Alaska will probably be the next
state created. The census of the
territory shows now greater pop
ulation than that of many other
states when admitted to the union.
In IA current weekly publication
there appears a series of articles on
Alaska.
So far away, few people realize
the wonderful possibilitie of the
country. No one believes that the
temperature of the Alaskan capital
during the months of winter is just
the same as the temperature at the
Washington capital.
There are gardens blooming
through the summer as beautiful as
the gardens Of our public parks.
There are vegetables. grown in the
shadow of the snow clad mountains
that farmers in our Southern states
protect for the early markets.
The grain fields of Alaska are
most wonderful in the world. Oats
and wheat grow without cultivation
They are cultivated. it is true, but
cultivation is scarcely necessary.
The winters in parts of Alaska
are more severe than in other parts,
but the air is 40 dry and health Civ
ing that even school children miss
few days i'm winter because OF colds
or fever.
The most significant feature oi
the Alaskan climate is shown in the
Government health report. Invalids
soon recover there. and after acclim-
ated there is SO little sickness that
doctors are finding it difficult to
establish lucrative practice.
No one associates roses with Al
aska, nor sunflowers and carans.

tables. All are to be found in

Editor Corinthian /:

EultOT SOfiDtnldI.
Having been impOrtuned quite
frequently since the close of the
Legislature i'm regard to :he bribery
charges, and the disgraceful means
used in the secret caucus i'm the
election of a United States Senator,
also having been asked by numerous
friends if Senator Bilbo stated facts
in his speech at Corinth in regard
to the dark lantern proceedings,
| desire To give out the following
public statement:
will state in the outset that
shall confne myself strictly TO
facts and if the supporters of the
.ccmmon caucus crowd lbetter
known as the enemies OF ex-Gov.
Vardaman) do not believe the state
ment | shall make. it will he a
pleasure to me to make affidavit to
same, and, if this does not satisfy
some of the crowd, who will not
hear any evidence but their own
side of the case,' | will meet them
in open debate on the facts set
forth.
First, let me say that every
statement made by senator Bilbo
at the opera house in Corinth about
organization and working of the
secret caucus, was true, and much
more could have been said.
Well, the half has not been told;
it would take columns to tell about
the different ways and means used
to debauch legislators. The first
method was to get members to par
take of the hospitality the COM
mon caucus crowd usually kept at
the Edwards House, or that was
where | was invited to partake, but
my backbone was little too stiff
(if you will allow the expression
and | would not bite. Then, | was
told bv supporter of. one of the
candidates that they only lacked
three votes of electing their man,
and if they could get me they could
get the other two. Then il was
that said. Get thee behind me.
Satan; | am representing the peo-
pic Va hlCOlh Couutys anu diihh
they change their minds on the
senatorial question | shall continue
to vote for James X. Vardaman.
Other members were approached
in the same manner. This article
is becoming too long. but permit
me to say that the 'white-washing'
resolution referred to by Sena. Bilbo
was one of the dirtiest pieces of
work ever accomplished by any
Legislative body, composed of white
men, that ever assembled in any
state capital.
Allow me to make an earnest
appeal to the honest voters of Mis-
sissippi to condemn in no uncer-
tain tones the rottenness and cor
ruption. which prevailed at our
state capital last winter. Never be-
fore was it more necessary to elect
capable. honest and courageous
men to our state and national legis-
latures.

The Cotton Crop.

The time is now at hand which is
considered the critical period in the
history of the years cotton crop.
There are, of course, spectators
whose interest it Is to make every
item of news unfavorable, with a
view to influencing present prices,
but the great aJority of people in
terested in the cotton trade, whether
as producers. bankers or merchants,
desire to secure accurate Informa-
ton as to the prospects of the sea-
sons yield. The legitimate cotton
interests desire large crop, in or
der to make good the deficit created
by the short crop of last year and
restore the manufacturing industry
to normal conditions. To the latter
the true facts, uncolored by ulterior
motives, are desired, and not the
sensational reports intended prima-
rily to influence values for the time
being
The present growing season has
had varied history. In the first
place, the early spring was favora-
bile to the planting of large acre
age and the proper cultivation of
the fields. but within the past two
months the central and eastern por-
tions of the belt have been afflicted
with a superabundance of rain,
while the western part of the belt
has received insufficient moisture.
Owing to the cold weather during
April and the early part of May,
the crop was set back several weeks,
and this backwardness has not yet
been made up. SO that the crop, as
a whole, is late, fact which must
be taken into consideration in con-
nection with the supply during the
first weeks of the season ard the
possibility of an early frost.
Whether the crop has been as
much damaged oy the excessive
rains in the central and eastern por-
tions of the belt as many would
have the trade believe, is an open
question. That there are many
complaints is certain. but whether
the ultimate yield will prove as dis
appointing as is predicted, remains
to he seen. As far as the western
belt is concerned, it is more than
probable that the dry weather has
done but little damage. All ac-
counts agree in predicting that
Texas and Oklahoma will produce
a large yield of cotton. but to secure
full or large crop, good yield is
essential in other portions of the
belt. Whether the crop elsewhere
than in the western belt will come
up to requirements is the doubtful
problem.
A large crop this season is essen
tial to the prosperity of the South.
No matter how high prices may be
advanced by scant yield. the fact
remains that q short crop is always
q spotted crop. and high prices are
no equivalent for absence of yield
A farmer who makes little or no
cotton. after having planted full
acreage. is but little benefited BY
high prices. On the other hand, .
full yield gives employment to
labor. produces freights for the rail-
roads and insures good retqrns to
the producers, while enabling spin
