note. In the one case they will get five
one-dollar silver certificates. each repre-
senting silver dollar. When they buy
bale of cotton they will get warehouse
receipt, showing that the actual bale of
cotton is stored in some warehouse, sub
ject to the demand of the holder of the
certificate, exactly as a silver dollar is in
the Treasury at Washington, subject to the
demand Of the holder of a silver certificate
If buyer should want the actual cotton,
he could get it by sunendering his certi-
ficate.
The South has just made a crop of cot
ton of approximately l4,500,000 bales.
This is the big money crop of the South.
Upon 1t the merchants as well as the peO-
pie depend. and anything that affects the
cotton situation affects the whole South
and practically every interest in the South.
The crop was somewhat short this year
and on the basis Of prices in previous years
it was expected that middling cotton would
average about is cents pound. There is
no doubt but that il would be quoted at
that price or near it if il had not been for
the war in Europe, because most Of the
crop is shipped abroad Merchants lent
money to the cotton growers on the basis
Of a fair price for their cotton, and if cot
ton goes to a very low price the merchants
as well as the growers are likely to be
swamped.
