"The price of cotton is well
maintained, and the southern plan
ter can we'll feel -jubilant. Cotton
was the last thing to rise, and
more than one crop was raised at
a loss.
at is estimated that the cotton
crop, including the seed, will
bring 5000, 900, 900, or $50 bale.
The whole crop would have to
sell for at least 10 cents to realize
these figures, and that may be too
much to hope for. Nevertheless,
the southern farmer may for once
congratulate himself on the pleas
ant outlook and prepare to spend
some Of his money in making the
home more attractive and farm
life a little easier. 1t is too soon
yet to begin spending this money,
for no one can tell what IS to hap
pen in the markets. But cotton
crop, even of 5000 millions, is a
great boon to the south, and makes
it possible for the hard working
farmers to do things on the farm
they have long wanted to do, but
have been unable to accomplish.
"The farm must support the
man. Let the man study the needs
Of his land and plan to make bet

The Farm a Reflector.

The farm is the looking-glass
which reflects the character of the
owner. If he is slovenly, his
house and yards and fencs-cor.
ners show it. If he is kind and
generous, his live stock will be
slick and fat. If he is patient
aud industrious his fields will
show sn increasing fertility. II
he is good prcvider, his meat
house and hay-loft and corn-crib
will show ample supplies. If he
is man of taste, the surroundings
Of his dwelling will be embellished
with rare and beautiful flowers.
No one can ride by country
place without making up his mind
as to the character of the owner,
for it will be reflected IN the hous-
es. fences, fields and stock and
everything which is under his
care.-Ex.

Canal Treaty Rejected.

The congress at Columbia has
rejected the canal treaty submit
ted by our government by unani-
nous vote. What influences have
been brought to bear to bring
about this result are not on the
surface but possibly the influence
of the transcontinental railroads
had much to do with it. The eff
feet of the failure to ratify the
treaty will be to delay the opening
up of canal across the isthmus a
few years longer. The act which
authorized the purchase OF the
Panama canal which had been
partially dug authorizes also the
negotiation with Nicaragua for
that route in case there is a fail
ure of the first treaty. The latter
route was the choice of Senator
Morgan ard many other southern
senators and it is to be hoped
that the matter may soon be taken
up and the Nicaragua route adopt
ed and work begun within a short
time. The south needs an outlet
to the east for her growing pro-
ducts and any delay will prove
greatly to our disadvantage.

The Crops.

At this time Lee county never
had better prospect for full
crop Of both cotton and corn. The
latter promises the heaviest yield
ever known in the county and if
no disaster destroys the crop the
county will sell more corn than we
have ever sold. AS the bottom
lands haye been put in cultivation
the acreage has increased and to
day there is larger acreage than
was ever known in corn. The yield
from this alluvial land ranges
from forty to sixty bushels per
acre making of the corn crop a
very profitable one. While it is
three weeks late, 1t is we'll fruit
ed and the yield will be heavy.
With such conditions we have
every reason to congratulate our
selves,

Colonization the Remedy.

John Temple Graves said moth
ing new on the race question in
his speech at Chautauqua, N. "
there is nothing new to say-but
he emphasized certain phases of
the subject in very forclble man
ner. The most salient of the sal
lent points upon which he dwelt
was the necessity for separation
of the races. He sees no possible
solution of the question except by
the deportation OF the negro.
His contention is that the negro
cannot be kept in this enlightened
country without educating him,
and that the more you educate him
the more ambitious he becomes of
equality with the whites, and the
more intense the friction between
him and the white man becomes.
1
1t is like adding strain constantly
to boiler which already threatens
to explode. In Mr.. Graves opinion
the explosion can only be averted
by providing a safety valve in the
way of emigration of the negro
to a country Of his own, or to
countries in which the negro is al
ready dominant.
A great majority of the newspa
pers and spokesman for Southern
opinion generally will condemn
Mr. Graves idea as entirely i'm
practicable, though he holds it in
common with many Of the greatest
men Of the nation. 1t is imprac-
able to move the negroes in a body
or to move them all, no matter
how much time is given for the
exodus, but there is no insuperable
obstacle in the way Of the gradual
removal of enough of them to re-
lieve the racial strain that is be-
coming more snd more dangerous
all the time.
We could better afford to spend
81 900, 100000 opening up this
safety valve than to run the risk
of the disasters which are inviting
by our present policy in dealing
with the negro. The only other
solution is to diffuse the overplus
of the ambitious members of the
race throughout the North, but the
people of that section have recent
ly evinced such desire to exter-
inmate all the blacks among them
that the movement of negroes in
that direction has not only been
stopped, but turned back on the
South.
| In view of these facts, it would
be the part of wisdom for the
Southern leaders to begin to con-
slider at least the possibilities of
partial relief along the lines sug-
gested by Mr.. Graves, Senator
Morgan and a few others who are
disposed to look a few inches
ahead of their noses.-Memphis

back in 1862, a day or SO after the

feet became so sore from marching
over the rocks that l had to fall

away from the road that seemed to
have been missed by the soldiers.
The family was just sitting down
to a good dinner, and at my special
request they invited me in.

enjoyed a dinner So much, and not
knowing when could get anything
more, tried myself and ate very
big dinner, in fact, | took on about
three days ration. l left this house
and had gone about half a mile
when | saw some nice looking
ladies going toward a hospital with
covered basket. | was sure they
had something for the sick soldiers
and, while | did not feel that |
could eat anything more then, |

provision for the future and that |

poor soldier boy who has not
had mouthful to eat for three
days can get something to eat to
keep him from starving'
"You ought to have seen the
look of sympathy on their faces

Washington, Nov. 23.-Panama and
Cuba engaged the attention of the
senate. Senator Hale moved TO re-
consider the vote by which Senator
Newlands' joint resolution for the an
nexation of Cuba was referred to the
committee and several speeches were
made on the motion without disposing
of it. Senators Hale, Lodge and Platt
of Connecticut disavowed any desire
on the part of the United States to
acquire Cuba and expressed regret
that the resolution had been intro
duced. Senator Newlands defended
the measure as presenting natural
solution of the problem of the rela-
tfonsEip bewteen the two countries.
The Panama question came up IN
connection with the announcement of
the reorganization of the senate COM
mittees, Senator Morgan, democrat,
Alabama, being relieved from the
craftsmanship of the committee on in
teroceanic canals. Before the order
went into effect Senator Morgan took
the floor and his speech proved to be
a discussion of the entire canal ques-
ton, with liberal criticisms of the
president for his course. President
Roosevelt was attacked by Senator
Morgan for failure to select the
Nicaragua canal route and for recog-
iZing Panama. War with Colombia
was predicted as a result. Senator
Hale in his speech on the Newlands'
dicted that Canada will unite with
the United States. Before adjourn
ment the senate agreed to vote on
the Cuban bill December 16.
