The prices of today indicate that the market will open in Sep­tember higher than the opening , in September of last year. Just one year ago all business was un- * settled by the breaking out of the * European war; everything was in t a state of uncertainty, and tlie market opened with the prices down to six and seven cents per * pound. While the war has con- » tinued, business has somewhat ad- f

justed itself to new conditions, J admittedly unsatisfactory some respects, but with less grop­ing in the dark. There is more * money in America than a year ago, brought here by the exports of grain and stock. Then, loo, , the cotton acieage reduction is at ' least 15 per cent and crop condi- <

THINK ANOTHER LARGEVOTE WILL BE POLLED

If candidates have any effect on the voter, which it is highly possible they will have, the vote at the second piimary on Tues­day, August 24, will be as large

that polled on August 3. Can­didates are doing all in their pow­er to bring a large number of vo­ters to the polls on that day, and there are several interesting con­tests on in the various offices. It generally happens that there is not much interest manifested in the second primary, but it is ex­pected there will be this year.
