KEEP OUT THE GOATS

Among the important measures
that congress will be called upon to
consider is that of immigration. The
United States is in danger of becom-
ing dumping ground of the human
rubbish of Europe. Among the sad re-
suits of the World War affecting this
country is the threatened invasion
of the United States by the dissatis-
fed, the lame and the lazy of the
European countries. Recent statistics
show that during the first four
months of the fiscal year, when the
record was kept, there were over
three hundred thousand immigrants
received in this country. 1t will be
necessary to make entry into the Am
erican ports of foreigners more diff
cult. The Advertiser would not urge
the rejection from our shores of the
worthy and the we'll meaning citizens
of the old world who wish to make
their homes in America. But there
must be some method of separating
the wheat from the chaff, or to use
another Bible smile, the goats from
sheep.
1t will take wise legisla-
ton to discriminate in favor, of the
worthy immigrant. 1t is job for
statesmen. A bill by Senator King, of
Utah, a distinguished Democratic
leader, has been proposed that will
provide means for the exclusion of
undesirable aliens. After excluding
and sending back to Russia such un.
speakable rubbish as Emma Goldman
and similar agitators it would be the
height of absurdity to admit to this
country other people of the same ilk
The "red" rabble must be kept out
if we desire peace, progress and
prosperity to prevail.

GATHERING MOMENTUM

Real progress is now marking-the
efforts of cotton growers to put the
selling of their products on business
basis. The long staple cotton growers
of the Mississippi Valley are organiz-
ing after the plan of the California
raisin growers. A similar organiza-
ton is beng worked out by the long
staple cotton growers of South Caro-
lima. Oklahoma is going ahead with
its plans for a statewide cotton asso-
citation with the crop of the state COW
eder by contracts.
The American Cotton Association
has consolidated with the State Farm
Bureaus and will hereafter be the cot
ton division of the Bureau. It's purpose
henceforth will be to work definitely
for the forming of organizations that
will build warehouses and have their
members bind themselves to their as
sociations with legal contracts to sell
their cotton only through it. This in
dicates that the American Cotton AS
sociation is taking a definite step to-
ward an actual association on a bust
ness basis.
In number of states last year
communities employed cotton graders
and statesmen. Each of these points
should be made the nucleus of a mar
keting association. 1t will soon be time
now to unity and coordinate these
separate efforts. A great Southern
cotton marketing association is in or
der, at which all groups and organiza-
tions should forget any selfish inter
csts, pool their efforts into a definite
plan for pushing the organizing of
cotton marketing associations in every
corner of the South on the California
plan, with the cotton of the members
covered by contracts, just as the
above associations are doing.-The
Progressive Farmer.

COMMON SENSE OF
MOVEMENT

From The Progressive Farmer:
What is the common sense of the
cotton-holding movement? 1t can be
very easily explained. The New York
Economic World,in it's latest issue now
before us, gives the reasons for the
present low price of cotton in very
simple language. The Economic
- World isn't trying to please cotton
growers or to help cotton prices. 1t
is simply reporting the undisputed
facts for the information of its read
ers in New York and elsewhere. Here
is the way it sizes up the situation:
"The difficulty is, of course, that
the spinners in every cotton consum-
ing country in the world find them
selves almost completely at sea with
regard to the future of the goods
market, or else fatally handicapped
either by the abnormalities of the in
ternational credit and exchange po-
sition, or by political and social dis
turbances of very Threatening kind.
Hence they do not dare to commit
themselves upon the customary scale
In respect to their raw material for
the coming months even though the
price at which it is now obtainable is
entirely satisfactory. They must per-
force pursue a purely hand-to- mouth
policy, taking for the present only
such cotton as they have immediate
use for and leaving it to the cotton
producers to carry the main part of
the supply until the future determines
how much of it can be consumed and
at what price"
In other words, the Economic
World says that the reason mills are
not buying cotton is not that they
can't spin it at a profit at present
prices, but simply because their ina
bility to get bank credit, ETC., makes
1T impossible to buy except on a
"hand-to-mouth" basis. They are TAX
ing just enough cotton to get along
on from day to day. Consequently if
farmers try to force them to buy
enough for three, six or nine months
ahead, the mills simply say, "Well, if /
buy whole lot more than I want
now, you will practically have to give
it to me-"
TO try to feed the cotton market
now is like trying to get more corn
down foundered horse. II is like
trying to make man eat three or
or four more pieces of chocolate cake
after he has already filed him
self with dinner and dessert. He
doesn't want it NOW-but if you just
wait till tomorrow, he will beg for it.
What is the remedy? The remedy is
to get the facts before the farmers.
We must educate the farmer who is
trying to overfeed the market. We
must get him to read the papers that
are trying to fight his battles and give
him more information and guidance
about his marketing problems. We
must inform him concerning such tri-
umphs of cooperative efforts as Cali
fornia growers have achieved. We
must get him to attend the meetings
where his interests are discussed. We
must get him to join the warehousing
organization provided for his benefit.
But the first step is to get him to
read. II he gets the facts about the
market and the causes and remedies
for present conditions, then these 9TH
or things will follow.

Coast Produce Growers May
 Ship to East Through Canal

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. B. Thirty-five cooperative growers as sociations of Pacific Coast states will meet here December 20 to consider methods of moving freight since re- cent increase of rail rates.
 Chartering of vessels to carry their produce through the Panama Canal to Eastern markets may be de- cided upon.
 Steps toward organizing vegetable and produce growers in California into cooperative marketing assoc1a- tions are under way under the Suid- ance of the State Market Director according to Fred N Bigelow, Sec retary of the State Market Commis- sion. Five of these associations are being formed, he said.
 These organiZa tion, with two neW fruit growers associations and one of poultrymen will mean an addi- ton of from $5,000,0 900 to S7,O00,- 900 to the California products mar keted in this manner and from loo9 to 2.0OO new growers in the coop erative ranks, according to Bigelow.
 Two of the new associations were formed as direct result of disastrous conditions in their line this year, Bigelow said, the Imperial Valley growers sending only 5700 cars of lettuce out Of 5000 car crop to market, turning the rest under the soil because of low whole sale prices, although lettuce was re- tailing in the east at 20 to 30 cents head. Coachella onions likewise suffered, according to Bigelow, only 700 cars out of 1500 being sent to market, the growers even losing money on their marketed crop, dcs- pite the retail price of three pounds of onions for 25 cents.

MAD MULLkH SAFE. IN ABYSSIN!A BUT. WIVES CAPTURED.

LONDON, Dec 3. - The Mad Mullah," the dervish leader, who seems to bear a charmed life, is now in Abyssinia, s2fe from British pursuit but of his numerous wives. sons and relatives, only his eldest son and a brother escaped with him.
 In the British campaign against him, 60 fo his personal followers were killed, including seven of his sons. seven close relatives and four of his advisers Six sons, his five wives, four daughters and two sisters were captured.
 Picturesque details of the fruit less attempts to capture the derviah chieftain are given in an officiat despatch from Godfrey Francis Ar cher. the British Governor of that protectorate.
 In the early months of this year, the dervish forces were completely routed, but the Mullah himself once more got away into the interior. Bombing airplanes were used in the campaign and the despatch records that on the approach of the first air squad, the Mullah collected his peo- pie around him and awaited their coming under a white canopy used on state occasions.
 Some dcrvishes afterward report Fed that the Mullah saw in the air ! planes "a divine manifestation, others said that he had been told that the machines were. Turkish nd came from Stamboul tConstan- tinoplc) to convey the Sultan , 'rcetings.
 It was during this first air raid 1 that the Mullah narrowly escape ! with his life. His robes were singed l by a bomb and he afterwards pru- l dently took refuge in cave.
 For many days, says the despatch, the Mullah was pursued by the Camel l Corps. often on half rations and even on no rations at all. The chase was kept up night and day until there was nothing further to pursue from the sea to the southern bor- der of the protectorate.
 One group of fugitiyes whose track
 Nas followed turned out to be not

e party of Abyssinians. Most of the party were killed, the despatch adds, and the Mullah. who was close at hand all the time, saw their fate from a hiding place in neighboring hill.

1OO-TON PLANT
 AT SPIEL RIVER BEING PLANNED
Founders of First Pulp Mill Plan Large One to Be
 Erected Next Year.

The Alaska Pulp and Paper Com the first pulp to be manufactured in Alaska, is fast developing expan- sion plans and it is the present plan 10 have another pulp mill of 100-tons capacity in operation within a year from now, and then to begin paper making The mill which this com pany has nearly completed and which will be in operation about Christmas time, will have a capacity of IS tons daily. E. P. Kennedy is in San Francisco now preparing the plans for the additional finances that will be required for the new mill, and he will be joined within a few days by Leo K. Kennedy, who left for the south on the Princess Beatrice.
 The new plant will be operated, according to plans now developed, by additional water power to be developed by the Speel River Pro ject. This project has a potential water power of 30,O0O to 10000 horse power, and is conceded to be the best in Southeastern Alaska. Only a small part of the water power of the project has been utilized for the plant that was erected this year
 The plans of the company are for continued progression. The 1S- ton pulp plant has already been erected and it will be producing pulp this year The program contemplates the erection next year of pulp mill five times as large as the mill now nearing the producing stage. Then will begin the erection of a paper manufacturing plant if the present plans work out successfully.
 The Alaska Pulp and Paper Com pany has worked out it's plans and become the first company in Alaska actually to construct a pulp mill in the Territory, without any excite ment and in a space of time that proves the businesslike management ! of the concern.
