Jackson, Sept. 18.-The outlook Is
promising for spirited war among
the cotton seed oil mills of Mississip-
pi, and hostllities are likely to break
out in earnest at any moment.
The cotton crop is unquestionably
short, and as consequence the yield
of seed will be much smaller than
heretofore. This fact, coupled with
the influx of many new mills during
the past year, has created a lively
competition for seed, and the price is
steadily advancing. In some parts
of the state it has reached the 500
mark and mill managers express the
fear that $22 per ton will be offered
before the season closes.
The present prices render it we'll
nigh impossible for the mills to oper-
ate at profit unless there is a cor
responding advance in the price of
refined products, which at present
does not seem likely. Many of the
mills secured advance contracts for
seed at prices ranging from $15 to $17
per ton, and these seed are now being
consumed. When the storage houses
are emptied of contract seed the
competition Will commence IN earnest.

Colonel Henry's Speech.

The following is about the substance
of Colonel Henry's speech that he is
making in the different counties of the
state:
He explained that the object of the
st. Lc uis exposition was to celebrate the
one hundredth anniversary of what is
known in history as the Louisiana pur
chase. which was effected between Ma
poleon and Jefferson in 1903, when the
United States paid $4,000, 900 for all
that, section of land lying west of thu
Mississippi river belonging to France,
reaching from the i4ulf of Mexico to the
Canadian border, and extending to the
crest of the Rocky Mountains, out of
which had been carved twelves states
and two territories, comprising 1000, 900
square miles.
The Mississippi legislature, Mr., Hen
ry said, had appropriated $50, 900 for an
exhibit at the St.Louis exhibition, which
would be the greatest in the worlds
history; that 1t had authorized the ap-
pointment of state exposition bureau,
which had elected him state commits
sioner from Mississippi. and that he was
going over the state making short talks
to show the people the kind of exhibit
that was wanted
He review the history of all the expo
sitions given in this country since 1876,
and said that the Worlds Fair at St.
Louis would eclipse them all in size.

Jackson, Sept. 18.-Gdvernor Longi-
no this morning issueda statement de-
clining to call the legislature in extra
ordinary session for the purpose of re-
pealing the valued policy clause of the
insurance law.
The statement is quite lengthy and
says that the replies to his circular let
ter sent to legislators and others in
dicate that the legislature would decline
to repeal any part of the law except as
relates to cotton and that the insurance
companies decline to change this specl-
fic rule of insurance and will not is ,ue
blanket policies ifnothing but the clause
relating to cotton is repealed.
The governor therefore thinks that
the legislature could not grant the de-
sired relief for the present trouble and
concludes by expressing regret that he
cannot be of assistance in finding the
solution of the difficulty.
