but that the place was set on f:e by
negroes. o. Saturday afternoon Mrs.

went to the scene OF the fire on Mon.
day and arrested Vandy Oheeseboro
and another negro by the name OF j as.
Lewis, and Lodged them In jail.
Lewis has admitted enough to make
ie certain that him and Oheeseboro set
the fire. Such characters richly de-

be convicted and strung up. MI Ed

sincere regret and earnestly prayed
that Gods blessing would be upon

God be with you Gill we meet again"
was sung by the congregation. l.
was solemn hour. There was hard
ly dry eye in the congregation, so
intenss was the feeling. Dr.. Clifton
Is very much beloved by his congregs'

COTTON STILL KING.
High Price of tho Staple Makes The
South Prosperous.

South Prosperous.
Cotton, unlike the Car, is seated
on staple throne. The good old
Southern monarch, despite all etforts
of Speculation and market gamblers to
the contrary, holds p Warful sway
thrcu shou5 the world. The govern.
rnenu report Of last Tu 3sday c0ncern.
ing the present crop tends only to the
support OF the cntton market. AS
this crop, on account of the dry fall,
has baen completely harvested, the
estimate this time becomes almost an
ac1ual statement as to the number OF
bales made. The report puts the
number at 10, 167 Sl8. AS these fig
ures are considerably below the worlds
consl m otion of Gotten TIE surplus OF
last year can easily be taken up with
out re ducing the price Of the staple at
all.
Cotton that is being held must IN
the face of this report become
more valuable than it is at present
and as much of the holdings Is s5ill IN
the hands of the farmer the prospects
are that there will be good times IN
Dixie during the next twelve months.
Bu5 there is more significance IN
this small crop Of cotton than that
which attaches to the present year.
With only ten million bales, as stated
before, the surplus Of the great 1904
crop will have to be used to meet con,
suuption, and this will start the 1909
crop with a clean sheet. There Will
he none, or very little, residue from
former crops to bear down i.s price.
Taken all in all the conditions fol
prosperity IN the South are altogether
cheerrkl and the people have but tt
use energy and judgment to GRASP
success.-Charleston Post.
