Relics in Jerusalem
(London GIobe.N

Some interesting archaeological
discoveries have been made re-
Gently by French party engaged
in extensive excavations at Jeru-
salem, on the southeastern slope
Of the temple hill-the Ophel of
Scripture. A number of very ear
ly tombs containing pottery were
discovered, but only a few of the
graves were sufficiently we'll pre-
served to enable their exact age
to be determined.
Judging from the fragments of
pottery and other objects which
were found they appear to date
from about 5000 B. C.-2OOO. Some
of the fragments resemble the
class Of ware discovered by
Schliemann at Hissarlik, in Troy,
and other places in Asia Minor,
while some show traces of archaic
Greek influence.
There were also found some
broken figures Of Ashtaroth, the
Canaanitish form of the Babylon
ian goddess Ishtar, hut no inscrip-
lions either in Bahylonian or
Phoenician were brought TO light.

THE ORGANIZATION OF
FARMERS ASSO- .
CATIONS

You are all familiar with the
present system of getting cotton
from the farmer to the spinner. If
the particular cotton In question
is destined for a domestic mill,
anywhere from two to four mid
dlemen are likely to take a toll OF
profit on the bale. II destined
for foreign consignment, probably
from three to five profits, that
with a rational method of mar
keting might accrue to the farm
err, are distributed to non-produc-
tive middlemen.
I do not wish to be understood
as condemning middlemen in toto
A great many of them are what
might be termed necessary
evils" They perform a legitimate
and useful function and are en-
titled to reasonable profits upon
their transactions. On the other
hand, there are, especially in the
cotton business, an unnecessary
number who really perform no le-
Ultimate function.
FARMERS SHOULD ORGANIZE
FOR SELLING COTTON.
1t is almost absolutely impos-
sible for the individual producer
and the individual consumer to
deal directly to. their mutual ad-
vantage in the cotton industry.
Even the smallest cotton mill re-
quires many times the number OF
bales that any, save the very
largest individual growers pro-
duce. Furthermore, even in cases
Of growers producing from 500 to
even 1000 bales, the range OF
grades Offered is greater than al
most any mill can use. Hence
some form of concentration for
sorting is a necessity of the pres
ent system.
After careful study of the whole
situation, it seems apparent that
the only permanent remedy lies In
the formation OF cooperative cot
ton handling and marketing asso-
Citations of such unquestioned re-
sponsibility that spinners can,
with security, deal directly with
them to a considerable extent. 1t
is not my belief that absolutely
direct dealing will be possible ex-
cept to a limited extent, nor do
feel sure that such direct SELL
Ing would accomplish all that its
proponents claim. However, this
much is certain: associations pro-
oucing from 1000 to 5000 bales
who pool their cotton to some ex-
tent to get even running CONNER
cial lots, can hope for far more
direct contracts than can individ-
uals under the present system.

came to him-he was young! For the
first time he realized that he had let
himself grow up and lose his illusions;
that he had become cynical, tired, pro-
sale. while all the time the flame of
youth was merely smouldering. Old he
was, but only as a stripping soldier is
aged by battle; as for the real, rare
Joys Of living and loving, he had never
felt them. Myra Nell had appealed to
his affection, like a dear and clever
child. and helped to keep some warmth
in his heart. But this was magic. The
sun had never been so bright the air
so sweet to his nostrils, the strength
so vigorous in his limbs.
He had become so accustomed to the
mysterious letters by this time that he
had grown to look for them as a matter
of course, and he was not disturbed
when on arriving at his office he found
one in his mail. Heretofore the writer
had been positive in his statements, but

"ONE WHO KNOWS"
1t was as daunting a message as he
could have received-the withdrawal Of
assistance, the authoritative confrma-
ton of his fears-yet BlalSe's spirit rose
to meet the exigency with a new cour-
age. 1t occurred to him that if Maruffi,
or whoever the author was, had eX-
hausted his usefulness, perhaps Wit
toria could help. She had spent much
time in her search for this very Cardi
and might have learned something Of
value concerning him. Oliveta, too, could
be of assistance. He felt sure that
the knowledge of his own peril would be
enough TO enlist their aid, and he gladly
seized upon the thought that a common
interest would draw him closer to the
woman he loved.
He arrived at the La Branche house

DEMOCRATS CUT
TREASURY ESTIMATES
NEARLY TWO MILLION
Legislative Executive and Ju-
diCiaI Appropriations SIashed
from $36,514,955,50 to
S34I897,105,50

WASHINGTON. Dec 4.-I'he first big
supply bill OF the present session of
congress, the legislative executive and
judicial appropriation bill, was reported
to the house today. The measure car
ries $34,S37.105.5O. q decrease of $219,-
O27.Ss from the corresponding bill in
the previous session. Estimates of the
secretary of the treasury, $s6,514,s55.5O,
were cut more than 100000 by the
committee.
AS presented to the full committee,
by the subcommittee which framed it..
the bill included a provision by Repre-
sentative Burleson. OF Texas making
former presidents members-at-large of
the mouse with a salary of $17,500. But
a full committee disapproved. and 1t was
struck out.
The commerce court is not provided
for in the measure. The court asked for
$54,5O0 for the coming fiscal year. but
the committee would not allow the item.
The last legislature. executive and ju-
dicial bill gave the court just enough
money to continue it to March next
year.
TRAVELLING EXPENSES.
President-elect Wilson probably will
get the regular annual allowance of
$4,000 for travelling expenses.
The committee included in the bill
a provision putting the clerks OF the
members of the house on the house pay
rolls and paying them direct. At present
members draw $500 a year for clerk
hire and pay their own clerks. There has
been much complaint that the. full
amount does not go to the clerk. The
bill emtis all appropriations for the
mint at Carson. New, and assay offices
at Charlotte. N. c., Boise, Idaho, Helena.
Mont, and Salt Lake City. Utah.
The bill will be considered on the
floor at once and will be the first sup
ply measure sent to the senate.

Champ Clark Calls Campaign Story a
ftMalicious Lie"

Washington, March 6.-Represen-
tative Burleson (Tex.), chairman of
the house Democratic caucus, has
sent out a prepared interview in
which he says that Governor Harmon,
Speaker Clark and Chairman Under
wood, of the ways and means commit
tee, have formed a presidential
trust" to beat Governor Wilson for
the Democratic nomination.
The statement followed closely the
publication of a report much to the
same effect.
Speaker Clark ignored the Burleson
interview but OF the published report
requested that it be said:
THE story that I am in com bina-
ton with Governor Harmon and Mr..
Underwood to defeat Governor Wilson
for the presidential nomination is a
malicious lie. So are the statements
that New York is financing my cam
paign and that I am not trying to get
the delegates in southern states"

''Now Empty Signs Put Up on Build
ings in Tien Tsin.

Tien Tsin. March 5.-Two United
States gunboats have been ordered to
proceed to Taku, at the mouth of the
Pei-Ho 80 miles to the southeast of
this city. Three battalions of Jap
anese troops are expected to arrive
here tonight to reinforce the inter
national garrison.
The German troops which have
been acting as a protective force along
the railroad between Pei Tang and
Tang Shan on the line from Tien-Tsin

drawn to Tien Tsin as it is considered
by the foreign commandant that
stronger forces than are at present
available here are required.
