THE COTTON 8ITUATION.
The Telegraph never enters the field
of prophecy, nor Into guessing ''on-
testa, and therefore It doea not know
how much cotton has been made thin
season. It hope* there hna been enough
to make the Southern farmera rich,
end to clothe the world comfortably.
But trlcka for advantage In epeculn-
tlon, and achemea to deprive the pro
ducer! of a legitimate profit on their
stuff are abominations to be con
demned.
In a published advertisement In this
paper on Tuesday morning Theodore
H. Price, a cotton man of New York,
said: “I am aupplled with photographs
of a number of unpicked fields In the
South which I shall shortly publish
and which give Indisputable evidence
of the fact that a large Amount of cot
ton la ntlU unpicked.”
A news story printed In these col
umns yesterday represented Price m
offering photographers In Texas and
Georgia $25 for plctUrpa of cotton fields
Showing unpicked cotton, rich corner
spots hero and there, and "brag"
patches which hnd been highly fertil
ised being selected to make the ex
hlblt.
As we have said, The Telegraph does
not know whether or not lt.000.000
bales have been made as claimed by
Price. It doea not know that more thun
11.000,000 bales have been made. But
It does know that thorn la no cotton In
the fields In Georgia. Price might get
a photograph here and a photograph
there from a rich corner, or fancy
patch, but they would not mean any
thing. They would not represent any
thing. Fifty of them would not mean
fifty unpicked balea within the view or
proximity of the camera. And yet, to
the uninformed, to those who nnturally
wish to bear the innrket, we can see
how Price’s array "f pictures would
appeal and mlhlend. Without ropro
seating anything raul or tangible we
can see how they may do great harm
to the cotton market from the pro
ducera’ standpoint.
Thla la a new device by the Wall
street bears, and the sooner It Is seen,
met and exposed the better for the
producer and for the real consumer
of the cotton staple. Thera la little
wonder that there was some excite
ment and much Indignation among the
cotton planters about Macon yester
day, and we hnve no doubt all over the
cotton atataa where thla scheme waa
mads known,
There la one other thing that The
Telegraph haa never known certainly:
Whether or not the price of cotton ta
going to advance or decline. In this
ret pert thla paper haa been exceptional.
Therefore It haa never advised the
farmers to hold or to aetl. It do
neither now. Hut it wilt any that It has
never eeen a time when the farmers
were In better position to hold than
now. They have better bank accounts
than ever before, and those that have
no bank accounts can get better rates
of Interest than aver before on ad
vances on their epot cotton. Those
that desire to hold can get money
they need IL We believe they are go
ing to hold. *s a rule. The sales have
fallen oft greatly within the lust few
days. Tha farmers are nearer the
masters of the situation than wa hnv
evsr known them. The crop has been
marketed too fast It will take tw
months for the demand to catch uy
If the remaining crop la held out for
that length of time prices will most
likely be better than now.
Meanwhile It is a good time te put
tn a good crop of wheat.

Granting the truth of this account.
It must he said that Yale's action Is
both dishonorable and morally wrong.
If the Yale men go out to meet the
Harvard men knowing what to expect
they should play fair or not nt all.
They should dither Inalst on a white
man's game and refuse to play other

the llsrvard man who may hnppen to

SANDERBV1LLE. Oa.. Dec. 8.—To
the Formers and all Those Interested
In the Advancement of the Price of
Cotton: The majority of cotton bolng

the farmers. The result of last sea
son's short crop led our farmera to be
lieve that a crop of 12,000,000 balsa of
cotton would And a ready sale at n
good price. Indeed our dally journals,
the manufacturers nil over the coun
try, and cotton men who make a study
of the cotton statistics, led tho farm
ers to believe that tho world waa act
ually In need of a 12.000,000 bale crop
The result Is the farmers planted for
a 12,000,000 bale crop. They worked for
It. They fertilized for It. The seasons
were favorable and they made It, If tho
government report Is correct. What Is
the result The very moment the man
ufacturers and cotton speculators
found out the farmers had produced
what they said they should produce In
order to supply the demands, they

the opportunity to force the manufac

stated In the outset, the majority of
the cotton In the country Is In the
hand of the farmers. The majority of
these farmers nro out of debt, or can
be by drawing on their cotton a little.
Now the remedy: First, organize. Let
each county have Its organization for
mutual protection. Such nn organlza
tlon la needed, not only for this pur
pose but for many purposes. Put your
cotton under good shelters or In ware
houses nnd mark on "Ten Cents Net”
nnd "set right steady tn the boat.
Cut down the cotton acreage next year
one-fourth. That will mean at least
one-fourth less cotjon than this year
or 9,000,000 bales, granting 12,000.000
hates were made thin year. It Is’well
known that what this will do for the
prlco ot cotton "would be a plenty.’!
Ijiat season's prices la an example.
Four or five years ago when cotton
was 5 cent* per pound and our farmers
all In debt any suggestion of this kind
would have been the grossest folly, hut
now the condition of the majority of
the farmers Is such that the plan
entirety feasible and sensible. We
know n 10,000,000 hale crop of cotton
brought from 12 cents to 17 cents per
pound last year, we know further that
a 12,000,000 bate crop. In the face of
the shortage of last season, ought
bring at least ten cents, and If the
manufacturers are not willing to give
ua the worth of our product, we know
from last aeason'a experience how the
price can be forced to Its value. Last
season when prices were soaring so
high and some people were predicting
cants and 25 cents per pound for
cotton, some of our New England man
ufacturers went so far aa to say that
those responsible for any such prices
were guilty of a crime against human
ity more worthy of lynching than the
negro brute who bums and murders
whole families nnd outrages our wo
men. We will not say that the manu
facturers who would force tha price of
cotton below the coot of production. Is
guilty of any crltna. but we wilt say.
that one ts guilty aa the other, and the
farmer knows the key to tho situation
now. and Is In position to use tL And
having a foretaste, the past few days
of what the manufacturers would do
for them under circumstances they
think advantageous, we think he ts
perfectly Justifiable In taking any steps
that would force the price of cotton to
the cost of production with a reason
able proflt.and there ta no question but
the pUns above outlined will bring ,
about theae results. Organise formers, j
organise, protect yourselves from those I
who would plunder and force you to •
take leas than the coat of your product.
