THE SOUTH AND OLEO.

Those cotton farmers who have
been led to believe that the Grous
bill would injure the cotton seed in.
dustry ought to read Secretary
Wilson's speech before the Senate
Committee on Agriculture. He shows
the matter in its true light as fol
lows:
"Dairying will increase in the
mountain states as hOmeSteaders
take possession of land on which to
raise families, and it Will increase in
the cotton growing states as farmers
realize the necessity of rotations of
crops, and the increase of grazers
and feeders that come through this
industry. The benefit that comes
to the cotton growers, through the
sale of Il little oil to be used in max
ing OleOmargarine, is very small
compared with the dairying and
feeding that must he increased to
$ the ~by-prOduct of the cotton
seed mills, and the consequent re-
turn to the soil of this most valuable
OF all feeds and fertilizers. The best
interests of the cotton seed belt lie in
increasing its dairy and feeding in
.terests, rather than in contributing
u little oil toward the serious injury
of dairying and feeding, that should
use all the cotton seed meal produced
there"

The action of Mayor Van Wyck, of
New York, in refusing to lower the
flag on the city hall in honor of the
memory of Queen Victoria deserves
condemnation as a bit of narrowness
entirely at variance with the true
American spirit. We r surprised
that it is defended by Col. w. j..

COTTON GROWERS ASSOCIATION.
The N. c. Delegation Left Yesterday For At
lanta

The cotton market of Raleigh went off
one-fourth of a cent yesterday, although
it has continued steady at the same price
for nearly the whole of the past two
weeks.
The weakness was not local, but the
news comes that the New York market
was shaky also. The local cotton men
here could give no especial reason for
the decline, but said that the market had
shown a downward trend for several
days.
In New York the cotton market de-
velopd positive weakness i'll the absence
of any public interest to overcome the
more or less generally adverse conditions.
Cables were disappointing with Liverpool
showing a heavy decline in spot prices
and a decided decline in futures. In addi-
tion the bearish new influence IN inns
country were a weak semi weekly stocks
showing There was an offset to port
receipts which continued. Under these
conditions, the New York market opened
at decline of from three to seven points
and gave way four to twenty polnti
further Liquidations was quite active.
Otherwise the market was quiet. The de-
cline was arrested by proht-taMng by
the short interest and some buying In
small way fo~ an upturn on the ldea that
during the late period of depression the
market had become oversold. The mar
ket closed easy at a net decline OF froEi
9 to "a points.
The question Of especial interest 10 the
cotton men now is as to the per cent
of cotton already markted. Some OF the
buyers insist that there is very little
cotton in the country, while others say
that the crop raised last year was nor
NAL. and that a large amount of cotton
is being held waiting for the price to
reach 10 cents.
"If cotton were 10 go to 10 cents, the
cotton in the country wouldn't last
week, if the price remained at that
figure that long said cotton man yes
terday.
There were ISL bales sold in Raleigh
during the week ending February 9th'
against Slt bales for the corresponding
week of 1900. The price for the pest
grade was 8ls in 1900 against ga this
year.

crop had been marketed, which ne con
