The expected happened yesterday when cotton declined sharply and at the close spot cotton In MontgoFnery was uuoted q full 3-1sc lower than on wednesday,
 Futures were 10 to f2 points lower on the close of business and traders were generally losses today.
 While the weather for the past week has been rainy and the atmosphere damp, spee- ulators have in Q large measure offset this by declaring that tliis Is the usual weather condition for this part of the year. Further more, the weather prognosticators give aa- surance that the worst of the weather Is over and that fairer skies may be expect
 Planting has been undoubtedly retarded but Just how much remains to be seen. Ma nipuiators believe in lower prices and tt would not be surprising to see quotations hammered soon.
 There vas little business in Montgomery yesterday although brokers bought some cotton at points In Middle Alabama.

The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1906-08-17

IT COST the state of Wisconsin about
$4,000 last year for the slaughter OF
diseased animals. Twelve hundred head
of cattle and horses we're condemned and
killed by order of state authorities. The
cost to the state has been nearly S2o,OOO,
but the treasury has been reimbursed by
$4,000 from sale of hide and carcasses.
A large part of the money has been paid
to owners of the cattle and horses, the
state allowing two thirds of the value OF
a condemned animal. Under certain
conditions, when the disease is not too
far advadced the fish is suitable for
food and is 80 used. Without entering
into the discussion ~ 70 whether or not
the state should allow the owner any
thing for diseased animal that's ward
ing off great menace at little cost.
There should be small kicking on such
bills Madison Journal.

MIR LENROOT, who Is now travelling up
and down the state campaigning IN his
own behalf for the nomination OF gov
ernor on the republican ticket, states
that if elected governor he will use the
power of his position to influence the
legislature in the enactment and amend
ment of laws. This young man boats
that he will disregard the constitution
of Wisconsin which prescribes the du-
ties of governor within definite limits. 1t
is almost beyond belief that candidate
for the great office of governor should IN
this day and generation urge, as reason
why the people should select him for
this office, that he will, if elected, violate
their constitution For a candidate for
governor to coolly and impudently an
nounce to the people that he proposes
to break down the lines separating the
executive from the legislative depart
ment; that if elected he will promptly
and boldly encroach upon the peroga-
tives of the representatives Of the people
in their legislature is al insult to the
patriotism of the people because it as
sumes that such threatened acts will
commend him to them as "a candidate

GOVERNOR DAVIDSON says that he
wants to see a legislature elected which
will do it's own thinking and pass bills
that will represent the wishes Of the
public. Lenroot says that if elected he
shall consider it his duty to push such
legislation as be considers right and for
the general welfare. In other words
Davidson would be such governor as
the founders of the government contem
plated, and Lenroot would seek to be the
"hull ting" himself. For our part we
like the Davidson idea best. -Whitewa-

THE tobacco growers of this state owe
a debt of gratitude to Congressman j..
w. Babcock. which those of the Bird dis
trict ought to repay by cordially sup
porting him for reelection. 1t was very
largely through his efforts that the Phil
ippine tariff bill was smothered in the
senate committee. Mr.. Babcock took a
business mans view of the proposition,
believing the Wisconsin farmers could
not compete with the product of cheap
land and cheaper labor. AS the only
member from the tobacco growing dis
trict of the state on the Ways and
Means committee, he worked necessarily
to prevent the reporting of the measure
for considerable time. The influence
of Secretary Taft and other administra-
ton leaders finally forced the report
when Mr.. Babcock continued his Sight
upon the floor of the house, organizing
to defeat it, Most men might have laid
down after this failure, but not Mr.
Babcock. He carried his opposition tc
the senate and day after day conferred
with members of the committee discuss
efforts he finally convinced them that
the legislation was menace TO the 10
bacco and beet sugar interest of the
country and the bill died in committee
When it is considered that all this wa:
accomplished in opposition to the ire
mendous influence of the president ane
the leading members of his cabinet, the
tobacco men can understand what ht
had to contend with. Mr.. Babcock'
work is SO much in contrast with that 0
our congressman, Mr.. Cooper, that w
cannot withhold the credit due him
One was alive to the interests of his con
stituents, while Mr.. Cooper proved
traitor to the producing interests of hi
district.

Meaning of the Word Garage.

Like SO much of the motor Technology
the word is an immigrant from France
concerning which it is to be said that it
has taken out it's first papers of citizen
ship and may in time become wholly
naturalized with the probable pronun-
citation somewhat rhyming with carriage.
Even in French the sense is so new as to
have escaped all but the very latest die
tionaries. It is derivative Of the French
word care, which in it's several railway
usss may refer to switch and siding, to
a track platform or to station. In the
motor language it is applied to place
where motor cars may be stored or re-
paired.
