CALL To COTTON GROWERS.
President Lane, Of the American Cot
ton Growers Association,
ISSUES A STIRRING ADDRESS TO members
Calling Them to Meet in Convention at
Memphis, Tenn, December 20, to
Devise Ways to Meet and Combat
the Present Industrial Condition.

Hon. Hector d. Lane, Of Alabama,
president of the American Cotton
G1Dwers' Protective Association, has
issued an address to the cotton grow
ers Of America calling meeting of the
association at Memphis, December 20.
President Lanes address is as fol-
lows:
'In response to the earnest request
of large number of the most promi-
nent cotton growers of the South, rep
resenting nearly the entire cotton belt,
I am again induced to call the cotton
growers of the South to meet in con-
vention for the purpose Of and with
the hope that through mature deliber-
alton we may arrive at intelligent con-
illusions as to the best procedure to
meet and combat the industrial condi-
tions that now confront us.
''It is the opinion OF the best minds
of your country that this consumma-
tion can only be reached by resolute,
continuous and systematic rule of
action laid down by authorized repre-
sentation, and adhered to by the
masses of the cotton growers.
Il shall not waste space by indulging
in arguments of the necessity of this
action. Five cent cotton and its nat
ural effect is its own most potent
pleader in this cause, and the sounding
adjectives of the orator and the we'll
rounded sentences of the journalists
are not necessary to awaken the south
to the sad realization of our condition
and what is to follow without remedial
action on these lines. The Importance
of the situation addresses itself to our
common country.
"There is no one interested in the
material prosperity of the south who
will not have to bear their pro rata of
this burden. Upon the part of the
American Cotton Growers Protective
Association I appeal to all of our peo-
pie to join us in patriotic, systematic
and conservative effort to cure these
ills that now afflict us. All agricul-
tural societies are requested to send
representation. We respectfully in
vite the presence of bankers, commits
sion men, merchants and all those
directly or indirectly interested in cot
ton growing"

REBELS FIRING UPON HAVANA.
A Band of Insurgents Making 1t Lively
for the Spanish.

A Band of Insurgents Making 1t Lively
for the Spanish.
On Sunday morning, for the first
time in the history of the Cuban war,
rebel bullets sought the palace in
Havana, according to dispatch
from Havana. The shots came
from Casa Blanca, six hundred yards
while nobody was hurt, the palace with
its numerous lights, was a shining
mark, and must have heen hit. The
Spanish authorities attempted to make
light of the affair, but at the same time
reporter for La Lucha, who was on
the spot, attempted to publish the
facts and was arrested and is still in
communicate.
The attack on Casa Blanca was made
by Brigadier General Raefel Cardenas
and fifty rebels. They entered town
shortly before midnight on horseback,
and at the end of four hours each man
led out of town horse with one extra
he had appropriated laden with cloth
ing, provisions, silver plate and con-
SluerdDle uiouoy. DolOIo Iuoy ioie
they fred two volleys across the mar
row harbor entrance at the palace and
then coolly retired to friends house
inside the Spanish lines and took sup
per, previously ordered All this was
done under the guns of Castle Moro.
1t is learned from an insurgent
source that the object of the rebels
was to effect the release of Gen. Ruis
Rivera and hand citizen named Flu
merio, who is known as Spanish spy.
They failed in the first only because of
some misconception regarding the ap-
pointed time on the part of the con-
federates inside the prison, with whor"
arrangements had been made to admin
the raiders into the fortress. Fumerio
managed to escape across the harbor.

SENATOR JAMES X. JONES.
He is Opposed to the Annexation OF
Hawaii.


Senator James X. Jones, of Arkan-
sas, chairman of the democratic ma
tiona1 committee, has expressed his
opinion of the Hawaiian annexation
scheme, as follows:
81 am opposed to it:
81. Because I am unalterably op-
posed to extending our territorial lin
its beyond this continent.
SO. Because the Hawaiian Islands
are SO remote from our coast line.
Our defense in the event of war would
be enormously expensive and trouble
some to us.
''3. Because they do not comprise
sufficient area to make a state, and
their maintenance as territory would
violate the intent of the constitution.
81. Because it would be almost i'm
possible for congress to devise gov
ernment for them that would not re-
suit in confusion and failure.
"5. Because of the unfit and undesir-
able character of the population. No
matter how favorable surroundings for
improvement might be made, the large
percentage of the population would re-
main unfit for citizenship.
"These reasons seem to me to be
self-evident and convincing.

To Induce Sleep.

To the MANY who are troubled Dy
restless nights it will pc of interest I"
know the methods used by Or. j. b.
Learned. of Northampton, Mass, Tor
inducing cleep without taking drugs.
He detailed his experience at the re-
cent meeting of the British Medlcal
Association at Montreal. AS the brain
running automatically, without our
consent, is generally the cause OF delay
in sleep coming, he at once, upon re-
tiring. sets his brain working to dlrect
the respiratory process. The resplra-
tions must be counted to see that they
are fewer in number, regular, deep,
and somewhat contracted. In addition,
certain groups of muscles are employed
in silent contraction, in routine order.
Constant change brings different
groups in use. The head may be
slightly elevated from the pillow for a
certain time by the count of respira-
tions. All this may be done so quietly
that a sleeping companion is not
aroused. Soon muscle and brain are
in the normal state that invites sleep.
The sense of fatigue causes the brain
to forget its duty to regulate the
breathing process, the muscles cease to
expand, and sleep controls the whole
system. The principles are the same
for strong and weak, although the de-
tails of the method of inviting sleep
are different M
