Tribute Of Respect.

Whereas, in the supreme wisdom of
the Great Architect of the universe, it
seemed good to Him to remove by death
on the 10Th July A. l.. 5005 our beloved
brother, Rev. II. l.. Rogers, from the
duties of the lodge on earth to the
higher duties of the Supreme Lodge on
high; therefore, be it resolved
l. That in the death of Brother Rogers
Blue Ridge Lodge, No. 02 A. f. NJ, has
sustained the loss of jealous, active
and useful fellow member; the Church
of Christ devoted member and faithful
minister; the State patriotic citizen;
the world at large good man, and the
Craft of Ancient Free Masonry true
and loyal brother.
2. That we cherish in our memories
the zeal, devotion and loyalty of our
deceased brother to the principles of
our Order, the Cody and consistent
Christian life that he lived and we feel
chat in his death he was "a conqueror
and more than a conqueror through Him
that loved us, and gave himself for u.s."
3. That we bow our heads in sorrow at
his death and tender to his widow and
two little fatherless children our fra
ternal coincidence and sympathy, and
assure them that it will be our duty as
also our pleasure to extend them our
fraternal assistance in every time of need.
4. That blank page in our minute
book be inscribed to his memory, our
hall draped in mourning for 30 days; that
these resolutions be duly recorded and "a
copy of same furnished to his widow and
our local papers for publication.
Respectfully submitted in behalf of
the Lodge. S. p. Dendy,
w. o. White,
Il. s. Jones,
Committee.

FARMERS MUST DEMAND PRICE.
E. o. Smith Tells South Carolina Planters
to be Firm--"Hold II for n Cents"

Columbia, September. 11.--President
X. ID. smith of the Cotton Growers As
sOoiation has given this card to the press
for publication:
In order to get thoroughly informed as
to the spirit of the people of South Caro-
| liua In reference to the actual Southern
Cotton Association, call upon every
county association to meet on Monday
next. the 18th, for the purpose of getting
an expression of opinion from the mem-
bers of every association in their county,
first, as to the ratification of the action
of, the convention as to the minimum
price, and second to devise means of
mutual assistance in carrying out the
aim aud purposes of the Southern Cot
sity is now that the Southern Cotton
Association has fixed it's minimum price
at Asheville, N. O., the undoubted small
crop, the financial condition of the Sonth
and ab"se all the possibility of the
Southern cotton grower being able to
dictate his own price, is prize worth
striving for, because it means personal
independence, manhood and wealth.
Therefore, at this crisis beg every
county in the association to meet, as
above indicated, and see that report
both as to the spirit attending these
meetings, the opinion of those attending
as to the price of cotton as to the out
look of yield, and what means, if any,
have been brought upon to withhold the
cotton from the market until our mini
mum of IL certs is obtained, these
reports to be forwarded to the central
Office.
1t matters not now whether it was
wise or unwise to set the minimum indi-
Gated. There is but one thing left to do
and we can do it, and that is to stand by
the convention at Asheville, and demand
III cents. 1t is useless for me to call at
tention to the fact that with the 11,O0O,-
GOO bale crop, by our loyalty. determine
tion and manhood we will win it. Vari-
GUS things will be brought to bear than
are being brought to bear now and the
fight for the next thirty days, perhaps
longer, will be the bitterest ever waged
in the South. If, however, the bankers,
merchants, in fact all parties interested
in Southern welfare, which means in the
Southern cotton crop, will see that the
weak are assisted by the strong, we will
win this fight as we won the other and
be rewarded by much higher price
than IL cents for our work. This letter
is dictated hurriediy on my way through
Columbia, to meet the cotton growers at
Bennettsville. When | have leisure,
which Ihope to have in few days, / shall
give to the public the work that was
done and proposed TO be done at Ashe-
vile.
Let all the counties meet as l have
asked above, aud send to this Office a
report of the spirit of the people as to
the prospects of their holding their cot
ton and the means they propose to put
into operation to reach the end desired.
Already telegrams and letters from the
West indicate that they are hauling their
cotton back home and storing it away
and waiting for IL cents. Il. D. Smith.

miles. Thecat could have travelled
the distance, but how did it know

that q man should be arrested in

a crust of bread which he picked
from the gutter. But he was q
professional beggar, and his little

"The increase Of $4,000 in the north
ern part Of the state includes births
which will amount: in the five-year
E period to sbou 10 R cent oHer Of o tRe
l SosS ane aboSt 1900 people who have
lived in that part Of the state five
years or less. No definite information
can be secured as to this shift of popu-
lation There are about $4,000 people
in that part of the state who have lived
there Ave years or less and who were
not born there, nor did they come into
the state from other states or terri
tories or from foreign countries. This
increase came from other parts Of the
state, presumably many thousands from
the southern part of the state.
cit is not alone in the northern
counties of the state where there has
been an influx of settlers from outside
Of the state, for this element of new
settlers can be found in every county
in the state, even in counties which
have decreased in population. In
Dodge county, which has decreased
nearly six hundred in the last five
years, over three hundred new settlers
e eaSst1 me eSeas into 81 that hat Ph Of Roq
last Ave years. From this it seems
quite clear that the newer counties Of

another. in every nook and corner il
