Campaign Committee Holds h~Ebe
 Mass Meeting at DemOpOis.
 Demopolis, Oct. 15.-The new coun- ties campaign committee held very large mass meeting here Tuesoay night and decided to make vigorous campaign for the Ragsdale amend ment.
 Since the Commercial Club of Bir- minEham recently sent out an address asking the people to oppose the amend ment, our people feel that these drains will be so flagrantly unjust to others snch as Bessemer and this section, that voters will be largely influenced to vote in favor of the amendment. At the mass meeting 1t was pointed out that the politicians of Birmlngnam' who are opposing the amendment, want to retain their power in the party councils and in the Legislature, with their large delegation. always ready to trade for, something. The masses, it was pointed out, will resent this ef fort on the part of the Commercial Club of Birmingham, as enunciated by

The committee with headquarters In this city has thirty counties to can vass and work will be done. It was pointed out that the people of old Ala bama were for a square deal. home rule and self government. and will stand by the amendment, if made &C., ouainted with It's provisions.
 The death of Mir. M. Ely, who was elected councilman to serve in May and was serving his second term as a member of the county commissioners. will necessitate the ordering of an election in the near future to fill these vacancies.

COTTON INQUIRIES
HFFovv INCREASE FROM SHIPPERS
 AND MIDDLEMEN.
aRer of One or Two-sfxteenths More For Spots Interfered With
 Memphis Holding
 Propaganda.

Being offered one or two more six leenths than the quotations have been funning lately. was too great tempta- lion for some farmers Thursday. and they let their cotton go. The increas- ing inquiries from shippers and mid flemen have boosted the price a trihe and some cotton was sold. A price of 3 11-1e is now offered for spots. and Tn spite of advice from HarVie Jordan and others having the general inter ests of the cotton growers at heart, 1t Is being taken.
 It was thought the meetings called for in Atlanta, New Orleans, and Mem phis would have the effect of screwing up the market tight, but still enough sales are made to prevent the effect the promoters of the farmers inter- ests are striving for.
 It was said by some Thursday that the sales now taking place are the result of correspondence before the hold" meetings were suggested and that in a day or so the market will have come to a standstill as far as selling goes.
