Speaking of the great drop in cotton,
Henry Cws sad: “When cotton «M
k ng (so-ca led) the larged! crop pro-
duced was just prior te the War, 4.0004300
bales, the biggest yield up to that period.
Last year the cr ;> was 8,3004)00 bales.
This crop more than doubles the best
crop when slavery exi: ted, and cotton, as,
king, has been rlethro. c,' by com, which
now rules as king of crops. Under free
labor the cotton crop has more than
doubledinits yearly product that pro-
duced by slavery and the price has been
almost been cut in two besides. The only-
hope lor the south is to keep the yidu
hereafter down to about 743004300 bales
and ti.l the roil for other products to take
the place of cotton. Then, and not udtil
then, can the price of cotton be con-
trolled and kept up to a paying basil and
the south again return to pmeperity. The
suuth is now almost bankrupt by an over-
production of their one big crop of cot
ton. due to the low price now for the
stulf and no market for the surplus. The
differ nee to the south in dollars end
ents as between 1 it; and JC is equal to
at least $160,000,000. The advice of
the farmers' alliance, urging cotton grow-
ers to ho.d back their product for higher
prices, has entailed a loss of probably 3c
a pound to those who were so influenced,
which is equal to $1 >74300,000. Simi-
lar advice was inure recently given to the
producers of wheat in the west, notwith-
standing that the price at the time was
St.10 a bushel in Chicago. The differ-
ence between that price and the present
would be equal to $1104300,000 loss on
the crop. It is, therefore, very plain that
it would be a good thing for the farmers
if (he farmers’ alliance would go out of
business instead of trying to mislead their
followers in so pernicious and ruinous
a manner.’’

There is one section of the interstate
commence law that appears to hay*
closed until the new crop ol wheat comes
in. This move is made necessary by
the fact that the company can not afford
to ship wheat into Ballinger from a dis-
tance, and the further fact that the wheat
is not to be had in Runnels county to
keep the wheels running. Certainly no
farmer will plant cotton this season
when he can make a better profit on
wheat and sell it here at home.—Ballin-

The democratic party is not likely to
nominate a man for president this year
who was once a republican; therefore
General Palmer, Governor (foies and Ex-

A few big business failures are taking
place, but the mortality in this direction
is not so great as it was twelve months

The popular movement for election of
United States senators by vote of the
people is des ined to be one of the most
important subjects d/scusaed by this con

great subjects of national interest upon
which party lines will not be drawn,
For the six months closing 1891 the

were $54306,113. In the last half of the
year lust closed gained over the last half
of the year preceding in the export ol
breadstuff: $100,000. This is almost in-
credible. It meatis good times.

Mills' sensational campaign was
opened at Waco la« Saturday. About
fitly persons were present, including
number of aspirao • for his present star
in congress, and it is quire probable tha\
what the Ne* fork W.orid terms hi*
“fool, friends” were well represented.

didate for congress to succeed Mill*) said
-he was a Mills man because he was a
democrat. Mr. Mills wa* the political
