BIG WAR BILL
PASSES SENATE
SENATOR MARTIN CHARGES EX.
TRAVAGANT AND ALMOST
RECKLESS ESTIMATES.

Washington, September 26:--With-
out q roll-csll and after brief Debate
the Senate late yesterday passed the
ht.billion-dollar war deficiency ap-
preparation bill. Nearly S800,000,-
600 was added to the measure as it
came from the House and it now
goes to conference.
Items for many million dollars
were approved. with only a hand
full of Senators present and without
discussion. Senator Martin, chair
man of the appropriations commit
tee; and Democratic floor leader.
urged sharp scrutiny of what he
termed extravagant and almost reck-
less departmental estimates. He
said appropriations during five
months of war would reach about
$40, 900, 900, 900. and expressed con-
cern lest six years total might be
$50, 600, 900, 900.
Over the Democratic leaders op-
position the Senate adopted, 28 to
26. an amendment by Senator Rob-
inson appropriating s500,OoO for
the employment bureau Of the de-
partment of labor.
As it goes to conference the bill
totals 81, 1881, 400, 900. including $2,.
1856, 900, 900 of contract authoriza-
ton and Senate amendments total
ing 100000.

Why Sell Cotton Now!

When cotton was selling at 6 or Z
cents a pound and that was the cost
of production, the producer was COM
PEELED by his creditors to carry it to
market 80 soon as it was harvested.
When it was selling at Ia cents
pound it seems that even the small
farmer should have been in posi-
ton more independent and that he
might have been able to withhold at
least a substantial part of his crop
from the market for a time. In
those days there would have been
some margin of profit i'm the cotton
growing industry. We're the price
today to jump to 40 cents pound,
would the necessity still confront the
tenant farmer who has given a mort
gage to deliver his whole product to
the creditor?
1t is not quite possible for US to
believe that most of the cotton now
going to market is sold under the
spur of necessity. If that be the
case, it must follow that therh is an
absence of relationship between high
prices and the independence of the
producer. If 20-cent cotton yields
him no more freedom than he had
when the staple fetched one-third
that price, the inference would be
legitimate that his slavery would
continue if the price we've go cents a
pound.
In our opinion the tendency to
glut the market now is explained by
the craving of the farmers to obtain
cash and buy luxuries and comforts.
Too many of them are pretty we'll
content with 20 cents. They do not
reflect that they are losing money
when they sell their product for less
than it is worth, however tempting
the present price may be. That the
farmer now has a profit of Z or s
cents pound in cotton is no reason
why he should not try to get profit
Of Is cents, and he ought to be in
formed that of this an excellent
chance is to be considered. Undoubt-
edly campaign of education should
begin at once. There is no reason in
the world why man who has a bale
of cotton in these times should hur-
riedly convert it into money or that
in the meantime he should be with
out money y.--Er.

GERMANY PLANNED
TOSTRIKE IN 1913
PLOTTED TO CAPTURE PARIS, CON
OUER ENGLAND AND THEN IO
CRUSH THE UNITED STATES.

Washington. September 25:-Pre'
diction that Germany would wage a
war for world conquest in about 10
wears was made to the late Admiral
Dewey at Manila in 1898 by Capt
Won Goetz of the German imperial
navy, Senator kswis told the Senate
Tuesday.
Quoting a report from Admira
Dewey to the navy department, the
Illinois Senator said Won Goetz told
the American naval officer Germany
would capture Paris as the first step
to subjugating England. The TAX
ing of New England and Washing
ton was to follow in order that Ger.
many might secure an enormous
cash indemnity.
The wiping out of the Monroe doc
trine and the control of South Am
erica by Germany also was predict
ed by the German officer. declared
Senator Lewis, who was discussing
peace negotiations.
For some reason the government
had not given the report wide circu'
lation. Senator Lewis continued. but
in the face of it now, any Senator
who speaks here or elsewhere against
any measure of his country lend:
himself to the enemy"
Characterizing the German reply
to Pope Benedict's peace note al
"Prussian peace hypocrisy" and ar
affront both to the Pope and Presi
dent Wilson, Senator Lewis scored
what hetermed ''laggards in patriot
ism" and those who argued against
the war.
The country guarantees free
speech to every American the
speaker said, but that man who
uses free speech against America i:
not the American to whom free
speech is guaranteed. In this coun
try there can be nc free speech tc
any man to destroy the freedom OF
his fellowman. There can never be
liberty Of speech to an American
citizen to destroy the libert y of tine
American nation.

the call alike and one was nd less
enthusiastic than the other in his
eagerness and willingness to serve
his country. These young men were
taken care of in the homes of citi-
zens during the night and until the
time for their departure Saturday
morning.
Under the auspices of the Wo-
mans Service league a smoker was
held in their honor on the court
house green from s to 10 o'clock p.
m. A C Kinds acted as master OF
ceremonies and introduced as the
speakers of the evening, Revs T )
McChesney and G T Harmon. These
able ministers, each made an inspir.
ing address and were heartily ap-
plauded at the conclusion of their
remarks. Cigars. cigarettes and all
kinds of soft drinks were served by
the members of the league. A
piano was placed in one of the door
ways of the court house and Miss
Claudia Jones rendered some beauti-
full selections. Mr. David Silverman
also assisted in entertaining the boys
with his violin.
At II o'clock Saturday morning
they entrained for Lanes, where a
barbecue dinner had been prepared
for them by the people of that COM
munity. Upon the arrival of their
train the feast was ready and spread,
so that all they had to do was to
march up to the table and help them
selves. There was an abundance of
barbecue, friend chicken, ham and
nicknacks to have fed twice as many
more, an evidence of the liberal hos
pitality and patriotism of the Lanes
people.
