The weevil who had been exiled for
several seasons, found his way back
to this territory, accompanied by sew

ain slapped an absolute contraband
decree on cotton. The gulf storm Of
August carried salt water as far In
land as this city, blighting hundreds
of acres of cotton. The heavy rains
created several species of rot.

fertilizers and few dozen other
calamities relieved the monotony Of

MISSISSIPPI SOON TO
BE MUDDIEST RIVER

Clinton, Aug. %. The Missouri
river, long famous for it's deep coffee
color and heavy deposit of mud, is hav-
ing strong rival for honors in mud
carrying this year, with the Missis-
sippi as the contender. During the
whole summer, the Mississippi has
been of deep brown color and filled
with heavy mud deposit which has
not allowed the water to clear for even
short space of time. OF course, the
"mudiness" varies but, during the
worst periods, the river has been so
dirty that bathers lost part of their en-
thusiasm for the daily plunge and
fishermen found poor luck in Turing
the elusive bass.
The explanation undoubtedly lies in
the unusually heavy and long continu-
ed rainfall which causes the many lit
tie tributaries to bear constant loads
of mud into the mighty Father Of
Waters"

. MONTEREY CONSUL
PHIL c. HANNA THINKS THAT
MExICANS REGARD AMERl.
CANS AS FRIENDS.

Waterloo, Aug. 23. That the better
class of the people In Mexico are tired
of fighting against one another and
that both factions regard the Ameri.
cans as their best friends are the
statements of Consul General Phil G.
Hanna of Monterey, who has come
here for short rest He was born
here in 1885, but this Is his first visit
in three years. His sisters, Mrs. Edith
Cotton and Mrs. Emily George, reside
on the Hanna homestead.
There has been much fighting IN
and around Monterey" says Mr.. Han
ma, "but prospects are now brighter
for peaceful settlement. The country
has been devastated and few crops
have been planted. The people ere
short of food and their clothing Is poor.
The American consulate has been ac-
tive in feeding and clothing destitute
Mexicans, who regard US as their
friends"
Because of his government position
Mr.. Hanna cannot discuss political
conditions nor diplomatic relations
with this country, but he Is firm in the
belief that the trouble can be ended
without force.
