something to do with the publication

that it asked all who were interested
to send check for $3.50 and the

that we are only dreaming, but we
feel pretty sure that there was some
thing about getting out history OF

The local reporter says that there
are persons who DO not like the blow
i..>, cf the railroad whistle, and then
there are those who do not like the
sound made ny the whistles at the
several cotton mills. We arc >un1eG
the impression that some years age
an ordinance was passed by the c.1cT
council to prevent the blowing III
the city limits of the whistle Of The
railroad engine. 1t may have been
repealed. And yet the state law as
we understand it requires that the
whistle be sounded at the approach
of every grade crossing.
So far as the editor is concerned
we like to hear the sound Of the mill
whistle as we'll as the sound Of the
railroad train whistle. We may have
acquired this bad taste from the blg
steamboat whistle which was at
tached to the engine or boiler Of the
old mill at home. We always old
take a delight in blowing that whistle,
especially when the mill WAS running
at night. 1t had sweet sound to
our ear, maybe because 1t vas the
evidence that something. was doing
around the old mill. The rocks were
going round and the wheat was being
turned into -four. But there IS no
about tastes.
Sometimes we hear the factory
whistles and sometimes we don't, but
they never disturb us by their noise.

There seem to be I, few people
who think The farmer should sell MS
cotton ard pocket his loss so that the
channels of trade may run smooth.
We ask you to read the article from
the New York Commercial printed IN
this issue on a Reasonable Price
for Cotton
We quote one paragraph which
should cause all the interests to take
note:
"It is really broader question
than whether the manufacturer IS to
pay 20 or 80 or 40 cents a pound tor
his raw cotton. It is proposition
that vitality affects the economic lie
Ct a very large part Of the commun-
;.v, and the prosperity of that por-
t;cn necessarily must affect the whole.
# the South be prosperous, 1t means
the development: OF an enormous buy
inc power that will react upon IN
dustrv and put more money N the
rockets OF the people wherewith to
nav the increased prices for the
finished product =
"More than that i! will mean. the
release of whole populations from a
form Of economic slavery that is dlt-
ferent in form only from real slav-
cry"
IF the farmer or producer has to
sell his product below the cost OF
production it will affect the whole
channel Of trade ard every one Will
feel the effect Of it, because after
all the producer is the real maker OF
wealth, all other being merely med
ium of exchange. Then why should
any manufacturer or banker or meT-
chant try to force or even to argue
that the producer should pocket his
loss and go on trying to produce be-
low the cost of production. He just
can't do it, and if he tries prosper
isy will not long abide and the whole
country will be bankrupt. The pres
ert crop has BEEN an expensive one
70 make and we want TO see the pro-
ducer hold fast until he can realize
the cost with a little profit to HIM
self for the making of the crop.

Just little away above him is he

near by is no more, but the slma
creek is, there and the same red hills
and bad roads that have been there
for many years are just about like
they were in the days of long ago.
The fine apple orchards of the eide"

peaches in every fence corner are
gone, because they did away with TIL
old fashioned fence and the t.ee-
