Editor to present a subject .of
he utmost Importance to all our
aeuthern country. There is no
,l0ubt in most Thoughtful minds
but that the South's cotton crop
is going to be worth $50, 900, ,0OO
TO the men who own it nextspring
hut it is worth only $500, ,O00,00

Md it is to save to Southern grow

Ills extra quarter Of a billion dol
lArs that the united energies OF
press and people should now be
directed. The fundamental facts
.sfem to me TO be clear:

hfop of 1916 has started coming
sai the market is still selling on
the basis of prices fixed by last
Nears 100000 bale crop.
{ 2 Those prices must soon be
aiusted however TO fit the con-
htions of a 100000 bale crop
pr probably only 100000 or
III, 900, 900, bale crop and this
ldjusted price ought at the very
east to reach 10 cents pound
(or middling.
AS briefly now, as clear argu-
nent will permit / wish TO point
tut and emphasize the truth OF
hese statements.

lords, with a 100000 bale

ding to happen this year then,

Md this query brings me to an
kher point:
M 2. THE WORLDS CROP
e PROSPECTS JUSTIFY 10
CENTS.
sMr. w. r. G. Harding of th g
sleral Reserve Board early in
summer secured reports from
nsular officials all over the
World indicating a total cut in
.k worlds cotton crop this year
,6.0O0, 900 bales. Egypt and
Atlia reporting radical reduct-
Rhs in acreage. Since that
ne the prospects have further
eclined.
lIBut even il we accept this
iarly over estimate Of the crop

,g 5000, 900 bales bigger than
The Neshoba Democrat. (Philadelphia, Miss.) 1881-current, 1915-09-16
PHILADELPHIA, MISS, THURSDAY, SEPT I6, 1915

900 bale deficit to be drawn
from the surplus.
The facts are however that
even a 12.000,OO0 bale estimate
for the South now seems to high.
This is not simply my view
but the view of many experts
including so conservative and
competent al authority as the
New York Journal of Commerce
which has just declared that
in view of present conditions, the
yield seems likely to be nearer
10. 100000 than 100000 bales
And now comes the Wall Street
Journal ilielf quoting William S
Halliburton of Daniel O'Dell and
Co. as saying "The current seas
on's crop may be as low as 10,
100000 bales It is entirely with
in the reach of present condition
that we shall see II IL cent cot
ton before the end Of the season
These two authorities base
their estimates chiefly on condi-
tionIreports from all over the
South, but might have added
the further testimony that the
South cut it's fertilizer consump-
ton this year from A, 431, 900
tons to 2,636, 900 tons almost in
half and the effect of this cut
will probably make itself most
evident from now on as closer
scrutiny is given the fruitlng
of the crop.
The reader can easily see
for himself therefore, that if
we have only a 10000, 900 bale
crop the factories of the world
would utterly drain the market
dry, leaving it subject TO such
conditions as occurred a few years
ago when speculators carried
prices to IL and 20 cents pound
And now having pointed out
that twelve cent prices are justi-
fed because the 1915 crop is Ger.
tainly 5000, 900 and possible g.
600, 900 bales short of the worlds
demands, meaning that factories
aud munition factories will con-
sumo all the present yield with
the greater part it not all the
worlds visible surplus / also wish
to call attention to the fact that

insures good will" he seems to for
get that "our religion" may not Inn
press the other side. A little talk
with Belgian or Polish peasant
may change mis- mind. Has Mr..
Bryan no locks on the doors OF his
private home? If he had to cross a
frontier infested by wild beasts or
savage men would he trust altogether
to his religion and upright life to win
the confidence of the tiger or the
savage?
And when ne breads the possibil-
ity of our people engendering "a
false idea OF honor" he fails to dis
tinguish between training men to fit
them for perfect citizenship, and that
other training in which Is imbued the
idea that conquest shall follow con-
quest until native land shall domin-
ate the world by force of arms. When
our great Civil war closed and the
soldiers north and south silently
merged back into the ranks of peace
and rejoicing took up their work,
they showed the difference between
our republic and all other nations in
the character of her men. AS to
the presidents plan, that will be for
the wisdom of the nations represen-
tatives to consider. And they should
call in eminent sailors and soldiers
to help them; more, they should call
in shrewd business men to help and
lastly some great railroad men, to
help direct where army and naval
stores, ammunition, ETC., could in an
emergency be soonest transferred to
needed points.
We wish, too, that there might be
a provision looking to the elementary
| training of all the country's young
men in the art and practice Of Tar.
That schooling for year would be
better for them than any other years
schooling, in training them for citi-
zenship and for the worlds competi-
ton in every direction .-Goodwin's

1.-THE Presidents Plan

There is no occasion for becoming
hysterical over what is termed THE
Presidents Plan" for better prepar
ing our country against possible at
tack. All the world knows that the
United States wants no territory that
is possessed by any other power. At
the same time strong powers know
that to attack the United States any
nation would have to fight long
way from its own shores and that
there would be other obstacles in the
way.
The most probable danger Is that
when the present war is over in Eu-
rope, some power, secured, disappoint-
ed and angry, may try to gain a
foothold somewhere in Spanish Am
erica, which would make 1t neces-
sary to go to the defense of the pow
er threatened. But that danger Is
remote, because, first, the foreign
war is not over, and second, we sus-
pect that The Hague congress will
have to be the final arbiter, and that
the terms of peace will preclude any
future war of conquest. But in all
that there is no argument that is
tenable against our nation taking the
natural precautions against attack !;
for the unexpected is what often hap.
pens.
Whether the Allies or Teutons win
the winning power will be aggressive
and probably insolent in victory
Should the result be a drawn battle
then all would be soured and liable
to be aggressive and possibly insol
ent. And the American people
should not be made to sleep on un
easy pillows because Of them.
The arguments of Mr.. Bryan are
not worth much consideration. The
increased taxation which he antici
pates would be but insurance money
and would not amount to one tith'
of the cost of one months war
When he declares that:
'If there is any truth in our reli
gion a nation must win respect al
an individual does, not by carrying
arms, but by an upright, honorable
course, that invites confidence ant
