My Pear Mr. McNeil: Peplying to your letter of the of July, let mo say that it is always with the utmost, hesitation that 1 venture to express an opinion ahoiit candidates J'or election, either to the Senate or House, hecause I feel that it is not from any point of view my privilege to suggest to the voters of a state what, their action shall he.

Put upon questions of fact I am at liberty to speak. You call my attention to certain statements made on hehalf of Senator Yardman, in which an effort is made to create the impression that I would not regard the return of Senator Yarda-nian to the Senate as a verdict against the present administration. Such statements are calculated to put a very false face upon Senator Yar-danian's eandidacv. SENATOR VARDAMAN HAS BEEN CONSPICUOUS AMONG THE DEMOCRATS IN THE SENATE FOR HIS OPPOSITION TO THE ADMINISTRATION. If the voters of Mississippi should again choose him to represent them, I not only have no right to object I would have no right'in any way to criticise them.

BUT I SHOULD BE OBLIGED TO ACCEPT THEIR ACTION AS A CONDEMNATION OF MY ADMINISTRATION, AND IT IS ONLY RIGHT THAT THEY SHOULD KNOW THIS BEFORE THEY ACT. Very truly yours, An)0T7fi0WWlLK0NT. Mr. Myron S. McNeil, At torney at Law, Nazlehurst, Miss.

The seed cotton Is unloaded and conveyed to tho vacuum box yair, then It drops on the spiked distributor belt which conveys it it to the cleaner feeders located over each gin stand where the dirt nnd trash Is removed; then the cleaned seed cotton drops Into the roll box from which the lint Is drawn throuU'h the ribs by the saws and separated from the seed, the lint polnir Into the lint filue through which It passes to the condenser, from which It drops into the baling press In bats.

No doubt many of you remember when, not so many years ago, before the public gin came Into existence, each plantation had lis own gin outfit, u.sinilly consisting of one gin stand operated by horse power. This was, of course, a very slow proc.es. The power for driving the gin was generated by hitching a horse or mule to one end of a long lever, the other I end of which was attached to a round wooden shaft matin from the trunk of a tree, set perpendicular, one end resting on the ground Moor of the gin house and the other end extending to 110) 110) nv v. r. The following talk on "The Cotton Oinnlna; wu miidn beforn a recent session of the notary Club by Mr, V.

F. Kherrod, stale miinner of the Illuwalha Manufacturing Company: It Is today a matter of doubt as to when and where cotton wns first produced for Industrial purposes, Throughout history there mo references, though viiKiie, Of a plant "which, Instead of fruit, produces wool of a finer and better (juallty than that of sheep." It Is an established fact ihut the earlier people of China, Persia, Indian and Kitypt had In early times been engaged In tho cultivation of cotton and the weaving of It Into cloth. Columbus found the cotton plant growing wild Is the Inlands of the West Jndes and the records show Hint, the natives were using It for car-ments and for fishing nets. Magellan discovered the people of Ttniy.il, loo, using the fibre for domestic purposes, while Cortc found the manufacture of cotton well advanced In Mexico a id sent back curiously woven garments of cotton fibre to King Charles V. All evidences show that the cotton Plant Is Indigenous to th tropical and aeml-lroplcal regions of both hemispheres, lis first notice In the T'rilled Ktatea was In 1736 when one of the earl-teat explorers found It growing In what Is now Louisiana.

We have many references lo its cultivation In this country from that time on, but none whatever of Its cultivation bv tho American rolonlsts until In K.7. Kven In 1721 (here were only Ci'ln bales raised In tho United Klalea. Cotton, although urown for domestic purposes, was not recognlred us audi a very profitable crop until the American revolution and It is from this period that we study the development of It from an economic standpoint. It is from this period that we recognize the beginning of its power, so to speak, and we find It gradually growing until today It Is recognized In our fair Houth as "King." The American colonies up until the revolution depended upon our mother country for cloth and clothing. When we broke away from her the colonies were left free to produce what they wished and to market where they chose.

The culture of tobacco had rapidly declined because of the depletion of the soil due to sucessive cop-plrtif without rotation. This, added to the necessity of the home made tiro-ducts for clothing, led the colonists to the cultivation of cotton on a more extensive ecale. Utle Advance Made Even until the revolution the methods employed for removing the fibre from the seed differed little to those employed by the most primitive people. The hand loom and spinning wheel were still a necessary part of every household equipment. The greateal obstacle lo the rapid development of the cotton Industry was the lack of adequate means of separating the fibre from the seed.

And here In the South less than 7a years ago whole families toiled to clean a few pounds of lint a day. The greatest achievement in tho whole history of the cotton Industry was the Invention of the cotton gin for separating the fibre from the sed.
