Its membership has shown it tdionnmoiinl Increase In every direction, mid It Is generally conceded by nil (hat to Farmers' V it lull stand for 11-eeiit cotton Is due mere than anything else the fact that up to this tlmotthc average selling price ot cotton has lieen far In excess of Id cents. Had our organlaiitloit stood for 10-cent cot ton the price In nil probability would never have gone beyond that figure. As it result of the uncompromising and the loyal stand of the meuiliers of our or gnnlxntlon, and those who have worked with It we have seen the price of cotton enved II cents several times during the sen sen, while the average price of all cot ton so far sold has gone Iteyoinl the limit of that we were asked to et. na organisation with every branch of Indus try or commerce organised to purchase the product of tho farmer as cheaply as possi ble.

HAD INTERVIEW June 13 Will Be Georgia Day at Exposition in Jamestown. "Speak on Georgia day at the Jamestown Exposition? Why, I’m bound to take part on that day, be cause I am half Georgian, you know. Nothing would give me ,more pleas ure." That Is the sentiment In which Pres ident Roosevelt received President W. N. Mitchell, of the Georgia commission to the Jamestown Exposition, last Wed nesday morning. , He was as enthusiastic about the proposition when It was suggested to him by President Mitchell as a school boy, and for over a half hour he dis cussed the matter and seemed loath for the Interview to terminate. It was last Wednesday morning at 11:30 o'clock that Mr. Mitchell called on the president and submitted the proposition for him to speak on thp day at the big exposition set aside for the Empire State of the South. The president Is an old friend of Mr. Mitch ell, who knew him as a boy, and when Georgia. Georgia day and Bulloch Hail, the old home of the president's mother, were mentioned. President Rookevelt showed hla delight at the f>lan. The president said that nothing would give him more pleasure than to deliver an address on Georgia day from the reproduction of his mother’s home. Nothing Jn hJs administration had pleased him so much as the honor done his devoted mother by the decision of Georgia to reproduce her old home at the exposition. The president saw a group of callers waiting in the ante-room, but he was conversing upon a subject dear' to his Jieart. He was interested and he showed It in an enthusiastic manner. He was enthusiastic when he declared to Mr. Mitchell that he was half Geor gian, and he was deeply touched at the honor paid his mother by the Geor gia commission. He declared he was president of the whole country and not of any section or part. After the interview Mr. Mitchell saw Hon. Harry St. George Tucker, presi dent of the Jamestown Exposition, and had the second week In June selected as the week In which Georgia day would be named. President Roosevelt said ho would be at liberty at this time, and said further that either June 12, 13 or 14 would suit him. President Tucker was of the opinion that June 12 had been set aside for Virginia, and then Mr. Mitchell asked that June 13 be named as Georgia day, Mr. Mitchell will make arrangements so that the governor of Virginia, his staff and the Virginia national guard will remain over for Georgia day, and these, with the Georgia delegation, will make Georgia day one of the largest and most Imposing of the exposition. BLEW OUT HIS BRAINS AS SHIP HIT ROCKS Captain Could Not Bear Disgrace and Loss of Post. Kingston, Jamaica, Dec. 13.—The pas sengers have all been landed safely from the Hamburg-American line tour. 1st steutnshlp Prinsessln Victoria Lulse, which went ashore off Port Royal, and the body of Captnln H. Brunswig, who blew out his brains after the accident, has boon taken In charge by the local authorities. Tho Lulse lies In an easy position, and the German cruiser Bremen and the French training ship Duguay-Trou- in, which were In the harbor, today were trying to pull her off. When the vessel struck and the pas sengers poured out of their cabins In panic, Captain Brunswig shouted to them that there was no danger. Then he walked from the bridge, ^entered his cabin nnd locked hlmseJr in. A few minutes later the first officer heard pistol shot, ftnd, forcing open the door, found the captain dead, with a bullet In his brain. Captain Brunswig bad been with the Hamburg-American line for two years. Ho had said that this was to be his last trip on the Prlnsessln. and he In timated that on hla return to Now York tho directors of tho line were to give him the command of tbo big trans- Atlantic liner, The Bluecher, running between New York and Hamburg. His new command meant an advance In honor and pay. The wreck of the Prlnxessln meant loss of honor nnd the certainty of dis grace.

The change has been recommended by tho federal Inspectors and It Is understood that she will be sent to the United States penitentiary In Atlanta.
