Meridian.-Considerab concern Is be-
ing expressed over the decrease in cot

year, and predictions are that Lauder
dale county will not make more than
IS to 90 per cent a. much cotton as
last season. Lauderdaie made $4,000
bales last year, according to the govern
ment census figures, but Judging from
indications and the movement to date,
the crop will not amount TO more than
$4,000 to $4,000 bales for this season.
This deterioration is attributed to the
rapid and ever increasing devastation of
the boil veevil, which made its appear
anee only last year. This is the second

THE GOVERNORS SLIp-Up

FORMER Governor Ansel of South Caro-
lima seldom makes mistake. However,
the warden of Columbia Penitentiary tells of
an amusing one that the chief executive made
in that institution short time before Christ
mas. The Governor had been asked to
deliver an address to the convicts, who were
assembled in the hall when he appeared.
kindly talk to the States wards started in
this manner:
"My friends, l am glad to be with you
today, and am glad to see you here"
The rules of the penitentiary forbid any
semblance of applause on occasions like this;
so the feelings of his audience, the warden
saws, the speaker will never know.

NEW YORK, Aug. 17.-Frank
u Chance is brave and bold. The
other day the Peerless Lead
er told us that his Chicago Cubs
would beat out the Giants for the
National league pennant, beyond
the shadow of a doubt, and also
that he was equally certain the
Washington Senators would over
haul the Boston Red Sox for the
American league banner, likewise
that the Cubs would lick the Sena-
tors. We are glad he made the re-
mark. not that we share his GER
talnty in the matter, but because
it gave us an idea.
A second worlds series between
the runners-up in the two leagues
that is the idea.
In event that the present order
in the two leagues remains un-
changed at the end of the season
and the Giants and Red Sox come
to grips for the banner of suprem-
aCy, wouldn't it make good little
sideshow if the Chance selections
Senators and Cubs-COuld meet
in a series of like nature? And
wouldn't it be a good stunt to es-
tablish the runner-up series for
every year, under conduct of the
National Commission? And there
are those who would carry the idea
even farther and have the clubs all
along the line meet, clear down to
the tail-enders, who would be
scrappng for the cellar champion
ship of the world Even a cellar
championship might draw big
crowds, because of the fact that the
contenders never before would
have met.
Tigers and Cubs Last Year.
But the main slice of this inspi-
ration is that concerning the run
ners-up series. In the past some
good battles would have been pro-
vided by such an event. Last year
it would have brought together the
Detroit Tigers and the Cubs. and
the year before, when the Cubs
won the National title, it would
have been the Giants versus the
Tigers. In 1909 1t would have been
Cubs again for the National and
the Athletics from the American,
Pittsburg and the Tigers winning
the flags that year. Any one of
these scraps would have been in

Washington club. Clark Griffith.
manager of the Senators, is one of
Bill Smiths closest friends in base
ball.
Even before Smith was secured
as manager, Clark Griffith decided
he wanted to train next spring in
Atlanta. The deal hasn't been
closed yet, but it probably will be.
If 1t is, Griffith will surely leave
one man here for ground rent"
and probably more.
Of course, the new waiver rules
make it peculiarly difficult to waive
man out Of the big leagues and to
get them to the Southern, but
Washington will doubtless have
some men who will be good enough
for Atlanta and yet poor enough to
be waived this far.
Smith will certainly draft a lot

of good information about desir-
able talent and he can always be
counted on to pick up a few good
performers from the bush.
ONE thing about Smith--he will
never again fall into the error

w vHEN Bill Smith takes over
wv the Atlanta ball club he'll
be a happy man. But he'll
have his work cut out for him.
Never in his history, unless posi-
bly, when he grabbed the reins and
the discords and the discourage
ments at Buffalo, has he faced a
problem like the one he must solve
If he is to put the fair city of At
lanta, Georgia, back on the base
ball map in letters large enough to
he read by the naked eye.
After a team has been tall
ender for two years it Is in bad.
And that goes for Atlanta. The
lineup is just peppered with cork
ing good players, but they are all
to pieces and look like Class d per
formers.
II OW many men on the present
II squad will Bill Smith be able
to count on for next season? It
begins to look as though it would
be very few OF all the new mon
recently tried out 1t appears that
only Dug" HARRISON and Catcher
Reynolds are going to be worth
hang.
And HARRISON is so blamed good
that some big league team will
probably grab him by draft-bad
cess to EN-.
Whether HARRISON goes or stays,
there will be as many gaps on the
team as there are in boarding
house comb.
7 ET'S figure the team from Bill
i Smiths viewpoint, for we all
know Bill, know the kind of ball
players he likes and the kind he
will not have.
It's an even money bet that
Smith will pick up about one more
catcher for try-o Bill is a
gIutton for good catchers. Good
backstopping staffs helped to win
him two pennants in Atlanta and
he doesn't object to them at all.
It's a cinch bet right now, that II
Bill Smith could get Sid Smith for
$1,000 he would snap him up in a
minute, And it would be a good
investment at that. But Sid will
hardly be on the market next year
Bin will be well suited with Pat
Graham and Reynolds But 1t is a
fine bet that he will get another
man
