Paris of America has not necessarily been
"dry."

number of orders for the Daily HERALD
from merchants around Dallas, many of
them coming from east Texas, because of
the correctness and impartiality of our
market reports and particularly for the
cotton quotations. We are gratiiied that
our efforts to quote the market correctly
are being appreciated Dallas now being
the center Of trade for such large district
ofcountry, merchants and cotton buyers
around us everywhere look to the HERALD
for reliable reports and are controlled i'll
their purchases by them. Our earnest en-
deayor will be to give facts and figures that
will not mislead any one.
The receipts Of cotton to-day were
so small that We did not attempt

market, however, advanced an eighth of a
cent and was very firm.
