COTTON MARKET Is
FIRM IN UNDERTONE
Trade Is Only for Evening Up
and Covering on Reports
Of Texas Crop.

With trade mainly Of evening up char
acter. yesterdays cotton market dis
played firm undertone IT, response to
covering orders based on unfavorable
crop advices from Texas. 1t was at one
time IA to 20 points more than Fridays
anal prices. and closed steady with 10
to 15 points net gain.
The feature OF crop news was
notable increase In reports of shedding
from Texas. Certain private advices
claimed that shedding was spreading
over that State. and 1t was feared that
in the weakened condition of the plant
that trouble might be aggravated un-
usually this season and become strong
bull factor. That fear led to consider
able buying outside Of local covering
orders which appeared. and prices ad-
vanced easily. commission houses pick
ing up cotton in small way on the IDEA
that no matter what the Government re-
port should prove to be the market would
be held by new buying based on the IDEA,
that the crop, having late start ana
not being in the most sturdy condition.
would be unusually sensitive to unfavor-
able weather conditions In the next
month. August is the time of tropicai
storms, and with a condition at best or
under 70, it was the belief that BAD
weather would have more than the GUS
tomary adverse effect on the CROP.
The local market for spot cotton was
quiet and Is points higher at 1915 Tor
middling, sales Of which were NIL.

The workingman who works him.
self up into a state Of enthusiasm
and frenzy in favor Of the anti-Sun-
day decisions Of the day, is nothing
less than a simpleton.
Behind nearly every anti-Sunday
movement YOU will somewhere find
a fnancier, or a captain Of industry
or somebody with no thought in his
head except to make money. Every
time one of them wins, his success
compels some group Of men or COM
pany of men to work on Sunday.
And the profits he makes puts it
into the heads Of a dozen other
greedy capitalists and employers to
do likewise.
Every new recreation" condemns
a certain number Of people to work.
The whole thing hits the worker
first. Does not the workingman see
this when he pays his little fee to
enjoy a certain so-called "recrea-
tion?" II he does see it, how does
he know that he will not soon be
in the same boat as the fellows who
have to labor for this pleasure? II
people will work for recreation

She's AT It." Men!

Our wives and sisters and daugh-
tiers will soon be AT IT." if they
are not already at it,
BY at it we mean, of course
housekeeping.
1t is vain TO admit that the mascu-
line gender loves the neutral gen.
der Of a house torn and twisted. 1t
is almost too much to admit that the
masculine gender loves the feminine
gender attired in a frOwzy old cap
and seen through a mist Of dust.
But il has to be endured and those
of US who can make our hearts work
under such circumstances should be
sympathetic to the feminine of the
species in this ordeal Of hers. 1t
isn't pleasant TO clean house. 1t is
Mt easy work, and no matter how the
male person himself may feel about
il at the end Of an imperfect day,
its pretty safe to say that she seeks
her pillow with tired limbs and ach-
ing muscles. Don't make her slum-
bers worse by tantalizing her with
your own crochety remarks about the
inconvenience her poor, doleful
husband suffers.
Woman is %instinctiyely an artist.
She likes beautiful things more than
you do, Mr.. Man. You may dislike
to come home to a house that has
been through battle but not half as
much as she does.
Housecleaning is a necessity-an
absolute, total necessity, and she
knows it. She knows that YOUR
health and YOUR comfort depend
upon it. She knows that the chill
dren's health depends on it. She
knows that the making of a home
the greatest word in the English
language depends on it.
And she house cleans, God bless
her.

additional Taxation Proposed

Not satisfied With driving taxes to
the point Of conhS>auon IN various
states, the radicals ana theorists are
seeking rev ana additional methods
OF taxation.
The latest measure proposed in
Oregon vas stats income tax which
the legislature just voted down. Or
course thls settles nothing as sup
Porters @. tbs measure Immediately
propose 10 initiate 4 bill for the peo-
pie to vote on al the next general
election.
The bait held out is that a state
income tax would reduce the proper
y tax. OF course ne estimate or hg-
ures are gwen to prove this state
ment and the argument iiSproyeS il
self for the Yey purpose Of the
measure IS to RAISE more money BY
taxation. 1t is proposed 10 tax the
incomes 0. the rich, in order to get
the vote Of the ordinary citizen.
But the little FISH would ind him
self IN the net with the big fish once
the bill was passed ami the average
taxpayer has had his eyeteeth cut
with the present federal income tax.
He knows that a state tax would
duplicate the federal measure and
give a host Of new state employees
Jobs at his expense. His books
would have to be gone over by an
other set Of officials and the work of
making up his various tax state
ments alone would almost neceSSi-
tate the help Of a separate clerk.
Last but not least, this latest tax
