Its execution brought the session to a dramatic end. with La Follette fight ing vainly for a chance to deliver a speech on which he had worked many days He saw friends of the doomed legislation inflict the death blow which be planned.

Senator La Follette entered the senate chamber shortly after. • o’clock Sunday morning prepared to 'take the center of the Stage When the moment he had chosen arrived, he addressed the chair, but Sen ator Hitchcock prevented his recogni tion. The closing moments of the session were tense and impressive. Ten min utes before the end Senator Hitchcock had made hie last appeal for unanimous consent for a vote on the bill. Fol lette objected. MINORITY IS SCORED. The Nebraska senator, prefacing his dosing remarks with a portion of Pres ident Wilson s address to congress ask ing for the authority about to be de nied. solmnly said:* “It Is unfortunate arid deplorable that twelve men in the senate of the United States have it in their power to defeat the will of seventy-five or eigflty mem bers by one of the most reprehensible filibusters ever recorded in the history - an/ civilized country.” •Senator Hitchcock paused while his words echoed through the chamber.

RED CROSS DRUG STOKE. Per .1. M Carlisle, Prop.. JuK 32nd. 191* Carrollton. Ga. j ers worked unceasingly to prevent in evitable defeat of the bill. Senators Simmons. Pomerene. Hughes. Hardwick mu’ other Democrats joined with Repub lican Senators Lodge. Borah! Brande gee. Sutherland. Smoot and others to reach a compromise with Chairman Stone, or the foreign relations commit tee. and the Progressive Republican group. Several times they had reason to hope fer some result, but after mid night they practically abandoned the fight and prepared the manifesto to record the real sentiment of the senate on the subject. LAY FOR LAFOLLETTE. After abandoning hope the defeated senators determined to make Senator La Follette pay for his coup by sacri ficing the crowning fruits of his vic tory. During the early morning hours they worked out the plan to prevent him from delivering his address to the senate. The time was fixed for 10 o’clock Sunday morning, when most of the senators would be back in the cham ber ready for adjournment. La Follette, looking fresh and eager, entered the chamberr while Senato Owen was speaking. He did not appear to be cognizant of the fact shat the Democrats were ready for him. When Senator Owen started to take his seat both Hitchcock and La Follette address ed the chair. Senator Saulsbury, pre siding, under the rules, would be com pelled to compelled to recognize the man who addressed him first. The chair rec ognized Senator Hitchcock, but La Fol lette interrupted. “At 8 o’clock this morning.” he said, "when I sought recognition I was told that when the vice president left the chair he had left a list with the names of two senators upon it who might be recognized before I could be recognized. Thev were Senators Owen and Hitch cock. I recall that sometimes these lists are disregarded by presiding offi cers. and I would like to know if I am to he recognized.’’ He made this state ment as a parliamentary Inquiry and Senator Robinson immediately made a point of order that It was not a proper inquiry under the senate rules. Ia Follette’s voice began to rise. “I do not care,” he shouted, “what point of order the senator makes.” The Arkansas senator insisted on ad dressing the chair again and La Fol lette moved out into the well before the clerks’ deek. DELIVERS A THREAT. The almost deserted senate chamber quickly began to fill. Democrats, many of them warned of the coup about to be sprung, hurried In with confident smiles to enjoy the spectacle of seeing a filibuster pitted against ’a filibuster, Follette, quickly sensing the situa tion raised his voice almost to a shriek, and shaking his forefinger menacingly at Senator Saulsbury, shouted: "1 will continue on this floor until I complete my statement unless some body carries me off the floor, and I would like to see the man do it.” ■ Before Ia Follette could conclude the sentence Senator Robinson leaped to bis feet and stamped down the aisle on the Democratic side, shouting demands, that his point of order be sustained and | that La Follette be forced to his seat. Senator Saulsbury promptly sustain . ed the point of order and La Follette as promptly appealed from his ruling. Sen ator Robinson quickly moved to table La Follette’s appeal —an undebatable mo tion—and there the coup against 1-a Fol lette was clinched. The ayes and noes."i shouted Senator Ashhurst. His name heads the list and always starts the roll call. ’’Ashurst.’ called the clerk, while IA Follette frantically appealed for the recognition which he saw was doomed. Ashhurst reeponded with a roaring “aye.” The motion carried 52 to 15. Thus beaten in his plan to talk the bill to death. I-a Follette was forced to sit and hear Senator Hitchcock discuss the measure until congress expired. Restive under the restraint, the Wis-| consln senator drummed on his desk, chewed his unlit cigar and interrupted frequently with statements about his [ t-onstiiutional rights. At least three times however, when a unanimous con sent agreement was proposed for a vote before noon he objected. He appealed unavailingly to Senator Hitchcock to I ■ive him an opportunity ty be heard. New Orleans Cotton Exchange Is Squarely Behind President Wilson <B» Aaaociatad Frees. > NEW ORLEANS.

THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, MARCH 6, 1917 Prizes Offered for Best Selected Seed at State And Southeastern Fairs ATHENS. Ga.. March A voidest between members of the Georgia I Breeder.*’ association at tile State fair j at Macon .and at .the Southeastern fail lai Atlanta this tall lias been arr:»uge«l jin Professors John R. Fain, vice presi -1 dent, and L. E. Rast, secretary of the association. Cash prizes will lie award led for the best exhibits of planting < seed of cotton, corn. oats, wheat, rye. tel'.et beans and peanuts. It will be necessary for nieitiuers who wish to participate in the contest lo have an official representative the association inspect their plants from which they expect to save seed, to de termine tnev are typical of the variety claimed. In making th* exaibit at the fairs, not only a sample of # the seed will be required, but also an exhibit of the plants from which the seed were saved must be made. The Secretary o! the association on request will g'.ve full instructions for preparing these exhib its There is uu line of work whien of fers greater opportunities for accom plishment ol results and urer li-iancril reward for time invested than does the improvement of plants by seed selec tion. Almost any characteristt- can .>e bred into plants by a few year’s work of careful selection of seed. in i iew of the invasion of the boll weevil. »arlv maturing cotton is very essential. As an example of what- may be accom plished in increasing the date of ma turrity of cotton plants. Professor Rast on the experiment plats at the State College of Agriculture planted side by side two rows of cotton, one row x.'ith seed selected from early maturing de sirable plants, the other row with seed from plants which were not of the de sired early maturing type, but other wise. were apparently equally desirable Both rows were planted on April ID. When the cotton was picked, Septem ber 22. five and one-half months from date of planting, the row planted wi'h seed from early maturing type of plants produced seed cotton at the rate of 2.125 pounds per acre. The other row only 340 pounds per acre. The val ue of the one type of plant over the other for production under boll weevil conditions is evident. It Is possible to improve almost any feature, for example. Professor Rast has for the past three years been se lecting cotton seed with the view of increasing their oil yielding and nitro gen content. As a result he has suc ceeded in demonstrating that seed from some strains of cotton will produce from 10 to 15 gallons more oil per ton of seed than will seed from other strains, and that these high oil yield ing strains are also heavy producers of lint cotton. The Georgia Breeders’ association has been working for a few' years improving general farm crops by seed selection, and as a result of the Improvements ac complished, dispose of their seed for planting purposes to their neighbors at attractive prices. One member has sold more than S4OO worth of improved cot ton seed to one man alone. The associa tion published a -list of the members who have effected real improvements in their plants and are offering seed for sale, but the value of these Improve ments is so manifest it Is frequently the case, all of the seed offered for sale is engaged by local planters long be fore the crop is harvested. Any member who wishes to compete for the prizes offered by the association, or any farmer who would like to be come a member of the association should communicate with Professor I* E. Rast.

INY WILSON MEASURES LEFT OVER BY CONGRESS Only Two Important Bills Got Through Legislative Tan gle at Close | WASHINGTON. Match 5. —Os all the I legislation on the administration nro ' gram proper only two measures, the ! revenue bill and the niea-sure giving I civil government to Porto Rico and American citizenship to its inhabitants, got through the legislative tangle at thb close of the session. One of the most important enactments of the three months of the session, the immigration bill, passed both houses despite the president's announced objection, and then was passed again by both over his veto. Among the administration bills which failed were: Measures to supplement the Adamson law. * The bill io enlarge the interstate com merce commission. The Webb bill to legalize joint for eign selling agencies. Conservation legislation, including the general dam bills and water power hills. Rills which did not form part of the original program, but were pressed un successfully by cabinet officers and ad ministration leaders late in the session, included: Amendments to the shipping act to give the president poyer to comman deer ships. A drastic espionage bill which passed jhe senate, but never was taken up in the house. Amendments to the federal reserve act to increase reserve bank gold hold ings and decrease member bank re serves. Congress provided for the payment of $25,000,000 for the Danish West In dies. but the senate failed to ratify, despite an urgent request by the presi dent, the treaty to pay Colombia $15,- oo" 000 for the separation of Panama. Important enactment which tvere not specifically included in the program were the bill abolishing saloons in the District of Columbia, and the rider on the postofflee appropriation bill making it a crime to transport liquor in interstate commerce into a prohibi tion state. Although the senate filibuster stopped the passage of appropriation bills carry ing in all about $511,000,000, congress managed to get through in its- three months’ session ten other supply meas ures, with a total of nearly $1,200,000.- 000. Appropriation measures that failed in cluded: The army appropriation bill carrying $270,000,000. The sundry civil appropriation bill, carrying $139,000,000. The general deficiency. $62,000,000. The rivers and harbors. $39,000,000. The military academy. $1,380,000. The bills passed were: Naval, $535,000,000. v Postofflee, $330,000,000. Invalid pensions, $160,000,000. Legislative, executive and judicial, $4,000,000. Fortifications, $51,000,000. District of Columbia, $13,000,000. Indian. $12.000.000., Diplomatic and consular, $5,000,000. Urgent deficiency, $5,000,000. Among the measures to which the president attached his signature were the naval and agricultural appropria tion bills, a resolution providing for a $150,000,000 bond issue to speed up warship construction, a bill postponing until July 1 the effectiveness of the pro hibition feature of the postofflee bill; a resolution appropriating $3,000,000 to continue work on the Alaskan railroad, and more than a score of minor resolu tions and bills. . The last measure signed provided a pension for the jvidow of Major Gen eral Frederick Funston. NITMTE PLANT BOlffl TO JE HERE MARCHS Claims of Atlanta and Other Georgia Cities to Be Presented The army and navy board of the eov»rnni»nt which is investigating pro posed sites for the government nitrate plant, will be in Atlanta on Marcji 9, from 9 o’clock in the morning to noon. This information was received by Wai teer G. Cooper, secretary of the At lanta chamber of commerce, Thursday in a telegram from Captain C. L. Sturde vant. U. S. A., district engineer in charge of the* Chattahoochee and Coosa rivers. Secretary Cooper immediately tele graphed the board in Washington offer ing it the assembly hall of the chamber in which to hold its meeting. Secretary of War Baker, Secretary of the Interior Lane and Secretary of Ag riculture Houston, are the members of the board. In addition to hearing members of the committee ’ from the local chamber of commerce, delegations from neigh boring cities which are interested in the location of the plant have been invited to be in Atlanta for the hearing. Franklin, Columbus and West Point will have delegations present, and it is ex pected that several other cities will send representatives. The United States has recently com pleted a survey of the Chattahoochee river from a point north of Atlanta as far as Franklin, near which it is urged that one of the proposed dams be erect ed. The other two sites suggested are at West Point and between West Point and Columbus. It has been shown that by the erec tion of these three dams that water in excess of one hundred thousand horse power can be furnished and that the probable cost of making, this power available is less than in any other sec tion of the country.

Atlanta Shivers in Cold Wave as Icy Gales Drive Mer- v cury to 21 Degrees Reports from flood areas in the south Monday were more reassuring and in dications at noon were that the damage would not be great. The general rains of the last few days which have caused high water In at least fifteen rivets in Tennessee, Georgia, Ala bama. North Carolina and Virginia, had ceased and a sharp drop in the temper ature appeared to have relieved the sit uation considerably. At Chattanooga where the Tennessee river has overflown Its banks and forc ed many people living in low lying sec tions from their homes, the greatest suf fering is expected to be caused by the cold. The floods’* crest Is expected to reach Chattanooga Wednesday. The Cumberland river was half a foot above flood stage at Nashville Monday morning and was rising steadily. Al though a few families may be forced from their homes only a moderate flood is expected. Reports from other flood sections in dicate that the situation is not alarm ing The Little Pigeon river, further to the east, also was out and the Cumberland river at Nashville was almost at flood stage with an overflow forecast for to morrow. In Alabama the Coosa and Tallapoosa rivers, which form the Alabama river, with the latter and the Cahaba, Black. Warrior and Tombigbee had overflowed.* The property loss around those rivers will be heavy, according to reports, but much live stock had been moved to high ground and there were no reports of fatalities. AT FLOOD STAGE. The Chattahoochee. Oconee and Oc mulgee rivers in south Georgia also were at flood stage this morning, while the Neuse and Roanoke rivers in North Carolina were expected to go out today. The Catawba, which overflowed last summer with a heavy toll of life and property, went out last night, carrying away a railroad and highway bridge. In Virginia the James river and smaller contributory streams were ris ing rapidly with floods predicted for today. Weather observers based their predic-1 tions for today s flood stages* on the; rainfall up to yesterday, and, as the J rain continued last night and still was. falling today, higher stages were ex-1 pected. Fair weather was predicted for tomorow. Besides the heavy rain, snow fell in western and central Tennessee yester day and extreme cold wather was fore cast for today and tonight in that state, southern Alabama. Georgia and northern Florida. Off the coast, from Jacksonville to Virginia, a strong northeast gale was blowing, accompanied by rain in many sections. COLD GRIPS ATLANTA. Atlanta is shivering in the grip of a sudden cold wave that came roaring; down from the north on Sunday aft-; ernoon. very much like the sudden cold wave that came on Sunday afternoon aj few weeks ago.

It is recorded on some of the oaks around the Gwinnett county seat that horse trading was carried on long be fore the palefaces ever capped the rights of the redmen and ever since that time an “entree”. to the select circles could <be had through being a horse trader. ’ But there has been a change, the old regime has gone, the new has come, just as prohibition is sweeping away the landmarks of the loafers and idlers in the city, just so has the Lawrence ville council swept away the principal recreation grounds of the Gwinnett county horse traders. The ordinance passed by the council Thursday makes it a misdemeanor for any animal of whatever variety to be traded or sold in any public street, square or lot. and so the old camping ground has passed away and those who would .trade a good animal that’would stand without hitching will have to do so in a licensed stable.

One of the banks instituted a Christmas savings club late in December, and on March 1 the record showed over 95 per cent of the members were keeping up their pay ments. the number of members showing a gain of nearly 200 per cent as com ; pared to a year ago. Another bank in augurated a campaign for savings ac counts and reports the number climbing steadily, over. 100 new accounts having' been added to the savings department | in sixty days.
