UPON COTTON RESTS
INFLUENCE OF NATION
Maintains Nations Credit in World
Commerce.

Washington, d. c., July 18.-From
official sources running back to 1870,
the ISduthern Commercial Congress
has correlated statistics that show the
dependence of the nation upon cotton
in maintaining the credit of the Unit
ed States in world commerce.
The total value of all exports from
1890 to June 80 1909, has been $47,-
991, ,224,40 The total balance in ia
for of the United States during this
period has been $6,436, ,114,566. The
total value of raw cotton exported dur
ing the same time has been $685.
353,086. These figures are for raw cot
ton alone and at low valuation. They
leave out Of consideration manufac-
tured cotton and cotton seed products.
The purpose of the compilation is 30
lift cotton subjects, enemies, and cul-
tural methods out of consideration as
solely Southern interests and give to
them their rightful place as national
for without cotton the nation would ap-
pear a debtor, instead of creditor,
on the worlds balance sheets to the
extent of $7OO0,00O 900.
