COTRT POSTPONED so HANDS
 COULD PICK COTTON

Vicksburg, Miss, Oct. 13.-Judge John x. Bush, District Attorney Jas. D. Thames and the Hon. W. J. Voller returned last night from Rolling Fork, court there having been opened and the term pretermitted by Judge Bush, who was greeted by number of prominent citizens with lengthy petition signed by nearly every plant CT in the section, asking for the can ceiling of the term, so that this fine weather would allow the hands to get in the fields. Judge Bush says that he does not care to establish any pre- cedent of this kind but ill view of the recent bad spell of weather the delay to cotton picking, and the fact that unless it is picked soon there will be greater hardships on the farmers, he deemed it only fair to best interest of all to acquiesce ill the petition, hence his action. Judge Bush will next hold court in this city the fourth Monday in October

BACK FROM CUBA.

New York, Oct. 13.-Among the pas sengers on the steamer Morro Castle, which arrived from Havana, were John O'Farrill, who was secretary of state and justice in the Palma gov ernment, and Jacob Sleeper, former secretary of the American legation at Havana.
 Mr. Sleeper is here on leave of ab- sence, after which he will go to Cara cas as first secretary of legation. He will go to Washington today to report to the state department. Mir. Sleeper said the Cuban people seemed to feel the necessity of the action taken by this government, and that they were none the less friendly for the United States.

now coming to realize, that the labor available in the south could not prop rlv cultivate this crop. Events, De- lieve. are working out exactly what anticipated.
 As attesting the enormous demand for cotton, enclose print of an ar ticle published in the New Bedford, Mass Mercury" of October Sth, and d letter received by me from a Ne" England spinner, dater September ~, 1906.
 Both these communications come from tn every heart of '1ankeedolh and fully attest the fact that splnnefs are not so much concerned this year about the price which they will haVe to pay for cotton as to whether they will be able to obtain the quantity they require.
 believe that the demand for cotton during the present season will be measured only by the supply. It real ly does not make much difference whether the crop is 100000, l2,o0o,- o0O or 13,OO0O, 900 bales. Every bale of it will be needed
 Tn the two years ending September i. 1906, the world had been supplied with two American crops aggregating 25 OOO, 900 bales, and at the end of the season 19O5-6 there were only SO0,0OO bales left, mostly unspinnable cotton. This much would not have been left had it been for quality that made 1t available for spinning. It was the riff raff of two crops and practically un- spinnable.
 Cotton producers of the south will have only themselves to thank if they part with this seasons crop at an average price of less than 12 cents pound. Spinners can afford to pay this price, and being under contract for goods at figures which permit of it's payment, they will readily buy it at this price if producers do not sell more cheaply

Price Issues Statement.

Theodore IT. Price has issued the Following statement:
 As my fyiepds and enemies ill the south are probably aware. l have neV- ar hesitated candidly and forcibly to express my yfeWs in regard to the cot ssn market. Two years ago l was the first to foresee the probability of a crop in excess of 12,000,0 ,000 or 13,OO0,- 600 bales. and, realizing that the i'm pact of such a crop would greatly de- press the price of cotton, from the commencement. of the season I advis- ed everyone to sell.
 Last year I was the first to fOresee the probability of moderate crop and higher prices. and it was largely tha result of this pre-knowledge that the market was advanced to eleven cents a pound in August, 1905. Thereafter, as the crop improved and the price game a bear and the sequel proved that was right.
 As regards the present season. I have since last spring felt that cotton was destined 10 sell very much higher. This belief was based not so much on the expectation Of short crop as it was upon a recognition of the enor- nous de!laLd f0: cotton goods and consequently for cotton itself. and because l f)rcSaw what everyone is

There are hundreds and thousands OF
Life Insurance policies in force today
In the leading old line companies that
were issued from twenty to forty years
ago. Every one Of them will be paid
promptly and in full at maturity. In
buying insurance you should not lose
sight Of the fact that your policy may
not mature for 30 or 40 years hence and
that the most important consideration
| to you Is the stability Of the company
and next the nature Of the guarantees
and the probable cost. No company In
business has a larger per centage of
old policies than the Mutual Benefit.
No reputable company In business
guarantees as many valuable priv
ileRes. No company in business has a
record that surpasses that Of the Mu-

investigation will convince yor Of these
facts. IT is always on the spot with
