Concerning Cotton

In a recent article in The Republican it mad vertently stated that the acreage planted to long staple cotton in this valley this year little less than 4OOo Those figures should have applied to the acreage of last year The acreage this year is about 7,4Oo. showing marked increase the industry last year the acreage then greatly increased that of the year before. The long staple industry in this valley is only about five years old with d beginning of only 200 300 It has grown thus remarkably under the fostering of the de- parment of agriculture whose predictions of it's prof itabeness have been fulfilled the satisfaction of growers.
 It is expected that the acreage next year will be nearly if quite three times that of this year The present price of SOa31 cents pound, which by the way was forecast by Dr. Walter T swinge of the department of agriculture last winter, will have a greatly stimulating effect upon the local industry.
 It may be believed that the price will never be lower Long staple cotton is not a war baby" Its price has been affected by the war as is the case with short staple cotton but by the widening of it in this country and the increasing demand for ths particular grade of cotton. The continued develop ment of the automobile industry will insure demand for pound of long staple that be pro- duoed in this country. We doubt whether the world supply of this kind of cotton whose production is fined to a comparatively limited will be able fully to meet the growing demand for it.
 In another article lately, The Republican spoke of the practice of selling cotton and of an nves- tgation conducted by the office of rural organization of the United department of agri- culture showing the losses of growers by that prac- tice. This investigation conducted only in the southern, short cotton growing states. There has been comparatively little seed cotton selling here but il may be that it deprves the growers of con siderable part of his profits
 For instance, seed cotton is selling here today at Sia cents pound. It takes about 1900 pounds of cotton to make 5OO-pound bale of lint So grower would receive for that of cotton S153. the pound the price many of the growers receiving bale would bring $155. At the present higher price of seed the seed in 1900 pounds of seed cotton would bring $95O the total value of the 1900 pounds being Sl745O Deducting from this the cost of ginning say $lO there would be left to the grower s1645O an excess of s115O over the amount he would have re- ceived from the sale of the cotton in the seed.
 We believe that if the cotton producers of this valley study these facts they will be considerably at the end of the One of the troubles the past has been that the middleman has reaped too great share of the profits and the grower too little And one of the encouraging things present the in- creasing local competition for cotton produced.

HIS MOTHER CAME FIRST

While the mobilization of certain Illinois regi- ment was under way women in the persons of rela- tives and friends of the guardsmen flocked the camp in such numbers that necessary work ham pered ThereupOn it is reported, the colonel issued orders that only should be allowed to visit each member of the regiment.
 One of the guardsmen, not yet knowing of the order approached the camp in company with his mother, sister and his fiancee. The guard stopped the party and sterny asked who the women were When told he answered:
 You take in only It's up you to choose"
 The young man looked for moment at the three and then said Mother"
 When is in the air humanity gets down to fundamentals and when this is done mother will get the of it. We do believe that the young guardsman will make husband than if he had chosen his sweetheart.

The Averaqe Voter

Hon. Thomas Campbell is making a splendid and courageous campaign. He is convincing the voters that his sympathies with the average Arizonian not alone with the corporations who may be seeking special privileges and escape from their full share of the burden of taxation; and alone with that branch of organized labor which desires privileges that denied to the individual unaffliated laborer Neither the organization of great wealth nor the organization of great numbers in the view of MT Campbell entities the members of such organizations to privileges which denied to citizens who stand alone.
 The most of the voters of Arizona are morgan ized They belong to neither of the two classes be- tween whom Mir Campbell stands They ask no special legislation for themselves no special treat ment under the laws they exist. They ask to be treated only as their neighbors are treated They would look with something more than suspicion upon the candidate who enjoys the particular favor of the Western Federation of Miners the great corpora tons.
 The average voter is the small home owner the merchant every business and professional man. the unorganized laborer, the cattleman and every>man who expects perform his full duty to the state and expects from the state full and equal protection of his rights and privileges under the law.
 These are the voters who should support MT Campbell and we believe that a majority of them will do It Is question of party politics in Arizona The corporations are neither democrats nor republicans and in the Western Federation of Miners party lines have been entirely dfsregarded It is against the other Class has been arrayed against class the one led by selfish greed the other by designing demagogues. The average voter of Arizona has no place with either.

STUDEbAKER SALES
 INCREASE 188 PIT.

Straw votes and polls are all the fashion during these exciting political days and the automobile industry like wise seems to be no exception to the rule.
 Perhaps the most interesting poll to be made this year showing increases in sales is that recently conducted by the Studebaker corporation. The results, announced through k. T. Hodgkins, general sales manager, show that in fifty-four cities of eleven representa- tive states the sales of Studebaker cars during the first eight months of this year produced an increase of 1SS per cent over the first eightmonths of last year.
 The eleven states were selected in a novel manner The names of all the states in the country were placed in a hat, and the first eleven drawn were used for purposes of the poll After the states were chosen, the cities in each were decided on by a similar process of drawing
 Of the states selected four were To- cated in the east. four in the middle west, and three in the west. They were | further divided into northern and | southern states.
 
 | fiftyfour cities, a grand average was i taken for both states and cities, sixty | five in number and showed a gain of | l6S6 per cent during the eight months ! period, as compared with 1SS per cent for the cities alone.
 The gains in sales. as disclosed by the poll, do not tell the whole story oi our years record" says Mir Hodgkins By that l mean these increases would have been even larger if we had beer able to produce more cars. We hay, sold 75,000 this year as compared witt 45,0O0 last year, and we plan a produc tion of 10000 during 1917. Factory extensions to make thi 1917 output possible, have been author ized. and the construction work ha begun.
 There is only one reason for thes larger facilities, and that is the deman, for the cars. If the present wonderful prosperity continues-and there every reason to believe it will-the oil story of not having enough cars to z around in 1917 should be repeated
 Prosperity such as we are in tn midst of means that those who hay been thinking motor cars are now buy ing them, and those who own cars ar buying new ones."

ALLIANCE MEETINGS
 HALTED BY THE RAIN

The almost constant rain of yester- day afternoon frustrated the plans fol organizing d branch of the National Hughes Alliance in Chandler, the meet ing for that purpose being postponed until Saturday afternoon at , o'clock For the same reason it was thought unadvisable to undertake organization in Mesa last evening. but it is likely that will be done in conjunction with d big meeting to be held there early in the week
 Enrolment at headquarters of the Hughes Alliance increases. and 1t is quite interesting to note the wonderful variety of good reasons the people can think of why they do not want to vote for MT Wilson. These reasons cover something vital to the welfare of every 1 voter who is concerned in anything 1 that can be localized at any point i within the boundaries of a geograph- | ical semi circle a thousand miles wide and curving from the City of Mexico ] to St. Petersburg. It embraces the 1 war questions of this country in theiI relationship to both Mexico and Europe both now and in the peace days to fol 1 low It includes economies, taxes cOmmercialism, manufacturing, agri. culture. labor conditions and nationa pride and perpetuity, which mean! Americanism.
 Add to these many splendid reason, why people do want to vote for NIT Hughes, for his personal merits anC the principles he is known to stand for as exenplified by his record, and a. vouched for by the greatest statesmen of the day. and the list is a formidabl one. IL is little wonder MT Wilson i beginning to wish that the women coul' vote in some of the eastern states, fo he knows his chances with the men ar waning rapidly; but, according to tn women of the country who can vot and who are fighting for suffrage, MT Wilson has sinned away his day o grace with them.
 This makes timely another brief ref erence to the coming visit of the spe cial train, loaded with the foremos representatives of the female sex il America. campaigning for MT. Hughe and demanding his election. The trai
 will be in Phoenix on the goth for a all-day stay. Every woman and al the men who can find time should hea these able women present their caus to the voters of this valley.

Where the People
 May Have Hearing
Paradise Valley Activity

To Editor of the Republican.
 ne work being done by the Para use Nerde Water Users Associatior IS no doubt responsible for inc attan- lloH that the Paradise valley is now IeceNng from intending settlers in IhIs section of our state.
 Chli recently these lands have been withheld from settlement. pend its tne acceptance by the land office oI the re-surVey, ana with the ac- ceptance of this re-survey came the official declaration of the re~onanine or these lands for settlement under the homestead and desert entries
 Many of these new entrymen are enrolling in the Paradise Verde "
 u' assn, for the purpose of aiding
 Tn the activities looking to the se- curing of the flood waters of inc Verde river, for irrigating these lands The prospects for the success of their efforts along those lines are considered extremely encouraging. and that upon the occasion of the third annual convention of the stock holders of the association, to be held at the Knight of Pythias hall on | october q, the review of the past years work will convince the most 1 skeptical that water for these lands | is in sight one problem to be met at ! this convention will be the fact that there is more lands than there is
 water available for, there is embraced in this district about 5000 acres
 and according to the government
 statistics of the average flood flow
 of the Verde river for the last ten
 wears. there will be water available for about 55,000 acres. There is al ready practically 50,000 acres enrolled lin the association. and the secretary is confident that an additional 5,00( acres will be on the list by the time of the convention. In view of these conditions. the directors deem it ad- visahe to accept any application after the filling of the 55.00O. eX- cept, subject to the consideration o
