In North Dakota, according to a let ter from F. C. Hellstrom, the Pres ident poled a larger percentage of the total vote cast in this election than has ever been cast at any of the state wide primaries held in this state.'
 In a straw vote taken by the Port land Oregonian the president received the highest number of votes.
 A summary of the poll is as follows:
 232S registered as rep.
 639 registered as dem.
 249 registered as pro-, SOC, etc.
 3216 total registered for days.
 Sl2 voted for Wilson.
 46S voted for Hughes.
 329 voted for Roosevelt.
 S2 voted for others,
 1924 did not vote.
 The president received sixteen more votes than Hughes and Roosevelt combined The Portland Oregonian says in commenting on this poll:
 "One outstanding fact emphasized by the straw vote was MT. Wilson's obvious popularity among the women. Considerably more than half the Wo- men who voted expressed preference for Mr. Wilson. This was true not Withstanding the fact that a large majority of these women had regis tered as republicans"
 The Oregonian is one of the leading republican papers in the northwest. In commenting on this poll in a letter, the Honorable Joseph N. Teal says:
 '1he registration in this country is about 1-2 to 1 republican. This straw ballot shows several important facts. Out of the SIS voters expressing pref erence for democrat, S13 were for MT. Wilson. This indicates substantial unanimity amongst the democrats. The total voters expressing prefer ence were 1892. Of these S64 express ed a preference for some republican SIS for some democrat, a republican majority of but 46 The majority of women expressed their preference for MT. Wilson. The significance of this test vote lies in the fact that this county and state are both overWhelm- ingly republican, and the result of the test is really startling.'

HUBBARD BROTHERS ON
:. THE COTTON CROP
Well.Known Firm Gives Opinion on
the Market With Present Outlook
of Crop.

Following is Hubbard Bros. cotton
letter for last week:
It became apparent after the Bu-
reau report was published last week,
from a technical outlook that sew
eral of the leading operators on the
long side had disposed of their hold
ings on the advance, taking their
profits. While expressing decidedly
bullish opinions for sometime in the
more or less distant future, they
thought it was best to liquidate be-
fore they were called upon to absorb
the offerings of cotton from the
plantations. The buyers of their
holdings were, in many instances,
spinners and the remainder were
those who came in to buy cotton
at the highest price in the lifetime
of two generations. -.
AS anticipated the South has rush
ed to take advantage of prevailing
high prices and merchants in the
South finding no demand from ex-
porters or from spinners who hold
more cotton in stock and contracts
here and in New Orleans than ever
before, have hedged the cotton taken
from the planters by sales in these
two markets, bringing about a de-
cline, as q natural result, of 135
points from the extreme high point
for January after the Bureau report
to the low point of today.
Our local traders who are very
bullish have bought and advised the
outside public to buy on the decline,
so they today brought about a re-
action of rs points from the bottom.
The trade are as bullish as ever,
they hold the present decline is a
natural reaction after long con-
tinued advance Of seven months, so
that they expect higher prices next
week. It is noticeable that there are
no bearish traders of prominence in
the market, this in itself, is signifi-
cant of the attitude of the cotton
trade as q whole. Today the Gin
ners' report of $4,000 bales in Aug
ust, while exceeding expectations,
was accepted as indicating a rush OF
cotton from a short crop and not as
indicative of any error on the part
of the Government in having under
estimated either the acreage or the
yield. Texas has ginned 522, 600
bales against 655,000 bales in 1913,
674,OO0 bales in 1912, $4,000 bales
in 1911, so that states does not ap-
pear to have ginned as much as
usual. The increase is in the other
States especially Georgia, which re-
nortS $4,000 bales against 133, 4OS
in 1915, 13&235 in 1914, 1882 in
1918. .....t. ... =
There has been much discussion
about the possible closing OF the
Liverpool Cotton Exchange by the
English Government. We do not for
one moment believe this will be
done, but we can, from a bankers
standpoint, quite understand why

New York. Sept. so.-Ten families were
driven to the street today by a 5000 fire
in five-story dwelling at ls4 West Fiji
reenth street, and several women, trapped
by the smoke, were carried to the street
by fremen, assisted by onlookers.
Smoke was seen coming from the base
ment by Joesph Arneth, a clerk employed
by the J. NJ. Lowden Company. After
sending in an alarm Arneth ran into the
house and aroused the tenants. As they
attempted to escape down the stairs they
found that the fire was eating its way up
the staircase, and women and men were
compelled to run to the fire escapes in
the rear OF the building.
Living alone on the fourth floor was
Mrs. Mary Clark, so years old. AS she
entered the hall a volume Of smoke drove
her back into her apartments, and she
made for the fire escape. Here she found
a congestion, due to the other tenants
using that means OF escape. Returning
to her rooms, she climbed out on the
ledge Of a window overlooking the street
Arneth, who was awaiting the arrival
of the firemen, shouted to her not to
jump and, running to the third floor of
the house adjoining. climbed out on the
fire escape and called to Mrs Clark to
take hold of his hand. Several firemen
of Hook and Ladder Company No. 12
went to Arneth's assistance and Mrs.
Clark was helped across to a point of
safety.
