Conditions Have Changed.

Conditions have changed in
relation to the farmer. No long
err is he segregated from his fell
lows. He is not now in a con-
dition Of ~irremediable lonliness
and isolation. With the advent
of the interurban trolly car, the
telephone and the rural mail de-
livery the entire condition of his
existence has changed. Today
the farmer has his daily news
paper, his added facilities for
correspondence and his telephone
that brings him within speaking
distance of his neighbors and the
great outside world. The nature
of the farmer has changed with
the changed conditions that
surround him. He has become
a business man who is in con-
slant touch with his markets and
is we'll versed in the varying
circumstances of trade in the
commodities that he produces.
The man with the hoe has trium-
phed at last. He has come into
his own. Kansas City Journal.

be their report of their acreage
devoted to cotton, and its month

If the purpose Of the organiza-
ton is carried out every county

and be able to report to an acre,

they are not reported correctly
the officers haven't done their
duty and the organization is a
failure. Much more depends on
the cotton associations first, or
acurate report, than the produc-
ers are aware Of, and if much Of
a mistake is proven, the organi-

the other hand if it is correct, its
future reports will be Of great

cannot vouch for it's correctness

was circulated at the Louisville

the question of the author was in
doubt but the Journal was pre-
pared to credit the poem to the
real author, Maj. S. A. Jonas,
the distinguished editor Of the
Aberdeen Examiner. Maj. Jonas
was a brave Confederate soldier
and experienced all the vicis-
STUDIES of the late war and was
therefore fully able to depict

Mr.. DIN II. Lumpkin

This good man and splendid
citizen breathed his last at an
early hour Wednesday morning
at the home of his sonin-law,
Mr.. A. H. Pegues in this city.
The deceased was a native Mis-
sissippian, having been born and
reared in Marshall county where
he resided until a few years ago
when he came to Columbus.
For nearly a year he has been
in very bad health but had been
confined to his bed only about
two weeks prior to his death.
Mr.. Lumpkin was sixty two
years old and he leaves four sons
and four daughters besides hosts
of warm friends to mourn his
departure from the walks of this
life. For many years Mr.. Lump
kin was a devout christian and
he lived that life taught by the
lowly Nazarine. He was a prom
inent Mason and that organiza-
ton officiated at his burial.
The funeral services were con-
Quoted from the residence of
Mr.. Pegues at 400 o'clock We'd

preceded him about ten months
ago. The family of the bereaved
have the sympathy Of all in their
sorrow. -Columbus Commercial.

TO INDUCE IMMIGRATION.

1t is reported that the Illinois
Central railroad has agents in
Norway and Sweden for the
purpose of inducing immigrants
from those countries to move
to the southern states. The i'm
migrants which have heretofore
settled in this section from Nor
way and Sweden have been the
best class of foreigners to locate
amongts Jus. Injured to hard la
Dor from early childhood, possess
ed of aruddy constitution, sober,
energetic and moral, they soon
secure a foothold and begin to
improve their condition. AS far
mers and gardeners they are an
improvement on any thing we
have except the native whites.
AS laborers they are superior to
our own people from the fact
they have been bred to toll early
and late. The days in both coun-
tries, from the extreme north
ern location, are long, and the
climate sufficiently temperate to
permit of constant work during
the summer season. With the
training and habits of their ma
tive country a Swede or Norwe-
igan from the first is a desirable
laborer. The step taken by the
/. c.. is one that has not been
made too soon. There seems to
be two jobs for every man and
we need recruits in the various
fields of industry that are open
ing up in the south. We need
people whose heads are not turned
when they have a dollar or two
in their pockets to rattle and
will not strike a lick of work
until the last cent is gone. We
need a laborer who is reliable,
truthful moral and sober to take
the place of the idling, slovenly,
crap-shooting darkey who is
growing more worthless every
day. The times do not suit him
neither does he suit the times.
His head is not level enough to
stand the prosperity we are now
enjoying, reaping for himself
and his family a competency
from his labor and the pleasure
and enjoyment of a comfortable
home.

Cotton Advances A Cent.

The report issued by the Gov
ernment on Monday morning
brought a sharp advance on all
cotton markets during the day
and an advance of one cent
a pound was registered. The
selling of futures on the New
Orleans market showed an adj
vance of 104 points or SIS. 40 per
bale for October delivery. The
general average condition Of the
crop as reported by the govern
ment was 77.2, the'lowest general
average July report with one ex-
ception, that Of 1900, ever made.
With an acreage of Is, 421, 600 in
1900 there were raised 10, 1888, 422
bales. The ten year average is
84.6. According to the report is
sued by the Southern Cotton As
ISOLATION the acreage for 1905 is
25, $50, 951. The government es
innate is about z per cent greater.
With this acreage and the very
unsatisfactory condition of the
crop it is hardly to be supposed
that the crop of this year will ex-
coed that of 1900. The weather
has been unfavorable during the
entire season in some of the states
and only by the hardest work and
at great expense has the crop
been worked to its present stage.
Rain continues over a large por-
ton of the cotton belt and the
plant has shown but little i'm
provement for the past ten days.
With this prospect for a crop the
advance of Monday is but natural.
Where the price will go is only a
matter of speculation but twelve
cents is predicted by some who
have studied the situation closely.

back Of the Confederate note.
The poems full of patriotic fervor
and devotion to a cause that was
lost and appeals strongly to all
whose sympathies were with
the brave men composing the
Southern Confedercy. Why the
author Of the poem is not gen

not understand. Maj. Jonas
wrote it and no one else has ever
had the temerity to lay claim to
the authorship.

Cotton Condition

The New Orleans Times DEM
ocrat summarizes the condition
of the cotton crop in it's report OF
July the 3rd as follows:
The Tines Democrat herewith
presents the report of it's cor
respondents on the history of the
cotton-crop during the month OF
June. The consensus of opinion
is to the following effect: .
/. There has been a very mod
crate improvement, taking the
Belt as a whole, though many Sec
tons record a distinct deteriora-
ton.
2. Some small part of the original
acreage has been abandoned, be
cause of excessive rainfall and
scarcity of labor.
3. The bool-weevil has made Its
appearance in Texas, but no trust
worthy forecast Of the prospective
damage can now be made.
a. The crop was very late and
recent rains have accentuated
this feature of the case.
5. On the average, the situation
is hardly less critical than it was
at the end of May. Perfect mete-
geological conditions and a late
frost will be needed to avert a
disaster.
