Fortunately for the cotton planter, the world seems to have produced a man who has taken a great step forward in solving this , vexed question, and whllo I did not witness the test of the Lowry picker at 8hreveport. I note from the press reports that the result was so sat ic.ra.Mnrv that some slxty-flve or seventy of the most responsible cotton planters and business men of north Louisiana. many of whom i nave me pieaeuie . knowing personally, passed resolutions unnuallfiedlv endorsing It. This is a tre mendous victory fw the cotton grower, tor the reduction in cost of labor and production will be immense, as the picker is asserted to do the work ef from three to nva men a day. At Shreveport the ac counts show that each one of the four arms of the machine picked an average of ue bolls a minute. This Is at th it of 3,000 pounds or cotton per oay per machine. If this machine or Mr. Lowry's can do such things as these, half the battle has been won for the far mer, for this picker will take rank as the srreatest imnrovement In the cultiva tion of cotton since the- Invention of the cotton gtn. Since the Shreveport meet ing disbanded. Its members have scatter ed all over the South and have spread the watch word. Hold your cotton.' to Mich purpose that the farmers every where have fallen in line and announce that thov will wait for better prices.

A Merry Season Being Enjoyed by Student A Concert The Clirist mas Gorman a Great Success. Correspondence of The Observer. Rock HII!. 8. C. Dec. 24. Wlnthrop Col lege students d not go home for Christ mas, hut Christmas comes to Wlnthrop, which, if not the same thing, Is at least something like IT. College spirit, class spirit, society spirit all the spirlts-ure. glvlnp way to the spirit of Christmas, and the air is filled with mirth nnd good will und delicious secrets. "Jolly old winter,'" who seems to have come to stay, la like 'wise in a capricious mood, frowning, whistling and smiling by turns like a schoolboy. He has the spirit, too. On the evening of tho 19th. the John Thomas Concert Company gave nn enter tainment which came as a merry prelude to the Christmas season. The spontaneity of Mr. Thimns' humor, his gymnastics, his almost grotesquely homely counte nance. mak up an irresistibly funny character. His burlesque on pulpit elo cuenca of ye olden lime, both In the piety of tho sentiments nnd in the long metre solemnity with which they were delivered, was quite effective, and was received with much laughter. If lehabod Crane-s nasal tones are yet lingering nmnng the rafters of the old Dutch church of Sleepy Hollow. Mr. Thomns' facial contortions must be destl.icd to have some such ghostly existence in the Wlnthrop Col lego auditorium, for they were indeed "wonderful and yet again wonderful, and most wonderful wonderful, and after that out of ill whooping." The pianist and violinist who accompanied Mr. Thomas were both trained musicians and not only ndiled their own skill an artlBts to the Mvcning's entertainment, but saved It from ar. excess of th- rldlculou.'i element. On Krldny morning the kindergarten and the first graiie room of the model school presented such scenes us keep the heart of the world young. Christmas trees hung with gifts of the children's own making, bnby voices blended In song. Innocent faces with no shadow of distrust upon them, faith In the benutltul myth, so old. yet ever new. each had charms and tog- ther made the grown-up visitor realise that the child's faith Is the true faith after all. that 'the glory and the dream" are. the r.;nl things and our ma terialism but a make-believe. There is nn more important and vital work at Wln throp than that done in the kindergarten nnd model school the work of training elder girls to enter Into the lives of chil dren, to know them, to love them, and to lead them In safo paths. The Christmas german was given last night. The members of the Thalia Club were the hostesses of the evening, the guests being the members of the Terpsl rborean Club and other friends.

The officers have not made very many arrests fur this time of the year, while thev liave made more for drunkenness than ought to be neressnry with the prohibit ion lnws that are In force In this county.

In that town. T. W. Lawson A Stock Exchange hns a perfectly legit imate function In a country's business mechanism. It Is a place where market values can be on tne instant ascertained and th daily list of rpintatinna Is there fore universally consulted for Information snd guidance. If Mr. l.awson's sensa tional performances are merely the tur tles of a conscienceless raider who . with out warrant of fact o. reason assails val ues und hammers d iwn prices, then It would se-m that the gentlemen who stand before the country us the pillars of the vast investment structure owe it to their own reputations nnd to the comfort ami security. of the ina-stinjr public to expose bis baseless assertions If. on the other hund, 'the recent range of security prices was reached through manipulative pro cesses quite unrelated to the earning power and actual value. If the market wns Indeed a house ot cards, then Mr. Lawson Is performing a public service, even though Incidentally he may be lining his own pockets. Bo long as New York city maintains a stock exchange that is open to such raids as have caused the violent fluctuations of he past week, ambitions that may any where be cherished to make It the finan cial centre of the world will be Justly ridiculed. A centre Involves the Idea of balance and stability A financial centre Is a place where movements and changes should be the resultant of n multitude of forces, fluoted prices in nil its markets should represent with an approach to ac curacy the . world's average, tho normal level. . The Times has refused to publish Mr. lAwson's advertisements. As a Justify ing reason for their exclusion from it-! columns It Is sufficient to say that Th Times Is not that kind of newspaper: these responsible for its character nnd contents do not care to make that kind of newspaper. The Times does not be lieve the charges which Mr. Lawson makes against some of the greatest cor porations In th country, corporations managed by boards of trustees Including many of the chief men In the country, men In whom the public has entire confi dence, men who are the custodians of hundreds of millions of the people's sav ings. If Tha Times did believe Mr. Law son's charges It would itself begin a rig orous Investigation, and It would print ths results, not In its rdvertislng columns, tut upon Its next pages, as (nforma ti in Which it would be a newspaper's duty tti lay before its readers, Editorial from New Tor t Times.
