THE LOCAL COTTON
THE SPOT MARKET RESUMES THE
 GOOD PRICES.
Futures Advanced After Dull Open ing and Tone at Close of Business Was Very
 Steady.

Influenced by futures the Montgom- cry spot market jumped up again yes ferday and at the close of business the situation looked favorable for con- tinuation of the advance today.
 Futures opened 2 to 3 points lower than Thursdays closing but an advance began early in the day and the close in New Orleans and New York was very steady with a recovery of 10 to l2 noints from oBening quotations.
 Weather conditions were reported fla yorable throughout the cotton belt, but statistical statements were said to De very bullish.
 The preparations for the new crop are being carefully watched and will undoubtedly be reflected in the market.
 There was not much doing in Mont xou1ery yesterday. Farms msrs who are koIdinr cotton in local warehouses be- iieve in better prices and buyers think they may get in the market at lower figures.

In industrial and scieitihc develop
men, analogous TO the dark ages.
IL IL TO be noted that this CONCLUSION
Ia derived frgfn engineering considern-
lions alone and does not ilclude any
consideration from the political, social
or economic side. There may, 1t Is
conceivable, be political, social and
economic considerations which tend to
affect this limitation. Considered. how
cycr, from the engineering standpoint
alone there can be no question hut
that the field Of state and municipal
operation should be limited to under
taiilngs In which there Is no immediate
prospect Of or need for improved
method.
A danger which IL always ASSOCIATE
ID with the ownership Of Industrial
undertakings Is that the capital invest
ID may lie lost through the develop
Dent OF new and cheaper methods ami
processes. The extent 10 which indus
rial machinery Of certain types is rem.
dered obsolete by new improvements
IS not always realized. The writer In
~ersolally acquainted with one street
car RAILROAD plant In which the entire
Electrical equipment OF the power
house was thrown out and replaced
with improved machinery four times
within n period OF ten years. The Car.
icsic company Is reported, correctly, IL
Is believed, TO have strapped on one
occasion more than S1.OOO.OOO worth
" new machinery which had never
been used.
This has already become a serious
matter for many municipalities which
have engaged In undertakings lying
outside of the engineering limits de-
lined above. Many OF these municipal.
ties Installed plants for the produc.
ton Of electric light ut a time prior to
the advent OF important improvements
In generating aud distributing electric
.ty. and as these municipalities In com-
mo with most municipalities made no
proper allowance for depreciation the
capital Invested has been practically
lost, and In addition the cost OF cleo
,rlc light to the consumer IL much
higher than Il IN In other places equip.
ped with later and more economical
types OF machinery. In addition. heavy
and expensive repairs have been neces-
sary aud the taxes correspondingly In
creased. This has reacted upon the
municipalities, since the heavy rates
have caused manufacturers to move
away TO other towns. and this ngaln
has still further increased the burden
upon those remaining. There are al.
ready indications that a considerable
number Of these municipalities which
ave engaged in improper undertakings
are entering upon n period Of financial
difiiculty.-R. A. Fessenden.

Possibilities
of the Future
By Rev. NesOeH Di0ighf MUS

Memory gives us the past. and work
uses the present. but our real life Is
in the future. Three hundred and six
ty.ive golden days lying before US.
Think OF Il! One hour sufflced for
Burns TO baptize a daisy with immor.
tally. One hour was enough for
Wordsworth's ode to Duty. One even
ing sufiiced for Whitney to sketch his
cotton gin. One winters night gave
| the hours of Jefferson TO take from
! the Gospels his scheme Of ideal
| ethics.
For the youth the arst duty IL TO
grow. Growth means planning; plan
ming means something definite;
dehniteness appoints certain duties
for each hour.
Every day next year read one page
or poem. every day meet n man
gseater than yourself, from whom you
can learn, and help n less than
yourself. Every day do some n
stroke OF good work that will stand.
and cross one threshold to carry sun
shine with You. Every day plan to do
some ono Thing that will help men.
not hurt them; make men. and not
mar them.
You can so order your life as to
grow in health and In enjoyment OF
Gods out.of.door world. You can
grow new friendships. and keep the
Old ones In good repair. You ran so
choose the music. the great paintings
that you sec. and the architecture that
you study. as that music. and elo-
uuence. and art and worship will en-.
rich your life. You can make your
daily work. however humble II be, TO
take on the culture OF a full college
course.
No matter how old you are. OF how
much YOU have done for society. you
can open new burrows and SOW new
haryests Of happiness for generations
as yet unborn.
Are you young? Take Paul's ideal:
Whatsoever things are honest. what.
soeyer things tire true. whatsoever
things are lovely. whatsoever things
are pure. whatsoever things are OF
good rcport-think on these things"
Are you old, with al your lie Dc
hind you? Remember Gladstone. who
In his dying weeks wanted to do one
more good deed. and translated
Horace. Remember Tennyson. who In
his last moments tried TO write n
more song. Remember that English
hero who went out and planted just
one more tree on the day that he died.
Remember that SCARED apostle who
had sown the world with happl.
ness. but whose dying word was: Il
vii forget the victories and tho
glorIcs OF yesterday; write one more
golden page. stretching my hands out
unto the things that are before
This will turn the new year Into n
great opportunity. This will crowd
all the days with duties and delights.
Lifo will be worth the living, Work
will bring rich reward.
