SELLING COTTON AHEAD.

eve learn that in the Robson
county section of the State a
good many of the farmers are
making contracts for the sale of
their cotton for this years crop
A few weeks ago number OF
the planters sold their entire crop
at ten cents per pound fer fall
delivery. A little later others
sold at ten and a half cents.
Since the last government crop
report would-be purchasers are
offering eleven cents and more.
Of course those who have sold all
they are to make at ten cents are
mad because they did not hold
off a little longer and get a cent
and a half more, as those who
sold later have done; but the
probabilities are that the latter
will also become disconnected
with their contracts for it now
looks like those who secure this
years cotton at eleven and a half
cents will be getting it cheap
enough. "-Charlotte Observer.
And The Observer goes on tc
prove that selling ahead of time
is a risky business. Which il
certainly is, as many have founC
out to their sorrow. Wasn't i
Henry w. Grady who said tina
cotton is a d-n fool?" You
can't tell what it may do.

Seaboard Air Line Plans.

RalelBn lmes.
1t is said that the new admin
istration Of the Seaboard Air
Line Railway will make extern
slve Improvements and that its
general policy will be to go for
ward along progressive lines.
Workmen are now engaged in
ballasting $50 miles of track be-
tween Richmond and Norlina and
Bostic and Hamlet, and this work
will be continued until the entire
main line is completed.
General Manager C. H. Hix is
quoted as follows in the Norfolk
Ledger-Dispatch:
While we do not contemplate
any change in the present plar
of operation, considerable expen,
diture is going on to improve The
road bed and equipment, and we
shall continue along this line t.
meet the increased demand from
a freight and passenger stand
point. We are in need of great
er facilities and will have then
as quickly as they~can be com
pleted." r.

Making a tariff law that will
most nearly meet the wishes of
the greatest number of people
and at the same time raise suffic-
lent revenue for the expense of
the government-that is the task
with which for four months both
houses Of Congress have wrest-
led and which has now reached
what might be called the semi
final, or conference stage"
That is the way a dispatch of
the 18th from Washington be-
gins, and it could not we'll be
more entirely wrong than it is.
The people want revision of the
tariff downward, and there is nc
evidence that Congress has tried
at all to please the greatest num-
Der of people-at least those who
have had the greatest say-so
have appeared to be very anx-
ious to please the big interests
and to tax the greatest number
OF people to the limit.
