President Taft said few days ago
in what was known as "the White
House conference: "The Young
Mems Christian association has estab
lished its usefulness and we know
what we are talking about when we
speak of 1t as an instrument for the
elevation of any community in which
it has full scope. 1t appeals to me as
a living example of doing things. Its
secretaries know how to conduct these
organizations so as to elevate the
character of the young men In a COM
munity at time when their char
acters and lives can be formed. When
ever have gone on the canal zone
my observations have convinced me
that there is nothing better adapted
to carry out the legitimate purpose of
the government, to have the canal
constructed by contented people, than
the establishment of clubs like this
have seen the organization at work
in Manila, Hong Kong and Shanghai.
Many who are not confessed christians
realize its advantages and give their
money to continue its usefulness"
John Wanamaker not long ago made
this significant statement: mo man
who has ever invested 81 in the work
of the association would take IS to
get it back"
George w. Perkins says: 1T seems
to me there is no work going on in the
world that means so much for the
world at large as this
Ralph Common says: I'VE all thought
that Winnipeg would put up the money
($350,000) for two new buildings; many
of us thought that part of it would
come with a grudge. -" The closing
scene of the campaign was heart
stirring. Hard-headed business men
to their own amazement, and the
amazement of the beholder, revealed
a capacity of enthusiasm and deep
emotion of which their dearest friends
and bitterest enemies would never
have accused them. A new
standard of duty was established in
regard to wealth. A new confidence
in our ability to do things. These
results combine to inaugurate a new
era in Winnipeg's history"

LOCAL COTTON MEN DO NOT
LIKE MONEY LENDING PLAN
Declare Southern Farmers Too
Wise to Pay Interest De-
manded by Bankers.

According to opinions expressed
by local cotton men, they do not
believe the plan of New York
bankers and the governors Of sew
eral Southern states will prove
very beneficial to producers OF
cotton in marketing their crops.
A number of gentlemen engaged
in the cotton business here we're
interviewed by a Commercial re-
porter Friday, and while some Of
them said they had been too busy
to famillarize themselves with the
scheme those who were posted
unanimously opposed It.
II is contended BY those who
have personal relations with the
farmers Of the South and know
them to be men possessed Of good
business Judgment that they viii
not be foolish enough TO stand for
the methods OF lending suggested
BY the gentlemen who formulated
the plan. II seems 10 be the con-
sensus of oJinion that farmers are
better off under the system Of
lending money which now pre-
walls throughout the South than
they would be By the plan now
proposed. or another new plan
that might be inauEurated.

growing more prosperous each
year. This fact has recently been

cases, and will be ably assisted
by County Attorney j. |. Stur-
divant.

men responded promptly, but
when they reached the scene the
fire had made such headway that
ii was impossible to check il.
There was high wind blowing,
and this wind carried the sparks
to adjacent buildings, the home of
Mr.. w. f. Leigh and other cot

been ignited. The firemen prompt

known, nearly the whole house
having been ablaze when the
flames were discovered. There
was no time to get any thing out
of the building, and the furniture,
which was valued at about $500,
was a total loss. The. building,
which was worth about 81 800,
was insured for 81, 900, but there
was no insurance on the furniture.
