We are glad to see that there now
exists a company which has ventured
to organize ihe power that has lain
idle many years m the reach of ou r
southern people, and to completely
-sft aright the vast wrongs that have
sheen pevpetarted upon, not only our
southern cotton raisers; hut upon the
-eclire laboring classes of the civilized
world. This company, it is calculated,

and other farmers and these that are
in sympathy with those who compose
tile very back bone of the commer

'they are willing to risk a few dollars

enormous amount of capital stored a

States and principally in such centers

by which the awful conditions of the

! ■ PRESENT GREAT THOU RLE,
-is on accofint of the almost undispute
able fact that those that have money
‘v.itlnvhiuh'to opnra'.o the large and

•sary business of ihe entire world are
now trying and 1 htivo been frying to

any-good.
•the only Remedy,
by Which these great evils can easily
Ibe set right is bv compelling these
people who keep their money in vaults
to pay it out for the necessaries of
life and make them nay higher wageu
for all h.aW.es of work and for goods.
TIS XOTIIIXG'^W.
For everybody lias for years known
that prosperity would immediately fol
low the placing of these large sums
ofidio money into circulation. Rut
the groat question for our consider
ation has been; How can we get Ml hi
money out and in to circulation? ??
RIGHT ANSWER.
Here is where we claim that by

by the farmers and their friends, this
great big draught or. the Ranks will
place that money into circulation at
tiie rapid rate of about fifty ($ fiff.C'J)
dollars for each halo o?tsbf toii, or a
bont $500.000.000,(ft) .'l'tiniially in.-itw.d
of only about 250 millions as at the
present i'a'w price of cotton.
You doubtless ask how dan this be
done? Wc answer by saying lhat it is
now being done Decausc the Ten
Cent Cotton Company now has some
of this year’s cotton in the warehouse
for which it paid Ten Cents per
pound by the biv'es Thru Cotton is
to remain in their hands until higher
prices prevail. We confidently be.
lieve that-cotton wili be selling allover
the'country'; and if the people art-in
terested in their oWn behalf enougn to
assist now, at a time 'when help is
'most needed we know full Well that it
will reach ten or more cants a pound
this year throughou. the stutli, and it
will remain at that price if toe Ten
cent cotton company causes general
rise in prices; because one of the mam
objects ot the ten cent cotton com
pany is that of setting a permanent
jet very liberal price upon our Nshe

duction; thrt of Cotton. And there

and absolutely unnecessary specula

‘"Theater sickness” is the mime of

tho eminent French physician, Dr. Mor

good deal of discussion in scientific and
lay circles in Paris. The doctor declares
that “theater sickness” and seasickness
resemble one another, take their victims
entirely unawares and prey especially
cn women. Tlio symptoms consist of
giddiness, loss of consciousness, a deep
'faint, and in perverse cases the malady
causes death. It seizes a victim after lie

commonly in tragedy than in comedy,
and, in brief, it ’‘constitutes a species of
asphyxia. When Tiii'n feel “theater
