manufacturing our greatest staple

II Is said comparisons are obi
ous. In this case comparisons can
but hurt the pride OF the true Texan

development OF his state at heart.
In 1910 ten states OF the South.

$50 bales OF cotton, which, was all
except an insignificant portion, OF
the cotton output OF the United
States OF this number, Tex
as alone, produced 3,O72,939 bales
or 26 per cent. During the same
year the number OF cotton spindles
in those ten states was 10.349.s75.
or this number Texas had 1O4,62s.
or approximately only per cent.
Instead of having 26 per cent of

pleasing. The cotton production of
North Carolina for 1910 was 774.-
752 bales, which was about one
fourth that of Texas during 1910.
The cotton mills OF North Carolina
consumed 65S.49s bales OF cotton.
or So per cent OF the entire output
OF the state. The Texas factories
during the same year consumed only
39.O52 bales. or IL per cent of the

Is Bradley The Negroes Friend7

The most remarkable utterance
we have heard of being delivered in
the campaign in Kentucky so far
was that of Senator Bradley at
Lexington last Saturday when ne
said that he hoped all the negroes
who vote f0r Roosevelt will be put
back into slavery. Ever since the
war the leaders of the republican
party have been setting themselves
up as the only true friend OF the
negro, and they have generally
been able to do as thew pleased with
the colored brother when election
time came around. by appealing to
him upon this basis. Now when they
see large number of that race leav-
ing the old party for Roosevelt and
for Wilson, they show Just how
much they have really thought of
the negro all the time. The mask
is torn off. He is all right as long
as they can use him, but as Sena-
tor Bradley says, when thew can't
use him longer. why, he should be
put back into slavery. Wonder
what kind of a friend the negroes
will regard a man and party VINO
expresses such a sentiment about
them? The white democrats of the
south are the best friends the ne
groes have ever had. and they are
now beginning to find it out.
