THE MAIN CONSIDERATION.

Who cares for the time or the money
we'll miss
Ere a notable prize car be WONT
The question of real Importance is this:
Will it be good job when it S done
When you start canal, men appeal
to your fears
With figures surprising in dollars and
years.
To all queries save one the world closes
its ears:
Will it be a good job when its done
Who cares for the hours that the ora
tors kept
We list to each favorite son
And inquire without hoping that talk
will prove cheap
"Will is be a good job when it s
done?''
When reform or revision is set under

Be the cost what it may, cen ten

eandidly say,

which the new car was badly damaged
and nobody was hurt. DR.. Allen was
credited with being the chauffeur of his

HEFLIN'S GOOD WORK TO
AID COTTON INDUSTRY

That this crop is short all well informed,
honest men admit, but there is a class
of cotton gamblers who are trying to fool
the public into believing that this crop
is large. This, of course, is done in order
to bring the price of cotton down. This
cotton crop is the shortest produced In
years, as you will see finally, and 1t cost
more to produce it than any crop ever
grown in the south. The cotton farmer
pays high prices for everything he has
to buy and he is entitled to fair and
living prices for what he has to sell. I
am sure that you will agree to this.
l am anxious that the cotton estimate
to be published Friday will speak the
truth as regards this cotton crop and
my desire in this regard prompts me to
write you this letter before this estimate
is made.
Mr.. Taylor in his letter to me regard
ing the departments former estimates,
says: They over-estimated the cotton
crop in 1907 by over 100000 bales, and
they have over-estimated all the small
crops but one-1905-during the last ten
years. Their over-estlmate in 1907 caused
a decline of SO a bale, where we should
have had an advance of that much had
they estimated the crop within 200,VUO
bales. This meant a loss of many mil
lions of dollars to the south"
II is purely IN the cause OF JuSuce ana
truth that I write you about this mat
ter. Knowing the effect that the agricul-
tural departments estimate will have on
the public, and how for good or Ill It
may affect the cotton producing people
of this country. 1 urge that the bureau
of statistics scrutinize closely every fea-
ture of information that will enter into
their finding on the cotton situation. All
honest indicat lions point to cotton crop
of less than 100000 bales. I do not
believe that it will reach 100000.
Trusting that there will be no occa-
sion for complaint about the crop esti-
mate to be published Friday and that
it may be as nearly correct as it is
possible to make, 1t, am, with best
wishes, yours very truly.
]. THOMAS HELM.
