Cotton is humping itself now,
and may do wonders* yet. The
weevil seems to be giving up his
job, as there is but little left of
him now. It is impssoible to tell
what Texas weather will do,
what decision a jury will render,

how an election will go, who a
woman will fall in love with, or
what a cotton crop will make—
all we can do is to hope, for the
best, do our duty ^nd trust to
Providence for results.
