HOW 1T WORKS.

IT want to pay you for that adver-
tisement Of pigs for sale, inserted a
few weeks ago." said Hon. w. B. Love,
of McConnellsville, to the reporter last
Saturday.
"That was inserted under our gra-
tuitous offer, believe" the reporter
replied.
Yes; but I sold all my pigs right
away, because Of the advertisement,
and I am willing to pay the regular
price whatever it is," said Mr.. Love.
Would be glad enough to charge
you," the reporter said; "but under
the circumstances cannot take the
money. 1t may be all right to you, but
it would not be fair to u.s."
"Well, then" Mr.. Love continued,
"be assured Of my appreciation. I got
two letters about those pigs even be-
fore I got my paper. The paper had
been temporarily held up by a friend
on it's way to me and the letters came
on through. I. sold all the pigs had in
g. short Wholesome in Yorkville and
some about home. I am satisfied that
if a man has anything to sell that any
body wants, he can do no better than
to advertise the fact"
Mr.. Love had only eight pigs that
he cared to dispose Of, and he got SIG
for them. He calculates that they net
ted him a profit of about $14.

what we are coming to as fast as we
can.-News and Courier.
While we see no cause for alarm, "
we see sense in what the New York
Commercial has to say. The keenest
abilities of the entire world are enlist
ed in the competition for the cotton
trade, and while there Is no question Of
the fact that the American cotton pro-
ducers and manufacturers are now In
the lead, it will be unwise for us to as
sumo that all foreigners are dullards.
Even If they be not as able and ener-
getic as we are in the matter Of initia-
tive, they have the ability to follow
after us and divide the harvest that
may be created by our efforts. AS
their competition becomes keener, we
will have to put forth greater abilities.
We can certainly not afford to sleep
over the matter. And while what The
News and Courier says with reference
to our progress in spinning our own
cotton Is true, we must not forget that
it is necessary to look after the welfare
of the mills as it Is to look after the well
fare Of the cotton producer. Unless the
manufacturer can find place to sell
his products, he cannot keep up his de-
mand for raw material. 1t would seem
then that it would be wise to develop
the markets of the manufacturer to the
utmost, and the market for the produc-
er Of the raw material will develop it
self in proportion.

&E GRADED SCHOOL.

Almost every family in town was
represented at the public exercises Of
the Yorkville graded school in the
court house last Friday night. Every
available seat was taken, and the au-
dience that filled the auditorium was
one Of the most kindly and apprecia-
tive that has ever gathered there on
any previous occasion for quite awhile.
The class day exercises of the gradu-
ting class was the special attraction.
Six bright young misses who had
started in the school at the lowest
grade, and who had worked their way
up through successive stages until they
had covered the entire course Of study
offered by the institution, were now
candidates for diplomas. 1t was in
order to hear what these young misses
had to say for themselves and to wit
ness the delivery Of the well-earned
diplomas that the audience gave Its
attendance.
There had been no regularly an
nounced programme. 1t was under
stood that the members Of the gradua-
ting class were to conduct the exercises
of the evening, so far as they were
concerned themselves, and after the
audience had been assembled, Super

here on Wednesday are practically
completed. His speech will be deliver
ed in the Grand Opera house, about l
p. m. There will be a larger attend
ance than was originally anticipated.
The railroads have made special ex-
cursion rates, and large delegations
will be here from the towns along the
Southern and G. and w. c. roads. A
number Of Democratic clubs have CIV
en- notice that they will be here. In
conversation with a number Of farm
ers I find there is a decided desire on
the part of the planters to know what
McLaurin's platform is, what new doc
trine, if any, he teaches. They want
him to tell them publicly where ne
stands, whether he has turned his back
on Democratic principles, and Is slid
ing into the Republican party, or try
ing to pull the party out of the Popu-
listic hole. There will be a large at
tendance of farmers from this and ad-
joining counties, and they Will come
with their thinking caps on. 1t Is un-
derstood here that the GreenV1lle
speech Of McLaurin will outline his
policy, and contain all the important
planks of his campaign platform. The
speech will probably be the most elab-
crate and carefully prepared which he
will deliver in this state, and for this
reason will attract more attention. A
reception will be rendered the senator
on Tuesday night. On Wednesday, af-
ter speaking, he will be shown the i'm
provements and mills about the city.

THE COTTON MARKET.

The cotton market, says James Rior-
dan in a letter sent out from New York
last Saturday night, is again extreme
ly dull. The idea that present prices
are fair, considering the situation as 1T
now stands, and that the markets fu-
ture course will depend almost entire
ly upon the crop news forthcoming, has
become sufficiently general to render
operators decidedly cautious and In
disposed to be aggressive on either
side. AS a result fluctuations have
been narrow and the volume Of trans
actions small.
The developments Of the week have
been rather bearish in that the drought
which has prevailed over much OF the
cotton belt has been largely broken
and only few sections are now suffer-
ing for moisture; the movement has
continued very heavy; trade reports
about the same and spots in the South
have eased.
The response to these factors has
been meagre as there has been but lit
tie pressure of long cotton and people
do not care to sell extensively. The
continued apprehension Of some July
deal increases the caution. July, which
closed at 7.65 last Saturday, closed at
7.56@7.5S today with tone Of the market
quiet.
Leaving out of consideration the pos
sibility that some powerful interest
will attempt to manipulate July, the
market seems to rest squarely upon the
question Of crop prospects. The bulls
have about abandoned hope of any re-
lief from shrinkage in the movement
or strengthening of the statistical
position at the seasons end, while the
steadiness Of the market in the face of
heavy receipts week after week, dis
concerts those who have relied upon
this alone to bring us to lower level.
The crops seems to be about two
weeks late and to have had in the
main an unfavorable start. But the
recent rains bid fair to bring more ia
vorable reports; the acreage Is admit
tedly enormous and the use of fertili-
zers on a scale never known before.
July furnishes the theme for much
gossip, and concerning that position
one guess Is as good as another. How
strong the holders are, what their in
tentions may be, whether they can
manipulate that month or realize, and
are points to guess on. One thing Is
certain. If any manipulation Is at
tempted, those engineering the deal
will get good round lot Of low grade
cotton and they will not find the shorts

SHARON, May 20.-Memorial services
were observed at Sharon cemetery on
May 18th. The committee Of arrange
ments invited a preacher and law
yer to come and address the associa-
ton on that day; but they failed to
come. Rev. ]. S. Grier opened the ex-
ercises with prayer, after which ne
paid a beautiful tribute to the Confed-
crate soldiers patriotism. At the close
of his address, he read a letter from
one Of the members of the association,
who was sick and not able to attend
in person. BY request of several or the
old soldiers who were present, the let
ter is sent to THE YoRKvILLE ENoU1-

To the Ladies Of the Memorial Asso-
ISOLATION: Dear Friends:
have long wanted a Memorial asso-
citation at this place. have only been
permitted to meet with you one time,
and perhaps may never meet with you
again on earth. The old soldiers OF
'61-'65 are fast passing away, death
claiming a larger number each year.
Since our last meeting together, year
ago, another old soldier has been buried
here, and one of our number has gone
to her long home.
Those of us who came through war
know something Of what war means.
The memory Of it still fingers with us,
and will as long as life; lasts. Bidd1ng
farewell to a loving father and hve
dear brothers, to be shot down on the
battlefield, is not soon forgotten. And
those Of us who dressed the wounds OF
the dying soldier boy will not forget
what war is. My dear young friends,
you know nothing Of the trials and
troubles Of war. Let me beg Of you to
keep in memory the Lost Cause" "
Step lightly over the graves of the
young soldier boys
Who gave their lives for their country;
Strew their graves with flowers,
And pause and shed a tear today
To the memory Of the soldier dead.
Oh, the glory Of their story,
Oh, the graves that dot the plain,
Oh, the mournfal tale Of battle,
Oh, the parting and the pain.
And as soldiers weave them garlands,
Rose and lilly DER them spread,
Love and tears a nations tribute
To a nations glorious dead.
