GOOD WORK OF CHAIRMAN eRIGGs.
He Admirably Managed the Demo
cratic Congressional Campaign.

Washington, Aug. s.-zRepresentative
Griggs, chairman of the Democratic
congressional committee left Washing
ton this mroning for his home IN
Georgia. Having just been renominat-
ed, he felt that he ought to 60 nome
and rejoice with his friends. he mas
been hard at work since ne was CHOSEN
chairman of the committee and ne
needs a weeks vacation.
The work at Democratic headquar-
tres has been admirably managed thus
far and Chairman Griggs is the right
man in the right place.
During his absence Senator Car
mack, ably assisted by Secretary Ed
wards, will keep the Democratic ball
moving.
Before. taking his departure for home
Chairman Griggs telegraphed Repre-,
sentativss Pierce, Patterson, Sims and
John Wesley Gains, of Tennessee, ask
ing them to Join Representative Liy-
ineston in a. political tour Of Maine.
REPRESENTATIVE Livingston was the
frs volunteer for the Maine campaign.
Chairman Griggs is feeling very
cheerful over yesterdays action OF the
American Butchers Association. Be-
fore leaving headquarters for home ne
said: g I regard the action taken yes
terday by the butchers, IN pledglng
themselves and instructing the mem
bers Of their local organizations to
vote and work for the election of men
to Congress who were pledged to the
abolition of the tariff on meat and beef
cattle as fully iustifying the Demo.
cratic contention that the people OF
the country are thoroughly interested
in and demand revision Of the tariff
and that restraining hand be put
upon the trusts and combinations.
Such practical demonstrations as
the retail butchers will be able to make
daily of the influence of trust on the
price Of one of the articles OF prime
necessity, meat, will, without ques-
tion, operate to swing the tide Of popu-
lar sentiment in favor Of that party
which stands for a revision OF the
tariff laws Of the country to the end
that such outrageous impositions can
not be maintained, and that the DEM
ocratic party is that party.

Negro Gives Good Advice to Ne
gross.

Atlanta, Ga, August THE fea-
ture of the negro Young Peoples Chris
tian and Educational Congress, which
met here today, was the wise and con-
sservative address of the president,
Bishop Wesley j. Gaines Of the Afri-
can Methodis st Church.
Fully seven thousand negroes gath
cred in the Agricultural building at
Piedmont Park for the opening ses-
sion of the congress, which is the most
extensive convention of colored people
ever held in the United States. Ad-
dresses of welcome were made by Gov
ernor Gambler, of Georgia, and Mayor
Minis, of Aslanta.
Bishop Gaines, In the course OF his
address, said In part:
The race question will adjust 1T
self naturally, for God has ordained
that a. good and wise people will pros
per anywhere and everywhere. Let
the respectability Of intelligence and
Christian character clothe man, and
despite his race and despite his color,
no opposition and prejudice Will pre-
vent his making progress towards
wealth, happiness and prosperity. |
believe that the better class OF white
people in this country are anxious to
see the nergo become a wise, intelil-
gent and thrifty citizen. Many Of them
are helping forward his education by
their money and influence. We would
be lacking in gratitude to the white
men, both of the North and South,
did we not gratefully acknowledge
their philanthropic gifts to the cause
of negro education.
ssOur white friends are not onr enc
mics, and though often the worst ,ele-
ments of our race. bring shame upon
Us, they are wise enough and generous
enough not to discount those Of US
who are honestly trying to make good
citizens. In this movement we will
have the hearty Endorsement of the
better class of white people of this
country, and the negro Of intelligence
and character has nothing to fear from
this class, who wish him to better his
condition. They furnish no barriers
to his Industrial betterment, but will
gladly open to him avenues of employ
ment and useful labor.
When the negro shall have justified
his position by thus fitting himself both
in character and intelligence for the
best citizenship, his rights before the
law will be more sacredly regarded,
and all complaints of injustice, now
sometimes unfortunately too well
founded, will be at an end.'

not so much the report in itself, as the 1act

A good many small lines OF long wheat were
carried. Even the most sangulne pulls Ielt
that anything in the report bearish enough
to start decline would jar out some OF the
weak holders. This was what happened
The government report showed yield per
acre of 1919, on Al, 735, 900 acres, indicating
crop Of 676 S7S, 900 bushels. The September re-
port suggested yield of 1871 bushels or
crop of 627, 900, 000 The present report IN
creases the estimate about 40, $1,000 bushels.
Some increase in the government estimate
had been expected. Even at this the report
estimates the crop smaller than either Snow
OF the Price Current and should not be much
of a bearish factor. Nevertheless the old rule
hat Il government report breaks the market
held good again. Some short selling was
noted on the decline These shorts believe
there is more long wheat in the hands or
weak holders and that a visible increase on
Monday or any additional bearish news, will
force it on the market.
