Waco, Aug. 2s.-The monthly re-
port Of the Southwestern Buyers
Cotton Association was issued this
morning and is as follows: "Our re-
plies from correspondents mp to the
25th instant relative to the condi-
ton of the cotton crop of Texas
makes the condition 60 as against
IS last month and 81 on July % last
year Except in limited area in the
northern part of the state the pro-
Ienged drouth has caused serious
damage to the crop. The unusually
small plant has ceased growing and
the shedding of the blooms and
squares has been general. The bolls
on the plant are much below normal,
both in number and size, and in
nearly all the drouth stricken dis
tricts they are opening prematurely.
While the weevils have been held in
check to a great extent by the drouth
and heat, they have nevertheless
continued to do some damage. lnelr
injurious effects are most apparent
in the southern, eastern and central
portions of the state. Rain would
probably be of some benefit in de-
veloping the hollis already formed
but our correspondents in the wee
vii districts are of the opinion tina
ii is too late for new fruit whicl
might form as a result of moistur
to make any important addition t.
the crop.

SOUTHERN RAILWAY
TO CUT THE NUMBER
OF PASSENGER TRAINS


The following from the Constitution
of yesterday will le OF interest in
Brunswick as this city is in the At
lanta-Brunswick division Of the South
ern railway
ARRANGEMENTS are being made for
the dropping off of a number Of pas
senger trains on the Southern rail-
way on March "a. and those in posi-
ton to know state that these plans
viii affect the Atlanta division par
ticulaIly Except for the Information
that number OF passenger trains
were TO be cut Off. none of the de-
tails could bo learned.
the cutting down OF expenses is
given as the reason for the coatcm-
plated cut. So far as the service is
concerned it is a matter Of genuine
knowledge that SO heavy has been
the passenger traffic lately that TIE
present number Of trains has really
been inadequate for the handling OF
the business. E5r this reason it Is
a dlfacul problem to understand Just
how the Southern railway will be
able to still handle its present pas-
sengor business with even fewer
trains than they now operate. espec- 4
tally in face Of the fact tnat the pas
senger business is constantly growing.
mo reasons have been given for
the cutting down Of the expenses. but
In Atlanta railroad circles when the
coming cut, March "a is being dis
cusaed, it is generally believed that
tears on the part Of the railroad exc
outiyes regarding coming legislation
IN the legislature is principally re-.
sponsible for the curtailment OF pas

The Plausible Lie.

We resent calumny, hypocrisy and
treachery because they harm us, not
because they are untrue. Take the de-
traction and the mischief from the un
truth, and we are little offended by it,
Turn it into praise, and we may be
pleased with it. And yet it is not cal
umny and reachery that do the lar"
gest sum Of mischief in the world
They are continually crushed and are
felt only in being conquered. But it is
the glistening and softly spoken lie,
the amiable fallacy, the patriotic lie Of
the historian, the provident lie Of the
politician, the jealous lie of the parti-
san, the merciful lie Of the friend and
the careless lie Of each man to himself
that cast that black mystery over hui
manity through which we thank any
man who pierces it as we would thank
one who dug a we'll in a desert. Hap
py that the thirst for truth remains
with us even when we have willfllly
left the fountains of it.-John Ruskin.
