HoYNE AND HAHN. -

HOYNE AND HAHN. - Arthur
Hahn is peeved because Mr. Cochran
was fair-minded enough to commend
Mr.. Hoyne's good work as states
attorney. If Mr.. Cochran refrained
from speaking a good word in behalf
of so brave and conscientious a pub
lie servant as Mr.. Hoyne, discerning
readers of The Day Book would not
consider him as impartial as he say VS.
he tries to be.
1t would seem that Mr.. Halm's in
dictment of Mr.. Hoyne is that the
latter has done some splendid work,
but is not entitled to any credit be-
cause, forsooth, he is not Socialist.
If Mr.. Hoyne were a Socialist Mr..
Hahn would sing paens and oficiate
at Mr.. Hoyne's apotheosis, but as he
happens to be Democrat, why. Mr.. ]
Hahn will have none of him.
Mr.. Hoyne can never be a good So
cialist, Mr. Hahn, as he is not in the
least bit class-conscious, and all So
cialists must be that. Mr. Hoyne can
never subscribe to that doctrine, as
he knows no class distinctions in the
performance of his duty-powerful
corporate taxdodgers, political bank
wreckers, crooked labor leaders, cor
rupt police officers, arson bugs, clair
voyants and sluggers all look alike to
him.
If Mr.. Hahn wants his assertions |
to carry any weight he will have to |
specify wherein Mr.. Hoyne has been |
in any way derelct in the perform
ance of his duty. Pending such |
specifications on the part of Mr..
Hahn, sober minded citizens will adj
init that Mr.. Hoyne has given an ex-
cellent account of his stewardship
and Indulge in the fervent hope that
ne will permit his name to be SUBJ

IMMORAL SHOWS. The al

on immoral shows by III W." ex-
presses the right sentiments. hap
pened to see the show referred to at
the Haymarket theater and know
a board of censors would never per-
NIT such scenes to appear in the
movies. For instance, two come
dams (?) are looking for a diamond
garter. They place a large mirror
on the floor and connive to get a
woman to stand on the mirror Then
they get on their hands and knees
and gaze into the mirror, at the same
time passing vulgar remarks. 1 can
not understand why such things are
permitted by the management of the
theater or by law. The influence
upon the boys in the audience helps
to make them vicious.
The lid should be placed on bur-
lesque shows more than the movies,
for there one can hear filthy tales
and see base immortality. What an
eyesore to Chicago is State street

houses in that locality, with their.

COTTON PRICES GOES
 UP $4 ON A BALE
Crop Report Causes Large Ad- vance-ClOSe 57 to 62 Points Up Trade Interests Were Heavy Buyers.

New York, Aug. 31.-Publication of the governments crop report was fol- lowed by extraordinary activity and excitement in cotton today, with all deliveries making new high records for the season. December contracts sold up from 15.61c to 16.40c, or ap- proXimately $4 a bale from the low point of the day, and closed at 16.31c, with the general list closing irregular at net advance of 57 to 62 points.
 The market was rather nervous and unsettled before the government re- port was published. A sharp break in Liverpool was followed by an opening decline of to IA points here. The market rallied to a shade over last nights closing figures before the gov ernment report was issued and the moment the condition of 61.2 per cent was announced there was a sensation al jump in prices.
 According to the Bureau of Statis- tics, this condition which was the low est on record, pointed to lint yield of only 11,S00,000 bales, or, accord ing to local statistieians, to a total growth of around 12,750,000 bales, with an allowance for linters. Bullsn traders compared this with last years world consumption of 14,S00,000 bales American. Trade interests were heavy buyers, while the South and West also bought freely. Realizing caused slight reactions during the af- ternoon, but closing prices were with in few points of the best.
 Cotton closed irregular.

PREPARING GUARDS
 MEN FOR MOVE
National Guard Regiments Will Be Equipped With Extra Sup plies For the JOurney-30, ,000 Under Order.

Washington, Aug. 31-National guard regiments and regular coast artillery companies en route to or from the border have been ordered equipped with extra supplies for the journey against the possibility that a general strike will delay their move ments. Secretary Baker and other war department officials refused to- day to discuss reports that the fifteen thousand guardsmen suddenly or dered northward last night were being moved as a precaution against strike violence.
 Approximately 30,000 troops are under orders to move from the border and many of them will be en route Monday morning, the time set for the strike. Army officials indicated today that if the troop trains were caught in a tie-up, the men would detrain and make camp at whatever point they are to await instructions. If congress does not authorize the drafting of train crews for military purposes, sol diers might be used to run the trains. Every regimental commander has the names of the men under him who could drive an engine or do trainmen's service if an emergency arose.
 As long as the regiments ordered north remain in the federal service they are not subject to call of the governors of their states and their participation in strike duty would have to be on the same basis as reg ular federal troops.

STRIKE CERTAIN
 TO BE INVERTED
Eight-HOur Day Measure AL
 ready is Pending in House Beth Branches of Congress to Take Up Proposed Laws Today

Washington, Aug. 31.-Belief grew in all quarters tonight that the great railroad strike called for next Mon day morning will be averted. After day of conferences and hearings Congress apparently is prepared to pass tomorrow or Saturday the eight hour day legislation, which heads of the employees brotherhoods have de- clared will cause them to revoke the strike order.
 Although President Wilson still de- sires to see his whole legislative pro- gram accepted and Democratic leaders in the Senate have ideas of their own about what should be done, adminis- tration spokesmen practically conced- ed tonight that the bill finally passed will provide only for:
 What Congress Will Pass.
 An eight-hour day for trainmen in interstate commerce, effective Decem- Der 1 or January 1, with the present l0-hour rate of pay and pro rata over time, and:
 A small commission appointed by the president to investigate the work ings of the law for six to nine months and report to Congress.
 This, with the date December 1, is in substance the Adamson bill re- vised by Representative Adamson and Democratic Leader Kitchin after con- ferring with President Wilson, and which A. B. Garretson, spokesman for the brotherhoods, said will be consid- cred satisfactory settlement" and prevent walkout. Tonight the Sen ate Interstate Commerce Committee agreed to report out a similar bill with the date January 1 and roads under 100 miles in length exempted.

 TREASURY TODAY
c.rsutv-fve Counties Pay Total 'essS2 ss lS2.49S.O7 Into Various EEJn,nds-Pay Rolls Today Will! paouire About S42,OOO.

1;ttle Rock. Sept. 1.-All the coun- .,s If tbe state have settled now for na M taxes of 1915, Poinsett county sar;ng M been the last. Sheriff Joe ual IT. made the settlement for that e0untv yesterday, paying in total If s4S.75265, of which $l3,l72.75 was general revenue.
 The 75 counties of the state have ,.d total of $3,132, ,49S.07 in taxes this t year, the principal funds being as follows:
 General revenue, $S41 ,21S.54.
 Common school, $1,281 ,11S.50.
 Confederate pension, 1852, 2,l93.60.
 State capitol, $53,413.71.
 There is now in the state treasury q total of $26S, ,566 in the general rev. enue fund, and this will be decreased today by about $42,OOO for the month ly pay-rolls of the various state de- partments State officers and em- plOyes will experience the rare pleas ure of being able to present their war rants to the state treasury today and receive cash for them.
 The records of the state auditor show that there is outstanding total of s41,649.15 in unpaid warrants. There is considerable speculation as to where they are As there is plenty of money in the treasury to take them up, it is considered somewhat strange that they are not presented for pay ment.
 Yesterday the Simmons National Bank of Pine Bluff presented $2,500 of the old warrants, being the accum- ulated salary warrants of Judges Elliott and Sorrels for several months past, Other warrants are probably held by banks throughout the state.
 The state treasury is in much the best condition that it has been in years al this time.

Waiting for Rolling Stock.

San. Antonio, Tex, Aug. 31.-Na- tional guardsmen ordered to return from the border scarcely will com plete their movement before the end of next week, and perhaps not then, according to official opinion. It is necessary to scrape together rolling stock from many distant points be- fore all the men can be entrained. In some cases regiments can be rapidly entrained, in others there will be much delay because trains to bear the guardsmen to their destinations must be brought from St. Louis, Chicago, Houston and New Orleans.
 All the troops will not return to their state mobilization camps. it is understood. In states where the fed eral government possesses reserva- ton the guard will be stationed there, Army men said there is food to feed the men on the border for sixty days, but that forage would soon be ex- hausted and it would be necessary to graze the army animals. v
 There has been frequent rains in Texas lately and the grazing is good.

COTTON CROP THIS
 YEAR DETERlOATES
Production of 11,S00,0O0 is L. l16,0O0 Below Former Esti- mates-BOll Weevil Damage Heavy in Many States.

Washington, Aug. 31.-Further de- terioration of the growing cotton crop during August has reduced the esti- mated final production by 1,116,O0O bales to a total of II 1,8OO0O0 bales.
 That forecast was made today by the Department of Agriculture, bas- ing its calculation on the condition of the crop on August 25.
 August was unfavorable for cot ton in almost all sections of the cotton belt" says the forecast. "In the west ern section the crop deteriorated se- verely in Oklahoma and Texas because of extreme drouth over large areas which caused the plant to stop fruit ing and shed. Weevils damaged the crop considerably in Eastern and Southern Texas, Southern Arkansas, Western Florida and Southwestern Georgia and disastrously in Missis- sippi, Alabama and portions of Louis jana.
 HeaVy Weevll Damage.
 Much of the crop in Southern Mis- sippi and Alabama, because of rain and weevil damage, will require from 10 to 20 acres to produce bale of cotton.
 "In the Carolinas and Georgia hot sunshine following the July rain on the sappy plant caused much she'd ding.
 Lack of fertilizer, which was leached from the soil by the July rain or withdrawn grass and weeds, i5 shown by the appearance of the plant which seems to have reached maturity with a small stalk and lack of fruit There are many grassy fields in the eastern states, Caterpillars are re- ported in Texas, Louisiana, Florida and Georgia, but have done no ma terial damage as yet.
 Picking is general over the south ern half of the belt and even in Okla homa where there is much premature opening. Virginia, Tennessee, north west Mississippi, Eastern Arkansas and Missouri have good to splendid crops of cotton"
 Comparative Figures. The crop of 11,SO0,OOO, equivalent 5O0-pound bales, compares with 12,- 916,000 bales forecast from July 26 condition reports and 14,266,000 bales forecast from conditions existing June 25. Last years production was H. 19l ,S20 bales, two years ago 16,134,- 93O, three years ago 14,156,486, and four years ago 13,703,421. During July heavy storms caused damage to the crop causing loss in production calculated at 1 ,250,000 bales.
 Comparisons of condition on August 25, by states, follow:

TNEW POLICY OF BRITISH
Friendly German People Who Subscribed to War Loan Not
 MOleSted.

LONDON, Aug. 4. Great
 Britain docs not propose to add
 10 the blacklist of American
 firms, and has no intention of
 withdrawing or modifying lts
 policy, Lord Cecil declared In
 discussing the blacklist policy
 He said: "The British govern. ment decided 1t was absurd to al. low British subjects to continue trad. ing with certain firms regarded as serious enemies. To give two in. stances. it is known when the Ger. man raiders were on the Atlantic they obtained supplies from German concerns in South America. Again, lt is known that certain firms and people of North and South America made considerable subscriptions to the German war loan and some firms performed very extensive propagan. da work in neutral countries. What We have done Co forbid British sub iects trading with concerns who sub. stantially are working with Germany financially and commercially It is no new policy lt began last sum. mer in the Far East, where it an. swered very well, and we have req son to believe it inflicted consider able loss on the enemy.
 "We later applied it to South America. Then came the question of applying It to the United States. We didn't sec how we could treat German firms there differently from those in the Argentina lt was al- ways our intention Co apply 1t to the United States. There was no secret about it. explained 1t thoroughly in the Commons"
 Asked why certain German firms in the United States were not black listed because they subscribed to the Allies war loan, Lord Cecil replied: We certainly do not propose to put our friends on lhe blacklist. It Is intended only for our enemies. l do not think we should blacklist firms unless regarded as outposts of the German empire All we have done. repeat, is to forbid British sub jects trading wieh iirms-no matter whether with German names or not that we think any decent Britlsher ought not to do business with"
