When the last legislature pasted
the Watts bill, alkming li jum to be
manufactured only in incorixiratal
town, there was treat effort to get
many cruss-ruAcls poiuU incu poratni
u towns in order that tiisullariet
miht be run there. 1L8 of these
frojtvU were defeated, but three
places, which have since beevme fa
mous, Advance, Shore, and Williams,
were incorporated, against tl.e earn
est protest of many of the ret resen
tativea of the temperance cause in
the State. The Ward bill, which has
passed the Senate and will pass the
House, will abolish these by making
it unlawful for towns of less than
1,000 inhabitants to license distil
leries. Mr. X. Glenn Williams, the
proprietor of the big distillery plant
in Yadkin county that goes by his
name, is making a tight to save Lis

This paper has no ill-will towards
Governor Glenn. It really hates to
see a governor of the SUte putting
himself in so many bad positions.
The statements made by the Virginian-Pilot
in the article on the last
page of this paper, regarding the
State for the time being. Mr. Wil- fearful ramifications of power of
liams lias written the following open Standard Oil, are startling, but no
letter to the leiiisl.tture:
"Gentlemen of the General Assembly:
"In 1!KI3, after the passage of the
Watts bill, the general assembly that
passed that law incorporated my
place for the express purjiose and
with the express iutention of permit
ting a continuance of my business.
This business was founded 137 years
ago by my great grandfather. Ac
cepting the contract made with me
by the general assembly of North
Carolina, 1 have conducted as clean
and straight a business as is con
ducted by any man in the Suite, irre
spective of its character. I have not
sold, or permitted to be sold, any
whiskey in my place. Never having
tasted a drop of whiskey in my life,
I have required of my employes an
equally strict sobriety. The taking
of a drink by an employe of mine is
a known cause for dismissal. 1 have
kept the strict letter as well as the
spirit of the law that created and
permits my business, honestly, faith
fully and truly.
"Further: After the law incorpo
rating my place was passed, relying
on the good faith of tiie great Demo
cratic party, of which myself ami my
ancestors have ever been loyal ad
herents, I put into the business so
created and permitted, all the sav
ings and earnings of myself and my
fathers. I went further in my blind
faith in the party s promises to me
and the legislative sanction of that
promise, and invested, or caused to
be invested, in that business i 10,
000 of foreign capital. No act of
mine can 1 assigned as reason for
the destruction of my business. I
have kept every line of my engage
ment to tne Muse. And now it is
proposed by passing the Ward bill
to destroy me and mv lifetime's work
and savings. All that I have in the
world is in that business, put there
in reliance upon my party's promise.
The violation of that promise breaks
the party's faith and bankrupts and
pauperizes me. Since the first of
last October, with an unshaken faith
in the party's sense of fairness, I
have spent in advertising my bnsi
ness in foreign States not less than
10,000.
"There is no temperance feature
in the Ward bill; it docs not strike
the seller, but wipes out the local
manufacturer. Its effect is not to
reduce by one gallon the sale of w his
key in North Carolina, but to replace
liquor manufactured in the State
with liquor manufactured by the
whiskey trust. You break faith with
me in order to fatten the whiskey
trust, and give to it the exclusive
control of the whiskey tratlic in the
State. I appeal to you for fair deal
ing, and for the continuance of my
business life. Very respectfully,
"X. Glens Williams."
There are two points of interest in
this production. The first is the
ridiculous presumption that this man
shows in claiming that the St ite hi
made a contract with him. The
other is his ostentatious display of
bis own sobriety. It is a mighty
mean cook who will hatch up a broth
that he knows will injure his fellow
men, and knows it so well that he
dares not partake of it himself. We
have more respect for the poor old
soak who drinks liquor because he
can't help it, than for the sober man
who is too strong to drink it himself,
but. will, for the profit that's in it,J
make it to sell to the poor devils who
can't help . drinking it After con
cluding his letter, Mr. Williams sub
mits for the edification and instruc
tion of the members of the legislature
number of letters from prominent
Democrats over the State who say
that bis atillhouM should not be dis
turbed. The first letter on the list
is this one:
"State of North Carolina,
"Executive Department,
' "Raleigh, January 27, 1905.
"Dear Sir; Your letter received.
You know my views on whiskey;
also my views on the Watts law.
Two years ago I did not think it was
flood politics to incorporate isolated
places such as yours, Myrtle and
Shore, but the Democratic party in
good faith did so, and you in good
faith have carried out literally your
'part of the contract You have kept
a decent place and allowed no drunk
enness or liquor selling around your
place, and, relying upon the contract
made with you dj the legislature, i
have invested a large amount of
money in the business. For these
reasons, without any hesitation, I tell
all members that it seems to me that
it would be bad faith if they should

Sam Jones on Cotton Situation,
There is a most undelinable, un-

things in the cotton situation. Guano
manufacturers are at sea. There has
been less movement to date in com
mercial fertilizers than any year in
ten years. Evidently guano is cut
L'o per cent, by the cotton growers
It looks now like the Southern farm
er is going to cut his acreage, but
am not betting on that fact. Kvi
dently thev are holding their cotton
and if they will hold on they are
going to g:ve somebody a lot of
trouble. There is many a fellow in
Wall street sold short A little later
along they are going to want cotton
bad. I suppose cotton will be 8 cents
by March 1st. It may be !) cents by
Mav 1st and it mav be 10 cents by
June 1st. It all depends upon two
things: First, the farmer holding
onto what he has got, and the dem
onstration by actual facts and fig
ures, that the acreage has been cut
23 per cent. It looks like Providence
is now favoring the cotton growers.
No plowing has been done scarcely,
or will be done by the 1st of March
And I daresay "5 per cent, of last
year's crop is about all they can put
in now. 1 he South should look to
and plant with the ten million bale
crop alwavs in view. If they have
got sense enough they will do it If
they haven't, what they will or won't
do the angels can t tell. So far,
bully boys!

of this association is to reduce the
consumption of fertilizers for cotton
