COTTON WILT AND HOW TO COMBAT IT
Government Experts Fighting Disease That Costs $1O,OOO,OOO a
 Year.

Washington, Jan. 12.-Ten million dollars year is conservative esti- mate of the damage caused in South ern cotton fields by cotton wilt and root-knot. To help to reduce this heavy loss, the department of agricul- tuTe has issued farmers bulletin 625, describing the two diseases and the best methods of combating them.
 Cotton Wilt is most general in eastern South Carolina, southwestern Georgia, southeastern Alabama, and central Louisiana, although it is found in the remaining portions of these state and in scattered districts in most of the remaining cotton grow ing states.
 As a result of many experiments by the department, it has been found that the large boil cottons are gen. erally more subject to wilt than the small boiled varities. The develop ment of wilt-resistant strains requires breeding for several years. Mass se- lections from apparently resistant strains of existing commercial varle- ties will not suffice. The principal resistant Upland cotton are the Dill lion. the Dixie and the Modella. Tn addition, several hybrid resistant strains are being bred to produce larger boil, longer lint, and higher percentage of lint than the Dillon and Dixie. Other partially wilt-resist- ant varieties that have been develop ed by individual farmers are the Sam Wood and the Covington Toole.

The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the
 GALATIANS.
CHAPTER

Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neith- CT by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)
 2. And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Gala tia:
 8. Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
 4. Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:
 . 5. To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
 6. marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you ln- to the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
 7. Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
 8. But though we, or, an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preach ed unto you, let him be accursed.
 9. As We said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
 10. For do I now persuade men. or God? or do seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
 il. But 1 certify you, brethren, that

the commission is as much an enemy to them as snake is to human being. Their claim that available capital at the service of the road5 ,s lessening is disputed by figures, which show steady increase since 1887. But they continue their walls neverthless until story Of one of them praising the commission would be as rare as story Of T worm fight ing hen.
 Would you. MT. Railroad Boss, want to do away with the commission and return to the dreary days of ruinous rates before the commission was established?
 Of course you wouldn't. Then quit your "hollering."

The Dawn of Christianity
 As Described In THE NEW TESTAMENT Translated from the Original Greek

the gospel which was preached o1 me is not after man.
 12. For I neither received It or man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
 13. For ye have heard of my con- yersation in time past in the Jews re- ligion. how that beyond measure | persecuted the church of Goa, ana wasted it.:
 If. And profited in the Jews re- ligion above many my equals Ill mlne own nation, being more exceedingly jealous of the traditions of my fathers 15. But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother 5 womb. and called me by his grace.
 16. To reveal his Son in me, that might preach him among the heatnen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
 r. Neither went I up to Jerusa- lem to them which were apostles pe- fore me: but I went into Arabia, ana returned again unto Damascus. IS. Then after three years 1 went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, anu abode with him fifteen days. 19. But other of the apostles saw I none. save James the Lords brother.
 20. Now the things which 1 write unto you, behold, before God, lie not.
 21. Afterwards 1 came into the re- gions of Syria and Cillcla;
 22. And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:
 23. But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now prescheth the faith which once he destroyed.
 "A. And they glorified God ln me.

WAR "NEWS, OyEKDOyE.

The external European record of claim and counter-claim is getting on the nerves of all sensible people. Insignificant gains that cannot pos sibly have bearing on the outcome of the war are heralded with all the pomp of tremendous event. It's all getting very tiresome. When some thing really big happens in the war. doubtless, everybody will be interest ed, but this drivel handed about for the last month IS causing the pubic weariness. Signs or this are in ev.- dence on every hand
 Once the Mexican ebieftainss, and their factions and their doings got columns of space every day; now they are scarcely heard of. In fact, it is doubtful if the public at large has an lota of interest left for the kind of news Mexico produces.
 In Europe the thing from a news end is being overworked in the same way. Everybody has made up his or her mind that the war is the most ter rible in history, that it was an un- necessary war, and all hope it will soon end. And likewise, everyone is interested in any big happening con- nected with it.
 But as for the chit-chat, flub-duD and plain lies freigaling the cables enough.

 PROSPERITY
RAILROADS AND THE I. C. c.

Railroad magnates are doing iot of thumb-twisting just now and some of them guardedly voice sentiment that the recent rate increase shou.i nave gone a little further. From this it might be surmised that they be- Ilieve in getting it all while the get ting is good. ' t'*{
 There is no doubt that the public mind is more inclined to concede the justice of the pleas of the railroads at present than at any time in genera tion. Said railroad magnates are aware of it. They intende to profit by it as much as they can. Probably ID one can blame them, but the brakes are still working on the line that leads to the public pocketbook
 The temper of the railroad chiefs is shown in their desire to boost passenger fares and their contention that freight rates in many sections of the country are below what they ought to be-" It is even suggeste! that the Western, Southwestern and Southern roads appear before the interstate commerce commission and lay in claims for their sections, now that the Eastern roads succeeded in carrying home the bacon after fight lasting decade.
 Probably this would be done at once were it not for the fact that rail road managers still believe that the interestate commerce commission is natural enemy of the railroads, and that caution must be exercised in approaching that august body in order not to get it up on it's launches and make concessions out of the ques- tion.
 It may be we'll here to analyse the relation of the interstate commerc } commission to the railroads. It was created as q weapon against the rail- roads at time when such body was dire need. At a time when the principle of "all the traffic can bear" was in vogue, and the public and shippers were innocent bystand- CTS that were getting robbed with remarkable facility. the commission came as boon to the naticn, though railroad magnates at the time in one voice walled that the railroads would be ruined in less than a year. Even such an acute observer as James l.. Hill joined this anvil chorus of dis aster.
 But the ruin of the railroads dil not materialize In fact, it was I'm possible to ruin them any more than they were running themselves. Ruin ous rate wars were demOralizing the business: rebates to favored shippers were running those honest shippers not on the inside with traffic mana gers; freight was being hauled al huge losses between points where competition was keen and at extra OTulAdIiiy Hisu rates uetweoh polht' where there was no competition.
 With the creation of the commis sion in 1887 these conditions were gradually mended, until today tho only competition between railroad' that is discernible to the naked eyt is that of service. Prices are uniform but the roads do compete in speed service and equipment. It is saif that some roads run eight high-clas: trains where two would do, but tn public isn't the loser in this respcc and isn't worrying.
 Yet railroad magnates still argue

FORMIDABLE STRUCK
 ABAFT THE MAGAZINE
Declare Survivors Who Have Beer Brought Ashore at Brixlam,
 Devon. England.

Brixham, Devon. England, Jan. ?. Via London, 5:15 D. m.-Survivors of the British battleship Formidable, which went down in the English Channel yesterday after having struck. mine or been torpedoed by German submarine, have been brought ashore here.
 They relate that the warship was struck abaft the magazine. The ex- plosion was terrific, but the magazine was not reached. Had this also been blown up the ship would have foundered without there being time to save anybody
 As the water rushed in the men on the Formidable hurried to the deck. They found that the vessel also had a heavy list to starboard. The small boats were sent out. A cutter foundered and the men in her were drowned. A launch and a pinnace succeeded in getting away. Almost all the oars were broken in trying to prevent the small boats from being dashed to pieces against the side of the ship by the. tremendous seas running. Captain Loxley and his signal men were still on the bridge when the battleship keeled over and went to the bottom.
