GRAFTON of the farmers the price can
be advanced 10 cents on the bushel,
it will give to the cotton farmers of
the State 500, 900 more for the crop
than they otherwise would get, but
concert of action will be necessary
to obtain the desired results. It is
to be hoped that the farmers in all
the ootton-growing States will take
similar action. To that end this let
ter will be sent to every Southern
State, that success may be assured.
We deem this of enough import
moe to suggest that the farmers
meet in their respective counties at
the court house on Saturday, Sep
tember 81, and select delegates to
attend a State meeting to be held in
the city of Raleigh, Wednesday, Sep
TENDER %. If it is deemed advisable
township meetings can be held ear
lier than September 81; each town
ship or neighborhood can determine
this for themselves.
The short crop and the high prices
consequent thereon have made this a
golden opportunity for the cotton
farmers, and it is for them to say
whether they will take advantage of
it or leave all the profits arising from
these conditions to the cotton seed
oil mills. You may rest assured
that they will not turn them down.
In Justice to your own interests you
should step forward and offer to
share these profits with the mill
men.
This letter is addressed to every
cotton farmer and ginner in the
State, from the least to the largest.
Let them all co operate. Let no
reasonable excuse keep you away
from the meetings.

SHOULD HAVE BETTER PRICES FOE
COTTON SEED.

In accordance with a resolution at
the recent meeting of the State
Farmers Alliance authorizing the
appointment of a committee to issue
an address to the cotton farmers,
ginners, and others interested in
procuring better prices for cotton
iced, this committee met Tuesday in
the city of Raleigh and authorized
the folio wing letter:
HILLsBORO, n. c., Aug. 81, 1901.
To the Cotton Farmers and Ginners
of North Carolina:
GENTLEMEN This letter is issued
for the purpose of awakening in you
an interest in and appreciation of
the value of the cotton seed crop
this coming season.
AS is we'll known, the corn crop in
the corn growing States is short in
fact, it is short in most sections of
the United States. We all know
that IA short crop means higher
priced corn, which in turn means
higher priced hogs, cattle, etc and
for their products. AS these products
advance in price, substitutes, such
a. compound lard, oleomargarine,
butterine, etc., largely take their
places. These substitutes contain
cotton seed oil, hence the demand
for that will probably be greater
than ever before, consequently higher
prices. The cattle feeders of the
West will have to substitute some
other feed for corn, and as cotton
seed meal has proven to be better
than corn for this purpose, it is but
natural that they will largely substi-
tute cotton seed meal for COR the
coming feeding season. In conse
quence of these demands cotton seed
meal and oil will both bring higher
prices than heretofore. This being
true, cotton seed also should bring
higher prices than they have been
selling for.
Within the past few months a syn
dictate has been taking options on oil
mills, and now, it is reported, they
own more than so per cent. of the
mills in the South, or it's equalent in
output. The, American Cotton Oil
Company, it is claimed, owns forty
per cent, so there are less than 10
per cent in output, according to
this calculation, that are independ-
ent mills.
From recent occurrences it is prob
able that these two oil companies,
controlling over 90 per cent. of the
cotton seed oil products of the South,
may combine or have an understand
ing as to the prices to be paid for
cotton seed. The situation is such
that, in our opinion, the farmers
should take some action to protect
themselves and have some voice in
naming the price their own products
will sell for. This can best be done
by cooperation in selling, which can
be accomplished. The cotton seed
of North Carolina will probably
be at a low estimate, 10, 1000, 900 bush
els. OF this crop 1000, 900 bushels
will probably be sold. If by COOP

the desires of the people, their local
aspirations and n necessities, and give
the Filipinos an example Of Ameri-
can institutions and the customs
and laws prevailing in the United
States. The happiness of the people
will result from practical govern
ment and not from theories on the
part of many Filipino gentlemen,
who appear to desire to multiply the
difficulties of the government by
creating new parties to embody DO
htical theories when they might
o profitably advance their coun.
try's welfare by devoting their time
and talents TO amending and improv-
ing the laws of the legally consti-
tuted body. There will be time
enough for theories when the gov
eminent is running smoothly.
Yesterday was the anniversary of
the beginning OF legislative work.
The commission will have worked
hard and much will have been &C
complished if they feel they have
advanced with the same progression
a year hence and will be assured of
the success of their efforts. DIR. De
Tavera said that hardly had the peo-
pie begun TO appreciate the work of
pacifcation than they were accorded
the institutions of peace. The enemy
of the evening before began the next
morning to aid their ~adversaries in
building roads and houses and intro
duoing arts of peace. The day was
not far distant when the Filipinos
would enter a legislative body for the
islands elected by the people. Con
ditions prevent the elections at pres
emit. The Filipinos consider yesterday
as solemn and grand because it
is the first time they have been given
part in the supreme government.
They believe the day is coming when
the American constitution as a
whole, without amputation, would
be planted here, as the flag now is.

Answer to Voter.

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-I noticed communication in
yesterdays News signed Voter" and
the trend of his remarks indicates that
he was bent on discouraging women
from using their public influence to
secure the election of officials who will
enforce the laws. Now, much that
Voter" said about women's home
duties is true and ought to do good,
but the day is past when woman's
sphere is confined to her own home,
just as the day has passed which pro-
hibited women from entering college,
and which forbade her taking part in
a prayer meeting. If there ever was a
time when the women of Wheeling
ought to make their power felt it is
between now and January Oath, 1901.
This is a campaign for the protection
of the home" Certain politicians who
are asking for reelection would be
very glad to discourage women from
publicly protesting against their re-
erection.
And all that "Voter" has said does
not excuse the officials of this city in
the least for their delinquency in en-
forcing the laws. Mothers keep on
writing. 60 on with your public pro-
test against the reelection of officials
who do not do what they are elected
to do. ANOTHER VOTER.

outrage l thought the days of the

be tolerated, even encouraged by the

get on the outskirts of the town. and
allow the gang to assemble. Then long
pieces of rubber hose were secured, and

to be a black man. was turned loose

The street Cars.

Sir:-The travelling public has for a
long time past been subjected to the
inconvenience of irregular running OF
the cars over the Wheeling street car
line and have frequently complained in
the hope of securing a better service,
but all to no avail. 1t is indeed sur
prising that the road has not manifest
ed some appreciation for the liberal
patronage it receives by increasing the
number of cars in operation. Their
profits would not only be proportion
ately larger, but the puolic would be
afforded a more convenient system or
traffic Between five and six o'clock in
the evening, when the employees OF the
workshops and mills are either return
ing to their homes or on their way to
report for night turns, is a time that
requires many more than the usual
number of cars that is not now run out
In nearly every instance the cars are
so crowded that the passengers are
obliged to ride in very uncomfortable
positions. TRAVELLER.

TRIED THREE TIMES


To Fit Coffee to "a Sensitive Body.
There are great numbers of highly
organized people upon whom coffee
acts as clearly defined poison. In
some extreme cases the poisonous eff
fects will show in from three to five
minutes, in other cases a long time is
required, and in some cases the body
can stand the effects for years, but the
effects are very sure, and many times
result in fixed condition of organic
disease that is difficult or impossible to
be rid of.

Wants to Know.

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-Will you permit a man who is
not dyspeptic to enquire what is the
matter with some of the local restau-
rants?' The other evening | went into
what is reputed to be an eating house
of the first class, and ordered an oys-
ter stew. Notice that | didn't order
anything else. The waiter brought me
a stew in the course of time, and it was
composed of six oysters, about 2X3
inches in size, with a teaspoon to eat
them with. There was not even a
napkin. After serving this delectable
repast the waiter wanted to know
whether l wanted coffee, tea or milk"
AS l had not ordered any of those
things | naturally didn't want them.
l ordered what l wanted-and didn't
get it in proper shape, for j received
oysters built to fry. The waiter stood
around for a while evidently trying to
think of something else to sell, and
failing brought me a glass of water,
which l should have thrown at him.
If the average restaurant proprietor
would see that his walters serve a pat
ron's orders in some sort of proper
form-and stop right there, without
suggestions, a long-suffering public
would be greatly obliged.
