About one out every five newspapers
togo on the GRAPHIC list throws a fit
In discovering its motto: ''The Only
Strictly Moral Newspaper in South
Dakoto." The Beresford Republic
found it on the wrapper which carries
this strictly pure periodical to its
sanctum. 1t wa a discovery. If the
Republic will glance above the date
line on the GRAPHIC it will find the
inscription that has been there for
over twenty years-an appellation, by
the way, which was given the Ora
PHO In the first months of its exis-
tence and which it tries to wear
with becoming grace and consistency.

fBy Private Wire from Gtbert & ClayD
 NEW ORLEANS, August G.--Liverpool, seemingly satisfied that permanently hieh- CT prices are forthcoming, is slow to respond to the initiative taken by the American markets Their advance of today fell much short of requirements. Cables expressed the opinion that present prices discounted c Government condition figure of S1. but that their fluctuations would be sympathetic with ours As a result of the days trading, lop- lions gained 10 points and spots IS on sales of 5000 bales.
 Realizing by longs and the ease with which offerings were absorbed was fea- ture of our opening. prices being we'll sus- tained around the early lower levels and re- viving moderately when the heavier selling ceased. The range of fluctuations became narrower and the market less nervous and cratic than for several days. Later In the session some heavy selling was noticeabie and much lower prices were observed. The extent of August deterioration will be known on Friday, as fairly as the Government has been able tc collect the information, and opinions can then be formed regarding the efforts of the manipulative' interests to cre- ate apprehension as to the prospects of . good yield. Damage by weevl and worm in Texas must have been considerable but 1t is probable that the loss elsewhere from shedding and rust and ether ills has caused more uneasiness than merited and will not prevent excellent results. With the conIn- ued satisfactory trade conditions and an impending large movement reliance must be placed almost entirely in manipulation for maintenance of the presen. levels.

NEW YORK, August sl.--There was con- tinued activity and excitement in the cotts'n market, which ruled weak nearly all the session under heavy liquidation and South ern selling
 The opening was weak at a decline of B616 points Tn response to cables that were considered little disappointing The weather also was good and prominent wire house. issued Q crop report showing de tericration for the month of only about 7ls per cent, while many in the trade had been expecting . Government report on Friday of under 80 per cent. This report encour- aged active Southern selling and while at first there was an excellent demand rom local pr0ft ssonals, the market gradually yielded. Fluctuations were very irregular during the morning and the market after It's initial break frequently rallied to about or little over the opening figures, par ticulariy just after the disappointing estt- mate for tomorrow's receipts at Houston was posted, showing only about 5,2o0 to D. roo bales expected.
 In the afternoon, however, the demand seemed to be smaller and continued sell ing by the South, scattered longs and New Orleans drove the market down to a net loss of about 70 points on the active months. Jus. before the close room shorts cover ing rallied the market few points and th@ official tone was steady at a net de- cline of 30 to 36 points, Sales were esti- mated at e00.000 bales.

After the call prices advanced again on cover ing by belated shorts. but on the rise re- newed selling for profits. coupled with some selling for the short account, carried prices back to below the opening figures Shorts appeared timid about extending their short lines too freely, being afraid of the Govern- ment monthly report Friday. wbich is gen. eraiiy expected to make an Vnfavorable looked for. The weekly report yesterday confirms the report that cotton has de- teriorated badly during the past few weeks and uniess1h weather remains favorable will result in a great reduction in the size of the new crop: The Norden estimate of the condition of cotton Is 75.72, against their figurcs of s4.57 last month and "A .7s last year. and their estimate of crop yield of 11.600.000 bales. with average conditions from now on. an average frost condition coupled with the estimate of Miss Giles of condition of 70 per cent, a decline of II per cent for the month. prevented any aggressive short selling.
