Special Drainage
Election Carries

The special election held in tho
Prairie Gregg drainage district
proved an overwhelming victory
Tor the promoters of better drain
age. The proposition to issue
bonds to the mount of SIS. 900 and
to levy an acreage tax of five cents
an acre on all lands in the district
received II votes, representing an
assessed valuation of so.
while the opposing vote was only
four, representing a valuation of
S., SO. This district is subject
to heavy losses almost annually bv
the flooding rains, and the result of
a good drainage canal, will prac-
tlcally insure the district against
further losses; besides this district
some of the richest land
Known of.

DECLINED PRICE
COTTON BUYERS
MADE YESTERDAY
OF SEVEN and half CENTS
Local Sellers Would Not AC.
Cept Bid

While market conditions in Americas
are about as dull as elsewhere in the
cotton belt, an occasional offer comes
for few bales at price below eight
cents. Warehousemen yesterday de-
clined an offer of I IL cents for
considerable number of bales, pre-
ferring rather to take chances of a
better market ere long. The Liverpool
market is beginning to improve a bit,
with - 1-2 cents offered there for mid
dlings, and Americas dealers think this
encouraging and as pointing to better
prices here ere long. With the return
of good weather the grade of cotton
marketed will show improvement over
cotton picked and ginned during the
recent rainy season.

Business men have firm faith that

country has ever known lies just
ahead. They are not only hopeful but
they are confident. Business in this
country is now suffering undoubtedly
the greatest shock from the widespread
war in Europe. Influences which are
most potent are perfecting arrange
ments to prevent what appeared to b
impending chaos. PROFESSIONALLY, not
many weeks will lapse before the
South's cotton will begin to move
across the Atlantic. The market viii

On tomorrow and Friday a cotton

ENGLAND JUST GETTING
READY FOR FINISH FIGHT
John Bull VIII Wage War 70, Years Necessary and in the
End Will Vanqu,sh Her Enemies. Lord Khchner ReU'e'0s
The Situation in the House of Commons.

London, Aug. 26.-Lord Kitchener
made his first speech as minister Of
war in the house of lords today. He
told his hearers that this war un-
doubtedly would strain the forces OF
the empire and entail big sacrifices.
He laid emphasis on the fact that his
position in the cabinet involved adher-
ance to neither party. He said:
The terms on which l am serving
are the same as those under which
some of the finest portions of our
manhood, now so willingly stepping
forward to join the colors, are engag-
ing That is to say, my term of office
is for the duration of the war or for
three years, if the war should last
longer than that.
No Thought of Quitting.
at has bee asked why this period
as been limited. 1t is because if this
disastrous war be prolonged, and no
one can fortell for a certainty its dur
alton, that after three years of war
others will take our places and see
this matter through.
There will be serious conflicts
which undoubtedly will strain the
forces of our empire and undoubtedly
considerable sacrifices to our people
will be entailed. These will Willingly
be borne for our honor and for the
preservation of our position in the
world and they will be shared by our
dominion who are now sending con-
tingents and giving assistance of every
kind to the mother country.
England Vast Reserve.
while other countries engaged in
this war have under their systems Of
compulsory service brought their full
resources into the field, We, under our
national system, have not been so com
PEELED. Therefore, we still have
vast reserve to draw from the resourc-
IS of both the mother country and the
dOminions.
THE response which already has
