September, two of whom will I'M
doubtedly be Democrats. If three
Democrats are elected lii California,
there will be a majority OF the dele

Democratic sides and that will give
the Democracy the President if the

An exchange says: The farmers
are disappointed in the price of cot
ton this season. The low price Of
fered for this staple hardly pays
for its cultivation, yet when we COM
pare the prices of other products
and ef other articles with the ante
5eLlUM prices we find that cotton is
no exception to the rule. Wheat,
corn, cotton, and nearly all farm
products are coming down together.
Yet farmers feel that the low price
of cotton rs greater hardship, for
the eason that, ever since the close
of the war, they bave relied on this
crop principally foF paying their
debts. 1t always has market. and
brings cash down prices. Many of
the debts under which they a,e now
laboring were contracted when
everything was at a high price, and
when they have to sell cotton at a
very low figure to pay debts in
Cured in buying highrpriced pro-
visions and goods, they feel more
sensibly the decline.
