CONTRACT LAW IS
UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Judge SpGGF Holds State La
Dor Law Illegal

Macon, Ga, May 31.-The state la
Dor contract law, which was adopted
by the Georgia legislature in 1898, and
by virtue of which thousands of ne
gro and white farm hands are now held
under contracts of varying terms on
the plantations of the state, was de-
clared unconstitutional null and
void,' in the United States District
court here by Judge Emory Speer this
morning.
This means that ultimately the
point will go to the Supreme court of
the United States for consideration,
and as that body has already made a
famous decision, namely in the Bailey
case of Alabama, in which the same
subject matter is ruled upon, it is ex-
pected by local attorneys who are
conversant with the statute that in
the end the Georgia law will be de-
clared unconstitutional
In making his ruling, Judge Speer
stated that he sought to avoid pass
ing upon the constitutionality of the
law, as he thought the courts should
think long and wisely. before in
terfering with legislation. However
the point had been so raised that
he was bound to pass upon it. He
held that the state labor contract law
was in conflict with the 18th amend
ment.
1t is a singular coincidence that AT
torney Thomas S. Fielder, who was
leading counsel in the peonage case IN
the United States court, which devel-
cped the attack up the constitution
ality of the state labor contract law
Collaborated in its framing and was
in the legislature to secure its pas
sage. His connection with the passage
of the law was referred to by Judge
Speer.

MERCHANT HAD A
NARROW EXERCISES

Forsyth, Ga, May 31-Mr T. F
Jaugstetter, prominent merchant of
this city, had very narrow escape
from being bitten by huge mocca-
sin snake Saturday afternoon. Mr.
Jaugstetter at the time was engaged
in tearing down an old building in the
rear of his store, and while tearing
away the floor of the building came
very near stepping on the snake
which was beneath the structure and
in a coil, ready to strike. With great
presence of mind, Mr.. Jaugstetter
jumped backwards and killed the rep
tile with a large stone. The snake
was the largest one of the moccasin
species ever seen in this section.

 Market Letter for the Past Week
Mysterious Cattle Movement

A week or ten days ago 2 mys- terious movement of cattle began in the Burro mountains, large numbers of them punching to- gether and starting in a south westerly direction. A cowboy re- ported he crossed a big trail that appeared to him must have been made by the passing of 5000 head. They were headed southwest and when they reached the right of way fence along the A. & N. NJ. railroad, they broke through it and kept on moving. Cattlemen discovering the movement hustled out their cowboys and the latter got busy checking the progress of the cattle and turning them back to their range. Dave Tulloch con- firmed the story of the movement but could give no explanation. Silver City Independent.

FROM COTTON FIELD TO KITCHEN.

Cottolene comes from the oil of the nutritious cotton seed. Without touch of human hands, it flows through the fac tory from one process to another, and finally into pails sealed air-tight by special machines, and protecting the Cottolene also from dust and odors.
 Compare this with most other cooking fats--made from hog fat, which is al- ways more or less indigestible, and in- ferior in quality--and marketed in tubs or loose-covered pails.
 From cotton field to kitchen, Cotto- lene is made with the single aim of puri- ty healthfulness, cleanliness. Of what other cooking fats can this truthfully be said?

Mans Mortal Plan

The wise man said, one sum mer day: Now eggs are cheap, for all hens lay, and so I'll buy million kegs of these absurdly low priced eggs, and store them until the bliZzards come, when henfruit works are out of plumb, and then I'll bring them from my store, and clear ton of wealth or more. :" And so he leased building tall, and filled it up, from wall to wall, with bodies of refreshing eggs, in crates, in boxes and in kegs. And then he waited for the time of shrieking gales and snow and rime, and planned a trip to Rome and Cork, with sundry nights of in New York. The winter came along full soon; but twas run ming mate for June; the whizzing tempest didn't whiz, the raging blizzard failed to bliz; the hens were sure the month was May, and each laid seven eggs a day. The man of eggs soon went in- sane; which shows that human plans are vain. It also seems good evidence that hens have mighty little sense. Walt Mason.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER
Cny J. \. RIekart. oorrespondenD

3. "Wednesday was the low spot in the cattle market last week, scarcity of offerings after that al- lowing Salesmen to recoup most of the loss of that day, the week closing not much different from the opening. The month of March finished up with loss of I5,ooo cattle from same month last year, which was a light March at that, indicating the sluggisness of the beef trade at this time. The run here today is 10000 head, slightly more than than the first estimate, and the market is very satisfac- tory, about steady with the close of last week, and the action good. More good to prime steers are here today than usual, top at So. 50, and fair delegation of steers at S6.I5 to S6. 30, including some ex- tra heavy steers at S6.25. A large number of Nebraska steers are here today, most of them at S6 to $6. 30, with some light steers at S5.So to S6. The quarantine division had some cattle today, sales at S5.4o to S6.Io. Ward Bros, Cushing, Okla, had train here today at s5.S5. Same ship pers had train of same steers here last Monday at S5.8o and $500, showing how slight is the change in price since week ago. While there is no expectancy of much improvement in steer val ues at present, the market is act ing in an encouraging way today, not quite as easily congested as short time ago. Cows bring S4 to S. 50, bulls S4.25 to S5.25, heiiers SAYS to S6.25, calves at the low point of the winter, around s7 for best veals, heavy calves around s6. Feeder buyers complain that steers are carrying too much flesh, probably a result of admirable climatic conditions all winter, and prices on same are a little lower, S5.25 to $500. Light, thin steers always get good action at strong prices, S5 to SC.
 Hogs lost IS cents last week, and the marketis is headed in the same direction today, off 10 cents. Heavy hogs are now 25 to 35 cents under the top of the market, paid for light hogs, and medium weights have a range of 25 cents, accord to quality. Run today is TI,ooo head here, heavy hogs at So. 30 to S6.4o, medium weights S6.35 to S6.6o, lights S6.5 to S6.65. These prices are identical with the low point touched last week. Re ceipts are large at all points, run here last week 75,ooo head, same week year ago 42,ooo head, two years ago 67,ooo head. Consid- ering the heavy average weight, 225 lbs. in March this year, 2o8 lbs. last year, we are getting more than twice as much pork as a year ago. Packers are ready buyers, the kill here in March 3o7,357 hogs; March last year I7I,6I5 head.
 Good receipts of sheep and lambs last week sold readily at steady to a shade lower prices. Run today is I5,ooo head, market steady on aged stuff, 10 lower on lambs. Lambs always present a weaker front than sheep, account of the large proportion of that class on feed this year. Best lambs today $6.25, fair to good S6 to s6.2o, clipped s5.65, yearlings in fleece S5.75, wethers S5.25, ewes
