ers' convention met In Columbia
last month and appointed me a
delegate at large from my state to
the interstate cotton growers con-
vention called to meet in Atlanta
on the 14th inst. At that meeting,
| will present II plan OF cooper.
alton among cotton growers that
will give them control of the spot
market. This bill will wipe out
the gambling market and leave
the producers OF cotton In posi-
ton to control the price of their
product within reasonable limits.
1t is needless to say that under
the prodisions of the bill, 1.-the same
remedies may be applied to all
other agricultural products-corn,
wheat, oats, etc. l speak of cotton
specificall because my people are
mostly interested In it.
1.-The section of the bill requir-
ing each contract to relate to one
grade only will of itself revolu-
tionize the transaction of the cot
ton exchange. Under the existing
rules the seller of futures can
deliver any grade from good ordi-
nary to fair. This shuts out spin
ners and and actual buyers Of
actual cotton, practically from the
cotton exchange, because the spin
ner when he buys cotton wants
to buy certain grade.
"If we compel the delivery of
the grade specified, then splnners
can have showing on the ex-
changes.
81 repeat: the bill will give the
relief the farmers need, if it be
comes law; and it will become
law if the farmers demand it,"

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for
one purpose, namely, receptacle
for the urine, and as such it is
not liable 10 any form of disease
except by one of two ways. The
first way is from imperfect action
of the kidneys. The second way
Is from careless local treatment
of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from un-
healthy kidneys is the chief cause
Of bladder troubles. SO the
womb, like the bladder, was Gre
atcd Tor one purpose, and If not
doctOred too much is not liable
TO weakness or disease. except in
rare cases. 1t is situated back Of
and very close 10 The bladder,
therefore any pain or lnconven-
fence manifested in the kidneys,
back, bladder or urinary passage
Is often, by mistake, attributed to
female weakness or womb trou-
bic of sOmc sort. The error is
easily made and may be as easily
avoided. TO find ont correctly,
set your urine aside for twenty
four hours ; a sediment or settling
indicates kidney or bladder trou-

NEARLY SUNK THE CRUISERS.
German Naval ManeuverS We're
Unsatisfactory.

German Naval ManeuVefS were
Unsatisfactory.
BERLIN, August 2S.-An unpleasant
surprise has been created by the naval
correspondents of the Kreuz Zeitung
and other Conservative newspapers, as
we'll as the correspondent OF the
Deutsche Zeitung Rundeschau, report
ing the naval maneuvers near Dantz1g
during the past fortnight. They de-
scribe the evolutions Of the German
war vessels as having been total fall
ures. so far as quickness and maneu-
vering ability to resist torpedo attacks
are concerned.
On Tuesday last, off the port of Bella,
one ironclad division narrowly escaped
running aground while maneuver1ng
to escape torpedo-boats. The cores
pondents, who were themselves naval
men, and who were on board the YES
sells engaged in the maneuvers, attri-
buted this lack of skill to the want of
modern equipments in the German
ships. The Government will argue
from this that more cruisers are need
ed in the German fleet, and will urge
the necessity of forming division of
cruisers.
