Aug. 23.—The cotton mar ket was extremely nervous and unsettled dur ing today’s trading, owing to violent fluctu ations in Liverpool, where early advances were followed by a break equivalent to ap proximately a cent a pound. The opening here was easy with August 100 points lower, while October and November showed ad vances of 18 to 35 points and later months declines of 5 to 60 points under liquidation and T.iver|>ool selling. Private cables said the English market had been influenced by unfavorable labor and political conditions. There was a good deal of covering in the local market and after the decline to 26.15 for December there were rallies of several points. The continued weakness of Liverpool, which was attributed by private cables to rumors of failures in the Far Ijlast and sell ing by Manchester on apprehensions of a coal strike, caused further declines here later in the morning. All active deliveries broke into new low ground with October selling off to 26.50 - and December to 35.35 cor 92 to 108 points lower. Stop or ders were uncovered and after their ex ecution there wowe rallies of several points, but the tone of the market showed little improvement and the bulges were not fully maintained. Demand failed to broaden on moderate midday rallies and the market soon weak ened again under tenewed liquidation and lo cal selling. October broke to 26.39 and De cember to 25.25, or 107 to 118 points below Saturday’s close and the midafternoon mar ket was within a few points of the lowest.

Around the first call there was a flqsh of strength on the mose active months in which advances of 7 to 20 points were made. Not all months were up and the whole list slumped the minute of ferings increased. Liverpool’s break, said to tie due to a boycott by India on EngfiW goods, caused extremely heavy selling and at .the end of the first hour of business prices were 60 to 74 points under the close of last week. October dropped to 25.95 and March to 24.50. Private cablegrams from Liverpool, stat ing that the market there was demoralized by fear of a coal strike, caused a further increase in offerings and late in the morn ing October was at 25.58 c. while the list of trading months showed net looses of 160 to 120 points. Although most traders called the market oversold it had no re actionary tendency. Rumors of a further lowering of quota tions in the spot markets of the interior <•:: sed the heaviest selling and the weak est period of the session. Toward the close October dropped to 25.07 and the trading months showed net losses of 135 to 156 points.

NSHEPARD & GLUCK cdITON LETTERN NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 23.—The selling movement in cotton was still in force today and it received fres himpetus from the un favorable news from England, where a new coal strike is threatened. There were ru mors of a big failure in the Far East which caused a demoralized contract market at Liverpool. The market responded as read ily as ever to the selling in spite of its oversold condition and it apparently will re quire a_ great and favorable charfge in the situation to cause any buying of consequence outside of the buying of covers by shorts who want their profits.

WALTER BROWN GIVES PLATFORM FOR GOVERNOR Declaring he would place the con stitution of Georgia and the laws of the commonwealth above all other considerations and would commit himself to the proposition that “no man nor class of men shall trample them under foot,” Walter R. ' Brown Saturday made public the platform of which he will make the race for governor against John N. Holder, Clifford W. Walker and Thomas W. Hardwick. Mr. Brown, who is a well-known Atlanta attorney, gave formal notice of his candidacy one week ago. He was for several years a member of the Atlanta police commission and for eight ye-ars a member of the board of Fulton county commis sioners. Asserting that he will indulge in no vituperation or abuse in the cam paign, Mr. Brown voices his unquali fied indorsement of the open shop and devotes a large part of his platform to a discussion of the problems of organized labor, pays his respects to Samuel Gompers, president of organized union labor in America, indorses bi-ennial ses sions of the legislature, and pledges his suport to Governor Cox .and Frankln Roosevelt in the approach ing presidential election. SPEAKER DECLARES OTHERWISE HE IS IN RACE TO FINISH (Ccntinv-ecl from Page 1) least. Do not allow this to affect your position at all. You are the logical man for governor, and the people are not going to turn you down because you stayed at your post, while one of your op ponents dropped one piece of pie o gain another.” ** From a farmer of Randolph ?ounty: “I have noticed in the olumns of the Atlanta Constitu on and Macon Telegraph that hose papers are urging you to tire from the raee for gover or. I hope you will not be gov ■rned by this advice, which is aot coming from friendly lources. You have many sup porters in this county, and it • ould be embarrassing to vote ■t the orders of two men who ’.lould not be allowed to dictate a us who we will have for gov ernor. We claim to be good lemocrats, and resent this sug estion from the Constitution ind Telegraph, and hope that .’Ou will stay in the race and ight it out to a finish.” Fro ma north Georgia editor: Noticing that the Clark Howell lique has asked you to with raw from the governor’s race, ■once this letter of request that •ou stay in the race until the inish, as I, like many more in ais county, feel that you are the wrongest man and will be the .■.• inner regardless of the Atlan ta Constitution and Macon Tele traph’s desire that you step lown and out for their candidate —Clifford Walker.” From a prominent lawyer o 'offerson county; in one hour o-:lay I received sixty-eight slg ■tures to the Holder club for governor. I will have the signa tures of 90 per cent of the qual ified voters of this district. You ire undoubtedly the strongest nan in this county.” From a prominent man in north Georgia: “Have read the article appearing in the Macon Telegraph and Constitution. John Holder is a farmer and business man, and this ought to be his answer to this attempt to side-track him.” From a Montgomery county hanker:' ‘Don’t get out of the race. All you need is to tell the people the glad tidings. If you let the Con stitution put you out for Walker, - Hardwick is certa'in Walk er cannot beat Hardwick. Holder undoubtedly can. The people of Georgia should say on September 8 just who should be governor, and not a few editors and poli ticians.’ I could quote you from many more communications. You have consulted a few prominent court officers, while I have consulted and heard from men of all walks of life, who say I am the strong est man in the race. Holder’s Proposition I was the first man to enter the race for governor, the first to pay my entrance fee, and I am the strongest candidate in the field today. I have conducted my campaign upon a high plane, based upon my record, my train ing and fitness for the office, free from personalities and par tisanship. I am in no wise responsible for the political situation to which you refer, or to the like situa tion in the race for the senate. You and Mr. Anderson, of the Macon Telegraph, forced this un fortunate situation in the race for the United States senate by com pelling a third candidate to en ter the race against his wish and the proest of many of his strongest friends, when the issue was already clearly drawn be tween Watsonism and anti-Wat sonism. How, Mr. Howell, I am ready, willing and anxious to do any thing in my power for my party and I stand ready to relieve the embarrassing situation in Geor gia, but my dithdrawal from the race for governor would accom plish nothing unless the situa tion in the senatorial race was also relieved at the same time. Since you, my political enemy, have seen fit to advise me what to do, now you advise your friend and candidate to withdraw from the race for senate, leaving only two in that race, and I stand ready to meet your demand and withdraw instanter from the ? °Unless, Bhowever, 8 however, this in do » e ’ and done promptly, I am unable to see why I should be Bacriflced for no purpose except to help your candidate for governor, and not the Democracy for Georgia, and I shall be in the race to the finish, absolutely confident that I shall be elected.

Dr. Blosser is the originator of a certain combination of medicinal herbs, flowers and berries to be smoked in a pipe or ready prepared cigarette which is meeting with un usual success in catarrhal troubles. The smoke-vapor reaches all the air passages of the head, nose and throat. As the disease is carried into these passages with the air you breathe, so the antiseptic, healing vapor of this remedy is carried with the breath directly to the affc:tel parts. This simple, practical method ap plies the medicine where sprays, douches, ointments, etc., cannot pos sible go. Its effect is soothing and healing, and is entirely harmless, containing no cubebs, tobacco, or habit forming drugs. It is pleasant to use, and not sickening to those who have never smoked. If you are a sufferer from catarrh, asthma, catarrhal deafness, or If subject to frequent colds, no matter how severe or long standing, you should tiy Dr. Blosser’s remedy. To prove the beneficial, pleasant effect, The Blosser* Co., ML 402, At lanta, Ga., will mail, for ten cents (coin or stdmps) to any sufferer, a sample that will verify their claims by actual test. This trial package contains some of this Remedy made into cigarettes, also some of the powder and a dainty little pipe.— (Advt.)
