Sec. Wilson Tobacco Board of Trade.
L "The small sample of tobacco sent
from Wilson comprises tome perfect

Several days ago a gentleman
from Georgia stepped into our office
and asked to see a newspaper pub
lished ia a certain town in the Slate,
saying that he expected to make that
town his home sometime soon and
wanted to see what kind of a town it
was. We knew that the town in" ques
tion was better than the paper would
indicate, and vet we could not help but
think how -true it is that a to ,yn is
indeed bv the newspapers it sends
out.
Cotton at Konr Cents.
We heard a well informed business
man say, the other, day, that tl
farmers would make their cottod this
year at a cost of about four cents a
pound. lie based his calculations
upon the fact that not much time
business was being done this year.
He said that time trade was . smaller
than he ever knew it. That, it seems
to us, is a good sign, and'the gentle
man above referred to thinks so top."
Times are harder now for tradesmen
than anybody else, but a better time
is in the near future.

We understand thatUhe new com

everybody in town to hang their
gates so as to open On the .inside.
That would be decidedly a move in
the right direction. Itjis very annoy
ing and trying to one's Christian
spirit to walk jam up' againgt a big
gate on a dark night. One doesn't
like to divide his attention in such a
way. While the proposition would
be a little trouble at first, no one
could reasonably object to it.

that Senator
Ransom's son speculated
n sugar
stock. The dreadful truth has trans
pired and all the harrowing details
have been laid bare to the
gaze of a horrified and wonder-stricken
world. To be sure, the young
man is not a Senator, but he is the
son of a Senator, and the fact of his
participation in the speculation is full
of significance.
He lived in the Senatorial atmos
phere. He could not nelp knowing
that emissaries of a proud and in
solent corporation were in town seek
ing to enrich public men for their own
base
purposes.
And though we
blush to. tell it, he was swept into the
deadly maelstrd'm, and came out Sto
short in consequence. Whatever
significance attaches to this wretched
episode, whatever moral lesson may
reside in this chronicle of wickedness
and ruin, we sadly and reluctantly
concede to the credit account of
moral agitation. It is shocking, it is
appalling; but it is true, and. like
Gallagher, we let her go.
What further depths of infamy this
investigation shall disclose, we shrink
in horror from . conjecturing. There
is some consolation ' in feeling sure
that the ignorance of the quidnunc
space-writers cannot be shown up any

comes next, but who can tell how
many more $10 notes, have been
