urer Peter Silman, who were on
Petty's bond, asked to be re-

Grant Hall claims that owing to
Postmaster Petty's intense political
feeling against him he was afraid to

him and sent it through country
post offices.
Verify, Postmasters must not be
too active in things political.

INCREASED COTTON ACREAGE.

Texas Oklahoma, the Indian Ter.
ritory and other places are planning
an increased cotton acreage for 1904.
The coUntry's aggregate in recent
years has been a little in excess OF
27.00O,0OO acres, and the crop has
ranged from auout 100000 to H.
100000 bales II the government es.
innate q the crop Of 1903 made a
few months ago, was anywhere near
correct. there is room for a consid-
erahle increase in acreage in 1904
According TO u4at computation the
yield was a little less than 10000
oOO bales, which would make the
yield smaller than in any previous
year since 1896. except in 1889.
The recent high prices show that
there is goca profit in cotton rails
ing, and tnat a much larger crop than
that Of 1903 could ue disposed Of in
the next year az rates that would give
the producer a very fair margin OF
gain Tac war viii have comparative

may take place IN the Chinese demand
on account OF the war is likely 20 be
more than made up by the increased
takings OF the raw material by Euro
pean mills Moreover, Just as soon
az the war ENDS, the demand from Chi
ma as wei az from Japan will be sure
20 grow In fact, there is chance
that the japanese demand will in.
crease Oh account OF the war.
speculators are telling planters to
keep their acreage within the recent
mark, and some Of them are urging
n curtailment Of the acreage. The
present range OF prices may not be
maintained for the next twelve months
but the chances are that the level will
be az a line which was undreamed of
year or two ago The gamblers may.

MoETuARY STATEMENT.
Number Of Deaths ano Causes for the
Past Year in Ardmore.

Under the direction of the United
States marine and hospital corps, City
Physician j. w. Moffett has compiled
a mortanty statement of the city for
the year 1903. The following list is
complete record Of the deaths and
gives as nearly as possible the cause:
Pneumonia so, consumption Is. ty-
phoid fever 3, adults, cause unknown,
3; infants, cause unknown, 13; senil-
ity 10, accident 7, Bright's disease 8,
cholera infantum heart trouble 8.

rheumatism /, hemorrhage /, whoop-
ing cough /, appendicitis /, Puerperal
fever 2, murder l, suicide /, died fol-
lowing operation ? liver trouble 3,
membranols crop !.
This gives a total Of III deaths from
a population Of 1000. Deducting
from the III the cases that have

recover and the fatal cases of sick
ness among the Mississippi Choctaws
who were qdartered here awaiting an
opportunity to take their allotments
gives Ardmore a remarkable healthy
