MINNESOTA IS
FOR WILSON
EDITOR SAYS THE PRINCETON
IAN WOULD BEAT TAFT BY 1oc..
600 MAJORITY.

The following is from The Cass
Lake (Mfnn.) Times:
A friend in another state asks us
what we think of the chances of Gov
ernor woodrow Wilson, of New Jer-
sey, for the presidency. in Minnesota
Our opinion may be as worthless as
the idle surmise Of the trucking poll
tician, but we do not hesitate to as
sert that If Taft is nominated by the
Republican machine and Wilson Is the
nominee of the Demoracrts, the latter
will carry Minnesota by 100000 ma
1ority. Taft may have friends in our
gtate who win support him by their
votes. but there Is not enough of them
TO cast much of a shadow. The farm
ers and the censurers will support
Wilson because they believe in him

HEAVY RECEIPTS OF
COTTON AT SAVANNAH
Nv AssocIated Press.

Savannah. Ca, Oct. 24.-The low
price of cotton does not seem to pre-
vent the rushing of the staple to port
for export. judging from the receipts
of cotton at Savannah this season. A
year ago Savannah celebrated the ar
rival of the first half million bales of
cotton at the port for the season Of
1909-10. Today there had been re-
corded the receipt of 100000 bales so
far this season, an increase compared
to last year of 100000 bales. The re-
ceipts for today were $1,000 bales. be-
ing the greatest single days receipts
for the season. The outlook is for very
heavy exports during the last few days
of October.
