Canon, Ca, August 20.
I'VE want VIM S. Howard to remain
in the race to the end. The people are
turning to him every day in Hart and
Franklin counties Harris is a wire-
worker-this is not one of his first
tricks. We don't IKE to be dictated to
when it comes to voting. Howard is
loyal-talk to the contrary is bosh.
Friends, support Howard.

SHEPARD & eLUcK COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 2s.-Cotton bulged to
new high levels in the early session today on
Sensa tiOnaly bullish Lrivate crop reports, one
showing a condition low 90 per cent of
the normal, deteriora ton for the month of
POS points, and pointing to a yield, without
linters, of only II, 20o, 900 bales. On the rise
very heavy realizing came from the long side,
not a few traders selling the opportunity to
even up over the triple holidays following the
close tomorrow. We fear that wide reactions
must be expected after any further gains.
JNo. F. CLARK & co. COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Arg. 29.-The weather map
presented favorable weather conditions, gener-
ally fair and warmer in the western half of
the belt, cloTdy in Mississippi and Alabama
and Atlantics with general precipitation
Atlantics where, according to yesterdays gov
ernmeu. report, rain was badly needed. Indica-
lions are FOR generally cloudy weather, show
Crs mostly the eastern portion, although
some better prospects for rain exist also for
eastern Oklal Oma, Arkansas ard Tennessee.
Overnight war news was again very good
The practical side of marketing the crop
should now take the lead and in this respect
many believe that more definite selling level
has been reached. The market acts Overbought
and technical conditions are tearish. 1t rallied
from the extreme low point of the sudden re-
action but appaers less confident and inclined to
further holiday liquidation.

THE LAST WORD ON SUFFRAGE.

The only thing left to say on the sub
ject of woman suffrage Is what the nlem-
bers Of the Woman Party has been say
ing in Washington For VIC may he
quite sure If it wasn't the only infuriat-
ingly irrefutable thing left 10 say. tho
women who have 50 bravely said it
wouldn't be made 10 pay for 1t with
narrowing prison sentences IN bar
barously conducted jail
The suffrage pickets haven't been
arguing about woman suffrage. They
have simply been taking the only stand
which any self-reSpeetIng and dignifed
woman today can take. In other words
they have simply taken Woman's right
to the ballot for granted, acknowledged
universally today as one of the inalienable
principles OF true democracy, and asked
their government what 1T means by
plunging their country into war, for the
avowed purpose of winning for the world
the very rights IL Is steadfastly refusing
to give to half of its own citizens right
here
Today there isn't anything else TO be
said on the suffrage question but this.
1t is the last, the one utterly unansWer-
able word on the subject And 1t Is our
firm conviction that If all the suffragists
in the country had had the high courage
and moral strength 10 unite on this
stand, their victory would already be
won.-The New York Call, October 10
Every evening, Wilmington daily commercial., 1918-03-09
A POOR YEAR FOR WOMEN.

II is told by several women, for whom
Wv have great respect that tho Treasury
Departments orders were: Get out the
Liberty bonds If IL kills every woman
in the place.
We don't know that Mr. NcAdoo put
il Just that way; in fact, Mr. McAdoo IN
his career Of recent years has convinced
us that he is a pretty shrcwd gentleman
But something was wrong In that depart
ment And the wrong concerns the
labor of women
There are few of our intelligent Ameri-
can women in prison in Virginia They
were imprisoned for the 'hdeous crime
Of quoting Woodrow Wilson on banners
which they carried through the streets
of Washington, ID. G.
The suffrage amendment may seem
70 have no connection with this unpleas-
ant episode But it has Government
clerks imen), who have friends at home
are not bothered by overtime hours
This isn't very good year for women,
so far, except for those who have the
honor Of giving sons or husbands To tho
war.-Thc Boston Journal, October s.
