REGARDING MATTER
 OF SHIPPING COTTON Selma Man Returns From Con-
 ference in Atlanta TO OBSERVE LABOR DAY Woodmen of the World VIII Celebrate at SeIma-Rev. Jordan of Gadsden Preaches-Young Man Is Fatally Injured
TO OBSERVE LABOR DAY

Selma, September 4.-(Special)-J. w. Hunter, division freight agent of the Southern railway, has returned from At lanta where he went a few days ago to confer with higher officials regarding the matter of shipping cotton to, from and through Selma.
 Considerable trouble has been experi- enced by cotton shippers in Selma regard ing the new ruling of the interstate com merce commission, which forbids the shipper substituting other cotton than that originally received over the rail- way lines. A few days ago the Selma Cotton exchange held a meeting and pro- tested against this ruling with the result that MT. Hunter went to Aatlanta to confer with officials of the Southern rail- way regarding this ruling.
 Through the efforts of MT. Hunter. who worked in connection with com mittee from the Selma Cotton exchange, the Southern railway has agreed to allow the shippers to continue the substituting plan when it suited their convenience. This, of course, will apply to only such cotton as may be handled by the South ern railway from various points sur rounding this market, others roads regu. lating their rates differently. They charge different rates from different points. The ruling of the interstate conn merce commission will remain In force on the other railroads entering Selma.
 The cotton men of the city are well pleased with the work which has been
 
 bers of the committee, but they state that 1t has not yet gone far enough Efforts will be made to eliminate all ob- staeles In handling and shipping cotton and everything that can be done will be speedily accomplished to make Selma one of the best cotton markets in the state.

Sherman Says Government Has Pro-
vided Well for the Comfort of the
Survivors Of the Great Conflict of
Sixty-One to Sixty-Five.

Syracuse, y. Y, June 2l.-The ora
tor of the day at the unveiling here
today of the monument to the soldiers
of the civil war was Vice President
James Sherman.
As he looked upon the fresh sanite
and newly nodded bronze of the i'm
pressive monument just unveiled the
vice president pronounced it to be a
fitting recognition of the passionate
patriotism which held together the
states of the union.
This is but one form of testimonial
to the Boys in Blue said the vice
president, 'and it's value and meaning
are multiplied and intensified because
there is not lacking othJc forms of
expression of the peoples gratitude
to the nations preservers.'
For the veterans still living, he
pointed out that nearly half hun
dred soldiers homes offered care and
comfort to nearly forty thousand
and infirm who have suffered from
the wounds and hardships of war. A
generous government with lavish
hand had made provision, he said, to
aid the living and help or succor the
dear survivors of the hero dead by
pensions.
Neither the monuments We dedi-
cate said he. nor the soldier homes
and pensions the nation provides is a
charity. All the acknowledgements Of
just debts, the payment of sacred obli-
cations. They are decorations, badges
OF heroism, more nobly earned than
the ribbon of the French legion OIL
Honor, or the garter of British Knight
hood.
The people of today have no fear
of too generous treatment to the sol
diers of the sixties. Their just mer-
it's are to be measured by the gran
deur of the nation which they pre-
served, by what it was, by what it is,

Reno, Nevada. June 22.-TeX Rick
ard positively asserts today that there
is no possibility of Promoter Sid Hes
ter staging the Langford-Ketchel fight
in the Jefries-Johnson arena here on
the morning of July 4th, or any time
prior to the big mill.
The best we can do for Hester, says
Rickard, is to permit him to hold his
contest on the day after the heavy
weight match.
Hester. who first jumped into prom
inence when he pulled off the Nelson
Wolgast fight, declares there is little
chance of his securing any other arena
and that if Rickard does not relcnt
by night, he will return to San Fran
cisco.
Jeffries and his trainers are expect
ed here this evening, while Johnson
and his following are expected tomor-
row. All of the fighting fraternity are
pleased that the location for the fight
has been determined upon where there
will be no probability of any effort %
prevent it.
The arena will be located in East
Reno on the same site as that of the
Hart-Root fight of July 4, 1906.
