COTTON PRICES.

Cotton futures were panl(
stricken by the United States De
partment cotton report of Deem
Der /, suggesting acrop of nearly
ID million bales. There were nc
sales of real cotton (spots) fol-
several days after the report was
received. The bulls were borne
down and completely routed by
the bears so that had cotton been
sold loss of so per bale might
have been suffered. The bulls
did not fight in the face of the
bearish report, but let prices slide
down to about Z 1-2 and s cents.
1t is now time for a bull campaign
and the situation will lose none of
its interest during the next sixty
days.
We are convinced the Govern
ment report went wrong. Just
where we cannot say, because at
this writing no estimate of yield
by states has been given out. The
report admits, however, that the
Department figures as to spring
acreage, were wrong by more than
5 per cent; equivalent, probably,
to half million bales of cotton.
This heavy acreage error has
served the bears good turn in
hammering down prices during
the past summer and early fall
season as the cotton growers have
good reason to remember. 1t is
not absurd to say that in the re-
cent estimate based on ginners'
reports, and town correspondents.
who interests are covered up,
there is probably another error of
a half million or more bales. No
bumper crop of cotton has ever
been picked out in this country
before the middle of January.
Certainly the Texas crop is not
mammoth yield. The cotton in
farmers hands has been systemati-
cally and grossly exaggerated by
town press correspondents and the
Government appears to have been
worked upon if not "worked" by
the determined spinner interests.
There is a strong movement afoot
in this southwestern region among
ginners to hold a meeting and
show that the ginners' reports
have been misued and to give the
actual bales of cotton ginned. j.
A. Taylor of Wynnewood, l. T.,
a ginner whose interests cover
Oklahoma aud North Texas, is
travelling and working actively in
this interest. If the Government |
estimate of nearly 10 million bales
were correct the fact would have
been evident 60 days ago, and
cotton prices would have lost $40 |
per bale on 6 million bales sold |
in that period. We should be
thankful for the retarded move
ment of the crop or that the truth
was not told earlier-if the report
contains the real facts. The buy
ers did not suspect it, the farmers
knew better and only the specula-
tors now seem convinced. We
will await the Census Bureaus
report of December 10, with much
interest.-Farm and Ranch.

The lecture given by DR.. H. If.
Wharton, of Philadelphia, at the
Baptist church Saturday morning was
very largely attended and was great
ly enjoyed.
The meeting was opened with a
prayer by the pastor Of the church,
Rev. l.. B. Warren, after which sew.
eral hymns were sung led by the
choir who have Ueen singing during
the meetings for the past two weeks.
The subject of Dr.. Wharton's ad-
dress was, "A Trip Through Pales-
tine" and in beautiful and simple
language he told of the trip with a
party of thirty friends from New York
City TO Gibraltar, Italy, Greece Egypt
through the valley Of the Nile and on
to the Holy land. His description of
all the interesting places aud sights
in Palestine We're beautifully wOTded
aud were Interspersed with scriptural
quotations, making the days of Christ
on earth and the wonderful miracles
performed by hun very real indeed.
For an hour DR.. Wharton spoke
and held the inteusest interest of his
congregation throughout his address,.

taken u 10y Misses Matte Williams,
Anna Nixon, Louise Scott ana Alice

duties of ushers. The collection was
a large one and was turned over to

speakers were Messrs. Bittinger, earn,
G. G. Mathews, Smoak, Galloway,

made the speech of the evening and
it was well received. Mr.. Pulliam,

cinct, announced himself as such in a
few short remarks. The people here

Another text that a good sermon
could be preached from is the follow
ing: Lots of men and women who
undertake to carry the world on their
backs do not take care of their own
families" Suppose everybody should
undertake to do that. Suppose that
everybody should apply himself to
keeping his own household in order.
Suppose from every household should
issue the incense Of innocence. Sup.
pose that around each home sweet
flowers were blooming, would not soon
the whole earth be filled with their
fragrance and enriched with their
beauty? Suppose that every man
should bride his own tongue, would
there be any SANDER? Suppose every
man should sweep around his own
door step, how eileen the earth would
soon appear.

The good citizens of McIntOst in
vited the county candidates to be with
them at a basket dinner yesterday and
they responded in full force.
About one hundred persons had
gathered at the city park and to this
the searchers for votes were directed
upon their arrival from Fairfield and
Reddick.
Mr.. s. H. Gaitskill acted as master
of ceremonies and the manner in
which he conducted the affair showed
him to be a presiding officer of ex-
perience and worth.
Mr.. Carlos Sistrunk, the youngest OF
the crowd of office seekers, was accor-
ded the honor of leading off with a
speech, and he did himself proud,
winning new lsurels to place with the
large bouquet which he has already
accumulated in the campaign. He
was followed by Messrs Wartmann,
Mathews aud Floyd, all of whom
seemed bent upon putting his best
foot forward to win the favor of Nc.
IntOsh's voters. AL made strong
speeches on the issues already spoken
of in these columns and were loudly
spplauded.
All the voters of this precinct are
busy with their vegetable shipments
and the crowd represented at the pic
ME grounds was conspicuous for the
absence of these important factors in
a political campaign.
The other candidates we understand
all had their say during the afternoon.
Everybody present seemed to enjoy
the meeting and each candidate is
certain that he is stronger in the pre-
cinct today than before he went there.
The good ladies of the community
furnished an excellent dinner which
all enjoyed to the fullest extent. The
ladies of one of the churches sold ice
cream and lemonade on the grounds
and we understand cleared quite a
handsome amount.

CROP WILL BE GOOD.
Geo X. Robinson Says Acreage in
Marion County Will be Strong.

Among the prominent visitors to
this city Thursday was Hon. George
X. Robinson of Ocala, who was here
on a visit to his brother, Hon. Walter
@. Robinson.
Mr.. Robinson has been located in
Ocala for many years, where re is re-
gardpd a. a first-class, conservative
business man. During the greater
part of this time he has been engaged
in buying cotton, and next to his
brother, is probably the best posted
man Oh the long staple cotton industry
in the state.
81 believe the acreage will be heav-
Ter in Marion county zthis year than
last remarked Mr.. Robinson, in
speaking of the condition of the ')p
and the acreage planted. Il say lis
because We are selling a great many
more seed. The planters have become
encouraged by the good prices which
prevailed last year, and they are 60
ing into ctOton planting heavy"
In speaking of the condition of the
crop, Mr.. Robinson stated that it
would be good from present indica-
tons. The weather has been tOlerably
favorable, and great deal of the crop
is already up. he states that the
farmers of Marion county as a rule
have enjoyed good crops, and the ma
majority of them are in a pleased and
contented mood. Sun.

THE JAYS TOO STRONG.
ocsIa Not Vet Able to Cope with SO
Heavy Team.

Heaty Team.
From Sundays Daily.
The Ocala baseball team again went
down in defeat before the superior
strength of King Kelly's South At
! lantic League team at the Driving
J Park diamond yesterday afternoon.
However much the home team regret
, ted the defeat they have the consola-
ton that this contest did not result
in shut-out. They managed to send
three men around the diamond in the
sixth inning.
OF course the game was one sided.
The score was Il to 8, but the few
spectators who went out 10 encourage
the boys with their presence seemed
to thoroughly enjoy the sport. On
account of the high winds it was very
difficult to Judge the flies accurately,
but the work of the outfield of both
teams was good.
Rec, who played third base for the
home team, was exceptionally good.
He ran out into the crowd sever
al times and secured the applause Of
all present by taking in hard fouls.
Anderson also made a pretty one
handed catch of long drive 10 cen
tel field. All the men-of the home
teams infield had errors charged to
them.
The Jayt hit the ball often and haId,
making fourteen hits in all. They
ran bases we'll and played the game
for all there was in it. We wish them
well IN the league season which opens
this week.
In the first inning Ford hit to third
ana made first base. VOgt was out on
fly to left field. Tison hit to third
and reached first, but Ford was forced
out at second. Reed retired the side
on a pop-up foul to the catcher. The
first three men up for the Jays should
have been retired but for errors of
infield. Four men crossed the plate
for them in this inning.
Ocala went OFT in the second in
ming with only one man having
reached first base. The Jays added
three runs to their score. Both sides
were turned down without run in
the third inning. The Jays got wO
more tallies in the fourth inning on
three hits and a long fly to center.
They continued their aggressive
tactics by making three more runs in
the fifth.
Ocala was determined not to be
shut out. In the sixth inning Ford
was out on foul. VOgt hit a liner
over secord base. TisOn followed
with a safe one over short stop. Reed
put one out in left field. Anderson
also made a safe hit. When the
inning was over VOgt, TisOn and
Reed had been around the diamond
safely, thereby saving Ocala from
shut out. Jacksonville made four in
the sixth inning and one more in the
seventh.
