Too Much Cotton Planted

JACKSON, Miss, May z3.-An in
crease of from Is 20 per cent in the
cotton acreage this spring is being pre-
dicted. This increase: will be made in
spite of the fact that in almost every
community in the south farmers have
held meetings and passed resolutions
calling upon the farmers to reduce the
cotton acreage, cut down the output
and keep up the price. 1t appears
many farmers, believing the acreage
would be reduced by their neighbors
and that in consequence short crop
would be produced and good prices
would prevail, have spent every energy
to plant more cotton than usual.
More cotton will be planted in the
boil weevil districts than has been
planted in several years, as farmers
have learned how to successfully cope
with the pests.

NEW ALPHABET FOR
CHINESE is INVENTED

SAN FRANCISCO, May 23.-Dr. T.
F. Lam, the Chinese Cadmus, one of
the most famous Oriental scholars of
the world, is in San Francisco, waiting
for the departure of the steamer China
to take him home.
Laboring for six years, DR.. Lam has
wrought what will be a revolution in
the written language of China.
He has created an alphabet of Sc
characters. He has supplemented this
with system of shorthand, the char
acters of which closely resemble those
used by American stenographers. The
new alphabet bears no resemblance at
all to the Roman letters of the English
alphabet, but is essentially Chinese in
appearance. A telegraph code Of dots
and dashes completes his labors.

SOLID Line OF U. S. TROOPS
TO GUARD MEXICAN BORDER
FORCES WITHDRAWN FOR DISTRI-
BUTTON ALONG BOUNDARY
Will Close Mexico In From the Outside
World will Leave Sufficient
Force in Mexico to Cope
With Bandit Force

Ell PASO, May 23.-From Browns
vile, Tex, to Yuma, Ariz., American
troops will be SO placed along the
border in sufficient numbers to COM
pletely close Mexico in from the
world. At Colonia Dublan a sufficient
force of Americans will be left to
look after the bandit element and
continue forays into the mountains in
search of Villa and his men.
This, it is understood, is the plan
of the United States in the readjust-
ment of the border situation, with a
view to preventing more border
raids and to give the Carranza gov
eminent an opportunity to show it's
good faith in handling the northern
Mexico troubles.
The greater portion of Gen. J. J.
Pershing's $4,000 men is being with
drawn to the border. General Gavira,
Carranza commander in Juarez,
claimed to have advices from Casas
Grandes that the entire American
force was moving to the border, leav-
ing no troops in western Chihuahua,
and that Carranza soldiers already
have occupied the bases abandoned
by the Americans.
Along the border, wherever there
is a place where Mexicans might at
tempt invasion of American territory
troop patrols are to be maintained by
the American army, it is claimed
and a Gordon of steel is to be thrown
around Mexico, which will force the
Carranza government to rely upon it's
f0
conditions in the country.
The Sixth cavalry, just out of Mex
leo, is being moved on special trains
from Columbus to the Big Bend coun-
try.
Because Of the danger of attempts
being made by Mexicans to wreck the
troop trains, censorship on the time
OF departure from Columbus and the
destination of the trains was put into
effect. The broad sweep of the bor-
der around the Big Bend, the isolated
location and the many thousands of fat
cattle on the ranges make that par
ticular section a constant temptation
to Mexican brigands. The Sixth cav
airy, 1t is understood, will patrol the
Big Bend border, with orders to pur-
sue bandits whenever it is, necessary.
There is no Improvement in the
Mexican situation as regards condi-
tions in the interior, and conditions
in the country adjacent to the border
are growing worse, according Ia
Americans coming out of Mexico
Hatred of Americans, plots for re-
venge for sending American troops
into Mexico and conspiracies to carry
banditry into American territory are
said to be increasing among Mexi-
cans, with the revival in a general
way of the old report that Carranza
and Obregon are again at the break
ing point.

PROUD OF UNCLE SAM

PROUD OF UNCLE SAM
If l were ashamed of the old demo-
cratic party
And mine own native land;
If l were twice or thrice forty,
For conscience sake I'd lend help
ing hand
And show the people in practical
way
That I was a real sure enough man
And that 1 mean just what I say.
To write, blow and swear is easy
enough,
Provided some gritty little cuss
Don't up and call your bluff,
But the man who wins with sword,
pen or hoe
Is built of cleaner, harder stuff
While sitting in lowly clubhouse,
Or shanty rooted habitation,
On rotten log down to the '.jungle
up"
Or your ragged turkey at the sta
ton,
While waiting for side door pull
man,
Or the blind baggage, the bo's OBJ
servation,
Its dead easy to criticise
Wilson and the administrations;
But to leave Fluffy Ruffles
And risk his life,
To some of us isn't much temptation.
The Father of His country
Would hardly think the boy sane
Who would deliberately pull Old Glory
down,
And say "of you 1 am ashame,
While trampling her sacred folds on
foreign ground.
But after all he is not so much to
blame
For throwing out a little bait
To tale in the patriotic game;
Since he's awful lonesome,
And thinks he may get one so tame
She will put on the matrimonial
hobbies
And he may ever after call her his
