holes. | have selected the years
1903 and 1905, one as beil g a year
Of plenty, the other as year OF
scarcity, to STOW the less cotton
PRODUCED in the sea island belt the
greater will be the imports.
The importation of foreign cotton
is another question to he considered
in This connection by the sea island
growers. 1t brings the grower face
to face with system of protection, a
system which seems to be cutting the
throat Of the southern farmer; the
northern farmer has protection on
his products, and it seems fair for
the southern farmer to have the
same protection. | know it is con-
trarv to democratic principles to al
vote protection, but 1t is the only
remedy to shut out Egyptian cotton
and protect the growers from pau
Der labor. The manufacturer is re-
sponsible for the system OF protec
ton, and while all are compelled to
purchase his goods, it seems fair to
force him to buy our cotton The
surest and best iy for the dem
ocra.s to bring about tariff reform is
to place The burdens of protection
upon the shoulders Of those respon
,ible ;or the sytem. The south has
been robbed long enough and now
favor rebbing the other fellow
therefore let the sea islard growers
live tte manufacturer a dose of his
wn medicine.

see the banner Of prosperity hang.
inc from the barn door Of every
nller of the soil. Therefore, | will
endeavor to place before your read
ers some facts and figures, not gen.
erally known, concerning the sale
and production OF sea island cotton.
The information and figures sub
mitted herewith are obtained in
mart from government reports and
are approximately correct. 1t is the
intention of the government in
making these reports to reach the
farming class, but it seems that the
speculator keeps posted while the
farmer is in the dark. At present |
see only three very important reas-
ons why prices of sea island cotton
cannot be maintained somewhere
near present figures.

land belt is small and the situation
could be controlled by the farmers
simply coming together in an Of
oanization looking to their own In
terest. Thorough organization must
be accomplished before permanent
and complete success car be obtain
ed. By building warehouses at con
yenient points for the purpose OF
storing cotton the farmer could be
IN q nosit on to demand fair price
for the tleecy staple. The ware
house system fully carried out as

suppose when made into cloth and
passed to the consum mer ait Is all
wool and a yard wide" If this
imported cotton grown by pauper
labor in Egypt had been manutac-
tured into cloth in any foreign coun-
try it would have been denied adj
mission except upon payment OF du-
ty for the reason that the importa'
ton Of cloth would be an injury TO
labor in American mills. All this
imported cotton is for the benefit OF
the manufacturer wh0 holds the
home market by the system Of pro-
lection for the so-called benefit Of
American labor and at the same time
receives from the government re q
bate of five per cent. on all goods
exported to enable the mill man to
sell his goods cheaper in :orelgn
mai ket than at home. This rebate
is also for the so.called benefit OF
the working man. 1t requires
mirror on all sides TO figure out this
beautiful system. 1t brings the cot
tor grower into direct competition
with pauper labor Of Egypt for the
benefit Of American manufacturers
The production of sea island cot
ton for The year 1905 was ]l2,339
bales as returned by ginnersi the
quantity export d for the year end
ing August 3lst, 1906, was 4l,o'4
bales, the quantity consumed IN Tue
United States during the year was
72,SO1 bales, and the imports OF
foreign cotton for the same PERIOD
was l27.475 bales, the value OF the
exports being $3,23S.173 and the
value of imports amount 10
S9017.5j9. TO arrive at the iuII
consumption Of long staple cotton IN
the United States for the year 1909
it is necessary to add this imported
cotton: we, therefore, find i, re-
ouired 2O0.276 bales. Our export
trade demands the very best grade
of cotton, which cannot be supplied
from any other country; therefore
to ascertain the full demand we
must add exports, imports and con-
.rmotian: we then have a total OF
241.35O bales. Therefore, when
the sea island belt produced around
100000 bales over production was
heard throughout the land, but since
the Government has undertaken to
show the consumption of long staple
cotton in connection witt. the largest
cron on record, the over production
theory seems to be a humbug. 1t
has been SAID and claimed that
90 900 bales of sea island cotton
was sufficient quantity to meet all
demands; If such statements has any
foundation. then there should be
22 $50 bales of surplus cotton from
the crop of 1905 to be carried over
and added to the crop or consump-
ion in 1906. The figures prove
otherwise and the claim can be sci
down as an act of prevaricating'

AFTER CLAIM JUMPERS

About forty mining men of the
camp at Ely, says the White Pine
News have organized a society for
the suppression Of claim jumping.
This action was caused by the irritat-
ing condition in some part of the
district, in which properties on which
the location and even assessment
work has been done are literally plas.
tered with new notices. The execu.
tive committee of the new organiza-
ton will notify all known offenders
to desist from their activities and II
the warnings are disregarded, will
take radical steps.
The only idea most OF these mer
have is simply blackmail and they
should be sent out of camp with .
short shift.

GRAND JURY WILL InvES-
J|GlTE RAILROADS
HAWTHORNE. New. Ian. q

HAWTHORNE, New. Jan. 23-
Judge Langan, of the district court,
will order grand jury drawn on
the 25th of the month and one OF
the most important matters to come
before the body will be the investi-
CATION of the Carson & Colorado, the
Nevada & California and the Tonopah
g. Goldfeld railroads. The county
will be represented in the matter by
attorneys Swallow, of Goldheld and
C. E. Mack, of Reno.
According to the attorneys for the
prosecution, the purpose of the in
vestigation will be first to determine
whether or not General Manager ].
F. Hedden, of the Tonopah and Gold
field Railroad, perjured himself in
returning his sworn statement Of the
assets Of the company to the asses
sor for the purpose of fixing the as
sessment, and secondly, to arrive al
an equitable basis for assessing the
railroads in the future
1t IS alleged by the attorneys for
the prosecution that Mr.. Hedden, in
his deposition taken in the suit
against the company for the recov-
cry Of unpaid taxes for 1905, gave
enough information to show that, un-
der the decision Of the supreme court
governing such matters, the Tonopah
and Goldfield Railroad should be as
sessed at the rate of 100000 per mile
According to the decision of the
supreme court for the purpose OF
taxation, railroad should be valued
in this manner: The net earnings
should be capitalized at the current
rate of interest; that is, if the net
earnings for a fiscal year were 81 :
100000 and the current rate OF in
terest we're 10 per cent, then the
road would be capitalized al Sl0,.
100000. making an assessable value.
Under the above rule the Tonopaf
and Goldheld railroad it is alleged
, could be assessed at 100000 per mile
basing the calculation on the earn
sng for August. September and Octo
Der of 1906.
The assessment on the compan,
last year was $1,000 per mile, bu
this year the assessment was raised
to $4,000 to the mile by the STATE
board of assessors
