All Grades Advanced Nearly
One Cent Yesterday.
Many People Are Predicting That It VIII Reach
II Cents. Crop Reports in the South
Are Very Bad.

On last Friday morning the News
adm Observer predicted that cotton
would soon reach 10 cents.
The prediction has come true
Yesterday cotton sold in Raleigh for
10 cents, in fact the best grade of the
staple brought 10 is cents.
The prospects are that it will go
higher yet. There are not a few who
say it will not stop short of IL of 1914
cents.
The principal influences operating
on yesterdays market were the floods
in Texas, the discovery that the crop
is shorter all over the South than
generally supposed, and the small
supply on hand in the mills.
The only bear feature of the market
was the announcement that at NEE :
ing of the cotton spinners, of Man
chaster, it was England decided prac-
tically unanimously not to purchase
American spot cotton during the
month of September. Four-fifths of
the employers in the trade were repre-
scented at the meeting and it is antici-
pated that the decision will lead to
the closure of scores of mills for sew
eral weeks. The meeting adjourned
until September 81. when the situation
will be again considered.

freedom The flag of the Republic now
floats over these islands as an emblem of
rightful sovereignty. Will the Republic
stay and dispense to their inhabitants the
blessings of liberty, education and free
institutions, or steal away, leaving them
to anarchy or Imperialism?
QUESTION OF DUTY OR DISCRETION.
The American question is between duty
and desertion-the American verdict will
be for duty and against desertion, for the
Republic against both anarchy and i'm
perialism.
The country has been fully advised of
the purposes of the United States in
China, and they will be faithfully ad-
hered to as already defined.
The nation is filled with gratitude that
the little band, among them many of our
own blood, who for two months have been
subjected to privations and peril by the
attacks Of pitiless hordes at the Chinese
capital, exhibiting supreme courage in the
f,~ee of despair, have been enabled by
Gods favor to greet their rescuers and
find shelter under their own flag.
The people not alone of this land, but
of all lands have watched and prayed
through the terrible stress and pro-
tracted agony of the helpless sufferers in
Pekin and while at times the dark It'd
ings seemed to make all hope vain, the
rescuers never faltered in the heroic ful-
fillment of their noble task.
We are grateful to our own soldiers and
sailors and marines, and to all the brave
men who though assembled under many
standards representing peoples and races,
strangers in country and speech, were yet
united in the sacred mission of carrying
succor to the besieged, with success
that is now the cause of worlds re-
ioicing
Not only have we reason for thanks
giving for our material blessings, but we
should rejoice in the complete unifcation
of the people of all sections of our coun-
| try, that has so happily developed in the
last few years and made for us more
! perfect union.
The obliteration of all differences.
| the common devotion to the flag and the
common sacrifices for its honor so con-
spicuously shown by the men OF the
/ North and South in the Spanish war,
have so strengthened the ties of friend
shin and mutual respect that nothing can
ever again divide US sThe nation faces
the new century gratefully and hopefully,
with increasing love of country, with trm
| faith in its free institutions, and with
high resolve that they shall not perish
from the earth. ~.
Very respectfully yours,

status of the inhabitants of the archi-
pelago.
Are our opponents against the treaty?
If so. they must be reminded that it
could not have been ratified in the Sen
ate but for their assistance. The SEN
ate which ratified the treaty and the Con-
gress which added its sanction by
large appropriation, comprised Senators
and Representatives of the people of all
parties. .s...
Would our opponents surrender to the
Insurgents abandon our sovereignty or
cede it to them? If that be not their
purpose then it should be promptly dis
claimed. for only evil can result from
the hopes raised by our opponents in the
minds OF the Filpinos, that with their
success at the polls in November there
will be a withdrawal of our army and
of American sovereignty over the arch
ipelago; the complete independence OF
the Tagalog people recognized and the
mowers of government over all the other
peoples of the archipelago conferred
upon the Tagalog leaders.
The effect of a belief in the minds of
tho insurgents that this will be done
has already prolonged the rebellion and
increases the necessity for the continu-
ance of a large army. 1t is now de-
LAYING full peace in the archipelago and
the establishment of civil governments
and has influenced many of the insur-
gents against accepting the liberal terms
of amnesty offered by General Macarthur
under my direction. But for these false
hopes. a considerable reduction could
have been had in military establishment
in the Philippines, and the realization OF
a stable government would be already
at hand.

At the meeting of the national COM
mittee of the gold democrats at Indian
apolis last week, Mr.. W. D. Haldeman,
proprietor of the Louisville Courier
Journal, opposed the nomination of a
ticket this year, and announced his de-
termination to support Bryan.
In the course of his speech he said:
Gin 1896 l took upon myself abundant
abuse from Kentucky democrats, and l
did it because believed, with my friend
Henri Watterson, in the righteousness
of refusal to compromise with dishonor
on the question OF sound and stable
currency.
II believed then that the nations
honor in the stability of it's money was
involved, and if l believed that, in this
respect, there was any danger now, l
would stand this day against the regular
democratic organization. No sane man
believes this danger exists. The free and
unlimited coinage OF silver and gold at
the ratio of 16 to |, without the consent
of any other nation, has been relegated
to another generation by this nation. 1t
is past measure. My heart goes out to
those who struggle for liberty in every
nation and l applaud and approve the
expression in the democratic platform
sympathizing with the Boers-a people
who may be robbed Of free citizenship in
order to help English greed to gather to
it's Golfers the diamonds and gold OF South
Africa. Only in the interest OF her own
selfish purposes does England desire the
amitv of the United States Of America.
This republican administration seems to
love England more than it loves its own
countrywide great republic-which to-
day is first in power, honor and place
amongst the nations of the world. We
cannot, we must not encourage weak
and corrupt administration to barter free
institutions and civil liberty in combi-
nation with the most autocratic, arrogant
and selfish power in all Europe. lam
compelled, with a sense OF what is due
to free America, that love, to earnestly
actively support an American who be-
lieve loves his country and whom !
believe the highest and best type of the
American citizen, and thus believing,
shall vote for and support William Jen.

Ninety-eight Per Cent.

There is fascination about big profits
to business man. But the conservative
and cautious trader prefers to have the
lesser per cent of interest and the larger
per cent OF safety in his investments.
There is no business man who would not
consider it sound proposition to invest
in an enterprise in which absolute loss
was impossible and which offered ninety
eight chances in hundred of a rich
profit. The statistics OF cures effected by
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
show that ninety-cight per cent OF cases
of "weak lungs" can be absolutely cured.
Almost if not all forms OF physical weak
ness may be traced to starvation. Star
walton saps the strength. The body is
lust as much starved when the stomach
cannot extract nutrition from the food it
receives as when there is no food. "Weak
lungs" bronchial affections, obstinate
coughs, call for nourishmcnt. Golden
Medical Discovery" supplies that nour-
ishment in it's most condensed and as
similable form. 1t makes "weak lungs
strong, by strengthening the stomach
and organs of digestion which digest and
distribute the food, and by increasing
the supply OF pure blood.
