THREE STRONG MEN IN COUNSEL.
When the governors of North Carolina and Alabama meet with
the governor of Georgia for consultation over the Southern railroad sit
uation there will be a symposium of three strong men upon the results
of whose deliberations the South and country will wait with Interest and
anxiety. ■" ~
Perhaps no three men within the present disturbed and progressive
period of Southern history have established more strongly their char
acter and Individualities upon the times than these three chief executives
of three Southern states.
Governor Glenn, of North Carolina, is a masterful, stalwart, honest
man. He bears mmn his face the Imprint of a strong character and of
sterling Integrity. He ,3 Independent, he Is brave and ho Is honest, and
unless we mistake he was the first man to begin the practical assertion
of states’ rights against federal Interference In the railroads of tho-coun-
try.
Our owi| governor. IloUe Smith. Is perhaps the best known and most
distinguished or the three executives. He has long been a forceful and
dominant personality In the affairs of Georgia and of tho South. Without
ever having held a Mitlcal office, he went straight from a lawyer’s
desk to tin* secretaryship of the Interior Department under Mr. Cleve
land and Ills administration of that most intricate and difficult ot all
departments or the government was by the testimony of William L.
Wilson the wonder and admiration of the Cleveland cabinet and tho
public men of Ills times. The governor's campaign in Georgia was the-
most remarkable In the history of tho South, and doubtless made It easier
for Governor Glenn and Governor Comer to nght their own battles In tho
other states. With the clear head of a lawyer and tho bold heart of a
statesman. Governor Smith will doubtless bring a great force Into this
conference.
(loventpr Comer, of Alabama, has shown as high an order of civic
courage and resolution as any executive that that commonwealth has
ever known, anti lit these qualities he Is not surpupaed by any governor
of a Southern atate. With lit the last two months the clearness and
dauntless force of Ills imslflona has done an much to compel a' respect
for the people by the corporations as any man In authority lit tho coun
try. In all tho evidence that wo have scon there is not a touch of dema
gogy er political cowardice about tho governor of Alabama. When Mr.
Hi.van wan here he declared that Governor Comer’s handling of the rate
question has established hint ns one of Iho fairest and most forceful
public men ho lmd ever known.
And so tvo cannot have too soon the coming together of .these three
strong inen who have cares enough for ten. Wo are thoroughly con
vinced that a consultation betwcon thsso publicists will develop wise
and prudent lines of policy fer all of its and that their co-operation and
standing togothcr will make It easier for each state to win when Its sis
ter state stands roady to give even and eager battle to selfishness en
grafted In wealth.
May the conference be speedy and may It be followed by many more.

CREDIT TO CORTELYOU AND MORGAN.
Granted that Plerpont Morgan’s vigorous Intorest In the stilling of
tho financial tumult In New York and his powerful work in bringing back
tranquillity and steadfastness to trade was largely beneficial to himself
and to the great interests which ho held In commission.
But with all that tho matt who does the public a service In any
way Is entitled to public recognition anil to public appreciation without
grudging and without snarl.
The South, It Is true, passed through this financial flurry without a
tremor or a disturbance in Its entire realm of trade. But there can be
no doubt thnt If the disaster had gone further nnd struck deeper Into
the financial vitals of the great money centers. It would Inevitably and
In Fplto of our solid environment have touched nud troubled tho South.
And so to tho strong mam of the Treasury who went resolutely to
the tout, of the trouble and put the money of the government behind
the banks of thfe people—nlul to the man of Wall Street vvho revived
Ids strength nnd renewed his youth In the masterful vigor with which
he grappled with this great situation—to all these the country Is under
obligations for the services, whatever tlielr motives, that were'Strong
enough and wlso enough to avert a panic nnd to preserve the status of
trade throughout tho country. .
ft is n very weak man nnd a very mistaken man who would Imagine
that these great financial men are altogether bad or that they are of that
monstrous mold which tho cartoonist is too much given to making ns
believe. •
We differ largely with these men In many questions of public Inter
est. We protest gome of their methods and will continue to protest them
until these methods are revised, but wo have no doubt that at heart
these men who control these grcnl interests are very much like ourselves
nutl add to the supreme Interest which they give to their own nffalrs n
very true and genuine concern for tho welfare of tho country at largo.
Whatever they may be—In this particular Instance tho country Is
tinder obligations which must be acknowledged to Secretary Cortelyou
nud Plerpont Morgan.
REVIEWING THE COTTON SPINNERS’ TRIP.
The foreign spinners have finished their trip through tho cotton belt.
They entered the belt at the eastern end end traveled leisurely
through It to the western limit.
They were n shrewd and observant set of men and they learned more
about cotton nnd the cotton farmer than they ever know before.
Much was expected as a result of the three days’ conference at
Atlanta, not u few believing that a closer acquaintance would bo of great
benefit to the producer, in that It was thought some method would be
agreed upon whereby they could trade directly with each other, thus
eliminating tho speculative exchanges am) tho middleman. It was claimed
that the spinner was opposed to speculation, not from u moral viewpoint, -
hut bccausa prices were nmdo to fluctuate widely between two extremes—
cay 1S1-2C during the Sully hull campaign nnd about Cc In 1S98-99 during
a bear campaign. A fixed price. U was thought, could bo agreed upon.
This w-as not accomplished. The vlcwa of the buyer and seller differed
widely.
Later a resolution asking congress to enact a law prohibiting specu
lation In cotton futures was voted down. They had met their ‘‘friend
the enemy” In a solidly organized body. It did not take them long to
ascertain that every man of them was a ’’bull”—that is, that ovor.v man
favored better prices than those current a# the time of the conference.
They were also made aware of the fact that the Southern states
"bad already legislated "bucket-shops" out of Its territory. To this fact
can bo attributed the sudden change of front by the spinners la reference
to speculation. The bulls had been rendered powerless to net, and
prices would of necessity tend toward the lower extreme, as the bears
arc In control now.
They were willing to eliminate the middleman provided the farmer
would furnish something better. •
The spinners have not supported the market—the English market
for the past few days showing the greatest weakness.
Tho following figures show the decline In prices since the opening
of the conference to Saturday, October 26:
THE ALBANY SPIRIT TO THE FORE.
The country haB come to look upon the "Atlanta Bptrit” as epitomiz
ing all that Is progressive, modern and potential, but another city In
Georgia has and la making an effective bid for similar honors.
Now we are to have the "Albany spirit,” which is to mean as
much t^ tho growing, prosperou^%outh Georgia country as the "Atlanta
spirit” does to north Georgia and the entire South, And this comment
la brought forth by the Greater Albany Edition of the Albany Herald,
Issued last Saturday.
This magnificent edition consists of 100 pages, superbly compiled.
Written, Illustrated and printed. The full significance of this Issue will
dawn upon the reader when It Is known that Albany Is a elty of only
11,000 people. A paper of proportionate size. Issued for Atlanta would
mean an edition of 1.250 pages!
This edition Is literally packed with advertising, the bulk of it
from Albany merchants. In tills connection oue of the lending editorials
If “Albany‘on the Evo, of Prohibition." As this edition as u toil
Editor McIntosh delivers a powerful sermon. Ilo says thnt It proves
that the business men of Albany have no font- of tho effects of prohibi
tion, and that not one believes that any attendant 111 will come to
business. •
t)ne striking "feature of the edition Is a full page article on “Our
Great State," written ' by Governor Hoke Smith. It Is patfked with solid
facts and sound good sense. The owners of the Herald assert, with
probably no one to. dispute, that It Is the largest edition of a news
paper ever Issued In a city of less than 20,000. It Is a newspaper of
which any city of ten times the population could feel proud.
II. T. McIntosh offers a fine piece of fiction In "Zeroas Harlow's
Discipline." The edition Is profusely Illustrated throughout, and tho
scenes In and mound Albany arc well worth preserving.
II. M. McIntosh, that cblc and splendid gentleman aud brilliant
writer, Ik president of the Albany Herald, ar.d Its editor-in-chief. If.
T. McIntosh 13 secretary rand treasurer, and associate editor. To John
A. Davis, business manager, must go a great share of praise for tills
BUporb (spue.
His wisdom, his taste. Ills judgment mid Ills fine executive ability
arc shown in tho crowded advertising columns mid tho excellent mechan
ical appearance of the edition.
The Albany Herald bus set a new standard for Georgia ' Journalism,
and one that will be difficult to pass.

The Bavamiah Cotton Record of October 5 prints the following anent
the assembling of the cotton spinners:
"The cotton spinners ot.all countries are coming to hold
council with oao another. They will receive a cordial anil hearty
welcome In whichever part of thr Month they may visit. That
they will be made to have an enjoyable time goes without saying.
"Hut the spinners are not gathering themselves together -
merely to have 'a good time.' That is only one of the pleasing
amenRlrs of life—a mere ^jde Issue. They are assembling to dis
cuss aud consider matters concerning the betterment of their
materia! well-being.
"There Is of course r. considerable variety of matters to lie
considered, but after all tho spinner* are only after one thing.
At least this one tiling overshadows all the others. That one
thing Is the question as to how they arc going to lie able to
get ttelr supplies of cotton cheaper.”
Have they learned that way or have the producers learned how to
get better prices for their staple?
