ORGANIZATION IS NEEDED.

We were not present at the
Cotton Association meeting, anc
are not in a position to discuss
fully the plans proposed to gel
in operation standard ware
house. but on general principles
we approve of centralizing oul
market facilities as much as
possible, and the only way 1t can
be done is through the ware
house system. 49,
cotton crop Of this year WI Il
bring a high price. but regret !: TO
say a very large portion OF tnls
cron has already been bought
no bv the spectators, who have
niaced this cotton at the mills,
and by doing so, are furnishing
the mills with raw material SO
they may not be affected by the
holdings of cottonin warehouses;
Our farmers, as rule, regard
ten cents an excellent price Tor
the feecy staple. it is not: ten
cents at this time. is no more
than seven cents was five years
ago, if it is as much. The pres;
ent cost Of labor, of living and
of material is not beng consld,
cred by those who are begulled5
into signing contracts to sell
October cotton for ten cents. we
regard it a misfortune that 50
many farmers are caught by the
glittering bait. If we had the
warehouses properly financed
these spectators would not nave
such an open field to ply then
wiles upon the cotton ralsers,
4 warehouse will do no good il
there is no cooperation, there
must be a system of warehouses
with a managing head, so thai
the banks of the country VII
have confidence in them, anc
give them financial support.
The fact of so many buyer:
having their agents in the tielc
to make contracts with farmers
for the future delivery Of cotton
ought to be an indication thai
there will be no cheap cotton
this year. There is no surplus
now, the mills are running with
scant material, and Will barely
have enough to carry then
through until the new crop; thf
reports from Texas and the
other Southwestern States lnol
cate very short crop, theretorff
we look for prices far above
anything we have obtained II
many a&Es, and unless there Is
q more SYSTEMATIC manner o.
marketing. or a more sincere co
operation 5hei high prices tol

We understand that in arecent
sermon preached in one of the
local churches, the minister
while on the subject of Sabbath
breaking, took occasion to al.
lude to the Isle of Palms. and
charged that gambling was car
ried on at that place on the Sab.
bath. We know this minister
would not purposely misrepre.
sent anybody or anything. and
would be glad to be corrected
when in error. The Isle OF
Palms is a pleasure resort, peo.
pie do not go there as they would
to a prayer meeting, they go
there to enjoy themselves, and
this they can do. and observe the
Sabbath as we'll as at home The
management of this famous
pleasure resort realizing tina,
there are many patrons who OBJ
ject to gambling, issued an order
at the opening of this season for.
bidding games of chance, either
on Sundays or any other day,
and this order is being strictly
carried out. There is no gamb-
ling going on this season at the
Isle of Palms unless it be in the
private rooms of the guests at
the hotel, over which there is no
control, at least it is not done
with the knowledge or consent
of Messrs. Riddock & Byrns, the
proprietors. Previous to this
season the Isle of Palms, not
unlike all other seaside resorts,
catered to all classes including
the sporting element. but out of
regard for the many who do not
approve of that character Of
of strenuosity, removed the OBJ
jectional features: SO that the
people throughout the State
may have nothing to prevent
them from visiting the finest
seaside resort in the South.

The members of the State
Press Association had a royal
time at the Isle Of Palms last
week. It was one Of the most
successful meetings the associa-
tion has ever had. The people
Of Charleston entertain their
ouests in such a fascinating
manner that it is a task to get
away. and when once back home.
all idea of picking up work again
is gone. The people of Charles
ton have won a warm spot in the
hearts Of South Cardinals edi-
tors, and although they go else
where next year for the 34th an
nual meeting, they will always
carry with them a longing de-
sire to get back to the Isle of
Palms, the most charming place
in the United States for pleasure,
and to be entertained by such a
host as Riddock & Byrns. There
is no hotel management any
where who are as kind and
thoughtful to their guests, every
possible attention is given them,
and all manner of things are
provided for their entertainment.
The Isle of Palms is an ideal
spot for rest and pleasure, and
Riddock & Byrns are ideal hosts.

The States export edition was
not only a mammoth paper but
it was a magnificent advertise
ment of Charleston's commercial
facilities. It was great paper.
It contained 48 pages and we
are told $4,000 copies came from
the presses. The business men
of Charleston we have no doubt
will distribute this excellent edi-
ton and from it we look for
good results to that city.

The address of A. B. Williams
before the State Press Associa-
ton is something worth pre-
serving. Every student Of the
States history should read it.
Mr.. Williams went through the
campaign of 1876 from start to
finish. He was with Hampton
from the mountains to the sea.
and anything from him relating
to those stirring days are of
course "reminiscences to the older
of US, but to the young they are
valuable historical facts that no
student Of State history should
overlook.

Body of Woman
Submerged
Continued from Page One.

Life had been extinct, the coroner
said, about twelve hours when the
body was found this afternoon. A
mark on the neck indicated that
strangulation was the manner o,
death. Scratches on the leg and trunk
and pieces Of cinder forced into the
flesh showed that the body had been
dragged along a sinder path which
skirts the pond. Along the path the
police picked up a white silk waist
slashed Up the back; a skirt and q
pair OF silk carriers. Following the
path the police came on the yacht Idle
Hour, which was tied up ut a point on
the Passaic about 300 feet from where
the body vas found. On the yacht
the police say that they found a seal
skin muff and a fur neck piece.
The occupants OF the yacht were AL.
bert Thompson, Al years old OF Eliza.
beth, and Frederick Kirkman. IS years
old. Both were employed on the boat.
Thompson said that he found the fur
pieces e the cinder path. The no.
lice found, on the boat dishes enough
for three diners. There were three
plates, three saucers, and so on. The
men, however, said that they had no
visitor on the Idle Hour. Both were
arrested as suspicious characters. The
police said that they had practically
nothing against the prisoners, but
would detain them until further in.
quiry could be made.
Thompson bears n good reputation.
