Speaking before the National Asso-
citation of Cotton Manufacturers at
Washington, Secretary Wilson. of the
agricultural department. said by bet.
ter farming we can double our pro
ductiOn Of cotton on the acres under
tillage,' and he added that the pos
sibIlity of cotton production i'm this
country is practically limitless."
Only a few years ago Charles NJ
Dabney, a distinguished educator. and
at that time assistant secretary of ag-
riculture, made the astounding state
ment that it was entirely possible for
the Southern states, with the acreage
then i'm cultivation, and with the
means of production then in use, in
cluding labor, mules and implements,
to produce 5O,OOO,00O bales of cotton
annually. So Mr. Wilson's statement
that this countrys production of cot
ton can be doubled ION the acres un-
der tillage" is not as eXtravagant as
it might seem to be.
But what would happen if we should
produce 22,000O00 bales of cotton an
nually instead of 100000 or 12OOO,-
600 bales? How would we dispose CT
it? Where would we sell it? If the

MANILA PAPERS
HAVE MERGED
THE CABLENEWS WITH FRED
O'BRIEN IN CHARGE, BUYS OUT
CONTEMPORARY.

MANILA, Sept 1S.-The Cablenews
and Manila American have been bought
by the Newspaper Publishing Com
panY, a corporation organized a few
days ago for that purpose. The two
papers will be merged on October l
under the name of the Cablenews-Am-
erican, and all subscribers to either
the Cablenews or American who have
paid in advance will be sent the Ca
blenews-American for the terms Of
their subscriptions. hose who have
paid in advance for both papers will
be sent the Cablenews-American for
the number of months they have paid
for.
This merger has been made largely
in the interests of the merchants of
Manila and the readers of the Ameri-
can and Cablenews. The American
has been owned by the same company
as the Times and it consented to sell
some days ago The Newspaper Pub
fishing Company was then formed to
absorb the two properties. Its presi-
dent is Israel Putnam, with Frederick
O'Brien as vice president, j. F. Boom
er as secretary and treasurer, and Mrs.
Frederick O'Brien and Fred c. Fisher
as directors. Mr.. Putnam started The
Cableneys over five years ago and
leased it shortly afterward to Freder-
ick O'Brien, who will control the Ca
blenews-American. Mr. Boomer has
been associated with the Cablenews
for five years, and Mr.. Fisher acts as
the new company's attorney.

the product to the market?
There can be no question of the pro

there is a question, and it is one of
increasing concern, of finding a ready
means of disposing of what we pro-
duce in excess of our on needs and
the demands of markets now open

ducers. The ships is the solution Of
the problem, and it is the only solu-
tion. Ships must be built and put into

its production of cotton, or of doubling
the output of any other product so
largely dependent upon foreign mar.

Post Office Robbed.

Chattanooga, Tenn, March.-For the second time within two weeks a suburban branch of the Chattanoo- ga postotfice has been robbed. Early Easter morning the Ridgegate post office was broken into and cash and stamps to the amount of $273 taken. Two weeks ago the East Chattanoo- ga branch was robbed and within the two weeks preceding similar robber- ies were committed at Redwood and Hartman. The method of the rob bers has been identical in every case. In each instance a blacksmith shop has been broken into and tools se- cured for use in the robbery, the cracksmen leaving them behind where their work was done. Nitroglycerine was used to crack the safes.

TONIC FOR MOTHERS
Or. WilIian1' Pink Pills Are Safe and ReIiable-A Favorite Household
 Remedy.

Motherhood may be the crowning blessing of woman's life or it may bring grief and sorrow. Mrs. NJ. J. Wight, of ITO Seventh Street. Auburn Maine, relates her experience after the birth of her daughter in 1901, as fol- lows: Il was all run down at the time the baby came and did not im- prove in health rapidly after. l was pale, thin and bloodless. My stomach distressed me being full of gas all the time and my heart futtered so that could scarcely breathe
 Finally 1 remembered that a friend had recommended Dr. Williams Pink Pills to me so 1 commenced using them. l gained in strength rapidly while the baby throye also. When expected my next child I started talk ing the pills again as a tonic and strengthener and had no such diff culty as before. 1 got up better and my strength came back much sooner
 "A year ago last winter 1 mad an at tack of rheumatism in the hands which went from one hand to the other. The joints s>yelled up and were so stiff could not move them. The pain ex- tended up through my arms and shoulders. I felt sick enough to go to bed but did not do so. This attack lasted for several months. l tried sev- eral remedies but finally came back to using the pills which had done me so much good before and found that they benefited me almost at once I have not been troubled since"

DIPLOMATIC TANCLE
CHILE SAID TO BE OFFENDED AT THE UNITED STATES-WANT- ED AN AMBASSADOR AT
 WASHINGTON.

Washington, March.-Chile's fail ure to send a minister to Washing ton to replace Mir. Walker Martinez, who did not return here after the Pan-An:erican conference at Rio last summer, has caused much comment The neglect of the Chilean Congress to appropriate sufficient money to maintain the legation has been given as reason for leaving the American mission in charge of Alberto Yoa- cham, secretary of the legation, but 1t has just become known that the real cause was hidden deep in Ameri can politics. Chile decided it would be good idea to have an ambassa- dor in Washington, and steps were taken to discover what the United States thought about the proposed ele- vation of the Chilean representative at Washington. Chile had an ambas sador. and Chile felt that similar honor should be accorded to it by the United States.
 The suggestion that the Chilean envoy might be raised to ambassa- dorial rank set all Latin-America on edge, and a general movement was instituted by the Southern republics to head off such a movement Argen- tina, being unfriendly to Chile, was especially opposed to the plan, as Bra gil and Chile are always rated as al lies, and Argentina did not want her two youngest rivals to outstrip her in American representation.
 It has net been the policy of the state department to send ambassa- dors to any country which cannot be ranked as a world power, and when the hostility of the rest of South America to such a change became known, the United States decided that the question had better not be agi- lated further at this time.
 Before this decision was reached, however, it was Automatically hint ed that Bolivia and several of the other Western South American re- publics would probably decide to with draw their ministers and leave their legations in charge of secretaries un- til Chile was permitted to send an ambassador
