vote was polled. It is calculated to
create the impression that the people
do not take as much interest in public
affairs as they ought to do-that they
are willing to entrust the elections and
the management of their state and
municipal governments to the few
men who make a business out of poll
tics. If this impression were a correct
one there would be reason for fearing
for the future of this state. Still, it
will hardly be denied that the healthi-

vail in public affairs where there is no

HOW TO MAKE THE SOUTH RICH

HOW TO MAKE THE SOUTH RICH.
The South is richer now and more
prosperous than at any other time in
her history. With cotton at 10 cents
a pound she would, I'm a very few years.
be the wealthiest section of the coun-
try, if there was no such thing as
gambling in cotton. Her wealth would
be more evenly distributed than that
of any other section, because the great
er part of it would be in the hands of
the farmers and the country storekeep-
ers. Gambling in cotton, however,
drains her of large part of her wealth.
All over the cotton states there are
agencies for dealing in cotton futures.
There is plenty of evidence that they
are well patronized and that they reap
a rich harvest. Many millions of dol
lars annually go to enrich cotton flu
ture brokers and fill the pockets of
the big cotton spectators in New
York.
There are probably ten times as many
banks in the South now as there
were score Of years ago. and they
have almost enough money to move
the cotton crop. Only a little has to
be borrowed from New York, and that
at the beginning of the season. In two
or three years more the South will not
have to borrow from New York at the
beginning of the cotton season, or at
any other time. She wouldn't have to
do that now If her people hadn't vast
ed so much gambling in cotton futures.
It is a pity they cannot see there is
nothing in cotton gambling for them.
Their efforts to get rich quick in that
way haven't been successful and never
will be. The way for them to get rich
the sure way--is to invest their mon
ey at home. The resources of the
South are only beginning to be de-
veloued.
If the Southern people had put into
cotton mills the money they have lost
in cotton gambling the South would
now be in a position to manufacture
into cotton fabrics the greater part of
her cotton crop. She would be in the
enjoyment of an immense income from
her cotton manufacturing industry.
OF course now and then Southern
spectators in cotton win something,
but, as a rule. they lose their win
nings. There is no permanent wealth
in cotton gambling for men of limited
means. The sooner the Southern peo-
pie realize this the better it will be for
them and the South. If they want TO
be rich. let them invest their money in
Southern farms, factories and rail-
roads. With cotton bringing 10 cents
pound they will soon be rich beyond
their expectations If they will adopt
this policy.

GETTING HIS REWARD.

In this campaign the Republicans
are claiming all the credit for main
tanning the gold standard against the
assaults Of the silverites. Judging
from what the President says in his
letter of acceptance, and what the
Republican organs and spellbinders are
saying. the Republican leaders and the
Republican party were never afflicted
with the silver craze. 1t is strange
that so many men. otherwise honor
able, have so little regard for truth in
political matters.
There is now and then a Republican,
however, who can rise above partisan
feeling and tell the truth in regard to
public questions.
In our New York dispatches yester-
day Congressman e. T. Hill of Con-
necticut, a Republican, in a speech in
that city at a meeting of the CONNER
cial Travellers League was quoted as
saying: This nation owes an over
lasting debt of gratitude to Grover
Cleveland for putting through the re-
peal of the silver purchase act, and the
mere fact that it was carried by Re
publican votes ought not to detract one
iota from his credit. for it was an adj
ministration measure"
Another Republican, Congressman
Mccall of Massachusetts, in an article
in the October number of the Atlantic
Monthly, presenting his views on some
aspects Of the pending political cam
paign, says that Mr. Cleveland saved
the gold standard" and he practically
admits that Mr.. Cleveland will go in
history as one of the country's great
Presidents.
Few Presidents have been so villlf1ed
as Mr.. Cleveland. but there is no doubt
that he will be given the place in
history to which he is entitled. He
did what he thought was for the best
interests of the country regardless of
the effect his acts might have upon
his political fortunes. Those who
did the most to discredit him with the
people, when he was at the head of
the government, are now willing to adj
init they did him a great wrong. 1t
doesn't matter much, however, what
they are willing to admit. They are
comparatively, if not wholly, unknown,
while Mr.. Cleveland is stronger with
the people than he ever was.

IF. c. BROSIUS
TO BUILD BRICK

DR.. f. G. Brosius will erect two story
brick on his quater block on the north
west corner OF Oak and Second streets.
Plans for the building have not been
prepared yet, and the doctor is unable
to give anything for publication as to
the size and cost Of the proposed struc-
ture.
The building he says will be two
stories with a basement. It is under
stood that the basement will contain a
furnace for heating oil parts Of the build
ing. Hot and cold water with sanitary
plumbing will be placed in all parts Of
the building.
The tenants in the stores and Offices
on the Brosius property have been given
notification to look for temporary quaters
while the brick is in course OF conctruc-
ton. 1t is the Doctors intention to be-
gin work on the structure as soon as
possible, with the expectation of having
the buildings completed about the first
Of next year.

Fine Farm for Truck Garden

The farm OF A. l.. Phelps two miles
southwest OF the city on Indian creek is
one OF the best places in the valley for
truck garden, The land is a heavy rich
muck that would grow tons OF vegeta-

The land, about seven acres of the
creek bottom, is now planted to clover
and the stand of hay is very heavy
Among the clover are apple trees that
appear TO he doing well, notwithstand
ing the abundance of moisture in the
ground.
Mr.. Phelps has about l2 or l3 acres in
his farm. Some OF 1t is situated on the
hillside with a south slope that produces
some of the very early berries of the
valley, At present all the land is not
covered with irrigating water, but there
are springs on the place supplying about
30 inches OF water, which, by the use oi
a hydraulic ram could be easily placed
