President Harvle Jordan was to have
been present, but was detained at
home. E. D. Smith, president of the
8outh Carolina association and gen
eral organiser of the Southern associa
tion. and Congressman J. T. Heflin
made speeches. It was one of the most
enthusiastic meetings ever held by the
association.
Mr. 8mtth said that India could not
compete with the South In raising cot
ton. He said there was only one place
where the fine staple of the South could
be raised, and that was In u small place
in Africa, but by the time that was
mnde a producing country the cotton
question will have been settled.
t'ongressman J. T. Heflin stated that
he had presented a bill In congress
to appropriate $50,000 to have agents
In China to put the American cotton
on the market there. He said he did
not get the $30,000. but did get 920,000,
and only a few' days ago received a
letter from Secretary Wilson, of the
agricultural department, stating that
these agents had been employed. He
said he was going to Introduce another
bill In congress asking for the appro
priation of $60,000 more.
Congressman Heflin said he had In
troduced a bill In congress to do away
with the bucket shops and to make It

Books Will Be Closed Octo-
ber 10—Little Paid
This Week.
"There will be a large Increase In the
amount of city taxes this year over

rease can not be aacertnlned until
after that time.”
During the past few days, the tax
payers have shown but little interest
in the city hall, their attention being
taken up with the all-absorbing events
which have passed In rapid saccession:
but now that the excitement has died
out, there will be something of a rush
to the tax collector’s office.

POLITICIAN IS KILLED
BY CHICAGO DRUMMER.
INDIG NANI AT MAYOR,
CO. F WANTS TO QUI7
Indignant because Mayor Dobbs had
a case made against Captain Fred Mor
ris, of the Marietta company, because
a riot call wax turned In Saturday
night to assemble the men for service
In Atlanta, It la said that *he Marietta
company will ask to be mustered out
of service.
When the call came from Atlanta
Saturday night for the Marietta com
pany, Captain Morrle had the riot call
rung In order to get hie men together
quickly. This wae done In Rome, and
probably other pieces, but the authori
ties made no objection, because they
realised the gravity of the situation.
Mayor Dobbs, however, determined to
make a case against Captain Morris,

and did ao. Officers of the adjutant
generar* office are severe In censuring
the mayor for thin action.
They say that Captain Morris acted
properly in doing as he did, and that
he ought to be*commended, instead of
censured. The Marietta company did
valiant service here. They were the
first to be sent to Brownsville, nnd
throughout the trying times In Atlanta
have conducted themselves like soldiers
and gentlemen.
The company, after being on duty
almost constantly since Saturday night,
were relieved and went home Wednes
day morning. It Is understood that
Captain Morris Is deeply hurt by the
action of Mayor Dobbs, and may re
sign from service, together with his
men.
