1t looks now as if there was going to
be an enormous crop of cotton in Texas
this year. The condition of the crop at
present is as good as could be desired.
The prediction is freely made that the
yield viii exceed that of the large crop Of
1884
There is danger of course that there
will be unfavorable weather, or that the
cotton will be attacked in localities by
insects, but such danger exists every
season. What is said about the crop now
is based upon existing conditions
In other cotton states there is a prom
Use of a good yield. Consequently it Is
not unreasonable to expect that the cot
ton crop this year will be as large. if
not larger, than the crop of any pre-
vious year.
In view of the prospect of a big crop
there is considerable speculation as to
what the price of cotton will be the next
cotton season. 1t appears to be conceded
that if the crop is large one the price
will be low. 1t is estimated that the crop
of 1856 brought as much money as the
much larger crop of 1S94-5, owing to the
higher price received for it, There are
some advantages in very large crop, al
though the price of cotton may be low.
1t cost much more to harvest and mar
ket large crop than a small one. The
planters may not be benefited by the
larger crop, but the cotton piekers and
the transportation lines have no reason
to complain of it. Still. all things con-
sidered, the cotton growing section ia
likely to be more prosperous when the
cotton crop is a medium one and the
! price fair than when the crop is unusu-
ally large and the price is low.

The south has millions of rich but un-
titled acres. Its mineral wealth is prac-
tieally inexhaustible. Its water power,
Offering energy sufficient to turn the
wheels of nations factories, are com
paratively bare of machinery. The south
has not the money to develop these mag
nihcent sources of wealth. It must invite
capital from the north and elsewhere, and
desirable immigration from divers sour
ces. The way to get capital to come south.
according to some Of our public men ana
leading newspapers, is to reduce the vol
ume Of money in the country by one-half.
by driving all Of the gold to Europe. to cut
IN half the value Of the money that viii
remain ana to put the laboring classes Of
the south on half pay.

ed by the attempts of the sanitary au-
thorities 10 isolate cholera patients. The
orientals pray to Allah to be saved from

breaking out of cholera riot shows that
the dread disease is making progress, as
might be expected it would among peo-

is that from Cairo the cholera will make
