IS CENTS FOR COTTON
AND STILL IT RISES
Market at Highest Point of
Season.
Thirteen centsi

| Thirteen cents
That was the high figure touched
yesterday in the cotton contract mar
ket, and while spot cotton was not
| greatly affected thereby this latest up
ward movement indicates the great
strength of the staple and insures
much higher prices for spots later in
! the year.
Fifteen cents,
Will it go to that price? Just as
certain as it went to thirteen yester-
day and the time will not be long.
Americus cotton men believe in
much higher values later on.
Savannah factors believe in small
crop and higher prices Mr. E. A.
Cults, well known to the cotton trade
here, as in that city, says of the
Sully estimate:
Il believe the cotton crop will not
be more than 11,5OO,OOO bales this
year | have heard recently from
many of my representatives through
out the cotton belt and the indica-
tiOns are that the above figures are
about as close to a correct estimate
as 1 can get"
The late rains have not damaged
the crop and these figures should rep
resent a pretty accurate statement of
things. Furthermore, II 100000 bales
is a short crop when compared with
AZ 900 900 bales.
The cotton crop will likely range
about the ten and a half million mark,
though the government report, as ia"
as it is completed, places the crop as
low as 10,O0O,000.
Daniel j. Sully, noted as a bull on
the New York Cotton Exchange, when
he recently estimated the crop at H.
900, 900 bales, also predicted that the
price of cotton will go to 15 or IS
cents within the next few weeks. In
the opinion of Mr.. Sully the crop may
come under 100000 bales, if any
thing.
With the demand of the spinning
world pretty definitely fixed at 49,
100000 bales, the demand is sure to
exceed the supply, thereby forcing the
price upward.
The statistics upon which Sully
bases his II, 100000 bale estimate were
obtained from reports of % statisti-
clans throughout the cotton belt Mr..
Sully has just completed tour of
the cotton belt. He says conditions
are different from what he has ever
seen them before.
The crop in the Americus territory
will be bit short, but high prices will
offset the difference.

HUGUENIN TIMBER LAND
is REPORTED SOLD
Lumber Concern Said to
Have Paid $50 an Acre.

The timber on the Huguenin plan
tation, on the Seaboard, a few miles
east of Americus, is reported to have
been sold
This tract is said to be the finest
unbroken body of timber in Georgia
1t lies in one compact mass, intersect-
ed by the railway, and running down
to the Flint river.
The timber is a beautiful sight and
has been for years admired by all
travellers passing through it on the
railway. There is a wealth of fine
lumber in it, and after the large trees
are cut off the smaller growth will
rapidly develop and in a few years
give a second cutting.
1t is understood that the James
Manufacturing Co. of Triton has Sc
cured the timber lands of this fa-
nous old plantation, paying, it is
said, $50 an acre for $500 acres, or
$4,000 in all.
~ odW ulIll ID DelIS put Ill anu II is
reported that numbering will begin at
once.
Much surprise is expressed that az
rangements have not been made for
turpentining the timber. The turpen-
tine privilege on q body of timber ly-
ing so convenient for shipment as this
does would be worth many thousands
of dollarsl > The lumber would be
equally as valuable after turpentin-
ing as before. 1t is considered as
probable that the reports that the
timber is not to be turpentined may
be an error.
The removal of this body of timber
will wipe out the last large available
area of timber in Sumter county, it
is said. This is the last survivor of
the original forest that once covered
this section.

ONLY 25 IN CONNER
CIAL DEPARTMENT
Machinery All Working
Smoothly Yesterday.

The work of organization of the
public school classes for the year was
completed yesterday, the children
went at their work with the zest that
always marks them at the opening
of a term, and the full machinery of
the school system was WORKING
smoothly before the day closed
Teachers and pupils fitted into their
accustomed places as though there
had been no three months vacation to
disturb the routine of school life
Some few latecomers were added to
the lists, and there are others still
to come into the fold, but the organ
ization as now perfected is practi-
cally as it will be until the next va
cation period duly rolls around.
In the commercial department prop
er there are about twenty-five pupils
enrolled This is not as great a num-
Der as was anticipated. This depart
ment is expected to draw more chill
dren to it with each year until it be-
comes, as in other cities, one of the
most important branches of the school
system.
Teachers and children were alike
delighted with the renovated school
building. Everything was so much
fresher and sweeter and better ap-
pearing than when they deserted the
building in June that eXclamations Of
qualifications were not unusual
1t is probable that the new high
school building will be completed be-
fore the school year ends and that
the high school classes will then he
transferred to the new school build
ing and complete their years work
there That is the present outlook.

DUBLIN SHY ON PREACHERS:
FOUR PUIPITS VACANT
Unusual State of Affairs in That Good
Town.

Dublin, Ga, Sept 21.-Rev. R. E.
Stephens has resigned the pastorate of
the Christian church and gone to Lex
ington, KY, to accept a charge. His
resignation makes the pulpit of four
churches vacant
For a town the size of Dublin, which
has approximately 1000 people, to
have four vacant pulpits is something
very unusual.
The First Baptist church will not
call a pastor until after the meeting
of the Georgia State Baptist conven-
ton. Rev. Allen Fort will return to
Dublin the middle of October and act
as pastor from then until the close OF
the convention.
The pulpit of Christ church has
been vacant for year. This is a
small congregation.

Texas, having been born in 1858. ?:f
was a preacher in Texas for period
of about twenty-three years, until
1902. He was then elected missionary
secretary, serving four years and in
1906 was elected bishop in the Geor-
gia conference. He took the place OF
Bishop Galloway, who was sick at
the time. He was not in good health
when he sailed for the Orient, but his
physicians thought the sea trip would
be beneficial. His son went with him
because the family were not willing to
risk him making the trip alone on ac-
count Of the condition of his health.
