Y. * NJ. v. X. X. Statement.

Elsewhere appears the twenty
third annual report of the Sazoo
X Mississippi Valley Railroad
Company TO President Stuyvesant
Fish. The statement is interest
esting and commends itself to the
thought of the people of this sec
ton for reason that have their orr
gin in conditions of local pride.
First, the Yazoo IL Mississippi
Valley Railroad is almost like ii
Memphis institution. because it's
general Offices are located here and
it's highest commissioned direct
ing officials, outside of New York
and Chicago, make their homes in
this oity. Secondly, it is the main
artery through which the CONNER
cial and industrial interests of
Memphis reach the marvclously
Delta country and through the
same artery of commerce are the
the teeming products Of that ter
ritory poured into this city. LII
for no other reason the increasing
usefulness of the Yazoo d Missis-
sippi Valley Railroad as a part of
the Illinois Central system would
appeal to Memphians and the peo-
pie of the great Mississippi Valley.
The report in question shows a
most satisfactory condition of the
property and points unerringly to
q wise and constructive manageri-
al policy.
The gross receipts from traffic
were 1865, 1874 and the expense
of operation and taxas $6,095.6lS.
The excess of income was 81 TO
pa and the fixed charges 81 49,
65S, the surplus being S57S.6l5.
The income for the past year from
passenger traffic alone amounted
to 81, ISL .O47, an increase of S2i0.-
391. This fact not only indicates
greater and wider circulation on

the part of the people of the terri
tory served by the road, but il
shows that commercial and socia
intercourse between Memphis and
that great territory is augmentine
with time and increased transpo-
tation facilities.
/ President Stuyvesant Fish
points to this large increase OF
passenger traffic receipts as con
vincing evidence of the prosperity
in the territory influenced by the
operation of the Yazoo Il Missis-
sippi Valley Railroad. AS this
report will be freely circulated, we
expect to hear that the National
Republican Committee will seize
upon it as campaign literature and
attempt to make ii appear that
the prosperous conditions whence
proceeded the increased revenues
of the Yazoo q Mississippi Valley
Railroad were solely influenced by
Roosevelt's administration aud
repu blican legislation. But at
the outset they would find them
selves up against stone wall.
For instance, the statement shows
that, in spite of an increase of
sos, 2l9 in gross receipts, the sur
plus over fixed charges was but
trilie over $4,000. This is said
To be due In part To greatly in
creased expense of conducting
transportation arising from higher
cost of material. particularly fuel,
and TO the very great increase
which has taken place in pay
ments to employees, the pay rolls
for the year 1904 having amount
eel to 50. 755, 79l 80. AS against So
1876, $40 SO in 1903, an increase of
1851, 400. 80" Hence it is appar-
ent that while the earnings of the
railroad show considerable gain,
the increase has been paid out to
employees In wages and for in
creased cost of material used i'm
maintenance of way. So, after all
the showing really represent moth
ing more from the prosperity
standpoint than by the handling
of greater volume of money by
the railroad company, which in
turn was redistributed to meet in
creased costs of operating because
of advances in the cost of living
to it's employes.-Memphis Com
mercial Appeal.

September Cotton Report.

The Times Democrat presents
herewith reports from its staff oil
special correspondents on the con-
dition of the cotton crop at the
end OF Septem Der. Correspondents
were instructed To investigate and
report on the following points
L. The improvement or deteriora-
ton since the last previous report
(Sept 81. ,. The loss, if any, by
shedding. 3 The damage. if any,
by boil weevil or other insects. 1.
The progress in picking, and the
sufficiency of labor for that pur-
pose. D. The Willingness or un-
Willingness of farmers to accept
current prices Is. Any general
remarks deemed important I.
Texas correspondents were re-
quested to devote special attention
TO tae ravages of the boil weevil.
While many sections report
more or less deterioration during
Septemb Der. it is possible. that on
the whole. the loss was not so

farmers.
The unusually hct, dry weather
of September caused cotton to open
very rapidly throughout the entire
belt, many sections reporting prac-
tically the entire crop now open.
This condition has made it neces-
sary to hasten the harvest as much
as possible, and there is in almost
every quarter an urgent demand
for pickers that can not be sup
piled, even at wages much higher
than usually paid. With fields
white with open cotton, this search
ty of labor for picking is just now
a most serious problem with the
planter. Heavy rains during Dc
tober would be disastrous in many
parts of the belt.
The early and rapid maturity of
the crop, together with the fact
that early varieties of cotton were
planted in sections menanced oy
the boil weevii, resulted in an un-
nsally heavy movement to market
during September. As rule
farmers have shown disposition
to sell freely at ten cents or better,
but an unwillingness to accept
less. In many sections farmers are
disposed to hold for better prices
than have been offered this season.
While the boil weevil has done
great damage to the Texas crop,
and there has been serious loss
there from other causes, the in
creased acreage planted AID the
methods adopted to overcome the
loss by weevil, have doub tless add
ed some to the crop of that State
last year, but what that increase
will be is yet to be determined.
With favorable weather for an
other month, and a late frost. the
yield will probably be some larger
than last season, but this increase
will not be in proportion to the in
creased acreage planted.
These reports are brought down
to noon of Saturday, Oct. l. The
next aud final report of The Times
Democrat for this season will be
published about Dec. /. Thel
