INDEPENDENT MILITARY.
An Atlanta Company Prohibited
From Carrying Arms.

From Carrying Arms.
Atlanta, Ca, March 14.-Attorney Cen
eral Terrin to-day rendered an opinion
that will be read with deep interest by
the military of the state. The case in
point was that of the Gate City Guard
of this city, an organization that refused
TO enlist in the state service because the
members did not like the policy of the
state toward the military. on becoming
an dependent command the guard was
refused the right by the adjutant general
TO bear arms in public and an appeal was
taken TO the governor for the right to
exercise this privilege.
Gov. Atkinson referred the question 10
the attorney general and to-day Col. Ter
rill rendered his opinion which sustains
the former order prohibiting the COM
pany from bearing arms. The attorney
general is of the opinion, however that il
is not the province of the governor to saw
whether a company shall or shall not
bear arms but for the state courts He
says the guard is liable to arrest by the
officers of the law if they appear on the
streets under arms just the same as any
other mob. The Guard has already
bought about sixty stands of arms and
paid for them, anticipating that they
would be allowed TO use them. In view
of the attorney generals decision they
have determined to appear on the streets
under arms at the first reasonable oppor-
tunity with the view of being arrested
and then carrying their case to the SUI
preme court

COTTON BEARS TURN BULLS.

He Claims That the Recent Rise Is
an Artificial One Engineered by
Liverpool Operators in order TO
HOodwink Farmers Into Planting
a Larger Crop Than They Intended.

Atlanta. Ca. March 1.-THE Consti-
sutton publishes tomorrow from Hon.
Hector d. Lane. commissioner Of agri-
culture Of Alabama. and president Of the
American Cotton Growers Protective As
ISOLATION a communication addressed TO
the cotton growers Of the south. in which
he warns them against what he calls the
strategic movement being made by cotton
nanipulators 10 delude them into the sui
cidal act Of planting again a large crop Of
cotton. He says that uneasiness has been
felt in Liverpool for some time concern
ing probably decreased acreage and had
this menace not existed cotton would
have been even lower than it has been.
and now as the end Of the
season is at hand. and the
staple is substantially out OF the hands
of the farmer. these gentlemen who have
represented the bear element many
months while the cotton was moving in
large volumes, now resort to this ruse Of
running values up simply as a device to
induce farmers to plant more cotton than
intended He warns the farmers OF the
south that the rise in cotton of the last
few days is fictitious, and that It is the
product of a conspiracy to systematically
rob the producer Of his legitimate gains.
Continuing he says; Let the people be-
ware. II is a bait TO catch those who will
bite. There is no legitimate reason shown
for this sudden rise in cotton values. The
production has exceeded the most san
guine expectations; Russia has placed
virtually prohibitive duty on American
cotton, so we can no longer expect to
sell her 100000 bales"
He says that those who are actually en-
gagged in the work of producing cotton
are not earning II cents a day for their
labor the year around. "and what is to be
the fate of this man when his cotton goes
down 1 or IL cents this fair Nor is II
at all improbable when we recognize the
condition that cOnfronts us, for l invite
consideration Of the fact that we had
a most phenomenal season for picking
our crop this last season, and its classi-
f1cation was higher than ever known.
Hardly any grading was less than low

est attention of cotton growers to this
nefarious scheme and address you this
letter as the caveat that you may not be
deluded by this wolf in Sleeps clothing,
or, in other words, this bear in bulls

~~{A1l OeEBeybs
 Meriden, Jan. 2S.-Dr. Julian D. Gard. ner of Hartford is expected to visit the Charles Parker stock farm to. morrow and make an autopsy on nine cows of MT. Parker's graded Jersey herd that he condemned on a recent visit. A number of physicians will at tend this "tuberculin test" Three weeks ago one of the twenty-one milch cows was taken sick and she was knocked in the head. Dr. Gardner was summoned from Hartford, and each of the herd of twenty-six cattle was tested by tuberculin inoculation, with the re- suit that nine cows were condemned.
 Edward M. Pratt, who has charge of the Parker stock, said this morning that hc knew nothing further than that Dr, Gardner was expected tomorrow.
 MT. Pratt, who has farmed all his life, and been with MT Parker for thirty-two years, thinks that if the various states wish to stamp out tuber- culosis they will have to slaughter all the cattle in the world to do it.

 T did so, and the almost immediate change it wrought was wonderful. regained my appetite, the dizziness in my head departed, my nerves were made perfectly strong, it renewed my interest in life and made me feel, in fact, like another woman.
 After taking six bottles I thank fully proclaimed myself well and strong. Those six bottles of Dr, Greene's Nervura blood and nerve rem edy did for me what hundreds of dollars and numerous physicians failed to do. I cannot do credit to it's merits. Truly it should be lauded to the skies. l ad- wise everybody to take it."

It will cure you. It gives health and strength to every body.
 It is the great discovery of Doctor Greene, of 35 West 14th street, New York City, and is perfectly harmless The Doctor is the most successful spe- oialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases He can be consulted free, personally or by letter, and this fact places his great remedy above all other medicines.
