COTTON CROP IS DOING WELL
Condition Good Except in Ark
 ansas and Texas.
Lack of Rainfall Has Damaged Hill Lands in This State, but Lowlands
 are Excellent.

Memphis, Sept. 2.-The Com mercial Appeals weekly summary of the cotton crop condition was is- sued today and is as follows:
 With exceptions in Texas and Arkansas hereinafter noted, the cotton crop continued its advance ment last week, and has now reached the most forward stage of its development yet seen, rounding out the old cotton season with a reasonable approach to normal con- ditions.
 The plant in many sections is loaded with bolls, which if allowed to mature will produce a heavy yield. It is from the bottoms and the lowlands of the central and eastern belts that the most favorable reports come. On some of the hill lands in the central belt the rain fall ihas been below requirements, but prospects are still fair.
 The weather was dry over the entire cotton belt during the week, except for scattered local showers.
 The dry weather was beneficial in both the Carolinas, Georgia, the larger part of Mississippi, Alabama Tennessee, Oklahoma and the Indian Territory and Louisiana.
 Tn Arkansas the lack of rainfall has damaged some of the hill lands becanse previous showers were but light. The lowlands send brilliant reports.
 The whole of Central, Southern and Western Texas and parts of the east are in very serious con- dition. Over nearly all of this area little or no rain fell during the month of August, while very high temperatures prevailed. The plant has ceased its growth and shedding has already taken place to an alarming extent. Rain now would benefit the northern part of this dry belt only. Northern Texas, across the entire state has good to moderate prospects yet, though no rain fell during the good rains.
 The plant is still forming fruit. and the average of replies indicates that picking will not become gen. eral before Sept. IS.

AUDITOR ISSUES WARRANTS
Settles Question of "Tieing Up School
 Fund" in a Practical Manner.

The question of the disbursement of the school fund of the State of Arkansas has been settled by the action of Dr. Avery E. Moore, State Auditor, when he issued two warrants upon the fund in favor of Independence and Randolph coun- ties. It will be remembered that after the attorney general rendered his opinion as to the powers of the state capitol appropriation it was said that the pension and the school funds were all tied up by reason of the fact that no appropriation had been made for a number of years for its distribution. Dr. Moore has steadfastly refused to discuss the matter in any manner, declar- ing that when the time came he would act as seemed to him correct, and this time arrived today, when the certificates of Randolph and Independence county were present. ed to him. There was no hesitan- cy in the office of the auditor when they came in, but the warrants were issued immediately, as if the opinion of the attorney general had never been rendered. It is held that the opinion of the attorney general in no wise affects the school fund nor the pension fund, and it is believed that upon this fact the action of the auditor is based. However, he will not talk regard ing the matter. When he was ap- preached for statement regarding the case this afternoon he repeated that there is nothing to say. This office is for work for the state and not for talk" was all he would say.
 The warrant for Independence county was for ST, ,I25, 20 and that for Randolph twas for SS,497. 50. At a late hour this afternoon these warrants had not been turned in to the treasurer and were therefore not paid at that time-Arkansas Dem ocrat, September 5.
