Speaking to a gentleman who
is an authority on cotton matters,
we learn that the best cotton last
season reached as high as Is cents
and the price next season would
not go below 8 10 to 10 cents de-
spite the large incre ased acreage
from all sections of the South.
Even at that price the cultivation
OF the staple will prove profitable
to planters.

The New Orleans States very
wisely suggests that instead of any
further State vagrancy laws, the
vagrant evil be referred to the po-
lice iuries to be dealt with accor-
ding to conditions existing in each
parish. The suggestion strikes
us as wise one and ought to be
needed by the Legislature.

WOODS
URGES HARMONY
SAYS HE WILL WORK FOR GOOD
OF PARTY WHATEVER OUTCOME
OF COMPREHENSIVE MAY BE

Senator Palmer Z. Woods arrived by
| the steamer kinau today from Hawaii
for the purpose of attending the special
session of the Legislature. Senator
Woods is in the dark 50 far as any Of
fetal advices regarding his probable
appointment as Democratic National
Committeeman for Hawaii is concerned.
Il have received no official advices,"
said Senator Woods, regarding the re-
port of the Subcommittee of the Demo-
cratic National Committee recommend
ing that l be appointed National Com
mitteeman for Hawaii. 1 presume that
l know no more of the matter than has
appeared in the Honolulu papers. 1
was advised by friends in Honolulu,
who 'had been working in my interests
in the matter, that private advices
from the mainland were that the sub
committee to whom Chairman Jones
had referred the matter of the national
committeemanship for Hawaii, would
recommend that be appointed to the
vacancy caused by the death of the late
w. H. Cornwell No word of any ap-
pointment having been made has been
received however.
In view of the fact that there will be
territorial convention held in the ISL
ands to send a delegation to the Ma
tional Convention at ST. Louis which
meets July -, it would be better to
have a National Committeeman here
than to be deprived of one, but the main
consideration is that the party work
tremendously and that all chickering's
and squabling stop. Whatever be the
outcome of the National Committee
manship 1 shall work for the good of
the party, and l believe that all true
Democrats will do the same, 1 regard
the prospects for the party i'll Hawaii
as very bright now and all that is nee
essary for the success of our party is
for all factions to unite. Let there be
harmony for it is only by harmony that
we can hope to win. ,
las regards the matter of sending a
delegation to st. Louis can not at this
time speak. There is a strong senti-
ment in favor of sending the delegation
Instructed for Hearst, but some of the
party prefer that the delegation go I'M
instructed. I have not gotten in touch
with the situation, however, and can
not express any opinion regarding this
matter at this time. Events will, how
ever, so shape themselves as to enable
us to decide whether the delegation
should be instructed for Hearst"
