It has been a mya f'1 tery to nearly all citizens here as to how and why Newbern was exempted ' - by the Corporation . Commission. 2 Slight examination ' on their part ' - would have shown them what at leaat . hundreds Saw last week. The state- ments sent out, that the average num ber of tickets excanged here was 28 a day, was believed by no one here ..- v who knew anything about the situa ' tion. The actual number from the ' best of information in recent months , has been twice 28 or over.

"People always discouraged and de spondent do not aueeed in anything, and live only by burdening someone else. The hopeful, confident and cheerful attract the elements of suc cess." So it is with ns all; if we hope for the best and at the same time do our very best we are sore to succeed in anything; we undertake. There is no such word as "Fail" for some of us, because we never give up. No matter how many we ask to sub scribe for the paper and they refuse, it never discourage us, we go on with i smile sad perhaps the next one we ask will cheerfully "come across" with the necessary funds for a year's subscription, and so we are rewarded for our perseverance. There are peo ple who start out full of life and hope and ask some one to take the paper, and if that some one happens to refuse they give right up and think it no use to try. And for such people it is not muoh one for them to try because they are too easily discouraged. It -takes courage to win anything and this baby . Ingomar Last Night, - r Perhaps the best performance ever given by amateurs in ConCord waa the production last night at the opera house of Ingomar by representatives of the Institute and Seminary at Ml Pleasant. The play was given at Mt. neasant Monday night, and , was greeted by a packed" house. Concord people had heard, the : -performance highly complimented, but it remained only to see its rendition last night td fully appreciate what had been said in regard to ii. The success of Ingo mar depended on the ability of the leading characters, which were taken by Hiss Ethelyn Crabtree and Mr, D. B. Welsh. 7-. . 'Miss Crabtree is, with possibly one exception, the most gifted lady who has ever appeared before a Concord audience. Her acting was par excel lence, aa was also that of Mr. Welsh, who were ably supported by other member of the company, all coming in lor a share of well deserved praise. Ihe fact that the coming of Ingo mar was only known her such a short time, only a day, was perhaps the reason a larger house did not greet the players. Marriage of Mr.' Windsor Hntcbin.

America Assodatioa Adopts Report Offered by Xr. Parker's Ooswitu President Cooper's Address. Richmond, Vs May 18. The fea ture of the first day 'a session of the American Cotton Manufacturers' As sociation waa a heated discussion this afternoon between Arthur L. Marsh, president of the New York Cotton Ex change, and Lewis W. Parker, of Grenville, 8. C, ehafrnan of the committee on relatione with cotton exchanges. The occasion was the re port of this committee and the re sult waa practically an open rupture of the strained relations which have existed for some time betwen the as sociation and the exchanges. Mr. Psrker's asertion that the New York cotton exchange caters to specu lators rather than to the needs of legitimate business, and that the prices of cotton have been manipulat ed by members of the exchange to the great detriment of both spinners snd producers, was cheered to the echo by the convention. President Marsh Warmly defended the exchange, point ing out that it is an association of merchants trading in cotton, with rules in the interest of the merchants rather than in that of the manufac turer or the producer. The convention decided in favor of Mr. Parker, adopting the report of tne committee unanimously and con tinuing the committee for further con ference with representatives of the exchanges and with instructions that if relief is not given it shall seek a remedy through legislative channels. The gist of the committee s report is as folows: "Manufacturers' associations should have no fight against coton ex changes if these exchanges truly re- Oeet conditions of spot cotton. On the contrary, an exchange, if legiti mately managed and regulated and if the prices ruling thereon are truly representative of spot, value, is and should be of decided advantage. , to eottoa nmnnfactwrerg, as atao4e ptJ1 ducers:but if, on the contrary, the prices reflected on the exchanges are merely the result of speculation for or against the value of the commodity or if those prices are only reflective of the speculative actions of one ele ment as against another element, the exchange become c serious disadvan tage to the manufacturers and to pro ducers, anl erases to be a legitimate body. "The two principal exchanges in the United Stales are the New Orleans and New Ytifc coton exchanges. Un der the rules of the New Orleans ex change ti.e prices ruling thereon are in' much ci, nt relation to the prices of spot cotton than as a rule are the prices of contracts on the New York exchange, are on a parity- with spot cotton or truly represent the prices of spot cotton in the community of tr trt a QOtrrtM or unn-onM m ' CKtCKIHO JCCOOHJ mm ran monmt roa nstt wscsv MKT TO KJrM OJv MND-SVr DUAW , 9AILT TUB AMOUHt . htiDKV. rifiniiw. in A UOVttHOLD Accoanr ot roa IDUHtHJWOiU CONCORD NATIONAL BANK Capital $100,000 Surplus ISO P' 4 Per Cent.

At other times thev are tnivrh below. "Your committee is forced to eon elude that a majority of the mem bers of the New York exchange are more impressed with the view that it is to their interest to eater to spec ulators than to make of their body a legitimate exchange, reflective of the true value of the commodity in which they deal. "Your committee eeommenda that this association once more expresses its earnest hope thst the cotton ex changes and particularly the New York exchange will rectify their rules so as to make a true and proper rela tion between contract prices and spot cotton; that if these rules be not so properly regulated as to make this relation that your committee be au thorized in the name of the associa tion to present such memorials to the legislative bodies as may lead to a proper regulation by them of the cot ton exchanges." President Cooper, in his annual ad dress, urged the necessity for the South to raise more coton to meet the increasing demand of the manufac turers. "The crop of 1910-11 will be worth $1,000,000,000," he said, "or twice as mueh as the output of all the gold mines of the world combined for the same year. "Crops of 12,500,000 .to 13,000,000 bales annually are neresary for legit imate demands with remunerative prices to the growers. Less than this amount means manipulated markets with unsatisfactory trade conditions. ."While the number of spindles and acreage have increased enormously. the production of American cotton has declined.
