COTTON GINNING.
Washington, ID. c.,
May 9Th, 1908.

The Iberian:,
transmit herewith for your in
to,mation a copy of Census Bulle.
tin No 9, containing a report on
,he cotton production OF 1902,
.oyether with comparative stats
,;es Of the crops OF 1901, 1900
and 1899. as reported by the gin
,ors Pursuant to an Act of Con.
gress approved March 6, 1902, re-
ouiring the collection and publ
cafion of cotton statistics at fre,
ouent intervals during the gin
ming season, the Census Office has
anpoin.ed agents throughout the
cotton.producing states, and has
publlshed preliminary reports dur
iug the ginning season of 1902 3,
showing the quantities of cotton
oinned to October Is and Decem-
her l3, respectively, and final
report on the total quantity ginned
from the growth of 1909. The
organization having been COM
pleted and the ginners being now
acquainted with the methods of
the office, it is proposed to in
crease the number of reports for
the crop of 1908. The first report
will include all cotton ginned from
the growth of 1903 up to Septem-
Der 1; the second, to October IS;
the third, to November Is; the
fourth to December 13; the fifth
win be the final report and show
The growth of the year as returned
BY ginners. 1t will be seen that
this plan contemplates practically
monthly reports during the cotton
eiDDing season. With the hearty
cooperation of the ginners this is
comparatively easy task, but
without their personal support it
Is an impossible undertaking.
The success Of the reports on the
Uopo 1902 is due to the enthusi-
astic support accorded the local
agents by the ginners, and the
Office is encouraged by this coop
eratiOn to assume increased obi
cations for the ensuing season.
tits only necessary that the gin
ners give the Census Office their
continued personal support in or
der to make this system of the
creates. possible advantage to the
cotton growers. The county
agent in his canvasses for the
crop of 1908 will secure from each
ginner in his territory the total
quantity of cotton ginned from
the beginning of the season to the
dates Indicated above. The IN
formation furnished these agents
vill be regarded as strictly conf
dential, and the publication Of the
operations of individual establish
nents will in no case be permit
ia.
Most desirable results would be
secured through uniform sys
lem Of bookkeeping on the part of
the ginners. A record book,
posted daily, would be of great
advantage to the ginner in bis
s1Uft to furnish reliable statistics

by the really thoughtful writers moreI
frequently than that of any other car
dinal. As an example, special cor-l
respondent Of prominent Americana
daily last April wrote as follows to hts
paper concerning Cardinal Sarto and
the papacy:
at is Cardinal Giuseppe Sarto, thel
patriarch of Venice, the friend and
patron Of Able Perosi the composer,
who is at the present moment regard-
ed not only throughout Italy. but hke-
wise in the principal capitals Of Eu3
rope, as destined to become the next
pope. So little has been heard Of him}
until now In connection with the papaf
succession that he may be regarded inl
the light Of a dark horse in the race
which is perhaps due to the fact that
he rarely goes to Rome, that he has
never been a resident of the Eternal
City, and that from the time of his bel
ing appointed vicar general of the dio-I
cese of Treviso until now he has held
steadily aloof from all the projects Oh
the curia.

value OF these services was so much

bought return ticket. But the unex-
Dected has happened, and Leo's pre-
diction has been fulfilled-C Cardinal
sarto is Pope Plus x, and the Roman
Catholic church is satisfied that the
progress made during the reign of
Leo XIII. is to be continued and per-
haps amplified under the administra-
tion Of the present pontiff
Pope Leo's prediction was considered
remarkable by reason of the fact that
because of Sarto's position with refer
ence to modus vivendi between the
church and the state he seemed to be
on that important point directly OPP
posed to Leo. For instance, Cardinal
earto publicly announced his joy when
there We're strong probabilities of a
union between church and state, and
his accession to the pontificate has long
been regarded in certain quarters as
the solution of the Roman problem so
hong unsolved and so long cause of
dissension over all Italy, to say nothing

meddled with politics, and for extreme
independence. He is also patron of
the arts, and launched Father Lorenzo
Perosi, the celebrated priest composer.
The cardinal is recognized as one of
the most learned men in the church.
He is stickler for the exact truth as
between the church and the people, and
won much renown some years ago by
destroying certain relics of doubtful
authenticity. He brings to his high
office character of most attractive
modesty, unusual energy in the diree-
ton of matters large and small, the
talents of fine administrative officer
and the first qualities of an organizer.
In addition to his abilities and his un.
doubted Christian character. the car

more than year before he publicly de-
clared for union between church and
state, speaking in no uncertain way
His utterances created great sensa-
ton, and it was felt that he might have
offended the holy father by the fervor
of his words. Apparently he received
the silent appreciation Of the pope, in
whose estimation he ever held firm
place.
1t was said at the time that Cardinal
Sarto made his public announcement
that the Austrian and Prussian ambas-
sailors at the Vatican were endeavor-
ing TO induce the papal authorities to
agree to modus yiyendi, Emperor
Francis Joseph is reported to have
written several letters to the pope with
this end in view, and Emperor William
of Germany is said to have been equal
ly anxious to bring about an under
standing between the Vatican and the
Italian government.
For more than three decades a gulf
has yawned between the rival palaces
of king and pope, gulf material and
political. For thirty-fye years-since
the Italians battered down the massive
walls near the old Porta Pia-earnest
men and noble women of all parties
have been dreaming and hoping that
the mighty breach between victors and
vanquished might in some way be
closed.
1t was said of Pope Leo that in 1873,
when he had just succeeded Pope Plus
TX, he longed for some amicable ar
rangement with the Italians, but if
he did reasons of state outweighed his
private wish. He was silent, and thus
pledged himself to the no compromise
party.
1t is strange that while Sarto was
never seriously considered by the pub
lie at large or by the ordinary press
correspondents as pspal probability,

N April, 1902, when the late Pope

IL Leo NIl1. was in practically per-
feet health and there was no
probability that his brilliant reign
would be SO soon cut short by the grim
reaper, the pontiff remarked in a seri-
Gus conversation with Father Perosi,
the Italian priest whose musical COM
positions have made him famous the
world over, that he was convinced that
his successor would be Cardinal Sarto
the patriarch of Venice. When the
recent conclaye went into session there
seemed little probability that Leo's
prophecy would be fulfilled, for RAM
polla seemed to have an almost COM
manding lead among the members of
the college of cardinals, with Oreglia,
Gotti and Serafino Vannutelli as strong
possibilities. Besides these, there were
several others who were thought to be
likely candidates in case the rivalry
among the leaders should become so
intense as to make the election of any
one of them impossible. But Sarto's
name was scarcely mentioned except
among the most reverent who remem-
bered the prediction of Pope Leo and
those who We're mindful of the pepu-
larity in the Catholic church of Cardi-
nal Sarto, which by many was regard
ed as being second not even to
that of Leo himself. Cardinal Sarto.
