amounted to 34I596 100 pounds, valued at S29, $40
SIS. OF the September shipments for 1904, Great
Britain took 222 27S637 pounds as against 57,9O5,
779 pounds in'September 1908.
Only one conclusion can be drawn from these
statistics namely that the foreign cotton spinncrs
especially those of Great Britain-are apparently
convinced that the cotton crop of this country for the
present season win not reach any such proportions
as some sanguine prophets have predicted that it
would, and accordingly they are taking time by the
forelock by providing themselves with ample sup.
plies of that staple says the New York CONNER.
cal They plainly look for little fall in the price
Of raw cotton in the immediate future, and, like
manufacturers of practical sense and acumen, they
are accommodating themselves to conditions as they
actually exist.
Their action in thus making haste to provide
themselves with adequate stock of American cot.
ton bears out the recent estimates of the Commercial
to the effect that the new cotton crop win probably
not exceed 10960000 bales, instead Of its reaching
100000 or more bales, as was confidently predict.
ed in some quarters earlier in the season. These
British continental spnners have been particularly
close students of cotton conditions in the United
States for the last few months and, if they pos
sessed any grave doubts as to the more optimistic
view of the size of the new American cotton crop,
they would hardly be so precipitate in their pur-
chases of that staple as they now are.
What effect this heavy volume of exports of raw
cotton will have upon American spinners, especially
those of New England, remains to be seen. Most
of the New England cotton mills are running on
part time or are still idle-chiey in consequence of
labor troubles growing out of an attempt to reduce
wages-and the owners and managers appear to be
little inclined to stock up with raw cotton at the
ruling price 1t would seem, however, as if these
recent large shipments of cotton to foreign spnners
might put an entirely new phase ON the matter

ABSOLUTELY IMPARTIAL

The accusation of valley papers that the Asso-
ciaed Press is supporting the republican candidates
this fall is absolutely without truth. The Astoran
daily receives full reports of political progress in
all parts of the country, and they are as utterly
unbiased they possibly could be. The Associated
Press exercises the greatest care to refrain from ex
preston of opinion 1t is distinctly news-gather-
ing institution, and as such, supplying service to
papers of every political fath it could not favor the
candidacy of either Mr.. Roosevelt or Judge Parker
and fulfill its mission 1t records events and trans
mits the statements of speakers treating republicans
and democrats alike with absolute fairness Nor is it
fair of the valley papers to charge the 0regonian
with publication of one-sded news matter The Ore
Portland contemporary has very frankly stated both
sides of the question in its news columns The
quotations from eastern journals which are repro
duced in the Oregonian may at times strike us as in
consistent and full of prejudice but the Oregonian
not responsible for this 1t pays out considerable
sums for eegraphic tolls to print the statements Of
democratic and republican organs, and ought to be
commended for its enterprise, instead of unjustly
censured The political faith of men carry them too
far and we have an idea such enthusiasts have
scored the Associated Press and the Oregonan We
have heard no complaint because of the publication
of political news in The Astorian which depends en-
trely upon the Associated Press and we know there
is no occasion for complaint.

EXPORTS OF COTTON.

The exports of raw cotton from the United States

breaker. In no September in the history of this
country have these exports either in the matter of

amounted to 1894 pounds valued at $43, ,742,-
