New York Cotton.

New York. Aug. 3.-There was a renewal of the general buying move ment in the cotton market at the opening today. If anything the de- mand was even more urgent and eX- cited, owing to the continued dry hot weather in the Southwest and the inspiring character of the war news, with first prices showing an advance of , to 120 points. October sold up to 2S.5Oc shortly after the call. making a new gain of 105 points, while De- cember touched 2797c, or 1O2 points higher, with the advance finding, fur ther encouragement in the forecast for continued fair weather in the Southwest.
 With January contracts selling at 28.3O the market showed an ad- vance of fully 420 points, or $21 per bale from the price prevailing just before the publication of the govern ment's crop report on last Thursday. This advance met a good deal of realizing, while there was also some selling on reports of continued slack spot demand. and talk of an easier technical position. Reac- ton of about half cent followed, but 
 the market comparatively quiet and steady around midday when prices were still some 6S to 80 points net higher. October reacted from 2S:50c to 27.50c with these deliveries ruling around 2S.25c and 27.75c at midday.
 The detailed weather reports show ing very high temperatures in the Southwest held selling in check dur ing the middle of the day. but later offerings increased on reports of rain at Houston. The heavy buying of the morning appeared to have left the market without much support and prices broke very rapidly toward , o'clock, with October selling off to 27.7Oc and December to 27.25c, with active months generally showing de- clines of some 80 to 110 points from the early high level and back to within 20 to 30 points of Saturdays closing.

THE NEXT LIBERTY LOAN

Our government announces
another Liberty Loan Drive,
and April 9Th, is the date set to
commence operations. 1t would
be a mighty good thing right
now, if every person would take
time to weigh this war question
seriously in his mind for a few
minutes, to satisfy himself as
to "Just where we are at"
There are two great questions
to consider in this or any other
war activity that has for it's
purpose the raising of money,
and only two
First:-If the United States
is to be perpetuated as an indie
pendent liberty loving nation,
Germany must be defeated.
Second :-The allies cannot
defeat the central powers of
Europe without the m a n
strength and the wealth of the
OnlCeO states.
All other questions are sub
sidiary to these two main issues.
No one can have any doubt
now, as to the fate of the United
States if victory should event.
ually crown the efforts of the
unspeakable Hun. 1t is not
stretching the imagination too
far, to picture the same fate for
our beloved mothers, sisters,
wives and daughters as befell
the fair women of Belgium and
Northern France; To see them
slaves to the lust and treachery
of a barbarian nation. We can
imagine our children and child
ren's children for generations
to come, paying tribute and war
indemnities to Germany, vas
sails under the iron heel of a
villianous Hohenzollern. It
would be a thousand times bet
ter for our fair liberty loving
nation to be forever blotted
from the face of the earth, than
to look forward to the fate IF
posterity should Germany win
this war. We must win then,
regardless of the sacrifice and
immediate consequences.
Every thinking man knows
now. that if it were not for the
United States, the European
Allies would all be on their
knees right now in the humili-
alton of defeat. There is no
doubt about It, the war would
