stock of cotton for the season.
"The consumption of American
cotton throughout the world is enor
mous, and at today's prioes I do not
think a single spinner will stop,
whereas at the figures of last week
li to U cent above today's markets
large numbers of spinners in Eu
rope wonld have become idle.' This
break will exhilarate the movement
of ootton to Europe, and if the. orop
becomes distributed and once in the
hands of the consumers, then specu
lation will take hold of it and pat It
to a figure which has perhaps not
been reached yet 1 " . , .: .;r .-"
' "It is one thing to undertake to
oorner ootton in Ootober, when the
volume of receipts is enormous, and
another to take up a boll campaign
in the spring of the year, when the

the way, -stocks then being very

DB. G. BLAOKHAJbl., . Who IS
the foremost advocate of good roads
' in North Carolina, says that in the
: county of Oteega, N. Y alone, there
are 200 unproved road machines. In
some other New York counties there
is a larger number. What percent
of this number has Wake county T
It may be answered thai Wake is
not without machines, bat we can
not have too many, and there is
nothing more important to the ma
terial welfare of any section than to
have the latest road improving
machinery.

Ths Baltimore Snn, the Washing

calling attention to the signs of pros

did tobacco crop, the marketing of
ootton and the circulation of money
thereby resulting. " The Bun goes on
to say that the Pbjbs-Visztob takes
a hopeful view of the situation. In
deed there is every reason why we
. should do so. A very observing gen
tleman .who comes to Raleigh re
marked to us that he saw more busi

that we have every evidence of pros

INMAN ON COTTON.
Mr. John H. Inman of New York,
who is probably the largest individn
al cotton operator in the world, and
who is credited with having made
more than a quarter of a million
dollars out of the recent sensational
break in ootton, made this oomment
on the decline and the subsequent
recovery in the price of the staple
"The congestion of cotton, which
has taken place for the last several
weeks, and which culminated last
Wednesday,' was the result of wild
speculation of Americans to carry
- thepricetolOoents.
"Prioes were carried so high last
week that it was perfectly apparent
to any sensible man who is accus
tomed to deal in ootton that if he
wanted to operate at all there was
, nothing to do bat shut bis eyes snd
selL -
"-Regardless ot what the crop is
likely to be,' ootton was carried
entirely too high, at least for the
time being. Reactions came more
: quickly and sharper than any of us
expected, bat : with ' this : enormous
-liquidation the atmosphere . will
' gradually cleat and the movement
of prioes will now be regulated by
the volume of receipts ; and the
probable ontoome of the crop.
r "If the orop is only 6,600,000 bales,
as many honest and well informed
men appear to believe, cotton, in my
opinion, will work back to the neigh
borhood of 10 cents before the season
. is over. On the contrary, if we have
7,000,000 bale?, as some other stanl
ard authorities estimate, the crop
we are now selling is at a fair valua
tion. ; 'yV. ":'-'V;
"I thought for some weeks that the
market estimate of tbe orop which we
cqu nm&e is tne mean oi tnese eg
Vary more in Dries nerhana than
any ether article sold. Yon do not
