"AFTFR
THE FAIR
is OVER"
Both Management and Public Say "a
Grand Success

AS indicated In The Journal Sat-
urday, the state fair closed a most
|,successful meeting, from a financial
standpoint, and with great satisfac-
ton to the Board of Agriculture.
The attendance, the management.
the exhibits, the racing and the dis
posltlon or the awards were all sat
lstactory. President Downing and
Secretary Welch are receiving great
praise for their attention to details
and thorough grasp of the situation,
Tor not being afraid to make inn
provements where needed, and hav-
ing the nerve to stand for progress.
indirectly they and the state fair
board reflect great credit on the
Chamberlain administration.

cutting out pool selling was
great step forward, and had the
moral and political support of The
Capital Journal. Everybody says
the races were pulled off with more
fairness and better speed results
than 'ver before. No one had any
interest in holding up race, every
horse went his best. and all forms OF

Expert horsemen and those who
follow the races, say they we're the
best races ever held on the coast At
the start the horsemen predicted
failure, but the officials stood firm,
and the result was honest racing.
The owners of the horses went after
the purses, and taking, jockeying
and manipulating were reduced to a
minimum. The reputation of the
Salem track for fair race meets has
been raised to a high standard, and
the crowds In future will know that
the speed contests conducted under
the auspices Of the state are genuine
tests of merit, and not conducted for
gambling purposes and to rob the
unwary. In the past, IL was a shame
ana disgrace to see hundreds of
more or less Intoxicated men robbed
of their earnings, with the
state as a participant in the plunder.

that the fair would be still further

New York, March 4.-PostaI card re- turns from representative gins re- cetved by me indicate that the total ginning g5.Eg for & the entire belt up to the bales against 12,16s,000 ginned up to the 18th of January. As the ginning is very generally reported to have been completed for the season, it is fmpos- sible for me to believe that this crop even making allowance for linters can possibly exceed thirteen million bales. requirements for the year of certainly 13s500,000. The prospect is therefore that we shall finish the season with 2 Sron3te,I visible supply p impossi6ly small in worlds trade. A recognition of this fact Is already creating quite an active de- mand for the hitherto discredited the New York stock, which is now being found to have a spinnable value not previously appreciated. There Is pore- over a growing feeling of apprehension throughout the belt the season is re- ported to be from ten days to a fort night late. In the Atlantic States. the use of fertilizers has decreased about fifteen per cent. and many good au- thorities say that a consequent reduce tion in acreage in that section of the belt is indicated. In the southwest ordi- nary farm laborers are demanding and receiving wages of two dollars day. which fact would seem to initiate against any substantial increase in acreage there. If it should develop that the next crop is at all seriously menaced the situation would become acute in the extreme. In many cases, spinners are already reported to be un der contract up to March, 1908. estimate the short interest In the New York market alone at nearly two mill lion bales, 1t has been the fashion dur ing the past season to buy stocks and sell cotton and the declining stock mar ket Is reducing the margin which many cotton bears have available for the protection of their cotton contracts. The cotton market today has been an exceedingly nervous one and com mences to show extreme apprehension on the part of the short interests

 New Orleans. March 4.-Trading was pretty lively during first hour of the days session. May contracts after opening about points higher than Saturday continued to improve by selling as high as 10.63. The market being a scalping affair with an upward tendency, realizing for profit ruled easier at noon. News from the spot department, however. was to the effect that a fair business was doing and that the market was about 1-fS up. sales be- ing restricted by the scarcity of offerings of desirable grades. The movement t" ports was of more moderate proportions when compared with the big crop year, ar rivals for the day being 27,000, last year 13. .O0O. year before last 27,000, since last Friday 51, 900, compared with 26,000 yea~ ago and 47.O00 year before last whilst es- inmates for tomorrow's receipts point to a total for the day of about 33000. versus 33 900 last year and 50,O00 in 1905, which will probably make deficit in the move- ment since Friday tomorrow of about 1S,- 900. compared with arrivals of two years aGo.

 A favorable feature of the days devel- opments was the larger spot business at Liverpool.
