Dean! of Gainesville, as the prime movers in the to oust her from the Gainesville postoffke. The papers announce that Henn S. la, kson’ of Atlanta, is about to relieve . of the commission of the Gaines , . .stottice. in the interest of Judge B.

They were not guilty of ‘pernicious activity.’ Since the .’•lvil war the Republican party in the South has been limited to Federal of liee holders. Sees Big Job for Jackson. Mr. Jackson, since his appointment, i : .s been guilty of more ‘pernicious po litical activity’ than any man I know of in Georgia, and is today, if he is lying to relieve me of the commission of the Gainesville postoffice. But Mr. Jackson Ims undertaken a big Job, on th” eve of Woodrow Wilson’s adminis tration. -Il was announced at Chicago that Gaston had been promised the Gaines* > lie po-tofiice for his support of Pres- m Taft.

I GENERAL SELLING PUTS COTTON OFF ; Decline Prevails in Face of j Bullish Sentiment—Opinions Confused—Cables Weak. i [ Y< jIIK, Dec. 2. —Weakness in Liv- | erpool cables and a general unloading movement at the opening of the cotton market here today resulted in the mar ket opening quiet, with prices h net de cline of from 10 to 14 points from Satur day s final. However, The Orleans ii ts crop estimate of 10.9 4 5.000 bales, exclusive of linters and was a bullish character, inis, however, did not stimulate the niar- Ket. Sentiments from over the belt are very bullish, but a disposition prevailed among traders to liquidate, whica is said to work prices to lower level to renew their lines. .. Tbe selling continued general during the first fifteen minutes, while the buy ing was small and scattered, most of the absorption coining by the larger spot in tersts. After the call, prices receded 5 points from the initial figures. 1 rading was of a light character during the forenoon and prices sagged about the early decline. The selling of the Hell interest brought out renewed selling from outsiae speculators. However, offerings were absorbed remarkably well. National ; ginners, of Memphis, was said to be bearish in their report on ginned bales to December 1, making the total 11,850,000 bales, also many expect the government report, to be issued next Monday, to show large ginnings. This is having a depress ing effect upon the market, dinning last year from Nevember 14 to December 1 bales, and after that time 3,300,000 bales were ginned. During the late session the large spot houses continued their aggressiveness and scattered buying by the ring crowd, who seems short, held prices ranging about unchanged from the opening. Heavy realizing during the last half hour caused a further decline of about 12 to 15 points from the opening. At the close the market was barely steady with prices a net decline of 12 to 34 points from the final quotations of Saturday.
