announcement was made until the
votes were counted it was apparent
that victory was certain.
The most important task of the new

exceptional care and judgment, realiz-
ing that the volume and character of
work performed by the lawmaking

New York, October 18.-Universa-
lists from all over the country are in
New York today in attendance at the
biennial session of the general conven-
ton of the denomination. A big meet
ing of laymen and woman's mission
airy meeting will be features of the
coRpention. The report of the secre-
<tary shows that the denomination has
invested fund of $4,000, the income
OF which is used to support home and
foreign missions.
Among other reports received was
a highly favorable one from the jap
anese mission, which was established
fifteen years ago. The Universalist
faith has proved particularly attrac-
tive to the upper class and educated
Japanese, and the denomination is
growing by leaps and bounds in the
flowery kingdom. 1t supports a CEN
trail school and church in Toxic and
many churches in other cities of the
empire, the pulpits of which are sup
piled for the most part by Japanese
clergymen.

nially. The convention is composed OF
the presidents, vice presidents and
secretaries of the state convention, and
of clerical and lay delegates appointed
by the state bdoies. All laws relating
to fellowship, ordination and discipline
originate in the general convention
and it is the final court of appeal in
all cases of difficulty or dispute be
tween state conventions.
One of the most interesting sub
jects to be considered, although nj
definite action is expected, is that o.
the merging of all liberal faiths, in
Guiding the Universalists an Unitar
ians. The recent international liberia
congress in Boston did much TOWARD
such movement, and it il
the opinion of many influential Uni

will be consolidated into one great or

PLANTERS ARE KICKING.
Rates of the Compress Trust Are Al
most Prohibitive.

Daily News Special.
Jackson, Miss, October 1S.-Not.
withstanding the explanation made by
President c. c. Hanson, of the Gulf
Compress Company, that the advance
in rates was ordered prior to the re-
cent antitrust litigation, and was
made necessary by the fact that no
revenue was being earned on the
plants of the corporation in this state,
cotton men are still protesting vigor-
ously against what they regard as ex-
cessive charges for service.
The advance of rates amounts to
about 80 1-3 per cent, as compared
with last years tariff, ant on several
items of service is much higher. For
instance, in 1906 the rate for handling
cotton. turning down and setting out
bales, etc., was cents per bale. This
year 1t is rs cents per bale. For a
second or subsequent setting out of
cotton for grading or sampling is 5
cents per bale.
The charge for reweighing when
worked on the edge is 10 cents; re-
sampling cents; storage after sixty
days, rs cents; delivering uncom-
pressed cotton to wagons or loaded
on cars, 35 cents; patching cotton
with bagging furnished by shippers,
8 cents per bale: APPLYING second
hand bagging, from 9 to 20 cents per
bale; new bagging, from 16 to 40 cents
per bale.
1t is apparent that the advances or
dered will take large sum of money
out Of the pockets. of the farmers in
this state, and they feel that they
are justified in entering a vigorous
complaint.

ARE IN DEMAND
INTEREST is DEVELOPING IN THE
COMING APPOINTMENTS.
There Are Several Places to Be Filled
by the Legislature, and the Appi-
cants Are Somewhat Numerous in
Some of the Places.
Daily News Special.


Jackson, Miss, October 1S.-A doz-
en- or more candidates have appeared
in the field for the minor positions
within the gift of the two branches
of the legislature, and the contests
for sergeantatarms and door-keep-
ers promise to be especially spirited,
with perhaps half dozen aspirants
for each place.
1t has been the custom for several
years to elect INDECENT Confeder-
ate veterans as doorkeepers, and this
custom will doubtless prevail at the
coming session. Each body is al
lowed sergeant-at-arms and post
mistress, and the latter places always
provoke lively contests, exceptionally
good pay being attached to the posi-
tons, with comparatively little work
to perform.
The election of Hon. L. Pink Smith
as clerk of the lower house is assured
Hon. John Y Murray, Jr., the present
incumbent, has only one opponent for
secretary of the senate.
The two houses in joint session will
elect state librarian for four-year
term, and thus far the present occu
pant Of that position, Miss Matte
Plunkett, has no opposition, nor does
it appear likely that she will be op
posed for the place, owing to the ex
ceptional character of the services she
has rendered during the past eight
years.
