PENSIONS AND POLITICS

We do not see the justice nor
necessity in placing on the pension
rolls names of the widows who
married veterans years after the
civil war had ended.
The lady member from Bib is
seeing to remove this class, and,
says the Cordele Dispatch:
And the lady member of the
house from Bib had to present
the legislation which contemp-
lates putting the pension list
back where is belongs. It would
be doing nobody an injustice to-.
eliminate widows after the wear
1871 from the pension roll of
the state. That would save the
state millions of dollars of
money for-to be plain about it
"a far more worthy call. We
hope this measure as presented
by the lady from Bibb will win.

A FAIR PRICE
FOR COTTON.

THE North should not grudge a
fair price for cotton" says Arthur
Brisbane in Hearsts newspaper,
but pay it willingly. Too low a
price will mean emigration and loss
of Southern labor, then a crop cut
down and much higher prices"
In this paragraph Mr.. Brisbane
sums up the reason for every sec
ton of the country to support
reasonable policies which encourage
industrial development in other
sections. No part of this land is
sufficient unto itself.
The way cotton is hammered
down each year, just before the
crop is thrown on the markte,
speak louder than even a Brisbane
editorial.
The North does "grudge" the
South a fair price and never will do
otherwise. The only salvation is
demanding a fair price and holding
until it is given.
Less cotton and more of the 9th
er crops will put the Sumter coun-
ty farmer in position to hold his
cotton.
