FOR JUDGE or PROBATE.
John J. Clerlin Named for Position by
 Silver Democrats

John J. Clerkin Named for Position by
 Silver Democrats
 A conference of several of the lead ing silver democrats was held yester- day afternoon. The subject of candi- date for probate judge was discussed. The name of A. N. Wheeler, which had been suggested in some quarters, did not meet the sanction of all those pres- ent, it being claimed that Wheeler had not been sufficiently grounded in the silver-popocrati party's politics to warrant his selection as a candidate. It was urged further that MT Wheeler was already assistant state attorney and all the plums should not fall to one man. It was finally decided that the name of John J. Clerkin should be presented at the convention.
 MT. Clerkin when seen after the meet ing would neither affirm nor deny the story that he was the choice of the conference.

THE TIE TRUST TACKLED.
AN AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT
MANIFESTO.

Commissioner Nesbitt Advises Far
mers TO wait Until some Means BE
Devised to Meet the Trust and
Treat IL as the Begging Trust Was
Treated Few Years AgO-Mr.
NesbItt Believes That the Farmers
Are Strong Enough for the Fight.
Atlanta, Ga. Aug. 3-The state depart
ment Of agriculture has taken hold of the
cotton ties trust and viii make investi-
cations for the purpose Of finding a sub
stitute for the ties that have been cor
nered.
Commissioner r. T. Nesbitt to-day is
sued the following manifesto on the sub
ject:
ITO the farmers OF Georgia and the
south; A few years ago we were con-
fronted by a gigantic monopoly, the bag
ging trust, which tried to force from the
farmers thousands Of dollars which they.
in their depressed condition, they could
i'll afford to lose. BY united efforts on the
part OF the farmers this evil was averted.
and the octopus which had fastened It.
self on the agricultural industry, was de-
stroyed.
To-day we are confronted by similar
trouble. The manufacturers Of cotton
ties have former another great combina-
ton, and without any cause except to
crafty an unlawful greed, have agreed
to raise the price of their goods 100 per
cent If the price of iron had advanced
there might be some reason for this ac-
ton, but iron was never cheaper, and
the same may be said of coal and labor
The fact is simply that an effort is being
made to force the farmers of the south
to contribute millions to swell the profits
of powerful combination of manufacture
ers. The farmers are in good condition
just now to fight this trust They have
their provisions. There are few debts to
be met until later, therefore no pressing
necessity to force their cotton on the
market. ! would advise that they hold
meetings in every section of the south
and denounce this attempt to defraud
them of their earnings. At the same
time let them advise together as to what
Is the best way to meet this new enemy
Meanwhile this department will make in
vestigation as to substitutes for cotton
ties, as will meet the requirements of
durability and safety.
