The idea of Federal relief for the
cotton producer is imprecticable be-
cause it will prevent northern spinners
from loading up on southern cotton at
sawdust prices. However adversely
Federal relief for the cotton producer
might effect individual interests, we
feel sure that it would be Of tremen-
dous benefit to the country as whole.

Senator Clifton of Sumter, gave the
newspapers a rap Tuesday, when he
called attention to the fact that sc
many of them are bowling "woe,
woe" to every relief measure sug-
gested, while none of them have the
ability or temerity to propose any
thing themselves. The Sumter sena-
tor evidently forgets how much more
easy it is to tear down than to build

The Federal reserve banking system
has all the elements of workableness
in it, provided the big bankers who
control the finances of the country,
want it to work. Otherwise it will
probably prove as useless as the Aid
rich -Vreeland emergency currency
scheme. 1t will be remembered that
last year, it had evidently been decided
that the price of cotton was too high,
and there was a plan to reduce ii by
the determination Of the New York
banks to let out only limited amount
of currency with which to move the
crops. Secretary McAdoo relieved the
situation by placing large amount of
government money in southern banks
This money was used by the banks
partly for moving the cotton crop and
partly for other purposes; but the sec
retary's action brought the New York
banks to their senses and they let loose
crop moving money in abundance
with the result that cotton continued
to sell at fair price. There are a
number of large private corporation
banks in the country which through
their long established connections and
practically unlimited capital, are more
influential than the reserve banks will
be, especially in the beginning, and as
to how long the full benefit of the re-
serve banks will be retarded by the
strong, old established concerns, is a
question. Neither individuals or cor
porations like to give up power and
prestige once acquired, and we
are not looking for the great banking
interests of the northeast to lay down
before the Federal reserve system until
they are compelled to. Indeed, we
think that Secretary McAdoo is going
to have to give or take several falls
out of somebody before the question is
finally settled on it's merits.

The house spent practically all of
yesterday, debating the bond bill that
had been sent over from the senate
Apparently a majority was in favor of
the bill: but there was more or less
division over the question as to wheth-
er the state should attempt to buy cot =
ton outright or only loan money on
cotton at fixed valuation. The argu-
ment in favor Of loaning is that every
borrower will be interested i'm boosting
the price. and therefore that much
more disposal to reduce acreage.

President Wilson is quoted as saying
that confidence is the only thing
needed to restore prosperity" Maybe
he IS correct; but it Is going to take
something more than confidence to
raise the price of cotton sufficiently
to pay the debts incurred in its pro-
duction.

CONGRESS HELD UP
FiIibuster in the Senate Prevented
Adjournment Last Night.


Senator Smith Of Georgia, leading
the cotton states senator's conducted a
filibuster in the senate last night that
prevented an adjournment in accord
ance with a joint resolution passed by
the house and providing for the ter
mnation Of the session at $50 o'clock
last evening.
The southern senators insisted that
something should be done to relieve
the cotton situation, and throughout
the day by means Of successive roll
calls managed to show up no quorum
until after the adjournment resolution
from the house had died a natural
death.
Senator Smith agreed to the adop-
ton Of the conference on the war rev.
enue bill and the same was signed.
Last night it looked as II the only
way out was recess based upon an
agreement to take up cotton legisla-
ton after the election.

less original.
The cut was of the prevailing ample
Persian, dressing gown variety. The
top part and the long sleeves were of
bold-figured black and white velvet, the
middle section coming to the knees was
of black satin in a heavy quality and
the ripping lower part was of the bro
cade again. 1t was lined with supple
magenta, and was altogether a very
striking garment. Beside it was sort
of cape in canary-colored broadcloth.
At the hip line the material was
the upper part. and from this line a
deep yellow fringe fell over the lower
portion.
The neck was finished with a close
fitting Pierrot ruche of black organdy,
fastening with a crushed yellow rose
The lining was of white, with a small
black figure at intervals. and it was
exhibited over a black and white gown
the skirt formed of series of bias
black and white chiffon ruffles on a
white satin foundation.
With this was a small black velvet
hat. turned up sharply all round with
yellow velvet roses crammed into the
top of it.
Coats and gowns seem to have found
their inspiration in the paintings of the
old masters. with their careful and
beautiful reproduction of old brocade
patterns in the richest colors.
Guests assembling for ball this win
ter may recall a picture by Paul Vero-
nese. with the rich. hanging folds of
sumptuous textile materials. Perhaps
this gorgeousness may inspire a great
modern painting-who knows?

called into the house and delivered into

with bristling row of pins between
her lips, who shipped around ones
neck with a cold, gigantic pair of
scissors and commanded one to pivot

A very gorgeous affair is shown of

Voluminous capes of velvet, lined

Household Hints.

Combs will soon warp and break If
washed with water. They should be
cleaned with a good, stiff, dry tooth
brush or nailbrush.
Washing soda should not be used on
china. as it will take off the gilt. Try
clear, hot water, but not hot enough
to crack the china.
When running dates, figs or raisins
through a food chopper add a few
drops of lemon Juice to prevent the
fruit from clogging the chopper.
To make a tough steak tender rub it
on both sides with vinegar and olive
oil thoroughly mixed and allow it to
stand for two hours before cooking.
The righ way to peel onions is to be-
gin at the root of the onion, peeling
upward, and the juices will not fly into
your eyes.
