COTTON IN TEXAS POOR.
Boil Wesvil and Other Insects Doing Much
Injury.
(By the Associated Press.)


Washington, d. c., Oct. Following is
the last weekly summary of crop condi-
tions to be issued by the Weather Blu
reau this season:
The temperature conditions of the
week ending September 80 were highly
favorable throughout the central valleys,
lake region. middle Atlantic States, and
New England, and no damaging frosts oc-
CURED In these districts. Excessive rains
interfered with farm work in portions Of
the South Atlantic and East Gulf States.
The week has been favorable for ma
turing and gathering corn, and reports
from the principal corn States indicate
this date has been cut. The crop is now
practically safe from frost in all dis
tricts. @t
THE weather conditions in the cotton
belt have been very favorable for pick
ing except over portions of Georgia, Flor
Ida and North Carolina where this work
has been retarded to some extent by rains
of the latter part of the week. Picking
has progressed rapidly in the central and
western districts, where cotton has
opened rapidly, the bulk of the crop be-
ing gathered in some sections. Over the
eastern portion OF the cotton belt the low
temperatures of the week have damaged
the staple In portions of North Carolina,
Georgia and Florida, while the sea island
crop of South Carolina is suffering from
drought. In Texas late cotton is being
damaged by boil weevil and other insects,
and the outlook for top crop is very poor.
only small part of the tobacco crop,
and that in Kentucky and Tennessee, re-
mains unhoused. The reports generally
Ind site that this crop has been secured
in satisfactory shape

THE FALL FOLIAGE.

The first year of the new century will be remembered. among other things. for the unusual density, richness and beauty of the foliage on the trees. Autumn will probably contribute its fuil quota to make the year remarkable IF this respect. Springs lush tender = hess and summers exuberant develop ment of leaf are to be followed by such glorious exhibitions of coloring in au- tumn as are only occasionally to be en- 5oyed. Already the sumacs are blaz- ing with such brilliant shades and masses of red as they seldom wear. The oaks arc giving us a pleasing var iety Of warm russets. the'elms and box elders flame in yellow. The naples have as yet shown only n few of their giories, but these arc coming Como ark is Tow a vision of autumnal beau- ty to aii who love color.-St. Paul Pio- Eser Press.

From his talk it developed that he had been a student of the history of the Louisiana purchase" said President Francis, of the St. Louis exposition, in telling of the cordial interest which President Roosevelt has manifested in the coming fair in the southwest. Mir. Francis is to be credited with dis covery, but it cannot be called ori- ginal one. The president has made a study of the history of that entire re- zion, and has written many volumes upon it. If Mir. Francis will go back to last year and read over Mr. Roose- velts letter of acceptance he will find that the latter knew something about the Louisiana purchase then and knew how to apply his knowledge to the is- sues of a political campaign.

get it-as much so as they would be If MT Howells were to permit his name to be placed upon the cover of story by some amateur novelist. or if MT. Riley were to sign a piece of doggere, written by some Michigan bard and and featured in the Century.
 Let us hope. however. that the edit ors who published the articles referred to by Mir. Hanna were imposed upon. There is strong probability that they were. As for MT. Hanna and the gentlemen fer whom he wrote. we fail to find any means of exonerating them. We notice that the naval gentlemen who are appearing as witnesses in the Schley case are very jselous of thsir standing as officers and gentlemen. To question the personal integrity of an officer of the navy. or of the army. is a matter of the most serious moment. Now, is MT. Hanna's statement to go unchalienegd? Unti. he has explained. every naval officer who has figured in the magazines since the battle of san tiago must naturally rest under suspi- cion. Fraud has been practIced, so MT. Hanna says. and he confesses that he has been a party to it. We hope some oflicer-author whose honor is dear to him will call for a court of inquiry whereby the unnamed offend CTS may be exposed.
 This is a matter that should not be Ignored. Where does integrity cease and license begin in the estimation of the officers for whom Mir. Hanna has exercised his literary ta.ents?

The question of the proposed subsidy to the projected beet sugar factory

The question of the proposed subsidy to the projected beet sugar factory
 having been thoroughly THIS discussed in mass meet WEEK ings at different points THE in the valley, and the SUBSIDY. various issues invoCed
 having been rather thor oughly covered in print, the soliciting committee appointed by the board Of trade will this week take up the work of obtaining subscriptions. Presum- ably most of our citizens who will be approached have already made up their minds on the subject In any event it is not necessary to dwell upon the great benefits which will accrue to this community from the successful operation of a large sugar factory. California has furnished such complete object lessons that no doubt remains as to whether the advantages to be de- rived here are sufficiently attractive.
 Upon one phase of the question. how ever, few words additional will not be superhuous. Everybody admits that a successful factory would be of almost 
 in view of the shortage in the supply of water for irrigation each season. doubt has been expressed whether the yield of beets could be depended upon to be satisfactory. It seems to be pretty definitely settled that the duty of water for beet culture is less than for many other crops. alfalfa, for in- stance. And it should be borne in mind that water storage is a certainty of the near future. Important work not yet made public has been accom- plished during the past summer, and The Republican has no doubt what ever that within another year storage will be assured. But it does not appear to be necessary to await storage in order to make success of beet cul- ture. The minor questions raised. as to whether the proper labor supply for the beet business will be obtainable. and so on. will adjust themselves.
 Upon one point particularly, empha- sis is necessary. The soliciting com mittee sent out by the board of trade is entitled to the most respectful hear ing and treatment from everybody The work of soliciting subscriptions of consequence for any purpose is an onerous task, never welcome to those whose public spirit has caused their selection Ii should be remembered that the members of the committee are not on business of their own, and are not laboring for any personal gain whatsoever. They are performing a duty which has been thrust upon them by the board of trade, and are entitled to the thanks of the community.
