In discussing the cotton situation,
the New York Evening Post asserts
that 1.-THE planter has grown rich, but
at the expense of the cotton broker
the millowner." If turn-about is
fair play the brokers and the millmen
should not grumble-they have been
waxing fat and rich at the expense of
the planters 10 these many years.
However, it is not true that the
planters have gotten rich this year
the high mark in the price of cotton
did not come in time to make them
rich, it simply saved them from de-
struction by permitting them to sell
the remnant of their crop at top prices.
The middle-men and the specula-
tors are the fellows who have grown
rich because of the advance in the
price OF the tleecy staple jackson

Here Is = specimen of intensive
farming worthy OF the attention OF all
agriculturists. On place just four
miles west of Magnolia, small field
containing less than II acres, has pro-
duced no less than 5000 pounds OF
seed cotton. Those who have seen
the field say the stalks are as high as
mans head, and one has to push the
branches aside to pass between the
rows. The land lies just below the
cow lot, and for several years the
owner has seen to it that the drainage
from the lot was uniformly distributed
over the land. The owner OF this re-
markable patch is Louis Guy, whom
everybody knows to be an honorable
man as we'll as a first-class farmer

4 Bs,6HT LITTLE BOY RAssEs AWAY.


The following from the Columbus
(Ga.) Ledger, OF January /, in refer
ence to the sad death OF little Warren
Gambler Copeland, will be read with
genuine regret by the people Of Gre
NADIA generally. as his parents were
much beloved here:
Mr.. aud Mrs. Theodore Copeland
have the deepest sympathy of their
many friends in the death OF their
bright little son, Warren Gambler
Copeland, which sad event occurred
at their home, corner Fifth avenue
and Eleventh street at one O'Clock
this moring.
The circumst ances attending the
death of the little fellow renders the
event doubly sad. Just before Christ
mas, the child was painfully burned
while playing in the yard at St. Luke
parsonage. The child received every
attention and while he suffered great
pain, it was not thought that his in
jurieS would prove fatal. He did not
rest we'll, but the burns appeared to
begin tn heal and yesterday afternoon
and last night, the condition OF the
patient was thought to be improving.
About nine O'Clock, howevery, symp-
toms OF congestion began to develop
and despite the best medical atten-
tion and every care, the bright little
boy grew rapidly worse and at one
O'Clock this morning, quietly passed
away. Mr.. and Mrs. Copeland, with
a few friends, remained at the beside
of the little sufferer until the last.
They are overcome with grief over
taking off of their promising child in
| whom many fond hopes were centered.
The child had been name after Bish-
op Gambler, who is a great favorite
! with the family and its parents had
hoped that the little one would live
to follow the footsteps Of the illus
triouS divine in whose honor he had
been named.
While Mr.. and Mrs. Copeland have
been in Columbus only short time,
they have endeared themselves to a
great many people here, all OF whom
feel for them deeply in the hour of
their sad bereavement.
It requires all of the foritude and
Christirn resignation Mr.. Copeland
and the sorrowing mother can come
and bear up under this terrible and
| unexpected blow.
The funeral will occur from the
parsonage, corner Fifth avenue and
Eleventh street at ten O'Clock tomor-
row morning. The sad services will be
conducted by Rev. G. G.. MacDonell
and the interment will take place at
DnwoOd cemetery.

ance at the big educational rally and
conference to be held in jackson on
Friday and Saturday, Jan. IA and Is,
the main object OF which is to draft q
memorial address to the Legislature

the state. The school teachers OF
Mississippi are especially anxious for
the Legislature to make an appropri-
alton for the establishment of a state
normal and traing school for tachers
to be located at some central point in
the state, and it is estimated that
the cost of such an institution would
be not less than $500 For the
last three years the agitation has
been in progress, backed by the Miss
issippi State Teachers Associations,
and the leading educators believe
that the time is now ripe for legisla-
tive agitation.
Various other educational subjects
will be discussed at the conference,
especially matters pertaining to the
improvement Of the rural schools. 1t
is expected that several hundred tea.
chers will be in attendance, and low
rates will be granted by all OF the

Bad Negroes and Whites.

Somebody always is leading the
American negro into follies and ex
travagances harmful 10 himself. 1t is
hard to imagine anything that would
injure the negroes as II race more than
the movement in which they are said
to have engaged in New York to help
the mulatto woman, Hannah Elias Che
whole case in which she is involved is
one OF the most disgusting, degrading
and tragic in the history of the country.
A rich old white man had become in
fatuated with her and she deliberately
blackmailed and bled him, working on
! his senile fears ana fondness. until she
had made him give her nearly $780,
600, large part OF which she seems TO
have spent in dissolue extravaganza
and with gang OF low negroes and
lower white people which gathered
around her. Meanwhile her black
husband, made desperate, perhaps, by
her refusal to share with him her i'll
gotten gain. his crazed brain filled with
all kinds of muddled ideas, deliberately
shot and killed Andrew H. Green. one
of the most venerable AMI useful
citizens of the city, installing him for
the woman's victim and his rival.
This woman was not the victim OF
love or passion or weakness or power
ty. She is a vulgar, cheap and cold
| blooded outcast who used the degra-
dalton and weakness OF an old man 10
rob him cruelty and deliberately. The
business was as discreditable to one of
the parties as TO the other. but the
New York negroes have gone to work
to identify their race with vice of the
lowest and worst kind and with con-
spirasy to blackmail. Their friend.
President Roosevelt, or somebody else.

ideas OF propriety and sense. News

The Democratic Platform.

The platform agreed upon by the
Democratic committee:
1.-The delegates of the Democratic
party of Virginia in convention reas-
sembled reaffirmed their allegiance to
the great cardinal doctrines Of American
Democracy. We hold that all power
is vested in the people; that government
was instituted for their equal aud com
mon benefit, that any Legislation that
operates to Zurich some at the expense
of other classes is fundamentally wrong
and should haveno place in any system
of free government. The highest duty
OF government is to give equal protec-
ton to all and special favors to none
1t is we'll defined Democratic doctrine
and one peculiarly essentia:: to the well
fare and happiness of the country that
all matters OF interstate and national
concern shall be controlled by the
federal government, and that all matters
OF State concern shall be controlled bv
the state. The Democratic partv
stands for honesty and economy in the
collection by just, equal laws OF only so
much OF the peoples money as may be
Required to defray the necessary ex-
penses of their government
The Republican party, in its admin
istration Of the federal government has
shamelessly trampled upon and violated
every one of these essential principals.
ave recognize the necessity for con-
centration of capital in order that the
means OF the people may be employed
in accordance with economic laws liz
developing the resources and promoting
the prosperity of the country, but insist
that the abuses that have become prev.
alent and widespread under Republican
rule shall be remedied by the Enactment
} by Congress of conservative but eff
cient laws for the just regulation of the
interstate public service corporations O
the country and the suppression OF al
unlawful combinations in restraint O
trade. We charge that the Republican
. party has failed To administer existing
avs against the illegal trusts from
i wilich it derives its campaign corrup
!, ton funds and upon which it is, in {
large measure, dependent 'foI its lease
iof power"

that shortly after they were behind

sistent with the action OF the State
Democratic gathering I'm declining to
instruct the delegates TO StLouis. Read
between the lines-apart from its re-
affirmation of cardinal historic De-
mocratic doctrine-it recognizes that
the paramount issue must be tariff re-
vision and the relations OF the tariff to
the trusts. Yet il leaves the details of
formulating the issue-of mapping out
the campaign-so as TO prevent any
violent wrench TO the business in
terests Of the country to the multitude
OF counsel in which there Is wisdom
and where they belong. Taken with the
aggregate OF State Democratic declara-
tons, it argues IA harmonious national
party assemblage, characterized none
the less by freedom and independence
of discussion and opportunities for
aborting all new light that makes for
the best interests OF the party and the
country. The platform might have
been more specific and ringing" but
we doubt whether it could have been
more in consonance with sound iudg-
ment and the requirements of the
situation. 1t involves no mistake,
binds the party's delegates to nothing
that will bar them from pushing the
State to the forefront in whatever
exigencies may arise, and keeps open
the way for them to ally themselves
with whatever movement or policy-in
the matter OF details developments
may Indicate point the surest road to
