Tho tiwn council has ordered that an election be hell November 20th to decide whether or not the town shall issue bonds to the amount of J 2 5.0 00, bear ing not exceeding 6 per cent inter est, to-be used in installing a sewer age system. . While it Is generally conceded tha there is nothing In the way of publlo utility that Is more needed in Torkvllle than an adequate sewerage system, it is not believed by those who have a general idea of the expenslveness of this class lot work, ? that $35,000 will ? be more than enough to ' install sewerage on Main street; and it Is believed that the principal residence streets of the town win,, not receive tha direct ben efits of the improvement for - several years, : or until the to wn has grown sufficiently in taxable values to war rant the Issuance of additional bonds. There is no organised opposition to the bond, issue so far as your corres pondent knows and there Is every reason to ; predict that the election will be favorable to the issue., There are no symptoms 0 weaken ing on the part of the farmers in this section relative to holding their cot ton. Torkvllle has r three standard cotton warehouses, the property of private individuals, J; with a combined storage capacity for about 7.000 bales; and, although these already have a goodly proportion of their space iaa; en up, It is not likely that as muchj as one-fourth of the cotton contigu ous to this market that is being held for higher prices is In these ware houses or will . be, as .most of the formers prefer to keep their eotton on their farm - It is said that the crop in this section this year has been raised at less expense' than any: for several years, and that for this rea son many of the, farmers are . in po sition to hold their cotton without be ing forced by creditors to sell, or to borrow money from the banks. So far as your correspondent knOws the banks have been able to accommo date all who have sought loans back ed by approved collateral. ' . ' . . Notwithstanding the fact that the largest corn crop- raised in' this coun ty In years, little or none , is being of fered on the local market and the prevailing price Is 11 a bushel. The explanation of the failure of the home-raised variety to come on the market is the fact that the majority of those who produced the - present bumper crop raise it for home use, and not for .sale not ai. present uj way.

Scientific American. The arrival at the port of New York of the Trans-Atlantio liner Kronprln zessln Cccilie marks the advent of the last and finest, that the great quartette of high-speed ocean steamers which has helped so greatly to advance the speed and comfort .of Trans-Atlantic travel. Beginning'1 with the Kaiser Wilhe'.m, which was the first ship to maintain a naverage of, over 83 knots an hour across the Atlantic, there have been placed in service at inter vals of a year or two the Kronprlnz Wilhelm,; witha record of 23.47 knots, and the Kaiser Wilhelm II, which raised the speed to 23.6 S knots, the present record of the Atlantic. The lastnamed shlpYwhlchwas brought can In 1904, proved to be soeminently. satisfactory that .whne 1 the company decided to build the Cecille they con sidered that they could not do better than duplicate the Kaleer Wilhelm II In every particular.'. .ThJg was done, and that the ship was'equal to, and probably exceeds the performances of the sister vessel is shown ny the fact that on the i trip " - over measured course of sixty miles, the Ceclltt aver aged the speed of 24.02 knots, In view of the fact that the Lusl tahia has. shown such good results of her. trial trip,; and is likely to capture the Atlantic record, and that the Ger man Lloyd" company are certain in the future' to make an effort to win back the record, it is probable - that the Cecllie is the .last high-speed Trans Atlantic steamer of vry groat power that will be -built with reciprocating engines. . In fact. It may be taken that In this ship the Gcrman-'ehtp builders have carried the development of the reciprocating marine engine up to the high-water mark of its possibility. - - A HARD ,DEBT TO TAT.

The market for the day developed stronger resisting powers to efforts to depress prices for this year. Trading in cotton goods for future delivery is now being influenceq more directly by the value of cotton Than It has ; been for some time, and pt is a growing feeling among merchants that the probable readjustments of values for next year will be controlled in a large measure by cotton developments. In this connection attention is again being called to the very strong posi tion of mills and selling houses, both as to orders and the ability, to with stand the shock to credits of the past two weeks. ' It is conservatively, estim ated that five-eights of the possible output of Southern cloth imllls Is un der order into March,, of next year, and it 'is definitely established " that Eastern mills are in fully as good a position. . The orders can be cancelled onlyffor non-delivery, and it is well known that much better deliveries are being made-as a consequence of re adjustments made within two months. Buyers have naturally beenaaaert ing that prices .will be ; lower, and while sellers do not dispute the main proposition they are becoming - more confident than they were a week ago concerning the. inability to meet me full demand for this year and the im probability of supply being increased by offerings of goods from ' second .hands.

Readjustments due to overtrading by mills ana cuy era are in nrosTesa' and. they are an added element of stability which is forcln itself to the attention of the heads of v, the large rf cotton, s goods houses.

It Is not surprising that our great captains of Industry, the creators of railroads, (he builders of steamships, the architects of prosperity, are fold tng their hands and waiting for a res toration of saner conditions before continuing their splendid work for the nation's industrial welfare. It is not surprising that mills, factories and mines are cutting down their pay rolls, and that the record of business failures tor 1907 is the worst of a decade. Righteousness need not con filet wlh the needs real or fancied of business, and prosperity need not go to the wall. The friends of the President, who have appealed to him for industrial peace are. his tru est and most loyal friends. They realize that a business depression, es pecially at this critical time, is a very serious matter, but they Know ,ruu well that It, k a trifle compared with the growth of the, evil tendencies that envy, malice ana wratn encourage.
