The Still on the Square.

Last Friday morning half past six.
When the sun was shining bright,
julie and Earn came driving in
With a still they got that night.
They sat 1t on the Court House lawn.
Where all the folks could see.
And everybody came and looked.
Because they knew twas free.
On and on the people came,
The whole live long day.
And talked about how mean II was
To take their rights away.
They took the cap within their hands,
And viewed the still with pride,
And thought how sweet it might have
been,
If julie. when sick. had died
The good Lord saved him for a cause,
We made him County Sheriff,
His aim in life is to break up
And run such crimes to earth.
One thing we know as we move on.
And IL fills our hearts with pride,
That every man who loves his home,
Is eternally on his side.
Press on with courage with your
work,
We know you're doing right,
Stand up. be brave and manly too,
And the good will help you fight.

In spite OF the fact that the census
report on the amount Of cotton ginned

tho pressure of contracts for pront TAX
,ne and short selling was suhicient TO
cause a loss Of the entire gain Of q
dozen points or so established after the

closed practically unchanged from the
tnal prices Of Tuesday.
The report showed 0.711.oo0 bales,
which was practically In line With ex-
pec,atlons. About the only surprising
feature Of the report was the light GIN

publication OF the Government estimate

centred around figures Of 11.400.0 900
bales. The estimate of Miss Giles on
Monday was 1l.3o0.o 900 and Clement
Curtis & Co. Of Chicago yesterday raised
their estimate TO 100000 bales.
The census figures Of yesterday. how
syer, do not point to a yield of more
than 100000 bales " statistical cal.
citations based on the ginning figures
are 10 be trusted. The fairest compari-
son that can be made with this cotton
crop OF any other crop 10 that Of 1910,
Up 10 September IS the South had
sinned 100000 bales. against 2.Sl2.0o0
in 1910. In the period from September
rs to October IS there vas . falling
N this year Of :ss,0o0 bales compared

IN was 2S5.000 bales. From Novem.

increased by $1,000 bales. In the period
from November IL to December 1 the
falling Off was 2 5000 bales. Thia
makes a total falling of Of l.oi5.ooC
bales since September IS.
Il is hardly reasonable. therefore,. q
expect that as much cotton will b
