And it is reported that 20 per cent.
was the last bid made, and it is not said
that the bidder got the money. Note
what follows:
Stocks are certainly slowly going into
stronger hands; in fact, it could not be
otherwise in times when ridh men alone
are able to meet the requirements of Il

THE WAR AND M'KINLEY's PROSPECTS

The general opinion is that if the war
IN the Philippines is ended before the
next campaign. it will help Mckinley in
his contest for reelection. His friends
urge vigorous warfare in order to end
the war on the belief that its termination
is necessary to insure McKinley's cleo
|-tion. Are they right? Mr.. James
Creelman, whose position gives him ex-
cellent opportunities of forming a cor
rect conclusion does not agree with the
popular opinion upon that point. The
Atlanta Journals New York correspond
ent asked Mr.. Creeman the question:
IF the war with the Filip.nos is
brought to an early termination, what
effect will that have on the next cam
paign?" He replied: s@
..Gontrary TO the view held by many,
think it would greatly impair Mckin-
ley's chances for reelection. Robbed of
its heroics, the situation in the Philip
pines. once the hostilities have ceased,
will be such as to cause even greater
dissatisfaction than now exists in this
country.
1.-THE glamor and excitement attendant
upon war keeps the minds of the people
in such a state that the public fails, |
think, TO realize what a serious problem
as to what disposition shall be made of
our oriental possessions, will confront
the government.
AN immense army will have to be
maintained in the Philippines, and at a
cost that will be enormous. twill be a
constant drain upon the country TO keep
such an army as will be required, and an
army in idleness is very different thing
from an army in action. The longer the
war, with it's attendant excitement, is
kept up the better will be the chances for
McKinley's reelection.
There is much Of sense in Mr.. Creel-
mans reasons. If Hanna should agree
with him, the war would wag along
until December 1900 even if Aguinaldo
wants to surrender

THE COTTON MILL TRUST AGAIN.

Ut DIS gratifying to note the sentiment
of the press of the South upon the new
gigantic scheme to put all the Southern
cotton mills into a trust. The propos:
at first blush, but the Southern editors
with hardly an exception voicing South
ern sentiment, see that it theatens the
milling industry of the South. The New
Orleans Picayune has an elaborate edi-
torial, answering the plausible argd.
ment in the Manufacturer Record,
closing with these sensible declarations:
TT is proposed to pay few millioa
dollars for some of our best Southern
mills, and to float three or four times as
much stock as the actual Investment rep
resents I'M Northern markets. After that
has been effected, and Il trust or gigantic
combination arranged, what will be the
next move? We can only judge new trusts
by what the trusts already in existence
have done. According to the accepted
method of procedure, the condemnation
which will secure control of the leading
Southern mills will at once set about
crushing out competition by making the
trade Of the smaller mills unprofitab'e.
1t will also begin to so manipulate the
market for raw cotton as to force down
prices. This is the history of all com
binations, and there is mo reason what
ever to expect that a cotton mill comlgn-
alton would differ from the Sugar Trust,
the Tobacco Trust, or any other similar
monopoly.
The Picayune has for long time
been strong advocate of the building
of cotton mills ut all likely interior po,nts
throughout this and neighboring States.
A gigantic trust, while it might help a
few favored points, would be inimical to
the rest of the cotton belt. Small mills
which now give profitable employment
to SO many people in small communities,
and which absorb so much of the crop
of their immediate neighborhoods, wo1id
be rendered impossible The Picayune
believes that the prosperity of the South
lies in localizing the cotton manmfactur-
ing industry by bringing the mills right
into the cotton fields. A mill trust or
combination would be hostile to such
desired result hence every wellIwisher
of the cotton producer and the section
in which he resides should antagGnize
the proposition to create a Southern cot
ton mill trust

WHITNEY'S ADVOCACY OF
DEWEY.
Fayetteville Observer.

AtlltNllt oUScINeI.
Let us consider Mr.. Whitney's prop
osition. In the first place, Dewey has
said that he cannot be induced to- en-
ter the presidential race. But, grant
ing, for arguments sake, that he may
be seduced from his lofty purpose, whose
candidate does Mr.. Whitney propose
that he shall become? The Republican
partys? If he favors Filipino independ-
ence, Messrs. Mckinley, Hanna e Co.
will never consent to that--and they have
the means of absolutely controlling the
Republican convention. The Democrat
ic party's? Is Admiral Dewey in favor
of offering independence to the Filipinos
He has never said so. But, granting,
for the sake of argument that he is.
how does he stand on the money CUES
ton, on trusts, on tariff, ON the income
tax, on government by injunction and all
the other vital issues of the Democratic
creed? Does he even know himself ?
We venture to express the belief that
either he does not know his own mind
ON any of these subjects, or he is opposed
to the Democratic position on them. If
the former. he is unfit to be The candi-
date of any party and unfit to be Pres
dent whether elected by party agency or
otherwise. If the latter, he is, of course
unfit to be the candidate of the Demo-
cratic party.
1t is plain, we think, that Mr. " hit
ney is simply seeking to use Dewey's
great strength with the people as a ma
val hero as the lever for side-tracking
Bryan. He will not succeed; for the
people are in no mood to repress their
aspiration for Il return to constitutional
government.

NOT TAKING MUCH STOCK IN IT.

Wilmington Star.
Yesterday we made some remarks Oh
the scheme to form a combine to control
the cotton mills of the South and put
them under one management. There are
very good reasons why this scheme
should not be received with favor and
the indications are that while possibly
some Southern mill men may favor II,
there are many others who will not, but
will prefer to continue to do business in
their own way Col Carr, of Durham,
is one of these. He was in Richmond a
few DAYS ago, and while there was inter
rogated as to what ne thought of this
scheme, when he replied:
1.-THE mills are paying such hand
some dividends that a syndicate can
not Offer enough to induce stock
holders to give up good thing. /
have stock in eleven cotton mills my
self, and every one is paying well.
No: the effort, if it is made, will not
succeed
A man who is interested in eleven mills
ought to be able to form opinions as to
the advisability of a change in our pres
ent methods. There are doubtless many
others who agreed with Col. Carr. and
deem it the part of wisdom to hold this
business, growing rapidly as it is, in our
own hands and let well enough alone.
We do know just where we are now, and
can calculate somewhat on the future
With our mills in the hands of a com
bne we won't know anything, nor be
able to make any calculations.

NEW SOLUTION OF RACE PROBLEM.

There are not many men IN the South
who, while admitting ignorance upon
some political problems, do not firmly
believe that they know all about the me-
gro questions. In the very nature OF
things some Of them must be mistaken,
for there are as many and as divers.
theories advanced by Southern men who
have been brought UP in the same COM
immunity with negroes as by Northern men
who know the negro only by reading
about him.
Mr.. Edward p. McKissick, at present
proprietor of the Battery Park Hotel,
NAslreville, who was formerly m accom-
plished newspaper man and whose opin-
ion is entitled to weight, thinks he has
found the solution. Here it is, as he
gives it in an interview in the Washing
ton Post:
'sMy theory of the solution of the race
question in the South lis not based on the
exodus or deportation of the negro.
have an abiding faith that the multipli.
cation of cotton mills in She South will
eliminate the friction that has hitherto
existed between the whites and blacks.
Their establishment means that the inn
poverished whites, who have barely eX-
listed on the farms, will go to the fac
tories, and that the negroes will till the
fields, raising the raw material for the
consumption of the local mills. This does
away with competitive race relations.
and gives to each a separate sphere of
labor The negro is particularly well
fitted to work in the corn, rice and cotton
fields of the South. but Gle does not make
frst-class factory hand The more
mills that are started the greater the
demand for white operatives, and the
race antagonism diminislnes pari passu.
No colonization theory is at all tenable:
but, as / view it, the problem will solve
itself i'm the progress of the South as a
manufacturing section.
There is a wide divergence between
owners who last year put negro opera
tives to work in their factory. They
claimed that the true theory of solving
the race problem was to put the negroes
in the factories. '@The negro loves to stay
i'm towns" they argued, land will never
be anything on farm except common
laborer. The white men are the men
VINO will develop Southern agriculture
and it best for them and the count, J
that the negro do the factory work.
Which theory is right! 1t seems GER
tain that neither solves the problem.
The white men and women have the "go"
in the cotton factories. The admission
OF negroes to work in factories DIN the
South would DE a grave mistake, but II
does not appear that he will go to farm
ing more than heretofore. The tendency
of the negroes has been to the towns
and cities where they become porters and
cooks and laborers. They may return
to the pillow later on and make Mr.. Mo
Kiss;ck's prediction come true, but we
fail to see that there as movement in
that direction among any great number
of the race
