Will Be Difficult for Democrats
To Find a Giver Like
Tom Taggart.
OPPOSITION TO HIM WEAK.

indianapolis. Ind, March 1o,-Whila
there is plenty of opposition 10 the re
election of T. T. Taggart as commit
teemau. no one has been announced as
a candidate 10 oppose him. J. Kirby
Risk is said 10 have designs on the
place. as he regards himself as the
chosen one of all of Bryan's personal
followers in Indiana.
The fact that Taggart proposes to re-
tire as national chairman and has been
a heavy contributor TO the campaign
fund, is causing members of the or
ganization TO discounrenance the
movement 10 defeat him for commit
teeman. In fact. any of the leaders
are afraid that it will prove difficult To
get new lamb" To put up funds for
the party who has been as ready TO
stand for heavy assessments as Tag
cart. While he is charged with using
the organization 10 further his COM

that he has been the chief contributor
10 the campaign fund.

that they could be used with safety to

and awaited the crash. Motorman
Hughes, on the freight car, also quick
ly reversed his car and hurried back
10 the rear end. He escaped serious
injury.

COTTON Is running AS
RESULT OF DROUGHT
Heavy Decrease is Expected
Here Now.

Intensely hot weather following
the continued drought prevailing
throughout this section has already
played havoc with the cotton crop,
and Americus cotton men and farm
ers alike look for a greatly decreased
yield from former estimates. There
is little vitality left in the plant and
in many localities not another boil
will be taken on The fields seem
dead under the blistering rays of an
August sun, and while cotton is open
ing rapidly there are no new bolls to
take the place of those picked over.
A much shorter crop than that of
last year will be the inevitable re-
suit here and this, with cotton bales
selling at an average of $3.50 per
bale less than last season, renders the
situation anything than cheering. At
this time last year, and for several
weeks later, cotton was bringing 13
cents per pound in Americus, or $65
per. average bale of 500 pounds in
weight. This season the price is 8
1-2 cents, or $47.50 per bale of 500
pounds The crop here last year
was probably the best on record while
the price was satisfactory as well,
more than half the crop having been
sold at a price above II cents pei
pound

PRESS WILL START UP
TODAY ON FIRST RUN
New Plant Will be Given q
First Test.

The Americus Compress Co.'S new
plant, leased to the Atlantic Compress
Co., as heretofore, will be started up
this morning for the first run of
cotton of the season. Since the plant
was completed a month or two ago
it has been thoroughly tested by
Supt. Tobin, and doubtless was found
to be in good trim for business. A
few bales only were pressed at that
time, simply to test the machinery,
but today the compress is regularly
put into commission again. The new
plant, taking the place of the one
burned in February last, has been
greatly enlarged and many needed i'm
provements made. The sheds and
platforms have been extended and
their capacity we'll nigh doubled, while
the press is entirely walled in on the
two sides next the railway tracks and
freight depot, rendering it more COM
Portable in winter and also providing
a safeguard against fire from passing
trains. The Americus press does a
very large business, handling usually
from $4,000 to 10000 bales annually.

GRE AMERY SITE
HAS BEEN SELECTED
Work on Building Will be
Begun Today.

AS a site for the new creamery, the
Executive Committee of the Ameri-
Gus Creamery Association yesterday
morning selected a lot on Hampton
street, south of Church, owned by
Mr. G. w Riley. The lot is 68 K 213
feet and was purchased for $500.
A number of sites were before the
committee but the one purchased was
deemed the best, all things consider
ed
This morning at o'clock the Exc
cutive Committee will gather on the
lot to survey, with Engineer w. T..
Wort, of the Chicago Company, the
cornerposts for the new building.
Ground will be broken at once and the
work pushed as rapidly as possible.
Two things absolutely essential to
the site were good sewerage for
promptly disposing of water or milh
residue, and the absence of any odors
One site was offered free, but as it
was near factory, it was passed up.
Everything about the creamery will
be conducted in the most cleanly man
ner. The milk will be brought in in
cans and treated at once, the cream
being turned into butter and the
SKINNED milk being set aside for the
owner.
The building itself will be 26 40
feet, and will be provided with a con-
crete floor 1t is to be built by the
Chicago company which is supplying
the plant. The lot is paid for by the
local company. The machinery will
be shipped as soon as the building is
far enough advanced to house it. 1t
is expected that the creamery will be
in full operation early in November.
Engineer Wort will remain here un-
til that time, and aid in getting the
institution started.
