PICK PRICE AS WINNER
IN SUIT ON EXCHANGE.
Cotton Men Believe He Will
Win,
SHOULD HIS SUIT BE AMENDED
Price Demands a Proper Classified
ton of Cotton Methods of the
Exchange to Secure a Square
Deal in Classifying.
SHOULD HIS SUIT BE AMENDED

The fact that the SUIT of Theodore FL.
Price against the New York Cotton
Exchange has been dismissed by the
referee in New York does not close the
matter. According to the idea express
ed Mr.. Price brought suit to compel the
New York Exchange to properly CLASH
fly cotton rendered to its members on
contracts.
According to the local cotton men
when cotton is offered on contracts
sold to members of the exchange they
find fault with it, place it in grades
lower than it really is and finally send
it broad where a further reduction in
classification is made in the grades
submitted.
Many of the members of the Savan-
nah Cotton Exchange are in favor of
abolishing futures trading as practiced
on the New York Exchange and declare
that it is injurious to the best interests
of the cotton trade and that it is really
nothing but one gigantic game of
gamble. They say that the practice of
theINew York Exchange are such as to
millitate the south and to encourage
gambling on a large scale.
The fact that Mr.. Price has filed a
bill to amend his complaint against the
New York body is regarded favorably
and the opinion is general that if he
does not win against them in the court
opinion against their practices that
they will be compelled to change the
rules governing the organization.
This wonld give to the man who goes
there to trade square deal whether he
buys or sells.

ease with no thought OF the heat.
Last year I made a tour through
Canada. Thet country, or at least
the western part, is certainly coming
to the front. Southwest Canada is
now quite a grain country. They are
using great deal Of our machinery
OIL the farms over there. The small
stock farmer is crowding the cattle
man out there, the same as here now.
The large cattle man IS time is limited
now everywhere, but the country will
not be any the worse off for it, for
what cattle are raised then, will be
better than now, and every farmer
will then raise few steers for mark
ct where they cannot compete with the
man that has the large range now.
From Canada I came back down in

tiful scenery along the line Of the
great Northern Railway through the
Rocky Mountains in Montana. On
the plains of that state I travelled for
distance of one hundred and fifty
miles without seeing one soul except
some half civilized Indians. That was
along the head of the Missouri River.
The next places of interest to me
was the Cascade Tunnel through the
Cascade mountains in Washington,
and that beautiful stream, the Co.
lumbia river, where the greater por-
ton of our canned salmon are caught.

packing plants, where [ learned a
