The action of the North Carolina
cotton growers at their recent conven
ton in Raleigh shows that they mean
business and are in the fight against
low prices to stay. A splendid set of
officers and delegates to the big New
Orleans convention was chosen. The
national convention of cotton growers
will find the North Carolina brethren
have a plenty of tar on their heels as
well as sand in their craws. They can
count on the Tai Heels to stick in their
tracks when they take a position in the
interest of their people.

1T WAS BOUND TO CONE.

&As
We said it would come ord. Subse-
auent events show that We were cor
reel. The News and Observer opens
up Oh The Industrial News with nearly
a column editorial because OF that pa
per's advocacy of a change of schedule
whereby the midnight train on the
Southern road will leave Raleigh at II
O'Clock instead of lying over there IN
til about 2 O'Clock. The News and
Observer begins its editorial with this
paragraph:
Buffers Venezuela and South Da-
kota radical daily organ at Green's
boro, devoted one-nalf a column yes
terday in an editorial headed, "A MUS
ance-A Remedy to demanding OF
the corporation commission that IT
force the Southern railway to discon-
tinue a schedule of twenty years stand
ing in order to injure The News and
Observer. and deny the people Of
central, piedmont n western North
Carolina an unsubsidized democratic
paper from the state capital. It's sud-
den zeal has the same motive as h a
which prompted the zeal Of DemetriuS
and the other silvermiths in the wor-
ship Of Diana.
The News and Observer goes on to
say that if Buffers organ could eff
feet a change it would be done for no
other purpose than to injure The News
and Observer, thereby working a
great inconvenience every day to
something like three thousand people
living west of Raleigh" From the
above it will be seen that The News
and Observer has raised it's figures as
to the number of people living west
of Raleigh who would be inconven-
fenced through the change Of schedule
by not getting the paper as Don after
publication as they do by the present
Der 18th, wherein it opened fire on
The Times it placed the number Of per-
sons who would so suffer at ''over two
thousand"
While this fight is of no interest to
any II but the papers involved, it
gives outsiders some amusement i'll
watching its progress. Times are
pretty dull just at present. There is
nothing of interest going on in the
state except the fight in the republi-
can party owe the few offices. So the
people naturally turn to this newspa-
nor wa. q G a rnliaf from tho cto ornn4inn
in public matters and, no doubt, many
readers of the Raleigh and Green's
boro papers hope this one will not end
so abruptly as did the one The News
and Observer started over the same
subject matter with The Raleigh
Times. That wal of words was
brought to a startlingly sudden close
by al editorial in the latter paper,
and nothing more was heard Of this
schedule fight until the ''unsubsi-
died democratic paper from the state
capital" turned it's guns, which The
Times had temporarily silenced, On
Buffers Venezuela and South Dako-
ia organ at Greensboro"
The Messenger, from past expert
ence, a sympathize with The News
and Observer over any fear it NAV
have Of the prospects Of a schedule
which will delay the delivery Of it's
papers to a large number of subscribers
for twenty-four hours after publica-
ton. We had that disadvantage to
contend with for a long time and we
know what it means.

st. Petersburg, January 1.-THE

North Carolina shows up pretty well
among the southern states in the pro-
duction of the precious metals for last
year. She comes second in the pro-
duction of gold, South Carolina lead
ing; and also second in the number of
ounces of silver mined. But for the
mines for installing improved ma
chinery and for other repairs she
would no doubt have headed the list
in the production of this metal.

Our business people could send

advantageous to them and to the

Let Us Be Moving.

There is some complaint that
the large number of small stores
which are going up all over the
parish are proving of some injury
to the trade of the towns. There
is not the least doubt that these
small grocery stores in the parish
are of some injury to the trade of
the towns, and few if any of them
are of any benefit to country own
ers. In many instances they are
mere rendezvous where the neigh
bors meet aud spend their time at
card games, and at these games
they spend lots of their valuable
times during the week as well as
on Sundays. There must be a
reason for the springing up OF all
these small stores. The reasons,
we believe are, in the first place,
there are no more peddling carts
going over the country, the second,
is that the roads very often are so
bad that it is difficult to get to
town, and thu third is that the
people of the towns do not offer
attractions to the country people.
We understand fully that bad
crops will bring stagnation to
business, that things will not be
"a brisk and lively in years of
crop failure as they would be in
years of plenty and prosperity, but
it seems to us that display Of
some energy, some activity and
enterprise could do great deal in
improving matters and make the
people in general look at some
thing more bright and more hope
ful than to lament upon the disas-
tiers and misfortunes of the past. A
little recreation, a bit of pleasure,
sweet music and few cheerful
words 20 long way to brighten
the minds of the people and give
them courage for better times, and
all will profit by looking at things
in more hopeful manner.
Our country need more and bet
ter drainage, and if there was
some way of bringing our people
together to have them talk these
matters aud act collectively they
would soon be in position to car
ny out all plans that would tend to
improve their condition.
