INDIANA LOOKS GOOD.

The outlook for Democratic success
in Indiana this year is found very en-
couraging by Chairman Taggart. The
great Democrats are all back in line,
the silver Democrats are following Mr..
P,van.s support OF the ticket; the par
i1v has out the strongest state ticket
ever nominated and if Indiana is not
+ uad in the Democratic column be-
fore November it will be SO near that
the slightest jar on election day will
land it there.
Another thing that ausurs success
fo, the Democracy in Indiana is the
fact that in that region OF the
s,ate known as the gas belt, num-
bers of large factories, employing
thousands of men have close,' down
on account of the eXhausting OF the
supply OF natural gas. The lapor en-
ployed at these factories was COM
posed principally of foreigners, who
were handled by their trust employ
ers for the Republican party. With
this element greatly reduced. the
Republicans are correspondinsly weak
eakened. it is believed. to the
point of weakness.
Mr. Taggart has pledged himself to
carry Indiana for Parker and Davis
ard even the Republicans of that state
are of the opinion that the Democratic
national chairman will make good.

THE "eIe STICK"

The introduction OF the big stick"
In our national policy found its origin
in a speech made by President Roose-
yelt in Chicago, April =, 1902. At this
time the president felt it necessary to
explain to the people why large sums
were expended annually in the build
ing no of naval force which sur
passed the navies of foreign countries
in time of war He said: There is
hcmelv old adage which runs: Speak
softly and carry a BIG STICK; you
will go far This statement. taken
il. conjunction with the fact that

The Cane Injured.

The cold weather of this week
has done a great deal of harm to
the standing cane. 1t was at first
thought that the temperature was
not low enough to affect the cane
seriously, the thermometer drop
ping to 80 and barely below; but
the next couple of days of hot
sunshine showed up the harm that
had been done.
When the top bud of the cane is
pulled out 1T is black at It's base,
showing that the tops have been
killed. The effect of this will be,
should we have warm spell, to
start the eyes to sprouting, which
would rob the cane of it's sugar
making properties. To windrOw
all the cane now standing would
represent vast deal of extra la
Dor and expense to the farmer,
but it may be necessary to do this
in order to save 1t.
Those who have advocated that
a "dry freeze" does the least dam.
age to growing vegetation will
certainly have to hedge this year,
or find some reason why the Iule
failed to work this time.

Farmers Should Hold
Their Cotton.
that yard

Without going very deeply IN
to the matter it strikes us that
some excellent advice is given the
farmers of the South in the ad-
dress recently issued by Mr..
Harvie Jordan, president of the
Southern Cotton Growers Asso-
citation, and in the course OF
which he congratulated them for
the firm stand they have taken
to market the crop slowly. He
Is convinced that this action on
their part prevented the price of
cotton falling to 5 cents during
the month of October. At the
present time nearly all the crop
has been gathered, debts general
ly have been paid, and it is not
necessary for the farmers to sell
the balance of the crop now III
their hands. Mr. Jordan calls
their attention to the fact that the
ginners' report recently issued
from the United States Census
Bureau indicated that up to the
middle of October only 100000
bales of cotton had been ginned,
and that the total crop Will not
exceed 100000 bales, if 1t
reaches that figure, hence the
spinners can well afford to pay
the producers II cents a pound
for every bale of short staple
cotton made this year, and at the
same time do a profitable business
for the stockholders of the mi Is,
because the price of yarns has ad
vanced 3 cents a pound in the last
sixty days and an unprecedented
demand for cotton goods exists,
while the stocks are generally
lower than they have been for the
last twenty years. Therefore. Mr..
Jordan asserts that the duty of
the producers is plain and simple.
During the past two months they
have crowded the markets cOnges-
ting every facility for handling
cotton, and playing directly into
the hands of the bear spectators,
and spinners hence the thing to do
now is to give the markets and
shippers rest for two months
and allow present stocks of spot
cotton to be gotten out of the way.
This policy Will cause the spinners
to run Short of cotton and force
them into the market as active
buyers. 1t will also cause the
bear spectators to feel the lash
Of the bull operators when the
latter call for the delivery OF spot
cotton which the former will be
unable to deliver, therefore Mr..
JOrdan's advice to the producers
it: 'Let every holder of cotton alb.
solutely stop selling, and sit down
quietly at home and contemplate
results. Let each holder deter
mine to put no more cotton on the
market until prices advance, and
never sell bale on a depressed |
market."-N. O. States, Nov. g.
