ST. VALENTINES
 DAY IS DYING OUT

New York, Feb. 14.-St. Nalen- tines Day was observed here and throughout the country as usual, but there did not seem to be as much interest in the day as in form CT years. Valentines of all kinds were sold in the shops during the past few weeks, but the demand was much lighter than in years gone by and the mails were not by any means overburdened with work on account of valentines. From all parts of the country it is reported that the demand for valentines was far smaller then ever before and all things point to the death of St. Valentines day in the near future.

 Galveston, Tex. Feb. i2.-This port has broken all records in cot ton receipts Since September 1 Galveston has received 3.003. 4oS bales of cotton and the staple con tinues to arrive at an average of 10000 bales per day A few years ago such a figure even for an en- tire season was never dreamed of :. and less than three years ago D. 300, 900 bales for full season was considered a record-breaking move ment. The record for the entire season of 19O5-O6 was 2,6oG 600 bales at Galveston, or 346,S5S less than the first five months of the present season, which will total about 3,50O,0O0 bales at Galveston.
 Thus far this season Galveston has received 40 per cent of all the cotton sent to the ports of the Unit ed States, having received within 3,742 bales of as much as the com- bined receipts of New Orleans and Savannah, and today this difference will be wiped out, leaving Calves ton a margin over both ports.

was at once cleared up, and candid
public was convinced that the American
administration was therefore in no visa
to blame,
So that in this as we'll as in other
matters. the News is entirely of its
base, does not know what it is talking
about, and is sadly unfamiliar with the
situation and with the history of the
city's finances and Of the conditions
that have arisen from time to time. and
especially over this particular phase.
The more the News says about this,
the further it branches out, the more
complete is its ignorance manifest, and
the more perfect is its showing of ma
lignity and mendacity. To give the
contingent fund tho benefit only Of the
income received by 1T, and charge to
it as an adverse balance the balances
of all the funds, is such a stupid blum
der that boy in the primary class OF
any commercial school who would make

lessness But it all shows merely that
the News does not in the least know
what it is talking about in this matter,
and that if it did know il would not
have the honesty to give a fair presen-
tation.

where value and efficiency is required,
one hundred being the normal Of this

what the employees of the Government

to its surroundings, and let the Gov

We presume, therefore, in view OF its
former position on this question, that it
still thinks the laborers pay IN city
work here should not be more than two
dollars per day. Perhaps 1t Will have
the goodness 10 come forward and pro-
pose q schedule OF expenditures for the
ensuing six months which will bring
the expenses Of the city within tho
limit that it supposrs they ought TO be
confined. And in the details of that
schedule Of expenditure, no doubt will
be included reduction of laborers'
pay, at the demand and by the author
ity Of the Herald, back 80 the two. dol
lar schedule paid by Morris, and so
earnestly defended by the Herald, as
all that the laborers should be paid,
when il made its howl against the raise
in the pay Of the city's employed In
borers to 1925 per day by the Ameri-
can administration. Will the Herald
have the courage Of it's convictions
(payipg il the undeservcd compliment
of assuming il to have any), and make
a formal demand for itself and its
party, that the laborers in the employ
of this city should have their pay re-
duced to two dollars per day? If not,
why not? If il was wrong to make
the raise, why ism t If right to demand
the reduction?

omy in the administration is no doubt
put forth in accord with its former hot
and indignant protest against the in
crease made by the American party in
the pay of laborers from the two-dollar
a-day schedule which Morris accorded
to the $2.25 per day made b. the Amer
lean administration. This was fair,
and was made TO meet the increase IN
living expenses crtailed by the general
rise of prices in the necessaries of life.
The Herald made warm protest
against that raise at the time it was
made. 1t no doubt is still Of the opin-
ion that this increase in Iaborcrs' pay
of twenty five cents per day was wrong.
