A fatal accident which recently oc-
CURED in an Orleans county saw mill
was such as may happen at any time
in almost any saw mill without the
shadow of excuse.
There can be no excuse for allowing
heavy belts to run with no guard to
prevent them from flying wild when
they break. No mill-owner should take
such a chance with the lives of those in
his employ, or with his own. How many
heavy mill belts are running without
proper protection in Lamoille county -

Tells How He Did It.

A Western politician. well known
on account of his badness and
ready wit, surprised his friends by
appearing with heavy growth of
hair; many of his old friends did
not know him and others thought
he had a wig. On being asked how
he did ii, he made the following
statement: Il attribute the re-

COTTON

NEW YORK, Oct. THE bears ruled
in the cotton market at the opening to-
day, first prices being IL TO 20 points
lower than the closing quotations OF
Monday. After the cali there was good
buying on the decline, by brokers VINO
believe that the decline has gone lar

some to points from the initial range
New orleans was a light buyer. But
the buying was met with heavy oHer-
ings from local houses.
Some one pulled the peg out from

bled during the early forenoon: II was
said that the heavy liquidation was
based on cables from Liverpool, stat
ing that the South was offering freely
at a lower basis. This. coupled with
improved weather conditions encour-
aged heavy selling by ring professionals,
brokers close to spot interests and LlV-

buying side for months only supported
the market half-hearted.

uary the most popular position on the
list receded 29 points to 1912. while
March dropped 19 points to 1926. The
entire list showed a net decline of %

Local traders figured that there is
still a quantity of cotton to be liqui-
dated. Wall street and the uptown
crowd were aggressive sellers and at
Bull leaders sidestepped, giving the

State Senator and former Reps
sentative W. L. Converse, of IowndeS
one of the best known men in Geor-
gia, is being urged by numerous
friends in South Georgia to enter the
Congressional race next year against
Representative Randall Walker. of the
Eleventh.
Senator Converse. who besides
being statesman. is one of the very
busiest men in the commonwealth.
has taken the matter under serious
Amusement, and it is altogether likely
that he will enter the contest.
At least, that is the persistent polit-
ical gossip one hears about the State
Capitol nowadays from the lips of
observers who keep pretty close tab
on things in the Southwestern Sec
ton.
If Senator Converse does get into
the Congressional race. it goes with
out saying that he will become imme-
diately most formidable candidate
and one to be reckoned with. His
services in the Legislature have made
him fine reputation, and it probably
is true that among the entire mem
bership Of both the House and the
Senate his race will be watched with
sympathy and good wishes He prob
ably did more in Atlanta and at home
for the schools in his Congressional
district than any other one man hail
ing from that section. He is very
modest about that work, however and
rarely mentions it himself.
Senator Converse is q we'll balanced
man. He is an extremist in nothing.
He is tolerant and mindful Of the
opinions of others. The difficulty in
the way of getting him to run for
Congress, perhaps. would be in con-
vincing him that he could spare the
time from his business.
There seem TO be shape ups sChed-
uled for several Congressional dis
tricts in Georgia next time, and If it
comes to a battle in the Eleventh be-
tween Converse and Walker, it is
going to be mighty interesting.
The race there last time, when Con-
gresham Walker won out. was very
close indeed, and Mr. Converse was
not in that race, either!

Because of some rules of promotion
in the consular service of which he
was not aware when he made appli-
cation for the position at Shanghai,
it appears that Colonel J. LINDSAY
Johnson. of Rome. likely will not be
named to that post. A number Of
his friends therefore, now are urging
him upon President Wilson as a fit
and proper man to be United States
Minister to Uruguay.
This is one of the most-important
diplomatic assignments in South
America, and Colonel Johnson would
I'LL it most acceptably. The Rome
editors tastes run to things agricul-
tural in large measure. and the agri-
cultural interests of South America
are vast. If Colonel Johnson is sent
to Uruguay, and it is thought he may
be. he will be more or less in his
element and fully capacitated to rem
der great and material service to his
country.
Secretary Bryan is said to be heart
lily in favor of Colonel Johnson for
the South American post.
