WOULD INCREASE THE DEMAND

In the South, where cotton is so
universally grown, and where the
people are now suffering from sup
posed over production, there ought
to be concerted effort made to in
duce the more general use of cotton
fabrics. If a general sentiment
could be aroused in favor of using
cotton materials wherever cotton
can be reasonably substituted for
other materials, the consumption
of cotton would be materially in
creased and the over production of
which we now hear so much talk
would speedily become thing of
the past.
Attention has been called to the
fact that much could be done along
this line should Southern people
insist upon cotton wrappings for
many things for which jute and
hemp are now used, bags for flour,
rice, sugar, salt, etc., while even
cotton ought to be universally put
up in bagging made of that ma
terial.
In the composition of carpets,
wall coverings and many articles
of cheap clothing in which shOddy
is now employed, cotton could be
used to advantage, and the con-
sumers Of these things in the South
ought to insist that it be done,
while new inventions have made
it possible to use cotton in the
manufacture of many fancy arti-
cles of dress goods and wearing
apparel. If manufacturers of these
lines of goods fail to respond to the
demand of Southern consumers for
the more general use of cotton in
such goods, then capitalists in the
South ought to establish factories
in this section with that exclusive
purpose in view.
This would serve the double pur-
pose of greatly increasing the con-
sumption of cotton and at the same
time it would inaugurate new man
ufacturing industries in the South,
from which great profits would re.
suit to the investors.

ELKS TAKE new TURN.
Will Give Professional Vaudeville
Show for Annual Benefit.

The annual benefit of the Topeka
lodge of Elks, which takes place in
the Auditorium the week of Novem-
Der p, is going to be something diff
ferent from anything ever before I'M
dertaken in Topeka. A committee OF
Elks was appointed to take the matter
of the annual benefit in charge. The
committee is composed of Jas. L. King,
W. II. Davis, Chas. K. Holiday, John
B. Marshall ]. W. F. Hughes, c. E.
Jewell, L. E. Guild and r. S. Brigham.
Heretofore the Ell1s' entertainments
have been confined to amateur affairs
in which only local talent appeared,
but this year it will be an entirely pro-
fessiOnal vaudeville show. This will
present the first opportunity that To-
peka people have had to see real high
class vaudeville, the class of features
that play the famous vaudeville thea
tiers in the large cities of the east. It
would probably not have been posi-
bic for any other organization than
the Elks to have gotten together the
talent that will be presented.
The Elks order had its origin
among the actors of New York city,
fifty years ago, and its membership
was for years confined TO mem bers of
the theatrical profession.
It is only of comparatively recent
date that people outside of the pro-
fession have been admitted and the
Elks order is still the great theatrical
order of the world and, in fact, a
large proportion of the actors that
will appear are members of the order.
The fact that the show is being given
by the Elks exerted a great influence
in inducing the actors 10 come west
and take part. Under other circum-
stances it would have been practically
impossible to secure the high class
features that win be in evidence. The
confidence that felt by the committee
in charge, in the high class of talent
secured, has influenced them to make
the low admission price of twenty-five
cents, the committee feeling that the
large seating capacity or the Auditor
ium would justify the low price.
The features will be above all, good.
clean amusements. There'T be a So
prano of national reputation, novelty
musical acts, comedy musical acts.
character changes, Dutch, Irish and
black-face comedy, trick house com
edy, trained animal acts, etc. In fact
a variety of acts that will admit of
pleasing all tastes-the class of vaude-
vile acts that are presented at the
big theaters in the large cities at much
higher prices.
