FOR CONGRESS-.
=. G. HUDSON.

To the Voters Of the Third Congress-
ional District:
l hereby respectfully announce my
candidacy for reelection as your Rep
resentative in the Sixty Fifth (65thl
Congress, subject to the primary to be
held on September 18th.
During the short time l have been
your congressman, have sincerely en-
deavored to serve you faithfully, and
if my efforts and record meet with
your approval, will feel greatly hon
ored and profoundly grateful if you
will give me your support in the COM
ing election. Congress has been in al
most continuous session since you
elected me, and duty required me to
stay here, which prevented me from
visiting you as often as wished. The
Ways and Means committee is now
daily working on revenue measure;
being on that committee, I must re-
main here until the new tax law is
passed. AS soon as Congress adjourns,
or before then, if public business will
permit me to leave, expect to canvass
the District, meet the people personal
ly and talk to them face to face, both
Individually and on the stump.
If reelected, 1 promise to discharge
the duties of the great Office with 1del-
ity and to the best of my ability.
From the depths of my heart, /
thank you for your past kindness to
me. Cordially yours
CHARLES r. CRISP.

THE o. s. FORCES AHEAD.

According to the comptroller of tbs
currency this country continues t.
go ahead despite the croaker and the
kicker.
The comptroller says that the num-
Der of bank depositors in the past five
years in the United States has in
creased SO per cent, or almost doubl-
ed, since 1910. The national banks OF
the country alone have added nearly
5000, 900 depositors during that per-
iod. And Since the state banks and
trust companies have made relatively
larger growth than the national
banks, the number of bank depositors
over the country have increased il
the five year period to over 10,000,00q,
the total number now exceeding owe:
2S,OOO,ooO.
Thus it can be seen from an econ
omic viewpoint this country has
made wonderful strides in the past
five years, for there is no better index
o. prosperity that can be shown than
the opening of new bank accounts.
The opening of bank account shows
increased resources, besides this, the
habit of depositing money in bank
once assumed, tends in few years ID
greatly augment the size of &C
counts.
That old bug-a-boo about hard
times during a democratic admins
tration has been exploded by the
splendid progress made along fnau-
cial lines during the Wilson regime
1t has been effectively wiped out by
the enormous prosperity that now
prevails and which bids fair to con-
tinue.
That admirable reserve banking law
enacted by this administration, and
the tariff have had much to do with
the season of prosperity. The large
increase in bank depositors show that
there has been an increase of wages,
thus adding millions of dollars to the
resources of the country, going to
shown that Americans are making
lots of money and that they are saw
ing large part of it.
This buncombe about a democratic
administration being detrimental to-
business is a fa1lacy that won't hold
water, and the whole country is
agreed on it.

IMPROVE YOUR STAPLE.

Just OF the eve of gathering the
1915 cotton crop it is timely to say
something about the manner in which
it should be handled.
There is strong demand for a
good quality of cotton, and to get this
requires careful handling of the
staple until it reaches the manufac.
turer The need of better staple
vas largely responsible for English
SINNERS promoting large plantations
in the Delta of the Mississippi. 1t is
generally conceded by all growers that
ii is more difficult to produce cotton
at profit now than ever before, this
owing to the increased cost of labor
and other changed conditions. It
therefore behooves the grower TO
change his methods and to take ad
vantage of every means that tends to
improve and increase the profits OF
the industry. To this end it is to the
growers advantage to improve the
staple in every way possible, using
the very best effort to grow a good
staple and to see that the bales ara
not weather damaged before placing
on the market
In order that the best results may
be had there is a strong need o.
standardized warehouses in eaci
county where cotton could be storeC
at a minimum expense and given
maximum of protection, and by al
means the staple should not be allow
ed to get wet before marketing. Fur
Their these warehouses should b.
bonded, and provisions provided a!
would enable the grower to hole
back his cotton until a legitimat.
price could be secured for it. Tht
bane of the cotton industry today i;
/ the manner in which it is exploitec
before it reaches the legitimate con
sumner, and that by people who are O
no benefit whatever to the produces
Or the consumer.
Here in the South cotton is oul
principle money crop, hence an.
steps that can be taken that will ben
eft the industry is well worth consid
erig and trying But, in the absenc,
of thes things, suggested here, ant
under the present conditions it is VI
to the growers to do the best he can
doing akll he can at all times to i'm
prove the staple and put it on the
market in the best possible condition

He is to take with him the plans of the Rock of Gibraltar, which myste- riously disappears on the day of his departure. The only available clue points directly to Dora as the cul- prit.
 It suddenly dawns upon Julian that he has been swept away by the dag zling beauty of this radiant. creature. and that he does not really know any thing about her except what she has chosen to tell him.
