LETTERS TO EDITOR.
Reduced Acreage in coosa.

To the Editor of The Age Herald:
| have noticed for some two or three
weeks different articles appearing in
YOUR paper, and in the leading papers of
the state, which have tendency to put
the cotton acreage at the same as for
last year. and in some instances l have
noticed some are claiming that it will
be more, also the use of commercial fer
tilizers to be more than last season; now
as to the reliability of these reports, and
the manner in which this data is collected
am not prepared to discuss, but I can
only speak for this immediate commu-
atty, and the county at large. and l know
from the best information at hand. there
will be nothing like the cotton planted
in this tCoosa) county there was last
year. There will be at least reduction
of % per cent in acreage, and as to the
sale of fertilizers, l believe every mer-
chant doing business in the county and
handling fertilizers will bear me out in
the statement that there has not been
sold, and will not be sold this season 50
per cent of the amount there was sold
Ia st season.
The very best farmers in the county
have reduced their cotton acreage. and
nave or Will plant more feed stuffs. They
say they willing to make less cot
ton, and take a better price, and if this
county can voice the sentiments of the
entire state tho cotton crop of Alabama
will be planted on much less soil than
the one for 1904, and too, when our
state auditor has made out his final re-
port OF the sales of fertilizers. it will
show a considerable decrease | feel sure
these will be the results and If this should
be the case over the entire SOUTH we can
expe ct the cotton crop of 1905 to fall far
short OF the one just being wound up at
reduced price.
Yours very truly,
2. D. MCORD.

criticism Of the DELTA INDEPEN-

four, as the law provides. The

The federal grand jury at Kan
sas City last week found fourteen
indictments against railway Off
cials, freight agents and common
carriers for the giving of rebates.
These indictments mean that a
railway company has no right to
haul freight at one price for all
and have favorites or firms in
which they are interested, to
whom they give big rebates. In
this manner a railway company
could stifie opposition firms and
in many instances practically
stamp out all competition.

The supreme court of Illinois

lower court which means that
Johann Hoch must hang. Per-
haps the strangest thing in this

have murdered many wives, is
the way in which the woman
whom he now claims as his wife,
clings to him. Hoch may have

A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION.
tMontrose Press.)

(Montrose Press.)
The Hotchkiss Times is stirring
up a hornets nest. It says that
next year an issue should be made
in Delta county Of the PROPOSE
ton to elect legislators who will
present and bring to passage q
bill to take off the Maher country
from Montrose and Somerset
from Gunnison county and attach
them to Delta. We realize that
this should have been done in the
first instance, but when the land
up there was Of no value Delta
did not care to own it. Now
when they are valuable she pro-
poses to take them without Offer
ing anything in return. It is in
convenient for Maher ranchmen
TO come to Montrose to pay their
taxes, but they like to come over
here pretty well to see their
country cousins and we are just
as glad when we can shake their
honest hands. The same argu-
ment the Times advances il
equally applicable to Montrose.
Ouray takes a fine bunch Of land
that is contiguous and directly
tributary to Montrose, but she
had it by virtue Of prior locatior
long before this county was ever
thought Of and she will likely
keep it for a half century or se
yet. Might as well we say that
Ouray must surrender everything
north of Ridgeway because the
people Of that section woult
rather come to Montrose to pay
taxes than go to Ouray. But w
of Montrose are not hogs = we
simply want a small slice Of thi'
worlds good things. Ouray cal
keep the territory that cuts ,
jagged gap in Montrose, wei
hang on to Maher and Gunnisol
can reap the reward Of possessing
the greatest coal camp on earth

A lengthy article by Helen Old
field on the Home Page" of a
recent number Of the Denver
Times gives many reasons why a
woman should not marry a man
to reform him. This reforming
business by either a man or a
woman is, as a general thing,
disastrous business. It generally
winds up in the police court or a
divorce case, either of which may
prove very costly as well as
humiliating. Marry the best
article YOU can get and leave the
reforming to the Salvation Army.

For men who toll

has been conducted the best of
any strike we have ever known.
There has been no lawlessness or
rash acts, either by the men
themselves or sympathizers. This
is possibly on account of having
conservative leaders, as much as
anything else, men who know
that these resorts to violence and
rash acts are calculated to hurt
even a good cause. Those who
are at the head of the strike are
now visiting the towns over this
section of the state and enlisting
the support of the business men
and especially the boards Of
trade, laying the case fairly be-
fore them, thus securing resolu-
tions in their favor and a arequest
from many to management to
deal justly by the strikers. What
they ask is very reasonable, one
dollar and seventy-five cents per
day for the men and sixty-five
dollars a month for the foreman.
If strikers ever had a just
cause and one that should be re-
warded with consideration it is
this one. The main thing that
the leaders are attempting to do
is to show the business men that
the foreigners who have been
imported to take the places Of the
strikers is not best for the bust
ness interest for this section Of
the state as most of the money
paid them is sent away to for
eign lands to support familieA
No one can say that the demand
Of the strickers are exhorbitant,
and no well thinking person be-
lieves that it is to the best inter-
est of this or any other section to
have it filled up with people who
are not even citizens. In the
time to come it will even curtail
the earnings Of the Denver and
Rio Grande railroad in this sec
ton, for foreigners do not live
like Americans.

should mean thirty days notice.
No human being can say that
twenty-eight days is a month,
for that is all that could be
covered in four publications.
The U. S. government requires
six publications for thirty days
notice. That is absolutely safe;
so is also five publications, pro-
vided the date of sale is placed
full thirty days after the date of
the first publication. The treas
urers have unquestionably taken
the right view of the matter and
by this means can forestall any
suit in court that might be filed
because Of insufficient publica-
ton. The attorney who drew up
the revenue law either overlooked
this point or intended to leave a
loophole for future litigation.
Newspapers should back up their
officers when they show a dispo-
sition to guard the peoples in
terests. = Montrose Press.
