TO COLLECT COTTON CENSUS
Government TO Collect From Gin
ners Statistics OF Cot
ton Produced.

At the last session of congress a
permanent census bureau was estab-
lished for the purpose of collecting
statistics as to the actual number of
bales of cotton produced in the Uni
ted States. To get at this correctly
the department has fallen upon the
plan of getting the ginners through
out the cotton growing section Of
the United States to assist. Gin
ners, men who own gin plants, as a
general rule, are honest, practical
men who can be depended upon for
honest, truthful statements, and this
department at Washington recently
appointed Mr.. d. J. MCGEE, of
Waxahachie, central agent for Ell
lis county, with instructions to col
lect from the ginners of the county
data as to the actual number of
bales Of cotton ginned by them, or
put up by their plants He will fur
nish the ginner with blanks on
which the make his reports, one in
October, one in December and an
other at the end of the season. 1t is
expected that these blanks will be
promptly filled out and returned to
Mr.. MCGEE, who in turn will for
ward them to the department at
Washington. These reports Mr..
McGee is required to treat as conf
Dental in so far as any individual
ginner is concerned. The totals he
will furnish the Daily Light for
publication, but the list of gins and
amount put up by each will not be
made public.
Now by the cooperation of the
ginners with Mr.. Niece, whom this
paper believes to be an honorable
and upright man, a correct and
truthful statement of the number of
bales of cotton raised in Ellis coun-
ty can be had, and we hope the GIN
ners will cooperate with him
promptly so that the truth may be
known, and the false reports so Of
ten sent out of the production of
cotton be eombatted. This is the
fairest method, TO our minds, ever
devised by the government for coll
Iecting cotton statistics and can
but result beneficially to the
farmer.
Already the government reports
are the only reliable reports given
out on the cotton crop, and now by
the cooperation of the ginners it
can be made so thorough that much
of the speculative feature can be re-
moved. We hope the Ellis county
glnners will respond promptly to
this effort of the government to Sc
cnre reliable statistics.

Meet After Fnrtr Ysnr.

]. S. Long, of Lima, o., and d. E.
Long, of Elkhart, Ind, were reunited
recently for the first time in 40 years.
At the breaking out of the war they
both enlisted, d. i. Long IN the Eighty
eighth Indiana and J. S. Long in the
Thirty-third Ohio. Both were in Sher-
mans army on the march to the sea
and both were wounded in the leg at
the battle of Bentonville, N. c., Sher-
mans last engagement, at about the
same hour. The elder brother, j. S.
Long, was captured by the confeder-
stes and his leg was amputated. The
other was cared for by his comrades
and his wound healed. Neither knew
that the other was in the army. by
some strange freak of fortune the two
brothers recently learned of each
others whereabouts and meeting
was the result.-Chicago Chronicle.
