Dnte Lnet Neaf.s
 Washington, Sept 15.-The cotton report of the census bureau issued to- day shows a total of 390,414 commer- cial bales pressed at the. ginneries, ginned from the growth of 1904 prior to September 1. against a total of IF, S57 commercial bales in the corre- spending period of last year.
 The report shows 7567 ginneries operated this season prior to Septem- Der 1. while the number operated to the corresponding date in 1903 was 2,176. The report points out that in comparing the statictics of the two years due allowance must be made for different conditions of the two sea- sons. The total commercial bales which would number but 374,S21 If the round bales were counted as half bales, comprise S5S.796 square bales, 31,1S7 round bales and 431 Sea Island crop bales.
 The crop by State and Territories follows:
 Alabama, 2s.456 commercial bales, total corresponding period last year 1914; Arkansas 7s-17: Florida 1,956-- 5S2: Georgia 63,193-6,2S3; Indian Ter ritory 1,O55-4; Louisiana 5,57o-44s; Mississippi 2.703-3S4; North Carolina 134-35; Oklahoma 43-0; South Caro- lina 4.215-264; Tennessee 2-1; re xas 2S5, ,011-6,761.
 No figures are given for Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri and Virginia.
 These statistics wera collected through a canvass of the individual ginneries of the cotton States by 667 special agents. The report will be fol- lowed by five others showings the quantity of cotton ginned from the growth of 1904 to October IS, to No- vember 14. to December I3, to Jan uary Is. and to the end of the season.
 The final report will give the quan- tity of cotton ginned during the entire season and will include also the quan- tity Of lnters obtained by the cotton seed oil mills from reginning cotton seed of this years growth.

association acts altogether without
state sanction or authority. There is
little evidence that Vermont cares to
be represented at st. Louis in this
way. The last legislature, fresh from
the people. and supposedly rejecting
their views, sat down on the PROPOSE
ton. II private individuals assume
that this was mistake and proceed to
construct a building at their own ex-
pense, while their generosity and pub
lie spirit may be eOmmendable, what
right have they TO call it state build
ing and TO solicit funds for it as such
1t is altogether unlikely, were Yer
mont to be formally represented in
this way, that the Constitution House
would serve as the model. The lead
ing argument against the building
proposition in 1902 was that Vermont
could not afford the outlay necessary
for a creditable structure, which would
cost from S1j, 900 TO S25, 900, and that
it would be better not to undertake it
at all than to make a failure of it by
appropriating a smaller amount. Now
comes the proposition to do just this
thing, and to bring Vermont into ridi-
cule without leave or license. The
state stood for the Pompeiian villa
at Chicago-because it had to-but it
will not enjoy being held responsible
for some private individuals ideas of
the aesthetic and appropriate at st.
Louis, acting without the least author
ity. There viii be no Vermont state
building at ST. Louis, and anything
to be such will be a coun-
terfeit and sham.

WHOSE FAULT is IT7

Mr.. EDITOR In your Issue of july
%, 1908, appeared an article on taxa.
ton, and one OF the questions asked
was, "Whose fanlt is itPn which In
duced us to write a series of articles
discussing the question in its different
phases, and showing the evils to be
overcome.
The primary fault was with that
Legislature which enacted the listing
law which violated the constitution.
Every man amongst them knew, if he
had come to the years of understand
ing, and had any sense of right and
Justice in his heart, that our listing
laws regarding real estate were such
that the shackes Of slavery were
firmly riveted on the mortgaged home
maker, in the interest OF the money
power. To that legislature be the
odium and disgrace, which is stencil
in the nostrils of every man that has
the knowledge of the difference be
tween right and wrong.
More than hall a century elapsed,
and the increasing results of its in
EQUITY could be seen throughout the
farming portion of the state deserted
homes and the decrease in population.
The generation that enacted that law
is gone and forgotten, but the great
evil that they accomplished still exists,
after their personal identity is forever
obliterated. Other legislatures fol-
lowed and, judged by their neglecting
to right the wrong, we will call them
weak. There were strong men men
tally in each OF them; but Judging
them by their works, as YOU would
judge the strength of chain by its
weakest link, you would at least allow
they were a weak lot
But come down to the historic ses-
sion of 1900 when the tax question was
presented as never before, and that
body of men utterly failed to give re-
liet, and to all intents and purposes
practically ignored it. And in answer
to the question, "Whose fault is it
that the listing laws were not
changed ~ we answer boldly, the ses-
sion OF 1900. The majority of its
members without doubt were men both
good and true, but the leaders, the pot
house politicians, the money changers,
and the men versed in law-men who
could have drafted law which would
have given relief-they are the men
who on this occasion hid their light
under a bushel; men who had iulu- .
ence enough to have succeeded in
enacting any just and proper legisla- 1
ton. The indications are that they 4
We're scheming tor future promotion
to office; that mentally they may be
qualified to fill, but morally, in rela-
ton to true craftsmanship, they are

solely their own elevation that DOM
mates their every move on the politi- 4
cal chess board. Those men have
been weighed in the balance and been
found wanting. When, through in
-rigue and political Vaccination and
at the instigation of the political ring, /.
any one OF them are proposed for
some high office within the GIFT of the
people, the thousands that sought re-
lief at their hands from unjust taxa
ion and were denied, will say, Il n
never knew you" Then there shall be
political wailing and crashing OF teeth.
