The purchases were esti mated at from 20,0v0 to 25,000 bales in the aggregate, sending the price of October up to 31.02, and December to 30.25, or 18 to 28 points net higher. Later months respond ed only partially to the advance in these po sitions, however, and as soon as th elnitial buying orders had been executed, the mar ket weakened owing to the continued weak ness of foreign exchange, reported curtail ment in the clothing trade and \avorabie weather conditions in the south. October soon broke to 30.63 and December to 29.65, with the general list selling about 20 to 47 points net lower. ' Liverpool was also a buyer of October during the early trading and there were rallies during the middle of the morning followed by very nervous and irregular fluc tuations. The stronger technical position was reflected in covering on the declines, but offerings increased on advances and the market sold off after the publication of the favorable weekly weather report. This wai the sixth favorable report in succes sion and was considered reassuring in con nection with its references to the boll weevil. December sold around 29.85 early in the noon hour, or about 12 points net lower .while later months shoked net losses of 28 to 35 points. The market was less active during the afternoon with the tone rather steadier on covering, particularly in the case of the near months. December sold up to 30.30, or 33 points net higher, while latest deliveries held within a few points of last night’s closing.

Prices slumped to levels 18 to 25 points under the close of yesterday, October dropping from 29.72 to 29.40. Heavy realizing by shorts appeared and at the end of the first hour of trading the qiarket stood 11 to 30 points over yesterday’s final prices, October rising to 29.85. The weekly crop reports were better than expected, failing to show extensive deteri oration in any division of the belt. For a short time the market sagged in a moder ite way, but this encouraged realizing by shorts on a large scale, furnishing a de mand on which it finally bulged to new high levels. Toward noon October traded up to ‘,0.09, and the list stood at net gains of 21 to 44 points. The rise on October continued until that month was at 30.18 c, a net advance of 53 points, but other months did not make new high levels. Undoing of straddle trades in a large way brought about a most irregu lar market and toward the close prices were 20 points up to 20 points down com pared with yesterday’s close. Closed steady, at net 7 points up to 28 down. NEW ORLEANS COTTON The following were the ruling prices in lhe exchange today: Tone, steady; middling, 37.75 c, steady. Last. Prev. Open. High. Low.

Informa tion to this effect is contained in a letter to The Journal from J. M. Head, editor of the Pike county pa per. .Editor Head declares that while he has not agreed entirely with Sena tor Smith in all of his public acts, he feels that the best interests and traditions of the Democracy of Geor gia will be preserved and perpetuat ed through his re-election to the senate. The Pike County Journal is one of the best edited and most influential weekly publications in middle Geor gia, and its declaration for the re election of Senator Smith brings to his support a force that will make itself felt in the senatorial cam.; paign. Editor Head’s letetr to The Jour nal, commenting upon the senator ial campaign, remarks that Senator Smith unquestionably is one of the big, outstanding figures of tne coun try, whose services in the senate Georgia can ill afford to lose dur ing the reconstruction period fol lowing the world war. "Senator Smith is better equipped and better able to represent the state .and render us aid during these times than any other man in Geor gia ,and he should be returned to the senate,” writes the editor.

WATSON FORT VALLEY, Ga„ August 4.—- Plans of Hardwick and Watson sup porters for a big open air meeting here Tuesday were thwarted by a downpour of rain, and the meeting had to be held the school audi torium. The audience was esti mated at 1,900, the majority of whom were from out of town. Mr. Hardwick, who spoke first, be gan bv quoting the scripture, "Lo, the night hath ended and the morn ing comes,” and he said one-man power has ended.’ He attacked the Wilsen administration, said four men around a council table would change the maps so grown people would have to study geography again, ac cusing them of professing to accom plish what Christianity had failed to do in two thousand years. He dwelt mostly on national affairs. He said there were bosses in Geor gia whom, when he became governor, he would oust. He claimed twice to have run a steamroller over the Clark Howell bunch and said he would give them Hell in Septem ber. Several ladies in the assembly heard him say he told the San Fran cisco folk to do as they d please and go to hell. He asked support not as a favor, but for the sake of civil justice. He spoke of Wilson supporters as new fangled Democrats and Wilson wor shipers. Said the people needed less law, more liberty. He declared the legislature has “got Georgia in a devil of a mess, robbing Peter to pay>. Paul and bor rowing of Paul” till both were broke. He made fun of Walker’s “Red, White and Blue speech,” and said he couldn’t be a “rubber stamp senator,” neither would he be a “rubber stamp governor.” Frequent applause accompanied the speech. Following Mr. Hardwick, Mr. Wat son spoke. He said many went to the springs of daily journalism for refreshment. He told of the Are chunk kept burning by the Indians and likened it to the fire of liberty for which he has wonted and sacrificed to keep burning for five years. He denied anyone to find one word of his, written or spoken, which was against liberty. He dwelt upon the right of free speech and followed this by con demning the treatment of soldiers in Georgia camps, speaking of Camp Gordon officers as brutal and “caus ing your sons to suffer and die.” An ex-soldier in the back of the auditorium said: “You’re a liar,” and it looked as if a riot would fol low. Watson made fun of the words »of Pershing at Lafayette’s tomb, say ing he didn’t say them in the first place. He spoke of Hardwick as the next governor. In defense of his war record, he said he spent $3,600 to “give you the chance to vote.” He said he had $2,- 000 worth of Liberty Bonds and had lost S3OO on them. Merchants of South To Meet m Atlanta On August 12-13-14 Unless all signs go wrong, Atlanta is going to be host to the biggest gathering of merchants on August 12, 13 and 14 that has ever gathered in the ctiy at one time, for during the three days, the Atlanta Mer chants and Manufacturers’ associa tion will revive its annual Mer chants’ week. Invitations to over 10,000 merchants in the southeast have been extended, and at least 2,000 are expected to attend. A movement to form a merchants’ association will be launched at the only business meeting to be held, Thursday morning. Norman H. John son, of Richmond, Va., secretary of the Southern Wholesale Dry Goods association, has been* engaged to outline the proposed movement, and as he has successfully organized sev eral similar organizations, it is con fidently predicted that the association will be forced. Atlanta wholesale houses and man ufacturers’ are “dolling up” their stores in anticipation of the coming merchants and will have all of their lines attractively displayed for their inspection. Following the business meeting Thursday morning, the merchants will be taken to Lakewood park, where a monster barbecue will be served. Retailers in all parts of the south east are invited, and it is to be hoped that as many as possible will attend. Blacksburg Banker Is Found Dead With Pistol Lying by His Side YORK, S.

Four entire counties and parts of five others are included in this twenty-mlle zone. Mr. Black's study of the statistics further revealed that more than one third of the entire population of Georgia resides within seventy-five miles of Atlanta, wnich, of course, means that considerably more than a million people do the bulk of their buying here. This seventy-five-mile zone includes all the territory on the north as far as Blue Ridge; on the as far as Mount Airy; touches Bibb county on the south, and in cludes three counties in Alabama on the west.

Tortured and Pain-Racked for Fifteen Years wiin Rheumatism We can hardly imagine the feeling of joy and r' thankfulness which would possess one who, afteif suffering fifteen years the excrutiations of rhem * matism, finally gains relief. § This was the experience of Mr. W. H. HH of 49 Cooper Street, Atlanta, Ga., who tells of hM • =•• •' recovery as foliotvs: suffered fifteen years with rheumatism. I PE-RU-NA cured me and I think it is the best ail around medicine ever made. I hope you publish . W. H. Edgars m y letter for the benefit of others.” Simple words, but they tell a big story in straight-forward, honest way. Rheumatism is only one of the many troubles due to catarrh, Coughs, colds, indigestion, constipation, sour stomach, belching, bloating, pains in the back, side and loins, are # a few of them that may be traced to a catarrhal condition. In the prevention of grip and Spanish Flu, which are of a catarrhal nature, and to hasten recovery after an attack, the value of PE-RU-NA is undis puted. The safe way is to keep PE-RU-NA in the house all the time for emergencies. You can buy PE-RU-NA anywhere in either tablet or liquid form. — (Advt.) ioiiEEm PHSoiiipi Here is our New Style E. D. L.
