The Cotton Situation.

The trouble with the cotton
manufacturers that is resulting In
lockouts, strikes and suffering at
milling centres, is the hesitation On
the part of the millers to ad
just their business to changes and
new condition; or IN other words,
their refusal to recognize existing
conditions as anything but ephe-
almer and spasmodic.
They are attempting to hold
down fabric to a scale founded
upon raw material at Sc. a DO und
and to do this are vainly battling
to hold the raw material down in
stead of advancing the price of
fabric Ordinarily they would
succeed, but for the last two years
they have found the cotton pro-
ducsrs entl enched behind fnll corn
cribs, generous smoke houses and
far cotton harvest, and better than
all, free from debt and enjoying
the fruit of diversified industry
to greater extent than their COM
peers anywhere else ;and with full
ability to control their crops with
accelerating strength and local re-
sources The indications are that
the farmers will take no backward
step, hence the only way to "break
the deadlock" and set all the
spindles to going with good wages
to operatives and good prices to
cotton producers, is to advance tie
the price cent yard on all kinds
of cotton fabric. This will not be
hardship on consumers, aud will
relieve cotton producers from the
burden incident te over cheapt end
fabrics. - Aberdeen Examiner.
