They were inferred with the hon ors and beautiful and impressive services of the Order of the Wood men of the World, of which the deceased was a prominent and in fluential member.
 The deceased was about 3s years of age, active, energetic and one of the leading business men of our city. He had been engaged in mercantile persuits until about six months ago, when he sold out and went into the real estate business and organized the Knox Hardy Land Company. He was returning from a trip to Missouri with some prospective investors when he met his untimely and unexpected death. He leaves heart broken wife and two little children. Il girl three years old and baby boy about six weeks old, besides two brothers, MT. D. M. Hardy, County Clerk and K. L.

He was kind and loving husband tender and affcctionate and per. feetly devoted to his wife and lit tie babes. While no earthly sym pathy can avail to soothe her sor row in this sad bereavement, yet there may be some consolation in knowing that she has the sincere sympathy of our whole country.

Cotton Letter.

We desire to make it plain to all
concerned that when We urge farmers
to hold their cotton off the market
We are talking to that class Of cotton
growers who are in position to do so.
In the outset we urged every farmer
TO arrange his debts first, as best as
he could, by storing his cotton or
otherwise, and keep all the weak cot
ton off the market. But now, since
New York has combined to refuse
money to our southern banks to keep
this weak cotton off the market, it
seems that those cotton growers who
have placed themselves in such a
hazardous position Of growing cotton
exclusively with which to buy their
living, even down to their daily
bread, are in hard luck, and are like
" to pay a heavy penalty for not
growing their home supplies, aad
placing their financial destiny in the
hands Of gang Of worthless gam5-
lers. Boys, come out from under
these robbers and grow your own sup
plies.

Our Cotton Letter.

We are rejoiced to see the grit and
pluck shown by so many Farmers
Union men during this supreme mo-
ment when all New York Seem to be
combined to break down our deter
mined efforts to hold cotton for pro-
fitable prices. There are more and
stronger men in the holding crowd
this year than ever known before,
and quite large number are with us
this time that do not belong to either
the Farmers Union or the cotton As
.sociation. Our farmers warehouses
all over S. C. are being filled up with
cotton. Anderson County Union has
her large two story house full and
now filling another department in a
cotton mill house. In fact every
where we hear Of warehouses being
filled and throwing the key away
net to be found until minimum prices
hTa reached. Fully half the cotton
he3? is not II warehouses. I'll are
= .ezin~ to their cotton and are 60
!n~ to hold on until it carries them
in sight cf the burning sulphuric blue
b!azes Of hades before they will let it
60 at cotton bear prices.

Our Cotton Letter.

For cheek and gall the following
clipping from an editorial in the Sat-
urday Evening Post seems to be about
the limit. This man wants the
Southern Cotton Growers to sacrifice
their cotton as usual in order to bene-
fit others but the old cotton growers
are determined not to do thi, thing
eve must depend princi pally up
on cotton, which Europe will buy in
great quantities, and which runs in
to money YER. fast, to overcome this
menace and turn the tide our way,
That, in view Of such public need.
planters should hold cotton for mere
ly personal gain is truly reprehensi-
bic. We read that the banks gener-
ally will keep them in the path of du-
ty by refusing to extend loans on
stored cotton.
IA similar situation arises every
fall. Cotton makes nearly one-quarter
Of our total exports. Much more than
anything else, it is what keep our
trade with the world going. We must,
each year, hurry out the great staple
in order to meet our balances in Eu-
rope. The function of the cotton in
dustry in financing our foreign trade
is so important, indeed, that one
might almost expect to see bill in
congress introduced by a gentleman
from Pennsylvania and backed by
the stand-pat league-forbidding
planters to withhold a single bale
that was ready for export.'

&::J n";5:u- iii the trUlh,| these
men who do this are to a certain
(and very large) extent, robbers. Yes
for in a great many instances they
are robbing their families If good
wholesome food, good clothing, and
taking the advantages Of a good edu-
cation away from their children, and
taking away from his home that joy,
peace and happiness that should be
there. Poor fools "they know not
what they do"
Say now, the Ten Cent Man! You
have sold your 500 pound bale Of cot
ton at 10 cents. It brought you $4,000.
IF you had been a man, had been
honest to your family, to these depen-
dent upon you, and kept that cotton
for Is cents, don't you think thai you
would be feeling better over the mat
ter? It is doubtful for such as you
are devoid Of feeling. If you had
kept that cotton off the market until
the Is cents mark was reached, it
would have brought you $500. Now
say, if you had kept that cotton at
home and borrowed the $4,000 and
paid so per cent for same, would you
have lost anything? Of course you
could have borrowed this $4,000 at a
much less rate, but I am just giving
you this to show you what you are
doing.
There Is not 8 man In the W1ole
cotton belt but that could have kept
his cotton every bals Of it till the
present time, and if they had, and
not glutted the market st the very
beginning every pound Of cotton
would have brought Is cents and
more. There are men in almost all
sections Of the country today who
are urging their renters to sell at the
present price. ''Thou fool'' why
listen not to these men, who are steal
ing from you for their individual
gain.
Hold fast to your cotton boys and
listen to the voice Of these men, who
are trying to drag you down the hill
while they are going upward no lon
ger.
Hold for the price fixed by your
National Union. For Is cents.
