I COTTON INDUSTRY
I IS DEPRESSED.
There has been a depression in the
cotton trade which ie accounted for
by thf decrease In the numbrr of spin
ning spindles In operation. Fifteen
per cent of the sixty million spindles
in Great Britain am Idle.
The total consumption of cotton In
Great Britain for the year ending Juij
'81, 1920, was slightly over 3,000,000
bales, of which 2,000.000 bales wero
American. The consumption of the.
United States was over 6,000.000 and
i that of Japan 2,000,000 bales. Of 164 .
000, 000 spindles in the world less than
138,000,000 are active at the present
time. Depression In the British cotton
industry still continues, It being re
ported that in one Lancashire town
alone, seventeen mills art- closed down
for lack of orders, and orcanlzed short
f time is again being seriously discussed
There is a world-wido let down to
industry, due. in great part, to the rap
1 id readjustments under way. Prices
I are falling and production Is beinc cur
tailed.
I PRICES DROPPING

Ab -showing the drift of prices in
Chicago. Bradstreet's present the fol
lowing figures
Prices for leather are 38 to 58 per
cent lower than in AuRu-t, 119, and
28 to 48 per cent under those of Sep
temher, 1919. Raw material has de
cllned 64 to 80 per cent since August,
1919, while the rise since August,
1914. Is 28 to 147 per cent Shoe man
ufacturers throughout tli. 6tll6ifjb

about 50 per cent of normal capacity
Lumber Is off about 25 to N jef cerit
from laBt yenr, but is higher than Itil
pre-war level, and remain Is 12l2 to
35 per cent lower, while common bric k
remains as high as laftl Near, the In
creased cost of fuel, labor and trans
portatlon preventinc derHnes in Bftcl
prlceB.
Replies to questionnaires sent out by ,
the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago I
show net sales of wholesale dry goods j
lb September increased .oj per cent as ,
compared with lust year: clothing, i
150; tailoring, 33, and cmi-eric. ill,
while shoes decreased 21 per cenL
Cancellations of dry goods were 12 per
cent.
The rapid decline in prices Is no
lice to the cautious retailer that he
must begin to clear hiB shelves or he
will be naught with high price goods.
At present there Is no way of fore
casting when the bottom will be
reached.
I GREECE ONCE MORE
A MONARCHY.
Greece has turned back the wheels
of progress. Having had ihe opportu
nity of being a republic or a monarchy,
the Greeks decided to have a king.
Preferring a reactionary to Premier
Venixelos, they made a decision which
once more places Greece, in sentiment
at least, on the side of the central
powers.
Only after a most desperate strug
gle, Venlielos gave Greece to the side
of the allies in the great war. That
famous statesman endangered his own
llfo to keep the sister of the kaiser
from throwing Greek troops against
the allies at Salonika The allies hav
ing won in the war, the welfare of
Greece was looked after in the award
ing of territory' on ethnological lines.
But notwithstanding this generous
treatment, on the first appeal to ihe
people, the verdict was against Veni
zelos and the allies.
I There hs evidence to justify the con j
elusion that within ten years Ger
many with new and old alliances, will I
be sufficiently powerful to again as
sert herself and perhaps dominate in
the affairs of Europe. At present Ger
man officers are reported operating
with the Bolshevrki in Russia. This
may forecast a close understanding be
tween Germany and Russia Italy has
been dissatisfied over the Flume
award, and now It is in order for Italy
to turn once more to the remnants of
the central powers
With Great Britain and France de
veloping mistrust and Bome friction, it
is not Impossible for the allies to fall
apart, and then Germany will be in po
sition to demand a modification of the
treaty of peace.
I IDAHO'S $50,000,000
IRRIGATION PROJECT.
From Washington comes a correc
tion of the statement published last
week that Secretary Payne of the inte
rior department had approved a proj
ect to build a $60,000,000 dam at Amer
ican Falls, Idaho, which would im
pound water sufficient to reclaim a
million acres of land in the Snake rlv
er valley. The secretary simply said
he would urge congress to appropriate
money for the dam, if the undertaking
received satisfactory assurances of fl
nancial backing from various irriga
tion districts in the Snake river valley
t
Preliminary to the working out of de
tails, the interior department has au
thorUod a F.urvcy to be made
A dispatch from Washington sayi
"in the event the American Falls
project Is approved, the government,
for itself, will take over one unit, and
reclaim 100,000 acres lying near Mini
doka, for development under a soldier
Settlement plan, for the benefit of ex
servico men, nnd congress would be
asked to advance the cost of this por
iinn Aside from that, however, prl
vate interests must hear the construe
tlon costs, and must come forward
with a satisfactory showing of their
ability to rnlsr their respective shares
of the total cost. This apportlonmen'
being based on the areas named in
contracts recently submitted by the
secretary of the interior. As a mat
ter of fact the project on which gov
ernment engineers are figuring doe
not embrace the Bruneau project, re
garding which there has been much
publicity, and to date the secretary
has declined to approve the state seg
regation of the 500,(100 acres covered
by this project."
There are great tracts of land In
Idaho to be brought under cultivation
and, If the government has large sums
of money to expend In the making ot
now homes, the opportunity Is there
presented to create new wealth to be
enjoyed by the willing workers who
are building up America, but. with the
land cry for economy, it is doubtful
that the federal congress will do much
more, than pave the way for private
capital.
WHAT WILL THE NEW
ADMINISTRATION DO?
In the new administration, William
H Taft will have much influence, as
he campaigned for Senator Harding
land was one of his close advisers
Soon after the election, in treating on
ihe league of nations nnd the policy to
i be pursued by Harding, the former
president said:
"But the question of seining the
rights between Germany and the Unit
led States will still remain It will be
much easier to fix these rights by
building the new association of na
Hons on the remnant of tile league left
after the objeet Innable pannes are
eliminated, than to altempi an eniir. I
bl organization. Thf Irealy Itself
provides thai amendments 16 the
leneue shall not lb any way Interfere
with the obligation of Germany to th
treatv as a whole When h- leagm
and trealy have been purged of their
objectionable features In accord with
the republican reservations, and with
Mr Harding's pollc as declared in his
campaign speeches. It is hard to see
what objection there can be to settling
he terms of peace by ratifying the
treaty with all these changes."

JAY WALKERS.
The men who drive the ehooehoo!
boate are pinched and fined some uso-
ful groats, when they're discovered '
speeding and all the witnesses ap
plaud when Juetlce soaks them for j
their wad they get Just what they're
Heeding. The motorl6ts are much to
blame, and folks are always crying,
"Shame"' We daily hear their drool
lngs; but half the trouble on tho street
is caused by Jays why ply their feer
without regard to rulings The man
on foot breaks all the laws, breaks ev
ery rule that ever was, nor carea a
cheap Buspender; and when my auto
runs him down, and spreads his frag
ments through the town, I find Pre
no defender. The people gather round
my car and talk of feathers and of tar
In tones that throb with passion; the
man on foot's a sacred Jav; the motor
1st is wroDg alway: and stiff fines are
the fashion I drive my car with cease
less care, and yet I'm always In de
spair. Jay walkerB are so busy; the)
get before my chugging, wain, as
though determined to be slain, the
are so brash and dizzy. They cross
the street where'er they please, be
tween tho moving cars they squeeze,
they dodge at every angle; and when
I've driven for a mile I can no longer

THE REASON.
I've never forgotten my father's sign
When I aBked for things which he
couldn't buy,
I've never forgotten the tender way
He would look at me, and the words
ho'd say:
"Oh, I'd like to buy for you every toy,
But the times are hard, and I can't,
my boy."
I think that I vaguely understood
He'd have bought those things If he
only could,
I think that I knew that it hurt Inside
When a wish of mine had to be denied.
For strange lines came to his gentle
brow
And he'd say, "I can't, my boy. Just
now."
Now they're telling me that I'm spoil
ing him
By granting his every wish and whim,
But there's something more that they
do not know
A lesson learned in the long ago,
When the times were hard and my
father sighed
When a wish of mlno had to be denied
I know what it means to a little boy
To want and seldom possess a toy.
And I know how It hurts a father so
When the times are hard and he must
say "No,"
But once in the past I made a vow'
That my boy should have what I
missed, somehow.

he had Stepped behind the pulpit of

out preliminaries announced his text
from one of David's psalms, but mere
ly to make the vers? a point of de
parture soon amid: "David wai a man
after Ood's heart for two reason:
first, ho always went to church, sec
ondlv he hated his enemies."
The doctrine seemed to give com

With such an Idea of religion the

apainst ourselves, for this way of mak

How many of us build our practice
Into our creed, and color our portrait
of Ood with self-interest? It Is easy
lo believe what suits us; to interpret
duty by social customs and family tra-j
dltlons to conclude that what pays
possesses virtue; to bend religion to,
business and make God an annex to
Olir private plans.
But salving, or even believing that'
God operates according to our selfish

In cases of ordinary "Itch" sulphur
in some form or other Is usually an
effective remedy Care must be tak
