MIR. ID. Y. COOPER'S VIEWS.
He Talks interestingly About North
Carolina to Washington Post.

The Washington Post in it's Talks in
Hotel Hobbies of yesterday, has the
following:
Among North Cardinals noted
captains of industry none takes pre-
cedence of that popular citizen of
Henderson, Mr.. ID. Y. Cooper, who
was al the Raleigh for a brief space
yesterday. Mr.. Cooper is in the bank
ing business, and is largely interested
in the manufacture of cotton. Being
asked for an expression OF his views
on local conditions. he said:
I'll is hardly in the nature of news
to state that North Carolina is better
off financially, commercially and in
dustrially than was ever known prior
to this day. The deposits in the
banks are heavier than ever before;
the farmers are wanting shorter
credits, and by q wise diversification
of crops are getting revenue from
several sources, instead of one, as in
the past. Politically, too, | think our
section shows great Improvement,
since now a great majority of our
people agree that the best money of
the world is none too good for the
use of Americans.
THE cotton situation at present is
quiet from the manufacturing point of
view. This is a season when the mills
are deVoting a good deal of time to
repairs and improvements, and more
over, the disparity between the price
of manufactured goods and of the raw
material tends to lessen factory ac-
tivity. The price of cotton has been
abnormally high and we may look for
q big swing of the pendulum in the
other direction. 1t is to be hoped, in
the interest of the great planting pop
ulation of the South, that the extreme
low prices of a few years ago may
not again be seen, for five cent cotton
is a great calamity over a wide area
of country. For this reason it will
inure to the benefit of the South if a
1O,000,U00, or at the most a 11,000,-
900 ale crop should be produced. At
nine cents pound the Southern
farmer can grow cotton and live in
ease and comfort. but if he expects
to get next season Il price much in
excess of this he is apt to be cherish
ing q delusion.''
