On Monday of this week fifty
three money orders were issued
at the post office here, and thirty
nine of them were for liquor.
If we had the Regular Army
of the United States and the
National Guard of all the States
to protect us hourly for the next
fifteen years we should like to
60 down to the station and get
the name on each package of
liquor as it comes in and pub
lish the entire list. When we
gave out list of all classes, in
Guiding some of the good old
Amen corner brethren,we should
expect trouble and lots of it.
The stronger the guard the safer
we would feel after such a list
should 90 out.

The cotton market has been
playing some strange pranks for
few days, and the bu, ers who
were loaded have been looking
about fer warehouse room.
The writer has expressed the
hope that the local buyers NAV
sell out at or above cost and that
The market would then stay on
the decline until the 1O.cen1
notch is reached again. Of
course, we do not expect to see
this, but It seems to us that this
would aid in more than one
way some who are to suffer be-
cause of high priced cotton. A
steady decline in the price of the
fleecy staple would have a tend
ency TO check the soaring prices
of all other commodities If
would also prevent wild
scramble for land TO plant
IN cotton next spring. Sup
pose cotton should cling to
the lucent round until spring.
how many farmers would plant
enough corn, peas and other
food and feed crops to supply
them? Suppose also that everv.
thing should be planted in cot
ton and cultivated on a 2O.cent
basis and then the price should
De lO cents. The long faces of
l9l4 would be short and sym
metrlcal compared with what
you would see where the bland
smIIe has been worn this fall.
Yes, we would like to see the
price of cotton come right on
down to 10 cents by February
first.
