Good Prospects for Fifteen Cents Cotton

with favor an expectation Of some
where around 100000 bales,
which, in view OF the increased
acreage in the Vest and the large
condition gain in the Atlantic
states, does not look at all un-
reasonable. But this involves a
deficit for the year OF 100000
bales.
The main point is. the world
wants 100000 bales, while we
can see only a prospect of IA
100000. The farmer need not be
i'll any hurry to sell his cotton.
lie should sell little as he needs
the proceeds, but he need not be
worried over the fear that unless
he makes all haste to catch the
good prices now obtainable he will
have lost his chance The consum-
ing world has not yet had time to
become fully appreciative of the
shortage in the coming supply.
There is no occasion for the appre-
hension that the best has been
passed every time the market
eases OF a trife."

DOGS MOURN MAYOR GAYNOR

From the Savannah News.
Not the least among those who
mourn for Mayo Gaynor are his
three dogs at the GaynOr country
place at St James, L. I. Mayor Cay
nor passfonateTy loved his dogs and
they in turn fdea1ized their master
as only a dog can. An Irish setter
that was the mayors favorite and his
constant companion on his walks and
tramps is said to be pathetic in his
constant search for the master whose
hand will never stroke him again.
The setter wanders over the estate
with his nose to the ground, in tire
less quest for a lost scent, followed
by the little Scotch and Irish terriers
that shared with him the mayors al
lection. Invariably he brings up at
the yard of a liyeryman, where May
or GaynOr was a frequent caller.
Friends of the Gaynor family say
that the dogs expression is piteous-
" pathetic as he hunts in vain for
the master he will never find. That
mans best friend is his dog is say
ing trite but true. A man never gets
so low that his dog ceases to love
and adore him. lie may sink to
such depths of shame and dissipa-
I ton that he loses his own self-re-
spect and that of everybody around
! him.

Huerta MexiCo'S Savior?

That Huerta may become the say
Tor of Mexico by the strength Of mil
itarism and the use of an iron hand
like that of POrfrio Diaz is predicted
in an article in the current issue OF
Frost's Magazine, The Call Of the
South" by Judge Henry l.. Brad
ford, a prominent jurist and author
of the Pacific coast.
Judge Bradford does not condone
or discuss the alleged cruelty by
which Huerta climbed to the presi-
dents chair. He simply faces the
fact that Huerta is gradually getting
a grip on affairs. After reviewing
the era of prosperity that marked
the presidency of Porfrio Diaz the
writer compares it to the state of in
surrectiOn and material distress
which the country has been in since
Diaz's overthrow, and says that the
condition of Mexico is such that the
disorder must continue until anOth-
er man with an iron hand takes hold
of the reins of government. He sees
some indications that Huerta may
be that man.
Judge Bradford concludes his ar
ticle with the following paragraph:
1.-The time for intervention is over;
that should have been done, if at all,
when Madero began his work of de-
struction. There is now little or
nothing left to destroy The present
government is doing all within its
power to repair the damage. The
iron hand so long relaxed by Diaz
is again being invoked in the pacifi-
cation of the country. Militarism,
so log neglected, will again prevail
as the only means of insuring apoth-
er prolonged era of peace and pros
perity in our neighboring republic. )"
On the principle of giving the
devil his due we are fain to remark
that to our mind this man Huerta,
much abused, has taken a rather dig
nified stand in his recent message
to the Mexican congress. I. Is 70 his
credit that the spirit and words of
his address are conservative and
rather dignified Those who were
apprehensive or hopeful, as the case
may be, that Huerta would lose his
temper and say things about the
United States have not realized their
anticipations. He talks mildly and
with a show of patriotic feeling that
does him credit.

monetary gain by advising peculiar
systems of diet. Neither class can
afford trustworthy advice. In most
of the recommendation of these
self-established experts there is
hardly a shadow of reason"
The ordinary American diet fur
hishes the body with what is needed
to sustain it, and the fad for whole
grain cereals and the like is useless.
Raw food, clean and free from con-
tamination, is all right If anybody
wants to eat it in that way. The
truth of the matter is, however, that
mans chances of health are best
when he eats with moderation a diet
made up of clean, wholesome, ordi-
nary foods well prepared in the usu-
al way

Statistics of the worlds con-

A Hot-Bed of Reform.

For several years the state of Ore
gOn has been the greatest expert
ment station of political reforms, the
preacher and the practicer, in and
out Of season, of the system of direct
government. Plan has succeeded
plan, each more revolutionary than
the last, with bewildering swift
ness sufficient to dizzy the people
of states who are not in the habit of
changing their style of government
every six months or SO. There are
three or four popular rule move
ments in the state, each vieing with
the others in the PRONUNCIATION OF
new-fangled governmental theories.
Political reforms, or the various nos
trums tA2+ 90 by that name, never
cease to ferment. The very last
word, the latest up-tO-date theory OF
government-there may be another
last word next months proposal
to abolish both the state senate and
house of representatives. and place
the business of the state in the hands
of a commission This scheme to
dump everything into the waste bas-
ket. to scrap the whole governmental
machine. is to be submitted to the
people through the initiative.
Strange to say, this plan did not
originate with the political freaks
and agitators, of whom Oregon has
more than her share, but found its
inception in the ranks OF merchants
and business men. 1t is more than
likely that it is due to a belated re-
alization of the fact that the curtail-
ment of representative government
by the establishment Of the initia
tive. recall and referendum, on muci
too liberal lines, has resulted in get
ting no laws at all. In Oregon tn
people have been tending to an al
most unbroken rejection of all law
submitted to them, and in this dilem
ma the state must either retreat 0
go on to further unpioneered an
hazardous experiment.
The Oregon system was establish
ed to eliminate the bosses, but it ha
had anything but that effect with il
JOB lots of reform.

Cut 1t Out, Mr. Bryan,

The New York World has made a
proposition (Which is printed on an
other page) to recoup Mr.. Bryan
for what he may lose by giving up
chautauqua tours, paying him an
additional $4,000 while he remains
secretary of state. This step on the
part of the World is bound to COM
mand general and serious attention.
1t is a matter of common knowledge
that Mr.. Bryan has a fairly generous
income outside of his salary as Sec
rotary OF state. Those best acquaint-
ed with his affairs estimate that he
is in receipt of at least $25, 900 from
the investments already made. The
News, having always been a we'll
wisher and supporter of Mr.. Bryan
in his political aspirations, cannot
be classed among his captious critics
when we say that beyond question
many people believe he has impair
ed the dignity of his nigh station by
his determination to continue in the
lecture field and make money there
from. 1t would, perhaps, have been
better for all commemorative secre-
tary of state and the American peo-
ple-had Mr. Bryan felt able to
abate his aspirations as to money
making, pure and simple, while oc-
cupying the leading position, next to
the president, in the government of
the United States.

The state of Georgia is facing
something like disgrace in connec-
ton with the condition of the gov
errors mansion. The old mansion
is ramshackle and about to tumble to
pieces. While Governor Brown lived
there he was hit with falling plaster,
and his family subjected to many
inconvenience. When the Stations
moved in the old house was in still
more tumble-down shape. The Sla-
tons were game, however, and tried
to stick it out, considering that the
official mansion was the proper place
for the governor to live, but the di-
lapidation is now so great that they
will have to abandon it and live at
their own home, where they now
are.
