SHALL LOWER HOUSE
OF CONGRESS BECOME
EVEN MORE UNW|ELDY
New Census Promises to Pre-
cipitate Sectional Contro-
verSy Over Size of House OF
Representatives

CHICAGO, July ia special from
Washington says;
The new census promises to precipitate
= political and sectional controversy OF
vital interest TO the people Based upon
the population IL reports. congress VIII
have to determine whether the house OF
representatives shall be numerically en-
Iarged, which viii make the body more
unwieldly than it now is. or whether
the aggregate OF persons entitled TO a
member OF congress shall be increased.
which viii mean that the house will re-
tain its present membership and pos
sibly may be reduced.
Some states. II the latter plan is adop-
ted win lose representation in congress
through a dimunition OF population dur
Ing the last ten years, while others are
certain OF an increase. due 10 growth
In the number OF inhabitants. The pres
snt ratio OF apportionment is one member
tor every $4,000 Inhabitants The present
house consists OF Sci members.
II congress were TO adopt for the Pres
snt census the ratio OF apportionment
observed in 1900. the house OF represen-
tatives would be increased by S mem
bers. This would bring the total member
sLip I'D to 4so. II is not expected, how
ever. that this ratio will be maintained.
II IL expected that when the apporton-
nent bill is considered the number OF
the members of the house will be nxed
at 1 for every 225.00a. This would mean
that the house would remain practically
~ its present figure
A hard fight undoubtedly will be made
against the adoption OF such a large "a
tio. especially by sparsely settled por-
lions Of the country. The more thickly
settled states probably will raise no
objection TO a proposition Of this kind.
and. indeed. would be inclined TO favor
n. since II would insure relatively
larger representation

HUDSON AND STALLINGS
TO ATTEND FOOD MEET

State Chemist r. E. StaIlings and Com
missioner of Agriculture T. G. Hudson.
representing the feed and dairy depart
ment OF Georgia, have accepted invita-
lions TO attend the annual convention of
the Association OF State and National
Food and Dairy Department officials,
which will meet in New Orleans during
the week of November IS. At this time,
too. the Association Of Feed Control Of
fciaIs will gather in the Crescent City
and at that time indorse a measure,
which Il will be endeavored 10 have every
state in the union adopt, giving a uni
form law governing the sale OF feed
bstuffs.
DR.. Stallings and Commissioner Hudson
are we'll posted on the subject of feed
stuffs through the enforcement Of the
Georgia pure food law which has done so
much to regulate and control the sale OF
feed stufts in this state. These officials
have been asked to assist in drafting the
measure which is to be Endorsed at this
meeting.
Prior to the enactment of the pure food
law in this state the state chemists re-
ports show that Georgia was the dump
ing ground for misbranded and adulterat-
ed feed stuffs. Since the enactment,
though. Georgia has been ridded, largely.
OF these impositions. and cotton seed
meal, a Georgia product. has come fully
into it's own.
Now, more than ever. cotton seed meal
is looked upon as the leading stock feed
I'm the country. Not only is II fed by
dairymen and cattle raisers. but is being
generally fed by work stock owners, sup
planting corn and oats in the daily feed.
When the uniform law is adopted, the
country over, IL is expected this feed will
become even more generally used.

JULY COTTON SQUEEZE"
SENDS PRICE SKYWARD

NEW YORK, July 16.-There was in
creased excitement in the cotton market
today with every indication that the
long-talked of July squeeze was at last
on, owing to an even more urgent de-
mand from July and August shorts.
Prices had a further sensational ad-
vance with July cotton selling at 1913,
Of 90 points above the closing price OF
last night and fully S. per bale above the
price ruling just before the covering
movement started on Wednesday.
As was the case yesterday, no one
seemed to have any July Of consequence
for sale except the bull leaders and
they seemed willing to sell only In
small lots on the advance which has
now carried July back to practically the
highest price of the season. August
shorts had to be almost as much wor-
rled as those of July and the price of
that month advanced to 1912, or SO points
net higher, but the new crop positions
were compare lively quiet and owing to
improved weather and crop accounts,
sold off at BOA points over the closing
figures of yesterday.
Sentiment was exceedingly nervous and
July buyers were numerous enough at
the advance to suggest that there was
still a short interest outstanding.
At the high price of this morning July
cotton sold nearly $15 per bale above the
low level touched on the big break of
last January at which time the bull lead
ers were supposed to have inaugurated
their DreSent CampaiRn.

SPEAKER CANNON IS
OVERCOME BY HEAT

WINFIELD, Kan, July 16.--Speaker
Joseph G. Cannon collapsed here this
afternoon on the chautauqua platform,
after speaking for an hour and three
quarters. Prompt aid prevented him
from fainting, but he was unable to
continue his speech. and speaking with
the greatest difficulty he begged the
audience to excuse him.
SUDDEN SINKING SPELL.
The intense heat had affected him.
and brought on the sudden sinking
spell. Ice water and fresh air part
tally revived him and he haltingly
thanked the audience for listening for
so great length or time. Then he
was led away by his friends and taken
to the home of j. T. Rafferty,. where he
was a guest. His secretary declared
shortly afterward that the attack was
not serious and that the speaker was
planning for an automobile ride later
in the evening.
Despite the protestations Of his friends
the speaker later declared that he was
abundantly able to travel and insisted
upon leaving for Arkansas City in COM
pany with Congressman Phillip Campbell,
who is scheduled to speak here tonight.
Although repeatedly urged to remain in
Winfield until he has entirely recovered.
Mr. Cannon insisted that he was not a
bit sick ana ne 1lnally ndO MS way.
Accompanied by Mr.. Campbell and other
friends he left on the regular train for
Arkansas City.
During the greater part OF his speech
Speaker Cannon was noticeably AFFECT
ed by the heat. His voice became
weak. He backed up against a table
on the platform, and half seated, he
continued to talk. His face assumed
an unnatural white pallor. He reached
back and took the ice from a pitcher
and placed it on his head. His head
dropped to his chest.
II cannot talk longer, he almost
gasped There are many more things
I should like to have said, but 1 cam
not. 1 am overcome with the heat"
FRIENDS RUSH FORWARD.
Friends rushed forward with a chair
and an electric fan was turned on him,
water and ice were procured, and the
platform was cleared of the curious.
The audience remained intensely quiet.
Finally Uncle Joe" arose with FRIEND
on either side, and said:
IT am sorry l cannot continue, but
I have been through three years of
hard work and worry, and this intense
heat has been more than / can stand.
I thank you," and he sank back.
A temperature of los degrees pre-
vailed here today.

SIX MONTHS LIMIT
FOR COLD STORAGE

CHICAGO. July ia special from
Washington says:
Efficient regulation OF the cold storage
business is to be urged during the next
session OF congress.
The first step will be a bill prescribing
that no food products shall be kept in a
cold storage warehouse in any territory
for more than six months. Such a meas
ure will serve as a model for the states
The federal authorities are searching al
so for some constitutional method which
will enable federal supervision Of the
storage business, regarding such action
as necessary to the public health.
The legislation will be supplementary
to the pure food law 1t is possible for
the agricultural department, under the
provision of this law, to condemn any
food in cold storage which is perilous Ia
health, but DR.. Wiley, chief chemist
says the authority of the government is
not sufficient to protect people from the
cold storage evils.

HIS MISSION DE-
PEACE HAS FAILED
RetireS From Gubernatoriai
Campaign Same Day He
Leaves Attorney Generals
Office in Halls Favor

Judge John c. Hart retired from the
governors race Thursday afternoon,
shortly after he mad voluntarily relin-
quished the attorney generals office.
which he has held for the past eight
years.
Judge Hart entered the race for ths
gubernatoriaI nomination, unexpectedly,
on Monday. June q. The day following
he resigned his office as attorney gen.
venience of the governor.

executive committee and author Of the
now famous prorating rules to govern
the August primary. was Immediately
appointed to succeed Judge Hart as at
torney general, and on Thursday he was
sworn in by the governor. Judge Harris
resignation therefore became effective on
July II.
On the Saturday, following his initial
announcement on Monday, Judge Hart
addressed the voters of Greene, his ma
tive county, on his candidacy. He. met
some $50 or 300 voters in the court house
at Greensboro, and in their, presence
elaborated his peaceful mission as a CUB
ernatorial campaign.
The one speech and a brief announce
ment to the people, through the press Of
the state, were Judge Harris only contri-
buttons to the campaign. He selected
no manager to direct his campaign. nor
did he himself devote any time to or
ganization, etc. He devoted himself
largely to winding up the affairs of the
attorney generals ofice, preparatory to
retiring in favor of Mr.. Hall.

OYSTER BAY, n. Y. July 16--Theo-
dore Roosevelt saw no politicians today
and talked no politics. He talked OF
cows and conservation, OF tree chopplng'
the state of affairs in Africa and the
negro in the south.
Colonel Roosevelt did say, however,
that he decided definitely to speak be-
fore the conservation congress In 81.
Paul on September s. He was informed
that there had been reports of friction
because of some OF the men on the
program as speakers were regarded as
ultra-radical in their views. He gave
the impression that the matter had been
adjusted and said that his speech would
be delivered as scheduled.
The colonel was hard at 1t all the az
ternoon chopping down trees which had
been in the Roosevelt family so long
that they had grown old and decrepit.
AS the colonel finished chopping, three
Roosevelt cows ambled placidly down
the shady, winding roadway on their
way to the barn. They were propelled
by ropes hitched to couple Of farm
hands.
do you ever milk the cows?' some
one asked.

The delegation consisted of Giles B.

d. Crum, Of Charleston, s. c.. and Har-
ny S. Cummings, of Baltimore. All are
prominent in the political work Of their
race in the south.
The visitors requested Mr.. Roosevelt
to speak at the colored state fair in
Richmond, Va. in October on his views
of conditions in Africa.
TOOK AWAY CHIPS.
After half hours talk with Mr..
Roosevelt the negroes returned to New
York Each of them had chip as
souvenir, for they had found rhe ex-
president chopping down a tree. he
talked with them about his experience
in Africa and promised to speak at the
fair in Richmond If he had time.
Colonel Roosevelt asked Crum when
he returned to Sycamore Hill, to tell
him about the condition of the negroes
in Liberia and the British possessions.
Dancey told the colonel that whenever
any racial difficulties arose in the
south he fought it out right there among
the people who were directly concerned,
without bringing the dispute before the
whites in the north. Colonel Roose-
welt congratulated his visitors on what
they were doing to improve the condition
Of the southern negroes.
For the next week the ex-president
hopes to keep away from politics and
have a quiet time of IT.

C. {. MADDOX, OF ROME,
TO SUCCEED J. R. SMITH
Son of Former Seventh Dis
trict Congressman viii Man.
age Browns Campaign

1t was announced, unofficially, at the
Brown campaign headquarters yesterday
afternoon that G. Z. Maddox, of Rome
has been chosen to succeed J. K. smith,
who will sever his connection with the
governors campaign on July I'D, in &C
cordance with his original plans. Mr..
Maddox was at the Brown quarters on
yesterday, and it is likely that he will
remain in Atlanta, so that he may master
the details of the governors race be-
fore Mr. Smiths departure, and be ready
to take up the work without inconven-
fence or delay.
Mr.. Maddox is a son Of Judge John w.
Maddox, of Rome, who served as con-
gresham from the Seventh district for
a number of years, and who, later, was
mayor of Rome. He is natural poll
tician, with no inconsiderable experience,
and the governors friends are confident
they have made a wise choice in his
selection.
MR.. SMITHS DEPARTURE.
Concerning his departure, Mr.. Smith
stated yesterday afternoon that he had
found It impossible to remain in Allan
ia after July sd, next Saturday. Bus
mess matters will take him to New York,
and, he says, ii will be impossible for
him to get back home in less than Is
days Inasmuch as his enforced absence
will occur at a critical stage of the cam
paign, it was deemed wise to call in
another manager.
At the headquarters yesterday after
noon there were many callers, and it
was declared that the situation was i'm
proving steadily, though there was no
admission that Governor Brown had ever
been in serious danger of defeat.
Ex-Governor Terrell was a visitor dur
ing the afternoon.
1t was stated, good naturally. at head
quarters, that during the day farmer
had called to re-affirm his support II
the governor. The farmer, II was said,
commented upon the source of the oppo-
sition to the governor and remarked
significantly, that LIT had rained every
day since Hol1e Smith announced for gov
ernor,' and the farmers had been con-
siderably put out.
QUARTERS ENLARGED.
The Brown quarters have been enlarg-
ed by the addition of another room,
which is located across the hall from
the suite composed by Nos. LOG. los and
10. This room will be used for execu-
tive conferences, personal letter writing,
etc.
1t was announced that on Monday a
force of clerks would be put to work. d.
recting envelopes, writing letters, send
ing out literature and attending to de-
tails incident to club organization. Much
of the literature has already been print
ed, it was stated, and there would be
plenty of work Monday to keep large
clerical force busy until the end of the
campaign.
Placards, bearing a picture Of Cover
nor Brown, have been printed, and many
of these will edistributed throughout
the state. to be placed in windows, etc.
Large signs have been suspended from
the windows of the rooms, proclaiming
them as the Headquarters Of Governor
Joseph NJ Brown" and welcoming every
body.
