COTTON FACTS AND FIGURES
The Cotton Crop--The Short age. l5ct. Price Predict ed. An Interesting Letter From a
 Helena Cot
 ton Man

Dear Sir:
 We have so many letters ask ing us our opinion of the cotton market, that it occurs to us a letter to the public would be of interest.
 We wish it distinctly under stood at the outset that what we write is our honest opinion. We are not endowed with the gift | to forecast the future with cer- tainty, we are glad we are not, for it would keep us in trouble all the times and deprive us of that pleasure which uncertain ties afford.
 We predicted freely early in August. that before the people had any cotton to sell from this crop, the price would be well above the 10 cent mark.
 Our predictions have been fully verified and cotton is sell ling in Helena today for common and benders 13la cts. to 15 cts. and staples from 16 to 20 cents. As to the future course of the market, it is our opinion that the market will continue to ad- vance till common cotton will bring 15 cents or more. Of course we will have some temporary set backs' in the market, just as we have seen in the past few days decline of 80 points, but it only took tv c days for it to recover and ad- vance 100 points.

WITH WEEKS 70 SPARE.

A Petrograd dispatch says the new
Russian railway from Petrograd to
Ekaterina has been completed. The
announcement is of general interest
in this country, for it is testimonial
to the efficiency of American engin-
GERS.
Last winter Russia's only available
seaport, Archangel, was icebound,
and 1t was decided to build a railroad
across 500 miles of country made up
chiefly of swamps. The engineers
were given six months to complete
their task, for Russia short summer
would not permit construction work
during longer period. That meant
100 miles of new track per month
But the American engineers won with
three weeks to spare.
1t was tremendous undertaking
and Its successful outcome lends ad-
ditional luster to Americans who do
things. The engineers began their
battle with Russian swamps and
wilderness with characteristic Amer
ican energy, and they pushed on
toward success with the same spirit
that crisscrossed the American plains
with bands of steel.
The new railroad will be of tre-
mendous advantage TO Russia, for Il.
will give the cars country an open
winter port through which to secure
munitions.-Oregon Journal.

WHY THE WOMEN LOST.

1t will be long time obviously
before equal suffrage for women viii
be common to all the states. The
effete and prejudiced East will have
none of it. 1t is hardened in its ways
and deaf to sentiment, reason ant
justice. 1t is more. 1t is fearful O.
what may happen If women shat
have real say in government.
The politicians, including the party
men, do not want suffrage because
they have learned that women ar
not to be controlled or influenced
generally through party.
The liquor interests are opposed t.
suffrage because they are alarmed
about prohibition. or strict regula
ton. They are supported by thu
grand army of buns who want M
women to be on q political equalit,
with them. They deserve no othel
equality, thank heaven.
The reactionaries, and the con
servatives as a rule are opposed t.
suffrage because the women are sus
pected of radicalism.
Many men who do not belong t.
any defined social or political grouI
are down on suffrage because the,
are selfish and secretly regard wo
men as their interiors.
The East is benighted and appar
emily incurable. But let the womer
cheer up. They deserve political sue

MORROW COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
Thursday, November IS, 1915.

Morrow County won great distinc-
ton at the recent Manufacturers &
Land Products Show held in Port
land, by winning the grand prize over
% other counties In the state exhib-
iting. Morrow County is said to be
the only county at the show which
made special feature of any one dis
play and which gave comprehensive
idea of the agricultural and livestock
resources within its boundaries
Much credit for our victory should be
given W. w. Smead, whose sole eff
forts were responsible for the excel
ent results. The exhibit of wool a
the Morrow county booth caused ia
vorable comment. Our city friends
had begun to lose sight of the fac
that this county is one OF the banner
wool producing sections Of the North
west, this. perhaps because we havf
been persistent in carrying off the
agricultural honors from year te
year. We have, indeed, a great coun
ty, and the diversiflcatioa of indus
tries is making it the greater.
