AhcJikielp Ci jEM&tt n,ng guests I arriving and derartin during The cotton farmers of the South are confronted by a situa tion worse .'-than that of 1844 and 1897: when cotton sold as" low as 4 3-4 cents per pound. There was about a:: million bales then. Accordinp; to government reports the crop this y eaf is es timated at f ourteen million bales. It is said" the mills of the South and Canada . will consume six million bales, this will leave eijtht mHHonWsurplus, as Eng land, France and Germany who have beeil buying this much and more.are at war. How can the farmers handle this cotton with out sacrificing it to the enrich ment of speculators? Upon the solution of. this problem depends their salvation. We ought to study this problem by the light of experience to arrive at a true and sensible conclusion. Sup pose inl894 when there was a surplus f amillion bales, that a .million and half bales had been stor in warehouses and financed by bankers, what would have, been thei result? Every student with any knowledge of the low supply and demand, knows it woild have ; sold for tenSents pepni:lm jCotimu'iHb whether it islb w orj hlghv' abut prefer to buy it at a low figure, because they get more out of the manufactured product. That year there .was no co-operation among the farmers and cotton was rushed upon the market and became a football with specula tors with great loss to the farm ing community. In, 1894 and '97 twenty thousand farms were sold in North Carolina to pay' debts. During the Civil War cotton sold in New York for one dollar per pound in gold and the close of hostilities nearly brought this much. In 186f, two years lafter the war, it sold for 25 cents per pound. Why was this ljighjprice? Because there was not enough raised to supply the demand of , the factories. These are historical facts by which farmers ought to be guided. Hon. A. W. McLean of Lum- ! berton. says there must be co operation among bankers, mer chants, 4 fertilizers dealers and cotton farmers, but the impor tant thing that is urged is that the cotton farmer take the step upon which this co-operation is built.; There ought to be held as" early, as possible a meeting at every town in Bertie county of cotton farmers, . bankers and merchants to co operate in build ing war eho uses and financing the cotton. The plan .adopted by : the ' Wilmington board ; of tradeZis a practical oh The fferieralj government has putat the command ot DanKS lacuiues for securing; adequate, currency for all legitimate, purposes, and now it is up to the farmers to avail; themselves of this 'oppor tunity to save, themselves from loss and ruin. Bertie will , make about ten thousand bales of cot ton this year and warehouses at Gplerain: Windsor, Aularider, Lewiston and Roxobel would we believe J store half of , the crop, fivethousand; bales,.- financed by the?bhn!:D in thcia towns with- Ebenezer church 5thl Saturday and Sunday. v.

He was one of tKe most eloquent preachers of C his day. He was full of Christian charity, loving all people. Hewas tolerant of the religious opinion and belief of p others - ; He ' was broad and liberal : in his churchmanship. He took active part in all tho movements for. the uplift of tho people of the Stated The Epis copal church suffers a distinct loss. 0 course.' aiiother Bishop will be elected under the ma chinery of that church. But, -men of his character,- life and teachings are rare. He 1 has left beliirid a name for Godly life and teaching that few possess. Tho account of his burial shows how people of other creeds loved him, Thousands attended the cere mony. He was buried under the chancel of St. James' church, Wilmington, by the grave of Bishop Atkinson; Bishop Strange ' married a decendent of (Gover nor Davy Stone of -this county.
