GIBBONS on PROHIBITION.
An ImpOssibiIIty in . Large Community
Says the Cardinal.

NEW ORLEANS. Feb. s.-Cardinal Gibbons
is quoted in an interview on prohibition
to-day in this city as saying: lam per-
suaded that it is practically impossible
to put prohibition into effect in any large
community. The best means therefor Q
TO promote temperance is to limit the num-
ber Of saloons by high license.
Il would be in favor Of infiioting severe
punishment on the proprietors Of saloons
who violated the law, in the first instance.
and in the second instance Of violation
would withdraw the license altogether.
in the country places l would suggest
local option as an excellent means for the
repression OF intemperanoe, if. in the
judgment Of the ma ajority OF the voters, the
sale Of liquor should not be entirely elimi-
mated.
Laws like prohibition that are certain
TO lie violated had best not be made. for

MACHINE TO PICK COTTON.
Tt May Revolutionize an Important
Industry.


It is claimed by men who have had
enough experience to know, that the
mechanical picking of cotton, without
doubt one of the most important agri-
cultural problems of the day, is about
to be solved by the newly patented ma
chine described in this article. Modern
machinery has reduced the labor re
quired to produce bushel of corn from
four hours to thirty-four minutes, and
wheat from three and half hours to
ten minutes, but up to the present time
cotton is being picked by hand as in the
beginning, Notwithstanding the efforts
of scores of inventors to devise a prae-
teal cotton picking machine.
The great difficulty which has barred
success, and which it is claimed this
machine has gained a victory over, is
the fact that cotton, unlike cereals,
does not ripen uniformly, and therefore
cannot be harvested Unfortunately.
Only the ripe cotton must be taken,
and the plant with its leaves and green
bOlls must be left unframed after the
machine has passed through.
Such a demand would seem, at first
thought, TO be foolish appeal for al
most human intelligence in a mechan-
ism of steel, yet all tests seem to posi-
lively prove that the machine can do
this. In the demonstration rose bushes
have been run through the machine
without harm to full-blown roses or
buds. Sticks of oak wood three and
four feet high have been set in among
plants and the shippers ran through
the rigid sticks and the yielding, pill
able, growing plants equally well. This
is possible because the movement of
the pickers is perpendicular, and it is
because of this perpendicular movement
that the machine is expected to be a
success where other machines have
failed.
