(Sanfurd Kxpress.) Tin.' continuous low price of cotton furnishes food for thought if it does m,t furnish money with which the farmers may pay their ilcbls. North Carolina is' not a cotton State and her farmers cannot raise cotton to compote with the Gulf Slates, Five cent cotton will not pay (ortheniaking nf Ihe' staph). There can be some tiioni'V made by farming in this Slate." Here anil'thero are examples. There is. however, no prolilaablc money crop. In half dozen counties tine tobacco can be grown, which brought 11"' farmers handsome prices untlftlip tobacco trust laid its greedy ami damnable hands upon it. In half dozen others tine corn grows; in smiie others peanuts and rice. In tho sand bill section lino fruit grows. 7rt-' the seaboard and piedmont sec tions cotton grows but not nearly so well as it docs in South Carolina. North Carolina is not a great ag ricultural State, but it is better than any one of the New England States from which we buy some, things that we eat. It. can aiul perhaps will be made a great manufacturing State. It has magnificent water power and can make tor useii a ociici inline than the sample State where a little of everything and not much of any thing is found. The Omaha Imposition, which closed last week, had the Spanish Anicricnn war to contend against during its earlier days, and later po litical distraction operated against it, yet withal, it was a decided finan cial' success.

The stockholders will nave over $100,000 to divide among them selves, and nearly 80 per cent, in dividends will bo paid. This is another evidence of the greatness cf the West.

When American capital and enter prise have been at work a little while in Cuba and Porto Hico Spain will open her eyes at the miuo of wealth that for centuries lay untroubled at her feet.

ARE AMERICANS LOSING INDIVID UALITY? "Are the American people losing their individuality?" (picries Joe M. Chappie, publisher of The .Xulioiml Mmiuiitc, in the November issue. Tho onward tide of corporate and concentrated interests in the past few years lias certainly presented a "serious problem. Vilhnut the tem per of a demagogue or with any in dulgence in ill temper, the wide awake people of the United States arc pondering and thinking. "Fveu the swirl of excitement occasioned by tho war cannot obliterate a growing condition of affairs, that must be .eniedied iii soino way, or it means a revolution that will be serious and far-reaching. The American people arc eoiial to tho .question, and will eventually evolve the correct solution. As long as capital is con gested in certain centres and cor porations swallow up and engulf every appearance of personality and individuality there are going to be deserving ones to suffer and others less deserving prosper, more because of fortunate circumstance than from individual effort or merit in either case. The Xalionnl Mayuim is no alarmist, and dues not seek the role of 'reformer;' but these conditions deserve svpmpathctio consideration. a i.n iivor.iirn nerson is endowed or inspired with an impulse to do good in tlie world. The betterment of mankind is an appeal that always meets i heart v resnonse. Sympathy is one of tjio most susceptible forces in human nature if it count omj oe properly developed.

A Maryland farmers' club which has just' celebrated its tweiitv-liflh anniversary, has for its motto the old proverb: "To feed the land bo fore it gets hungry; to weed it well before it gets dirty; to rest it before it grows weary the marks of a good husbandman." As might be expect ed from an organization which linds its inspiration in principles so just, the club has done a groat deal of good for the section to which it be longs. The ideas so pithily expressed go a long way toward constituting good farming.
