The United States furnishes nearly
nine-tenths Of the worlds supply OF
cotton: the East Indies, Egypt and
smaller countries the other tenth. We
can hardly maintain this ascendency
with the efforts making to take away
the business. Japan. for example. Is
manufacturing cotton cloth, and takes
largely of our supply. Now she has
cut her demand in two because by
using cheap Indian cotton and mixing
It with the American article she can
place her goods on the market at less
price than IL wholly made of our ma
terial. Another competitor will ma
terialize In q few years. With the
damming of the Nile and the estab-
lishment Of tho irrigating canals which
are a part Of the enterprise, a vast
tract of Egypt will be opened up for
the cultivation of the cotton plant.
An area equal to four large American
states will be reclaimed and much of
1t Will be devoted to cotton raising.
European and Asiatic manufacturers
expect to get the material much
cheaper, because Egyptian labor is
paid so little In comparison with
American.

ARKANSAS RACE'rRoUBLEs.
Serious Outbreak is Threatened In
Nevada County.


Little Rock. "A special to the Dem
oorat from Camden says; Junius
Blake, a prominent farmer in Leake
township, Glenville postoffioe, Neva-
da county, brings the news to this
CITY of double killing at that place
Monday might. The particulars are
party Of white men of that neigh
borhood sent word to negro resident
by the name of Lige Siegler that
they would be cut to whip him that
night, and received word back that
some of them would get killed il they
came. The party went out and the
report is that Siegler and his son shot
into the party, killing Lewis Haynie,
brother of State Senator Haynie, and
Hop Halton, BROTHER Of John Hal
ton, a prominent merchant at Ste
phens, member Of the firm of Halton
and Lester. There are some 400 ne
groes and 30 white people in the town
ship, and racial troubles have been
brewing for some time, in fact some
of the obstreperous blacks had already
been whipped before this clash. AT
last reports parties Of white people
had left for the scene of trouble from
Waldo and Stephens and the Negroes
house was still surrounded. A seri-
Gus conflict seems imminent, but it is
hoped that cool heads will prevent
bloodshed.

SENATOR. CALLS AUDIENCE.
Contained No One of Lessor Rank than
the vice President.

There are two ways Of locking at
anything, and the way wit OF Wash
lngton explained a certain lack of au-
dience In the senate, when southern
senator made speech, was certainly
the most delightful way of defining a
somewhat chilling Incident.
1t has passed into history that Hon.
Wilkinson Call of Florida, though for
three terms a United States senator
and highly honored by his state, did
not make q great impression on the
senate as speaker. and that he thus
disappointed all those who have the
tradition in their minds that all south
efn statesmen are orators. Senator
Call, It is said. once arose to make a
speech when the senate chamber was
rather empty. As he spoke the few
members of the senate who were there
fled out to get luncheon. No one re-
manned on the floor to listen to the
speech. but the president Of the senate
still sat in his place, digni6ed and
calm. The galleries were also empty.
and the incident became the subject Of
Washington gossip. At dinner party
where a southern politician was a
guest 1t was asked what he thought Of
the southern senator's audience when
he made his speech in the senate this
morning. Then came clever answer.
for the southern man said, with q
grave face: Il thought 1t q very dis
tinguished audience. There was no
person there OF less rank than the vice
president Of the United States"

PATRIOTISM RAN WILD
AS the New Maine Glided Down the
Ways.

Philadelphia, Pa.-The battleship
Maine, designed to be bigger, stronger
and faster than her namesake, whose

One Of the largest crowds that has
ever seen warship leave the ways

patriotism ran wild as the ship left

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER
Regular Weekly Correspondence From the Nations Capital
City.

New York City, at the Raleigh. az
perused with interest the official pub
locations Of the department, and I
cannot see that Admiral Schley was to
blame in the least It struck me,
however, that whenever conversed
with civilians on this subject they
have been of my views, but whenever
l talked on the matter with naval
officers they have, without single
exception, supported Admiral Samp-
son. Early in the controversy erect
cd for myself a proposition which I
think is fair one to guide disin-
terested man. Suppose that Oervera S
fleet had escaped, who would have
been blamed by the navy department,
the country and the world? Who
would have been courtmartialed and
disgraced? It would have been Ad-
miral Schley. 1t would not have been
Admiral Sampson, who was miles
away when the engagement was be-
gun. If there is any honor. and heav-
en- knows that it was the greatest
battle Of the seas of all modern times,
and the only engagement between
steel warships since they have been
invented, the honor is Admiral
Schley's. 1t really does not matter
what ia the decision of the board of
inquiry which Admiral Schley has
asked for. The American people
know the whole affair from the time
that Cervera left the Curacao until
his last ship plunged for the Cuban
coast to save itself from sinking
under the guns of the gallant Brook
Ign and Oregon. They will see that
history gives the honor where honor
is DUE"
