1t is further alleged that the act pro-
vides that each delegate to a nominating
convention must, fifteen days before the
day of election, deposit with the supervis-

being explained that there could be no

Stand by the Watts Law.

To the Editor:--Why? Because it is
a good law. 1t is the best temperance
law the State ever had. II has done
untold good Before the passage OF
this law. in hundreds of places whiskey
distillerieS and grog shops were doing
their deadly work. Good people lived
in dread every day. expecting crimes
to be committed by drunken men.
Families were afraid to lie down in
their own homes at night to sleep.
not knowing at what hour they might
be broken in upon by men crazed and
made demons by whiskey Now all
is changed. The distilleries and bar
rooms are gone; and peace and order
and prosperity gladdens every heart.
and light up every face with smiles
The honest toiler lies down and sleeps
sWeetly at night without fear of mo-
lestation.
The people-a vast majority of the
best people like the Watts law. They
want it to stand They are glad the
distilleries and grog shops are gone.
They do not want them. They have
seen their ruinous work.
The great mass of the best people
would not give fig to vote on the
removal of whiskey if they can get rid
Of it without voting. They are sem
sible. If their communities and yards
were infested with tigers and rattle
snakes. would they clamOr for an
election to be ordered so they could
vote on the removal of these threaten
ing evils? No! They would rejoice
in any law the legislature might pass
to rid them of such danger. Distil-
leries and bar rooms are worse than
tigers and rattle snakes. and the DeO-
pie are glad that the Watts law has
taken them away
The main opposition to the Watts
law arises from two sources. First,
from those who want TO make, sell.
and drink whiskey. OF course they
oppose it, because it restraints them in
the evil work they want to do.
Secondly. whiskey politicians oppose
the law They are hungry for office.
Their only hope To get it. is to secure
the Whiskey vote. To do this they
oppose the Watts law. During the
campaign they promised their const-
tuents that if elected they would work
for the repeal of the law. Now they
are in the LEGISLATURE. they must make
good their promise. and so. whether
sincerely or pretendedly. they will
make efforts to abolish the law.
The Watts law was the main issue
in the last state campaign. 1t was the
storm center around Which a gYeat
conflict ragged. God and II vast major
ity of the people stood for the law
and it was sustained Let it stand!

COTTON CLOSES

LITTLE COTTON SEEN

(By the Associated Press

New York, Jan. 11.-Without show
ing special activity the cotton market
recovered much of yesterdays losses
closing steady at the best point of the
day chiefly as a result of reports tina,
spot interests were still short of Jan
uary shipments and were finding
trouble to cover their commitments
in view of the continued indifference
of the Southern holder and the Smal II
amounts of spot cotton offering.
The opening was steady at UNI
changed to an advance of points on
moderate coverings stimulated by the
large spot business reported from Liv-
erpool quotations there quite fully re-
sponded to the American losses of the
previous day. At first it looked as
though yesterdays big sellers were
still opposed to the market and prices
shortly after the call worked off a
point or two but were soon rallied and
the market during the balance of the
session, while more or less irregular.
showed gradually increasing firmnesS
with the close steady at net advance
of 3 a IA points. Sales futures were
estimated at about $4,000 bales.
While private advices yesterday and
some received early during today's
session reported easier Interior SPOT
markets, these reports We're not con-
tirmd. while on the other hand the
majority Of the kilograms received
later in the day stated that but very
little cotton was offered, proof of the
determination of the Southern owner
to hoard his supplies for higher
prices. was also afforded by the days

reached only about 1900 bales.
against some 10000 bales last year.
New Orleans and the South seemed to
be selling here in the early session as
did also certain large spot interests
but the South was credited with buy
ing later in the session, a local spot
house also bought toward the close.
while some of the big sellers at the
high level of two or three days ago
were covering. Port receipts for the
day ran about 1000 bales over last
year, but promise to be lighter tomor-
row.

INCREASE IN SALARIES
The Legislature Warned to Go Very
Slow by Greene County
Farmers.

TO the Editor:--I see much in the
different papers about the poor sala-
ricS the State officers are getting. &c.
Now / would like to know if those
officers did not know just what sala-
ries they We're going to get when they
were working SO hard for the nomina-
ton and election, and if they were
not satisfied with the pay why did
they accept the office. Nobody forced
it upon them. Common sense teaches
me if a man is getting more out of
an office than he does in the office
he is not going to work so hard to
get it. How many farmers do you
suppose know what he will get this
year from his crop, whether he will
get one cent or be able to meet eX-
penSes if he knew as the officers do
he would know how to make calcula-
tons, but he must shoot and always
in the dark With hopes that he will
hit the object as he we'll knows the
whole world is dependent upon him
and | tell YOU the burden he has to
carry is not light. but its great weight
mas made him like the camel-humped
backed. | hope our laW-makers will
go slow. yes very slow III increasing
the expenses of the State as our taxes
are getting higher every year with no
increase in prices of the product of
the farm
