Praise for West
The newspapers are showering
praises upon Florida's attorney gem
eral, Hon. Thomas F. West, for the
many notable victories he has won for
the state in the highest courts of the
land. He has never yet lost a case;
on the contrary, he has won thirteen,
most of them before the United States
supreme court, and all of them were
of national interest. The brilliant
successes he has achieved have already
started his friends to advocating him
for governor four years from now

A VOTE OF THANKS.

At the head of the social column
the Times Recorder uses a piece Of
poetry each day, and it has been found
to prove quite attractive for many
people who enjoy few lines in the
afternoon and on Sunday morning.
Poetry is musical, and its sweetness
is an expression of grandeur not even
lest in this busy whirl of commercial
ism.
But few lines have caught our
eye, which we give to the editorial
page, they coming from the gifted pen
of Dan G. Bickers, on the Athens, Ca,
Banner:
In Anysort of village there was held
one summer night
A convention of the people; there
were speeches neat and bright
In appreciation hearty of the men who
made the town
Resolutions complimentary-from the
mayor clean on down.
Toward the ending of the meeting one
old citizen arose,
Cleared his throat and wiped the
Precipitation deity from his
nose,
Said: 1--WE got little matter /
would bring up, if you please,
An amendment to the motion to ex-
press our thanks to these
I'D include the weekly paper, that
we've read year in and out,
IL resolution hearty that you'll
think is queer, no doubt,
An appreciation proper to the editor
/ urge
Who has chronicled the happenings
from the babe-cry to the dirge;
Who has published all the items of
our families and folks,
From obituaries, marriages and meet
ings, through to jokes.
Here's Resolved, That we most
highly recommend him without
Stint
That we thank him most sincerely for
the things-he doesn't print.

RATHER SIGNIFICANT.

The New York Independent is a
weekly publication given to ministry
to the more highly cultured and ed
ucated class. For that reason there
is much in its pages that cause
wrinkling of brow to readers of the
common class. When Justice Hughes
was nominated it rather strenuously
espoused his cause. Several editorials
in unblemished English set forth the
desirability of his candidacy. They
were unmistakable in their trend,
very calm and conservative in tone,
carrying evidence of unpartizan con-
viction. The Independent is the org
an of the best financial enterprises
of the metropolis, having the privil-
eye of advertising the propositions of
such to the investing public. What
it admits to its advertising pages is
generally considered to be an en-
dorsement, so carefully are these
statements scrutinized.
The issue of the current week is
altogether devoid of editorial refer
ence to the candidates and not a
single contribution bears any allus-
ion to them. Fishing, Music, a Neu-
trail Conference relative to the Euro
pean war and charming essay by
Cora Harris furnish the pabulum for
! its readers. But an announcement is
made that two very eminent scholars
are going to present articles on Both
sides of the Campaign" advocating
the selection of Wilson and Hughes
This looks like trimming. " also
gives place on its inside cover for
a strong full-page advertisement OF
the Woodrow Wilson Independent
League signed by twenty-seven infiu-
entail men in the fields of Banking
Insurance, Transportation and Bust
ness. 1t calls for men who believe
on voting on accomplishments, not on
labels Does all this look like re-
yiral of the all-powerful Mugwumr
element especially in the great state
of New York?

ASK UNCLE SAM.

You may not believe in paternal
government and doubtless don't, but
did it ever occur to you that your
Uncle Sam comes very near giving
you this kind of a government?
There is hardly anything that his
subjects want but what he will supply
or give information as to where it
can be had.
If you want to know how to build a
chicken house, how to raise tomatoes,
or to fertilize a field. How to raise
gin seng for profit, to plan farm
house, lay cement walk or how to
better care for your ailing baby, all
you have to do is to write your con-
gresham at Washington for a bulletin
on what ever subject you want in
formation on and it will be promptly
forthcoming. Or you may write to
any of the many bureaus, agricultur-
al, industrial, educational, no matter
what, and you will at once secure
what you have asked for with your
Uncle Sans blessings.
Uncle Sam is a great uncle and
believes in living up to his name and
reputation. He is a member of the
family and believes in doing his part
and more. He is interested in all of
your problems and stands ready at
all times to become your adviser and
help you solve the knotty questions
that are continually arising over how
to do this and how to do that. There
is reason of course why he is so will
fng to do this, and the reason is, that
when he assists you he helps himself.
Being a member of the family,
partner so to speak, the greater sue
cess he can help you become, the
greater will be his share Of that sue
cess in the way of taxes.
Yes our government is somewhat
paternal, and we are glad of it. Why?
because it makes of us the greatest
nation on earth.
Therefore if you are puzzled or in
doubt about anything you have in
hand go to Uncle Sam for advice, and
he thankful that in this much at least
we have allowed our democracy to
become paternal.

COTTON REPORT UNAVOIDABLE.

The expected has again happened
and the predictions of the Times
Recorder are justified when the state
ment was made some weeks ago that
the August report on the condition OF
the cotton crop would be very mater
tally lessened. The report of August
1st shows that we were right in our
position, and in the advice we have
been giving the farmer by telling M.
to hold on to the staple.
On the strength of the report Tues
day cotton made the spectacular
advance of $1.75 per bale, and held it's
own throughout the day.
The report of August 1, reckons on
the production of 12,916,000 bales
crop for this year as against the re-
port that came out the first of July
and gave an estimate of 14,265,1o0
bales for the year 1916. This report
just made in our opinion is over
drawn or exaggerated and we predict
that the next crop report will be
considerably lessened over this. Our
position therefore holds good in that
the farmer will be very foolish to
hurry with the sale of his cotton.
Every indication is in favor of a
much higher price than now Expert
cotton men are of the opinion that the
1916 cotton crop will sell, that is some
of it for as much as 20 cents per
pound the highest price within the
knowledge of most of our citizens.
The most conservative cotton men
are of the same opinion, not as to the
extreme high price, but for a much
better price than now These take
the position that the cotton supply
for the world is practically exhaust
eG. and as the world must have cotton,
and We are using more of the staple
now than ever before in the history
OF the country it must necessarily
bring much higher price.
The report shows IS per cent of a
normal crop as compared to 1878 at
tie close of June, and the present re-
port coming so soon after the recent
aDd disastrous rains it stands to-
reason cannot be very accurate. So
We predict that when the next re-
pert comes out the present one will
be decreased at least five per cent.
Don't be in a hurry to sell Mr..
Farmer, you are going to have your
inning, and it is up to you to play the
game for all it is worth while the
is yours.
