New York; Aug. 29.-Southern bulls
appeared to have things their own
way today when the parties who had
sold them large quantities of cotton

effected by the August squeeze. Cot

Clark, OF Eastabutch1e, was ufeU -
a charge of driving horse at an un-
necessary rate of speed, which result
ed in the animal dropping to the
ground at the end of the journey. The
horse had been driven from Easta-
putchie to Hattiesburg in less than As
minutes, it is said.
Clark pleaded guilty to the charge
and begged the mercy of the court,
stating that he was intoxicated and
did not realize that he was driving at
an unusually rapid gait. Judge Davis
imposed a fine Of $40 and costs, and
informed the defendant that unless he
adjusted the matter satisfactorily
with the owner of the animal, he
would still be liable to prosecution in
the county court.
Clark was arrested at the instance
of DR.. F. W. Queen, president of the
local Humane Society, and DR.. Hart
hill, who saw the animal shortly after
it reached Hattiesburg Saturday
night. Clark was held in Jail until
this morning.

DOING GOOD WORK
1872 Cases of Cruelty to Animals Have
Been Reported This Year, and All
But Seven Have Been Settled Salts
factoriIy.

That the Hattiesburg Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
if performing good work without re-
sorting to the courts, is evidenced by
the fact that during the present year
1872 cases have been reported to the
society, all of which, with the excep-
tion of seven, have been settled amica-
bly, and without prosecutions.
In order to encourage officers OF
the law to devote more attention to
this phase of their duties, the local
society has decided to award a gold
medal as a prize to the officer who
does the most effective work in this
line between now and May 1, 1911.
All officers of the law, municipal,
county and state, have been invited
to compete for the prize. The medal.
it is said, will be a handsome and ex-
pensive one, and a prize well worth

"If Tacoma would invest ST.
100000 in municipal docks IT
would save her $10,O00.000 in
freight charges in year." said
Mr.. Call.
He urged immediate action.

Ownership of the terminals is the

The remarks of Mr.. Call SEEM
ed to hit the Tacomans hard. The
movement for municipal docks Is
meeting with great favor on the
part of people here, and steps
will probably be taken in the near
future to organize the plan of pro-
lcedure.
The Ashton syndicate is said to
be willing to make concessions to
the city for great docks on the
tideflats in a replat of that sec
ton, and, in addition to this,
there are many who demand the

Icrop and the money outlook"
tits a bit early to form an ac-
curate opinion regarding the
crops. Owing to the high prices
that have been obtained by farm
ers for several seasons past there
has been a great extension in
acreage for all crops. Should we
get fairly normal weather condi-
lions the crops should turn out
well; under these conditions, with
continuance of high prices, the
country will benefit enormously in
wealth, which will be used in pro-
longing the boom.
with regard to money, it has
a hardening tendency at the pres
ent time in sympathy with a SINH
lar tendency in Europe.
This condition will be over
come this spring, and we should
expect easy money to rule until
the end of the year."
What effects have the politi-
cal uncertainty at Washington,
the conservation discussion, the
exposure of political graft in vari-
Gus parts of the country and the
revealed misdoings of trusts on
business?"
I'VE are cleaning up these
sores and are getting ready to
start out new and fresh. Their
effects are purely temporary.
Business is not dependent upon
purely local conditions. The big
swings in business are world
wide in extent. We never find
business in a healthy condition in
an isolated country. But. when
ever business has been booming
In any specific country-say, for
instance, the United States-we
will find that similar conditions
exist in all the leading countries
ASSOCIATED with the United States
in international trade.
Eat the present moment, BUSH
ness in the far orient is rapidly re-
viving, and the prospects are that
there will be greater boom dur
ing the next two or three years
than the orient has ever before
witnessed. India has had a sue
cession of good harvests. China
is undertaking the construction of
very important public works
throughout the empire. Japan is
developing Formosa, Manchuria
and Korea on large scale. The
rubber boom in England during
the past six months has led to the
formation of large number of
new corporations to grow rubber
in the East Indies. This, in turn,
has led to boom in land values
in the Indies, and has greatly in
creased the business.
''The result of these movements
will be reflected in a very great
demand for western goods. The
United States will share with Eu-
rope in this increase in trade and
the effects of this great buying
will override any depressing eff
fects of local politics on trade in
the United States"

What is the most marked sign
of prosperity you see now

moves in cycles. There is reg.
ular period of progress between q
panic and a boom. Business in
variably follows the same course
After period of depression the
demand for steel and iron prod

in the past few months has been
very active, and may exceed the
records of 1907.

business men generally watch the
movement in copper. Throughout

accumulation of copper. During
the present year stocks have been
worked out. And at present they

The movement started by the
Times for municipal docks is
taking firm grip on the people
of Tacoma.
At the Commercial club last
night Joseph Call, president of
the Municipal Terminal league of
Los Angeles, enthused the $50
business and professional men
present and showed Enthusiastically
the absolute necessity for this city
securing municipal docks of ade-
quate proportion If it expects to
keep in the race with other coast
cities in the future development
of business. Mr.. Call urged the
city to act at once.
"lf you delay you will keep on
at the mercy of the carriers" said
he. Competition will avail you
nothing. There has been no COM
petition among railroads, SO far
as rates are concerned, for 20
years.
AS an illustration of the man
ner in which the railways who
have control of the terminal ia
cilities now handle things Mr..
Call said that Puget Sound coal
can be bought in quantities here
at So a ton. The water charge
for shipping would not be more
than 50 ton. But Los Angeles
pays $12 for much inferior
grade of coal than the Puget
Sound kind, simply because the

In Denver the authorities think
it just as much a swindle to put

thorities, controlling the theater,
can and do stop any show they

The result is that when the
