One-Sentence Philosophy

The people who are nowhere are

Some who talk with JUNCTION on

Life is likely to lose all humor when
you get into the habit Of ridicule and
cheap wit.
He who believes only in the things
he can see never sees anything worth
believing in.
Folks who sit down in a soft place
hope that it is an elevator and find it
is glue pot.
Some people get so little out OF re-

THE CONVERSATION.

The psTlOr light was low and dim.
Yet not too dim and not too low;
He talked to her, she talked to him
Yet what they said they did not know
They talked about the latest play,
They chatted of the newest book,
But somehow each one seemed to say
A different thing with smile and look.
They talked about the flood in France
And of the row at England polls,
OF an amusing circumstance,
OF chocolate, Of breakfast rolls
OF making change on trolley cars,
OF pictures in a magazine,
OF what they put in good cigars.
OF how to crank a big machine
They laughed at some unconscious JOKE
They Judged her latest photograph.
They talked about the city's smoke
And OF her uncle's epitaph.
They graTely spoke OF politics.
OF how fair WOman's lack OF guile
Would do away with graft and tricks
But more they said with look and smile.
At last he said that he must 60;

The DarlOr lamp burns dim and low,

The evening had been nicely spent
Though neither knew what other said,
Each knew just what the other meant.

CASE IS GIVEN
 TO THE JURY

Anniston. October 31.-(Special.)- The case of the state vs Jim Hyatt, who is charged with killing Godfrey Thomas Woods at White Plains June 30, will be given to the jury today.
 The defense put Jim Hyatt on the stand this morning, and his story was that it was an accident. He testified that MT. Woods was in drunken con dition when he entered the latter S room the day of the killing; that he had been crow shooting and stopped by MT. Woods house to see him. MT. Woods asked to see the gun, pointed it at Hyatt and threatened to kill him. Hyatt said that he grabbed the gun with his left hand, and the stock of the gun with the other hand, and in the scuffle the gun went off, killing Mr. Woods, but that he could not say whose hand it was in when the gun went off; that he had always considered the deceased one of his best friends
 A great deal of interest is being taken in this case, and the majority of people are in sympathy with the de- fendant,

following committee on resolutions was appointed: w B. Thompson of New Or leans, representing Governor Sanders or Louisiana; Clarence Ousley of Fort Worth, Tex, representing Governor Col quit, and Governor Mann of Virginia.
 At the banquet rendered here last night to the delegates to the cotton conference. Frank B. Hayne, the well known ''cot- ton bull' speculator and member of the so called "bull poor' of 1909, now under indictment in the federal courts of New York for alleged violation of the anti trust laws stirred the southern represen- tatives when he declared that he would gladly go to Jail if he had in any way aided the enhancement of the value of the great staple crop of the south.
 MT. Hayne spoke with marked emotion and the applause which greeted his re- marks spoke plainly the feeling of kind regard which those present held for him.
 "Along with William P. Brown of New Orleans, Eugene Scales of Texas and James A. Patten of Chicago" said Mir. Hayne, "I was indicted by a federal grand jury in New York on the grave charge of having unduly added s200, ,O00 600 to the value of cotton in the south. It IS some compensation to note that before an audience of this kind the crime with which I am charged does not bring upon me any disgrace
 q shall be proud to go to jail if I have in any way aided in the enhancement of the value of the south's product But, if what we did in New York is decided to be violation of the law, then say God help the southern farmer, It would mean that the man who sells and sells what he has not got is to be praised and that the man who buys to help the people among whom he has lived is to be con demned. government in these United States has come to a pretty pass
 Before this audience I feel that I will not be credited with purely selfish mo- tives in any of the campaigns with which have been associated in the SO called pulling of the market"
 Mir Hayne made it plain that he be- lieved In higher prices for cotton today

 "The Commercial club earnestly re- quests you to attend their next regular meeting to be held at p. m, Monday, November 6, in the rooms of the club, for the purpose of discussing this question and taking such action there on as may be deemed advisable. Don't forget the date.

no less than he had last year, or the year previous.
 ''The south this year." said MT. Hayne, probably will receive $s5O,OOO.000 less for it's crop of cotton than she received for
 the crop of the year previous Those
 figures are astounding, yet the press com | ment of the country regarding them is
 meagre. The press and the public stand aghast at the announcement of a reduc- | tion of $20 a share in Steel stock repre- | senting a paper loss of $l00000,000, yet that | loss may be only temporary, and with a subsequent rise in the price of Steel will be fully recovered. On the other hand every bale of cotton which has been marketed to date this year at the ridicu- lously low prices obtaining represents a | loss to the farmer and to the south which
 cannot be retrieved This year the south
 has lost the gigantic sum of S3,500000 in | that manner and the world apparently l thinks nothing of the loss The news
 papers of the country, even the southern
 papers, print columns about the decline | in steel stocks, but we hear very lit | tie of these far greater and permanent
 losses sustained by the farmers of the south
 | "I honestly believe that were this great
 cotton crop grown north instead of south | of Mason and Dixon's line, 20 cents a
 pound would be considered cheap for it.
 We can bring that about, and the whole sou.h must be mdde to feel that it should
 work for the enhancement of the value
 of this crop. Not alone the south, but
 the entire country feels the effect of the | depression resulting from the marketing
 of this crop for approximately S6500O0,0 ,000
