COTTON is KING AGAIN.
Comes to It's Own Once More as the
Monarch of Our Crops,

ZONES TO Its OWN once More the
Monarch of Our Crops.
Despite the ravages Of the boil weevil,
and despite, also, the ups and downs of
the spectators in the cotton market,
cotton, that most useful product of the
sunny South, is at the front again as the
monarch of American crops. Exports of
cotton and its products from the United
States exceed by millions the value of
any other single crop sent out, and dur
ing the fiscal year ending June brought
into this country more than 100000, 900.
The exports have very nearly doubled

fiber which go to make up this great total
are cottonseed oil, cottonseed meal, cot
ton waste, cotton seed in the natural
state, and cotton manufactures. Cotton
seed meal and cottonseed oil as factors
in export trade are of recent develop
ment. Exports of both OF these amount
now to more than $25,000O00 annually,
while only very short time ago the seed
from which these are manufactured was
considered almost worthless. The value
Of cottonseed oil exported from this
country last year was more than $14, OO0,
900. Of oil cake and oil-cake meal ex-
ported from the United States last year,
amounting to nearly $20,000,O0O $4,500,-
900 worth went to Germany, $4000,00O
to Belgium, $3,500,000 to the Neither
lands, and a little less than $3,500,000
to the United Kingdom. All this means
prosperity for the South, better homes,
better schools, and more happiness and
contentment all around for her people.

ANOTHER FEUO
Precipitated in .Breathitt
County.

Jackson, KY, April 3.-The murder
of James Johnson by "Bummer'
Spicer on Friday night has precipi
tated Breathitt county on the verge
of another feud. The killing of John
son appears to have been an assassl
nation of the same order as those oi
Cox, Cockrill and Marcum, which re-
suited in the state militia being pres
ent to preserve order In Beathitt fol
six months.
The excitement in Jackson Is in
tense and another outbreak Is expect
ed. The general opinion is that the
assassination of Johnson is but one OF
others to follow. Since the withdraw
al of the troops, the feudists have re
sumed their reign of lawlessness, the
long delay in executing Curtis Jett
and the power of the Hargis faction
with the state authorities having EN-
boldened it's members. More trouble
is feared.

CONGRESS
Has Plenty Of Business
for the Week.

Washington, d. c., April 3.-The
coming week in congress gives prom
ise of UNUSUAL action.
In the senate, the postoffice appro-
priation bill will have the right of
way. The Culberson amendment pro-
viding for the appointment OF a COM
mittee to investigate the postoffice de-
partment, will no doubt cause pro-
longed and bitter debate.
If Mr.. Hoar does not give way to
other business tomorrow he will call
up the bill for the protection of the
president of the United States, accord
ing to previous agreement. Mr.. Glib.
son Montana), expects to submit some
remarks on the land laws.
On Wednesday Mr.. Patterson (Col.
orado), will advocate the exclusion of
Chinese immigration.
Thursday will be devoted to eulo.
gies of the late Senator Hanna of
Ohio.
Appropriation bills and conference
reports will occupy the earlier part
of the week in the house, but if the
Swayne impeachment case is called
up Thursday, as has been agreed, 1t
will cause a stiff contest and long de,
bate.

CAAS. S, TAYLOR
Well Known News
paper Man, is Dead.

Charles s. Taylor, formerly an EN-.
ploye of the News-Democrat and later
on the reportorial star of the Reposi-
tory in this city, died at the home of
his father at Wakefield, Saturday, OF
consumption, after an illness of sever.
al months.
While in this city Mr.. Taylor made
a large number of friends that were
not confined alone to newspaper CIR
cles. He was Q young man OF un-
blemished character, who led q clean
life and was respected by all who
knew him. In his profession he show
ed ability and had done some maga.
zine work of merit.
The deceased was 26 years of age
and single. It was his intention to 60
west for his health, but when planning
for the trip his strength failed so rap
idly that 1t had to be given UP. For
year or more before his death he
frequently spoke of his physical con.
dition and stated that he feared the
disease that eventually made him its
victim. He was a resident Of Canton
for about two years.

The walk up from the station to the Office takes
only four minutes. And so he figures that 10
makes the entire journey in ffty-nine minutes.
and adds exultantly:
Its SO much convenient than The
Bronx. where once lived Then It took ma
a whole hour
And should some Manhattanite ask him il thu
mosquitoes ever bother him. he ALWAYS answers
that Slumber Corners is wonderfully exennpt
from such a pest. and that although all the rest
of the State of New-Jersey may swarm with
mosquitoes, they have never entered the Eden
where he has his home. The screens in his
windows and doors and around his porch, he ex-
plains are only TO keep out flies.
With the coming of winter, however. the COM
muter grows less boastful. He is not 50 ready
to exploit the remarkable virtues of SIumber
Corners formerly. When he comes into the
office with his rubbers covered with mud. his
overcoat wrinkled as if he had slept in it over
night. and thin veil of ashes on his hat. he
never calls anybOdys attention to these details
And when a snowstorm sweeps down on the
country and the river thickens with fce and he
gets down to the office two hours late hs
merely answers inquiries by saying that he
missed the train or that there was change in
the schedule. or that the baby wasn't WELL and
he wanted to have = iAIk with the doctor.
Should the city m@. however, make his coun-
try friend early and sudden visit some winter
morning. he might learn that the baby's Illness
or a change in the timetable was by no means
the sole cause of the commuters tardinesz
Could he obtain the whole truth, he would dis
cover that there certain cold stern realities
about country life In the winter that his subur-
ban Friend had never limited at For example,
On morning made dark BY q snowstorm tina

The Comu Talks More about the Former than about
Later-Some Reasons

When the city man becomes disseminated with
his many rooms and BATH" and longs for
the country. he should never take suburbanite
into his confidence He will never obtain an I'M
biassed opinion of country life by talking with
a country resident In the summer time he viii
find him full of boasts and in the winter full
OF explanations. The only way TO get a genu-
Inc. aboveboard. straightforward. unprejudiced
conception of country life is to visit suburban
friend Unexpectedly and for ones self.
Such visit would better be made in the dead
OF winter than in midsummer. The commuters
statements regarding the beauties of nature IN
June and July contain certain amount of
tective Everybody knows that trees and grass
grow in summer. and that they are pleasant to
look upon.
And yet the commuter always talks as II he
were the first to discover that the country Is
pleasanter than the city in hot weather. When
morning and asks you how you slept last night
you know of course. that he slept all right him
self. and that he only wants the opportunity to
say so. And when he gets the chance he will
tell you how cool the nights are at Slumber
Corners, and how the wind always circulates
through that wonderful house of his and how
delightful is the chirping of the crickets at
night and how healthcul his children are. how
much they weigh, how much they eat how
much they look like him, and all because they
can live in the country
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1904-01-10

When all other themes are exhausted, the
suburbanite is always ready TO dilate air.
This subject OF air is especially dear to him. and
offers boundless field for his intellect to dis
port itself He Will tell you. to begin with. how
much purer the air is in Slumber Corners than
In New-York Then again, Slumber Corners IS
LOO feet higher than New-York a fact which
proves that the air of Slumber Corners Is dryer
than that OF New-York, and especially beneh-
and he Will tell how he once suffered from asth-
ma, catarrh, bronchitis. tonsilitis, laryngitis
with threat Of tuberculosis, before he left
New-York for Slumber Corners And should
you suggest that his Manhattan office on the
twentieth floor. is even higher than the beauti-
ful hamlet where he lives. he viii tell you that
New-York air is full of germs. In Slumber Cor
ners germs cannot exist. although he may not
say that Slumber Corners is too slow for germs.
If anything is ever said about the long ride
on the ferry the train the suburbanite is
ready with statistics to prove how rapidly he
travels back and forth each day. He has fig
ured it all out to the fraction of minute. II
he can shave an hour down one or two minutes
he does so. much the storekeeper marks
down his goods to remove the dollar sign
He tells you 1T is only n six minute walk from
his house to the station. that the train Is an
express. making no stops. that 1t comes the
nineteen miles between Slumber Corners and
Hoboken In thirty-five minutes and that the
Terry makes the river trip IN fourteen minutes.

When thu

comruter generally oversleeps. When thu
alarm clock goes of. he opens his eyes for q
moment, sees how dark II is, and then makes
himself believe the clock was set two hours too
early. The snow Is coming down SO quietly
and the ground is so thickly carpeted that pass
Ing teams do not arouse him 1t is not until ons
OF the children falls out OF bed or the cook
drops a tray OF dishes the kitchen floor that
he begins to realize that the night has passed
On such morning the furnace fire always goes
out 1t has kept up a heroic fight all night for
its existence. but the battle was too protracted
and reinforcements came too late He tries ia
wash his face, but finds that the pipes are
frozen He looks for n clean towel but all the
towels that are not soiled were washed yester-
day and now hang like so many sheets OF metal
on the line in the back yard.
Should there be no cook. the commuter crawl,
downstairs and builds the fire himself He -
compelled to do this. whether he wants to or not
1t is only an hour before train time and he
knows that his wife will certainly need another
half hour to curl her hair before she would even
be prepared to build a fire The ashes this
morning choke the range If they had been
accommodating for weeks. and the wood sputters
and refuses to burn OF course the wood was
left outdoors all night
After the fires built. the cornnuter realizes
that he must clear n path to the street and
clean the sidewalk. If he doesn't, he will cause
trouble not only at home. but throughout Sluul-
Der Corners. His wife viii certainly catch a
cold. which she will attribute to the soft snow
she had 20 wade through" and which he did
not shovel away. And all the citizens who pass
his gate will look at that unclaimed path and
size up the situation in one of two ways They
