Foreign Spinners Buyinu.

The American spinners are taking
this talk of the foreign spinners seri-
ously, and while they are to a large
extent, as compared with previous
years keeping out of the market, for
eign spinners are buying every bale of
cotton they can get their hands on.
The question of price does not seem
to enter into their actual calculations,
although they are struggling to i'm
press upon American spinners the fol-
ly of buying at present prices.
- NO one familiar with the shrewd-
ness and the knowledge of business
conditions throughout the world of
foreign spinners should be surprised
at the game which they are playing. It
has been played steadily for more than
half century, but there is room for
surprise that American spinners
should so readily fall into the trap.

Cotton Should Go Higher.

1.-THE worlds improved business
conditions would have justified this.
When we remember that whatever
may be the actual final outcome 1t is
an unquestionable fact that the crop
will be very much less than last year,
while the consumption will certainly
be as large, 1t would seem that pres
ent prices have not yet reached a
point Of fairness to the grower. 1t 10
incumbent upon every business inter-
est in the south to recognize the situa-
ton and to unite to help the farmer
in securing a price in keeping with
the present increasing prosperity in
every other industry. Instead Of seek
ing to depress the price of cotton, the
south should unite to seek to advance
the price. At present every man who
is paying any serious attention to the
talk of foreign spinners Is simply
helping them to laugh up one sleeve,
while with the other hand they are
reaching behind his back AMI gather
ing in every possible bale of cotton.
Later on, when the foreign spin
ners have secured the best of the
crop and the American spinners I'M
dertake to supply their own needs,
they will wake up to the game that
has been played upon them"

Great Forward Movement.

ut finds expression in an infinite
variety of ways. 1t is stimulating the
building of railroads, the improvement
of waterways, the construction Of
canals, the irrigation of dry land, the
reclamation of wet land, and, in gen.
eral, everything that makes for tho
broadcast advancement of mankind and
for the fullest utilization of the vast
resources which nature has given us
for development. All of these things
are contributing to the better en-
ployment of people. the greater de-
mand for labor, and to an increased
consumption of foodstuffs, as well as
Of manufactured products. The iron
producers, the growers of wheat and
corn and other agricultural products,
and manufacturers of nearly all lines
are sharing in this increased activity
and increased profit to greater ex-
tent than the cotton growers of the
south. If there had been no material
shortage in the yield Of cotton COM
pared with last year, there should
have been, merely to keep pace with
the advance in other things, a rise Of
% to 80 per cent in the price of cot
ton over the average of the preceding
crop.

Worldwide Business Revival.


THE iron market is only indicative
of the general revival which is taking
place throughout this country and
which from this country will spread
to all other lands. The whole world is
going forward at a marvellous rate of
expansion in industry and commerce.
The past is hardly light by which
we can judge the future. The develop
ment in this country, wonderful as it.
is, is scarcely, when all conditions are
considered, much more wonderful than
the development that is taking place
in Mexico, in South America, in Cana
da and in many portions of the ORR
ent. The enormous production of gold,
which is now averaging over $400, 000,-
900 year, is one of the contributing
causes to this world expansion and to
the increasing cost of living.
All mankind is living on higher
plane. Wages in the Orient and in
Europe, as well as in this country,
have been steadily advancing for
some years, with occasional brief pc
RODS of reaction, such as that follow
ing the panic of 1907. But, broadly
speaking, there is a steady, world
wide forward movement.

making "a study of crop prospects and

The American spinners are being
Played by foreign spinners for suck

an energy that ought to satisfy the
most enthusiastic fisherman. In other
words, foreign spinners are endeavor-
ing In every way possible to convince
the spinners in this country and all
other people identified with the cotton
trade that the price of the raw cotton
is too high, and that the way to bring
about a reduction is to shut down
mills until cotton declines to a point
satisfactory to the buyer.

"As matter of fact, the present

which should be won out of this, ma

the increased cost of production and
the increased cost of living, 1t is
doubtful whether 13-cent-cotton is Civ

than 8 or 9-cent cotton would have
