TO BE HERE IN MARCH

When the Russian Symphony Or
chestra of New York plays the sim
gle concert which is to be given in
this city in March at the Gennett 1t
will be an even better organization
than that which was heard in this por-
ton Of the country during its first
trans-continental tour which took
place last season. In New York this
best in the country. But in spite OF
this fact, Conductor Modest Altschuier
ever striving to make his instrument
as perfect as possible, has made GER
tain additions to the ranks of his
players which has strengthened it as
musical organization.
When the season closed last year.
the first work which its eminent mus
ical leader undertook was the securing
of certain musicians whose services
he desired. Several distinguished vi
olinists were obtained to strengthen
the orchestral strings; a number of
players of woodward instruments
were invited to join the Russian Sym
phony Orchestra and gladly accepted.
and finally a few exceptionally fine
players upon brass instruments were
given contracts to devote their en-
tire time to the concerts of this or
chestra. The result was shown early
last fall at the first concerts when
those who were familiar with the abil-
tiles of the Russian Symphony Or
chestra declared that it was a more
efficien organization than ever before.
The splendid sweep Of strings, the
mellowness Of the brass and wood
winds have already stirred thousands
of music lovers this season to out
bursts of enthusiasm for these admira-
BILE musicians. When they are in this
city, with the assistance of four dis
tinguished singers, the concert will
be long remembered for the Russian
Symphony Orchestra is great or

room with all the accessories and the
trial will be conducted in every re.
spect with all the gravity Of a supreme
court session. The case will be han.
died on the exact lines of legal pro-
cedure, but for all that will be SO ar.
ranged that the two hours proceedings
are likely to furnish the biggest bunch
of merriment an audience has had In
long time.
OF course. all hearts will go out in
fearful sympathy for the plaintiff,
while as for the defendant, 1t is
enough to say that no one would ever
have believed 1t. The jury is distin.
guished enough to rivet the attention
Of an audience for a whole evening
and are capable of being an entire

mock court trial promises to be one OF
the events OF the season. both in the
interest attaching to 1t and in the
crowd that will attend.

A NOTIFYING SPECTACLE.

::Hell's broke loose in Georgia"
according 20 the latest epistle
from Col. Thomas B. Fielder to
Governor Cole L. Blease, it does
not seem to be getting better
fast. There are some no doubt,
who enjoy d fight Of this kind,
these long distance fights in the
prints amount to about as much
as barking dogs behind a strong
high fence, nevertheless, tits not
a pleasant thought to have the
governor Of the proud State Of
South Carolina spoken of as this
man Fielder is doing in Georgia.
What there is in the alleged let
ter to Hub Evans from Fielder: or
in the letters Fielder claims to
have. to be written by Blease, we
do not know, but we do know
that this dirty warfare Of criml-
uation and recriminatioD is naus-
eating in the extreme. To have
the governor called a sscrook
and to have him spoken of as be-
ing sunft to be governor Of a
nigger colony" may be pleasing
to the governors bitter enemies,
at the same time, there ere those
who do not endorse the acts OF
the governor, nor did they sup
port him, who feel very much an
noyed by the constant boboing
up of this detective-lavyer from
Atlanta, in the public prints of
Georgia, only to have his attacks
rolled as sweet morsels under the
tongues of an element who hate
the governor, not so much Tor
what he has or has not done as
governor. but from personal NAL
ice towards him.
We do not approve Of the gov
ernor's course towards this man
Fielder, nor do we think he should
go out Of his way to say bitter
things against the Gonzales. True
they fought him as no man in this
State was ever fought before, in
our opinion, they had much to do
with his election. but be that as
it may, Blease is the governor,
and as such he should rise above
personal resentment and be big
enough to ignore those who
would say unkind things of him.
This, we regret to say he has not
done, but instead, whenever an
enemy showed his head he would
take deliberate shot at him,
only to give that enemy an eS-
cuse to go back at him with the
meanest kind of insults.

When in Columbia last week

When in Columbia last week
Hon. Woodrow Wilson declined
to commit himself on the wool
tariff question, then before the
Democratic caucus. Bryan had
already expressed his position as
being in favor of free wool but
Governor Wilson when asked for
an expression remained silent,
bat wher he got to Washington
the caucus had acted in accord
ance with the wishes of Clark and
Underwood. then the receptive
candidate for the Presidency
found his tongue and came out
good and strong for the tariff on
wool as presented by the House
leaders. It does strike US man
seeking the leadership Of great
party can be large enough to
come boldly out and take lead.
ing position even if, for party
regularity, he must yield to the
will Of the majority when that
majority has spoken. There is no
gainsaying it that Woodrow Will
son is one of the greatest men in
public life today. He is the

ever expects to lead the great
Democratic Host he must be more
than an ordinary politician, he
must be a creative statesman.

GOOD CROP AND HIGH PRICES.

According to the figures re-
ported by the government there
are S5,004,000 acres planted in
cotton this year, an increase over
last year, and of this South Car
olina has 2,705, 900 acres. An av-
erage Of two acres to the bale
would give abouta II, 900, 900 bale
crop, but the average has meyer
exceeded a bale to three acres
which would be a II, 900, 600 bales,
?od this would mean the highest
prices attained since the recon,
struction period. The cotton sup,
ply at present is short, there is
not enough Of the raw material
to keep the mills going unit! the
new crop is made, that being the
case the mills will have to start
off this fall with new cotton to
keep up with the demand for the
manufactured product. II our
sizing up of the situation is cor
rect there is every reason to be-
lieve the prices will start of high
and will continue to increase if
the marketing is done judicious,

Selav on account Of the drought,
and in some small areas the
stands are not as good as they
might be but take the average
cotton crop, it's good and prom,
