COTTON JUMPING HIGHER. Some Predict l7Cts and say that it is sure
 to Reach that by Dec. 18th.


The short cotton crop is begin ming to look like a winner after i all. The general tendency in prices is upward. There is every indication towards a sensational rise in prices.
 The Memphis Scimitar of yes- terday published the following interview with prominent Mississippi cotton man just back from New York, which is sen sible and plain:
 Cotton will go to IT. cents before the holidays" says Col. c. c. Wyatt, of Meridian, who has been in Jackson. It can't go much higher than that" he continued. for when it does, it comes into competitor with for 'eign linens and cheap wool, sbut [ l expect to see it go to 16 or IT !cents and stay there for some time. ;
 Col. Wyatt has just returned from a trip East, and bases his prediction on the fact that few of the mills have more than enough cotton to run them over a week. While some of them have enouxA for . ween, most of them ha. only enough for two or three days. They seem to be waiting for a break in the market, but, according to Col. Wyatt, it is a Dull market, and prices will go higher, instead of lower.
 ''On the recent breaks,' said Col. Wyatt, most of the cotton bought was for foreign mills and, at that, the European spin ners have only a small supply, probably enough on hand to run for a week or ten days, but not longer.
 Long staple cotton is. worry ing the trade. There is but lit tie of this cotton to be had, and the automobile manufacturers are now afraid they will be un- able to secure a supply sufficient to meet their own demands. The automobile makers are using a great deal of long staple cotton, and the demand for it is increas- ing every year. It is used for tops and in the tires. and other grades of cotton will not do, but where they are going to get long staple is a question.
 Tt is not a question of price with them, but one of supply, and if the boil weevil gets into the long staple belt it is going to hurt the automobile industry. They are going to Egypt for long staple, but the supply is limited, while the demand is in- creasing, and this cotton will

beggary, and too often to crime, the
many viii are dependent upon these sick
workers for their support. Therefore,
it seems to me that it should only be
necessary to call this splendid charity
to the attention of our citizens in or
der to have it well supported, and to
guarantee that everyone during the
glad Christmas season, when all hearts
are softened and purse strings loosened,
will take the trouble to remember It,
and in the midst of their happiness to
remember also the happiness of the
many who are less fortunate than they,
1t will only demand of US all a little
forethought, a little trouble and atri-
fling expense, and SO generous a people
as ours will not allow an appeal for
such a charity to fall on closed cars.
Let US all, then, make this Christmas
notable by remembering the Red Cross
Seal and by taking pains to see that
one such is affixed to every present we
send to those we love and to every let
