That. however, had nothing to do with the better price is bringing this year.
 short-staple cotton is now selling in Texas for F a pound, against early in the year. The conditions with respect to short-staple cotton very foreidding at the close of last year and in consequence. the acreage throughout cotton states was greatly reduced To that $ attributed the present in the price of short staple cotton.

 The clement of acreage, which is such an influ- entl factor in fixing the price of short staple have nothing do with the price of such cotton produced this valley.

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-Various in- dustrial and special stocks rose to higher levels under the lead of United States Steel, which made a maximum of IF points at 87H. SteeTs advance occurred in the fact of persistent oppo- sitiOn from the professional element which sold stock on the theory that it's rise was being used as a cloak for selling of other representative issues New records were made in Bethlehem steel which rose points to 500, Stude- baker to ITO, American Steel F'oundries to 741h and WillYs Overland to 259 Railway issues lapsed into dullness af- ter a forenoon exhibition of strength.

FORMAL RECOGNITION
(Contipued from Page One)

Mexico, of which Carranza is chief. 1 The United States will be pleased to receive formally at Washington the | diplomatic representative of the de- l facto government. Reciprocally, the United States will accredit repre- sentative to the defacto government as soon as the president has an op- portunity to designate the represen- tatiVe. I will appreciate it if you find possible to communicate this in formation to Carranza at your earl fest convenience" Later Arredondo, in response to a telephone call from Secretary Lansing called at the state department conference. Although without a diplomatic status, he was escorted to the diplomatic anteroom, where the ministers and ambassadors are received, and spent half an hour with the secretary in discussing Mexican affairs
 Several diplomats. among them the Argentine ambassador. the Bolivian and Guatemalan ministers and John Silliman, personal representative of the president in Mexico, called at the Mexican embassy during the after noon and many felicitations came by telegraph messengers.
 Arredondo in a formal statement said:
 The recognition of the government of Carranza is a triumph of the Pan American policy and without a doubt will bring about soon the re-estab- lishment of peace and normal condi- tions in Mexico For this her sister republics and their worthy represen- tatives here deserve the sincere and fro of justice has been done for one of the republics which has been and shall continue to be an integral part of the international American concern.
 Foreigners have and will continue to have the protection to which they are entitled by international law and existing treaties in accordance with international amity. Foreign capital will be welcomed as soon as a decree of amnesty, which Carranza is pre- paring be issued that will permit Nexicans, whose presence in Mexico will not constitute a vital menace to peace and consolidation of the gov ernment, to return from the exile which has caused them to suffer on account of the civil war.
 Railroad and telegraph cOmmuni cations are being re-established as rapidly as possible. The world gen. orally must be a little patient, for reconstruction cannot come in a day"
 Arredondo also gave out a. dis patch received from General Car ranza stating that no Carranza troops had crossed into Guatemala as was reported, and that strict orders had been given to avoid complications on the Guatemalan border.

Rippling Rhymes

COOL NIGHTS

The summer nights a total loss; groan and shriek and pray; We wal low on our beds and weep, in vain we cannot get to sleep until the break of day. And then the milk man comes along and whangs his large and strident gong the errant newsboys scream, the grocer's man is at the door, and all the wheels Of traffic roar, and spoil the morning dream. But in the fall how well we rest. When I've removed my shoes and vest, and to my couch I go, I find myself at once asleep, enjoying rest profound and deep, the kind that children know. For seven hours or so I snOoze, refreshing weary gals and thews from grief and care aIoof; if you would wake me in the night. you'd have to bring some dynamite and blow me through the roof. And in the morn, at half past five, I wake, so glad that I'm alive, that I must sing and dance; I sing and whistle, sound and hale, as I put on my martingale, my shirtwaist and my pance Take all your potions, dope and pills, and throw them in the babbling rilIs; they are no use to men; when one can sleep for seven hours. that little nap restores his power, and makes him young again.

GRAND OPERA

Grand opera is music in a gold set ting. It consists of art, salaries and society in equal parts. Each part is essential. You may have salaries without grand opera. but you cant have grand opera without salaries. Art
 is also necessary. If grand opera was not art, people would laugh when the 250-pound hero embraces the beauti- full young 22O-pound heroine. And, lastly, grand opera without society isn't grand opera at all. It is popular concerts.
 Grand opera is any musical play in
 which the leading character dies in
 the last act. This is necessary. To
 be grand opera, it must be fatal to
 someone. Grand opera heroes and
 heroines are shot, burned. strangIed,
 drowned, walled up alive, thrown
 down wells and fed to the lions. It is
 true that because the supply of hor-
 rible deaths in history had run out,
 The Girl of the Golden Vest has
 only an attempted lynching in it and
 doesn't give the coroner any job at
 all. But then @ good many people
 claim that this production wasn't real
 ly grand opera, but anly grand press
 agent work. It is sometimes hard to
 tell the difference.
 The most noticeable thing about
 grand opera is the music, which never stops. A carefully selected regiment
 of singers oppose a large orchestra for three of four acts. Sometimes the orchestra wins, but generally the singer comes out ahead by q couple of whoops. This necessitates great lung capacity on the part of the soloists, Q ta width of great artists. In order to hold their own against forty violins and three kettle drums, prima donnas must be so powerful that in most cases they have to sing the part of Juliet from a reinforced balcony. To become a grand opera singer requires great skill and tenacity of purpose. One must learn to aviate through the upper register with bird-like clear ness and perfect accuracy while climb ing ladders, embracing lovers, taking poison, being hanged from a barrel and dying in heaps on the cold ground. The singer must also be able to accompany herself with her arms. The priman donna who cannot wigWag with her arms messages readily trans lated as delight. despair hate, envy indifference, suspicion. triumph. 9 pain in the chest, disgust with the administration and an invitation to come around the corner and get kicked, would not draw half a salary.
 All grand opera is made in Europe for American consumption. It is also generally sung in foreign Iangua ges. 1 This is largely because Have a drink Get off my foot!'

RUDOLPH SEES FORDS
 MADE MANY EACH LAY

There better be more Ford cars for Salt River valley folks now, ayers Ed Rudolph, who got back yesterday from trip to the place where they have quantity production down to a science
 To see 1,500 cars made in a day. and then to think of the Phoenicians await Ing delivery, made Rudolph pretty thoughtful so he made a warm talk and got assurance of more deliveries and oftener ones.
 Additions to the Detroit factory will soon raise the production to 2,OOO cars a day. Three shifts of 1000 men each are now being employed there. While away, Rudolph also visited Akro,,'s flrestone plant, where they make 1900 tres a day. Additions to this plant also will soon raise the production to l2,000 tires a day.
