The Lincoln Memorial

The park commission and practically
all the students of such matters agree
OH n plan. They hold that the Lincoln
memorial should he at the other end
of the great avenue from that occupied
by the Grant monument. This would
place 1t at the Potomac water front.
at the foot of the avenue. Halfway
between it and the Grant monument
would stand that greatest of shafts.
the Washington monument There
would be n vista unfoked from the
grave of L 'Enfant on the hills op-
poslte that would be hard to surpass
the world around. There is in the
back of the mind of the American peo-
pie an idea that they would like TO
build the most beautiful Of the world IS
cities. Had they followed Il 'I2nfant to
the letter they would have accom-
plished nothing less by this time. Hav-
ing failed TO follow him and having
gone far afeld- they have now re-
turned to the same road upon which
they started d hundred and twenty
years ago, and they may yet accom-
plish the same thing they started
out to attain. The congressional COM
expected to report Its determinations
to the next session, and if the other
wise approved plan is followed work
will 90 forth, not only on the me-
mortal. but upon the whole scheme
of the parkway and the placing of
federal buildings. The action on this
matter is expected to lay down the
definite. permanent plan upon which
the capital city Of the future will de-
velop. The friends of the park com.
mission plans who are the friends of
l. Enfant, who originated it, are hope
full that nothing will transpire which
will cause the soldier, patriot, artist,
genius and prophet of the early days
of the capital city to rest uneasy in his
grave across the river.

FARMERS OF THE SOUTH ARE
URGED TO HOLD ALL COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, Nov 1.-The farmers
of the south must withhold from the mar
ket every remaining bale of the present
seasons crop of cotton and follow this
with concerted and binding agreement
to reduce next seasons cotton acreage at
least % per cent if they hope to re-
store the south's great money staple
to normal price level and retrive losses
sustained by reason of the present low
prices.
This. is the plan, which the conference
Of southern governors sauofledk et dts cons
;eindins session Tuesday to secure Inn
mediate relief from the depression in the
price of the staple.
ENDORSES WAREHOUSES.
AS means of securing permanent re-
lief from such conditions and to guaran-
tee the cotton farmer In the future
against the necessity of Cutting the
market with his supplies In. the opening
Of the season, the conference adopted
resolutions favoring the establishment in
every cotton growing state of state con-
trolled warehouses and the collection and
periodical publication of statistics bear
ing upon the worlds demand for and
consumption of American cotton.
The proposal of foreign banking inter
ests to finance a holding movement COW
erlng 100000 bales of the present crop
was referred to a special committee for
future action.
IF the plans as outlined by the con-
I ference are put into operation without
delay" said Gov. o. B. Colquitt, OF
Texas, the father of the conference,
there is bound to be an almost imme-
date increase In thes price of cotton and
traders In the speculative world will
be put TO rout. The statistics which We
have compiled showing the worlds de-
mand for American cotton prove beyond
doubt that every pound OF this years
crop is worth Is cents. or more, and the
battle is won IL the south's farmers will
stand firm"
WILL, PROTECT FARMERS.
Governor O'Neal, of Alabama, expressed
the opinion that the comprehensive plan
outlined, If strictly adhered to. will re-
suit in securing millions of dollars more
for the unsold portion~of the present
seasons crop than the cotton planter
can possibly get by continuing the pres
ent suicidal plan of marketing the staple
as fast as 1t is ginned.
Not in her history he said. has the
south so needed an exhibition of the
manhood of her citizens, and firmly be-
lieve that the message of this conference
will not be unheeded."
The recommendations of the confer
ence follow:
1--WE earnestly recommend to the
planters of the south ern states to fol-
low the example of Louisiana and so d.
versify their crops as to produce every
thing necessary for consumption on tne
farm. and let cotton be the surplus crop
even if .ae quantity raised shall be %
per cent less than the present crop. as
then they will get just as much in re-
turn for much less labor than this years
crop will yield at present prices, will
soon free themselves frbm debt and be
in condition, without any financial aid,
to sell eneir crops gradually, as the de-
mand shall exist, and not market the
