Puerto Rico has strong disposi-

drawing trailers, on the same road
for freight purposes. Many fine roads
are under construction in the island

to carry freight will soon disappear.

America is the land of nervous women.
The great majority OF nervous women are
so because they are suffering from some
form OF female disease. by far the great
est number of female troubles are caused
by catarrh.
Women afflicted with pelvic catnrrh de-
spair OF recovery. Female trouble is so
common, so prevalent, that they accept it
as almost inevitable. The greatest obsta-
Gle in the way of recovery is that they do
not understand that it is catarrh which is
the source OF their illness. In female com
plant, ninety-nine cases out of one hun
dred are nothing but catarrh. Pcruna
cures catarrh wherever located.

1t can now be stated as fact, that

The Father of Democracy.

The first American statesman of
prominence to advocate the building up
Of an American merchant marine by
means of subsidies was Thomas Jeffer-
son. He commenced talking and writ
ing along this line some years before the
adoption of the present constitution and
kept it UP until the day of his death in
1926. The following extract from a let
ter from Mr.. Jefferson to Richard Hen
ry Lee, written in Paris in 1855, is of
no doubtful meaning:
Il should be happy to hear that con-
greSs thought of establishing packets of
their own between New York and
Havre. Could not the surplus of the
postoffice revenue be applied to this?"
Later. in 1871. because of prohibitive
duties in foreign markets, the New
England fisheries and fishermen fell in
to such distress as to engage the atten-
ton of congress. George Washington
was president and Thomas Jefferson
was secretary of state. At the request
of congress, Mr.. Jefferson gave his
views on the situation in an exhaustive
state paper. Among other things he
said:
1T will rest with the wisdom of the
legislature to decide whether prohibition
should not be opposed to prohibition,
and high duty to high duty, on the fish
of other nations; whether any, and
which, of the naval and other duties

BELIEVES IN COTTON.

Theodore Price, Of New York, Is
probably the most prominent corron
bull in the country. He Is convinced
that the present supply is far short Of
the demand that will be developed, and
that he thinks higher prices will pre-
vail. During Wednesday last he sent
out the following for publication in the
daily papers throughout the south on
Thursday:
Within the past few days the cotton
market has commenced to make recog-
milton Of the facts underlying the situa-
ton and the highest prices established
thus far this season have been recorded.
It appears more and more evident,
however, that the advance has just
commenced. So deep seated was the
belief abroad in the large crop estt-
mates Of Neill and others until recently
the foreign trade has steadfastly re-
fused to believe the evidence put before
them In convincing form, that the
American crop was very short one.
Within a day or two, however, their
attitude seems to have changed. The
firmness of Southern holders and their
unwillingness to sell except at full
prices have been the most convincing
argument that could be offered, and
Europe, now finding that 1t is unlikely
to strike the balance Of its supply OF
cotton at the present prices, Is eagerly
advancing its bids In an effort to Sc
cure what Is needed. It Is obvious that
Europe will require from March 1st,
out of this years crop, 1000, 900 bales.
It Is equally obvious that America re-
quires at least as much, If not more; g.
600, 900 is therefore low estimate Of the
cotton that must be had by the worlds
spinners In order to avoid the stoppage
Of their machinery. The stocks at the
southern ports and interior towns at the
commencement Of this month were ap-
proximately 100000. A minimum es-
innate Of the stocks necessary In
America to the conduct Of the business
at the end Of the year is 100000 less
than this, which means the closest cor
ner the world has ever known. If this
here to my belief that 1t Is only about
8, ,5OO, 900, we have maximum supply Of
2,65O, 900 bales with which to meet a
minimum demand of 100000. Under
these circumstances, believe that cot
ton at nine cents a pound Is very
cheap, and even at 10 cents pound the
legitimate demand for 1t from spinners
who must have it will be more eager
than it Is at present. So far as the
speculative market Is concerned, Au-
gust is logically the month in which
the stringency will be most acutely
felt and I venture the opinion that
August contracts, which are now selling
at discount Of some Is points as COM
pared with July, will ultimately prove
to be the cheapest on the market.

may be remitted, or an equivalent given
to the fisherman, in the form Of a draw
back, or bounty; and whether the loss
of markets abroad, may not, in some
degree, be compensated by creating
markets at home"
If we have no seamen, our ships will
be useless, consequently our ship tim
ber iron and hemp; our shipbuilding
will be at an end, ship carpenters go
over to other nations, our young men
have no call to the sea. our produce
carried in foreign bottoms, be saddled
with war freight and insurance In
times of war; and the history Of the
last hundred years shows that the ma
ton which Is our carrier has three
years of war for every four years of
peace. We lose, during the same pc
riods, the carriage for beligerent pow
ers, which the neutrality Of our flag
would render an incalculable source of
profit; we lose at this moment the car
riage of our own produce to the annual
amount of two millions of dollars,
which, in the possible progress of the
encroachment, may extend to five or six
millions, the worth Of the whole, with
an increase in the proportion Of the in
crease of our numbers.
Largely as the result Of Mr.. Jeffer-
sons efforts, a merchant marine was fl
nally built up; but because there has
been a dearth of statesmen Of the JEFF
ferson class, that merchant marine has
declined. Many leading men who make
the present security and happiness and
the future prosperity and greatness of
this country their principal study, have
been convinced that Mr.. Jefferson's idea
was the correct one, and that is why
they are so earnest in their efforts to
again put 1t in effect.

DISPENSARY WINS.

And after all Yorkville Is to have
dispensary. The matter was decided
at the polls on yesterday, and the old
town has decided to again engage In
the unrestricted and indiscriminate sale
of whisky as beverage for the money
there Is in 1t.
Since it's inception the big fight has
waxed warmer and warmer. Soon after
the presentation Of the petition asking
for an election, it began to dawn upon
the opponents Of the dispensary that
the advocates of the scheme had laid
their wires carefully and well. 1t is
clear now that the whole thing has been
under advisement since the time Of the
dispensary election in Rock Hill last
summer Had Rock Hill voted for the
dispensary, an election would have
been held in Yorkville within a week
or two afterward. But with the defeat
of the scheme in Rock Hill, the local
advocates lost their nerve temporarily
and allowed the matter to be passed
over for the time being.
The movement that resulted In the
present election had it's origin little
more than two months ago. 1t was
preceded by a careful canvass Of quiet
talk, that resulted in the reasonably ef-
fective organization of all the local SEN
timent without alarming the opposi-
ton. Even after matters had been got
ten in shape for the launching Of the
petition that paper was circulated with
all possible secrecy with an especial
view to avoiding opposition.
Up to ten days ago, it was reasona-
bly, certain that the dispensary advo-
Gates had a majority Of the people who
were showing interest in the question
on their side; but within the past week,
especially since last Sunday, when the
work Of arousing the church people was
so effectively commenced, all the gains
have been against the dispensary, and
although it was not with the fullest as
surance that the anti-dispensary peo-
pie entered into the final battle yester-
day morning, 1t was with rather more
encouragement than they had felt. at
any time previously. But it was no
use. The cards had been stacked
against them, and because Of the short
time limit, it was impossible to over
come the long stealthy lead that had
already been secured by their oppo-
nents.
The election passed off quietly, with
out especial incident. notwithstanding
the deep interest that was manifested
on both sides. The books Of the NUM-
cipal supervisor now show total regis
tration of 1856. OF these III participated
in the election yesterday, giving 96
votes for the dispensary, and rs
against it. The dispensary people win
by a majority of 81 votes.
