33k Blornmg tr, WXLXtXAM H BERWARD. WILMINGTON. N. C. Friday s MoRjrura, Jclt 24. TWO HUIDEXD XUU0S8 XOSX Philadelphia Evening Telegraph: At the' informal conference held by the Finance Committee of the United States Senate at Hot Springs, Va., a proposition for monetary reform was brought for ward, and after mnch discussion was unofficially marked for publi cation. As giTen to the press, this plan is rery simple, and he who runs and reads can readily under stand it. In brief, it contemplates the issue of additional banking cur rency as needed to the maximum limit of 200,000,000. This cur rency is to be automatically regu lated by the Imposition oi a 5 per cent, annual tax on the amount currently outstanding. It is as sumed that, as money comes into more active use and current interest rates rise above 5 per cent. the banks will respond to the public demands for funds by issues of the new cur rency. When these public demands decrease and interest rates decline below 5 per cent, the tax will hare the effect of inducing the banks to withdraw the circulation they hare put out, thereby reducing the toI ume of currency, without any especial action being taken other than that of logically ensuing from the course of financial events. The new currency will be secured, first, by making it a lien on the en tire assets of the issuing banks, and second, by a fund in the United States Treasury, accumulating from the proceeds of the 5 per cent. tax. This is a sort of compromise propo sition, an expedient which might an s wer the immediate needs of the coun try without creating any radical changes in the existing character of cur national bank currency. It is open to the objection that, if en acted into law, it will add another piece of scrappy legislation to the already sufficiently miscellaneous patchwork of our monetary statutes. It may be well enough to hold this plan under advisement, since it has been unofficially considered by the Senate Committee; but it should bo understood that the Republican powers that be in the House of Rep resentatives are distinctly hostile to any financial legislation whatever during the coming session of Con gress. THE SOUTH'S PROGRESS. According to the Baltimore Manu facturers' Record, in 1880 the South had forty cotton seed oil mills, with a capital of $3,500,000.' During the last six months alone the South has organized ninety-four cotton seed oil mills, with a capital of 3,700, 000. There are now TOO oil mills, with an annual output of 125,000,- 000 in place of the fortyoil millspf 1880. In 1880 the outn maae 397,000 tons of iron; this year its production will? be largely over 3, 000,000 tons. ' Its coal output will be about 65, 000, 000 tons, against. 6,000,000 tons then. Its cotton spindles now number nearly 8,000,000 against 600,000 in 1880. I These are' but typical illustrations of the progress of.every line of in dustry in the South. The advance in these industries has been matched by the growth in lumber; in furni ture making, in rice; production, in railroad develoment, in fruit and I early truck raising, and in nearly all other lines of human activity. But the next ten years will show far greater progress than the last twenty. SPIRITS CURRENT COMMENT. If the negro's head has been filled with dangerous fool notions, if he has begun to think himself immune to the law and enjoying especial protection from Washing ton, and if he has rendered himself intolerable to certain northern com munities, the responsibility for this ii ifu - . er -; regretiaeie couaiuon oi auaira cu be traoed clean up to the White House'. Memphis Commercial Ap peal, Dem. The chances are that there will be no concentration on any Democratic aspirant in advance of the convention. There is a possi bility, of course, that some Demo crat not now mentioned may come to the front next winter, although it is hard to see how any man in that party will get a chance to win any prestige thia year or next year. The contest for the Democratic presidential candidacy of 1904 is still very wide open. St. Louis Globe-Democrat , Dem. . It may be that Aaron Burr waa as great as some of his admirers declare he was, and it is possible that he was as heroic as others in their mixtures of history and fiction endeavor to picture him. Even so, however, it will probably never be possible to convince a great ma jority of the American people that he was not a despicable character. Aaron Burr's murder of Hamilton was a crime that certainly brought its own punishment. Cliicago-Re-cord Herald. TWINKLINGS. TIDE CTTBAJT COXQ&ESS. New York Commereial Advertiser: The first Cuban congress has ad journed after a continuous session of more than a year, leaving a re cord of work that is wholly satisfac tory to theUnited States. The Senate failed to adopt the Piatt amendment treaty, but as its chief provisions have been incorporated in the Cu ban constitution there is no practi cal loss from the delay. That this delay waa not Inspired by any spirit of retaliation was proved by the ac tion of the Cuban Senate in giving us our coaling stations and naval base without waitiag for the United States Congress to complete ratification of the commercial treaty. Under the guidance of President Palma the govern ment of Cuba has steadily main tained an attitude of confidence in the integrity of our purpose to deal justly with the island, and few Americans will fail to feel a sense or relief from a heavy burden of shame when our Congress in extra session next November finally acts on the measure of relief, such as it is, which we promised long ago. There is still some question about the provisions for the Cuban loan of $35,000,000 for the purpose of paying off the revolutionary sol diers, the Senate having adjourn ed before considering a resolu tion passed by the lower house authorizing President Palma to arrangement for the necessary se--curity, and there is some talk in Havana of the need of an extra ses sion to make good the omission. It is not likely, however, that any serious complication will ensue. The natter it la some respects the; most difficult with which President Palma has te deal, and our concern in it, on account of our interest in the obligations which Cuba may undertake, is very deep. President Palma, however, has shown such marked ability in guiding the new hip of state thro men troubled' waters that he may be ' trusted to bring it safely past this reef. ' A Narrow Vista.

It is said that the State and county tax of George W.Vanderbilt, of Buncombe county, for this year will amount to over $10,000. Lipe correspondence Stanley Enterprise: Several of our citizens are thinking of moving to California. If we are to judge by talk we may expect a general exodus from this section soon. At a, sale of seized whiskey in Baleigh by the collector of internal revenue three prominent men of that city bought a barrel of corn whiskey each at $1.17 a gallon for home consumption. Dr. W. S.

The seasons in the Spring were very unfavorable to all vine crops, and consequently the yield of cucumbers was not as good as was expected. There are now in the tanks at the Heinz Company's plant here about 10,000 bushels. Jefferson Recorder: Mr. Bill Gentry is now looking sad on account of being at Mr. Alex. Rose's a few nights ago and drank too much of the good old stuff, and they had to put him in the barn and keep him there all night, and his father had to pay a fine before he could get him out. So you see it's enough to make Billie look sad. Greensboro Telegram: 'Squiie Collins had an ugly looking case up before him yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock. The defendant was Daniel W. Wright, a white man, who gave his age as being 27 years. He was on trial for beating and abusing his wife. He was also shown to be a bigamist, having confessed it. He was sent to jail under a $200 bond to keep the peace with his wife and was fined $20 and costs for assault ing her. She is little more than a girl. Randolph Arqus: A colored divine from Salisbury was holding a meeting here last week and dmring ine services ne told the congrega tion that he had two songs to sing for them; that everywhere else he was paid five dollars each for sing ing them, but because of the friend ly relations between the Asheboro negroes and himself he would rend er the two for five dollars? At once the congregation set to work and raised the money for which they received two fancy ragtime anthems. Kinston Free Press: Mr. C. C.

A scientist witli a rust amount of pa tience has counted the hairs of the hu man bead. In fact, not content with counting one head of hair, he under took several. The results of his inves tigations are curious. Blonds, for in stance, have the trreatest number and those with red hnir the smallest. In no case is there much variation be tween the sexes when the color is the same. Light haired people have be tween 140.000 and 105,000 hairs; bru nettes average only about 105,000 hairs; red haired people do not have much more than 30,000. This means that red hair is coarser tbnn other shades, but it has the advantage of lasting longer. The cmer barriers in the way of the adoption of a generally improved sys tem of agriculture are ignorance and prejudice. Too many men; still think .sld ways good enough for them. Con- (servatism and caution and n decent re gard for one's grandfather are all well enough np to a certain point, but ev ery man should be able to see that the world moves on the farm as well as elsewhere.

Durham Herald : Charged with disturbing religions worship, Thos. Herndon and Walter King, two white men, were before Mayor Free land yesterday and were fined $20 each and coat. They appealed to the Superior Court, and being un able to give the $50 bond required were committed to jail. The two men went to the tent meeting now in progress in Edgemout, and when the invitation was given to go to the 'mourners' bench" they went forward and were soon sound asleep. Their conduct was that of drunken men, so mnch so that one citizen went to the front and took his wife from the 'mourners' bench and car ried her home.

Tfce cotton market opened strong at an advance- of six to twelve points for the nrst nali nour or so, ruled very ex cited and active under covering and more or less buying for long account, based on the firm. .cables and the con tinued heavy demand for spot cotton In the English market, where sales of 14,000 bales were reported, including 8,000 for export. Reports that these 8,000 bales were for shipment here,- presumaoiy io oe delivered on July contracts, only added to the uneasi ness of near by shorts, who accepted tbe statement as indicating that tbe outstanding short interest In July was larger than expected. Ia addition to the higher cables and the approaching maturity of July con tracts the weather map reflected con tinued hot, dry weather in sections of tbe belt and for a time the shorts ap peared utterly demoralized. July, which had closecK on the preceding night at 12.80, was bid up to 13.60 and was not soia until 13.70 was reached, and immediately another sale was re ported at 13.75 or 45 points over the previous high records. In the meantime, the balance of the market had also shown great strength, August being forced up to 12 75, with the general list show ing net gains of thirteen to fifty-five E lints.
