DEMOCRACY YS. COMBINATION.
The Democratic party is cer-
tainly not opposed to all combin
ations of capital. A partnership
is a combination of capital among
two or more. The corporations
which have tended so to develop
the cotton manufacturing indus
try ol the southern states are
combinations of capital. They)
are largely managed by local peo-
ple, who have combined their
capital to establish local indus-
tries in their local communities,
give employment to local labor,
and contribute to the wealth and
prosperity and power of the state. ]
Are we to draw the line against
the local combination of capital
in the local bank, in the local
mine, in the local iron furnace,
in the local factory and in the
development of the local water?
If not, where? Draw it
the genius of the English com
man law has drawii it. Against

Farmers are taking advantage
of the prices paid fur cotton by
Lexington buyers. They come
here sell their cotton at the very
highest market price and then
buy their goods at the very cheap-
est figures. Lexington was hurt
some last year by new towns but
what she lost last year she is
more than making back this fall.
Our merchants are all satisfied
with the summer trade and are
expecting a great fall trade.
How are we to know whether
or not Hird McGuire is in earnest

The Kepublican Statehood
promise is a good deal like a bot-
tle of pop, there is a whole lot of
ozone and gas about it.
Several Kepublican papers are
making estimates of Mctiuire's
majority and listing the counties
that may be counted for him, but
we did not see Cleveland countv
.on that list.

No man ever attained success
who did not make some enemies.
There are those who are always
jealous of some fellow's good
work, and are ready to place a

Hird McGuire worked hard and
earnestly last winter; but it was
against single statehood. He
made for himself a great record;
he had only one charge preferred
