THE PLAGUE BACILLI.

VIENNA, July 6.-The special COM
mission sent to India to study the bu-
bonic plague, reports that in a ma
jority of cases of the bacilli enter the
body through the skin, although they
sometimes enter through the lungs or
tonsils. The period of incubation is
from four to five days. The rat appears
to be the only animal spontaneously
affected, and it is not likely the dis
ease will enter Europe under the pres

perhaps, through rats in ships.

HON. O. b. STEVENS.

Another Strong Endorsement Of His Cam
didacy for Commissioner of Agriculture
From the Townsville Times.
Within the past few weeks the next
campaign in Georgia has been taking
shape. 1t was expected that with the
meeting of the legislature this would be
the case. The goyernorship and state
house officers haze been freely and full
ly discussed. Among the we'll known
Georgians tho have decided to enter the
field of state politics is the Hon. 0. B.
Stevens of Terrell. He is a candidate
for commissioner of agriculture. Here
tofore his political asnirations have not
gone beyond the bounds Of the second
district. However, there are few men
more generally known and more highly
esteemed in Georgia than lobe Stevens.
Of course we know him better down
here than others in distant sections of
the state. Capable, loyal and true, he
has never failed to measure up and to
take his place, whether leading or in the
ranks. He is, by both education and
practical experience, eminently fitted and
qualified to ill the position to which he
aspires, and the second district and this
whole section will stand by him in his
canvas. 1t is a case where solid merit
will tell, for no one who knows the man
will doubt for a moment his qualitica,
tons to ill the office, In close touch
with the farmers, and having their inter
est at heart. he would render them
invaluable service as commissioner of
agriculture.
This section has been very modest in
the matter of asking for state offices, and
now that a gentleman against whom
nothing can be said, and one especially
qualified to fill the position, has an
nOunced for commissioner of agriculture
we hope that other SECTIONS of the state
will show that they are willing to tote
fair.

DAWSON asa COTTON MARKET.

Dawson is one OF the very best cotton
markets in Georgia. Not counting
the thousands of bales which have been
shipped here over the railroads for
compression there have been received
in Dawson this season $4,000 bales of
cotton. These 10000 bales were haul
ed here in wagons by the farmers of
Terrell and adjoining counties and
stored in the warehouses and sold to
the buyers of the city. Before the
season is over the receipts will have
reached 20, 600 bales or more.
This speaks volumes for our business
men and our cotton buyers, and more
than sustains DawsOn's claim as a lead
ing cotton market of the state AT
$50 per bale it means S600,O0 paid to
the farmers for cotton hauled into
Dawson this season.
Is there a town of Dawson size that
can touch this record? We congratu-
late the business men, the merchants
and the cotton buyers.
THE annual report of the bureau of
internal revenue presents some inter
esting information. 1t shows that the
number of saloon-keepers licensed by
the government has decreased 1O.3N
IN twelve months. There is no state or
territory that has not its saloons, even
Alaska having l47 saloons and six
breweries. Georgia, by the way, has
not many more licenses than the Dis
trictof Columbia, which could sbe get
down in one corner Of a Georgia coun.
ty. The report shows that the con.
sumption Of whiskey has decreased
but more cigars have been smoked, dur.
ing the last year.

had recOunted his works and bravery,
they tenderly took the casket on their
