It now appears quite certain that IL
the Greeks are unsuccessful in the war
with Turkey, that King George will
have to abdicate. and in such an event
the question comes up what will the
great powers do?. They no doubt will
assume the privilege of nominating a
new ruler, but just how they will be able
TO reach selection In view or the d.
versity OF interest prevailing among
themselves. is not entirely clear. The
man that Will suit Russia will not be to
England's, liking, nor no more will he
be acceptable TO Germany, while a
ruler OF Englands selection will be cs-
pecially distasteful to the latter power.
Should Germany nominate man, the
French eagles would scream thcmsel-
yes hoawe in opposition, and England
would be equally as loud In her protests.
while IL France was to undertake TO
make nomination "the mad Empe-
ror" would see in 1t step toward AL

THE COTTNN SITUATION.

McssM. Latham, Alexander & Co, 0
New York. than whom there is no bette
authority on the subject Of cotton in tn
country. has recently issued Il statemen
on the cotton situation. III which the.
say:
The total visable supply Of cotton
in the world Is 304 bales less than
in 1886, when the crop was unusually
small and 1.1S7,97A bales less than III
1895. showing the present statictical
position to be stronger than for many
years At this date. Then. too. it Is
probable the largest consumption in
Europe Will continue and improving
business in America may be cx-
pectcd.
1t Is therefore evident that 4 large
American crop this year IS essential
to meet the wants or the world com
fortably. while the present indica-
lions for the new crop are not prom
islng, even in many OF the most
favored sections or the South.
Early planting and favorable
weather conditions constitute he
chief elements of successful cotton
growing-w!thout them large crop
is imposs.blc; thus far, This season,
these factors have been lacking.
Our adviccs generally report the
crop three to five weeks later than
last year. land poorly prepared and
nights too cool for growth IN some
sections; besides, il is well known
that vast area Of the most pro-
ductive cotton lands in the States
OF Tennessee, Arkansas. mississippi
and Lou.ilna. that are usually plant
cd In cotton by this time Of the year,
are now under water. and It Is ques-
tionnble whether any crop at all can
De raised on this account.
Even though the water should rap
Idly rcccdc, which Is not at all prob
able. Il great dilHinution in acreage
would result In the overlooked dis
tricts.
If the crop planted laic, il mus.
encounter the risk of a.y weather
IN The late summer months. which
would .etard growth, and flos, IN
! the fall. which would prevent matu-
!iiy.
The best time to plan, cotton in
the mississippi valley is the latter
part of APRIL. While 1t is possible
to make q crop if planting is deferr-
ed until late In May, but few plant
ers would care TO try the experiment,
unless forced to DO So
The Richmond Dispatch In referring t
this statement very properly says:
While we give the above infor-
nation TO our readers, we want to
emphasize our former statement
that 1t Is very poor policy to raise
cotton and be compelled to buy
bread. Under. such conditions the
price OF cotton is generally low and
the cost OF grain IS high The safest
thing iE 10 plant plcntifully Of food
crops and make cotton a secondary
considcya ton
or course cotton Will always be IN
staple crop of the South, but at the sam
time the farmers VIII consult their II,
icreSts by derersifying their crops.
3 unsafe 20 plant any one crop alone.

THE Herald doubtless is or the opinion
that the, removal Of the reiuatns of ''tlle
Father Of His Country 10 New York
would be q great thing for New York
and that is about rs farjas It has got
ten. However, the Herald will find be-
fore il goes much further that the peO-
pie Of Virginia not only objects, but
resents the proposition. and 1t may as
we'll stop where it Is.
Virginia will never consent to the re-
moval OF Washngton's remains from
their present resting place to New
York. and the Herald should end its
folly by keeping quiet on the question.
