MARKET
 FOR RAW COTTON Farmers Convention At New Orleans Will Discuss Matter PLANS FOR BIG WAREHOUSE Economical Handling of Crop Is Con- tempated and Great Saving to
 the Producer Will Be the
 General Result.
PLANS FOR BIG WAREHOUSE

New Orleans. November 3-(Speoial)- The problems incident to the development of an improved market for raw cotton will receive first attention at the National Farmers union convention, which is to be held in New Orleans November Il and F, along with the proposal to move the headquarters of the union to New Or leans. Some progress in this direction has already been made, but the interior warehouses and selling agencies have found that they are seriously handi- capped because they lack port ware houses and port selling facilities. hence the. importance of this subject during the New Orleans meeting.
 President c. S. Barrett has had these matters under serious consideration for some time, and has expressed much in- terest in the plan for the construction of a monster storage and export warehouse in this city which has been proposed by a prominent cotton merchant and planter. This plan provides for efficiency and min imum cost incident to the receiving of cotton from the trains and steamboats, it's sampling, marking and storage, and when sold maximum promptness in deliv- ering the cotton to the exporter on board the ship alongside the warehouse. The plan contemplates economies by reason of machinery equipment for handling and fireproof construction that will save the producer hundreds of thousands of dol- lars annually on fire insurance, probably million or two year on interest charges and a large amount on the elimination of country damage, while at the same time the value of each and every bale will be increased one or two dollars because 1t can be delivered to the ship on half an hours notice and because the spinner can buy it on the spot and by sample instead of by description, as is now generally the case
 The warehouse receipt issued by such an institution would be negotiable at any bank in Europe or America, and in that way millions of dollars in loans could easily be obtained at and per cent interest.
 It has been calculated that $5,000,000 will cover the cost of constructing such warehouse and that on the savings to the producer the warehouse would more than pay for itself in two years.
 By selling bonds this sum could be raised and the bonds paid off out Of the legitimate earnings of the warehouse.
 Another subject of importance to be considered is that of the night rider evil which has already been condemned un- qualifiedly by President Barrett. | The National Farmers union boasts a membership of over 100000 in the cot ton belt, and several thousand delegates are expected to attend the New Orleans convention next week. MT. Thomas Wat son of Georgia, one of the presidential candidates, will be a special attraction and the one-fare round trip railroad rate will, it is expected, bring many people to the convention and to the city.
 President Philip Werlein of the Pro- gressive union, which will entertain the delegates, promises good time for all who come.

GREAT INTEREST IN THE
 GOOD ROADS CONVENTION

Atlanta. November 3.-(Special.)-It is expected from the replies which have been received that 90 per cent of the counties in Georgia will have official representa- tives in attendance on the "good roads, convention called by the state prison com- mission, to be held in the hall of the house of representatives Thursday morn ing at 10 o'clock.
 This meeting. while informal, will be more or less official in character. It is called as result of the recent action of the general assembly in apportioning the convicts among the various counties of the state for work on their public roads. The convicts will still be under direct control of the prison commission which will frame the regulations under which the counties will have to work them.
 It is expected, therefore, that the com mission will outline it's policy at this meeting which will be attended by county commissioners. ordinaries and others who have to deal with the question of roads Some Inure dennite idea will then also
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-11-04

be obtained of the extent of the demand which will be made by the counties for the state convicts. The present indica- tions are that this demand will consid- erably exceed the supply, the result of which will be to bring final termination to the lease system. sThe continuance of the lease is conditioned wholly upon the counties not taking up all the avail- able convicts. So far about 30 counties have been heard from and these have asked for 1000 convicts. or two-ffths of the entire number of which the state will dispose.
 Among the features of the convention will be an address by Chairman Joseph s. Turner of the prison commission upon the features of the new convict law, dealing with what the counties will have to do and the commissions duties in the prem ises; an address by Judge w. F. Eve of Augusta upon practical road work in Richmond county, and an address by ". s. McCurdy of DeKalb county upon proper road equipment A splendid at tendance is expected from all parts of the state.

Chicago, November 3.-At midnight John E.

Culiman, November 3.7-(Special.) )-Indi- cations point to defeat of entire demo- cratic county ticket, also Burnett. The anti-prohibition vote went almost solid ly for republican ticket as a slap at dem- ocrats on prohibition question. There was so much scratching the count is slow and results will not be known until tomorrow. New county amendment probably carried, also road amendment, though nothing definite known at this hour. Cullman pre- cinct cast 19 votes and republicans carry it by substantial majority.
