$72 a Bale for Cotton.

We make what is known as the EAGLE
ECLIPSE COTTON GIN, with Il HULLER AT
TACHMENT. With this kind OF gin planter
can gin cotton of very long staple making Il
splendid sample, selling in the market at lie. a
pound or he can gin ON the same gin very dirty
cotton, turning out sample from, this Kind Of
cotton of the very highest grade and bringing as
high price as cotton well and cicanly picked.
We have hundreds of testimonials regarding
the wonderful work done on the Eagle Eclipse
Iluller and Cotton Gin During the season of
1889 a large number of planters sold their cot
ton ginned on this Eagle Eclipse lIuer Cotton
Gin, in various markets at 1G, 1Ga and ia cents
bales Of this cotton for II II Davis, Of Bruins
wick, Miss, at ~ cents pound. and they
write to Mr.. Davis that it was the most wonder
full work of any saw gin and that the staple,
which was so long, was not cut seems very re-
mari able. During the season of 1870 a large
number of planters obtained remarkably high
prices for cotton gnned ON the EAGLE
ECLIPSE HULLER GIN.
One planter states that Harris, Day & Co.
have sold TINS cotton as high as Il cents a
states that Harris, Days Co, sold 100 bales of
cotton ginned on the Eagle Eclipse fluller Gin to
Eclipse Huller gin, and sold by A j ForstalI at
1913 C. a pound, One planter who purchased
past season states that John IIardie 4 Co.
sold his crop of $40 bales at one cent a pound
over the market price. The Rev. 6 A Will
liams writes that the Eagle Eclipse Huller Gin
bought for him through John I Hardio & Co..
made a sample TO cotton which brought 10 per
cent, higher price than any of his neighborS OBJ
tanned for cotton ginned on other cotton gins.
We now have large stock of the Eagle and
Eagle Eclipse Huller Cotton Gins ready for i'm
mediate shipment, Send for illustrated cata-
l0gues and price lists.
The entire crop of long staple cotton of H. IL.
Davis, of Brunswick, Miss, was ginned Il
new Eagle Eclipse IIuller Gin, with the Patent
Combined Breaker and Feeder, and sold at liz
C. pound.
Mr.. Davis writes to the New Orleans Machine
Co., Limited as follows:
THE cotton with ordinary handling, was sold
all of it, first and last packing complete by lar
ris, bay & Co., at 171a cents a pound. There
were siXty-four bales of my own cotton and
eight bales of a neighbOT'S all ginned on your
EAGLE ECLIPSE HULLER GIN. | cannot do
better than quote from Harris. Day & Co.'S let
ter regarding the ginning; they say AS far as
the ginning Is concerned, we must compliment
you. 1t is the MOST WONDERFUL WORK OF
ANY SAW GIN. and that the staple, which is
very long, is not cut, seems very remarkable
The cotton was not prepared, as Is often the
case, at fair, but simply handled like the rest
OF the crop, and was sold on its merits
The above endorsement of the EAGLE
ECLIPSE HULLER GIN, with the combined
BREAKER and FEEDER, proves the SEPE-
RIORITY of the gin over any other kid.
Samples of the 17la cent cotton are now on
exhibition at our Office.

LOOK OUT FOR 1T.

Some years ago a law was enact
ed in this State, compelling the
Assessors of the various counties
to publish in alphabetical order. a
roll of the taxpayers and the
amount of property upon which
they paid.
People who studied this tax roll
began to realize how small an
amount of taxes some of the
wealthiest citizens of this State
paid. The annual publication of
this tax roll caused good many
leading citizens TO sweat blood,
and men who were supposed to be
very wealthy found their credit in
San Francisco not as good as
formerly, as the heavy business
houses there always procure copies
Of this document,
The tax-dodgers never liked
this tax roll law, as it frequently
held them up officially to the
public as people who must have
committed perjury to evade the
obligations they owed the Assessor.
Some got 50 frightened that they
actually swore to at least half their
property rather than give their
neighbors cause for unpleasant
comment A bill is now before the
Senate which provides for a State
Board OF Equalization.
The bill repeats the law, requir-
ing the Assessor to publish the
tax roll, and this indicates to any
one who reads it carefully, that
there is a large sized colored man
on the fence.
We are informed that it is bill
to increase the taxes of the rich
and lower the taxes Of the poor,
but anyone who believes this sort
of bosh ought to be in the Reno
asylum.
Had that been the object Of the
bill it would lot have attempted
to wipe out the old tax aw. which
makes public the amount of taxes
each man or corporation pays.
The trainers of the bill evident
ly do not want the obnoxious pub
licity of the printed tax roll.
If they were doing the fair
thing they would not object to it.
In this bill the fine italian hand
Of Controller Hallock is plainly
visible.
Ever since the tax roll bill
passed there have been systematic
efforts to obliterate it from the
Statute books, and this Board OF
Equalization Bill is an old chop at
it under a new disguise.

OMAHA, Neb., July 27.-Ncbraska
railroad managers are actively engaged
i'm an effort to evade the law of the re-
cent alliance Legislature which goes in
to effect August 1, making eight hours
u days work. All the companies
have prepared instructions to their
employees, declaring that all
will be employed and paid by
the hour after that date. Organized
labor is opposed to this scheme, as the
eight hour measure was fostered by
them at the time of its consideration by
the alliance. Many of the companies
expect trouble to result when their
men discover what is being lone.
The new law ~infiicts penalties for at
tempting to avoid its provisions, and it
was only after consultation and legal
advice that the railroad companies con-
cluded to fight the law. On the Union
Pacific and Burlington trouble is most
likely to arise.
1t is generally believed that Gould's
presence in the west now means that
he desires to be on the ground to super
intend the matter. AS crops are low
being handled a strike would force the
road to terms and result in great dam
age. The railroad employees under
stand the situation.

MATRIMONIAL SUBJECTS.

A GIRL of eighteen has more sense in
the matrimonial way than a man of
thirty.
A NEW YORK girl, suffering from the
grip, meditated suicide. Then, chang
ing her mind, she sought relief in anoth-
er way-she got married.
PORT HURON is said to have a girlcott
i. e., the manageable young women
nave combined against the boys. The
girlcott will end by the girls getting
married.
A Topeka (Kan.) girl refuses to mar
ry a man who had paid for a license, be-
cause her father was too old to support
n son-in-law, and the girl herself had
too much sense to obligate herself to
support Il husband.
THE bridal veil originated in the GUS
tom of performing the nuptial ceremony
under a square piece of cloth, held over
the bride and groom to conceal the
bushes of the latter. At the marriage
of a widow it was dispensed with.
