COTTON CROP IN, TEXAS.

so far as the cotton crop is concerned
where Texas sits is the head of the
table 1t produced last year 81 per cent
of the entire yield, or 3,S0S, sos Of the
total crop of 10,3S3,422 bales. In 1899
1900 Texas produced 2,590,112 bales for
which it's farmers received sos, S64 ,237. an
average of 1855 per bale. In 1900 1901
Texas produced 3,S0S,56S bales for which
it's farmers received 1881, 4O1, 593, an
average of $47.63 per bale. The increased
money that went into the pockets of the
farmers of Texas was $91, 1856, nearly
twice as much as the previous year.
Part of that increase Texas owes to
the demand for cotton created by cot
ton mills in the South, mainly in North
and South Carolina.
The outlook for this year as to price,
il we may judge by present prices, is
that Texas will not get near so much
per pound for it's crop as last year, and
the crop is short, too, though the Georgia
farmers are organizing with view to
holding their cotton for ten cents a
round.

Nd ANARCHISTS HERE.

There are no anarchists in North Caro-
lima" telegraphed Governor Aycock to a
Northern paper. They do not grow in our
soil. We have men who sometimes COM
nit crime, but that is chiefly when they
are under the influence of mean liquor, aid
there are those among us who need the
rigorous punishments prescribed in the
criminal CODE But we produce no anar-
chists who use the stiletto and hold meet
ings plotting the downfall of the Repub-
lie. Our civilization has its vices, but
they are open and above board and men
guilty of them do not declare them to
be virtues.
While there is no anarchistic fungus
growth in this State, the people of North
Carolina are interested in common with
the people of all the States in uprootlng
anarchy wherever 1t is found, and its
people are ready to do whatever can
be done to put an end to harboring in
this Republic these enemies of liberty
regulated by law.

END IS NOT NEAR.

Gen. A. S. Burt, pleasantly remembered
by the North Carolina volunteers of the
Spanish-A1nerican war, who served under
him in Jacksonville, has just returned
from the Philippines. He says he does
not expect to live to see the end of the
war in the islands; not that he contem-
plates early death, since he is hale and
hearty but he says it is destined to be
long war. There are thousands of
Filipinos. he says, who would prefer the
life of bandits and guerillas to life of
industry and labor. Many of them have
gone into the mountains, where they will
remain, emerging only to pillage and
plumber.
The crime of forcible annexation must
be paid for by this government. 1t has
already cost our best blood and millions
of money and the end is far off.

ANARCHISTS AND TRAITORS.

The best thought of the ablest states
men of America should be directed to-
ward securing such legislation as will
make anarchists punishable just as mel
guilty of treason are punishable. We
should not wait until the anarchist has
fired the bullet, but he should be ar
rested when conspiring and melting to
deeds of violence. Every anarchist
meeting is a conspiracy against the es-
tablished government and should be
dealt with just as conspiracies plotting
treason are dealt with. 1t will not be an
easy matter to draft laws to this end,
but there ought to be wisdom enough to
devise such legislation, State and ma
tional.
Anarchists and traitors are equally
dangerous and ought to be summarily
dealt with

Once more the voice of Doubt assails

Once more we press our faces in the dust,
But in our hearts, thank God, there still
is trust.
Freedom, though they strike thee down,
thy head
Shall still be raised, and still thy voice
shall guide!
And thou shalt even grasp and crush the
smeared hand whose ugly stain is on
thy side.
Though. sobs. are heard where yester-

HEGATIvINe ITS OWN WORK.

The Manufacturers Record has done
much for the South by its favorable men
tion of ali Southern enterprises, and by
its clear and strong presentation OF the
South's advantages, but it has at the saline
time undone part of its own good work
about Southern legislation. 1t has let
its readers believe that capital is heavily
taxed by Southern Legislatures and dis
eliminated against, whereas the truth is
that great enterprises are taxed less
upon their capital than in any other sec
tion of the Union, and there is no ground
for propagating the idea that Southern
laws or Southern courts are unjust to cap
ital.
We wish the Record would quit convey
ing this wrong impression. for it is there
as much as it advances Southern progress,
by it's continued criticism of Southern leg
islation, based upon isolated and non
: representative utterances. We say this in
Kindness because we hate to see paper
that does SO much good negativing much
of it's own work by this mistaken policy.
1t has given too much space to trying to
convert the South to Republican policies
to be fair to the local State administra-
tons in the Southern States, and has
given some Northern capitalists totally
pf ha fIat IN III 10
some of them believe that large invest
ments and great corporations do not en-
JOY full protection and justice in every
Southern state.
The truth about the South is that it
has given Indirectly such advantage ito
new enterprises as in many instances to
amount to bonus. The railroads for
twenty years were not taxed on more
than twenty-five per cent of their value
and today the tax assessment is not half
of the cash value. The same is true of
the timber manufacturing and other in
terests in their early yeaEs of struggle,
and even when they earn large dividends
the assessment is not high. The South
is the most conservative section of tie
Union. Now that great establishments
are prosperous is there any reason why
they should not be taxed at fair val
uations More than that no Southern
State has attempted and yet whenever
there IS contest growing out of an at
tempt upon the part OF great corporations
to escape just taxation, the Manufactur-
ers Record lends color to the unfair
statements by jumping into the Legs
latures. 1t would serve the South and
the country better by examining the mat
ter fully, and giving the point of view OF
the men it crticizes.
The Charleston News and Courier, one
of the ablest and most conservatively
progressive dailies in the South, has writ
ten an editorial along this line so true
and just that we print it elsewhere in
today's paper.
