indispensable condicion- para que la

GEORGIA SYRUP FOR NAVY.
Specifications Call for Samples OF
This Product and No Other.

The United States navy, through it's
board of inspection. has determined 20
use no other syrup except Georgia
syrup in the United States ships. in
its specifications calling for bids for
furnishing syrup in the navy it is es
pecially set down that bids will be
considered upon only one quality OF
syrup, and only one sample shall be
sent-and that a two-quart sample OF
pure sugar syrup known to the trade
as straight cane syrup, or Georgia
syrup.
In recent years the syrup trade has
assumed large PROPORTIONS in Georgia.
This decision of the navy department
will doubtless compel the trade to
make it's geatest output. The govern
ment has a refining station at Way
cross.
Since only Georgia syrup will be
considered there is little doubt but
that the syrup will be made in this
state. If Georgia concern is awarded
the contract the result will be not only
q booming of the syrup trade, but
should also be bonanza for the barrel
makers, for the specifications further
stlpulate that the prodact shall be
shipped in half barrels, and that these
barrels shall be entirely new, made OF
the best seasoned heartrof white oak
slaves and headings.

TAGdERT IS FOR BRYAN.
The Chairman Sees No Hope fol

A press dispatch from Indianapolis
says: "The conference between wes'
tern members of the national demo-
cratic committee and Mr.. Taggert
last week are beginning to bear
fruit, and it is announced by friends OF
the national chairman that he will not
only not oppose the efforts of Bryan 60
reorganize the party, but will cor
daily join with him in the attempt
Mr.. Taggert said little to Messrs. Sui
livan, Ryan, Rothwell and others who
conferred with him on the SUBJECT
but he has since talked the subject
over. with Indiana leaders, and mas
been convinced that the only salVatloh
of the party lies in separating it from
the gold democratic contingent in the
east, which dominated the national ex-
ecutive committee in the last cam
paicu,"

HARVEY AGAIN SAYS HOLD.
MR.. JORDAN OF COTTON GROWERS
ASSOCIATION ISSUES LETTER.
Says Slump In Price of Cotton Is I'm.
righteous Robbery and Other
UngentlemanIy Things.

Hon. Harvey Jordan, president OF
the Southern Cotton Growers Pro-
tective Association, has issued an ur-
gent appeal to the farmers of the
south TO hold their cotton for better
prices.
"Do not get discouraged or timid,
out store your cotton under cover or
in ware houses and there let it rest"
is the key note of President Jordan's
circular letter. The letter in full fol-
lows:
"Shall the south quietly surrender
to the dictation of few Wall street
gamblers in depressing the price of
our great staple crop last week from
nine and half to seven cents per
pound: or will they rise in their man
hood and refuse to submit TO this un-
holy sacrifice
"The bearish bureau report issued
from the department of agriculture on
December 3rd, indicating a crop of
II, 1852, 900 bales, gave the spectators
the opportunity they had been pray
ing for, and in less than thirty min.
utes nearly $30,0OO,00O in value was
struck from the pockets of southern
farmers. The bureau report exceeded
the expectations of the most extreme
bear tspeculators, and but few well
posted men in the south believe for
moment that the yield this season will
ever reach the high estimate placed
upon the crop by the bureau. The
report was based upon a theoretical
acreage of about 80, 100000 acres, and
indicates yield far in excess of that
indicated by the amount of cotton
ginned 40 to November l4tn. in the
census report. Either one or the
other of these reports is wrong.
'The ginners' report is based upon
facts as ascertained at the gins, while
the bureau report as issued last Satur
day is guess work. The irecent heavy
depression in the price OF spot cotton
has been caused by a lot of gamblers
and spectators who neither produce
nor weave a pound of cotton. Every
dollars loss on cotton sold at present
prices will go into the pockets of these
spectators, and it remains for the
present owners and holders of at least
100000 bales of this crop to say
whether this unrighteous hold-up
and high handed robbery shall be
quietly submitted to. The mills had
already bought their supplies for flu
ture delivery from these exporters
and spectators at prices ranging
around ten cents per pound, and the
manufacturers will not be able to share
in the heavy slump in prices"

TRUE TO HIS CONVICTIONS.
Sheriff Resigned Office Rather
Than Hang a Man.

The county sheriff at Trenton, N. J
receives about S2E 900 year. A year
ago William M. johnson was elected
sheriff. Among the duties of the
sheriff is that of executing CONDEMNED
prisoners. Mr.. Johnson is a Quaker,
and is opposed to capital punishment.
He got along in his Office finely until a
murder occurred in his county and the
murderer was sentenced to be hanged,
Sheriff johnson did all he could to
secure a communication of the mans
sentence, but failed. Finally, when
he saw there was nothing to be done
except hang the man if he remained
in office, Sheriff Johnson resigned. He
wouldn't violate his religious convic.
tions, even for $25.0O0-a-year office
There are SO few politicians like him
that the case is worthy of mention.
