our advice to the Maine office-hunte

Bdth NIhtflcAn NentlntL
Ellsworth wants to increase the business
Of its city, and in a practical, business-like
method offers to exempt from taxation for
ten years shoe factory and plant, and its
business for the term of ten years, and to
make up deficiency of 5000 in sub>crip-
tions to induce a concern to locate IN that
city. That is the method of a live town.
The cities which love to enjoy a protract-
ed Rip Van Wrinkle slumber take an entire
ly different course, invest their money in
foreign enterprises 90 to the great cities
to trade, and habitually boycott local en-
terprses. But every one to his fancy.

Cotton Progress and Prospects.

The New York Chronicle Of SatnD
day has the following:
Continuing the plan heretofore pur-
sued by US Of keeping our readers in-
formed as to the development and
condition Of the cotton plant during
the more critical period OF Its growth,
We have this week received from our
various correspondents at the South
special returus covering the month Of
July. All of our Inquiries have been
very fully answered, end a careful
analysis of them warrants US In draw
ing the conclusions which follow.
OF primary Importance has been the
weather, aud on this point our reports
are very complete. 1t will be remem-
bered that the rainfall In June was
above the normal for that month 10
almost all sections of the South, but
the effect on the plant was beneficial
rather than otherwise. During July
the precipitation has been excessive
over the greater portion of the Atlau-
tic States, and In a lesser degree In the
northern portion of the Gulf States aud
in Tennessee. North Texas also cxpe-
rienced a heavy rainfall In the first
week of the month, but eiDce then the
weather has been generally dry and
forcing. Only In districts OF Virginia,
the Caroiinas and Tennessee Is injury
to any extent claimed on account of
too much rain. The temperature has
in the main been satisfactory.
The plant has mads good progress in
development almost everywhere. In
the Atlantic States the early plantlngs
are fully up to last year, but later SOW
ings are from week to ten days be-
hind. In Arkansas cotton Is not so
we'll advanced as year ego, owing to
80 much more rain in tho current sea-
son. Elsewhere, however, 1t is we'll
matured, and on the gulf and In Texas
is stated to be in advance Of last year
in growth. There has been generally
steady and In some cases rapid i'm
provement In condition during the
month, and on the fret OF August the
plant presented strong and healthy
appearance in by far the greater part
of the South.
Cultivation has been thorough
throughout the season whenever the
weather would permit Of II, SO that thu
fields are clean, except where rains to-
wards the close Of the month prevented
field work. We have received com
plants OF grass in Virginia, the Csro
liuas and Tennessee, but none wortl
reporting elsewhere. A few bales o
new cotton reached market in July
the first Georgia bale making Its ap
pearance at Albany on the 5th, and OF
, the 22d the first Texas bale arrived q
Houston.
Our conclusion is that there has bee
an improvement in cotton during Jul
in all States except Tennessee, and tbs
the greatest advance has been in Texs
! aud Arkansas. The conditions sine
, the first of August have been favorabl
, as rule, except too much rain In th
I Carolinas; at few points In Texs
{ rain is said to be needed. On til
3 whole, therefore, the outlook is muc
J, more promising than at this time
r 1888, aud with favorable condition
o from now on there Is every reason Il
0 anticipating very good crop.
