Some bright correspondent for a St.
Louis paper is filling columns OF the
noble deeds OF little Magner, the Hilltop
substitute quarterback. This dreamer
had him winning the st. Johns game,
holding the Army to a scoreless tie and
nlling Virginia with fright. Inasmuch
as Magnar was far from alarming
against st. Johns. didn't play against
the Army and is unknown at Charlottes-

fetched. Outside of these few details,
though, the story is all right.

gain of points, even though he finished

What Holds the Price Of Cotton Down
(Dallas News
Governor CClquitt OF Texas who is
| the father Of the movement in the
South to make an effort to raise
the price OF cotton is the leading
figure in the New Orleans ccnyen-
ton OF governors from Southern
states Mr.. Colquitt has at a great
expense OF time and energy, compiled
figures which he has gathered from
tne world markets showing what the
demand for American cotton is. He
estimates that there is a normal de-
mand for thirteen and three quarter
mllllon bales of cotton grown in the
Southern states Cf Ameica. When
the American production does not
exceed these figures he concludes
that the purchasers Of cotton need
not state in their arguments for low
prices that too much OF the staple has
been produced In ether words the
governor Of Texas has demonstrated
by figures from almost every country
III the world that there is some other
cause that holds the price eff cotton
down rather than overproduction.
In the solution OF the cotton prob
lem the governor seems to have
nothing new to oIIer. He adyices the
southern planter to raise all the other
crops he needs and TO make cotton
he surplus crop. lie advises that the
acreage be reduced twenty-five per
