CONSUME LESS |. $. COTTON
Germany Will Reduce Purchasing by
 Half During Next Six Months.

Washington, Aug. 23.-German de- mand for American cotton during the next six months will amount to not more than half the quantity consumed during the past six months, according to report to the Commercial Depart ment today from Commercial Attache Charles E. Herring at Berlin.
 General money tightness and the continued decline of the mark, MT Herring said, has put the German cot ton industry in particularly serious condition so that it must either greatly increase it's capacity CT obtain foreign credits, if present production is to con- tinue.
 Arrivals of American cotton from August to August IS, he adds, totaled 10000 bales against 10000 bales for the same period last year, while the visible supplies of American cotton in Bremen on August IS were 1SO,O00 bales compared with 2S0,000 bales in 1921.

To the Voters of Little River County:

To the Voters of Little River County:
 From the depth of my heart l wish to thank those of you who supported me and gave me the nomination for County and Probate Judge. l want to thank you in advance for a continua- tion of your support. 1 also wish to say to those of my friends who did not support me for reasons of their own, and which I have no right to question. that 1 would not feel worthy of the honor conferred upon me, nor would be big enough for your County Judge if I should hold any i'll will against you merely because you voted against me. 1 want you to feel free at all times to discuss with me any and all matters pertaining to the of fee in which you have an interest. In other words if you want a good Coun- ty Judge give me your hearty cooper ation, if you do not I expect to make a good one any way.
 To my enemies l wish to say, that while l expect to give my friends preference where preference is due, 1 shall nevertheless give you 9 square deal.
 I have a9 apology to make for any thing I have said or done in this campaign, as | have tried to be fair with everyone and told you what l <tood for and what 1 was opposed to. I did not seek the endorsement of any un-demccyatic organization, but ran as I have always dCne on the democratic ticket. Therefore I can see no reason why any true democrat should consider it bitter pill to sup port the nominee in the general elec- tion.
 Especially do I want t9 thank the good ladies throughout the county for their support and goodwill, for I feel that no greater honor can be bestowed upon any man than to have the endorsement and goodwill of the ladies who know him.
 Yours very truly,

The hope of the rail strike settle ment seems further away than ever with both sides seemingly determined tc make a finish fight of it, the exc cCtives seeming more stubborn than the strikers. There is one force when aroused that can settle this strike quickly, and that is the public. The time is approaching when the pinch is going to be more and more felt by the public. There isn't any force tha. has ever yet been organized that can combat the pubic when it sets it's head and fully decides that it has had enough. That is why both sides are so anxious to influence the sym pathy of the public. The public will watch the combat with interest, and will even stand for a few of it's chairs and other furniture being knocked over, but just about the time t ap- pears that the scrappers will wreck the publics whole house, then the public will take hand It will not care so much which of the combat ants has the biggest club or the greatest grievance, but it is likely to take each by the scruff of the neck and propose to knock their heads to- gether unless they quit it. The pub lie takes a lot, but the public can do anything it wants to after the limit has been reached
