A Georgia planter, Hon. James NJ.

his cotton crop in bulk to Inman & Co.
Of Augusta for 100000. The crop con-
sisted of 1000 bales, and the price paid
is about ten cents pound; double the
price the crop would have brought three
years ago. At this rate cotton growing

THE MAINE PRESS ASSOCIATION
Holds Its 38th Annual Session iu August
Tuu Q0<1D and

Holds Its ssth Annual session iu Augusta
Jan. 3Oth and 31st.
The Belfast contingent left on the
1925 P. NJ. train Jan. 3Oth for Augusta,
with some forebodings as to what might
be in store for them in the way of the
weather. More than once has the
Maine Press Association encountered
billiards during its annual meetings,
and on one memorable occasion it was
snowed-in at the Preble House in Port
land. The weather was all right at the
start, however, and while enjoying the
more than tropical warmth of Jerry
car the travellers looked out upon a
truly wintry landscape. The hills, the
trees, the ponds, the streams, all were
covered with snow. Save at the sta
tions there were no signs of life out OF
doors, no teams, no cattle; but it was
good to see the generous woodpiles at
the doors of the houses we passed and
to note the blue smoke curling up from
the chimneys. Even at Burnham the
mercury was not so low but that we
could enjoy breath of outdoor air on
the platform while awaiting the west
bound train, which fortunately was not
crowded as usual. The writer had for
seatmate gentleman from the Pa
cific coast, who did not reveal his mis-
sion doWn-east, but who had many
questions to ask concerning the good old
State Of Maine, which is so largely rep
resented in the section from which he
came. In due time the train rolled into
Augusta, and soon after the travellers
were under the roof of the Augusta
House, hostelry that for more than
half a century has figured largely in the
social and political life of the State
Capitol. 1t these old walls could speak,
what tales they would tell. The writer
has been a more or less frequent So
journer here for score of years, and a
cot at the Augusta House would be pre-
ferred to suite of rooms elsewhere.
Just now the house is more than crowd
ed. Cots are placed in all available
places; rooms are engaged for days
ahead; and proprietor and clerks alike
are sad because they have to turn peo-
pie away Having written week or
two beforehand we rejoice in the pos
session of rooms next to the sky; but
they have a pleasant outlook, are
warmed by radiators, and contain every
thing needed for comfort. We can Ger
tainly 'look down" on the less favored
ones who have sighed for ''cot''-and
got it.

other interests of the State. Therefore be
it
Resolved, that the publishers of Maine
have a right to stand upon basis of equal
ity before the law with the rest of their fell
low citizens.
Resolved, that we heartily endorse the
bill now pending before the judiciary COM
mittee as a measure whose just purpose it
is to bring our ancient laws into harmony
with modern conditions. 1t is conservative
and fair in all its provisions, and embodies
nothing that it is not already in force in
leading States of the Union.
We are fully convinced that its passage
will be simply an act of justice.

The Thursday morning session was
held in the Senate chamber and was de-
voted to business. Among those pres
ent was Hon. Joseph A. Holman of Au-
gusta, charter member, who until
recent years had joined the summer ex-
cursions and attended the annual meet
ings, pleasure which advancing years
and illness have compelled him to fore
go. He had hearty welcome from his
old friends and associates. There was
some discussion over the place of next
summers excursion, but the majority
were of the opinion that the association
should visit the Pan-American EXPOSE
ton at Buffalo, if satisfactory arrange
ments can be made for the trip, and it
was so decided. Messrs. c. w. Robbins
of Old Town, c. F. Flynt of Augusta,
and John M. S. Hunter of Pennington
were appointed as the excursion Com
mittee.
George S. Rowell of the Portland Ad-
vertiser presented the following resolu-
tions relative to the proposed libel law,
which were unanimously adopted by the
association:
Whereas the present libel laws of Maine
were adopted more than three-fourths of a
century ago, when the conditions of news
paper publication were entirely different
from what they are at the present time. AS
result these laws are today inequitable
and burdensome. Moreover they single out
publishers for the imposition of harsh and
unjust rules of law that do not apply to
