PROV ENCE.

Special Correspondence.
Provence |. T., Oct. 1.-THE past
week was the most favorable cotton
picking weather this season and the
energetic farmers made good use OF
the time. More cotton was brought in
last week than any previous week
this season, and a greater amount
was expected this week, but rain came
last night and all is dependency. A
frown has taken the place of the
last weeks smile. The unfavorable
weather still prevails.
Today the little year-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. j. w. Gilley died after an
illness of twelve days. The remains
will be inferred in the Provence Gem
etery tomorrow.
We had a breakdown at our gin
last Saturday, and several loads of
cotton had to leave. He is about
ready for ginning again.
Mr.. Foster, our other gin man, gin
ned twenty-eight bales Saturday,
which was his last days run this
season.
Ben Coker, who has been sick Of a
fever for some time, is still very poor
ly. The general health is very good.

Cyntcs have declared that tomb
stones are the greatest liars in the
world. This is only another way Of
saying that the ancient maxim Tell
nothing ave good of the dead Is re-
spected everywhere. Humanity agrees
that anger, malice and hatred should
stop at the grave. Hence the grave
stone recites only the virtues of him
who sleeps beneath it and says moth
Ing of his failings and weaknesses. 1t
must be admitted, however, that in
some cases charity is heavily drawn
upon In the effort to find virtues to
ascribe to the deceased, and it is this
consideration, undoubtedly, which has
influenced the clergymen Of Hamilton,
Ohio, to declare by a unanimous vote
that they will no longer preach funeral
sermons ave In cases where they can
conscientiously ascribe to the dead
merits warranting eulogy. They de-
cline any longer to compete with the
tombstones in indiscriminate praise Of
people simply because those people are
dead. There is something to be said
for this attitude of the clergymen. A
philosopher once put the case thus: A
dead rascal is no more admirable than
Il live rascal save that he is incapable
Of further rascality. Why, therefore,
should he be eulogized? This state
ment of the proposition appears logical
and 1t no doubt appeals with particular
force to clergymen, who, from their
very profession. may be supposed to
deprecate any departure from the truth
even in Difference to the tradition de
mortuis nil nisi bonum." Whatever
license In elegaic matters may be per-
mitted to tombstones or even to men
not in holy orders, 1t must be conceded
that silence Is after all the highest
charity which may reasonably he ex-
pected of a preacher. The clerlcs Of
Hamilton. Ohio, have done wisely and
seemingly in resolving to leave post
norton eulogies of doubtful veracity
to the tombstones. Heaven lies about
us In our infancy, but the clergyman
cannot afford to lie about us when we
IRE dead. The storied urn must do
that.

A man that has taken reasonable
care of himself ought not to be old at
fifty. But at fifty David Loeb of New
York felt that he had lived too long,
and so committed suicide. Loeb was
not poor. He retired from business
two years ago, land had since seemed
respondent because he had nothing to
do" He was a bachelor. If Loeb had
married he would have had his wife
and children to love and think of in
stead of being obliged to concentrate
his thoughts Upon his bored self. 1t
keeps the heart young to be interested
in the welfare of others. Or If when he.
was in active business he had had the
sense not to let it absorb him to the,
exclusion Of everything else he would
have remained young and able to en-
joy life. No man that desires to avoid
a miserable old age will permit the.
work habit to enslave him. He will
read books, go about among people,
form friendships, cultivate his tastes,
ride a hobby-do anything rather than,
narrow himself down to a money-mak-
ing routine that is sure to harden the
feelings and atrophy the mind, and so
make a walking mummy Of him. Any
one That starts with "a good cnstltution
and a decent outfit of brains should not
be exhausted at fifty. If he finds him
self world-weary and fatigued with
life at that age he has only himself
to blame. And he can freshen his spir-
1t and revive his energies by searching
out ways to do a little good. Loeb, If
he had become the friend and helper of
children, or had made 1t his business
to be a special providence to some poor
family in his neighborhood, would not
have been troubled with the despond-
ency that led him to the disgraceful
crime Of suicide.

NJ. f. INGALLS,. the cost Of the necessities of life mas
decreased. On the other hand, the earnings OF capnal
have grown less and less each year, and the responsibility
and trouble of keeping it employed has Increased. Inc
rate of interest in this country is only about one-half what
it was twenty-five years ago. A citizen who retired from
business then and decided to live on his income is toda!
in comparatively poor circumstances. In other words, Il
he has stood still he. has seen the interest upon his capital
cut in two, while his expenses have at the best stood still
Capital has been able to exist and increase only when II
has been actively employed, and If it has been active II
has had to employ labor in order to exist. Has the danger
to labor increased by the organization Of the vast combi-
nations of to-day? The trust is no new danger. 1t Is an
aggregation of capital under a new name. 1t may be a
greater one, but 1t is only a large corporation-the out
growth of business and competition. How to control 1t is
the question.
Publicity and taxation, all agree, is one way Of con-
trolling and keeping the trusts within the limits. Let the
full light of day be turned on all their actions, all their
statements and all their accounts, and provide either by a
franchise or license tax that they shall pay their fair share
of the burdens Of the people.
We must, so far as possible, protect our small landhold-
ers. In their hands is the future Of the Republic. So far,
therefore, as 1t can be done by legislation our small prop
erty holders should be encouraged and they should be pro-
tected; their burden should be made as light as possible
and capital should be made to pay its fair share Of the
burdens Of the State. Large ownerships of land should be
discouraged and prevented.
