out here at the fair week meeting with
a state ticket with Joseph A. McCul-

Of the Baptist Press, edited at Green
wood by MIR. Bristow, he noninates
Mr.. Mccullough for governor and ad-
vocates putting out ticket. 1t is
significant that the editorial favors
county control of the question.

where it will not be enforced let it
not be farce" says the editorial.

Accurate Information Wanted.

Owing to the sensitive character Of
the cotton market the report empha-
sizes the Importance of accurate in
formation on the question, and adds:
"While there have been some re-
fusals in both sections of THE coun-
try to supply the data required by the
law, the information has as rule
been cheerfully and promptly given;
and when the totals are compared
with rhe figures of the commercial
movement 1T is evident that the re-
turns made to the bureau of the cen
sus have been remarkably accurate.
In those cases where manufacturers
refused to give the desired >inforrna-
ton, statistics for such establish1nen
received through reliable sources,
have been included in the totals of
this rport''
The report also says:
"Since the Inauguration of the GEN.
sus reports on cotton ginning, the
COTTON crop has been brought more
completely within the purview of the
statistical method than any other
farm commodity. The total produc-
ton OF each year is now known, with
in few thousand bales, as early as
the following March. The progress
of the crop can be traced, bale by
bale, 70 the mills, north and south,
and to the several foreign countries.
It will be a part of the purpose of
these reports to learn what proper
tion of their purchases the mills have
consumed and what the mills have on
hand at given dates. In time it is
hoped that this exact knowledge can
be extended so as to include foreign
countries. With this knowledge in
their possession the producer can
himself determine what is a fair price
for him to demand and the consumer
what is a safe price for him to pay"
The bulletin is the first to be pub
lshed on the subject under the Act
passed by congress last February

News and Courier.

Columbia, October I1.-Presldent
E. D. Smith, of the Cotton Growers
association, has just issued state
ent that will be OF general interest to
the cotton growers Of the state. He
argues that what cotton is now going
to market is to meet contracts and
that no cotton is being sold at pre-
vailing prices and that the spinners
cannot spin paper contracts, but have
to get the real cotton. He says:
ri have just returned from trip in
the up-country, having spoken at
Laurens and Gaffney. At tfe latter
place I met President Jordan, and he
and discussed the situation as it now
stands.
There is no cause for alarm on the
part of those who are holding cotton,
but rather everything to encourage
them. The entire situation may be
summed up thus: AS might have
expected, this being the debt paying
time, the heners, tenants and smaller
farmers were expected to sell their
cotton, together with quite number
of others who were in position to
hold if they would. The season for
gathering was so fine and the cotton
opened so rapidly that all of this cot
ton has been rushed to the market
and has created the idea that few, i: :
any, would regard the association min
irnum price On the ouher hand
large Der cent. of the crop already
picked and ginned is being held by
strong hands. They can afford to wait
and will wait until they feel that they
have been rewarded for all delay, ex-
pense and annoyance, and attempted
ridicule on the part of the opposition,
has been fully and amply paid tor.
II is my honest opinion that enough
cotton is being Gneld from the market
bv strong and determined men to put
the spinning world at their mercy
long before the prospect OF another
crop is in view 1t would not surprise
me if subsequent events do not prove
that it would have been wisdom on the
part of the bears to have given mini
mum prices for the entire crop rather
than be forced to pay for their oppo-
sition. for as they have taken advar1-
tage OF the weak by virtue of their po-
sition at this debt paying time, it is
verv probable that some of us will see
to it that restitution is made when the
advantage lies in our hands.
This week cotton has practically
all been marketed. but from now on
they may gamble as they please, but
whe en- they want spot cotton we Will
have Our price. Let no one be I'M
easy. for cheering news comes from
every state and we are bound to win.
