salary of any individual in the United

drawn an annual salary of $3.50, 900.
The only other salary drawn by a
lawyer which can compare with this
is that of Francis Lynde Stetson,
who receives an annual retainer OF
$4,000 from j. P. Morgan S Co,
This retainer is given simply for the
purpose of allowing Mr.. Morgan to
have the first call upon the services
of Mr.. Stetson. Whenever he is
consulted he receives an extra fee.

According to figures published by
the American Agriculturist the value
of the farm crops of the country, at
the farms, in 1904, was So, ,27S, 1000, 900,
while in 1896 it was only 81, 1920, 0,O0O,-
600. The remarkable feature of
this showing is that the production
has increased in quality very little in
the past ten years, SO far as the
staple crops are concerned, except in
the one item of cotton, yet the value
has almost doubled in that time.

no difficulty in interesting the high
government authorities and the man.
ufacturers in consideration of ways
and means by which the laudable
object in view may have reasonable
hope of attainment. The Presidents
friends have been very persistent in
their assurance of Mr. Roosevelt's
deep friendship fcr the South and
her material interests, aSd it may be
that he will seize this opportunity to
give practical demonstration of his
desire to forward interests 80 bound
up with her welfare, particularly
when the successful promotion of
those interests must have a marked
effect upon the prosperity of the
whole country.
Senator McLaurin laid great stress
upon the practically undeveloped
fields in the Orient for the explcita-
tion of our cotton products. There,
however, lie not the only opportuni.
ties for new markets, and he directed
attention to sections nearer our doors,
in the States of South America,
where large trade might be built IN
with little difficulty. Under Mr..
Blaine's reciprocity treaties, it has
been shown, we were rapidly occupy
ing South American markets, espec.
tally with iron and steel products,
losing this trade later by the aban-
donmeAt of that policy. Congress
has recently made an appropriation
Of $i25,GG1 in the interest of the re-
covery of our lost prestige in these
markets, and former Assistant Post.
master General Rristow has been
named as the head of commission n
having this object in view. Also,
the other day, $4,000 was appropri-
ated to buy and send free our dairy
products into certain sections in the
hope of developing a demand for
them. The time seems propitious,
therefore, when we are about to in
crease our energies for foreign trade,
for visit of the representatives of
the greatest export crop in the United
States to the National Congress to
interest the President and the Con-
gress in consideration of methods
by which our trade in tho products
of this great staple may be enlarged
and benefits thereby bestowed upon
millions of our people.
Enlarged foreign markets offer the
true and permanent solution of the
cotton problem, and if the McLaurin
resolution shall serve to provide
them, the South will have reason for
generations to come to hold in CRATE
full memory the Southern Interstate
Cotton Convention.
