A Stalk of Cotton. As the season advances the lateness of the cotton becomes more and more apparent. This year lice or disease so retarded growth that fruiting did not begin till late, on much cotton not till August. The history of one stalk is interest ing. It was planted by Mark Parker, of this place, in his garden, on July 1st. The plant made its appearance July. 5th, the first bloom opened Sep tember 5th. The stalk, which is large and well fruited, has not yet an open, boll out of 50. It will be interesting to know how much this stalk will make, how many bolls will open. In this county are a sufficient num ber of bolls to make more than an average crop. Will tney? On this de pends not only trie profits of farming. but part of the cost. Tarboro South erner. Spinners Have Renialned Out of Market. v . A prominent member of 'the Cotton Association in Wake county requests the publication of the following letter dated October 22nd. from Hubbard Bros & Co., Cotton Merchants, of New York: "Under the anxiety arising from the depression in . financial circles and the resulting strain upon all. the market has declined to the lowest prices since last April. Ruling prices are now some 2 1-4 cents a pound be low the high Arices touched in Au gust, and as Natural result the trade are very pessimistic, looKing for a further decline upon the idea that the depression in financial circles will compel the holders of cotton in the South to press their cotton upon the market for eale. Spinners have re mained out of -the market until now, believing, that by the absence of any demand from them, that sooner or later they would be able to buy their supplies when the cotton was pressed for sale. "Few, however, appreciate the dif ference in the financial condition of a very large number of Southern planters, compared with previous sea sons, nor do they appreciate tbelr strong determination to obtain for their cotton better prices than those now ruling. Many sincerely believe that they will be able to control the supply, and compel spinners to finally pay them their price. Whether they will succeed or not will depend upon the size of the crop, but until . they know whether they are to succeed or be defeated by the course of events beyond their control, this movement is bound to have an effect in curtailing the receipts. The cotton trade have so far fol lowed the spinners in looking for a decline, and unless their actions are different than those in other years they must now be heavily short at the low point of the I ear. Spinners have commenced to by more freely and appear to be slowly moving to ward the other side of the market, as while aware of the holding movement, they are also uneasy over the continu ed light receipts In the Southwest, which are undoubtedly due to the poor yield in that section. In fact the ac counts from the Texas crop grow worse daily, many sections which ex pected a month ago to secure a good yield' now report very poor conditions, and if these reports are confirmed a change in sentiment regarding the total yield is not unlikely to occur. "Mr, Ellison's estimate of the con sumption of American cotton for 1907-8 is 12,500.000 bales, which we believe to be small in view of the poor reports coming rom the Indian cotton crop. "Thus we have light receipts, and by the end of the week the smallest visible supply of American cotton for the last five years, together with an increased demand from spinners and , a propaDie change in crop ideas, to offset the upheaval in financial circles and the ' very pessimistic attitude of the cotton trade toward the market. It now seems probable that the yield this season will not reach the require ments of the spinner, and for the rea sons which we have given we feci that the probabilities are in favor of the market."

(Written in I860 by Hon. R. R. Bridgers and Printed in the Tar boro Southerner. No. 1 By R. R. Bridgers in 1860. People further South entertain the opinion that North Carolina cannot grow cotton; this however, is a very great nistake. If they will examine into the subject, they will find Just as the profits of sugar planting revealed a district higher up the Mississippi river sp has the high price of cotton given a district further North for its production. It is a fact beyond all controversy, that crops of cotton often yield to the acre a bale of 400 pounds, while six or eight bales to the hand is not an uncommon product, in the estimate of hands, counting all who go to the field. The county of Edgecombe has in creased its crop In twenty years' from 1,500 to 20.000 bales; by a bale is mear.t 4 00 pounds as it stands ready for r.-.rlcef: the mo?t usual classifi cation is middling, while some grades hir c find some lower. The coun ties of Pit,, Martin, Halifax. Nash, Wil son, Wayne, Green, and Lenoir, and others, in the same time have in creased their productions very much: but not in so great a ratio as Edge combe. Many persons whose opinions are entitled to high respect, think the crop of Edgecombe will be doubled at no distant da.yJ. which does not seem improbable when it is estimated that not one-third of herarable land is in cultivation. Much of North Carolina is well adapted to its cultivation; all the alluvial region that is not too wet nor too sandy and much of the sec ondary making a district of about one third of th State. If the county of Edgecombe, with a territory of 700 square miles, yield 20,000 bales, what will one-third of the State, containing about 17.000 square miles, with like cultivation yield? It will be about 4 80,000 bales. If the season should be favorable during the remainder of the year, the crop of the Tar river country will ex ceed 40,000 bales; and if there should be the same ratio of Increase in the next ten years as In the past ten, at the end of that time it will go con siderably beyond J00,000. Should the p ?sent remunerating prices continue and the Edgecombe system of im provements and cultivation become of general use in the cotton districts, the crop of North Carolina will, at no re mote day, reach a half million bales. The good soils of the State, except the lowlands and swamps, have for the most part Seen so much exhausted that, without improvement, they would barely have paid the expenses of cultivation, i Unlike the crops of virgin soils, after a few years, growing worse and worse, we may expect with each coming new year, with like season, to increase the crop ana improve me land, until we not only restore but often increase its natural productive ness. We cultivate nearly all the soils not containing an excess of sand, nor too much moisture. River, crek. al luvial bottoms, and swamps, all give a good yield If properly drained; not only these, but the pine lands of clay sub-soils, when properly prepared and Improved, will make good cotton; and In many localities for a fey years give a good crop without manuring. These pine lands heretofore only associated with tar. pitch, and tur pentine, give greater promise of future Increase of crop, under the proper sys tem -of Improvement and cultivation than an" of the districts of India or Africa that have yet been tried. Climates that will not admit ot planting by the first week in May are too short; they may occasionally give good crops, but the chances are in favor that they may be cut short by an early frost. Much of the earth has sufficient warmth of weather arid rich ness of coil, but is deficient in the proper mixture of rain and sunshine. Excessive rains in winter or spring particularly in the latter, unfit the land for planting, and usually pro duces a bad stand. Continued drought dwarfs the stalk, and excessive rains give too much weed with a deficiency of buttons. If a propitious season has given the necessary stalk and buttons, heavy raina or continuous damp, and cloudy weather In the blooming season, will Injure the staple both in quality and qUanity. m The bloom getting ' wet the day it opens, adheres to the young boll, some times causing a partial decay, giving a defective look of eotton, at other times causing it to drop off; the latter is most usual effect of the bloom con tinuing wet. Any excess of dry or wet weather will cause the young bolls to drop? the latter more than the former. Even If there are ft he. bolls neces sary for a good cropj excessive rains often produce the bollrworm rot. rust. and other diseases that cut it short; all these casualties passed the planter ready to realize his hopes of a good crop, sees his snow like fields swept down with, a rain storm. Drought is often disastrous, but rain more so: the one is more destructive on poor soils while the latter Is so on the rich moist soils. After the maturity of the stalk the difference of growth in a dry or wet season is perceptible; the alterna tions om wet and dry in the same crop,, can often be seen; the former gives long joints and I few, while the latter, gives short joints and many bolls So long as there are alterations of long droughts and long rainy sea sons in India and the newly explored regions of Africa, the American plant er need entertain no fears from their competition. The cotton association of Europe may announce tne discovery of lew regions to rival the" South; but until they give a different description of dry and wet seasons, they need not trouble themselves with an experiment to test their cotton growing capacity, those who have experience on this subject, know that at best their productions must be inferior in quantity and qual- A warm spring witt light showers, dry summer with occasional rains to wet the soli and an -autumn with a clear iky, are the- essentials for vot- ton; to make a good crop with .con tinued wet weather in or after the blooming season is impossible. How it will succeed in a dry weather clim ate where it is necessary to resort to Irrigation, I have no accurate Informa tion, but certainly much better than where the rainy seasons are . in ex cess. : . The old states have nearly exhausted their rich virgin soils; the time Is near. and in some, places already, at hand when they will have to rely on the Improvement of exhausted lands, and the enriching the soils poor by nature. No lands with & proper system of manuring, promise more than our plney lands with a clay jb-otl: and )f marl or lime with each alternate The Cigar You!

Some of the best cotton fields of Edgecombe are grown on im proved piney lands. Ii have often known fields by the annual : applica tion of manure -to yield for successive years an average of a bal$ of cotton to the acre, and occasionally more; the staple usually grading- about middling. Under a good system of manuring there Is no difficulty of gettlg an aver age of 1.000 pounds to the acre. Most of the cotton lands I have seen in the State require either surface or under draining: and frequently botn. Drain ir-g has had more "to do with the suc cess of Edgecombe planting than any one ow the several causes usually as signed, and Is the first great requisite for the improvement of the agriculture of the State. Last year we had two bad weeks In October and the long drought in Texas this year has caused cottoa to open prematurely. COMPROMISE OR NOT? Is There Prospect of Compromise of the Two and a Quarter Cent Rate Litigation? (Greensboro Record.) Raleigh sent out an item the other day that the State Supreme court had in effect decided to decide against the State in the Judge Long case; against the Southern Railway. It was added that the opinion was due yesterday, but while; a number of cases were handed down this one was not men tioned, although It has been several weeks since it was argued. This pro crastination gives rise to speculation in; jf act ! speculation has. been ' rife some 'time. Yesterday gentleman in a position ; to know one whose posi tion entitles him to the greatest op portunity for knowing, said the whole, matter had been compromised and it only remained for the details to be (perfected and put in writing to an nounce the fact. This he said is why the opinion of the court is held. back. His version of the compromise Is that the Southern agrees to submit to the two anc a quarter cent rate, with drawing all Its suits and giving it a trial for two years, or until the meet ing of the next legislature, at which time if the road is able to show it cannot live, under it. the legislature is to amend the act. This is the story that comes from the party mentioned above. Of course it would be a good thing to stop all litigation and uncertainty, but If this story Is true if-the suits are to be all withdrawn It shows that the case on the part of the Southern has been very badly managed from start to fin ish. Had the road decided on this course at first it would have been far better; by this plan it would have won the good will of every one; now it has the 111 will of too many. " The effect of the rate on the roads had no bearing on the case; it was the meth od adopted that brought about this antipathy to the road. However, all's well that ends well; let us hope that the story Is true and that all litiga tion will cease. -The people of the State can be relied on to deal fairly with the roads when the roads deal fairly with the people, and If the low er rate should prove a loss the legis lature will be sure to repeal or amend it.'

But to the majority those sensatlonalreports as to "getting rich quick" have had a damper thrown on them bv 1 actual stories of those who have been deceived. It is true, the finest crops are raised In the West, that prices for prod ucts are high and that wages are much grester than here, equally true is the report that living expenses are exorbitant In a communication from a former resident of North ' Carolina who is temporarily in that section appearing elsewhere in this Issue, under the heading A Voice from the West" some interesting facts are stated.. the most sulking of -which is that ! while you can get a good price per day In the Went for work, your actual living expenses! are from one dollar and fifty cents to two dollars per day, and; when you get there, you will be no nearer the promised land than you are now. , Young man stay at home."

Walker Relinquishes $3,000 Posi tion to Work in Shops to Study Conditions. . Norfolk, Va., Oct. 24. John P. Walker, secretary of the North Caroli na Pine Association of Maryland, Vir ginia, North and South Carolina, at the semi-annual meeting of that asso ciation in Norfolk today resigned his position, paying him $3,000 a year, to devote the next live years to 1 sys tematic study in the foreign countries of social, economic and industrii.I con ditions, working during that time at a mechanical trade among the labor ing classes in the countries that he shall visit, with the view to cultivating the broad social sympathy that Is pre requisite to all large accomplishments, and then returning, probably to this or some neighboring section of the country to give practical expressions to his Ideas through the medium of some industrial organization. Mr. Walker, who will close up his affairs with the North Carolina Pine Association In the next thirty days, will be accompanied by his wife, form erly Miss Virginia McBlalr, leave for New Tork, where he will enter a ma chine shop and learn the mechanics' trade preparatory to leaving - six months hence for European countries. Mrs. Walker, entertaining ideas in common with those of her husband, will, whileMn New York and Europe engage in factory or other adaptable work throwing her, like her husband, with the working classes for the ac quirement of the ,"soclal sympathy," which they desire for their future pur poses. . Mr. Walker's ideas, when he returns from the long study of social economic questions is to establish some large business, "the lumber business is as good as any,' and work, the same for the benefit of all employed and not for the one man at the head of which there will be none. . He will not absent himself from the frreat cities, but work his ideas in the large communities where the people live. ROOSEVELT LIKE NAPOLEON The Cabinet, Once a Body of Big Men Has Dwindled Into a Coterie of Verj Respectable Clerks. To the Editor: As I have before voted, so I expect again to vote for Bryan for president, and shall do so with greater confidence in his election than ever. What makes strongly for Democratic success la not so much on account of any radical economic difference be tween the Republican and Democratic parties, at. In the great pall of imper ialism, which hangs over, threatens and frightens the people. Never since th days of Hamilton has . the nation been In greater peril. Like Napoleon who had his Fouche for chief of police but who himself acted as policeman, Mr. Roosevelt has become such a great busybody that he must needs handle every mat ter big and littler The cabinet orice an Important body of great big men; under Lincoln embodying a Chase, Seward. Blair and Stanton has about dwindled into a coterie of very res pectable clerks whose duty appears to be to find something for the Boss to meddle with. It is not a very long stretch of time until the next State Convention but at this early date I wish to declare every all glance to the cause of Hon. W. W. Kitchln for Governor hot only because his political and personal rec ord is so cleah but because he is most hated and feared by Taft's coterie of federal officials which alone should give hlrn additional strength.
