According TO the Houston Post
there are probably fewer cotton
farms in East Texas than there
were ten years ago, many former
cotton planters having turned their
entire attention to fruit culture.
We can not confine cotton produc-
ton. In time Texas will be ex-
pected TO produce 40, 900, 900 bales
annually and this means our cot
ton area must increase year by
year and our cultural methods i'm
prove. The great question which
should elicit the attention of our
producers is that of economical
production. 1t is far more impor-
tant than the Immediate question
of supply.

A new society of society women
has been organized, with Mrs.
Donald Mclean president of the
D. A. r., as leading light. She
explains its purpose as follows:
1--WE are going to practice the
beautiful art of being agreeable
among ourselves, and then we
hope to extend the art to others.
Our association will meet at social
gatherings, at which members will
give talks on the subject. Then
when we have got the principles
instituted into our minds we will
practice the art. We hope to
reach perfection. Perhaps when
we have done that we will be able
to transmit our secret to Others"

President Ripley, of the Sante
Fe railroad, is~rather sarcastic in
his comments on the President
Decoration Day speech. He says:
"Our thanks are due for the gen
erOus admission that railroad
men are not all thieves. 1t had
come to be generally otherwise
understood; not that the President
had said so, but that those worship
ping at his shrine seemed to have
that idea, therefore a certificate
of character that a railroad man
may be respectable comes as a
grateful antidote towhat we daily
read"

weary of political inactivity, it is
said intends to become naturalized

BURL1NGToN,s suRPLrs.

The payment of an extra dividend by the Burlington directors directed atten- tion to the company's large surplus which 1t has generallyaIbeen assumed would sooner ar later be distributed It is supposed to be in anticipation of an early change of control for that company. It is now jointly owned by Great Northern and Northern Pacific, whloA issued their 4 per cent. joint col lateral bond against the stock which they held. The popular belief, Is that Burlington will be taken over by tho Great Northern, with a view to avoid- Ing possible legal proceedings by req son of Northern Paciflc's interest in the road. IL is considered indisputable that Northern Pacific is a parallel line. all though this argument woGsl scarcely hold in the case of Great Northern

MCCARTHY IS APPOINTED
FOR SERVICE NEXT YEAR
Mayor Signs That Measure, But Vetoes This
 Year. .

The resolution passed at the meeting Of the board of Aldermen last Friday evening by which George T. Mccarthy was appointed the military enrolment officer for next year, yesterday after noon received the signature of Mayor Studley, and the appointment of the board thus was confirmed. The mayor asked for an opinion on the legality of the appointment by the board and the corporation counsel returned one that satisfied the mayor that technic- ally the appointment was all right. On the strength of this he signed the res- olutien and permitted 1t to become an appointment.
 The Mccarthy resolution by which the minority report of the special com n1ittee oh the military enrolment en- tanglement was accepted by the board and MoCarthys' enrolment for last year accepted was, however, vetoed by His Honor. The corporation counsel some time ago decided that legally the appointment of enrolling officer last year was made to John Scally and on the finding in this Instance he was al- lowed to have his work accepted by the tax collector. Under these circum- stances the mayor refused to accept an order for the acceptance of MT. Me- Carthy'S enrolment also.
