deductions as to the productivity of the soil or seed can be based on this.
 If we look back for six years only we see a steady decline in the average yield per acre-a decline that would by itself seem so alarming as to command the most serious attention of the country; but if we go back of that for twenty years we find that the high averages between 1S95-96 and 1900-01 were abnormal, and, therefore, ---e decrease in the production per acre may not be so serious as It looks on its face. On the other hand, these high averages for the whole South between 1892 and 1898 may in part be due to the heavy opening up of new and fer tile soil in Texas. Indian. Territory and Oklahoma, offsetting a decline in the older sections. At any rate, the cotton situation Is one which demands the wid- est investigations by the national gov- ernment and the experts of every agrf- cultural college in the South. The vel fare of the whole country, the vast for eign commerce based on cotton, the enor- nous cotton-manufactu interests of America and Europe are at stake. If there Is no danger. the world needs to know it beyon dthe possibility of any er- TOT; if there is danger( then no sum, whether it be one million or one hundred million, is too large for the national gov ernment to spend in overcoming 1t. for in the long run the best interests of the South, as well as of the worlds textile interests, will be advanced by a very great increase in the cotton production of the Southern Ststes. and 1t Is alto gether probable that within the next five or ten years, with the growing cOnsump- tive requirements of the world, there will be need of a crop of 100000 or l5.OOO,- 600 bales in the South"

LECTURE ON SOCIALISM.
Rev. W. R. Gaylord Heard at coun-
 tY Court House.


 A fairly good sized audience gathered at the Court House at s o'clock last night tol hear Rev. Winfield R. Gaylard of Milwaukee, Wis, deliver his lecture on Progress and Socialism The audience appeared to be well pleased with the lecture.
 MT. Gaylard is free and easy speaker and seems to be thoroughly versed in his subject-Socialism. He spoke in a clear. we'll modulated voice and used forceful language. Mir. Gaylord is a Presbyterian minister. He talks of his subject at the same time from the view point of humanity and religion.
 He was introduced in a short, appro- priate speech by W. V. Newton a we'll known Montgomery socialist. In the preface to his lecture. Mir. Gaylord began by telling what Socialism is nOt.''
 His lecture was in part as follows:
 Socialism Is not anarchy. To quote the great German, Llebknecht, 'Demoe- racy today demands socialism, and social ism involves democracy Anarchy is the negation of government: socialism Is the next necessary step in the perfection of it.
 The trusts are doing more to destroy free government than anarchism itself. Socialism is not free love- 1t will not

destroy the family. One of the 4LtJ. ties on scientific socialism asys
 Is no raeson to believe that there sible any higher forms of maria N. the union of one man and one VI
 ''The assuring to every wor.- -lle ample income measured by the product of his or her labor, and the guarantee Of education to every child, would only make possible more homes and better homes, and a higher sexual morality. Love would not then be for sale,' as 1t is now. The fact is the decent home is being destroyed by the profit system.
 Socialism Is not atheism. The Ger man socialist movement has declared that, Religion is a private natter The socialist aims only to provide a surer. safer and more rational way for those who do the worlds work to get a living Socialism is simply the application of scientific principles to the problem of get ting batter physical existence for all the human race When that problem is soiv- ed, men will have leisure to think about religion, which the mass of them do little of today. Socialism does not attack any church, but 1t attacks capitalism every where. in the church or out of it.
 Socialism Is not dividing up.' It tIie contrary, and that is 'coIlectivisT It proposes the collective ownership those means of production and distri ton which are capable of being mono polized.
 '"The United States census of 1900 show cd the average annual product per work ing person to be about g, 400 and the aver age annual wages about $400. Tn the face of such a fact as that, anyone who calls Socialism dividing up is simply ignor or else guiltily anxious to confuse public mind as to the facts"

SOUTHERN PROGRESS
ELABORATE REVIEW OF 30 YEARS OF COTTON.
stupendous EIgures Indicate What the High Prices for the Staple Mean for the Welfare of
 This Section.

Baltimore, Dec. u.--(Speclal. )-The Manufacturers' Record. in an elaborate review of cotton production during the last thirty years, gives among other facts the average yield per acre for each year as a basis for the discussion of questions affecting the future, such as the claims which have been made by some of the deterioration of seed by reason of selling the best seed to the cotton oil mills, the deterioration of the soil by reason of the negro tenantry sys- tenn. and the insufficient supply of farm labor. because of the rapid growth of industrial employment, to enable the South to materially increase its cotton yield.
 Pointing out how the abnormally low prices which prevailed from 1891 to 1898 had been as unprofltable to Southern far mers as the low prices of wheat and corn some years ago. when in some places 1t was more profitable to burn corn as fuel than to ship it East were to Vest ern farmers, the Manufacturers Record shows that since the upward trend of cotton prices a few years ago the total value of cotton and cotton seed for the last five years has been $2,57b. 900, ,00O against S1 .775 100000 for the preceding five wears. ar a gain In the last five years of $500 OOO, 900 over the amount received by the South for it's cotton crop in the pre- ceding hve-year period.
 These stupendous figures indicate some thing of what the higher price of cotton means to the welfare of the entire South. The value of the cotton crop of 1902-O3. ln- cludinR seed. was $565, 100000. The value of the present crop. including seed. may be safely estimated at S625, ,OOO0OO; but add ed to inc very great increase in the val ne of the Souths cotton crop Is the fact that 1t raised probably the largest corn crop which 1t ever produced the value of which is many millions of dollars greater than the corn crop of last year. The sSOO, ,OOO 900 received by the South for Its cotton during the last five years in exceas of what 1t received during the precediAg five years is nearly twice as much as the entire capital invested in all the cotton mills of the United States , i'm 1900; it Is more than the present mar ket value of the entire property of the United States Steel Corporation, more than the market value of the Standard oil Company, and more than the entire capital of all the national banks of the

NOT A TRACE LEFT A CURE FOR RHEUMATISM THAT IS COMPLETE AND
 PERMANENT.
MT. Wagar Tells How Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People Cured
 Him-His Wife's Enthusiasm.

There is one remedy that will cure rheu- matism in any of it's forms and so thor ouEhly eradicate the disease from the system that the cure is permanent This remedy is Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People and proof of the statement Is found in the experience of MT. T. Wagar of N. 72 Acadamy Street Water town, N. Y. He says:
 ''The pain was in my joints and my suffering for over two years was beyond description. There was an intens pain in my shoulders that prevented me from sleeping and would get up and walk tho floor at night. When I began taking pr. Williams Pink Pills the improvement was gradual, but after I had taken four boxes was entirely cured and have not had the slightest touch of rheumatism since that time."
 MT. wagar's wife is also enthusiastic in her endorsement of Dr. Williams Pink Pills. She says: 'I have tried the pills myself for stomach trouble and have ex- perienced great relief from their use My daughter, Mrs. Atwood, of Gill Street watertown, has used them for female weakness and was much benefited by them. I regard Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People as an extremely valuable family medicine
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People are successful because they attack the disease at its root. Other remedies act on the symptoms-these marvellous pill s remove the cause of the trouble. They have proven themselves a specific for all diseases arising from impure or impov- erished blood and weakened nerves-twe fruitful causes of nearly all the ills to which mankind is heir. Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People are sold only in boxes at fifty cents box, or six boxes for two dollars and fifty cents, and may be had of all druggists, or direct by mail from pr. Williams Medicine Co.,, Schenec- tady, N. T.

 .and there was no jawing about giving the right of way; no talk of breaking heads and police courts. If 1t had been two of you men who had met on that bridge one would have showed the other off, and there would have been trouble, sure. You can learn a lesson from the goats.
