PRAISES The PRESIDENT,
Prominent Alabama Democrat Says Some
Niee Things About the Nations
Chief Executive.

A number OF leading citizens Of
Birmingham, Ala, went to Washing
ton last week to extend an invitation
to President Roosevelt TO visit the
thriving Alabama city on the occasion
of his southern tour next summer
Among the party was Hon. William
Bremen, mayor of Birmingham, who
has been a Democrat all of his life
and is prominent in the councils Of
that party in Alabama. That the
president impressed Mr.. Drennen as
being the right man In the right place
is evidenced by the following state
ment made by the Albanian to rep
resentative of the Associated Press
and published in the New Orleans
Times-Democra of Wednesday:
"We've got man up yonder in
Washington that is president Of all Of
the people all the time. I went to
ashington last Tuesday night, imag-
lining that President Roosevelt was a
brusque, abrupt, burly, strenuous,
boisterous, domineering Atty
a sort OF half crank and half genius,
cross between a broncho buster and
sword swallower.

WINGED that there is not in this round
world more gentle, refined, gracious,
winning, cordial, sympathetic and
lovable gentleman than the man who
greeted US last Friday at the White
House.

party who had the pleasure of meeting
the president left the White House sat-
fsfed that the chief magistrate of this.

man. The feeling with all Of US was
that he is one Of the best and greatest
men who have yet held that exalted
Office.
president Roosevelt is manly
through and through. He is proud of
his country aud of his countrymen.
Unless / miss my guess, he will grow
steadily in public estimation and will

Business In New Orleans.

The following excerpts from Dun S
| Review OF Jan. 7, showing general
and market conditions at New Orleans.
will prove Of interest:
General Trade for the
week has been rather quiet, owing To-
the holidays and 80 the fact that
country merchants in the cotton Sec
tions continue to buy sparingly, owing
to the depression and low price of
cotton. The merchants and planters
in the sugar section are all prosperous.
The grinding Of cane has been com
pleted on a number Of plantations and
it is expected that the remainder will
be finished BY the end OF the month.
Conditions for the harvesting of the
crop have been unusually good, the
tonnage has been large and the output
will be the greatest for a number of
years. Prices have been very satisfae-
tory. Jobbers and manufacturers in
all lines report the result of the years
business as having been satisfactory,
both as to volume and as to results.
The amount Of business trans acted has
been unusually large. The bank clear
ings also show an increased business,
the increase for 1904 over 1903 being
s143, 218, 134.
Cotton-Cotton reacted and during
the week advanced from 80 to 60 points,
but heavy selling on Thursday caused
a slight declines futures closing only
fairly steady. Spots have advanced
one-fourth Of 8 cent and, owing to the
disposition of holders not to sell, the
spot market has been very firm. Buyers
have a great deal of difficulty in ex-
eeuting orders at prevailing quota
tions. Receipts OF cotton are 6, 06O, 255
bales, against 1881, 3344 bales. Stocks
at all ports are 81. 1888 bales, against
e1O,981 bales.
Sugar-Receipts Of plantation sugar
have been comparatively heavy, but
the market rules strong and some
grades are up 1-16. Refined sugars are
in fairly good demand and firm.
Rice-Dan Talmage's Sons report
the Louisiana movement as follows:
Receipts for the season to ate, 1,247.-
oo0sacks rough, against i, 1884, 455 sacks
last year; sales of 784, sos pockets
cleaned, compared with III, 945 pockets
a year ago.

Do Not Suppress a Cough.

When you have a cough do not try to
suppress it, but remove the cause. The
cough is only a symptom of some disease,
and he disease is what you should cure then
the cough will stop itself The most common
cause Of coughing is a cold. Anodynes will
promptly suppress the cough. and preparations
for that purpose. but they do not cure the
cold. Ghamberlain's Cough Remedy on the
other hand does not suppress the cough, but
relieves il BY removing from the throat and
ing and allaying the irritation and tickling in
the throat. 1T also opens the secretions and
etfectually and permanently cures the cold as

Poison In Java.

The natives in Java have a natural
poison to aid them in avenging them
selves against their enemies. It is a
strong fluid found in the bark of the
upas tree. The bark is over an inch
thick and is very spongy. A drop Of
the fluid on the skin causes intense ir-
ritation. A private revenge is satisfied
by hiding a cup of this fluid in the room
Of the enemy, and then the avenger
fees, for we'll he knows that by morn
ing his victim will have crossed the
high divide. The fluid produces stu
por, which finally ends in death.
