editorial on the negro question.

Saxon race a more serious and ur-

ideals which underlaid the enamel

of realization, that it has been prov

negro is incapable of working out
his own salvation and that the
theory of electoral equality is Il

We publish else where this
morning. as usual, the chief
features of Hester's report on the
cotton crop. His report is the
standard authority throughout the
world, and of the greatest interest
to every one connected with the
cotton industry.
Mr.. Hester puts the commercial
crop at I0GSO.6S0 balcs. an in
crease of 297.25S bales over that
of the previous year, ! ,244 ,264 over
that of ls99-l9OO and decrease
of 594, $50 bales from that of 1898
1899.
The actual crop, that il. amount
of cotton raised during the season.
he figures ut I0,550,0OO. On this
point The Times Democrat would
call attention to its crop reports
published on December last year.
nine months ago, when we put the
crop at 100000, or only Ii per
cent out of the way. The Times
Democrat has made no prctense of
being a crop estimator. but the fig
ures as published by us at the
time, and based on our very full
and complete report of the condi-
ton of the staple, gave possible
yield by States which figured up
10.4OO,OOO bales The fact that the
figures were so close to the actual
truth is attri butable to the circum-
stance that most of those who fur
nished US with the crop reports
were newspapermen, wholly unin-
terested in either bUlling or bear
ing prices whose interests and pre-
judices were not likely TO mislead
them. They gave the promised
yield. and in doing so fell only ii
per cent. below the actual crop.
Mr.. Hester shows that all Of the
States increased their production
of cotton except Texas, which fell
off very perceptibly.
In spite of the crop being 297,-
25S bales larger than last year, it
brought actually less money, the
cotton selling for an average Of
Si4Ol n bale, as against SAT 63 for
19O0-19Ol. but this is considerably
higher than for previous years.
the average value of the crop of
lc99-l9O0 being S3S % "A bale and
that of 1s9S-1o99 only S25Os a
bale. The total value of the crop,
including only the cotton and not
the seed. was S43S,0l4,6S7. against
$494, 561 $40 in 1900 1901 and
1868, 1S4, $50 the previous season.
That is, the farmers got SGT. 552.-
S62 less than in l90O-19Ol. but
$74. 229, SGT more than in 80 1900.
In addition TO his figures of the
cotton crop, Mr.. Hester has for a
number of years past given most
interesting statistics on the sub
ject of the cotton industry of the
South, showing the rapid progress
it is making. Twelve years ago
67.7 of the American cotton man
ufactured into goods went to the
Northern mills and only 1913 per
cent to the Southern mills. To-
day the North takes 5I.4l per cent
Of this cotton and the South AS 50
per cent. or a slight fraction less
than half. Another two yours will

81 bales OF American cotton, an
increase Of 81, 0i0 bales over the
previous season. This is truly
wonderful Increase considering
that the conditions have not been
perfect and that during the latter
part of the season the difference

Mr. Hester notes that the amount

mills Is increasing, having been
lS0,S02 bales for the season just
rIosed az against 100, 81 during
1900 1901. Some Of this cotton

Lord Rosslyn Tries His New
Gambling System.
IT SUCCEEDS THUS FAR

$1,000 Up to Date.
IT SUCCEEDS THUS FAR
HAS BAD PERIODS AT THE START
to Play Too Long for Fear
OF Nervousness.
Now York Sun srecxay Service

Monte Carlo, Jan. Lord Rosslyn's
System" to break the banke Of Monte
Carlo, has proved decided success SO
has had four sittings, rising from the
table at II o'clock last night. He has won
at every sitting and the winnings to date
are $13,400 Among those who watched
the Englishmen were Senator Depew and
his bride.
Eard Rosslyn lost no time in getting at
the bank after his arrival He had two
sittings at Trente> ct Quarante, one in
the afternoon and one at night. On an
accounting at night he was found to have
won $4,000 The managers of the bank
evidently. count upon getting all Of the
money subscribed by the English syndi-
cate that is backing the noble gambler in
the end. Z. eH
The earl was accompanied by three
members Of the syndicate, an accountant,
stenographer and a detective. Their
arrival caused much excitement, every
body deserting the other tables. Lord
Rosslyn began his play by risking one
louis ($4), the lowest limit allowed. AS
the play proceeded he gradually raised
his bets until finally he placed nothing
smaller than 500 franc note. He had
several bad periods at the start, but after
that his luck was steady He was get
ting along swimmingly when, after two
and one half hours play, he was pulled
away from the table by the three men
representing the syndicate. This was
done under an agreement never to let him
play too long for fear that he would get
nervous and go to pieces. The party with
drew to a corner, where Lord Rosslyn
emptied his pockets into the hat Of the
accountant, who counted the money un-
der the watchful eye of the members of
the syndicate. His earnings for the first
sitting were $6,40O.
The gambler played again from to 10
at night and won $500. Most Of the
Americans, men and women, at the table
followed the game as played by Lord
Rosslyn, and were rewarded by winnings
of more than $4,000 for the American col
ony. Lord Rosslyn had several hours of
hard luck, last light, but when he arose
at Il he was 5000 to the good or the
day. He declared that he firmly expected
to break the bank daily after few days
and to continue doing SO as long as he is
permitted to play.
