MARKET FOR COTTON
VERY ACTIVE THROUGHOUT SESSION
 SALES 100000 BALES.
Heavy Realizing Ahead of Government Re- port Expected at Noon Tomorrow
 Prices Ruled Generally Firm.

New York, June s.--The cotton market was very active today. sales being estimated at 5eo,o0o bales and while there was heavy realizing ahead of the government report expected at noon tomorrow prices ruled generally firm. closing steady at net ad- vance of i5Qsa points
 The openening was firm at an advance of s@I4 points covering and fresh buying, attracted by higher cables and unsettled weather over Sunday but weather copdi- tions as reported for this morning were a little better and with the early forecast favorable, the prospects for better growing conditions naturally increased the disposi- tion among scattering longs to take profts for over the government report offerings consequently were very heavy during the early session and prices eased off during the first hour to within two or three ponts or Saturdays finals
 Around that level the market was stead- fed by active demand for nearby shorts and by an increasing demand for new crop months through wire and coinmission houses with Southern and Western connse- tions. the market in the afternoon was influenced by a good demand for July from exporters. After selling at an advance of about 20m23 points on the active months in tba middle of the afternoon. prices eased off severa points, but rallied again before the close and made new high record on the Juiy option The close was three or four points off from the best on realizing. port re. ceipts for the day were unexpectedly liRht and only about half the exports. southern spot markets were firm and generally ua- changed.

and these merchants refused to pay the Chinese taxes. An appeal to the Japanese military government of the province resulted in nothing. Chinese and all foreign merchants were rigidly taxed under both systems.
 Another form of discrimination in favor of the Japanese, even more ruin ous to their competitors was practised by the Imperial Bank which controlled the financial and monetary business of the conquered province. A system of varying exchange was in operation. A special form of money was established. The value of the money of course va ried with the rate of exchange which was arbitrarily fixed by the bank. The Japanese merchants were informed in advance of the rate and were thus en- abled to time their sales and purchases so as to take advantage of it. The foreigners were not only in the dark as to these rates from day to day but it was charged that the rates were frequently manipulated to their disad- vantage.
 The writer further said that the Chinese boycott by which the loss of our trade had been explained was comparatively unimportant factor.

OPPORTUNITY FOR SCIENCE

If the authorities of Bellevue Hospital in New York City. are interested in the cause of science they will at once give Henry Price, of Mt. Vernon. every fla cility at their disposal to demonstrate that the human soul can be photo- graphed MT. Price announces that he has given forty years to the study of the subject and he is confident that the camera will reveal the existence of the soul. a matter which some scientists have been inclined to dispute. He has a photographic outfit with which to demonstrate his theory. Of course 1t will be understood that he possesses a soul himself, but he is satisfied that the only time that the soul can be pro- togra phed is when it is taking its flight from the human body. He pro poses, therefore, to install his apparat- us in one of the wards of Bellevue and when patient reaches the point of dis winds its flight The only drawback to the scheme is that if the experiment proves a success every time a great man dies all the New York Sunday pa pers will be publishing photographs of his soul with the other pictures in the magazine section.

We are an exceedingly snobbish peo- pie, perhaps more so than any other. That demonstration at Chicago on Sat urday when John D. Rockefeller went to court to testify, only proves again the great servility of the American people to great wealth. No doubt three-fourths of the members of that mob are among those who daily de- nounce MT. Rockefeller and all others who count their dollars by many mill lions. Yet they could not resist the temptation to offer him their sincerest tribute by forming a rabble and cram ing their necks to get only a glimpse of him.

Verdict for Dr.. Pierce
 AGAINST THE Ladies' Home Journal.

Sending truth after a He. It is an old maxim that "a lie will travel seven leagues while truth is getting it's boots on," and no doubt hundreds of thousands of good people read the unwarranted and malicious attack upon Dr. R. V. Pierce and his "Favorite Prescription "published in the May Q9O4) number of the Ladies' Home Journal, with its great black dis play headings. who never saw the hum- ble, groveling retraction, with its incon spicuous heading, published two months later. It was boldly charged in the sland- erous and libelous article that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, for the cure of woman's weaknesses and ailments, con tained alcohol and other harmful ingredi- ents. Dr. Pierce promptly brought suit against the publishers of the Ladies' Home Journal, for $2OO ,OOO,0 % damages.
 Dr. Pierce alleged that Mir. Box, the editor, maliciously published the article containing such false and defamatory matter wity the intent of injuriny his businesS< Furthermore, that no alcohol. or other Injurious. or habit-forming, drugs are, or SSer were, contained in his "Fa- vorite EJesSfiption" that said medicine Is madg fV6m native medicinal roots and contaHs/no harmful ingredients what eveI/sfd that Mir.

 These facts were also proven in the tflal .ol the action in the Supreme Court But the business of Dr. Pierce was greatly injured by the publication of the libelous article witE its great display headings. while hundreds of thousands who read the wickedly defamatory article never saw the humble groveling re- traction. set in small type and made as incon- spicuous as possible.

ser, er will note. this no doubt is
caused by the peculiar onst tuents
of the soil, and it has been dem
onstrated that the peculiar con
ditions, soil and climatic, will
produce in their highest pertec-
ton, the high quality apples.
such as Jonathan, Rome Beauty.
Winesap. Grimes Golden and
Gano. And the Elberta peach.
for high flavor, general appearance
and shipping qualities, no other
section can produce peach that
will surpass the Paonia Elberta.
and it is these high quality fruits
that are making the money for
the Paonia fruit grower and prob
ably in a measure accounts for
the high averages obtained last
year.
AS we said before it must be
exceedingly gratifying to the
members of the Association when
they compare the prices they OBJ
tanned for their fruit last season,
with prices obtained in other
favored fruit sections Of the West
ers Slope, to find that they re-
ceived from 8 cents to 10 cents
per box more for their Elberta
peaches than was paid in any
other peach district on the slope,
and from 81 cents to 81 cents
more per box for apples. These
prices should, and no doubt will,
stimulate and encourage the grow
ern 50 that this years output
both in quantity and quality will
surpass last years crop and IT
such is the case, it matters not
what the crop is elsewhere, we
feel satisfied that Mr.. Garvin will
be able to get higher prices than
he has ever yet obtained, as he
knows the markets and if he has
the goods the people will pay the
price for what suits them.

A PERMANENT INDUSTRY.

The Annual report OF the North
Fork Fruit Growers Association
should crafty and encourage
every citizen of Delta county and
especially the citizens of Paonia
and more especially the members
of the Association. We have no
little degree of personal pride in
the showing our fruit interests
are able to make. from the fact
that we have in times past, and
expect to in time, to come pro
claim SO all can understand, that
we have at Paonia, all things con-
sidered, the best fruit section in
the United States. Mr.. Garvin' S
report brings out the fact that
our fruit industry is not confined
to peaches, neither to apples, but
both of the two great staple fruit
products, are grown in great pro
fusion, of the most beautiful ap-
pearence and of the highest quail
ity as the prices obtained will
thoroughly demonstrate. One
has only to look over the reports
of the great, almost unPrece-
dented apple crop OF last season.
and to notice an inventory of the
apples held in storage the first of
the year to appreciate the extra
ordinary price obtained for the
Paonia apples. For size. aPPe-
rance, flavor and keeping qualities
our apples stand at the head oi

section of the country and these
are facts, that the apple buyers

Shipping fruit on account OF
its perishable nature is always
more or less hazardous. This
wear our losses on Elberta peaches
due entirely to inefficient railroad
service, amounted to more than
S2,400; but we absorbed this
amount in prorating and our aver
age returns were but % cents per
box less to each grower than they
would have been had the fruit
gone through without mishaP.
Even this is cheap insurance, and
in the business of a normal sea
son it is scarcely anything, while
if the loss had to be borne by the
individuals directly affected. it
would be quite hardship in many
cases.

PAONIA COAL.

Coal has attracted the attention
of more people this year than any
other commodity and it is time
that the people were awakening
to the fact that the deposits of it
are being rapidly taken over by
the corporations and railroads SO
that soon the whole supply of
the u. S. will be in hands that
will compel the consumers to pay
heavy toll for every ton they buy.
But this is not the case with Pa
onia, tor the people saw years ago
that they must protect them
selves and acted accordingly. In
1908 company was formed
among the farmers and business
men to purchase 40 acres OF coal
land about three miles from town
and to develop it. This land has
three fine veins of coal and the
one being worked now is about
nine feet thick. The quality of
the coal is as good as the best
Pennsylvania soft coal, burns to
white ash absolutely free from all
clinkers and as clean as any coal
can be.
The company was so organized
that it can never be controlled by
few men, for the stock was is
sued in small shares and the right
reserved to limit the number OF
shares that any one person can
hold. There is no idea of max
ing this mine a dividend payer
but the coal is sold at a price
which barely pays for the mining
and the cost of repairs and i'm
provements about the mine.
This year coal costs S1.50 per ton
but that price will be reduced
when some Improvements, now
under way are completed.
A years supply for an ordinary
family can be bought for $40
which is an item that should at
tract the attention of person
who is considering the things
that make for the good OF a coun
try and place to live. When a
man brings bushel of apples to
town and can, with the proceeds
of it, go and buy ton of coal he
