Respectfully i Alfred Williams Company RALEIGH N. i at High Point. By the Manufacturers' Club. Governor and Entire Personal Staff, in Full Uniform, Will Attend. Principal Address by Governor.

Governor Glenn yesterday accepted an Invitation, on behalf himself and his personal staff, to attend the annual banquet of the Manufacturers' Club at High Point on February 14. A special delegation from the club, consisting of Col. Wescott Roberson, Mr. J. W.

Harris and Mr. C. F. Tom-linson arrived In the city yesterday morning and extended the formal In vitation to the Governor. During the meeting the general program of the banquet was discussed in detail and from the points developed will be I made up.

announcement of which will be made as soon as formulated. The Governor and his entire staff will attend in full uniform. This banquet will bo an event of great interest and value to the State as the speeches which will be delivered on that occasion will exploit the activity, growth and achievements of manufacturing in North Carolina, which have reached such a stage as to make every true citizen of the State to fell justly proud. The principal address will be delivered by His Excellency. Governor Robert B.

Glenn, and the subject will be "North Carolina and Its Industrial Awakening." This speech will be one of the most notable of the many splendid ones the Governor has made during hlir occupancy of the gubernatorial chair and will emphasize the fiict of his being the Industrial Governor of North Carolina. The State was never more active in every line of industrial endeavor and no Commonwealth in the Union offers a more Inviting field for investment of capita In industrial enterprises. It is gratifying to the progressive spirits of the State, that North Carolina has a Governor who is fostering and encouraging every branch of Indus-trial enterprise. At the banquet last year the most cot.pplcious figures were from out of the State, the most notable being Secretary Metcalf, of President Roosevelt's Cabinet. This -year the club has decided to reverse the order of things and let the home folks, headed by the Governor do the honors.

Mr. Tomlinson, in speaking of the growth of High Point as a manufacturing center, stated that there are now more than sixty manufacturing establishments, the majority of thftm being furniture factories, and that at least three million dollars capital is; retired for the business. The he said, has all been made right at home. The largest factories there were started on a small scale and the capacity increased as the business required. He c6nsiders High Point really at scarcely more than the threshold of her real career as a manufacturing center.

C. cirjj" A KU i i 0)q DOMINANT FACTOR Stand Firm for Fifteen Cents. BUT DON'T GO HIGHER Advice of President Harvie Jordan. Governor Glenn to Address Wake County Division Next Saturday. To Adopt Resolution for Acre age Reduction.

A convention of the cotton growers and business men of Wake county has been called by the president of the Wake county division of the Southern Cotton Association. Mr. A CJfeen. the meeting to be held in Metropolitan Hall next Saturday. February 3d, at eleven o'clock.

There will be addrevses by Governor li. U. Glenn. President C. Moore, of the North Carolina Division, and Mr.

H. liockery, chairman of the Stale Kxecutive Committee. The program will Include other prominent planters and citizens. President Moore will arrive In Raleigh Friday, and the Kxecutive offices of the State Division will the.i be established in the Tucker building, third floor. President Moore will spend several days of every week In Haleigh.

during the next two or three months. A meeting will be held In every cotton growing county In the State on Saturday, and President Moore has urged that a special resolution, binding the to a 25 per cent, reduction of cotton acreage on tho 1904 crop basis be adopted. The farmers are also encouraged to hold the smail unspld balance of the present cotton crop for fifteen cents per pound. The mammoth cotton convention this month in New Orleans unanimously endorsed the proposition to hold for fifteen cents, and the flht is now on between the spot holders of cotton and the bear speculators and spinners of the world. In a letter received yesterday resident Harvie Jordan says: "Nobady has as yet denied the right of the farmers to receive fifteen cents for the balance of this crop hi order to average the price of the whole crop at twelve cents.

Nobody has denied that the spinners can easily pay twelve cents for the whole crop and make money. Those who fighting the proposition either rear the independence of the farmers or a shortening of the big profits they have heretofore made. "For the third time in the last two months Theodore Price, the great bear leader, has been forced to cover to save himself from bankruptcy. He says the price of cotton Is now based on Southern sentiment and I thank God that the price of our great staple It as last being based on Its intrinsic value. backed by-Southern manhood.

We have practically reached the end of the crop, and there will not be enough cotton to run the mills on full time until next September. The price of cotton goods is rapidly advancing. Why not the price of raw cotton? Tie up and hold tight the spots. You control the situation and shourd force the world to respect your demands, which are fair and reasonable. "The price of cotton has advanced $2.50 per since the New Orleans meeting and the demand for spot getting stronger dally.

"The die is cast and the Association loyally backed by the spot holders of the unsold balance of this crop must win the present fight. "The fight is now on to a finish between the spot holders and frienls of higher prices, backed by Southern bankers, and the Bear sneoulatoi sotnners and enemies to fair and equit able prices. The lines are plainly drawn, and friend or foe will be quickly recognized by the voice, pen or nosltion taken. "We are dealing with a product worth many hundreds of millions of Piles Cured.

The Woman's Club, attended by an unusually large representation of merrtbers, had under consideration the proposition or. the Sir Walter Raleigh Monument committee, and received a delegation from that committee. The resxrttof the meeting was a favorable response from the Woman's Club whiih means that the ladies of Haleigh will organize the patriotic women's societies of the State in an effort to erec a fitting memorial to transcendent Raleigh, the father of the American I colonies, and the genius that made possible the ctvilization of the Western world. Addresses were delivered before the clubj by Hon. R.

H. Battle, acting chaifman of the Monument fstate Superintendent J. Y. Joyner, Secretary of State J. Bryan Grimes, jj.

Miss Heck made tr delightful and eulogized tW vWmanhotfd" bf the "State as monument builders, and she said the women of North. Carolina are desirous notjoniy-of resurrecting the forgotten history of the State. but of erecting suitable memorials to the memory of its treat sona and the achievements of the fathers of-its history and civilisa-tioni of whom Sir Walter Raleigh was the I foremost.

Mr. Battle related the history of the Sir (Walter Raleigh Monument movement, from the creation of jitie committee by the State Historical Society sevlral years ago, until thef present; and stated that nearly $1,000 was in the! Monument Fund. He, declared that the Woman's Club was a great poer in Raleigh, and. similar clubs were as strong and Influential in other pars of the State. He said that the movement must enlist the sympathy and co-operation of the women of the State, and that no other factor-would be feo potential.

The speaker, declared that Sir Walter Raleigh was the most versatile man of his age: poet, orator, statesman, philosopher, soldier, sailor, explorer, colonist founder, and mathematician. He said Raleigh died a martyr's death In the cause of patriotism. He said a monument crowning? Raleigh's memory, built after beauty and magnificence, should be erefcted to him for whoni the capital city of North Carolina was named, and who did so much for the world. He suggested that-It should cost not less than $5M00, and should be erected in the) north entrance to the capitol square. Bishop Cheshire said North Carolina was fortunate in having its capital! city 'to bear a name of some significance.

"It is Incumbent upon every citizen of North Carolina," he said, "who has I an equal Interest In this movement. to support it. The name of Raleigh belongs not only to this State, but to the United States. Ral-eigfh is the father of our country, as he! was the father of English colonization. He displayed the genius of th Roman government in establishing eolonies in all parts of tie world.

Following the impulse of Raleigh's genius, English colonization In America was commenced, He Is the father of the English-speaking commonwealth In the World. The successful Jamestown setlement was thf carrying out of the effort to ef fect a settlement on Koanoice lsiana. We owe. it out of respect to this great man to establish a fitting monumenc to -his memory. polonel Grimes delivered an eloquent address, his estimate of Raleigh being that, "Raleigh was the true farther of American history.

The time is ripe to raise a monument to his memory.

The event will attract the attention of America andHhe world. It will pay materially in dollars and cent3. The British ana American governments would participate." Colonel Grimes believed that the monument should be unveiled daring the Jamestown Exposition, in 1807. which would attract liundreds of thousands of people to North Carolina, this State being the real birthplace of the American civilization. Mr.

Bruner said in part: "We must remembpr that he is nr international figure, whose achievements are resplendent on two continents. Thls; lifts him out of the local class, and when we come to a memorial for such a figure, we must abandon the local standards which control in such matters. We must make it a world event. The fact, when proclaimed, that the people of this great State intend to honor and i petuate the name and fame of Sir Walter Raleigh, becomes news for the world." Superintendent Joyner said there were 700.000 school children in North Carolina, and he would be of the privilege of again giving them the op-jportunity of contributing to the erec-Ition of the Raleigh monument, thus oo-oneratinsr in the ereat movement He said he considered Sir Walter Raleigh as "the courtliest spirit of his age, and the knightliest man. who s-tood for virtues more than those of any other man I would like to see the school children of this State emulate." Mr.

C. J. Parker made a splendid speech upon the 1 appropriateness to build this monument, which, at thf same time, is building a monument (more lasting on the minds of the chil dren. Mr. W.

J. Peele, who has done more for the cause, probably. than any other man in the State, made the last speech. He said if the monument were not to be a great thing, then it: erection should be put off for a future generation. He said that its unveiling would be tfte means of having In 1907 or '08 the largest State reunion ever held in the United States and there would be gathered her' North Carolinians from all quarters of the globe.

Sell your cotton at that price, and do not undertake to force the mirket still higher. Our position is bused upon tqulty and fairness, and no effort should be made to go beyond that. lei us be fair with the spinners: and in making sales let It be distinctly understood that the buyer will ship the cotton direct to the manufacturers, and that the cotton is not being" bought for the purpose of tenders on speculative contracts in the cotton exchanges of the country. Notify your cotton factors that this rule must be strictly adhered to. Let the speculators who have been "bearing" the market and who are shrort on their contracts, get out of their perilous positions the best way they can.

We must confine our dealings with the legitimate cause of consumption, and protect the spinners and our own interests from abnormally high or low prices brought through speculative Influences. It Is now on established fact, that the present crop will not exceed 10,000.000 bales, of uOO pounds weight. There will not be enough cotton to meet the enormous demands for consumption "These are facts which have tot been. and cannot be, denied exc-jpt by misrepresentation and juggling of figures for" speculative purposes. Those farmers who -recklessly rushed their cotton on the market and sacrificed it at 9 1-2 to 10 cents, ougot not to complain if their neighbors are still holding a portion of theirs for higher prices.

If the spinners bought the bulk of this crop at from 9 1-2 to 10 1-2 cents per pound when they couTd easily have paid 12 they should not now complain If the small balance of the unsold portion Is held at fifteen cents. In order to average the price as near 12 cents as possible. The price of cotton has advanced $2.50 a bale since the New Orleans and Is daily advancing, on Its merits, and in the face of the strongest combination to hold down prices, that ever existed. Wall Street and Liverpool have lost their power of fixing the price of the great American staple. The Southern spot holder Is now the dominant factor in the cotton trade of the world.

His cause Is a righteous one. and will receive the endorsement and support of every loyal Southerner, who believes In fair play in the great fifrht which Is now waging. The South can and will win." EX A I NE0F I ERS Important Inspection of the State Guard in March. Inspector-General T. II.
