CULLOM SAYS SOUTH
AFRAID NEGRO RULE.
Otherwise Senator Thinks
Politics Would Change.

Washington, Nov 15.-United States
Senator Shelby M. Cullom believes
that were it not for the race question
the South would become a Republic
an stronghold because of the great ad-
vantage a protective policy gives that
section of the country. Despite his
party zeal, however, the senator does
not believe in DISTINGUISHING the ne
gro, and insists that he shall be treat
ed on an equality of civil rights and
of citizenship.
In an interview published here
it was made to appear that Mr. Gull
lom favored DISTINGUISHING the color
ed man in the South, but that he
should not be deprived of his vote in
the North. Later the senator explain
ed that his remarks had been misinter-
preted, and that by no means would
he suggest any sectional distinction
He would not curtail the rights CT
the negro in the South, and therefore
he could offer no suggestion as to how
to bring those States into the Repub-
lican column, although he believes
that the real attitude of the white pe0-
pie there is strongly in favor of the
principle of protection; and that they
are prevented from supporting it only
by fear of negro domination.

WHY SALVES FAIL
TO CURE ECZEEA.
They Clog the POres-Only a Liquid
Can Reach the Inner Skin.

Since the old-fashioned theory OF
curing eczema through the blood has
been given up by scientists, many
different salves have been tried for
skin diseases. But it has been found
that these salves only clog the pores
and can not penetrate to the inner
skin below the epidermis where the
eczema germs are lodged.
Thistle quality of penetrating
probably explains the tremendous
success of the only standard liquid
eczema cure, oil of wintergreen as
compounded in D. d. d. Prescription.
After ten years of cure after cure, the
worlds leading skin specialists have
accepted this as the true eczema cure
We ourselves do not hesitate to
recommend D. D. D. Prescription at
$100 a bottle, but for the benefit Of
those who have never tried the pre-
scription, we arranged with the D. D..
D. Laboratories of Chicago for a spe-
cial large trial bottle at rs cents on
a special offer now. This first bottle
ought to convince every sufferer, and,
at any rate, it will surely take away
the itch at once. Dodson's Pharmacy.

COMBINE IN COPPER is
FORMED BY TRUST
Will Control the Output of
the World.

New York, Nov. 15.-The formation
of a giant copper combine to force
down the cost of producing the metal
and boost up the price of the finished
product, will be begun within the
next few days. The return of Daniel
Guggenheim from Europe has set the
machinery in motion.
The combination of the Guggenheim
interests and the Amalgamated-C Cole
Ryan properties would give the Gug-
genheims practically the control of the
worlds copper supply, as they are in
position to dictate terms to the
Amalgamated interests.
The massing of the interests would
result in s344.00O.OO0 Copper Trust
and give the combination control of
between seven and eight hundred mil
lion pounds of copper annually.
| The Guggenheims are in a position
to direct the combine more or less, as
the mining on their properties is con-
fined to porphyry copper, which can
be scooped from the hillsides in the
rough at a cost of Z 1-2 to cents q
pound.
The Amalgamated interests, on the
other hand, have to conduct more cost
ly mining, with the result that they
cannot produce copper for less than
II cents a pound.
Copper is now selling at Is cents on
the market, so it is readily seen that
the Guggenheims have the whip hand,
as the object of the combine primarily
is to lessen the cost of production.
Nobody could be found who had
| anything to say about the exact plan
of campaign, and most of those con-
l cerned were of the opinion that il
would be some time before all ar
| rangements could be completed and
the trust put in active operation.
The combine would bring about
great economy in production, as the
Guggenheims hope to be able to pro.
duce the metal at as low a figure as
l 8 cents. 1t is easy to see, if these
figures can be carried out in practice
the enormous profits the combine
would reap.

SHIRTS FOR SOLDIER BOYS
GIVEN BY THE STATE

Two wooden shirts each for every
soldier boy in Georgia is the promise
of Adjt Gen. A. ]. Scott, who states
that the garments will be issued at
once to supply them with warmth
during winter drills.
1t will require total of 1900 of
these wooden shirts to supply the en-
listed men in the Georgia National
Guard.
This is the first time that shirts have
ever been supplied the troops, that
being a garment which the boys have
been called on to furnish themselves.
They are wooden shirts and will be
worn with uniform.
They are furnished to the state by
the United States government as a
part of the regular appropriation 10
the militia, and will be shipped out
the first of this week.

ATLANTA DAME FINDS FOR

EIGHTEEN BALES OF COTTON
GATHERED FROM TEN ACRES
Clifton Gazette.)

Mr.. W. E. Baker rises with the evil
dence that he is some class as a cot
ton grower himself, and that his farm
southwest of the city is good cotton
land.
From ten acres this year he has al
ready gathered eighteen bales of cot
ton and is sure of getting two more,
The cotton from which this phe-
nomenal crop was made was planted
the 14th of May, and was the third
planting of that field this spring.
Mr.. Baker attributes the big crop
to the kind of seed used, the fertilizer
and the method of applying.
Mr.. Baker says with the same meth.
cd he has used this year, he is con-
fident he can soon make four bales IF
cotton to the acre.
