Messrs. W. P Wallis and Hollis Fort
have a plan for holding cotton that
possesses much merit and which will
meet the approval of many including
merchants and supply men and bank
ers, and as the title to the first mort
gage bonds when made payable to
bearer would pass from one holder to
another on delivery and for that rea-
son better than a warehouse receipt.
The plan is as follows:
1t is proposed that there shall be a
cotton commission composed of rep
Fesentative citizens of the several
counties Of the several states, growing
cotton, so that the matter can be To-
called for the respective communities
throughout the states; operated
through the local commissions.
These commissioners, who are moth
ing more than trustees, will take the
cotton after it is compressed Cor be-
fore where it is impractical to com
press and issue to the person bring
ing a certificate or receipt, which
shows the number of bales, the CLASH
fcation, the marks, etc, together with
an accurate description of what we
will call Cotton Mortgage Bonds"
ranging in denominations of $1.OO to
$4,000, which bonds are issued serially
being properly identified by the trus-
tees and becoming due one year after
date and payable to bearer; these
bonds and the receipts are both issued
to the person bringing the cotton.
1t will be provided in the contract
that if, when this cotton is sold by
these trustees it brings an excess over
the bonds issued it will be placed on
deposit to the original customer and
these bonds redeemable at par with
out interest by these trustees.
In the event the cotton should be
sold for less than the amount of the
bonds issued, bonds would be redeem
able ratioally at less than par. OF
course the expense of insurance and
deducted. The contracts will provide
against insurance. They will provide
also the right of the original customer

The Bankers to Confer

Preparations that are being made for
the Chicago conference of the members
of the Federal reserve board with the
directors of the twelve regional banks
indicate that the discussion will take
the broadcast possible form, dealing not
merely with the technical organization
of the new banking system, but with
the financial situation in relation to
the European war.
The conference should have a reas-
surfing effect. Bringing together the
representatives of the banks of every
section, there will be plenty of oppor-
tunity for free exchange of views.
New York and the entire East should
profit by the aggressive activity of the
West.
The plans for the conference have
been carefully made. The feeling ir
the West is that the greatest care
should be used in putting the new Fed
eral reserve system into effect, in view
Of the fact that both the Old banking
system and the Aldrich-vreeland emer-
gency currency provisions are in &C
tual operation and accomplishing all
that could be expected under the cir
cumstances.
One of the most encouraging fea-
lures of the Western situation is the
comparatively small demand for emer-
gency currency. This currency is cir
culating freely, but the demand for i,
has been held within reasonable
bounds, and there are no evidences OF
any considerable amount Of imitation
Bankers themselves are acting witt
great caution and still have the lid on
sufficiently tight to hold in check an.
wild speculative movement
The Wetsern bankers, naturally, d.
not look with favor upon any move
ment of large quantities of gold to for
eign shores if it can be avoided. A
week ago the bankers were urging
farmers to check the movement of
farm products to the primary markets,
but the feeling now is that no further
urging is necessary, as the situation
will adjust itself almost automatically.

Death of Pope Plus X
washington Post.)

" ASAAA1 + SAA SSb'(
After eleven years of benevolent
rulership over the Catholic Church,
Pope Plus X is dead Religious dis
tinctions are eliminated, and men CT
all faiths stand together in the sorrow
with which the sudden announcement
is received Affectionately called the
Pope of the poor" not only because
of his deep sympathy for that class,
but because he came from peasant
stock himself, Plus X had endeared
himself to the whole world by reason
Of his tolerance and gentleness
The death of the voluntary prisoner
of the Vatican doubtless was due ia
no small measure to grief over the
devastating war in Europe. With near
ly every nation Of Europe at grips,
locked in what seemed to be strug-
gle to the death, the sense of brood
ing disaster weighted the feeble form
of the pontiff. But his appeals to Eu-
ropean monarchs he had sought to
stem the tide of war, and the realiza-
ton of futility probably fastened the
end.
The feeling of deep sadness that will
spread over Europe may yet soften
the rage for war Wherever Catho-
lies are to be found the sense of per-
sonal loss will prevail, and among all
.sects and creeds there will be genu-
inc regret that SO fine a mind and so
gentle a spirit should be lost to the
world at such time.
While it is true that the reign OF
Plus X was not marked by any of tn?
history-making enactments that char
acterized other periods of the history
of the Catholic Church, the freedom
from discord and dissension was in
itself tribute to the character of the
dead Pope.
He was born in 1885 of peasant
parents; was a parish priest from
1858 to 1875; became episcopal chan
cellor Of the diocese of Treviso; then
vicar, then bishop, then cardinal. thea
patriarch of Venice, and finally was
elected Pope. His rise in the church
from priest to Pope was one Of the
modern evidences Of recognition of
merit in religious life as well as
among laymen.

ATTENTION PLANTERS.

Some cotton has been coming TO
the warehouses at Americas which was
ginned wet. 1t is at present difficult
to sell good dry cotton, on account Of
the disturbed conditions caused by the
European wars; and there is no mar
ket at all for wet or gin-cut cotton.
There is some little cotton being sold
to the American spinners, and they
absolutely refuse to buy at all unless
the cotton is dry and smooth and even
for this grade the demand is limited.
For your own protection please see
that your cotton is absolutely dry be-
fore carrying it to the gins.

third of the South's cotton crop, Great
Britain takes between one-third and
one-fourth, and more than one-third is
manufactured in the United States.
Germany and Austria, which,
roughly speaking, have taken about
three million bales, gill buy little if
any this year, though we do not see
why it should not be possible to furn-
ish them at least limited supply
through Italy.
OF course, Belgium will not take
any, and the principal cotton manu-
featuring section of France lies near
the Belgian border. If the Germans
succeed in forcing their way into
France that country will take very
little cotton.
But the United States and Great
Britain consume about ten million
bales, and could easily increase their
consumption to twelve million. Trade
with Great Britain will be unimpeded,
so we see that at worst the war will
cut off only twenty per cent of the
demand.
If the Southern planters who can
afford to hold their cotton will hold it
they can keep back this amount for
better prices, and by cooperation, and
with the assistance of the bankers OF
the South, they can hold back more
than enough to meet the decrease in
the demand.
The price of cotton will be lower,
but there is no reason why it should
continue much below the level of
former years. The price of cotton
goods will rise, and this with cheaper
raw material will tempt the millmen
to buy for future needs. We believe
conditions would be greatly improved
by the reopening of the cotton ex-
changes, despite the fact that the
farmers have wished to see them
closed.

Rumor in Belgium has it that Gen.
Otto Won Emmich, commander of the
German forces which tried in vain for
two weeks to capture Liege, had COM
mitted suicide because of his failure.
Other reports said he was killed in
battle while leading his troops. Re-
ports continue to come that some
German officers and many privates
have committed suicide. There had
been nothing, however, to prove that
Gen. Won Emmich ended his own life
Gen. Won Emmich was sixty-six
years old. He Joined the army as
volunteer in 1866 and was promoted
two years later to a lieutenancy. He
took part in the Franco-Prussian war
in 1901. Afterward he was pro-
NOTED through all the grades until he
became major-general in 1901. Whe
he was appointed to the command of
the Tenth Army Corps he was made
a general.

APLAA SUGGESTED FOR HOLDING COTTON

t to sell the cotton upon the production
of the outstanding bonds against it, or
putting up with the trustees a sufti-
cheney of money to redeem the out
standing bonds at par, plus the
charges against the cotton. The orig
inal receipts issued only identify the
cotton and the bonds and in no wise
carries an obligation against the cot
ton, but the bonds issued carry with
it lien on the cotton with the right
in the trustee to sell at the expiration
unless the bonds are redeemed. Now
it is understood that the bonds issued
against this cotton have priority of
payment and are first redeemable, that
the receipt issued to the customer
represents the equity of redemption in
the cotton merely, and should the coz
ton sell in excess of the price fixed by
the bonds, upon presentation of the
customers receipt at the expiration of
a year, this difference less the charges
would be paid to the customer
The trustees shall have a right to
sell the cotton after the expiration of
twelve months from the date of de-
post unless the original customer shall
renew the contract.
The bonds shall be payable at the
initial point of issue and must be
forwarded after twelve months from
date of issue for collection; payment
cannot be forced until the cotton which
secures the same has been sold by the
trustee.
The above is merely an outline of
the proposition. Messrs. Wallis and
Fort are willing to give of their time
and skill in the preparation of the
contract and the working out of the
details without cost to anybody.
They believe that as an emergency
proposition this plan can be put i'll
operation in local way within twenty
four to thirty-six hours by the coop
GRAFTON of good business men, and
after the conference of the represent
atives of the cotton states have gotten
together same can be put upon a
larger basis and enable these bonds
to have greater circulation.

WILL BOND DISTRICT
Hagerman Valley Strong for State
Highway.

The mass meeting held in the opera
ably the largest attended and most en-
thusiastic meeting ever held in the
Hagerman valley. The meeting was
called to order by John H. Jensen
chairman of our district commission.
Fl. A. Stroud was unanimously elected
president, and Frank Tarpning sec
rotary. The meeting was addressed by
Frank Mariner, H. A. Stroud, e. NJ
Bell, John Curran, Edward Sherman
and others. The purpose of the meet
ing was to learn the expression and
desire Of the people Of this valley as to
whether or not bonds should be vot-
struct together with the state, the
statehighway through this section. A
standing vote was taken which re-
suited unanimously in favor of a
bond issue. The people of Hagerman
valley expressed themselves very
clearly on this important matter, and
passed resolution asking the high
way commission to call an election to
vote on a $4,000 bond ISSUE There is
no doubt as to the Hagersan district
voting bonds for the construction Of
the state highway, as the people of
this valley have always been enthus-
iastic over the Oregon Train route.

strong organization and the heaviest
