with three.fourths Of their crop before
the advance comes, aud the cotton
and seed speculstor will reap the
benefit that belongs to the producer.
Hold your cotton and hold your cot
ton seed till the advance is here with
you. 1t will come much sooner if
you hold, for as long as you are part
ing with your crop freely, the specu-
lator will hold down prices.

the producers 500. 900, 600 to $685.

The Cost OF Cotton.
ceed.

Farmers and cotton experts do not
know what the cost Of producing cot
ton is. The quality Of the land, the
seasons sRd ths cost of labor ere the
important factors in the problem. A
farmer might make cotton one year at
o cost of s cents pound and the next
year it would cost z cents. To get ct
the real cost the rent Of land should
be counted in with other expenses.
Very little cotton is made on that
plan. The ordinary farmer takes no
account Of rent and the labor of him
self and children. The way to get at
the cost Of producing pound of cot
ton is to count the cost Of everything.
Take 60 acres as q two.horse farm.
One hand would have to be hired the
year around. A second hand would
be necessary five months. The &C.
count would stand this way:

The yield in this case is estimated
at 800 pounds to the sore. The cost
will be z cents q pound. IF the yield
should go above 800 pounds then the
cost per pound would be less. Count
ing the seed at $15 ton and the cot
ton at 10 cents the net gain would be
$3.50, or $12 an acre. If the land
should make only 500 pounds seed cot
ton to the acre the cost would be O

The position of the administration,
as indicated by Mr.. Hay, is that the

proof is to be presented as forcibly ~

Denver. Colo, June s. A reign OF
terror brought on by a diabolical dyna-
hitting plot, followed by rioting and an
assault upon the militia, exists in the
Cripple Creek mining district. Armed
men throng the streets and conflicts
are Of hourly occurrence. Militiamen
are marching hither and thither, max
ing arrests by wholesale. A number
Of union miners have been placed in
the military bullpen and others are be-
ing gathered in at frequent intervals.
City and county officials have been
compelled to resign their offices be-
cause of their, reputed sympathy. AS
near as can be estimated fifteen are
dead and score or more injured as q
result of the events leading up to the
conditions above described. Begin
uing with yesterday morning when
An Internal Machine,
set under the station platform at
Findley, on the line of the Florence &
Cripple Creek railroad. was touched
off and number of non-union men
who were waiting for a train were
killed and others horribly mangled,
events followed thick and fast. They
eliminated in riot at mass meet
ing where bullets few fast, and at
jured.
Later a company of militia was
marching past union headquarters,
pursuing their search for union
miners, they were fired upon, accord
ing to reports, by armed men con-
cealed in union hall. The soldiers
stormed the building and four miners
were wounded.
There were about sixty miners in
the hall. Soldiers stationed in the
streets and on the roofs of buildings
across the street fred volleys through
the curtained windows Of the union
hall. After exhausting their ammuni.

and bearing white flag. They were
surrounded by soldiers and escorted
to the bullpen. From all accounts
about 175 men are now held in the
