What a Texai Corretpondaot 8ayi of
, : SUutloa.--LUU4 Probability of
Enlarging State Capitol
" Bnlldlng,
Raleigh, Jn 17-Very little talk ii
heard abont eolarglng the Capitol, and
It 1 not' believed that any inch irQl be
taken. Mr Charlei E. Johnaon, a proln
Inent resident here make a valuable
suggestion, this being that the State par
ehate propaity facing theCkpitol Square
which It can do at reasonable figures,
and on inch property erect special
buildings, using the Capitol solely for
the Legislature and for committee roomi
This plan is an excellent one. The
Capitol ia too beautiful, Mr Johnson
and others say to be spoiled by addi
tion.
Edgar Parmalee Is here In regard to
the Cape Fear River Pilotage bill, which
is to come op before the Legisla
ture. 1
A well known Texas man writer your
correspondent a very interesting letter
abont the cotton situation. He Is a
great buyer and thoroughly acquainted
with conditions In 'Texas and In other
cotton growlnj Stater-, as he travels I
rr - .1 , , . 1
wiuvijr. av hji wore it oniy one saiva
tlon for the farmer snd the Booth In
general and that Is a large reduction in
the scieige for eottcn. Burning cotton
and holding it will be of no avail unless
the acreage Is very materially reduced.
Any fair-minded man knows that the
burning of cotton Is fool-hardy, for far
too many rations to explain, and on the
other hand If the Booth holds over un
til the next crop one million or even two
million bales and plants another large
crop, It will be far worse eft than It Is
now. Therefore there ti bat one thing
to do, this being to reduce the acreage
very materially, ose less fertiliser, and
by havlog leas land la cotton the farm
ers can cultivate that land more thor
oughly and reduce the ecet of producing
cotton. Tsias will reduce her. acreage
without a doubt and will also hold over
snd take caie of her share of the very
large crop, which the South has raised.
As Is shown by Mr Hester's figures Texas
has marketed, 1I.CO0 baleelees op to Jan
u y 1st, thin up to that date the 7 tar
before, la eaiUlnly doing her duty and
feels that her sitter Stales will .a'as do
the atme. Cotton should not. sell tor
le e than ten cents Last year it was
too large. This year It it four oents too
chesp, eqolva'eat to twenty dollars per
bale but If the Booth ralaea such another
orop we will see next year stll) lower
prices. Bo therefore that every farmer
red note acreage aad not esybg "My
neighbor will redloo, I will not", for If
they do thty will be worse off thaa they
erenow. Let each mta help the ether
and doat lay "Well, I had sense and
sold my ecttoa early, at a rood orloe. to
will plant a large crop tali vtar." be
cause If tkey will not be ableataay
time next year to get area a lair price,
