WHEAT and COTTON.

The furry precipitated by grasPing,
specializing ~fnanciers has robbed the
wheat farmer of about IS cents a bushel
and the cottoni farmer of about 10 a
bale. Middling cotton. (which was wo-th
week ago IL cents on the farm isnow
worth but 10 cents.
These reductions would in case ~ot
immediate sales be taken directly out
OF farmers pockets and they would go
directly into the pockets of foreign
,spinners, for they about two
thirds. OF thelAmerican cotton crop.
Ever Southern farmer should con-
slider the situation with care ;and in
ward thought before he consents to ac-
cept a loss of SIS a bale because of the
financial storm in New York. Each
farmer will to a igreat extent be
Fhrown on his own his
home merchant, his creditors, with
possibly some aid from a home bank
or a home capitalist. Home
must be utilized if the foreign spinner
is to be prevented from securing an
unexpected dividend of SIS ON every
bale he buys.
A reaction from SO sharp a sluuap is
wholly within reasonable expectation.
The farmer whoS carries his cotton over
the month of November will not be tax
ed SIS a bale, while he who carries his
cotton three months stands a good
chance to get all il is worth.
This is a problem that must be met
individually on the farm The ware
house will not be able to accomplish
much in this crisis.bThe question comes
home for home treatment,and the man.
ner in which it is handled will show to
what extent Southern farmers have be-
come Independent OF capitalists in New
York and Liverpool.

EXPECT BIRMINGHAM
TO GO DRY"
The Prohibition Forces Are
Confident Over the Out
look.
No Political Campaign in the Histoty Of
the City Has Been Fought With
Greater Intensity.
Especial to THE ARGUs,)

Birmingham, Ala, Oct. 28.-Under
the provisions of the local option law
passed by the last session of the Ala
bama Legislature a special election to
decide the prohibition issue is being
held today in jefferson county, in
which the city of Birmingham, the
metropolis of the State, is located. No
political campaign in the history of the
city has been fought with greater in
tensity, and in none has the result
been awaited with greater interest.
More than thirty counties of Alabama
have already adopted prohibition and
it is generally conceded by both sides
that if Birmingham goes "dry'' the
chances are that the entire State will
adopt prohibition in a very short time.
The prohibition forces are confident
over b outlook. Since early in Aug
ust they have waged a campaign that
has set b pace for the opposition.
Noted leaders of the a~nti-saloon move
ment nave been brought here from
other States and prohibition rallies
have been held almost nightly. Mass
meetings have been held in all the
churches and every preacher in the
district has been working for the cause.
The women of Jefferson county per-
fected an organization and even the
children have been enlisted in the cam
paign.
The anti prohibitionists have been
equally active in the fight, and a large
sum of money has been spent in behalf
of the liquor interests. At first they
conducted their campaign by means
of literature, but soon they were forced
to allow the example of the prohibit
tionists and resort to rallies and speech
making. The liquor men have been
aided considerably by certain business
men and manufacturers who believe
that prohibition would injure the COM
mercial interests of Birmingham.
The Anti-Saloon League of Alabama
is confident that today's election will
show a substantial majority in favor OF
the cause. If the fight is won in Bir-
mingham the league will Immediately
arrange to take up the campaign in
Montgomery and Mobile counties, in
which two other large cities of Ala.
bama are located.

DEATH OF DIR. ARLINGTON.
One tOf GOldSbOFO'S Oldest Citizens

From Tuesdays Daily.

From Tuesdays Daily.
1t is with keen personal sorrow that
we chronicle to-day the death of DR.. b.
F. Arlington, which occurred this
morning at 2 o'clock, at the residence
of his son-in-law, Mr.. e. B. Dewey,
where he and Mrs. Arlington have
made their home in the latter years,
after an illness of several months,
which from his first pro~stration was
known to be fatal, and which he bore
with heroic resignation and his char
acteristic ch%eerfulness and solicltous,
kindly and loving thought for others,
so much so, that even his family
thought he was better last night, and
in Mr.. Dewey left on the
10 O'Clock train on a business trip
North, only to be overtaken ~ wire
b morning and recalled. Their only
son Mr.. John Arlington, of Mobile,
Ala, visited him last week, and their
daughter Mrs. Bond, of Baltimore, has
been acre for several weeks, and with
Mrs. Dewey and his wife and daughter
Miss Mary have been ministering to
him with all affection and loving ten
derness, until sleep closed down his
eyelids in the cradle of eternity.
DR.. Arlington was one ofGoldsboro's
oldest citizens, having rounded his 80th
birthday on September IL, having been
born on thatsdate 1922, and through all
his years maintained an active interest

hood he was a successful practitioner
of medicine, but gave it up years ago
for the dental profession, in which he
excelled, and his name and fame, not
only as a skilled operator but also as a
scientific writer are perhaps more wide
" known. and his original inventions
and promulgated theories of practise
have been more beneficial TO the pro-
fession, than those OF any other dentist
of his time.
DR.. Arlington married Miss Barbara
