The Dodson Pillow Company,
which concern has removed from a
Tennessee city and will in the flu

having work on its plant rushed,
and it is now nearing completion.

Damage to Crops.

There is no question of doubt that
the Mississippi cotton crop has SUI
fered heavy damage since the loIier
part of August and much speeula-
ton is being INDUCED in as to the
percentage Of shortage that Will be
shown when the crop is harvested.
The damage to the crop IS oil
course in spots, but these spots cover
wide areas. For instance, in ClaI-
borne county the reports state that
the crop is almost total failure and
similar reports come from portions
of Holmes and several points in the
delta, especially Bolivar, Washing
ton, Sunhower and TaIlahatchle
counties.
The farmers in Leakc county are
firmly convinced that the insect
which has wrought such havoc IN
that section is the much dreaded
Mexican boil weevil, notwithstand-
ing the fact that they have received
no confirmation to this effect from
the State cntomologist. The insect,
regardless of its species. has almost
totally destroyed the crop.
Three or four weeks ago it was
believed that Mississippi would raise
an average crop, but now this view
is not entertained in any quarter
and many close observers OF crop
conditions believe that the State will
be fortunate if the total yield
reaches 100000 bales.

Monroe Wants Coed Roads,

Monroe county is the latest coun-
tv to adopt the contract system for
working its public roads. The board
of supervisors has levied a tax of
one mill and a communication tax of
So on each male subject to road
duty. 1t is believed that this will
be sufficient to work all the roads
by contract.

Wants a Pardon.

The governor has been petitloned
to grant pardon to j. f. Campbell
a white convict from Carroll county,
who was sent up two years ago to
serve a Fife term in the penitentiary
for murder The appeal for elem
oncv is based chiefly on the fact that
the chief witness for the State at
the trial of Campbell was a nine
year-old boy, who told a very con-
hicting story of the tragedy.

The Case as 1t Stands

These are good days for young
Utah to be thinking over matters
pertaining to their creed and their
chiefs. When they read that petit
tons have been sent to the Senate
of the United States from every
state and territory in this Union,
asking that one of their apostles be
denied seat in the Senate of the
United States, they surely cannot
be proud of the fact.
When they read the quibbling
defense of their apostle, and know
as they all must realize how hui
initiating a deception it is intended
to be, it will require great rever-
ence on their part, to force back
their natural disgust at such a
spectacle.
Some of them will remember,
that it is only a little while ago
since Utah was admitted into the
Union. they will remember how
cordial was the reception, and il
they will but use their reasoning
power, they will have to admit that
the revulsion must have had a
cause, and that the cause is the
broken faith of their chiefs
They ought after while to begin
to ask why it is necessary for their
church, and through their church
the Mormon people have to, at
short intervals, be made the re,
proach Of the country. 1t comes
solely through the lust for politiclt
power, which has been the bane o
the system from the very beginn
ing. Every Mormon knows thaf
the system includes Temporal
Government; that the purpose is tc
carry on the Government, within
the Government of the United
States, gaining in influence anc
power, wherever possible, and al
the time in secret antagonism t
free republican institutions. Thi
truth is made more and more clear
with every renewal of the excite
ment, and if persisted in, will re
suit in the Acknowledgement O
every man belonging to the organ
ization.
The men in the creed shout,
keep in mind that in every clasl
with the Government the churcI
suffers. 1t has never yet game,
one point, every attempt has resulte
in humiliation and loss and il
creased distrust of the whole syster
by the people.

FIGURES ON DIVORCE.
Census Shows Five Ont of 1000 Men
Married Are Now Living Single.

Census Shows Five Gut or 1,OOo Nen
Married Are Now Living Single.
Divorces in the United States are on
the increase in number, according to tg-
ures presented by the census bureau. The
latest show that FIVE out Of every 1000
men married are living in state OF
divorce.
The census returns disprove the the
DRY that early marriage leads oftenest to
divorce. A note of warning is also
sounded to women who persist in marry
ing men of the rowing class, who enter
on matrimony late in life, and, for the
guidance of those who ought to know, 1t
is figured out in cold and passiOnless sta
tistics of just what classes Of employ
ment men are most frequently seen in
the divorce courts.
Tickle above all men in their marriage
relations are soldiers, sailors and ma
rines Twenty-four Of them out of every
them in Inconsistency are hostlers. Then
follow actors and professional showmen.
On further analy sis the census bureau
found that most Of the occupations given
contain high percentage of bachelors
Statistics show that in nine of the fifteen
occupations in this list the tendency to
defer marriage is exceptionally strong.
1t is shown that in long list of occu-
pations groups In which there are not
more than three divorces to 1000 mar
riages, the tendency is toward early mat
rimony.
1t is shown that the number Of mar
ried women in gainful occupations is
steadily growing. In 1890 40 per cent
Of all the married women of the country
were thus employed. In 1900 this per-
centage had increased to SO. 1t is also
shown that the percentage of single
women in gainful occupations has de-
clned since 1890, while that of married,
widowed and divorced, in each case,
has iDoreasa6
