Tho Cotton Situation.

Something The State has been
trying to rub into the farmers of
South Carolina for years now comes
from Liverpool via Washington.
T'>e Post of that city quotes a visi
tor, Mr.. A. j. Elgood, connected
with one of the biggest cotton firms
of Liverpool, as saying : "The State
of Texas is getting to be moro and
more the dominant factor in the cot
ton situation. In very few years
from now she will be producing
100000 bales per annum, or nearly
half of the worlds supply. The
Texas cotton, too, brings higher
price in our markets than that grown
in the uplands of the Carolinas or in
Georgia and Alabama; it is of longer
and stronger fiber. There seems to
be hardly any limit to the supply
this big State can furnish, but it is
always to be borne in mind that
Texas is in the semi-arid region, and
there is no predicting when a bad
drouth may come along and cut the
crop down to nothing. Sooner or
later it is probable that the older
cotton States, realizing their irability
to compete with the Southwest,
where tho planters have nothing to
expond for fertilizing their lands,
will bo forced to seek some other
crop, for it costs at least one cont q
pound more to raise cotton, wo will
say, in South Carolina than in Texas.
The difference seems small, but it is
enough to impoverish one and en-
rich tho other" Paste that on your
grocery bills, farmers of South Caro-

But the United States have no from

But the United States have no from
tier save the ocean, no enemy whom
they need fear, and they have delib
erately gone away six thousar,7
miles to rob people of their landt
and to shoot them down if they dare
to resist. ... "
The United States are in that
perilous condition " hen free ma.
t!on is Oil tho very edge OF the preci-
pice which leads down to oligarchy.
One little push, and the whole move.
ment of the mighty mass may be 60
Irresistible that no power could stay
it. Wo are glad to note that
the best men in the United
States feel this, and that an ad-
mirable appeal to the people
has been made by leading states
men, labor leaders, literary men and
oilers, pointing out the dangers, and
asking tho people to agitate and
organize. Public meetings arc
already being held and mon are actu-
ally saying in public that they would
rather take up arms and die with
Aguinaldo than conquer with the
American troops. The latter, it is
reported, are sick of their despicable
job, and the secretary of the Ameri-
can Anti-Imperialistic League reports
that not 10 per cent OF the people in
tho districts he has visited are in
favor of annexing the Philippines.
But a stronger movement will
have to be undertaken than has
yet been thought of. We do not
hesitate to say that the United States
are moving toward violent revo-
luton, and our hope is that what tho
rich men have metcd out to the Fill
pinos will be repaid to themselves in
their own coin. The Presidential
election of next year will probably
be the most tumultuous and momen-
tous event of the century and will
aptly usher in its close.-Reynold's

"But there ia st;ll another ,yav -
aeyss s;sssss sowDEa CO., NEW yoisk.

"bnt there ls still another way to
look at it. Although more valuable
than the commercial niolasses, we
cannot get any more for ours. Then
there ought to be some way to util-
ize that surplus sugar; and if there
was enough cane raised in the couna.
try, and enough molasses made,, it
seems to me that a market would
surely follow. In the meantime,
also, it seems to me that people
should realize the superiority of
molasses containing so much sugar
over molasses containing only 20
points of sugar, with the balance
composed of glucose and other mex
pensive substances that are only
added to give it volume. +.
"But it is not in the possible sugar
making properties that l am fbas;ng
my confidence i'll sorghum. It is
good thing even without that, 1t,
can be raised at profit even with
out the slightest pretence of manu-
facture of any kind; But, of course,
it is not economy to stop short Of,
conversion into molasses. In the
making up of molasses, however, /
find the skin mings valuable BIZ
product. They are eaten greedily
by hogs, and fatten the animals rap
idly, provided they are not fed in
too large quantities at; first. Then
the pomaces are also valuable.
They are good for use in stopping
gullies in the field, patching terraces,
and also for littering the barnyard
for the absorption of manure. In
Guiding these things, you can safely.
put molasses making down as a pay.
ing proposition" B
Mr.. Wilkerson went on to say that
land that would make a half bale
of cotton to the acre, ought to make
at least 100 gallons of sorghum, and
this is worth $25. There ought to
be not less than six bushels of seed,
worth say 81 bushel, making the
entire product of the acre $37. Sor-
ghum seed, he says, are coming into
great favor for sowing with peas.
The cane lifts the peas off the
ground, making them easier to cut,
and the quality of the hay is'gfeatly
improved by the mixture..-York
