TsICotton Supply Exhausted.

TsIcotton Supply Exhausted.
The State.
New Yory, April 4.-The following
statement by Mr.. Price was issued
tonight:
The speculation in cotton contin-
ues to broaden and the prices are
advancing day by day as result Of
the sensational falling off in the
movement of the crop from the plan
tations. Replies to about nine hun
dred telegrams sent by me to every
town of over 800 inhabitants in the
cotton belt reveal the fact that the
exhaust Of the crop'is more complete
than has ever been known at this
time of the year. Many towns report
no cotton whatever on hand and none
in the surrounding country, ard in
the few cases where any substantial
quantity of cotton is reported is held
it is general stated that it is either
sold or awaiting consumption on the
part of the southern mills. Tie pros
pect of complete exhaustion of the
supply is greater than at any previous
time this season.

Shall Senator Tillman Boss the
State?

Carolina Spartan.
The State Democratic convention
will meet in May. New officers will
be elected and a general reorganiza-
tion made. It would be we'll to keep
all Uficeholders and candidates out
of the committee. If the convention
was offered by non-candidates it
would be better. It is believed that
this is an important year for the
State Democracy. There is no rea-
son why it should be more so than
other years. One great question is
before the people. It is said: Shall
Senator Tillman be allowed to boss
conventions and State politics as
usual, or will the people control. If
Tillman is to dictate platforms and
control everything relating to the
rules and elections then there is no
use for the counties to send dele
gates. The time has come for the
people to take charge of the political
welfare of the State. Will they do
it?

Easter Remarks.

70 the Editor OF the Dlspatco:
'sConsider the lily of the field. "
We must take Cur Lords words ex-
actly. He is speaking of the lilles'
the bulbous plants which spring into
flowers in countless thousands every
spring over the downs of Eastern
lands.
All the winter they are dead, un-
slightly roots, hidden in the earth.
But no sooner does the sun of spring
shines upon their graves than they
rise into life and beauty as it pleases
God and every seed takes its own pc
culiar body. Sown in corruption they
are raised in interruption; sown in
weakness they are raised in power;
sown in dishonor they are raised in
glory; delicate, beautiful in color, per-
tuning the air with fragrance, types
of Immortality fit for the crowns OF
angels.
"Consider the lilies Of the field"
how they grow, for even so is the res
direction of the dead, Yes, but not
without divine pro7idence-yea, a
divine inspirarion-has the blessed
Eastertide been fixed by the Church
of all ages at the season when the
earth shakes eff her winter sleep;
when the birds come back and the
flowers begin to bloom. When every
seed which falls into the ground and
rises again with a new body is
witness to us of the resurrection Of
Christ, and witness, too, that we
shall rise again; that in US, as in its
life, shall conquer death when every
bird that comes back to sing and
build among US, every flower that
blooms is a witness to US Of the res
direction of the Lord and of our ras-
direction.
The resurrection Of the earth from
her winter sleep commentaries to US
as each blessed Eastertide comes
round the resurrection of our Lord
Jesus Christ, and is a witness to Us
that some day life shall conquer
death; light conquer darkness; right
business conquer sir; Joy conquer
grief; when the whole creation groan-
eth and tra7aileth in pain until now
shall have brought forth thst Of
which it traVaileth in labor even the
new heaven and the new earth where
in shall be neither sighing nor sor-
row, but God shall wipe away tears
from all eyes.
We will all be present in the resur-
rection morning. In that glorious
morning of the resurrection the saints
shall put on their new fresh garments
of fresh, richly laid and trimmed
with glory. Those bodies which in the
grave were dust shall be shining and
excellent pieces absolutely and ever
lastingly freed from in6rmaties, de-
formaties and natural necessities.
True the glory of the soul will be
the greatest glory. That's the orient
in valu 5le gem; will bestow a dis
tinct gA> upon the body and richly
enamel th aver case in which that
jewel shall be kept.
AS smiling after tears,
AS bloom after blight,
AS hope after fear.
AS day after night,
Thou art, O, Easter!
Sent to impart,
Messengers Of gladness,
Unto each heart.

FULTON IS THE MAN.

Portland Chronicle: Hon. c. W.
Fulton has won IN honest fight. He
has honestly and openly aspired to rep
resent this state in the United States
senate, and has fitted himself to fill
the position. His claim upon his party
is denied by no one. Able and fear
less, he has at all times and in all
places fought the battles of his party.
Broad-minded and liberal In his views,
he seeks the welfare of the whole state
and every part OF it. An open river
to the sea and reclamation of the arid
lands will have his heartiest support.
He has come before the representatives
of the people not with hands barring
gold and working in secret. but with
mind fully equipped TO best serve the
state and an honest purpose to give Of
his best to the state he seeks 10 serve.
The fight has been made. For four
years Mr.. Fulton has stood before the
people among other aspirants. an
avowed and open aspirant for seat in
the senate, and he has come through
the ordeal without bitterness and with
out reproach. the choice Of the people |
and the choice OF majority Of the |
legislature, for the position to which he
aspires. A remarkable record-the |
survival OF the fittest.

ART OF ADVERTISING.


II the sig IS of The times give evidence
OF any one fact, they make plain the
latser-day truth that the science or art
Of, and the necessity for advertising
have arrived definitely and must in
future be eoasidered among the things
which are. The millions OF dollars
spent annually for publicity, the army
OF men and women who have been
specially trained for the business Of
preparing and disseminating adyertis-
ing matter, and the taste or habit
which has been developed in the pub
lie as the result of modern needs and
methods In this respect, all prove that
judicious advertising must in future be
a part and an important part OF any
successful business.
The time when a man could hang up
q sign and sell goods on the strength
Of his location or personality is becom-
ing remembrance. and his nelghbor
who studies the art OF exploiting his
wares or bringing his goods properly
before the attention of the public, and
showing to intending or possible pur-
chasers what advantages he has to Of
fer. Is the man who distances competi-
tors. The difference between waiting
for chance or something else to bring
in customer and attracting the GUS
toner by live advertising methods Is
largely the difference between success
before the attention of the public, and
means OF advertising, the daily paper
stands acknowledged the chief.

MAN AND HIS CLOTHES.

Harvard university, il 10 said. pro-
poses to take step in advance and
lead all other American colleges along
the path Of proper academic dress. 1t
Is announced that the corporation Of
the university has taken action max
ing 1t '.permissive for all holders OF de.
grees to wear special academic cos
tunes" and 1t Is believed that all who
have that gracious permission VIII
profit by 1t.
No information has been given as to
what moved the corporation to take
such action, but 1t Is probable some
of the members, IL not all Of them. have
seen the recently published photo
graphs Of the coal strike arbitrators
as they appeared when clothed in the
garb of the miners preparing to des-
cend a mine. That picture clearly IL
Iustrates the value to man Of his pro-
per adornments. The members OF the
arbitration board are dignitaries of no
mean rank. but they looked in their un-
wonted clothes like a pack Of ramps
rounded up by village constable and
about to be photographed at rouges
gallery.
1t is further interesting to note that
lust at this time the trial of lawsuit
in Paris between the members of a
firm Of corset manufacturers discloses
the fact that the firm makes annually
a large number Of corsets for the offic-
ers Of the various armies. The Ger
mans do not buy male cors4ts from
France because there is German fac
tory for the goods. Thus it APPEARS
that much Of the trim alertness and
the distinguished dignity Of carriage
that mark the military man are due
not so much to his martial Vigor as to
his corset.
There have been critics Of the action
OF the Harvard corporation. They say
IT win tend to give another impetus to
the idea of scholastic Journalism and
to create aristocratic distinctions which
are out of place in democratic c. un-
try The Call thinks there is some
virtue in such criticisms but they are
not sufficient to make Harvard pause,
nor indeed would the critic himself as
sert them very vigorously if he would
make a thorough study of the photo |
graph of the arbitration board in demo- !
cratic clothes. Let Harvard go ahead
in academic dress reform. She is all
right, and need not pause to answer II
