ten CENTS COTTON
IS The PREDICTION
RECORD. Breaking Crop Shows Sfgaduy
lowering Prices.
The BEARS have BEST OF IT
And Many Other Things Serve to Play Factor
In the Reduction of the SOuth'S
Great Crop.

New Orleans, Aug. Ia. = Has
the promise of a record breaking
crop brought cotton within the
sphere of the worldwide in
fuences that have been at work
for some time past to reduce the
cost of living? Only upon this
hypothesis can one explain the
spectacular and sensational de-
cline that has taken place in the
cotton market within the last
few days.
When the market first broke,
following the appearance of,rains
in Texas over a month ago, from
lin t h e neighborhood of 1880
cents for the new-crop months to
II cents, there were some of the
operators in market would go to
- cents. There were S o m e
operators, however, who believed
that, after such a decline as the
market had experienced, a good
reaction was in order.
Among those who thought this
way were some of the operators
in this market who had made
considerable money on the break
from Is cents down. They again
backed their judgment and went
long of the market. The result
was that at least one prominent
ex-bear was caught heavily in
the slump from IL cents to II
that took place last week, and
was ginned out of the market,
minus all the profits he had made
on the bear side.
At Il cents a fresh crop of re-
actionists sprang up, and for a
time it looked as though they
would have their way. Last
Saturday, however, the market,
the undertone of which had been
weakened by the anxiety over
the Moroccan situation, again
caved in, SO to speak, and since
that time it has been hard to find
any traders here who have any
faith in the m e t Or who
believe that it will be possible to
maintain prices above the level
of 10 cents much longer.
AS if aggravating a situation
already complicated by fear of a
famine in India, which would re-
strict the output of the Man
chester mills, and by apprehen-
sion as to the final outcome of
the diplomatic pourparlers n o W
going on between Germany and
France over Morocco, has come
a threatened revision of the cot
ton schedule of the Payne tariff
act. 1t is believed in this market
that entirely unexpected weak
ness of the market Saturday
was due to selling from interests
closely allied with the New Eng
land spinning interests.
It is evident that the New
spinners bought a good
many contracts arounde13 cents
at the time that the purposely
exaggerated reports circulated
about the drouth in Texas and
parts of the belt led most
of the trade to think that the
prospect was for another short
crop of cotton. At the time
these contracts were b Dough-
there was no reason to expect
that any revision Of the cotton
would be attempted.
The sudden coalition in the Sen
ate, however, between the Dem
ocrats a d the insurgents, by
means of which the wool sched-
ule was revised and the cotton
promised changed all
previous calculations and neces-
STATED a changed attitude to-
wards the market by the New
interests. Hence, the
assumption by the trade here
that the new England interests
recently been heavy sellers
of the market. A

taxpayers of the county to
say whether or not the com
missioners shall expend S., 600
for the purposes stated. If a
majority think it should be
done now, and are willing to
pay their proportion of the
burden, it will be all right
with us. But before signing
the petition every person
should give the matter proper
consideration. Some people
will sign most any old kind of
i petition presented to them
just because they see some
one else's name on it, or just
because the party presenting
it says that it is all right.
Too many people act upon the
advice or suggestions of
others instead of studying a
proposition and then acting
upon their own Judgment.

A Token of Esteem.

Editor Examiner.-On the 9th inst.
Mr.. L. II. Long, having sold his cosy
home and other holdings in Blooming
ton, left the snug little village of his
birth, where he had lived for forty
four years, to take up his residence in
Rexburg.
Mr.. Long was impelled to this move,
not for the want of admiring friends of
whom he has host, but because of an
overwhelming shadow, which came q
short time since, like black cloud to
his erstwhile happy home, enshroud-
ing all in gloom. His wife whom he
adored, who had always been patient
and dutiful. for some upaccountable
and unexplained reason, left her home
with the avowed purpose of never re-
turning. Where the sunshine of happi-
ness had reigned. now came the dark
ness Of despair. What was once "Home
Sweet Home" was home no more. The
reason for this unnatural undertaking
by the once loving helpmate, the most
intimate friend of the stricken family
does not pertend TO know. The heart
felt sympathy of the entire community
went out to Mr.. Long in his sorrow,
but feeling it impossible to linger long
or near those scenes that had once been
SO delightsome, he decided to go to the
Fremont town to join his brother and
sister and other relatives.
Bloomington feels that it has lost a
citizen of the first grade, and one whom
it can lily spare. Mr.. Long is essential

proposition has been mani
tested in Montpelier and in
some other sections of the
county. The present Jail is
somewhat unsanitary and any
thing but an inviting place
for prisoners, but the Ex-
aminer doubts the wisdom of
making the contemplated inn
provements this year. Would
it not be we'll to wait and see
how Governor Hawley's tax
reform works out, before in
curing any expense that is not
absolutely necessary. Just
now it is impossible to say
whether taxes are going to be
increased or decreased this
year. If they are any higher

ToIstol,s RootmakIna.

Many who have never read a line of
Tolstoi know that the count, with his
peculiar notions of work. made his
own boots. Aylmer Maude, in his
Tolstol's biography. quotes an incident
In that connection. "As to the boots
Tolstoi made, asked a man to whom
he had given a pair and who had
worn them, whether they were well
made. Couldn't be worse, was his
reply. suspect" adds Mr.. Maude,
and the average reader will nod as
sent, that Tolstoi's boot-malsing was
of more value as spiritual sedative
than it was as a contribution to the
solution OF the economic problem"

M pntpelier, Idaho, April 81, 1911

The proposition of the city
council to make a total raise
of 1920 year in the salaries
of the police force and city
attorney is the topic of con,
siderable discussion on the
streets and not a few have ex-
pressed themselves as being
unable to see the wisdom of
such a stiff raise at this time.
The Examiner belives that
the police officers are entitled
to more pay than they are
now receiving, but like many
others, we belieye that the
proposed increase of $25 a
month for the chief of police
is pretty stiff. According to
our way of thinking, in a town
OF this size the night police is
entitled to receive the same
salary as the chief of police,
or the day man, for with only
two men on the force the title
of chief of police is an empty
one. The night man who
properly patrols the town is
the man who earns his money
and S75 is none too much to
pay for his services. A raise
Of $40 a month would, it seems
to US, be ample for the day
man. As to the city attorney
we believe that for the gener-
al routine work 500 or $3.50 a
year is sufficient, with the
understanding that he be paid
a reasonable fee in case the
city becomes involved in suit
which would require his time
in the district court. Itseems
to us that the council might
strike a happy medium on the
raise of salaries, which would
enable the city to secure com
petent men and at the same
time save $3.50 or $500 a year
from what the ordinance pro-
poses.

Death of Grandma Shepherd.

Mrs Mary A. Shepherd, or Grand
ma Shepherd as she was Familiarity
called by her legion of friends, died
at her home in Paris last Tuesday
morning. Mrs. Shepherd, whose
maiden name was Tracy, was born in
England on Jan. 5, 1881, and had
therefore passed the 80th milestone
in life. She was converted to the
Mormon faith in 1849 and that year
she married VIM. Shepherd. They
came to the United States a few years
later and in 1877 they located in Paris,
where Mr. Shepherd died some years
ago.
Although four score years of age,
Mrs. Shepherd was quite active up to
with in three weeks of her death, and
also enjoyed attending meetings and
social gatherings.
She is survived by six sons and
three daughters, all of whom are now
in Paris except one son, Edward Il.
of Sharon, who is in hospital al
Salt Lake. Her other descendants
include 81 grand children and SO great
grand children.
Her funeral will be held from the

than last year the big majority
of the people are going to
have all they can do to settle
with the tax collector next
January.
On the other hand, if the
cash valuation system proves
to be the panacea for the exist
ing evils in our revenue sys-
tenn, as Governor Hawley
claims it will be, the rate of
taxation may be considerably
lowered and the burdens of
the taxpayers lightened. In
this event, the proposed i'm
provements to the court house
could be made next year and
the expenditure wonId not be
felt by any one.

hood, which will remain a monument
to his industry. sobriety. judgment and
sterling honesty.
We need not bespeak for him FRIEND
ship among bis new associates. for his
manly, straightforward bearing and
dealing will compel not only their
friendship, but their respect and high
esteem. Many are the friends here
who will ever wish that Mr.. Long shall
find for himself and children a haven
and home as pen manent and as worthy
as his own sterling character
