Militia a Model.

The fact that the militia Of Utah is
one of the few organizations, if not the
only one. Of its kind in the United
States today that is up to the require
ments Of the war department. and on
an equal fooJlng with the efficiency of
the regular army, is an indication of his
ability. Major Young is also student
Of military affairs and is thoroughly in
touch with such problems here. Gov
crnor Spry's position as head Of the
Utah militia and governor of the state
will naturally make his arguments
weighty with the war department
The executive committee also decided
to solicit the aid of the coast cities in
getting brigade post here An at
tempt will be made to convince the
coast cities of the value of base of
supplies in Salt Lake City in case any
coast points were attacked. 1t is be-
lieved that cooperation can be secured

The corporation commission is re-
ceiving many complaints as to the
prices that are being charged for
ginning cotton. Three that are rep.
.resentatiye are set for hearing on
October II.
f. II. Flippin manager OF the
Farmers Gin at Stonewail complains
that the two other gins there have
cut the price Of ginning to so cents
per hundred pounds for lint. He all
leges that this is less than it can
be done for at profit and that 1t
will drive the farmers cooperative
gin out of business. 1t is his alle-
cation that until the farmers cooper
ated to build the gin he manages for
them that the prices OF ginning was
excessive.
A long petition from the farmers
and the cotton raisers at Erick re-
cites that the farmers
cites that the gins al. that place are
charging 16 2-3 cents per hundred
pounds seed cotton for the ginning
and that this price is excessive They
ask that rate of 5Oc per hundred
pounds OF lint-cotton be established
Fifty-eight farmers at Perkins ask
an investigation of the charges made
by gin at that place. one case cited
being the charge of s4.S2 for the
ginning of a bale of cotton of 4sb
pounds.

st. Louis, Mo-, Oct. Especial
to Advertiser) A plan evolved by
Festus ]. Wade, of st. Louis. which
contemplates the raising OF a cotton
loaL fund of $50 million dollars
| from the country at large to be adj
Ivanced on bales of cotton. was for
msliy approved yesterday by nine
leading Southern bankers in tele-
gram sent to Secretary of the Treas
ury McAdoo last night.
They had been asked by the Sec
r"tafy to come to 81 ! "eis and re-
port upon the plan.
The action was taken after an all
day conference at the Mercantile
Trust Company.
The plan which was submitted 70
Secretary McAdoo last week by Mr..
Wade and George w. Simmons, the
treasurer of the Buy-a Haie Commit
tee of st. Louis, does not involve The
purchase of any cotton. The move
lnent is to create vast fund avail
able for loans upon cotton at not
more than six cents per pound. mid
Icling basis.
This would mean an average loan
of thirty dollars per bale and the
fund as contemplated would suffice
to finance million bales, or a com
Portable margin above the estimated
surplus cotton.
Steps viii be taken instantly tC
put the idea into execution. since the
crisis in the cotton market viii be
here within the next two weeks
Secretary McAdoo requested the
Southern Bankers to report to him
on two points; First, whether the
Iplan would meet the situation in the
South, and second. whether they
thought it would be feasible.
