Rev Mr. Ross at the Sandy Hook
church, last Sunday, gave touching
Memorial sermon for the late Christian
w. Beehler, who died on ThankSgiv-
ing day. At the close of the service
the congregation sang the hymn, "Je-
sus, Lover of My Soul," which was
sung by Mr. Beehler few days before
his death and which was his last song
on earth. He will be much missed at
the church services where his atten-
tive listening and appreciation of eve
ny part Of the services was an inspira
ton to those who knew him. Mr. Ross
text was the familiar verse, "Let me
die the death of the righteous and let
my last end be like his" He empha-
sized the fact that if we would die the
death of the righteous we must also
live the life of the righteous.

A PROSPEROUS ERA DAwNINe.

Despite incessant rains and the
presence of the boil weevil and the
destructive caterpillar in many sections
of the cotton belt, the prospect for a
very good crop is still bright, and it
would seem that prosperous era is
dawning. Tt requires 10000, 900 bales
of American cotton to keep the wheels
of the worlds factories gong, No
other country but this can supply
American cotton. Therefore factories
must patronlze American cotton grow
ers or go out of business. Then the
question IS, who shall price the farm
ers' cotton, the man who grows it, on
the man who wants to buy it? Every
body knows who ought to price it, but
who will price it? That's the impor-
tant question. With proper under
standing with each other the farmers
could be the most independent people
in the world. There is no reason why
people who never raised bale of cot
ton should make. more money out of
the cotton crop than those who furnish
them with the cotton. IF there are any
corners in the market the farmers ought
to be the ones to do the cornering.
| The south should be the section this
season to get the money out of the cot
ton crop, and if the farmers will only
keep posted there is no reason why
this section should not be the most
prosperous anywhere. Farmers possess
more power, political and economical,
than any other class; but don't exercise
their power, but let stock gamblers
and exchange sharpers get away with
the spoils of the battle of life. Let
them look to their interests in the
marketing and sale of the valuable
crop now maturing.
