worthy and satisfactory. The cotton Ex-

Immediate consumption not only here but
abroad. Ii is fitting that, upon the very
sod where Sherman's army began It's
march of destruction, laying waste cities
and towns u great manufacturing COM
maRity should celebrate the advent OF Il
prosperous and growing metropolis by an
exposition such rs is contemplated, PROV
ing, asit WILL that the Eelds are white
unto the harvest, and only await fresh
hands TO gather il, the crops and turn
them into commodities for daily use.
To meet the extraordinary demand made
unen them for labor, the people of the

held ont to the. vast army of toilers who
are daily handling rpon our shores in
search of renumefatiye and steady EN-.

The frnut rank. 1t is all-important at the
very ontset that care should be taken to
weed out all professional runners and adj
