\ grocer's boy entered the doctors

Henry Georges First FrIena.

In the late seventies Henry George,
the single tax reformer, came east
from California He was desperately
poor and had but few acquaintance.
Shortly after his arrival he lectured
before the Saturday Ethical club of
New York. where his brilliant oratory
and shabby attire made so striking a
contrast as to excite the sympathy of
those present.
After he left the club appointed a
committee to aid him in getting up a
public lecture. Among others, the com
mttee included Seth Low, who was
then engaged in business. He was in
consultation ut the time, and the COM
mttee were in hurry, so he told them
to send him lot of tickets. They for
warded 20 to him the same day and
felt happy at having secured $50 for
the lecture fund. The next morning
came a letter of thanks from Mr.. Low
praising the lecturers intellectually
and incloshIg a check for $3.50. The
affair was a success, netting about
$500, so that President Low may be
said to have been the first man to start
Mr. George on his eastern career.
Twenty years later, in 1897, Mr.. Low
was the citizens candidate and Mr.,
George the labor candidate for mayor
of New York. The latter made Wig
orous campaign and in all his speeches
advised the citizens, if they could not
vote for him, to vote for his friend
Seth Low. and on one occasion he said
that if it had not been for the latter

nEw TO THE n

The Constitution is the supreme law
of the land. Its enforcement at all
times, and under all circumstances,
should be demanded by II brave and de-
voted press. The following from the

THE SITUATION IN COTTON.

The SENTINEL has been criticised in
a few quarters for its mildly and con-
servatively given advice to co ton pro-
ducers to hold their cotton for awhile
in the face OF the decline OF the past
two weeks. Along this line the New
Orleans Picayune OF Oct. 9th in a
strong editorial expresses the same
views the SENTINEL has entertained.
The explanation OF the decline Is not
difficult to find. The very heavy move-
ment of the crop into sight, stimulated
by the high price, has been the infu-
ence which has forced prices down, and
it Twill be impossible to check the de-
| cline as long as cotton is rushed TO
market. The Picayune says that there
is admittedly a very short crop and
that there is a great shortage at the
mills all over the world which will
have to be filled from the American
crop. Therefore, there appears to be
good reason to expect higher prices
eventually this season, but neither sta
tistical strength nor unfavorable crop
news, nor any other influence can over
come the immediate and present effect
of heavy deliveries OF the crop. The
Picayune says:
1.-THE producers and country mer-
chants are in a position TO know the
true facts as to the yield. They are
also understood TO be financially in a
/, more Independent position than eve
/, before known. They consequently car
hold back cotton If they so desire, and
thus relieve the market OF the existing
pressure OF heavy deliveries and offer,
ings.
st would be well for our countr,
friends TO consider all these facts ant
attribute the present course Of price
to its true cause. They themselves hav'
0 the remedy in their own hands, name
!, ly, to market their cotton more DELHI
erately and not to rush 1t all To marke
at once, as seems to have been the pol
icy lately. High prices cannot be maiu
o tanned with extremely heavy receipts.
The same paper on Thursday says (;
However this may be, it would Gel
tainly seem as " the price of cotton ha
