STRONG UPWARD
PULL IN COTTON
IN NEW ORLEANS
Market Opens Down on Easy Tone
in Liverpool, but Recovery
Is Speedy.

NEW ORLEANS. Jan. 17.-Al
though opening several points down.
in sympathy with easier Liverpool
cables, the cotton market to-day sub
sequently developed a strong upward
tendency, on both spots and futures.
The professional element, anticipat-
ing further liquidation on the part of
long interests, sold the market freely
during the first hour of trading. The
market absorbed all contracts offered,
however, without depressing prices to
any extent.
There appeared to be considerable
fresh buying at the recession from
the high level established Friday and
when shorts attempted to cover they
found the market bare of contracts.
Reports of a good spot demand at
higher quotations also gave a stimu-
lus to the market, which quickly ad-
vanced 8 to II points from the early
mornings low level. The market
closed steady. with prices at the top,
showing a net gain for the half day
Of 5 to points
Spots were officially reported steady
and is higher on all grades Sales
amounted to 677 bales of spots and
$40 bales to arrive, on the basis of IS
cents for middling. Texas spot mar
kets ruled steady and unchanged, ex-
cept Galveston, which was higher
Except for occasional reactions,
brought about by technical conditions,
the cotton market has displayed an
upward tendency during the last
week. While futures have scored a
net gain of only 9 to 10 points, spots,
| on the other hand, have advanced
a quarter cent, showing that the real
strength of the market is to be found
in the actual article itself.
Good grades in this market have
scared to the highest premiums of the
| season, and even at that enhance
ment in values are almost unobtain-
able
AS a consequence, the demand is
now turning toward the lower grades,
hitherto neglected, and has tended to
remove a feature which has been a
depressing influence.

In changing the Journal to
home print we hope to improve greatly
the local news service given our pat
rons. At present, on account of the
fact that we are obliged to have our
type set out of town, we are publish
ing the paper under a considerable
difficulty, and we hope that our readers
will bear with US in patience for a
couple or three more issues, after
which we will have facilities for doing
all our typesetting. at this office. We
believe the all-home-print will also
benefit our advertisers to great ex-
tent in the fact that their ads will
be given much better display where
the news service is more spread out,
and of larger scope.

aud Mrs. Jasper Zopp, a son.
Mrs Phoebe Rice of St. Paul and
her nephew, John Franks of Dako
ia, are here on visit to the Meach-
ans and other relatives.
About one year ago, forty-six
citizens, firms and corpor atoms of
the village of Ellsworth subscribed
various sums of money, ranging
from ST up to So Is each, to be used
in conjunction with $500 raised by
the town of Trimbelle to secure
state aid in mecadamizing the east
erly portion of the Trimbelle and
Ellsworth road. All of the sub
scribers have paid in their subscrip-
tons. The town treasurer is now
collecting in the towns share, and
by the time the weather will permit
of working on the road all the mon
ey will be ready for use. The
amounts given voluntarily were all
liberal when considered from the
point of financial ability to pay,
much more in fact than some tax
payers have paid who think that
state aid for highways is wholly to
blame for high taxes. A printed
statement of taxes paid in Pierce
county shows that So SO out of every
500 taxes is for state aid, so
that the tax payer whose taxes
were $3.50 has not paid as much
toward state aid for highways as
the largest subscriber voluntarily
gave. There is pobably no other
thing that the politicians would be
so pleased to have the taxpayers
wrangle over as the state aid law,
for while they are doing that they
lose sight of the larger things
which are really to blame for the
high taxes, and the politician goes
merrily on reaping his harvest
