Farmers' V it lull stand for 11-eeiit cotton Is
due mere than anything else the fact that
up to this tlmotthc average selling price ot
cotton has lieen far In excess of Id cents.
Had our organlaiitloit stood for 10-cent cot
ton the price In nil probability would never
have gone beyond that figure.
As it result of the uncompromising and
the loyal stand of the meuiliers of our or
gnnlxntlon, and those who have worked
with It we have seen the price of cotton
enved II cents several times during the
sen sen, while the average price of all cot

President Receives
Jamestown Commis
sion atWhite House.
W. N. MITCHELL .
HAD INTERVIEW
June 13 Will Be Georgia
Day at Exposition
in Jamestown.
"Speak on Georgia day at the
Jamestown Exposition? Why, I’m
bound to take part on that day, be
cause I am half Georgian, you know.
Nothing would give me ,more pleas
ure."
That Is the sentiment In which Pres
ident Roosevelt received President W.
N. Mitchell, of the Georgia commission
to the Jamestown Exposition, last Wed
nesday morning. ,
He was as enthusiastic about the
proposition when It was suggested to
him by President Mitchell as a school
boy, and for over a half hour he dis
cussed the matter and seemed loath
for the Interview to terminate.
It was last Wednesday morning at
11:30 o'clock that Mr. Mitchell called
on the president and submitted the
proposition for him to speak on thp
day at the big exposition set aside for
the Empire State of the South. The
president Is an old friend of Mr. Mitch
ell, who knew him as a boy, and when
Georgia. Georgia day and Bulloch Hail,
the old home of the president's mother,
were mentioned. President Rookevelt
showed hla delight at the f>lan.
The president said that nothing
would give him more pleasure than to
deliver an address on Georgia day from
the reproduction of his mother’s home.
Nothing Jn hJs administration had
pleased him so much as the honor
done his devoted mother by the decision
of Georgia to reproduce her old home
at the exposition.
The president saw a group of callers
waiting in the ante-room, but he was
conversing upon a subject dear' to his
Jieart. He was interested and he
showed It in an enthusiastic manner.
He was enthusiastic when he declared
to Mr. Mitchell that he was half Geor
gian, and he was deeply touched at
the honor paid his mother by the Geor
gia commission. He declared he was
president of the whole country and
not of any section or part.
After the interview Mr. Mitchell saw
Hon. Harry St. George Tucker, presi
dent of the Jamestown Exposition, and
had the second week In June selected
as the week In which Georgia day
would be named. President Roosevelt
said ho would be at liberty at this
time, and said further that either June
12, 13 or 14 would suit him. President
Tucker was of the opinion that June
12 had been set aside for Virginia,
and then Mr. Mitchell asked that June
13 be named as Georgia day,
Mr. Mitchell will make arrangements
so that the governor of Virginia, his
staff and the Virginia national guard
will remain over for Georgia day, and
these, with the Georgia delegation, will
make Georgia day one of the largest
and most Imposing of the exposition.
BLEW OUT HIS BRAINS
AS SHIP HIT ROCKS
Captain Could Not
Bear Disgrace and
Loss of Post.
Kingston, Jamaica, Dec. 13.—The pas
sengers have all been landed safely
from the Hamburg-American line tour.
1st steutnshlp Prinsessln Victoria Lulse,
which went ashore off Port Royal, and
the body of Captnln H. Brunswig, who
blew out his brains after the accident,
has boon taken In charge by the local
authorities.
Tho Lulse lies In an easy position,
and the German cruiser Bremen and
the French training ship Duguay-Trou-
in, which were In the harbor, today
were trying to pull her off.
When the vessel struck and the pas
sengers poured out of their cabins In
panic, Captain Brunswig shouted to
them that there was no danger. Then
he walked from the bridge, ^entered
his cabin nnd locked hlmseJr in. A
few minutes later the first officer heard
pistol shot, ftnd, forcing open the
door, found the captain dead, with a
bullet In his brain.
Captain Brunswig bad been with the
Hamburg-American line for two years.
Ho had said that this was to be his
last trip on the Prlnsessln. and he In
timated that on hla return to Now York
tho directors of tho line were to give
him the command of tbo big trans-
Atlantic liner, The Bluecher, running
between New York and Hamburg.
His new command meant an advance
In honor and pay.
The wreck of the Prlnxessln meant
loss of honor nnd the certainty of dis
grace.
Atlanta ministers have
been invited to witness the
at moral play at the Eldo
rado theater Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday.

TO SPEND WINTER
IN SUNNY SOUTH
From Cleveland, Ohio, comes the re
port that Mrs. Castle Chadwick, who
established for herself within a very
remarkably short time a very remark
able reputation along the lines of
"freniled finance," may be brought to
the land of cotton blossoms and mag
nolia blooms to finish her sentence Im
posed by the federal court. The change
has been recommended by tho federal
Inspectors and It Is understood that
she will be sent to the United States
penitentiary In Atlanta.
Mrs. Chadwick lodged a complaint
against the prison authorities at
Cleveland nnd the change will partly
be caused by tills. Her health has
also played an Important part in the
application for a transfer. The Indl-
ntlons are that the federal authori
ties will recommend that Mrs. Chad
wick be confined In the Atlanta prison.

Not Exist.
Atlanta', cnunrllmon and aldermen
refused lo ralae their otvn salaries to
1800 a year at the meeting Monday, a
resolution by Councilman Taylor to thle
effect being laid an tho table.
Many other more or lese Important
matters came up. before cquncll. The
report of the special police committee,
recommending a 30 days suspension of
the licenses of Callaway 4 Steiner, who

Councilman Draper Is chairman, was
read and adapted. The enrollment thle

as compared to 14,570 last year. A bond
Issue was recommended, as the best
means of overcoming the crowded con
dition of the schools and the scarcity
of the ,c ho.fi houses.
It was decided not to bring ault
against the World’s Work for crimi
nal libel, the ordinance committee re
porting unfavorably. The riot call or
dinance of Councilman Oldknow was
adopted. Applications for wholesale
liquor licenses were made by 1. Silver-
man on Edgewood avenue and the
