your policy is correct. What we

rect. You cannot maintain the one

clare a perpetual truce Instead
of this, we present the spectacle OF

the Declaration of Independence to
a Democratic Convention, of a
Democrat who on May 18th pub

We understand that one of the
oil mill gins in Greenville has
been equipped with an American
Cotton Cos. round bale press.
We have never been an advocate
of the round bale, as a plantation
press, thinking it wiser for the
planter to let the new system pass
the experimental stage at the ex-
pense of other people, before
adopting it himself We have Of
ten wanted to see the round bale
tested solely upon les merits, free
of any artificial advantage, and
this press, operated, as it will he,
by the side of the square, will af-
ford this opportunity. The plant
er has no sentimental attachment
to the square bale,-be will put his
cotton into the shape that will
command the best price. If the
much advertised claims of the
round bale are true, if it COM
mands a cheaper insurance and
freight rate, needs no bagglng,
ties, storage or COMPRISING, is In
greater demand at the mills and
brings from one-half to three
quarters of a cent premium, in
addition to all these other adyant-
ages. here is the opportunity for
our esteemed Democratic anti
trust chairman, Senator Jones, to
shower his bene6cence upon an
appreciative community; for this
is his own dear press,-the one he
pushes along solely because 1t is a
good thing for the cotton grower.
we confess to having always been a
doubling Thomas touching all these
things claimed for the round bale.
but we are open to conviction.
If sample from this round bale
can be laid ont on a table, by the
side of one from the square bale,
and in q fair market command the
higher price,-then we are for the
round bale. We are somewhat
curious to see what percentage of
cotton ginned by this mill will be
put into round bales. If its claims
are true, there should not be anv
doubt of the success of the expert
ment here.

1t is with the deep regret of a
personal loss-the loss of an in
innate friend of the years that are
past-that we note the death of
Capt. John S. Lewis, long the
editor of the Woodville Repuhli-
can. He was a man of broad
and liberal mind and of the high
est ideals of manhood and honor.
Fidelity to convictions of truth
and right was his strongest char
acteristic-one that marked all of
his words and acts, in private life
and journalistic work. Capt.
Lewis served throughout the war
in the Sixteenth Mississippi re-
giment, of the Featherston-P osey-
Harris brlgade--being captain at
the close, of the Wilkinson county
company Of the regiment. He
was a native of Woodville, where

There is one matter about which
the people of this part of the
state should register a complaint.
We refer to the miserable passen-
ger Accommodations furnished them
by the Y. & NJ. V. and Southern
railroads. The coaches furnished
this section by these roads would
make creditable cattle cars, but
nothing else. The Valley road
would no more think of using,
north of Memphis, the cars she
lays aside for use between Rolling
Fork and Coahoma, Leland and
GreenvilIe, and Greenville and
Huntington, than the Southern
would of using its Greenville end
cars east of Birmingham, or of
running the "Jumna' out of At
lanta. Greenville Is the largest
town in the richest section of Mis-
sissippi, and not emily deserves
better treatment in the way of
passenger accommodations, but
should demand it. By the way,

THE ROGUE SWAMP.

One of the most important Sec
tions of Washington county i:
that enormously designated "the
Bogue swamp" 1t is not an ex-
aggeration to say that the degree
of ignorance concerning this sec.
ton, which obtains in Greenville
and some other parts of the county,
is equally as great as that which
takes the place of information
among hill people in regard to
the Delta at large.
To begin with, it is called a
swamp, and most of our people
imagine it to look just like it did
when it was the resort of those
who went from Greenville on pc
can hunts and fish-fries. 1t would
be just as correct to speak of the
Deer Creek swamp, or the Lake
Washington swamp, as to refer to
the thousands of acres of cultivat-
ed land out there, as the Bogue
swamp. 1t is generally thought
that this country is SO low and fiat
and marshy that drainage is next
to impossible, and we have been
frequently told by sensible. men
that it must have been impossible
to cultivate such land at all, during
such spring as we had this year.
Yet we believe, without denying
any of these charges, that the
Bogue swamp will show a crop
that will manage to average fairly
we'll with the rest of the county.
The Y. & M. V. railroad has
just completed q branch road from
Leland through small portion of
this swamp, and, though the road
by no means runs through the
best part of it, as one who desires
to see the rest of the county made
acquainted with what has been
heretofore a terra inc0gnita, the
editor of The Times would like to
have every business man and
planter in Greenvllle and the
county go out and take look at it.

for all except the cheapest editions.
With the general demand for
handsome volumes, and higher
degree of skill in the bookman's
art, has come the innovation in
the methods of introducing such
productions. You are notified by
a neatly executed circular that
your name has been suggested to
Mess. So-and-So as a lover of good
literature and fine books. You are
told something of the merits of
this particular work, upon which
so many scholars have been en-
gagged for so many years, at a cost
to the publishers of SO much. You

books, and they have not been de-
ceived in regard to you, and per-
nit them to interview you through
their Mr.. Blank. You do SO, and

course of laboring men, he said,

1t SO happened that Roosevelt

Just then, over the ,outrages daily

them, at any rate.

which, by its laws, denied men,
bership to negroes, and thus made
the giving of employment to these
american laborers," in all the
cities of the North, almost mat
ter of impossibility. Bourke
Cochran spoke the truth, when he
said at Montgomery last spring:
Sin New York, just before an cleo

begins its daily march, we tel!
you No! you can't walk in this
parade, we don't know you"
He was addressing his words to
the gallery, and Booker I. Wash
ington, who sat there, led the APP
plause which greeted them.
A conspicuous feature of the re-
cent q. A. R. parade in Chicago
was the carriages containing the
colored contingent Of the Say
tours of the Union They were
cheered all along the line, yet at
that moment negro brick layers
could not get work on Chicago
buildings, because the Brick Lay
ers Union said they could not.
These facts are all notorious,
and are testified to by white and
black alike. There is but one
place in America where the negro,
for whose welfare Northern Re-
b.
publicans are so solicitous, may
find ample and unrestricted oppor-
tunity for work; the South is the
only place where this american

of earning the reward of honest

We fail to see why some of our
Democratic spell binders do not
break away from their imperial
ism refrain, for an hour or SO, and
call down such paIpable frauds as
Roosevelt, Davis, and their kind.

1t is questionable if we shall
ever see the day when a Demo
cratic Convention will have nerve
enough to make q positive declara-
ton against pension abuses, with
the determination to make good
its words. Of course NO one OK
poets the Republican party to
commit suicide in any such
patriotic cause. Mr.. Mckinley
felicitates the country generally
upon the fact that Congress
''has enacted bills for the most
liberal treatment of the pen
sioners and their widows" and
gloats over the fact that the gov
eminent expended for pensions in
1900 $40, S77,316, as against a
beggarly sum of $I39, 1874, 929 in
1899. He does not make the spe-
CHIC promise. but, if reelected, he
may be depended upon to do all

and thinks OF the millions of mon

pie are annually defrauded on this

the greatest man the Democratic
party has produced since Jefferson.
IF America is ever fortunate
enough to have another president
with Cleveland's common sense
and backbone, we may see some
reformation OF these abuses, but
not until then. The Republican
party fattens on them and the
Democratic party is afraid to tackle
the job. Meanwhile the q. A. r.

..Crops..

There has been absolutely no
change worth noting, during the
week, in the cotton crop. THIS is
equally true of the county, state
and South.
As picking progresses, we De-
lieve the shortness of the crop Is
being developed, and we are con-
vinced that three more weeks OF
the gathering season will demon
strate that a trade needing eleven
million bales of American cotton,
will have to do the best it can on a
supply not exceeding nine and one
half to three-quarters. Notwlth-
standing this, we believe a grower
is foolish to refuse present prices,
or to, In the least degree, hold
back cotton. To accept the advice
so freely extended, and follow
such a course, we believe would be
unwise in the extreme, while to
permit the trade to receive the I'M
preston that this Is beng done
could affect prices in only one d.
rection. 1t is of course idle to
make suggestions on such sub
ject, for each man will pursue the
course best suited to his needs
or ideas, but to our mind the SEN
sible way in which to market cot
ton, any year, regardless of price,
is to put it on the market easily
and naturally, without an effort
either to hold it back or rush it.
The man who does this, and then
sells 1t as ne gets it in, Is bound
TO get the average price OF the
season, and that is better than
holding for a possible rise, and
taking all the chances on decline.
What are all these oil mills 60
ing to do for seed this season!
With four mills in Greenville,
and four or five within reaching
distance, up and down the Valley
road, and about the same number
on the Southern, right in the
midst of bona fde short crop,
even if cotton is all going to seed,
it looks right and proper that we
should be able to get some little
excitement injected into the stu
alton. Of course we all know that
the price of products doesn't justify
even the price mills are paying, at
this writing, for raw seed. 1t
never does.
But what are oil mills erected
for, if not to contribute to the
general gaiety Of planters ex-
istence!
There is no excuse for either a
Gigantic trust, capitalized at mil
lions, and grinding the face of the
poor" ct cetera, to keep on grind
ing,-and no reason why an SIN
dependent concern, operated sole
ly for the benefit of the farmer"
ct cetera, should not put up the
coin, both regardless of the
"prlce of product" just for once.
This season we want to see
each one look pleasant and come
across.

The
Chewing Gum
Habit.

The LII Lne Popular
Chewing Gum Science Monthly
l--1--. = forSeptember, DR..
Il. E. g. Stevens comments on the
chewing gum habit. He digs up an
extract from a translation of Co
lumbus' letter on the discovery
of America, written March IA,
1893, = wherein the discoverer
enumerates the articles which he
could bring from the new lands, if
assisted in prosecuting his voy-
ages. He mentions las much Of
spices, of cotton, of chewing gum
(Which is only found IN Chios), "
etc.
The Chios referred to was an
island in the Grecian Archipelago,
and the reference would Indicate
that it had had, up to that time,
and perhaps for some thousands of
years anterior, monopoly of the
business Of furnishing the then
known world with this delectable
article of commerce.
" ho knows but that there then
flourlshed a gigantic gum trust!
The habit must have spread to and
become popular in all the court
circles of the world, and possibly
the Queen of Sheba, and CIeopa-
ira later on, were among its de-
voices.
The American girl is at least
guiltless Of any innovation, in her
indulgence along this line.

Under the title Catholics and
American Citizenship" in the
September North American Re
view, the 1T. Rev. James A. Nc
Faul, Bishop of Trenton, discuss
es the vexed questions touching
the education of Catholic children
in the public schools. Taking the
ground that the requiring of at
tendance by such children upon
schools in which no religious in
structlon is given, or where the re-
llgious instruction is contrary to
the Catholic faith, is in contraven-
ton of the constitutional guaran-
tvs of religious freedom, he pre-
sents a very fair argument In sup
port of his contention. The Bish-
op thinks that the Catholic church
is officially Disseminated against
in many ways, claiming that with
a population of over ten or twelve
million Catholics and eighteen or
twenty million Protestants, he fluids
but three chaplains in the navy
and four in the army of the Catho-
lie faith. He again denies that
he adv coated, either In his Boston
letter or Trenton address, the for
nation of a Catholic political
party,-as was asserted at the time.
