The PACIFIC FLEET
ARRIVES OFF CALIFORNIA

The Pacific Fleet, the greatest that
ever turned propeller in the Pacific
Ocean has arrived off the coast of
Southern California to make the seas
under the Sierra and Cascade slopes
its home. Jim an inspiring naval pa
rade Adpfiral Hugh Rodman's newly
created fleet passed in review of Sec
retary/of the Navy Daniels and Gov
ernofs and Mayors of Western States
anYcities aboard the cruiser Montana
anchored off Coronado beach, while
thousands lined the shore to aid in the
welcome.
Six miles of war vessels, 81 in num-
ber-some of which had held guard
with the British in the North Sea
swung past the reviewing ship, fir
ing the dreadnaught's salutes of nine
teen guns in honor of the Secretary
of the Navy as they came abeam the
Montana. 1t required one hour for
this vast fleet of dreadnaughts, battle
ships of lesser type and 21 sleek and
speedy destroyers to pass the welcom-
ing party.
The war vessels turned inshore by
the Montana, then stood away to the
southward for three miles, came
about and steamed into the north
west, making almost complete
circle, and then firing guns in honor
of the secretary, the battleships came
into the bay.
Secretary Daniels, turning from the
bridge of the Montana after the last
destroyer had passed, said: "This is
a realization of dream l kept con-
stantly in view since 1 first came to
the Pacific coast shortly after induc-
ton into office to study naval condi-
tions. l conceived of an American
fleet that was truly an American fleet
at home and of equal strength on
both coasts. This advance into pow
erful fleets is an epoch in naval his
tory and presages the day when the
whole fleet now composed of more
than a million tons, with five million
more tons building, will make the
magnitude of this review seem small
in comparison"
After the review Secretary Dan
iels, in company with Gov. Stephens,
of California; Gov. Octaviani LARA
zola, of New Mexico, with a personal
representative Of the Governor Of
Arizona, together with the Mayor of
San Diego and Admirals J. L. Jayne,
Josiah Mexican and Charles Parks
and prominent West coast citizens,
went aboard the flagship New Me-
leo, where speeches Of welcome were
made to Admira! Rodman and his
fleet officers.

TOUGH ON AUNT MARY

(From The New York Times.)
There is very stern Philadelphia
woman who demands instant and un-
questionable obedience from her chill
dren. One afternoon a storm came
up and she sent her little son John to
close the trap leading to the
roof of the house.
But, mother,' began John.
"John l told you to shut the trap !'
eyes, but mother"
alright mother if you say so
but"
Johnv'
Whereupon John slowly climbed
the stairs and shut the trap. The
afternoon went by and the storm
howled and ragged. Two hours later
the family gathered for dinner, and
when the meal was half over Aunt
Mary, who was staying with the moth
er had not appeared. The mother
started an investigation, bu. she did
not have to ask many questions. John
answered the first one.
Mother, she is on the roof"

used to beat down prices and cause
the South fabulous losses, as Germany
cannot buy pound of cotton, even
with gold, until the Peace Treaty has
been. confirmed.
Experts who are working on the
cost Of production of the growing
crop find that it will be the most ex-
pensive crop ever grown. One lead
ing expert from the South, Mr.. Nor
rison, of New Orleans, a recognized
authority, rendered a detailed state
ment including every item showing
the cost of production of the growing
crop, basis middling, of AZ cents per
pound. With the present shortage of
labor the percentage of off grade cot
ton from the growing crop will prob
ably break all previous records, as
there is certain to be great deal of
trouble and delay in gathering the
growing crop, which will be bound to
cause off and low grade cotton.
The organization of the American
Cotton Association is the only guar
antee that we will get square deal,
that the future will be protected, that
present depressed conditions will be
obliterated, the South will come into
its own and be the most prosperous
part of the entire naion.

Manipulators Spoil Cotton
Values For Borrowing

Columbia, S. C. Aug. 1.-THE
American Cotton Association, by con-
fidential representatives, has been Sc
curing inside information from the
cotton consuming centers. of the
North and from the New York Ex-
| change for quite some length of
, time. Much of the information Sc
cured is very valuable.
A mammoth meeting will 5e held
IN the early fall for the purpose Of
discussing and recommending a mini
mum price for the growing crop based
on supply and demand and the COM
parison in prices Of manufactured
products, also the matter of acreage
for the coming year will be seriously
considered. The farms will be oper-
ated on business basis and only such
acreage will be planted as based upon
supply and demand will bring a prof
liable price. Under no condition will

surplus to bear down prices.
After this meeting, confidential in
formation secured as stated above,
will receive the most careful consid-
Grafton and attention and investiga-
tion of the fragrant manipulation
which has been practiced in the cot
ton market will be made. AS a re-
suit of this manipulation the South
has suffered the loss of millions.
One of the leading bankers from
the wealthy Western section recently
stated:
"We would be delighted to loan
money on your cotton as money is
extremely easy with us, but it is an
absolute tool for the manipulation, the
prices being flagrantly and violently
| manipulated at his own sweet will, so
that cotton is really considered as a
gambling product, and in our section
| of the West it is considered unsafe
for handling by the banks. You
| should do something to stabilize your
prices"
Dry goods to-day, since the break
in the price Of cotton, are still ad-
vancing, it being impossible to have
orders filled without delay. 1t has
just been stated that it will be neces-
sary to allot mems underwear on ac
count of the great shortage of the
manufactured product. There will
be record breaking demand for
cotton.

been confirmed the manipulation will

POTASH FOUND
IN PENNSYLVANIA

Billions Of dollars worth of potash
deposits have been discovered in the
state of Pennsylvania. The Pennsyl-
vania State geoligist assured Sena-
tor Smith, of South Carolina, that
this fertilizer can be taken from the
earth and put on the cars for $40 a
ton. Solid Mountains of the rock,
which contains as high as ID per cent
potash, are found in Tioga county.
There is enough potash in these de-
posits to make the South independent
of foreign and manufactured vari-
ties for generations. The discovery
is hailed with delight by Southerners,
because of the extensive use of potash
in this section of the country.

it was stated that Japanese male
wages are 53 cents day and the
same class of labor in the United

might have been added that in Amer

three cents will purchase theJapan-

The State of Minnesota, in order
to assist the stockmen of the West
who have been forced from the
plains by the drouth, is offering to
rent thousands of acres of land at
one cent an acre. Millions of sheep
and cattle are being brought from
the parched areas of the far West to
be fattened on the luxuriant grasses
of Northen Mississippi valley.
