TO the Senate the bill by Senator Hughes,

The measure makes such products Of
convicts labor subject to the laws of the

such product from interstate commerce
IL recognizes the right Of the State TO
exclude them from its borders without
burdening interstate commerce.

SOUND ADVICE,

The following remarkable address
was delivered by Walter Damrosch
conductor of the Symphony Society
OF New York, to the S5 musicians
belonging to 13 different nationali-
ties. who assembled recently at
Aeolian Hall for the first rehearsal
OF the season. We can all fird food
Tor thought in what the noted
musician had to say The address
WAS as follows:
Before we begin the rehearsal /
wish to express to you ny great
pleasure in seeing you all here 20
bctner. and in the fact that we ar.
all row going to begin winter of
hard Mork, which will enabi. us tD
tale our minds away from this ter
rthle tragedy which is being enact
e! in Europe today.
'As we have about thirteen ma
tlonalities represented in this or
chestra, including all those now at
war with each other in Europe, and
as we shall be together in close COM
panionship in New York and on tour
for the next six months, it NAV not
be a mistake for me to say a few
words to you regarding the advis-
ability OF maintaining a coherent
neutrality.
Il know that we can continue to
live together with perfect good will
and friendliness If we agree to re-
member the following:
First, we are all Americans, no
matter where we were born.
Second, do not let us discuss
among ourselves as to who first
Started the row.
Third, do not think that all the
patriotism and bravery demonstrate
ed In this war are to be found only
In the country in which you were
born.
Fourth. do not think that all the
culture and civilization of our time
comes from the country of your
birth.
Fifth, let us thank God that wa
are Americans, and that we live in
country which Is today free from
such terrible slaughter.
Finally, though this war and its
attendant horrors, misery and desc
lation Will continue to occupy our
minds and sympathies until the end
OF the struggle, / hope 1t will only
engender In our hearts, not anger or
rancor, but arouse pity and a real
desire to do our share toward allie
waiting the awful misery which the

THE ONLY WAY TO DO TT.

III the farmers want anything like
fair price for their cotton crop
next year. they will have to reduce
greatly the amount of the staple
planted next spring. And to bring
about this reduction they should
have the cooperation Of merchants,
bankers and all others who usually
assist them with money or supplies
to make their crop. But the mat
ter rests with the cotton growers.
Resolutions passed at mass-meetings
and acts of the state legislatures
having for their object the rednc-
tion OF acreage will amount to little
The farmers must help themselves
and unless they come to a realiza-
tion of the true facts all the resolu-
tions and acts of the legislature will
amount to nothing. Secretary of
Agriculture Houston went to the
crux of the matter when he said re-
Gently:
"The acreage devoted to the next
cotton crop ought to be greatly re-
duced. This is very important, of
course; but the acreage can not be
regulated or restricted by the Con-
gress or the state Legislatures. They
have no authority to la1{slate upon
this object; but the farmers, acting
upon their own initiative, or the
farmers anf merchants and bankers,
acting toeether and for the protec-
tion-0fall, can control the acreage:
the farmers by planting food crops
and making cotton their surplus
crop; the merchants and bankers by
laying down the rule and sticking
to 1t that they will not extend aid in
the way of advances to any farmer
who does not reduce the acreage de-
voted by him to cotton growing:
and the bankers by refusing loans
to farmers and mechants who will
not make such agreement"
