by checks furnished by that railroad, de-
MES that it gets $4OO week from the
Southern. Nobody said it was S4OO week

for current expenses, but it has cost the

SPIRIT OF The PRESS.
SHOULD BE NO OBJECTION.

SHOULD BE NO OBJECTION.
Greensboro Telegram.
The Telegram recognizes in the cotton
mills of North Carolina blessing in the
past and a large section of hope for the
future prosperity of the State. At the
same time it recognizes the fact that cot
ton mills are not built for philanthroplc
purposes, but for the profit for those who
build them. This is right, and does not
lessen the value of the incidental good
they do. We believe that the majority OF
the mill owners want to do the right
thing. All of them would be more than
mortal if there were not some few, at
least. among them who did not want to
do the right thing. Therefore, there
should be no objection to framing into
law the voluntary agreement of the mill
owners. Why they object TO this, we
cannot see.

Another Child Cured.
Ahoskie, N. c., Jan. Il, 1901.

Mrs Joe Person.
Allow me to express my gratitude to
you for the wonderful cure your Remedy
made on my little baby girl. Some eight
months ago she was afflicted with some
blood impurity, which resulted i'll raw
sores and scabs on her face and feet,
which troubled her severely for II months,
more or less. After trying different
remedies and four physicians without any
permanent relief, by chance I saw one of
your papers and read some of your testi-
monials l decided to try your Remedy.
After using it a short while, she began
to improve. When she had taken two
bottles of it the sores we're entirely heal
ed, and now she seems to be entirely well.
consider your Remedy one of the very
best blood purifiers on the market; also
one of the best medicines for teething
children. Yours very truly,
MRS. A. G. BAZEM0RE.

TRADE Report.

Bradstreet's report for last week is
az follows:
rather cheerful tone was apparent
in general trade and the close of the
first quarter of the year finds the bust
mes world contemplating a total trade
for that period in many cases in excess
OF all preceding periods, while the flu
ture, with some exceptions, is viewed
with apparent confidence. The adj
vance of the spring season is, of course.
partly responsible for the feeling above
mentioned, allowing, as it does, better
opportunity for wider range Of opera
lions than was possible in the winter
months. First indications as to crop
prospects and the outlook are in the
main favorable. Bank clearings are
showing steady gains over unprecedent-
eddy large totals year ago. Railway
earnings testify to an immense volume
OF merchandise passing into consump-
ton and as for some time past the
active demand at advancing prices for
iron and steel is regarded as reliable
index of good general trade to come.
building is becoming more active
and promises this spring to be the hea-
West for many years past. Hence, the
lumber trades and all lines of builders
hardware note continued or growing
activity. The demand in the latter line
and in agricultural implements at the
west is, in fact, most notable.
AS pointed out a week ago, there has
been an apparent turn in the tide in the
wool trade, even while some quotations
are technically lower A good volume
of business has been done at the lead
ing eastern markets and values as
whole are quit firm. Boston sales this
week are estimated to amount to near
ly 100000 pounds, bought by two
large mills, and the stocks of Montana
wool have been well cleared up.
The boot and shoe trade is in good
condition.
There was little more doing in ce-
reals last week, corn being especially
active, and in the hands of bull clique
advanced to above so cents. Wheat has
been in better export demand and
strengthened slightly in sympathy
with the coarser grain.
Iron and steel have made steady pro-
gress alike in the volume of sales and
in the matter Of prices. The long ex-
pected advance in structural matter
came last week with gain of So and
81 in beams, channels and similar pro-
ducts.
Wheat (including four) shipments
for the week aggregate 4,494,635 bush
els. From July 1 to date this season
wheat exports are Isl, 122,735 bushels.
Failures for the week numbered 1879.
Canadian failures for the week number
