PLANT SWEET POTATOES

The boil weevils have taken the
place of the Germans. What the Ger
mans didn't do, the boil weevils are
now finishing. The reports which
come in from the farms are anything
but encouraging. If one-half that is
told of these insects and of the devas-
tation which they are bringing to US
is true, then conditions are not far
from alarming.
Some two years ago the Press and

then to jump up and raise great
noise. 1t were better to escape in ad-

But the time has come when some
thing must be done. We must turn to

left that cold winter may drive the

that we may be saved at least to q
great extent. Just how much ground
for hope there is along this line we
cannot say. But certain it is that we

TWENTY CENT COTTON
PREDICTED FOR MARCH

Since the government issued it's re-
port on August. 1st, giving the esti-
mated average condition of the cot
ton crop at 64.7, or normal, the crop
is reported to have deteriorated full
ly rs per cent in the territory be-
tween Dallas and San Antonio,
Texas, says Sugarman's Indicator.
There are well-informed crop speci-
alists in Texas who are venting the
opinion that the entire state may not
produce more than 100000 bales.
They. are very bullish on cotton in
Texas and are predicting Zoe per
pound by March 1, contrasting with
a prevailing level of 13c per pound.
On a purchase of 10 bales of May
cotton at lac per pound, necessitat-
g marginal deposit of $100, an
advance in the May option to zoe
per pound by March l would give the
fortunate holder an indicated paper
profit of 5000, less $3.50 commission
ed small government tax.
Even though the May cotton fu-
lures should sell up to zoe per pound
~ March 1, there would necessarily
be frequent reactions and bulges
which would give numerous profit
making opportunities. While trading
N cotton futures is highly speculative
at the same time: when you. consider
that the Government states crop
of only s,2OspOO bales is expected as
contrasted with 13,365,754 bales last
year, 11,42O,763 bales two years ago
and 12,040, ,532 bales three years ago,
one can readily realize that there
should be real merit behind the pres
ent upward movement in cotton
futures.

--LEGlSLATION~-NEEDEb:- -

Some years ago the General AS:
sembly passed an Act requiring all
hotels in this state of more than two
stories to erect adequate fire escapes
on plans outlined by the Insurance
Commissioner. The law was advisable.
The recent fire in Macon, Ga, m
which nearly a, score of persons lost
their lives brings home to US the
fact that other requirements are
needed in the matter of protecting
the lives of guests in hotels. e..
The Macon hotel was nothing less
than fire trap. The building was of
wood construction and four stories
in height. In case of fire originating
on the ground floor and getting a
start before being discovered, certain,
death was sure to result. That is
what did result. 1t is stated by the
papers that numbers of guests on the
top floors found their way, to the. fire
escape, but that the rear wall where
it was constructed was in flames so
; that the fire escape could not be- used.
These people either. jumped and re-
ceived terrible injuries or perished
in the flames. ...... -, =
Had the building been of brick, as
it should have been, the rear wall
would not have been in flames and the
lives of the persons who reached the
fire escape would have been saved.
These persons would not have been
called on to jump three or four
stories in order to save their lives,
receiving injuries from so doing,
some of the, injured ones dying as
a result Of such injuries. Had the
hotel been of fire-proof construction,
no one would have lost his life from
the nre. - = ~ =" 80.
! It is manifest that a hotel with
hundreds of guests, perhaps, and
with stores, pool rooms, barber shops
and other places of business connect
ed with it, or in the same building,
is hazardous place to 60 to sleep
on account Of the dangers from fire.
The number of people about the
place, none of whom perhaps are
overly careful, but adds to the dam
gers lurking in building of that
kind. To require that every hotel
building more than two stories in
height shall be of brick and fire proof
construction would be but just po-
lice regulation for the. safety Of
persons compelled ito use these places
at one time or another. Before there
is an awful catastrophe in this state
like that in Macon something should
be done by the law-making power in
South Carolina. 49,

with the suggestion that no four, OF
six, or eight men are strong and pure
enough to be entrusted with unlimit-
ed power over the finances of great
country without direct responsibility
and accounting for their acts to the
public or some other potent and in
telligent authority. Power to fix
money rates for all, or nearly all, of
the banks in New York City and to
change them daily, is a grip of the
heart Of commerce. 1t permits such
interferences as fallible human judg-
ment, whim or interest may direct
with the natural and orderly move
ments of money, the life blood of
business. .-,
Mr.. Williams was quite correct in
saying, basing his statement on the
axiom of Mr.. Lincoln, that no four,
or six, or eight men are strong and
pure enough to be entrusted with I'm
limited power over the finances of a
great country. And yet seven men
sitting in Washington, have absolute
power to fix the money rates for the
entire country, to control the finan-
ces of this great land from the Paci-
fic to the Atlantic, and from the
Lakes to the Gulf, and to dominate
every bank in the country. A few
banks may perchance' have the back
bone or the financial strength to re-
sist the power of this board, but
every bank that goes contrary to it's
commands does So at the peril of its
own life.
If Lincoln thought that no one
man was good enough to be entrusted
with unlimited power over another
man, what would be his thought if
today he could find seven men hold
ing their sessions in secret, have un-
limited power over the business life
of every man in America? The pow
er of the STAKEHOLDER in olden days,
which Mr.. Lincoln had in mind, was
was heavenly in its effect,
and definitely small in its power for
evil, as compared with the power of
seven men who sit enthroned in the
office of the Federal Reserve Board
in Washington. ...
How much longer will the nation
permit such power to stand against
the welfare of ehe country, or to have
to SO make or. break, initiate
OF dehate, which can change over
night the value of every security in
America Of every pound of cotton
and every bushel of grain? That is
the power which no seven men on
earth are good enough and great
enough to hold, and suppose those
seven men take their cue from Wall
street and do as Wall street suggests?
Then Heaven help the country! Some
radical change in such a condition is
essential to our safety.-Manufac-
