A day or two ago I picked 150 pounds of cotton, went 'possum hunting that night, caught two big 'possums and had them for dinner hext day. You may talk aboui all sorts of good things but when it oomes to a 'possum dinner there Is nothing that will beat it on this mnn dane sphere. All we farmers want is 15 cents for cotton and one dollar per hundred for cotton seed for this crop, that is all we want and that is all we ask. Everything else is high and why not give us a good price for our cot ton. W can’t see any reason why ex cept the greed of gain. The greed of gain has cost this world more in blood and tears than all other things known to the human race and I defy any one to prove the contrary. Iu Chins and Japan the people worship Images of foxes and other things but the peo ple of America worship the dollar. Every other living thing on this earth knows when it gets enough except man, but man never knows when he has got enough. Men who live in for eign lauds say they can always tell an American. Thev say when besets foot on foreign soil, he surveys the situation and wants everything in sight. There are being many remedies offered to break up gambling in cot ton futures and here let me suggest a remedy and that is this. Let Congress pass a law requiring every ens who sells any number of bales of cotton futures to produce the actual cotton receipts for said cotton, and when an> one buys so many bales of cotton fu tures let the man who sells the cotton futures deposit the receipts in the bank to be delivered at the expiration of the contract. This way the New York exchange selling and buying two or three hundred thousand bales of cotton every day in the year when (.hare is is nothing but paper end hot air to the whole thing is a shame. Let Congress smash it as short as pys urust. I'I.OWH ANDLkK. Editor Jacksonian.—lf you will kindly allow me a little space In your valuable paper I will eay that the Griffin road is not tne only oih Oedly in ned of repairing. If many citizens and our County Commissioners will just come and take a ride down on No. 2 they wot: and think it was a little rougher than going thro the roughest shoals on Ocmulgeo rivdr especially in some places and riding in a sidebar bugg> at that. We have been told that tin first time it rained the bad places would be worked, we think it has rained several times and they hav< not been worked yet, we would ap preciate it very much* And Mpi?alt. call their attention to the fact that some places must be worked as thev are now almost impassible. A crow can’t hardly fly over them in placea w>th( ut skying “It’s rough and I can’t hardly go,” We know the county is somewhat insolvent as t< financial affairs but they will soon b. or we hope so where they enn A< something towards these had*pines- We would suggest that thev t„k the present gang and go over ni hire extra labor as they can soon get plenty as crops are short and work out these^llttlebad places. We know that pulling down the hiile is a good thing alright enough but if they would stand out on the worat pUcrr there are and work them first it would be a great help to the public aud especially one who hat to go over the same old rough road every day which is almost roorh enough to shake a mans eye teeth out which D solid in his head much leas art old man with false teeth. Citizens say cotton and trade is going to Griffin which we know is true, so it is with the wool hat boys, down on the East side of the County, as your old sister city Monticello is turning out to be the best cotton market this fall. We would also call our Hon. Corn’s attention to the fact that the last Legislature passed a law to the eirectl that all roads where R. F. D. routes I were to D3 made first class and kept I ' f--t class shape, if not Uncle Sam* would have to discontinue tne service on that road, or it might be that all routes might he cut out owing to dis tance so some good old farmer would be deprived of his mail and a man would be out of a job. They out a fel lows route off 10 miles diatance over hare ia our sister state Alabama ow ing to bad roads, because you can't make time on a bad road that you can on a good one and we just have so long to make a trip regardless of roads. For fear of tne Editor throw ing my latter in the waste basket, will ring off hoping to ride on some better roade in placet soon. I am most Respt. one of your Tax payera and a Rough Rider, because I ride o ver some as rough roads a the Coun ty affords. R' F. D. Carrier No. 2. Couldn’t Stick Him Again. A bishop, accosted In Fifth avenue. New York, by a neat but hungry stran ger, took the needy one to a hotel and shared a gorgeous dinner with him, yet, having left Ills episcopal wallet In the pocket of a different episcopal jack et, suddenly faced the embarrassment of not possessing the wherewithal to pony up. "Never mind,” exclaimed his guest; "I have enjoyed dining with you. and I shall be charmed to shoulder tho cost Permit me.” Whereupon the stranger paid for two. This worried the prelate, who insisted, "Just let me call a cab and we'll ruu up to my hotel, where I shall have the pleasure of re imbursing you.” But the stranger met the suggestion with, "See here, old man, you’ve stuck me for a bully good dinner, but hanged If I’m going to let you stick me for car fare!” Mistake* f Drag Clarke. "There IB one loss sustained by drug gists that very' few people know about” said tbe experienced clerk. "That is lu the prescriptions that bar* to be made over, the same as clerks, stenographers, writers and artiste, no matter bow painstaking, frequently have to do their work over. The most careful drug clerk In existence is bound to make mistakes sometime# in measuring and mixing. "He may pour In too much of some kind of liquid or sift In too much of a certain powder. In most cases tho overdose would not really affect the value of the medicine, but the consci entious clerk Isn't going to take any chances of murdering uuybady, sc* he throws away tbe whole mixture and makes up another prescription.” "Try One ef My Betefe.** In Siam they doa't offer you a cigar or a cigarette, but a betel nut There every one carries a supply of them In a neat little Ivory box. not unlike the snuffboxes of our nnccetors.
