BUSINESS OUTLOOK GOOD.
A people who sell more than
they can buy cannot be in a very
hard situation, whatever may be
the periods of depresaion and strin
genry so we can take heart of
grace from th e official figure* just
given out which show that during
the first seven months of the pres
ent year we have bought thirty
per cent less than during the cor
re*i«>nding months last year while
at the game time our exports
show an Increase of one hundred
and seventy-nine millions as com
pared with the same month* last,
year.
This gives us ever y assurance
of a very satisfactory trade bal
ancc, when the business accounts
for the year are made up. says the
Atlanta Journal
On the whole we are told that
the substance of the trade reports
for the week, submitted by the
mercantile agencies. Is that trade
and Industrial activity continues
to increase very nottcably will,
every indication of permanent Im
provement.
Here at home the same optimis
tic sentiment prevails. A few
days ago a prominent business man
from south Georgia was quoted as
saying that. from present lndica
tiona there would be the greatest
ear famine within a short time
that the state has ever seen. This
prediction was based dlrectiy upon
the lumber Industry, but It Is gen
erally accepted as being equally
true of all other lines of business.
The uncertainty which prevails
as to the future of freight rates
i, about the only dlsturbftng fac
tor there U today In the business
and industrial life ot our people. If
we could be sure that 'he existing
statu* would rot be disturbed by
an Increase In rate, during the
period when business Is doing it*
best to recover, we would noon
forget that ther,. had been anjr
»uch thing a* * panic.
Merchant* and manufacturer*
are meeting the situation with
confidence, however, and good fall
trade 1* firmly anticipated.

Messrs. Jim Farr and Harry Morria,
directors of tho Augunta Baneball ebtii
who represented this oily at. the longue
meeting, returned Wednemhiy mo ml nit
from Hnvanmih. having been delayed.
A resolution was adopted authorizing
an application for renewal of the league

ably he so amended, In Its formal word

both will next year ho members of th«‘
South Atlantic league. The Southern
league was anxious lo get Chattanooga,
and It whh up to the directors to act
quickly, ns application for membership
Ui the other circuit would probably have
been made Saturday. The CohuuhuK
representation guaranteed support of the
club for at least on* year, having sub
scribed already the sum of sf>,3oo, ami
Chattunongn promised unlimited back
ing.
The player limit has been reduced to
12 men, hh before stated In Tb© Herald,
but the salary limit remains at $1,900.
The principal discussion was regard
Ing ways and mentis of rldlgly enforcing
the salary limit. The sentiment of alt
directors present seemed to he that if
the limit was dlresgnrded next y<or, ns
It was Ihts. the league would blow up.
It wasn’t up to any on© director to ac
cuse another, as practically every club
In the hague went above the proscrib
ed pay-roll.
After much consideration, It was de
elded that the best way to Insure an en
forcement of the limit ens to require
every club secretary and treasurer to
submit, at the end of each month, a
PAGE FIVE
sworne affidavit of the amount of Ida
pay roll. Further, if any player r«-
reives a bonus, he will he declared fro*»
to sign with any club that makes him ait
offer.
The next league meeting will he held
In Savannah In January. It seems to
he the general belief that President
Moyer wtll be re-elected, although htai
friends realise that he will have strong
opposition from one or two enures. Noth
ing was said about his salary.
