MR. CONE REPLIES.
As the shippers of High Point
are acutely interested in the rate
question now before the sec ate
committee, we give below the
views of Mr. Caesar Cone, pub
lished in the Greensboro Record:
To the Editor: Referring to the
editorial appearing in your issue
of the nth instant, headed "Why
Did Mr. Cone Flop?" I feel it
due to myself to say that I have
not flopped. I am simply opposed
to the proposed law giving the
government power and duty of
making the rates that the railroads
of the United States may charge,
without the consent of the rail
roads. I object to this plan be
cause I think it will interfere with
the industrial development of the
United States and because 1 think
it un-American and socialistic. No
committee or body of men who will
be assembled at Washington can
treat all parts of the United States
and the railroads in all of the States
uniformly and equitably. While
trie scheme theoretically sounds
very plausible, practically I am
sure it will not work. I am sure
it will be destructive of the further
extension of railroads of this coun
try because under the proposed
new conditions buyers cannot be
found for the bonds which propos
ed new roads would necessarily
have to issue in order to raise
money with which to build and
equip.
Can anyone imagine a manufac
turer going into business when he
has not the power to fix the price
of his product? I believe such a
law as is suggested by President
Roosevelt and Secretary Taft would
bring about a panic from those
who hold the securities of the rail
roads of the country and it would
take us at least a generation to re
cover from this panic I am satis
fied with the rates the Southern
Mills are now getting on most of
the long haul business. My com
pany ships goods to every town in
the United States in which there is
located a wholesale dry goods
dealer or a cutter of cotton goods.
We are able to reach most all
points in competition with the
mills of every other section. We
ship goods from most Carolina
points to
Portland, Maine, 49c per 100.
Canaan, New Hampshire, 49c
per 100.
Battleboro, Vt., 39c per 100.
Montreal, Canada, 65c per 100.
Newburg, New York, 43c per
1 00.
Harrisburg, Pa. , 40c per 100.
Milwaukee. Wis., 69c per 100.
Dubuque, jowa, 69c per 100.
Chicago, 111., 65c per 100.
St. Louis, Mo., 60c per 100.
Dnluth, Minn., 98c per 100.
Seattle, Wash., $1.80 per 100
San Francisco, Cal,, $1.80 per
100
Most of these rates appear to me
to be reasonable. I object, how
ever, to our competitors at Colum
bus, Ga., and Danville, Va., being
given lolwer rates than we have to
numerous points. For example,
Danville, Va., gets a rate of 29
cents per hundred to New York
c!ty, while our rate from Greens
boro to New York on similar goods
is 4i cents per hundred. From
personal experience I know we
have some cause for comrlaint. I
have repeatedly brought these dis
criminations to the attention of the
railroad people and am quite sure
that in time they will remedy them
without the intervention of the
government; but this is not the
question under consideration.
My understanding is that Mr.
Roosevelt proposes to take away
from the railroads the power of
making rates and get this question
into politics by giving this power
to a commission. I think this
would be "jumping from the fry
ing pan into the fire." I am total
ly opposed to the red tape methods
and delays which I think will nec
essarily be involved in handling
this business through a govern
ment commission. I.think it prob
ably worse than going into court.
There are many phases of this
esse. For example, merchants of
Salt Lake City pay $3.20 per hun
dred pounds on cotton goods
shipped from North Carolina, while
San Francisco.; merchants have
their shipments from North Caro
lina taken right through Salt Lake
City and delivered to them, more
than a thousand miles farther an(
pay $1 80. " " S j
Then again, consumers of flour
in New York : pay 25 cents per
hundred pounds on flonr from Chi
cago and the West, while similar
shipments for export get a railroad
rate of something like 13 cents;
but the wheat of '.the Western
farmer must be landed In Liver
pool to sell in competition with
that of Argentine India add Aus
tralia and this lower special ' rate
on export wheat or flour is conse
quently given by the railroads. ,
- There are many instances similar
Wheeling, W. Va., May 28, 1903.
Some years ago while at work, I fell
over a truck and severely injured both
of my shins. My blood became poisoned
as a result, and the doctor told me I
would have running sores for life, and
that if they were healed up the result
would be fatal. Under this discouraging
report I left off their treatment and re
sorted to the use of S. S. S. Its effects
were prompt and gratifying. It took
only a short while for the medicine to en
tirely cure up the sores, and I am not
dead as the doctors intimated, nor have
the sores ever broke out again. Some 1 a
years have elapsed since what I have de
scribed occurred. Having been so signally
benefitted by its use I can heartily recom
mend it as the one great blood purifier.

Chronic sores start often from a pim
ple, scratch, bruise or boil, and while
salves, washes and powders are beneficial,
the unhealthy matter in the blood must
be driven out or the sore will continue
to eat and spread. S. S. S. . reaches
these old sores through the blood, re
moves all impurities and poisons, builds

to these, most of which the rail
roads have been in some measure
able to explain. If a commission
established the ideal railroad rate
on the basis of a uniform mileage
rate, this would simply kill our
business entirely with most sec
tions of the United States.
My testimony in Washington
was given on the broad and gen
eral issue affecting trade and com
merce all over the United States.
This subject cannot be treated from
a local standpoint.
The Cone Export and Commis
sion Company shipped to all points
of the United States last year ap
proximately fifty million pounds
of finished cotton fabrics. Every
pound was shipped at full publish
ed rates without any concession or
rebate of any kind, either directly
or indirectly, and we had no more
consideration shown us than the
smallest shipper received.

The Owl Courtship.
Master Hoot Owl sat on a limb.
A sweet Miss Owl not far from him;
He frowned, for he had heard It said
That pretty soon she was to wed.
He mused and then said, with a sigh:
"You are the apple of my eye.
I love you true; I do, I do.
Are you to be married? To who, to whoT"
Now, Miss Hoot Owl, from on her limb,
Looked 'way and blushed and then at him.
He quickly changed his resting place,
For he could tell by her young face
That what lie heard was a mistake.
So love to her he straight did make.
And when he asked her once again
If she would married be and when,
In answer to his soft "To who?"
She murmured low, "To you, to yon."

CUMBER. "When I was a little boy," re
marked an old gentleman, "some
body gave me a cucumber in a
bottle. The neck of the bottle was
small, and the cucumber so large
that it wasn't possible for it to pass
through, and I wondered how it
got there.' , But out in the garden
one day, I came upon a bot
tle slipped over a little green fel
low, that, was still on the vine, and
then I understood. The cucumber
had grown in the bottle. I often
see men. with habits that I wonder
how any strong, : sensible man
could form, and then I think that
likely they grew into them when
they were young and cannof slip
out of them now." ' - 7.-:,-',

and let one grow inter a large bot

forget the lesson while it is grow

Just like the cucumber until they
