A REMARKABLE FAMILY.
John c. Wfngate Has Cause to Feel
Proud of His Town.


John c. Wingate. a member of the State
Board of Tax Commissioners, who has the
honor of having a town named after him,
was at the Denison last night. He and
Parks NJ. Martin. another member Of the
board, were here yesterday arranging for
the annual meeting OF the board, which
will begin next month 1.-THE sensation in
our town for the last few days. said Mr.
Wingate last night, "is a new born baby
boy that has eleven grandparents living.
That's something remarkable, isn't II? But
It's true, and nearly everybody in town is
talking about it, and the parents have had
TO hold little informal receptions. The
baby was born to Manford and Pearl Smith
Webb on June 10. The boy is to be called
Reuben, at my suggestion, after one of his
grandparents. Manford Webb. the father
OF the child, is a son of Charles and Ollie
Webb. Charles Webb is a son of Horace
and Sarah Webb, all of whom now live in
Wingate. Horace Webb is a son of Reuben
and Ann Steward. now living at Romney
Ind, in their eighty-fifth year. They cele-
brated their siXty-third marriage anniver-
sary the 5th of May this year. They were
among the earlier settlers near Pleasant
Hill, now Wingate. Mrs. Ollie Webb s
father, William Thomas, lives near Hopes
ton, Ill, and was born near Pleasant Hill.
This makes seven living ancestors or
grandparents on the fathers side, or an
unbroken chain to and including the fifth
generation. On the mothers side Reuben
has four grandparents. His mother, Pearl
Smith Webb, is a daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Sarah Smith, now living in Wingate. Mrs.
Smiths mother and Mr.. Smiths father live
near Newtown, in Fountain county This
is the third family at Wingate that has sur
vived the fifth generation, the other two
being the William Krug and Alexander
Mcclure families, each early settlers of
that section-a good section to live in If you

Republicans who come up from the

OF the Democratic strongholds of the State.
Up to this time the Republicans have not

FACTS, FIGURES AND
FANCIES.

The usual October uncertainty prevails
now in the cotton world. Mr.. Buston,
the European crop gucsser, has passed
through the South on limited trains.
counted the bolls on few dozen stalks
and promulgated a guess of II 200 900
bales with several hundred thousands
additional bales, provided frost does not
appear in the next few weeks. Whenever
there is sunshine instead of ice in Sep
TENDER and October the "bear element
all over the world begin harping on top
crop regardless of the range of the
thermometer or other climatic conditions.
Their idea is that with a few fall show
ers and some sunshine cotton will germi-
nate and mature to full growth, even
though the temperature ranges twenty to
forty degrees below summer heat. Of
course ii this were true the cultivation of
cOttoi. would not be confined to tropical
or semi-tropical regions but Illinois or
Iowa would be as productive cotton States
as North Carolina or South Carolina. The
truth is when the summer season has
ended the time for terminating and fully
maturing cotton boil has ended.
Mr.. Theo. II. Price has issued a recent
circular showing from the records that
among the smallest crops made during
past years, were when the killing frosts
occurred latest in the season, and that
some of the largest crops were gathered
when killing frosts came earliest. These
facts prove that the change of sea-
son and the climatic conditions other
than killing frosts can and do stop the
maturing of the cotton boil.
Much is being said in cotton circles
about the action of Mr.. Price and 9TH
crs who are said to have bought half
million or more bales of cotton for jan
uary delivery and people everywhere are
wondering whether the bull crowd
will keep the prices up. move them up
higher and win out. or whether the bear
contingent" will be able to so overload
the market as to rout Mr.. Price and his
hackers and reduce the prices on January
and other options.
If Mr.. Price and his associates
have half million bales Of January cot
ton bought and have money enough to
protect it, there is no question but what
present and even higher prices will be
maintained. for there is no spot cotton
market on earth where the spot cotton
can be bought at the prices TOR cotton
now prevailing, forwarded TO New York,
and delivered on January contracts at
present January quotations, without
loss of from one dollar to two dollars
per bale. and spot cotton on Southern
markets, both in the interior and at the
ports. seem to be holding their own better
even than contract cotton for future deliv-
cry. The large decrease in the October
movement as compared with last year
means something surely, and reasonable
conclusion is that it means a much short
or CROP than Mr. Buston and other Euro
mean gucssers would have us believe, and
| if this be true, higher prices are inevi-
