A LIBERAL OFFER
The Owl Drug Store Guarantees to
Cure Dyspepsia. If They Fail, The
Medicine Costs Nothing.

To PROFESSIONALLY prove to the peo-
pie of Hattiesburg that indigestion and
dyspepsia is durable and that Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets will effect the cure,
we viii furnish the, medicine free If
it fails to give complete satisfaction
to anyone giving it a trial.
The remarkebale success of Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets is largely due to
the new and successful method of
manufacture, whereby the we1l-known
properties of Bismuth, Subnitrate and
Pepsin have been combined with car
initiatives and their agents.
Bismuth Subnitrate and Pepsin are
recognized by the entire medical pro-
fession as specifics for acute indiges-
ton and dyspepsia.
The Pepsin used in Rexall Dyspep-
STA Tablets is manufactured by a new
process which develops it's greatest
efficiency. Pepsin supplies to the d.
gestive apparatus one of the most i'm
portant elements of the digestive fluid
and exerts tonic influence upon all
! the glands which supply all the other
elements necessary to proper assimila-
ton and digestion.
The carminatives add properties
which promptly relieve the distrub-
ances and pain caused by undigested
food.
The perfect combination of these in
gradients make a remedy absolutely
incompatible and valuable for the
complete cure of indigestion and dys-
pepsia.
We are so positively certain of this
that we sell Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets
on our own personal guarantee that
they will either cure you or cost you
nothing. Three sizes, Csc, 45c and SOC.

The Hattiesburg News says: "The
country isn't going to the bow-wows,
no matter who is elected president"
This is true. This is the strongest
nation and the most uncrushable peo-
pie on earth. The American people
can lose enough every year to support
a nation of population equal to that
OF the United States and still live COM
fortably, and this is due to their en-
ergy and the natural resources of the
country and in spite of bad legisla-
tion.-Florida Times-Union.
The Hattiesburg News says: when
Roosevelt becomes an editor he will
have 10000 other editors talking back
at him. His Ananais club will then
jump by leaps and embrace the whole
Fourth Estate" AS matter Of fact
when Roosevelt becomes an editor he
will be lost. If he says more that is
worth discussing than he has said ul
to date very few will talk back al
him. Deprive Roosevelt of the big
stick of the presidential Office and
only a cipher will remain.-Florida

GINNERS' ASSOCIATION
ISSUES AN INTERESTING
REPORT ON COTTON CROF

where the crop is the shortest on re-
cord. The weather has been almost
perfect for over two months now and
with plenty of labor and cotton all
open earlier than known before in
years there is no reason why the gin
ming should not be even larger. The
farmers seem to have sold it very free
ly especially in Texas where the crop
is good in most of the counties, but
only few of them report as good as
1906 and they are some of the smaller
producing counties in the West and
Southwest. Ellis County has about
the best crop in the State and will
only make 141,OOO compared to 1872,
900 in 1906. There is large number
of counties making much less than
last years short crop. If the present
weather continues the crop will all
be picked by December list, except in
Oklahoma and Western Texas. Even
the Mississippi delta will be practical
ly through.
Cotton is a cent a pound lower than
last year at this time with the panic
, on in full blast while now business
has recovered to nearly the old basis
before the panic. The election is over
and large contracts are being placed
| for coal, iron, steel and other material
and it looks like every laborer in the
country will be at work in thirty days.
| The Mills have used up their WISH
BILE supplies, and at present prices,
/ would consume over 100000 bales
while the commercial crop will be at
least 100000 under that figure.
Notwithstanding the heaviest move
ment on record since October 18th,
the market has advanced $500 per
bale. Nearly all the members of the
New York and New Orleans Cotton
Exchange are bullish and have large
lines on contracts on the long side
the sales being nearly all Hedges
against the purchase of Spot Cotton
from the farmers. AS soon as the
heavy movement is over these hedge;
will be bought in and will cause the
market to advance gradually to much

EXHAUSTIVE REPORT

Members of the Committee Have Made

Valuable Material is Secured.
Hearst News Service.

Washington, November 9.-The ma
tional monetary commission, appoint
ted at the last session of congress to
devise plans for currency legislation
will hold a meeting in Washington to-
morrow.
Two subcommittee will present re-
ports to the general committee. One
of these, consisting of Senators Aid
rich, Hale, Knox and Daniel, and Rep
resentatives Vreeland, Overstreet,
Burton and Paggett, made a thorough
examination of the monetary and bank
ing systems OF the commercial nations
of Europe. The other subcommittee,
consisting of Senators Allison. Bur
rows, Teller, Money and Bailey, and
Representatives Bonynge, Burgess,
Smith and Hugo Weeks, was appoint
ed to take up for immediate consid-
GRAFTON the question of necessary
amendments to the administrative fea-
lures of the national banking laws.
Although the campaign interferred
/ somewhat with the progress or the in.
vestigation, much material has been
secured which will probably throw
light on needed improvements in con
Quoting the financial affairs of the
country
1t was learned today that the full
commission does not anticipate the
presentation of any general law at tho
next session Of Congress, but expects
to propose certain amendments having
to do with the administrative features
of national banks rather than the cur
rency.

health prevented it.
The charge iaagnst Pierce grew out
of alleged false statements made by
him in securing the re-admission Of
the Waters-Pierce Oil Company to
Texas, after it had been evicted as a
criminal trust. United States Senator
Joseph W. Bailey was involved in the
matter, and was alleged to have re-
ceived large sums from Pierce in re-
turn for legal services in aiding the
Oil company to evade the provisions
of the Texas antitrust law. Bailey
was subjected to a Legislative inves-
tigation and exhonerated, but the
Democratic split caused by the affair
has not yet been entirely healed.

years crop should sell for IL lie
and strongly advise the farmers not
to sell another bale under II cents I'M
less you have to meet your obligations.
Another reason we have got to have
higher prices, is that cotton can not
be grown in the boil weevil district
for less than II cents at a profit. The
Yield per acre is not half as much and
the cost of cultivation a great deal
more. AS this district now covers a
territory that produces over 100000
bales the price will have to advance or
the acreage in the weevil district will
be greatly reduced as to raise less
than the world needs and causes ex-
IRENE high prices as in 1908, which
the Spinners do not want.

probably passed out of political life,
at least so far as he himself Is con-
cerned.-Hattiesburg News.
Go slow here esteemed contempt
rary. BY the reports the Nebraska

are in error, it will elect democratic
successor to United States Senator
Burkett, whose term expires in March
1910. Who will offer odds that zone
of the greatest men of the country"
will not then be chosen for the SEN
atorship? And if elected to the SEN
ate in 1911, the year before the next
presidential election, why not-Vicks-
burg Herald.
Bryan will not be a candidate for
president again, but he may go to
the United States senate. God grant
that the people of Nebraska may see
the necessity for Bryan's service in
the senate. Never in the history of
America was there a greater demand
for men of the Bryan type in the
United States senate than this mo-
ment.. He is one man who has the
courage of his convictions and all the
wealth of the Standard Oil Company
and the Steel Trust and every other
trust in America could not tempt him
to betray the people who trust him. In
formation is not sufficiently definite
to determine the political complexion
of the Nebraska legislature. but if II
is democratic there is scarcely any
doubt about Bryan going to the sen
ate.-Jackson Issue.
