NINE MILLION MILES OF WAR.
In Seven Parts of Africa European
Nations Are Fighting ut the
Present Time,

In seven distinct sections Of the
African continent, in all measuring
over 100000 square miles, war is at
present being waged against the say
age tribes or settlers by the civilized
nations Of Europe. England Is con-
cerned in three Of the campaigns,
France in three and Germany i'll one,
while III one cornec of northwestern
Africa the Moors are battling against
the border tribes rHeh along the bound-
airy Of Algiers.
The bitterest struggle beirg wa5ed
is that between England ani the Bocrs.
England's other troubles are in the
Nile valley and the Uganda region. In
the former Gen. Kitchener still has to
deal with the khaliia's forces, WHO
have withdrawn to the Businesses of the
Soudan, and Maj. Macdonald is waging
the third British campaign il the Ugan-
da, where the victory is practically won.
The campaigns France has engaged
upon are modest ones. The first is the
Foreau-Lamy expedition, which was
sent from Algiers more than a year ago
to march to the southern border of
the Soudan, and there fight the way
against the Tauregs. The second is a
branch of the ForeauLamy expedition
in charge of Lieut.. Pallier, and was di-
rected against the tribesmen near Lake
Tchad.-Stray Stories.

Political independence.

Mr.. Capen. a prominent republican
speaker, in discussing the matter Of
politics recently. among other things,
said:
"The tendency Of the average Ameri-
can citizen 10 shirk obvious municipal
duties received considerable attention.
If each citizen had the welfare Of his
city n. l,ea,t he would he at tile polls OH
election day bright and early and cast
his ballot. Political parties, lie said, in
municipal affairs were unnecessary and
only menace to good government.
The Christian voter should not vote
along parts lines. but select his candi-
date for each office with care, Judging
him as to ability and worth. as best he
might under the circumstances. Too
often, lie said, TIE character Of the
candidate for public office was not
observed or examined close enough be-
fore the ballot was cast. Political par
ties are a necessity in national and state
affairs" said Mr.. Capen. but they be-
come ridiculous when applied to mnni-
cipal matters. Every man should have
ut least an INTELLIGENT opinion on all
municipal matters"
Let every voter in Williston ponder
over these remarks. aud cast his vote
accordingly at the forthcoming town
election. And also, lot the same spirit
prevail when We enter our next school
election.

COTTON FIGURES OF NEW
NEiLL-WHAT THEY MEAN
By Jos. 5. Lively.

The English spinners are apparently
sore over Neill's inability to make any
thing near Il correct guess on the figures
of our cotton crop. and have put a new
man in the fields of cotton. a J. Burson.
of Liverpool. who claims TO know a field
Of cotton when he sees IT. for ne actually
pointed one out TO a party OF friends a
short while ago in North Carolina. the
friends being agreeably surprised at his
ability 10 tell a cotton patch from a forest
of oaks with his slight acquaintance with
the plant.
lie Travelled through the cotton belt
recently TO satisfy himself and friends
to the fine conditions of cotton. and in
each state lie makes the condition better
than the agricultural department at
Washington. and above the conditions
by the state departments.
He apparently has something up his
sleeve" that he does not give the public.
for he states he could place his figures
higher. but for the fact that all author
tiles We're making lower estimates.
After thorough investigation he says:
II consider this an average crop. The
main points that this is not a small one,
as a great many contend. are these:
T. The size OF the hollis. as compared with
last years. il Is mU n larger
2. The yield Of lint per acre is far IN ex-
cess OF last year. as reported from the gin
houses
3. The staple e everywhere far superior to
Z. The weight Of the bales is also much
heavier than last year.
5 In spite Of reports that some OF the plant
ers contend that picking viii be over in many

although farmers We're everywhere paying an
advance in wages
From the above extraordinarily favOra-
BILE col.litions he says the crop of 10000
wal aggregate 10. 1000. with a late frost
more, and if his main points are correct.
which every one in the cotton belt know
cannot be so. he is very conservative in
his estimate.
If cotton is allowed to go on growing
all winter under the conditions as he sees
them in most cases from train. IL is
more than likely We will have A pretty
fair average crop OF cotton this season.
and taking into consideration the very
light stocks on his side of the water our
farmers should get 4 better price than
that at which he ;-dvises them to sell.
While IL is a fact that the present move
ment of cotton would Indicate larger
yield than was a first supposed. 1t does
not necessarily follow that such is the
case This season opened with prices
higher than at the first of any previous
season i'm many years. of which the farm
er has taken advantage TO market for
his more urgent needs. and now, when
the staple is showing weakness. he is
