure a successful ball.

COTTON I'M THE SOUTH.

Now that many southern planters
have given up the idea Of raising cot
ton exclusively and have taken to di
versified farming the south is becoming
self supporting and prosperous. For a
long time the south sent north for its
foodstuffs, it's manufactured products,
its machinery and it's enterprise. Con-
ditions have been changing for ten
years until diversified farming is no
longer the exception and the hum of
machinery is no longer a novelty in the
south
In consequence the price of cotton
is better and the outlook for cotton
planters more encouraging than when
they raised nothing else and depended
upon other localities for the necessities
of life Cotton mills have been erect
ed all over the south which has exer-
cised a very large influence in fixing
the price of cotton, which has ruled
higher in the vicinity of these several
mills, in proportion to the price in the
! leading markets, than in any previous
season.
The trouble used to be that the grow
! ing crops were mortgaged in advance;
that the money lenders pocketed all the
profits and left the agricultural classes
with barely enough to live upon from
year to year. Cotton and cash used to
be synonymous terms and whether it
was growing in the field or piled in
bales at a shipping point it found a
ready exchange for coin of the realm
Last year the credit of cotton was
| greatly impaired-almost destroyed--by
the low price and the meagre crop.
Bankers grew chary of the security
and the present crop has been raised
with comparatively few membranes
Planters are in a position to allow
] the cotton to come on the market grad
ually, as the demand shall justify, and
will not have to throw it on in a lump,
as heretofore. For the last thirty days
cotton has been selling all over the
south at the same price it does in the
New York market, whereas it usually
sells there one-half cent a pound lower.
The present crop will approximate TO-
| 100000 bales, as against 100000 last
year. This shortage has something to
do with prices. but diversified farming
and the abandonment of the credit
system are chiefly responsible for i'm
proved conditions in the south.
