Formally Organize an Association
 and Name Officers.
A LIST OF RESOLUTIONS
Which Have the Right Senti- ment Offered and Adopted.
 Meet Next in Jackson.

MONTGOMERY, Nov. 14.-The cotton growers convention reassembied today and organized an association, national in its scope, for the better protection of planters interests.
 The committee on statistics was in- structed to obtain and arrange for use of the convention official statistics of cotton, the prices, etc., for the past ten years. The president of the convention. Commis- sioner Lane of Alabama, read a statement showing by the census returns that resolu- tions on the part Of planters to restrict acreage have been followed by decreased output of cotton.
 Resolutions of the committee continued, with special resolutions subsequently, of- fered, all adopted by the convention, cover the following subjects:
 1. Reduction of cotton acreage and in- creased attention to production of cereals.
 2. Greater attention to stock and cattle raising.
 8. Encouragement of manufacturing ill the south by exempting manuiactories from taxation for period of ten years.
 4. Encouragement of immigration. The resolutions advise that large plan tations be divided into small farms and later be sold to bona fde home-seekers.
 5. Recommendation that cotton be with
  debt to their factors, and that 1t be held for rise, which may reasonably be ex- pected if present heavy receipts are appre- ciably reduced.
 g.. The organization of tbe Cotton Plant ers' Association of the United States of America, to meet at least twice year, and to consist of four delegates from each con- gressional district in the cotton growing states aud three delegates at large from each state, appointed by governors of suoh states, irrespective of party preference.t Said association is to hold it's first meeting in Jackson, Miss, the second Wednesday iu January 1895.
 2. Cotton seed trusts condemned.
 g.. Congress petitioned to pass the anti options bill.
 8. Congress to be required to refund the cotton tax collected in 1866 67.
 The convention then organized the new association by electing officers to serve un- til the January meeting, as follows:
 Gov. James Stone of Mississippi, presi- dent; Hon. Jo Waddell of Georgia, and the commissioner of agriculture for the cotton growing states, vice president; tary, and Prof. James Smith of Georgia, treasurer.
 The chairman of the convention was re- uuested to issue an address to all business interests, asking cooperation in obtaining the objects of the association.
 The following special resolution was adopted:
 Resolved, That the honest conviction of this conviction as practical cotton growers is that the estimates that are being sent out by the cotton exchanges in reference to the crop are excessive, and it is the belief observation and the best statistical infor. mation, that the present crop will not ex- ceed $500. GOO bales.
 The convention adjourned sine die.

 GENERAL ASSEMBLY NOTES. The house has perhaps never had more graceful speaker than the neW presiding officer, MT. Clark. Every body agrees that his selection was q happy one.
 Jefferson's delegation IS one of the most creditable in the house. Few, if any, of the old members exert greater influence than do MT. O'Brien and MT. Mcqueen. he following resolution, winch MT. Robert Warnock was very instrumental in having drawn up and signed, is self explaining and will no doubt prove qui- etener on assertions made against him in his canvass for the mayoralty in your city: Be 1t resolved, That we, the mem bers- elect from Jefferson county, deem the mat ter of purchase of water works by the au- thorities of the city of Birmingham inex- pedient at this time. However much some of our memb bers may think it wisdom for the city to own and control gas and water works, the conditioa of the city treasury and the general financial condition of the country would not admit of the expendi- ture of SO large a sum at this time.

WHOLESALE ARRESTS

OF SUSPECTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE
 BAILEYToN LYNOHING.
 CuILMAN, Nov. N.-tspsoial.1- .1-Whoie- sale arrests have been made in the Mon Evans murder case, which occurred in August, 1891. Mon Evans and his son, John, were lynched at Baileyton, fifteen miles east of here, in this county. The offence for which they were lynched seems to have been disagreeable neighbors only.
 Recent development in the case has brought about the arrest of several promi nent citizens, one of them being @ county commissioner. Fifteen are now in jail and Sheriff Fuller has warrants for the ar rest of ten or twelve more. Considerable excitement prevails, and it is feared that mob will take the parties out of jail. .Sher- if Fuller has the jail well guarded and don't look for trouble tonight.

IN THE COURTS.

The grand jury for Jefferson county has made it's final report to Judge Greene of the criminal court. The written report submitted reads as follows:
 To Hon. s. E. Greene, Judge of the Criminal Court of Jefferson County:
 The grand jury impaneled at the Septem- Der term of your honor's court submit their report as follows:
 We have docketed 272 cases and found 335 true bills, 213 felonies and 122 misde- meanors.
 The county roads, considering the means at hand to work most of them, are in fairly good condition.
 THE PUBLIC ROADS. On the subject of the public roads we recommend complete change in the road system of the county. We understand that a bill will be introduced before the legislature embodying provisions that will result in great advantage to our roads. One section provides for an intelligent supervi- sion of the roads, another for the contract system when advisable, another provides for the payment of the funds now collected by certain designated justices of the peace into the county treasury as a road fund to be paid out upon proper vouchers, and still an other for the arrangement of a more complete list of persons liable to road duty in the county. These are wise aud neoes- sary provisions in our judgment, and will give us far better road law than the one we have at present.
 ELECTION LAWS. ! Violations of the election law were re- ported to us from Bessemer that we have dealt with as best we could from the ev1- dence at hand. We also issued subpoe nas in alleged violations of the election law in Toadvine beat, but the witnesses failed to attend. We believe in fair and hoheBt elections and the enforcement of the laws on this subject.
 THE JAIL. The prisoners in the jail are healthy and we'll fed. We find the county jail to be in an insecure condition and unsafe for the custody of prisoners. We are advised that the jail can be made safe at cost of $2000, and we recommend the expendit ure of this sum for that purpose. ESCAPES. Owing to the insecure condition of the jail several prisoners in the past few
