Th D. Qs could be lcept in tlie over coat pockets. : Our North Carolina farmers show a disposition to hold their cotton for at least 10 cents. What is really better, as a rule we believe they are able to hold, at least a portion, large numbers of them all, of their crop.; Within the last ten days cotton deal ing firms and speculators in New York have issued circulars and statements and have flooded the rural' post offices of the fr.r south with them, "estinia ting" the present crop anywhere from 11VS to 12 million bales. Our informa tion in the meantime ! . does hot change the opinion we advanced about the first of this month, that the crop would be nearer the 10 than the 11 million figure. If it is fully ll mil lions, under existing world conditions as to cotton it is a 10-cent crop. There are elements of discouragement hot to eay positive disturbances in othtr de partments of trade and commerce which have a bearing updii cottdri as well as all other prices, i These show themselves In England and Europe aS Impressively as in these States and must be taken into consideration in forming opinions as to what IS best to be done with cotton as well as other products or articles of traffic. We are free to say that the most dis couraging sign of the times is the de cline in the iron and Steel industry and of values dependent upon or related to that interest. "Iron is the barometer of trade" has been, and up to the present at least is still, j Many plants have recently closed I and other may be, because of the lack of orders to justify their continuance at work. This lack of orders Indicates a lack df business in other branches of indus try, and altogether cause a decrease in! consumption, affecting cottbh and the products bf cotton 'along with othei necessities of living. People thus re stricted in their employment and In come will of necessity be restricted in their purchases and consuming power. This is the cloud now overhanging thts cotton as well as the commercial and Industrial world, generally; hot large enough as. yet to threaten actual disas ter, but still large enough to call for great caution. It may Soon blow over, it is earnestly to be hoped it will, and if so, nothing now within our sight can keep cotton below 10 cents even if It .. . i . . uues nut ruie some nigner.

When it was shown that our whiskey - bill reached the Startling suni of $174,000 per an num, it .was a serious question with us, Speaking collectively of course,' as jto how we could possibly get home af- ter a day's hard .work without police protection or the assistance of the wa ter -department. In reading over the returns to the tax assessors of the amount on hand -at tax listing time, ? however, we are sobered up considerably; We find that while we carry $237,662 worth of kitch en furniture, &c., $122,409 cool cash and-more than a half million of col vent and Soluble credits, a way tip In the thoiisands of eltocks and bonds a little fluctuative Just now, but still taxable we only had $160 worth .of good red liquor all told. If this does not come as near to real prohibition in a. community of 20,000 thirsty folks we can't tell what could be. Why" we ha.ve $42,000 worth bf musical instru ments, and carry around without fear ci tti law, the flesh or the firo depart ment $4,500 worth of hair-trigger fire arms, warranted to go off with or with out provocation. , All of which admonishes us, since Some Of our brethren Of the press are complaining that the price of dia monds and coal has advanced. The public could stand as it would have go to help the poor laborers who own go to help the poor laborers who run the mines, but to add to the' cost of diamonds is nothing short of a ca lamity and amounts to an oppression.
