Greenville," S."C New ; I In thla dar of kros abase and flag rant exaggeration In the treatment of ' the subject of con anions among we cotton mill operative of the South, It , is refreshing to And one who la aie - to view the matter in a rair ari cnu- ear way. Such seems to be the char - acter of Ihe aeriea of articlea on the ' conditions In the cotton nulla or soma Carolina which has Just begun In The Boston Transcript, -j 'These articlea are written by Rev, , I. H. Goldemlth. D. D.. pastor of the First church In Salem, , wno, though a native of the South, being . a. son of Mr. William Goldsmith, of thla. city, has spent most of his ma : tore years In the .North. - Dr. Goldsmith -writes most Interest ' lngjjr and shows that he has given the : subject deep thought and painstaking Investigation. Hla articles are full of Information and facts which are con- . vlncing. Dr.' Goldsmith waa familiar with conditions in the South twenty and even ten years ago. but coming again - on thla miasion of impartial Investiga tion after an absence of ten years, he Is In' position to speak the truth as to the effect of the mills on the mental, - . moral and physical being of the ope ratives. While he does- not attempt to paint life in the mills as a grand sweet dream, nor does he undertake to com - pare the men to Apollo or the women workers to x Venus, he shows very clearly that the penny-a-liners who -have pandered to a depraved taste for' something startling and the puDiica- tion that, have scattered the product of these vultures who have talked ! about "white slaves." "scum" and the 'Ilka, have done a great Injury to a very worthy class. And he shows that whatever may be the present condition of the operatives in the mills. It Is infinitely better than the condition of this same clan' before the establiHh- ment of the mills: that it Is growing Better every year, and thut' those who live in the mill communities - that have been longest established are to day more advanced physically as well as in every other way. - In the matter of wages, Dr. Gold smith makes Interesting comparison with Massachusetts, wherein, when , the equalizing process Is applied to the cost of actual necessities and to the wants that have to be supplied - the South Is riot the sufferer. He shows that there Is absolutely no law in this State to force people to stay in any particular mill or to work out a debt. The charge of "peonage" is a gratuitous slander. He, finds no ev- Idence whatever as to abuses in the 'company stores and gathers from the general sentiment of the operatives themselves and the attitude of the mill managements, the Intelligence of the people and the laws of the 8tate. that such abuses as have been alleged by the sensational writers could not ex ist. TVhlle frankly admitting that the conditions n the mill villages might ne improved, as they could, also In Massachusetts, he gives .the facts, and his articles will do a great deal to wards dispelling a prejudice which would he stirred If the many malign ing articlea that have appeared of late were allowed to go finanswered. The fact that these people, are year by year improving mentally, morally. physically and financially, and this Is true as shown by many correlated facts, makes this articles of real value to those who would learn the truth. taken on they had taken at thla time last year; and stocks of all kinds in this coun try are very low. There will be no stocks In America on The 1st of Sep tember; and by the last of Septem ber, there will virtually be no old cotton In Kurope.

The element In the New York cot ton exchange whi-h bHieve In an im proved contract and a blggfr. broader market ha been sftrcewful In the firht In the nominating' committee, and the official ticket, whlrh was an nounced yesterday, and which will he voted upon next month, Is a "reform" tlrkrt. The ticket Is a strong one, and If it Is elected, as It probably will be. It Insures a revision of grades that will make the New York con tract a better contract than it hn ever been, and which will render Im rosslhl a repetition of the criticisms which recently have been officially directed at the exchange, The ticket is headed l,v Klchard A. fprings. of Springs & Co.

While a safe malorlty of (he board of mna.frs' ticket belongs to the "reform party" rf the exchange, there areasrme oa the ticket who do nut 'v the ti-ket as a whole represents the opposition to the element of the exchange that made the revision of grade ,,f November. 1S0. which was s harshly criticised by commissioner Herbert Knox Smith. Many favors He comments upon the ticket were made when It was posted iTwrey aiiern on, Bui they were by no means unanimous. There Is a powerful faction in the exchange It has king toet-n in a greet degree the dominating faction that wfls much displeased, and no sooner -was it posted than there was talk of an opposition ticket. Some of the most Indignant wanted a new ticket with another head, and nthera amggeeted that a second ticket be put in the field, accepting Mr. Fprlngs and Mr. Norden and part of the board of managers, but changing - enough names on the hoard to throw the control of the exchange into the hands of the "old crowd." It was aald last evenHt- that an opposition ticket of some sort was almost cer tain to be put in the field, and if this i done there promises to be the most Interesting fight in the history of the . exchange. "I hope they do put another ticket n the field," said one of the men on the regular ticket -There seems to be some difference "of opinion as to "how this exchange should be run and . for whose oeneflt It should he run, a ad It might be well to have a straight out fight over the question and get ft fettled." - . i THE CWmwr 8TTTATIOV, The Stew Year Will Be Entered With Te the Editor f fh Obsarver: ' Any light thrown on the cotton sit uation must be of Interest in . thla time-of . trouble."

In the United Htates the invention of new textile machinery producing new cotton fabrics like "mercerized cotton," etc., are springing up on ev ery hand. Thirty yeara ago The South pro duced only four million bales, twenty years ago only six million bales, ten years ago elg.it million bales. The crop in recent years averaged twelve million bales. In 1904 the Cnlted Statea product was was 1S, 420.000 bales. Within ten years, the world wfll probably .require an annual produc tion of thirty million bales of cotton. it will be almost Impossible to meet the demand made upon it to produce this vast 'amount without the aid of a successful mechanical cotton picker. Do you know that In the old con test of hand-labor versus machine-la-'Jor, history shows that the victory Invariably goes to the side of prog ress and efficiency?. Modern machinery has reduced- the labor required to produce a bushel of corn from. four hours to thirty-four minutes,, and In wheat from three and a half hours to ten-minutes, while In the production of cotton there has been practically no decrease. It -is hand-picked' as It .was two thousand years ago. ' we now stand at the dawn of a new era in the harvesting of the cotton crop. The problem will be satisfac torily solved at last. It was reserved for Thomas Oliver, who gave the world the Oliver Type writer and. made his name a house hold word all over the continent, to give the world a successful cotton picker. The supreme effort of his inventive genius has the Oliver repu tation built right Into it. It Is a new and distinct departure In mechanical principles. It Is ori ginal in every detail. - It Is triumph of simplicity. It is efficient, com pact, durable. It will not damage the fibre,, injurs the plant or the . un ripe boll, v ..... It will occupy the same relative pos ition to tha cotton crop that the mod ern up-to-date harvester occupies to the wheat crop. ' . ' ' . ' Its adoption will emancipate tha planter from the labor problem and pick the first ripe toot ton two weeks In advance of hand-labor. - This cotton brings the highest pride obtainable at a time when the planter most1 needs the money. . It will save the labor of twenty men and saye valuable .time for other important work on the plantation: The Oliver cotton picker will not only pick cotton, but it is the only machine that will go Into the field onoe.' twice, three, four or even mere times and pick the ripe cotton with out damage to the fibre, and without Injury, to the plant for the unripe bolls. - It will overcome difficulties never before attempted by any other cotton picker. It picks only the ripe cot ton: it Is original, simple,, practical and effective, i - - The pressing want of a successful machine to pick the cotton crop has been the one almost insurmountable Obstacle to its increased production. With this erooiem satisfactorily solved by the adoption of the Oliver cotton picker, a far greater acreage will be-planted.-which means the probability of doubling - the entire cotton crop. - This will give en additional half billion dollars . each rear to the cotton planters. - -.
