ALAbAMA'S COTTON
 CROP N!OT DAMAGED
Advertiser Report Shows Deterioration Is Chiefly
 From Rains

Montgomery, August 20.-Alabama cot ton crop has not been damaged as much as some of the alarmists and pessimists have predicted. Reports to the Adver- tiser from practically every county in the state indicate that the injury from the caterpillar, cotton worm and other pests is inconsequential. That there has been some deterioration is true-due to too much rain, which has caused the weed to take on abnormal growth at the ex- pense of fruiting. This deterioration is from the conditions of some weeks ago. when every indication pointed to the largest and most perfect crop ever grown in Alabama. With regard to the nor mal, the average crop of recent years, reports show that the present crop even now is better than the average, and with dry weather and no unusual hot waves tie frnit will develop much more rapidly, and with better results than now seems the case
 Picking has begun only In the southern- most tier of counties, and is not general there. Some report a weak fibre, but this is limited to a few spots where there has been too much rain.
 It will be six weeks or longer before the crop in Alabama is made, and until that period is reached the exact status of the yield cannot be told.
 There seems to be a unanimous chorus that Alabama will make a bumper corn crop. It is conceded that the season gen. orally has been the best in years, the acreage larger, the cultivation better and the yield will be enormous.

CANADIANS BEGIN
 BITTER CAMPAIGN
With Reciprocity the Issue Over 100 Conventions
 Are Held

Toronto, Ont, August 20.-The election campaign has gained full headway throughout Ontario, the great industcial province of Canada, by the visit of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the premier, and R. l.. Borden, the opposition leader. On all sides it is now recognized that reciprocity is the issue Even MT. Borden has de- clined to make his campaign an attack on the record of the last 15 years of gov ernment. Instead of ''muck-raking' ne will win or lose on the reciprocity issue alone.
 Although the election has been sprung suddenly. more than 100 conventions have been held during the past week and rival candidates named in nearly every con stituency.
 Hon. William Patterson, minister of customs, one of the commissioners wno negotiated the reciprocity agreement at Aashingt6n has been steql.nated in Brsnt. Although he has held the seat iO years. a special effort will be made by the conservatives to defeat him. J. IT. Fisher, member of the Ontario legislature has resigned his seat and will run against the minister of customs. He is ac- knowledged to be a strong man and the fight will be bitter
 The annexation speeches in the Amer ican congress are being made the most of by the conservative party and hundreds Of thousands of pamphlets containing ex- tracts therefrom have been distributed iri sections of the province settled by united empire loyalists and recent corners from England.
 The flag Is being waved everywhere as a stimulus to loyalst sentiment The lib- eral speakers declare the talk of annex alton is simply beneath the attention f serious people and maintain 1t will have no effect in influencing votes

CONTINENTAL TRIP OF TAFT C0MPL LIFE Almost Equals Famous
 Jaunt of 1909 WILL BE GONE 6 WEEKS President to Break Ground for San Francisco Exposition and Make
 Scores of Addresses-Trip
 Is Important One
WILL BE GONE 6 WEEKS

Washington, August 20.-Plans for President Taft's coming trip through the west and to the Pacific coast prac- tically were completed today The Journey will be almost as extensive as that taken by the President on his fa- nous swing around the circle" in 1909. when he travelled more than 1S.0Oo miles and visited B states. He will break ground for the Panama canal eNpo~itlon rat San frafca 60. make segS- eral score of addresses and attempt to scale the 1l,000 feet of Mount Rainiers precipitous top.
 According to the present arrange ment the President will be gone six will make close to 200 speeches from platforms, from the rear-end of his pri- vate car and other places on the regu- lar schedule
 Republican leaders look upon the trip as the most important, politically, the President has mapped out since he en- tered the White House. He will go through all the states In the west in which is recognized the domination oI the progressive Iepublicdhs Nuo ai O counted on to oppose his re-nomina- ton next year.
 Until the question of the adjourn ment of Congress was out of the way the President was undecided as to whether he should be gone three weeks or six. With adjournment practically assured for this week the President feels he can get three weeks rest at Beverly and be In trim to stand the hard grind of 40 days in the cars.
 The President probably w.lI leave Beverly September IT. returning east about November 1. He will go west through Iowa, Kansas. Nebraska, Colo rado and Nevada to the coast Most of the big cities en route, including Des Moines, Kansas City, Omaha, Den yer and Salt Lake City vii be visited. but the plans for the trip contemplate stops at scores of smaller places as well. From California the President will go north to Portland and Seattle Three days are to be spent In Wash ington state and the route eastward will allow him to stop in Idaho, Mon tana, the Dakotas and Minnesota.
 While no spell binders" are to be taken along, 1t is probable members of the cabinet or congressman will be- come travelling companions of the President at various points en, route. Topics for the PreSldent's addresses will not be hard to find, the party leaders say.

Niagara Falls, Ont, August 2O-As Admiral Togo motored over the uppe, steel arch bridge today gazing intentIy at the misty cataract below, he con cluded his official tour of the United States.

PROPOSE NEW PLAN
 .0F ARMY STATIONS

Washington, August 2o.-The concentra- ton of the army at large stations strategically situated for military pur- poses, and the abandonment of the small posts, is under consideration by the war department.
 The idea of the scheme, which requires the sanction of Congress, is to construct in the vicinity of cities or large towns compact barracks, each to hold an entire regiment. Most of the commissioned of- fcers, according to the plans, will find accommodat within the city, obviating the necessity of building extensive of fcers' quarters on the reservation.
 It is proposed to locate the greater part os the infantry in the northern states and the cavalry and field artillery in the south where forage Is cheap and where horses nay be kept out practically the entire year.
