THE COTTON MARKETS IN Ian.
CASTER AND ROCK HILL.

Some days ago citizen of Ches-
ter county made public statement
in regard to the alleged superiority
of Lancaster as cotton market as
compared with Rock Hill. The
Lancaster News, in an editorial, at
tempts to turn this TO the advantage
of Lancaster. This effort is entirely
legitimate and indicates that the
News is alive to opportunities to
serve its town; but, if what the citi-
zen of Chester county states is true
and what the News says is true, how
did it happen that citizen of Lam
caster county, who was in Rock Hill
last week told this story:
This Lancaster citizen, whose
name is withheld because the Her
aid has not had an opportunity to
get his permission to use it, is one
Of the best known men of Lancaster
county. His statement is substan-
TALLY as follows:
