The following from the Salem
correspondent to the Oregonian

our readers:
Where city charters do not
specifically exempt cities from
the jurisdiction of the County
Courts il road matters, the
money raised in such municipal
tiles for road improvements is to
be. expended by the County
Courts and not by the municipal
tiles, according to an opinion of
Acknowledgement Brown today.
After citing the road law, the
Attorney-General in his opinion
says:
"The language does not pro

Texas, but now proving to be adapted
to a wide range of conditions In other
states. Durango is distinctly earlier
than Columbia, and has given better
results than other long-staple varieties
in the irrigated sections Of the South
west, and in the Upland districts OF
the Southeast. Even as far north as
Norfolk, Virginia, 1t has been grown
on commercial scale for the last FIVE
years, about 1000 acres being planted
in the season OF 1916. Durango is
very often prolific, frequently out
yields short-staple varieties, and often
shows a higher out-turn at the gin,
the percentage being usually above 80,
often 80 to "a. The lint attains a
length of 1 IA inches, under favorable
conditions. has a distinctive quality,
and has found a ready market, with
substantial premiums above the regu-
lar prices for short cottons. Some
10000 bales have been grown in the
Imperial Valley of California this
season, and are now being sold at
prices around thirty cents pound.

Uncle Sam Urges Farmers
To Saue Seed For Planting

WASHINGTON. D. c., Dec. 22.-The
Bureau of Plant Industry, U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, has issued the
following statement advising cotton
growers to make certain of their sup
ply of seed for planting.
All kinds of cotton seed are likely to
be scarce at planting time next spring.
The unprecedented prices now being
paid at the oil-mills may tempt many
farmers to cut down their reserve of
planting seed or to sell all of it, per-
hsps with the idea of being able to buy
seed of better variety for only little
more than the mills are now paying
for ordinary gin-run seed. While it Is
always desirable to replace an inferior
stock with better one, 1t would be
well to make sure of the good planting
seed as soon as possible.
Supplies Of pure seed are always in
adequate, and the Department fire.
quently has to tell many correspond.
ents who ask where pure seed of SUI
perior varieties can be purchased that
no more is in sight. Although special
efforts are made to keep in touch with
farmers who are maintaining pure
stocks of any of the varieties that have
been distributed by this department, all
such stocks are usually exhausted be-
fore the planting season arrives.
Special Demand for Long Staple Seed
Another danger in the seed supply
lies in the possibility that growers
who have good seed of superior variet-
les may think it easier to sell it at
once to the oil-mill instead of holding
1t to sell for planting. This is spec
ial danger in connection with the new
oarly-maturing long-staple varieties.
AS only limited supplies Of good seed
of these varieties are in existence, it
may be urged that ali of this should be
saved for planting purposes. There is
an active and rapidly increasing de-
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1916-12-22

mand for the long staples, with no i'm
mediate prospect of over-production.
The present demand is likely to in
crease as fast as the supply, il the
production of such cotton can be es-
tablished on an adequate scale, so that
manufacturers can have the same con-
fidence in being able to secure stocks
OF long-staple cotton that they have
with short staples.
At the present time the supply of
long-staple cotton, especially that from
S-16 to 1 IL inch in length, is much
below the demand. This fact Is re-
Elected in the large premiums now be-
ing paid for these extra staples. Prices
are now higher than at any time in
the history Of cotton production.
New Areas of LOng.Staple Production.
The new, early-maturing long-staple
varieties which are proving successful
in meeting the boll-weevil conditions In
the Delta region of Mississippi, Louis
lana, and Arkansas. are coming into
cultivation outside this former center
Of long-staple Production. Three other
areas now offer especially promising
prospects of an increased planting of
these southeast Virginia and
adjacent regions of North Carolina,
northern Mississippi and western Ten
nessee, and the Red River Valley of
northeastern Texas. While equally
favorable conditions are probably to be
found in other states the experiments
that have been carried on for several
years in the district mentioned have
shown the practical possibilities of
producing satisfactory crops of long
staple cotton in ordinary seasons. In
each Of these areas yields of more than
a bale per acre have been obtained for
several of the early long-staple variet-
les now being grown-Columbia Eos
ter, Express, and Durango.

A CONTEST OF CHARACTER,
NOT OF WEASEL WORDS
CARDINAL QUESTION IN THIS
CAMPAIGN is whether THE
PEOPLE WANT IN THE WHITE
HOUSE A PHRASE-MAkER,
OR A MAN WHO BACKS
WORDS WITH DEEDS.

woodrow Wilson excels in the ar
dstry OF politics beyond the capacity
of Charles Evans Hughes to compete.
Were the current campaign game OF
professional politics instead of con-
test of character between two candi-
dates for the highest Office In the gift
of the people. Mr.. Wilson would walk
away with the prize next November.
All bis life he has made a study Of
formEfirst Of literary form-and lat
.terly of political form. In the first
period he mastered a style peculiarly
his own, and peculiarly characteristic
The study Of words and their multi
plicity of meaning always fascinates
him, so much that q Princeton class
mate recently said of him: Tommy
has lived with words SO long he thinks
they are real things" Thence comes
his collection of what Theodore Roose-
velt's Maine Guide calls weasel
words" That is-"he can take
word and Weasel it around and suck
the meaning out of it like weasel
sucks an egg. until it don't mean any
Thing at all, nc matter what it
sounds like it means Thence came
also the series of catch phrases, so
fascinating in sound. so false in sug-
gestiOD so easy to read; so hard to I'M
derstand. SO it is that he is able to
be on all sides Of every public ques-
ton, while covering his crcuitOus
course with Il flow of words that roll
ms Gil hi. IL
through the meadow. 1t is his artful-
ness III the use of words that enables
him to pose as ian amateur in poll
tics" while playing the game with the
skill of a professional. Whatever his
ineptitude in other respects, he is cas-
lily first among presidents in the art
istry of politics, and he would win
next November. were that the test.
Compare the Witness of Mr.. Wilson
with the traightforwardness of Mr..
Hughes. Compare the smooth style of
the one with the rugged diction of the
other. The one is as complex in the
use of words as the other is simple.
1T Is a case of sonorousness versus
strength Mr.. Hughes is depending |
upon the strategy of straightforward |
ness and the strength of sincerity; !
upon the force of facts, instead of up |
on the fiction of Il phrase, to win his
case before the jury of the nation.
His appeal is to the head and not the i
ear of the people to their inteli- |
gence and not to their emotion to
their heroic side and not to their hys-
terical side. II is an appeal to the
courage of the country and not to it's
Mr.. Hughes could not, If
he would, perform in a year the po-
litical tricks that Mr.. Wilson can do
in a day. The question today is
the people want in the White
House for the next four years q
or history-maker; a
man of many sayings, or a man who
backs his words with deeds. There
is fundamental difference between
he two candidates, which marks the
inc of cleavage ia this extraordinary
