INJURIES COTTON GROWERS. COT
TON TRADERS AND COTTON
NAN UFACTURERS.

The Senate can generally be relied
upon to kill or e~masculate any good
bill that gets through the House. The
Holt bill required railroads to guaran-
tee the correctness Of bills Of lading
anG was in response with a demand
of bankers, business men and farm
ers. But the railroads did not wish
the bill to pass, and it seems they
had the necessary influence to kill it
in the Senate. Commenting upon the
need Of railroads guaranteeing their
bills Of lading, the Manufacturers
Record says:
1t ought not to be necessary for
cotton shippers or for banks advanc-
ing on bills of lading to peal the cost
Of guarantee of the correctness of the
bill Of lading. 1t is a serious ~reflec-
ton upon the judgment Of railroad
officials, who, by making his neces-
sary, would say to the public that a
contract (for a bill of lading is a con-
tract) signed by them is not good at
It's face value, and that it can only be
accepted on the guarantee of somebody
else that 1t means what it says. JUS

driven to do SO by law, the railroads
are not willing to give the public what
1t a a right to expect.
In it's issue Of June 16 the Manu-
~facturers' Record called upon the rail
roads of the South to take this stand
voluntarily. It suggested that some
leading Southern cotton-handling road
should take the initiative by announc-
ing to the public that it would abso-
1utely guarantee the correctness Of
every bill Of lading issued by it, so
that when a man paid a draft with
a bill OF lading attached for one bale
Of cotton or a thousand bales Of cot
ton he would know that he would get
exactly what the bill Of lading called
for. The railroad that takes this po-
sition and does it promptly will render
tc the public what the public has a
right to demand Of it and at the same
time will get great credit unto itself.
Unless this method is adopted the rail
roads will arouse public sentiment,
and every cotton grower and every
cotton shipper will feel an increasing
hostility to the railroads every time a
bale Of cotton is shipped under any
other system.
"If bonding companies should under

Northerner becomes confused and
rritated, he sees financial ruin ahead;
he discards one theory after another,
drops them in a pile and carts them
off as rubbish. He becomes converted
and is soon the most intolerant OF
p~roselytes. This type OF mar then
begins to take an position
far more rabid than any Southerner.
He judges the negro TAR too harshly,
and demands OF them those qualities
which they do not possess. He lacks
the Southerner's tolerant charity for
the negro's invincible limitations
The Southern man knows that
there are certain things which he
cannot expect OF negroes in his en-
ploy. He expects no intelligent Inter
est in the work that they are doing.
no individual initiative, nor the ca
pacity to plan and execute He ex-
poets them to deceive him, steal con-
servative1y, and to shirk their work
the m his back is turned. The
Northern man, on the contrary, de-
mands the same industry, upright
ness, truth and honesty that ne finds
in sel~f-respecting Northern laborers.
And when the Northern man falls to
find these qualities, or any Of them,
he is outraged beyond patience.
But he has his mill, plantation or fac
tory On his hands and must tune his
fiddle to suit the crowd. This man

then goes North and does a lot Of
talking. But his neighbors do not be
1ieve him. They shrug their shoulders
and say you're tainted by Southern
prejudices.'
Throughout the South today are
thousands Of Northern men engaged
in various enterprises. Many, if not
most, are Republicans in national mat
ters. Many would still vote the Re-
publican ticket in their Northern
homes, but not in the precincts of their
adoption. They either keep out of
politics or stand shoulder to shoulder
with their new neighbors. They are
white men first, partisans afterward.
The South has no class of citizens
more sympathetic and more loyal
than these ex-Union soldiers who have
cast their fortunes in Dixie. They
have seen both sides.
The other missionary is the yellow
Or black gentleman who leaves the
South and %saunters where

of labor is to insist upon his rights
This keeps him SO busy that he has
no time to fool with anything else.
He herds In the cities, a loafer and

the Stevens bill, which passed the
House, did not get to the Senate be
fore it adjourned on Saturday last.
This bill is a very desirable one, IS
it makes the railway companies liable
for the acts of their agents, (of
curse it does not cover forgeries).
Congress will not meet again until De

take up the Stevens bin early in the

This is a matter of the very greatest
moment to the cotton growers and
reflects upon the Senate's desirs to
give them the only protection they ask
"a guarantee from the railroads that
their own bills Of lading for cotton
are correct. 1t is a perfectly fair
thing and no Senator can give a good
reason why this bill vas not pressed
in The Senate. Banks will be slow to
advance cash on bills of lading for
cotton if the railroads are not re-
sponsible for the acts of their agents.

If your stomach is continually

more; they drive out the poisonous

and thoroughly clean, renoyate and
strengthen the stomach so that it can
readily digest food without artificial
