JACKSON, Nov. 6.-Jackson has
two more big attractions headed this
way that will bring in enormous
crowds, almost comparing in size with
any assembly gathered here during the
State Fair period.
The Ringing Bros circus is booked
for the 10th of November, and on No

University of Mississippi and the Mis-

annual game at the Fair grounds.
The latter event is awakening liy ely
interest throughout the state, and a
crowd of from 5000 to 10000 specta-
tors is expected. The opinion general
ly prevails among football experts that
the game will be exceedingly close. Both
teams have shown I'M we'll this year,
and, while neither has notable vic
tories to its credit, the games in
which they have been engaged indl-
cate that they are very colsely match

Last year the University team was

weight. This year the average weight
of the eleven is much heavier, conf
pairing very favorably with that of

.By Associated Press.

LONDON, November 6.-Bernhard
Dernberg, the German secretary of
state for the colonies, who is return
ing from a trip to the Southern States
of America, where he made a study
of raw cotton growing, said in an
interview that his experience had con-
vinced him that cotton-growing was
essentially a black mans job.
He was greatly impressed with
Booker T. Washington and the Tuske-
gee students, but did not want an edu
Gated proletariat in the German colo
MES. He considered that the result
of the Metayer system of cotton cult
vatiom would be to produce cotton at
about SO per cent more than neces-
sary.
In the opinion of the secretary, an
ideal system would be one in which
the white man would act as director
of the blacks labor, subjecting his
workers to discipline, so they would
be relied upon to work regularly. He
approved of the disfranchisement of
the negro, because, he urged, it would
make mischief to pretend that the
black man was the equal of the white.
