Parmer from thirteen counties,
numbering alsuit .VNt, assembled iu
Mctroiiolitau Hull yesterday at
ihhiu to hear lhtniel J. Sully, the
ex cotton king, deliver bisuiewwge
to the collou grower. Kvery seat
in the bull was occupied. Scores
were standing iu the aisles, the plat
form was crowded with well knowu
collou nien, ami in the galleries
were a few dark it, forming a dark
bu-kgrouud.
Secretary T. Ik Parker nf the
North Carolina division of the
Southern (Villon Association pre
sided, ami Ike Wake ouuuty otti
cent of the association were on the
Maps together with Commissioner
of Agriculture S. U Patterson and
leaders in tlie cotton movement,
w ho seemed to endorse the aetili
incuts expressed liy the man who
haa mastered the cotton markets of
the world.
Mr. Sully' sHch was plain and
hi in lf, easily uudcrstiHsl by any
w bo heard him. He in not an ora
tor, and docs not possess eltHpience,
lull the freiiicut outbursts ol enthu
siastic applause attested the popu
larily of the man, and his speech
seeim-d nil inspiration to the crowd.
Mr. Sully isgau by assuring the
audience of the pleasure it gave
him to express to them a few of the
ideas and thoughts that hud im
pressed him for years. He declared
that one of the most momentous
l motions that hail confronted the
South for a generation wan the
price of cotton, and that this ques
lion is fraught with tivtnendous
possibilities lor either good or evil.
"If the prices go lower," he ex
claimed, "every industry iu the
Southern Statin will In- disorgan
ized t hereby." He waded into his
subject without further prelimina
ries, and said:
"Today there in organized nil
over Europe the Spinners' Confed
eration, and they have for eighty
yeara Isrll living on the pnsiucts
of American soil. Eumieuua have
siient many millions of dollars in
endeavors to raise cotton on their
territories, but every experiment
proving a failure it haa liccu dem
onstrated that no future attempt
can succeed. They have learned
now that the cotton growers of the
Routhern portion of the 1'nited
Slates have organized, and that
with a cron of I I.IMhi.oimi haled the
organized farmera kept the prices, and are willing to get ihick, ami
them that the South if once on its
feet firmly, as it was iu 1WKI and
I'MH, and continues so during this
year, they will never see cheap
cotton again (applause), and they
are out and hound to break the
price of cotton.
"If the whole South, its farmers,
tanker and merchants, determined
to sell for not less than 10 cent,
and bold the Maple thiee weeks
they will get 11 and li cents, for
the Eurois-aii manufacturers are to
day wiling their cotton goods on
the basis ol 1.' ceiita cotton, and
Americau tnanufactureni ou the
basis of M cents collou, and they
ar realizing good profits and divi
dends ou their mills. The spinners
will not give more (ban li cents foi
cotton if they can purchase at that
price.
A week ago we had the Wash
ington Bureau report of 71.1' Hashed
throughout the cottoii world, and
it broke cotton price PJ5 points,
which means $ii per !ale. On the
preseat crop it means that if the
cottou wero sold for prevailing
pric-s there would lie a loss o.
.4,lMMi,(NNi to the growers. What
is 71.St It was billowed by the
weather nport which indicated
that till to 70 mt cent, of the crop
was picked, and 71.'.' therefore
means the condition of the present
plant. As soon as the world real
Uea that there are not PJ.IMHi.mm
Me of cotton it will lie avaricious
in giving yon l.'i cents, for the
world is consuming 1l',."hi0,(Iihi
(talcs. If this crop is what I he
lieve it is, the world this year will
not sec lil,'.'.'"i,000 bales of cottou.
If not, and you hold your cotton
until the true dition is realized,
you will obtain 10, II, l'J and II
cuts for cotton. The world must
get it, and is already selling gtssls
ou thai bufis.
"As far as interest goes, there
was never a time when the mnnictl
men of the world were so much in
favor of high prices for cotton.
Wall Street is not against you, but
it is opposed to low prices, Isvause
the entire country is prosperous,
and high prices for cotton will
bring more money and gold hack
into this countiy from Kurope.
There is not a Is-ar of any conse
quence, w ho would he unwilling to
give II cents, and except for the
71.2 reiort I hey themselves would
have evcu given 1 1 cents. These
men are scared ol the 'condition,
up fairly well, and now, as Kuroie
has found that cotton cannot lie
grown elsewhere, the spinners over
there are trying to break the price
of cotton, sons to put it where it
w ill never rise iigaiu. The Euro
caii spinners are using lit) per cent,
of the cotton of the South. If they
can get it at (i cents they will never
again attempt to cultivate the
will give you, the masters of the
entire situation, 11 cents for cot
ton, 1'.' the month after and 1't the
month after that, when they know
the true situation. The only inter
est opposed to you are the entire
spinners of Kurope. They are tie
terniiucd to put the price of cotton
down. 1'ultiiig the price of cotton
down not only hurts the fanner.

"There in another roinarkalile
diet that should receive a great
amount of thought from the fai in
etx of the South. Iu no portion of
the nlolie is the spinning industry
increasini; inure rapidly than in
t lie Southern States. l!ut tlie spin
ner of t lie. South has arrayed against
hi iu the Maine force that are op
Mscd to the Southern farm. Uy
depressing cotton early in the mar
ket the Kiirnpean spinneis jmr
chased eotton cheaper than the
Southern spinners Isuiht it, and
iim their Inhor wa clieaper they
iiianufartiired and wild cotton goods
cheaiHT, wtting up a furiiiidalile
coin mI itiiMi to tho American man
ufactured jjimkIs. They obtain
freight rates " cents cheaper the
hundred than do the New Kuglainl
pinners, nnd by their Ntitsidi.cd
ships they obtain freight on the
water rheaHr, and they sell ellcct,
ively in competition with Ameri

of the world's cotton supply. The
Kiiropean spinners are alarmed lest
the time soon come when instead
if using jM'r cent, of this supply
of Americau cottou the American
mills will manufacture the full Ml
imt cent., and I declare this time
to lie not f.r distant. Within 20
years "" per cent, of the Americau
supply w ill lie consumed by Anieri
cau spinners, anil 50 ikt cent, in
the South, and it is thus clearly
secu to le to the interest of the
spinners of the South to uphold the
price ol cotton.
I am gr.it ilied to hear that the
hankers of the South tire for and
with the Southern farmers, and
will give all tlie facilities necessary
to carry cotton at the prices the
farmers want. As soon as it is
known that a dig crop will not 1m
marketed the price you demand is
votlis. ( Applause).
I am alisolutelv sure that It
does not make any difference w hat
the wars do, for the more and
harder they ram, the higher the
prices will go, if the farmers will
but hold their cotton two or three
weeks. If a liear sells a hale today,
there is no surplus for him, he
must buv a bale from you to re
place it.''

A Judicious Inquiry.
A well known traveling man who visits

druKgixts inquire ol customers who
asked for a cough medicine, whether
it was wauled for a child or (or an
adult, and if for a child they almost
invariably recommendedChamberlains
Cough Remedy. The reason (or this
is that they know there is no danger
from it and that it always cures. There
is not the least danger from it and
that it always cures. There is not Ibe
least danger in giving it, and for

Some Seasonable Advice.
It may'be a piece of superfloua advice
to urge people at this season of the
year to lay in a supply of Chamber
Iain's Cough Remedy. It ii almost
sure to be needed before winter
over, and much more prompt and eat
isfactory results are obtained when
taken as loon as a cold is contracted
and before it has become settled in (he
system, wbicb can only be done by
keeping the remedy at band. This
remedy is so widely known and so al
together good that oo one should ties
ilale about buying it in preference to
any other. It is for sale by (.. N

lengthen their school terms.
1 held a meeting at Allan in tlie
mid summer. Among the good re
suits of that meeting was the deep-
r awakening of the people in the
community 011 the subject of a good
school. An effort was at once Is'
gun to raise by private subset ip-
tion an amount sullicieut, together
with the public school fund, to se
cure a continuous scliool term 01
ight or nine months under the
tuition of a first class teacher. It
a matter of rejoicing that this
lloit lias Ih'cii successful and the
school is assured. Through the
kindness of Mrs. Waller Hclk, the
owner of the excellent school build
ing at Allan, the school will lie
conducted iu that house so well
idapted to the work.
Also I have become very much
interested in the establishment of
schiHil at Mineral Spring. It
seems to me that it would 1m an
xccedingly wise thing to move to
the station tlie school iu theilistt ict
that lies east of the railroad. Iet
the western boundary of that dis
trict lie extended sullicieiitly far to
include the incorporate limits of
the town. This would give a good
school patronage, not too far from
inyoiie. An effort is now U-iug
mailt to build a suitable building
at tin-slat ion. Any assistance given
these M'ople Irotii the county
schooM'iind w ill In' very appropri
ately rendered. They are moving
in the matter with a vie ol a long
school term. A committee of citi
zens was ntmoihtcii last night to
devise a plan of a house and csti
mate the cost, etc.
And so the good work goes on,
and may theliord continue to bless
it. T. .!. A I I isux.

1 11 addition to this regular preach

with Kev. T. J. Allison doing
most of the preaching. At Morgan

lor some days with much interest
and good attendance. Six or seven
made profession of faith ill ( hrist,

t I nionville also the school
building is used for public worship

when we hope a splendid meeting
w ill Is- held.
The Methodists kindly granted
us the use of their church at Indian
Trail for preaching and gcasl cou
gregations attended.
It is gratifying to note the spirit
of harmony in christian work in
our county. There is room for all
who are working to advance the
kingdom of (!sl and for tlie salva
tion of souls through Jesus Christ.
Some sections of the county need
more christian workers, both as
teachers and ministers. It is my
prayer that the laborers now in the
held may have continued and
abundant blessings on their efforts
and that true fruit may lie more
and more manifest from year to

Full of Tragic Meaning
are these lines from J. II. Simmons
of Casey, Iowa. Think what might
have resulted from his terrible
cough if he had uot taken the med
icine aliout which he writes: "I
bad a feat fill cough that disturbed
my night's rest. I tried everything
but nothing would relieve it until
I took Dr. King's New Discovery

which completely cured me." In

cures all throat and lung diseases;

1 GonveiileiiGe and safety.
I These are the characteristics of the modern banking biwi-
ness. No man who wishes to have his money in an absolute-
ly safe place can afford to let it stay out of the bank. There
I it is not only safe, but there it can be best and most easily
1 used by him. When you have a bank account you are never
I bothered about making change or sending money off. All
I you have to do is to write a check on your bank. All this
1 saving costs you nothing. When you deposit money we give
5 you a check book free and charge you nothing for keeping
S the account, and you can take all the money out whenever
I you want to. If you want to leave it for a stated time we
s will pay you interest on it,
I Fat your money where it will serve you best, and where
I neither burglars nor fire can touch it
The People's Bank is the olddst and largest bank in this
section, and has a lonor and splendid history for honesty,
safety and liberal treatment of its customers. We want every
man in Union county who hasn't already a bank account to
open one wiCh us. We take large or small accounts.
