'|The Imperial Department of Agriculture
has established d system of buying cotton
from the growers. This has been a power
ful influence IN the development of the cot
ton industry The cotton growers are all
peasants who would not interest themselves
in cotton if it were necessary for them to
wait until the cotton could be sold and the
money returned, and there are III these is;
lands no merchants with the capital neces-
sary for such an undertaking:
'It is gratifying to be able to report that
a large proportion of the money paid for
cotton went to Virgin Gorda and Anegada,
where very little can be grown except cot
ton"
1t is pleasant to learn that the industry
was s~elf-supporting, the cotton sold by the
Station having paid all expenses and left ap
estimated balance Of about 5000,
Among other matters, the Report contains
a translation of some notes of q visit to the
Station by DIR. F. Borgesen, Of the Museum
Of Botany, Copenhagen. Among these notes
we find the following passage, which will
have special interest for the agriculturists of
st. Groix,.
"My visit to Tortola shows the great need
of a similar station in our Islands where the
different varieties of plants may be tried to
find those most suited to our localities, and
where planters might look for advice con-
corning their cultivation. 1t is all very we'll
to say that our planters may also benefit
from the experience reaped iii the surround
ing English and American colonies, but one
thing is, hat what suits one place may not
be the exact thing for another. Another
thing is the Importance of having q station
near at hand, so that the planters might go
there at any time for information. Finally,
the other colonies belong to foreign nations,
who may not look at our islands in as friend
ly a way as they do now, and assistance may
not always be given so readily"
The Report is illustrated with seven beau
tiful photographs, which not only add to its
appearance, but are valuable as helping to
give a clear idea of what is being done at
this very Useful Station,

Railroad Assessments.

Railroad assessments.
Frank Frantz while campaigning
for governor last fall on the republi-
can ticket. was treated very nicely by
tho railroad companies of the state.
When Secretary Garfield Just happen
ed to drop down here and wanted to
make a tour of the Eastern half OF the
state. the vice-presidcnts of the Santa
Fe, Rock Island, the Frisco and the
Katy. each in turn placed their
private car at the disposal OF the sec
retary of the interior and the republi-
can candidate. The latter also held
and used annual passes over the vari-
Gus lines OF railroad.
Last year the republican board OF
equalization, with Governor Frank
Frantz as its chairman, assessed the
main line OF the Santa Fe railroad at
S5,100 per mile.
The railroads of Oklahoma did not
take very kindly TO c. NJ Haskell. the
democratic candidate for governor last
fall. No private cars for him The
nest he was allowed 10 do was to pay
his fare and take his chances with
the other paSsengers. Even when so
small a favot as the stopping of a
through traiA at way-station was
asked OF the division superintendent
OF one of the railroads. in order that
the democratic candidate might be able
TO keep an appointment without tax
ing a twenty-tye mile drive, It was
cifrtly refused
The state board of equalization OF
the state OF Oklahoma. composed OF
democratic offidlals. OF which Cover
nor C. n. Hask&I is chairman. asses
sed the main line of the Santa Fe at
$4,000 per mile.
Governor Frantz had a railroad pass
Governor Haskell has none.
When Governor Haskell declared
during the campaign last fall that II
the railroads did not whip him on
election day that he would lick them
every day while he was IN office until
they learned to be good and obey the
law like other citizens have TO do II
was declared by the republican press
that his talk was cheap demagoguery.
One glance at the report OF the state
board of equalization viii be sufficient
to prove that Governor Haskell meant
exactly what he said last fan and that
he has the brains and the determine
tion to make good his promise.

With the adjournment cf the ma

in the future, residents of the first
congressional district OF Oklahoma

and their republican representative.
Bird Mcclure. eagerly waiting to see
what action he win take to relieve
the taxpayers of Oklahoma of the
s2SO.000 Indebtedness that was sad
died on their shoulders through his
individual efforts at the last session
of congress.
1t is recalled that Robert L. Owen,
later chosen United States senator
from Oklahoma at the previous ses-
sion of congress, secured the adOp-
ton by the senate of bill appropriat-
ing s130.090 from the national treas
ury to defray tho expenses OF the con
stitutional convention and the first
state election Il Is also remembered
that through McGuire's own personal
appeal to his republican colleagues in
the house of representatives. this
measure was stricken from the gen
eral appropriation bill Mcclure gave
as his reason at that time for oppos-
ing the appropriation that for congress
to allow the bill In the face of an cleo
tion in Oklahoma would simply mean
the taking away of campaign thunder
from Oklahoma republicans
That was the reason MCGUIRE gave
for opposing the appropriation of this
money. There is no general election
of state officers occurring this fall. BY
the votes of the people last fall Nc
CURE should be convinced that what
ever OF campaign thunder arose from
saddling an unnecessary Indebtedness
on the new state was to the benefit of
the Oklahoma democrats rather than
their discredit However that may
be, the voters of the first COMPRESSION
al district feel that their congressman
has no reason now for opposing the
passage of a bill through congress that
will relieve the new state of the bur
