PRESIDENT STILL PLEADS LOR GREATER NAVY.
Cairo 111. Upon his Triumphal Tour of the Mississippi Valley A
Strong Navy a Strong factor For Peace.
CAIRO. ILL., October 3.—(Special)
—President Roosevelt and the dis
tinguished party acompanving him
upon his triumphal tour of the Miss
issippi Valley reached Cairo early
this morning and were accorded a
most enthusiastic reception here.
A vast multitude lined the river
banks as the Presidential party land
ed, and escorted Mr. Roosevelt to
St. Mary's Park,, where the public
reception was to be held.
The city was gaily decorated, and
the welcome acorded the President
was as cordial as it was enthusiastic.
Despite the fact that he did not get
to his stateroom until after mid
night last pight Mr. Roosevelt was
at his best today. Last night he was
the guest of the St. Louis Business
Men’s League aboard ship, the festivi
ties continuing until midnight.
In his after dinner speech to the
League last night the President gave
unqualified approval to the plan pro
posed for connecting the Gulf with
the great lakes of the north, making
possible a gigantic waterway across
the Continent.
In his speech at Cairo today Mr.

NOW CLOSE To]2, 000 BALES
Cotton Receipts in Americus Continue to Pile UP
Handsomely.
With (today’s warehouse receipts
added, Americus will have received
more than twelve thousand bales of
wagon cotton since the season open
ed five or six weeks ago. Yesterday’s
reecipts carried the total well beyond
11,500 bales, and 500 additional bales
today is an easy proposition. This
would be in excess of receipts last
season. On October Ist, last year,
Americus warehouses had received
a total of 10,200 wagon bales, against
10,490 bales at that date this sea
son, a difference of only 290 bales in
favor of this year's crop. On Octo
A BUNCH OF FOXES
EAT UP CHICKENS
Costly Pastime of an Americus
Hunter
The fox crop near Americus is one
of the best in years, though the dom
inecker is lessened in proportion. Re
cently an Americus citizen, who loves
to follow the yelping hounds, placed
three fine red fox “cubs” on Mucka
lee, at a point noar the city, where
they were expectea to fatten until he
j got ready to run them with his dogs.
' The foxes fattened all right, but the
S fattening ammunition used was sixty
j barred Plymouth Rock pullets worth
a .dollar each and the property of a
I neighboring farmer, who fails utterly
! to see anything funny about the foxy
| business. 111 the meantime the foxes,
fat and happy, are still out in the
i woods, while somebody is out the

Roosevelt, in addition to again ex
pressing approval of the ‘ lakes to the
gulf” scheme, pleaded for a greater
navy as the best safeguard of peace
and continued prosperity.
Our navy at present is far inade
quate to the requirements of a world
power; in fact, it is so small, the
President declared, that it should be
kept together.
The Government, he declared.,
would begin this year a plan which
he hoped would be made perpetual;
that of keeping the larger ships al
ternately in the Pacific and the
Atlantic, but at all times keeping the
battleships well together.
A larger and stronger navy, he said,
was the strongest factor for lasting
peace for America.
“Politically we have worked out our
democratic ideals, and the same is
true as to educational matters, but
in industry there has not as yet
been the governmental growth, nec
essary to meet new conditions.”
Mr. Roosevelt again urged Federal
control of the railroads of the United
States in manner similar to the Gov
ernment supervision of our national
banks.
prise in official circles, as it was not
generally known that such step was
contemplated. He has several times
been elected as the official head of
Georgia's public school system and
his best energies have been exerted
in putting it upon the very high
plane it now occupies.
her Ist, last year, good middling cot
ton was selling here at 9 cents,
11 1-4 this year on the same date, a
difference of $511.25 per bale in favor
of this year’s crop, which may yet
turn out as good as last year’s yield
in bales. The local market yesterday
was but slightly better than that of
the day before, when the slump came
on a very “bullish” bureau report.
Americus buyers paid 11 to 11 1-8 yes
terday for the best grades. Receipts
are holding up well and, as above
stated the 12,000 bale mark will be
passed today, in all probability.
