 Today was the time for most of the farmers of the county to sell their cotton and the town has been throng- ed with them all day and the trading has been brisk.It is hoped today will be the starter for splendid season among the farmers and merchants The high price that cotton has reached has great deal to do with the present good outlook and the crop in this county has not turned out as badly as once feared. Almost two-th thirds of a crop will be made, the crops being better in the southern part of the county than in the northern, almost invariably.

tric lights before the January term of the City Court of Selma.
 The grand jury also investigated several complaints which had been made about certain places in the pub lie roads of the county and recom-
 mended to the board of revenue that these places be fixed as soon as con- venient. The report recommended that Joe Saffold, Will Boiling, John Collins | and Jim Cole, prisoners in the county | jail be dismissed. and they had found
 no indictments against them. They also recommended that Frank Eng fish, Jim Hoskins, Steve Bowers and Dave Fulford, who are also prisoners, be held until the next grand jury as they were unable to get witnesses to appear before them and give evidence in these cases.
 Tn concluding the report states that although the crimes of murder and assault with intent to murder con- tinue that such cases were not as nu- merous now as they were before the prohibition laws went into effect. The report also states although there are violations of the prohibition laws that this law is as well observed and en- forced as any other law upon the stat ute books and that the violation of the same is largely with the negro popu- latiOn.

 STEAMER SAILS WITH BIG Cotton Shipped Is Worth
 $45,000. BOAT MAKES QUICK TRIP Navigation Company Eager to Give Satisfactory Service. Another Transport Is At the Wharf Today To rake More Staple
 Down River To the
 Gulf City.

The river packet ''City of Mobile of the Birmingham and Gulf Naviga- tion Company left Montgomery last night for Mobile with cargo Of 6oo bales of cotton valued at $4s.eoo. fhe cotton was shipped by Elmore' ouii- Han and Company and is consigned to Liverpool through the Guif City. ihis is the second cotton shipment this season down the Alabama river Tor export
 The steamer arrived at the local riv- CT front about II o'clock yesterday morning with a cargo of miscellaneous merchandise from the Gulf City and way landings consigned to local mer- chants. A large barge was lowed up the river by the packet which was also loaded with freight.
 The cargo consigned to Montgomery merchants consisted of 150 barrels or sugar, seventy-five barrels of oil, 2bO sacks of coffee and other freight. All this came direct from Mobile. At Sell ma and other way landings, ninety two bales of cotton and 600 sacks of cotton were taken aboard, billed. like- wise. to local merchants.
 The packet was in charge of Cap tain T. J. Morrows and Clerk c. K. Hybart. The boat left Mobile Tues day evening and made fast trip con- sidering the amount of freight aboard and the low stage of the river.
 Immediately upon landing at the foot of Commerce street. yesterday morning. the task of unloading the cargo commenced. A gang of thirty negroes was employed all day, and the river front presented a busy appear ance. The loading of the cotton was begun shortly after noon and by o'clock the packet was ready for her return trip. The boat master thought 1t unadvisable to carry mere than $50 bales of cotton besides tho other car go owing to the low water stage.
 Shortly after o'clock the boat lift ed her anchors from tho muddy oozes of the river bottom and towing the barge started on the return trip to Mobile.
 Another packet, the "John Quill" of the same line, Is due in Montgom- cry tonight from Mobile with another shipment of goods and freight for To- cal merchants. The boat will take cotton cargo down the river for ex- port.
 All the local merchants are tegin- ming to realize more than ever what the water route means to them in the saving of freight billa. Many of them are having freight shippef to Mobile by rail and up the river by boat. The cotton merchants in this city, too, are taking advantage of the cheap river

xvoy,,,nr For New Members.

The working members of the com mercial and Industrial Association are laboring hard among the business men of the city to get many new members for the association and 1t is expected that at the next meeting nearly hun dred applications for membership will be turned in.
 The association is slowly dying for want of support from the business men and unless a number of new members are secured 1t will soon go by default. During the years the as- sociation has been in existence it has done much good for Selma and every business concern and the majority of the residents have derived consider able benefit from its work.
