Saturday. Dec. IA.
The cotton markets did not huctuate
much to-day in the absence of any
great demand, or other influence cal
culated to affect prices. Interest was
apparently lacking in the country. as
we'll as at the ports, and the day closed
with transactions small.
The developments of the past few
weeks have convinced many of the
trade in short crop views, which they
base mainly upon the fact that the
country fails to respond largely with
offerings to a rise in prices. 1t is true
the advances so far have probably
not been very attractive to most hold
ers, and especially those who have
bought the cotton from the farmer on
speculation and are holding it for a
turn. But it is urged that the market
has huctuated enough to bring out
cotton If it was to be offered freely
around preasnt prices. In the country
the indifference shown at times illus
trates the independence of holders
about trading when they do not re-
gard the price as attractive. Good
middling to-day was around s S-16c,
with limited sales being made at this
price. Spots were firmly held at quo
tations.
Spirits of turpentine closed firm, with
the demand good. Resins closed quiet
and unchanged. The demand for ma
val stores has kept up we'll for some
time, and none look for a falling off
in the demand for some time, and
certainly not before the holidays.
The wholesale markets closed steady.
The country demand for Christmas
supplies has been filled, and merchants
are relieved of the active squirt which
they had in shipping out goods for
the past two weeks. The following
resume of the markets will show their
tone and quotations at the closing to-
day:
The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1901-12-15

and closed firm and unchanged, with
no further sales reported. While there
was a noticeable easier tendency, the
undertone of the marke tbs still
very firm, and feeling among
the trade inclines to the full mainte-
nance of present prices until after the
holidays. Any decline meantime will
be a surprise to many. Receipts to-
day, 40, and the exports, 1898.
ROSINS-The rosin market closed
quiet and unchanged, with fair de-
mand from exporters. No opening
sales were reported. Sales of 54S We're
reported at the closing call. The de-
mand continues to be principally for
lows, with the high grades taken most
ly along with lots. Receipts, 3,253, and
the exports 1920. Prices as follows.

Pleasant Words for Abilene

Mrs. A. H. Thompson, president Of
the Topeka federation, says in the
Topeka Herald Of her visit there last
week:
"Abilene is a beautiful town, a typ
ical Kansas town; the home Of typical
Kansas people. Its streets are shad-
ed with trees, its homes are attractive
and many Of Them elegant and its
people are awake to the interests, the
demands and opportunities Of the day.
1t goes without saying that the club
women OF Abilene are interested in
their town and working for it. The
three clubs Of the place have united
to form library association and have
just completed their second rummage
sale for its benefit, realizing 5000
from the two sales which with the
proceeds Of lecture course gives
them 1000 slready in hand. 1t is
planned to continue the work until
Abilene has free public library

DEFINING THE BOUNDARIES
Union Pacific Wants to Lease Right
Of WAY Lands.

A Union Pacific land agent has been
going over the road In Saline county
claiming that the right Of way grant
was 100 feet on each side OF the road
and offering to lease this land to the
farmers free, providing that In case
of wheat or other property being
destroyed by fire from passing en-
gines the farmers would not hold the
railroad company responsible,
A few farmers signed the lease, but
others refused, claiming that the
roads right-of-way is only DO feet on
each side Of the road bed. At New
Cambria the agent wanted to lease to
s. P. Donmyer land on which his
elevator and residence is located. Mr..
Donmyer has hired an attorney and
this technlcality Of law may be taken
to the higher courts. A man who
was for years on the Salina land office
says to the best Of his knowledge that
the road has 200 feet right oi.way ex-
cept in cases where land was filed on
prior to the building Of the road.
The Union Pacific action Is thought
to be due to the fact that the COM
pany last year was compelled to pay
many losses for grain burned along
the right-oi.way.

GUESSED THE OTHER WAY.
Can the superintendent Draw Pay a.
Trustee9

BY reference to section 5, OF county
high school law, you will find the fol-
lowing: "In the establishing Of such
high school, the county commission
ers shall imme 1istely proceed to ap.
point six persons, who shall, with the
county superintendent Of instruction,
constitute a board OF trustees for said
school," From this construction, the
attorney general, in 1889, held that
the county superintendent is mem
Der Of the board Of trustees, and that,
according to section 7, he is president
by virtue OF his office, and that ac-
cording to section 10, the county com.

The sermon was preached by Faith

"Behold thy mother" and whose ten
derness and power Of intercession
with her Divine Son was shown forth

which through the morning offering
Of all our daily actions with His Dl-
vine Heart become meritorious;

Harvest Home Service.

The harvest home service at the
Lutheran church Sunday was a most
interesting occasion. The church
was decorated with a profusion Of
fruits, flowers and vegetables, very
appropriate to the occasion, and the
sermons by the pastor, Rev. Fuller
Bergstresser, were devoted to the
spirit Of the time.
Rally Day was observed by the
Sunday school in the morning, an ex.
cellent program being given under
the management Of the efficient super.
intendent. Mrs. H. L. Humphrey.

this opinion, and one from the county
