Gentlemen Not quite two years
ago secured through you the services
of Mr.. Geo Bell, one of your pupils,
as correspondence clerk and stenogra-
pher in my office, at salary of $500
per month. We have found him ac-
ceptable in every respect. At an early
date we will promote him to position
in our Kansas City office as stenogra-
pher, paying him $4,000 per month.
We viii peed some one like him to fill
the vacahcy made by him and for the
right kindSo man can pay $50 90 per
month. Have you an honest, moral
and capable young man whom you
could recommend. Will be glad to
receive reply by return mail.
Being an old Union City boy, feel
an interest in advancing boys from
my own home wherever possible.

Dear Sir: We are IN receiptof your
letter of recent date, and in reply beg
to state that we are very much pleased
to know Of the succesA of one of our
former students, Mr. George Bell.
We are very sorry, however, to state
that we do not at the present have
anyone that we can recommend to you,
owing to the fact that the. demand
for our students is far greater than
we can supply.
We have been compelled for Che past
several months TO send out oar stu
dents TO lucrative and responsible po-
sitions before or upon completion Of
their course. The success we have in
placing our students is phenomenal
We could at the present time place ia
responsible positions 25 to 30 young
men, at salaries ranging from $50 90
TO S75 90 per month.
Z II you should be in need of anyone
in three or four months from now,
perhaps we could be OF mutual as
sistauce.
Thanking you for gour kind inquiry,
and wishing Continuance OF your in
quiries, we are,

NH STATEMENTs OF
3 ACTUAL FACTS.

Never before in the history OF
the cotton trade has such a multi
tutidinous amount of "Bear" dope
aud intentional misrepresentation
of actual facts been given to the
South through paid advertisements
in the columns of the press and by
the distribution of circular letters
through the mails. Operators who
are moving heaven and earth to
depress future contracts and the
prices of spot cotton are cudge!ing
their brains IN the modern art of
Juggling figures and making new
high records in distorting statistics
in the supreme effort to make a
small yield of American cotton
take on the appearance of a plen-
tiful supply. Hundreds of thou
sands of dollars have been expend
ed in the past two months in cable
grams, kilograms, paid articles in
newspapers, postage and market
letters in herculean undertaking
to deceive the public, discourage
the farmers and local spot holders
into rushing the remnant of this
crop on the market, unsettle pub
lie opinion in the South Temporal
rily so as to break the market and
induce liquidation. The spinners
have threatened to withdraw from
the market, which is an absurdity
in the face of their enormous com
mitments of the entire output of
their mills for the next six to eight
months. Prominent Bear" lead
ers take peculiar interest in daily
publishing comparative estimates
of this crop with years that have
gone before. These tangled and
mGchly juggled statistics emanate
from the offices of gentlemen who
breathe the atmosphere of a eli
mate one thousand miles from
Southern cotton fields and whose
eyes have not witnessed the actual
condition of a single cotton field
ia the South this year. The sta.
tistics and daily reports which
they put out in the stupendous Of
fort for private gain are simply |
the Nightmares of overcharged
brains rejecting individual views

in the forlorn hope of changing at
least temporarily the laws of sup
ply and demand. The interest of
the spot holder is not considered.
The great desideratum is paper
contracts and hot air. Thousands
of people read this Bearish Dope"
scattered over the South daily and
know it to be false, yet they trem-
BILE in doubt and surrender their
honest convictions and Southern
manhood before the edicts which
emanate from the fine Italian
hands of their enemies. This crop
can no more be compared with
past yields in the matter of pick
ing, ginning and selling than could
the enormeGs production of 1904.
Let every man in the South stand
pat on the actual conditions which
confront him. Spurn these Jug
gled statistics as you would an
adder invading the holy precincts
of your home and remain fixed
and uhalterable in your determi
nation to secure higher prices for
the balance of this crop, which
will unquestionably prove to be
one of the smallest grown in a
number of years.

naval revolt at Sebastopol, November
last, who was tried by court martial,
and shot near Otschakoff fortress
south Russia, yesterday, with three
sailors, sentenced to death for NUT
my, is being made a hero and a
martyr by the revolutionists. The
Russ prints a detailed account of the
execution.
The condemned men were taken to
the small deserted island of Borizon
and shot at sunrise. Schmidt ad-
dressed the executioners, sixty sailors
saying: Il die for the Russian peo-
pie and the fatherland, anu many of
you, doubtless, will hereafter share
death for the same cause
Schmidt refused to accept the sac
rament, and asked not to be blind
folded. He met death with eyes open
and head up, Tho firing party was
stationed at fifty PAGES. Two sailors
were killed at the first volley, md
one more at the third Schmidt did
not fall until the fourth voney.

CONFERENCE DECIDEDLY
HOPEFUL OF RESULTS.

Algeciras, March 20.-EXtreme ami
nation prevails here, the delegates to
the Moroccan conference believing
that final results are near at hand.
Unless an agreement is speedily Sc
cured, the representatives of neutral
powers threaten to interrogate French
and German representatives before
the conference. NJ Regnault, second
delegate of the French mission, has
taken the initiative and has prepared
a draft agreement seeking to recon-
cile French and Autro-German pro-
jects. The committee already has
approved a portion of the Regnault
plan, but the disputed positions rela-
tive to the inspection of the Morocco
an police remains unsettled.
Held No Session Today.
The Moroccan conference did not
hold a session today, but the COM
mittee discussed the French and Aus
trian police projects. A concnIatory
spirit prevalIs but no definite con-
clusion was reached and the decision
went over until tomorrow The feel
ing among the delegates has improved
owing to a resumption of delibera-
tions, although no new tangible de-
velopments have occurred.

DETRIMENTAL TO DIGNITY
OF UNCLE SANS NAVY

Washington. d. c., March 20.-rhe
Navy Department has had its atten-
rion called by several observing cor
respondents in various parts of the
country to the advertisements of pat
ent medicine companies which are
publishing in connection with the ex-
pIoitation of their nostrums the test
imonials, together with the portraits
of leading naval officers. There is
no way of preventing this sort of pub
lcity, provided the officers them
selves authorize the use Of their
names and photographs, but in each
case the Navy Department is asking
if such authority has been given and
pointing out, that in any event it
would be well for the dignity Of the
service that the people prominently
-touted" in these advertisements
promptly express their disapproval OF
such publicity. It has been found in
a number of cases that the advertis-
ers who make this use of the names
titles and likenesses OF prominent
naval officers TO bolster up the. vir-
tues of their wares possess no author
ity for employing such means of ad-
vertisement. 1t is likely that this
form of advertising will be prohibited
by the officers who are the chief vic

HARDWARE MEN OF
MINNESOTA IN SESSION.

Minneapolis, Mimi. March 20.-The
annual convention of the National
Retail Hardware Dealers association
opened here today. The attendance
is unusually large, and every state
and territory is well represented. The
convention will last three days. 1t
Is expected that the convention will
renew its campaign against the par
GELS pos. proposition. and will adopt
strong resolutions in opposition to it.
On the other hand the convention will
undoubtedly favor a reduction IN the
rate on first class mail matter from
two to one cent for each ounce. The
delegates will argue that the reduc-
tion of the rate on first classs mail
matter will be of greater benefit to
the public in general, while the par
GELS post would involve great cost to
the government and would benefit
mail order houses to the disadvantage
of the small retailers.
