WAREHOUSES; FOR COTTON.

AURELIAN, SPRINGS, n. C.,@Sept. II.
Editor THE CcMMoNWEALrH The
minimum price OF cotton has been
fixed at 10 cents. This is lower than
the real cost of production, taking ID
consideration the high price Of guano,
labor and supplies, and the short crop
all combined. Now, the most lmpor-
tant matter is to arrange for storing
and holding the cotton. Unless this
is done nothing will be accomplished
by the Southern Cotton Association
Let the speakers at our rally days for
mulate some plan by which the cotton
farmers Can store ard get advances on
their cotton. This should be done
immediately so as to keep the early
cotton off the market.
We should have warehouses at Scot
Land Neck, Enfield, Weldon and Little
ton. NOW is the time to do this
work. -
Yours very truly,
w. T. JENKINS.

active Interest in it and the people Of

supporters.
AS wes published in these columns
two weeks ago, the camp has enthusl-
astically taken up the question OF In
creasing the pension OF the Confeder-
ate veterans, and ct the regular meet
Ing, September 9Th, the resolutions
concerning such increase, already pub
lished in The COMMONWEALTH, were
discussed. Nj. ". i. Butjerworth,
commander Of tho camp, made re-
marks, showing the difference between
TIE appropriations by North Carolina

State, ne SAID, a.,ycogsi2tes less than
any other Southagn State, except
Florida. Mr. Butterworth strongly ad-
yocated increase IL the pension by the
next Legislature.
Major J. B. Neal and Mr.. A. P.
Kltchin, the Democratic nominees for
the next Legislature, had been invited
to address the camp. Major Neal was
sick and unable to be present, but sent
message that he will do all he can for
the Confederate soldiers.
Mr.. Kitchin addressed the camp,
and said that he was proud he is the
son of a Confederate soldier and that
be was proud of the "Buck kitchin"
Camp. He then discussed the subject
OF pensions and said that he was in
| favor OF increasing the appropriations
| for the Confederate veterans OF this
State, and would take pleasure ir pre-
senting any resolution to the next
Legislature which this camp may wish,
and would speak and vote for it should
he be memb Der Ct that body
| The camp appropriated Plu.UU Tor a
memorial window in the cid Bianford
Church near Petersburg, where were
buried 10000 Confederate Soldiers, a
majority OF whom were North. Caro-
linians. Other camps in the State, it
is thought, will appropriate enough to
raise the amount to 100000. IT,, Z.
The "Buck Kltchin" Camp meets
regularly the first Thursday IN every

IfR. BRYAN'S VISIT TO NORTH
CAROLINA.

The visit of Hon. William Jennings
Bryan to North Carolina this week en-
pnaslzes the good feeling that exists
amongst our people for him. This is
TIE fourth time he has visited the
State, and 1t seems that his popularity
grows with every visit; and while
many OF the people do not agree with
him in all his ideas and public utter
ances, they believei in his ability, YER
satility and honesty.
The great Nebraskan was given an
ovation in Raleigh Monday, which
continued as long as be remained in
the State-from Raleigh to G1eensbo-
70, where he spent the night, then to
Winston and back to Charlotte, where
he spent Tuesday night. At all those
points he met great throngs of people
and at short stops along the way he
addressed the thousands who thronged
The stations 10 see him and hear him a
few moments.
His addresses at the various places
were in his usual strong and vigorous
style and be captured his audience at
every place and left North Carolina
perhaps more popular than he has ever
been before.
OF course it goes without saying
that Mr.. Bryan is a candidate tor the
presidential nomination by the Dem
ocratlc party in 1908, and it is as Ger
tainly true also that the people will
not have to do any guessing abou
what he believes. If nominated by
the Democratic party it will be with {
full knowledge of his views, for he il
free to express them and in the mos
positive terms always.
Mr.. Bryan Is easily one OF the read
lest and most versatile men in th
country, if not in the world.
