not more than six or eight matters

form, trust regulation, farmers. credits,
presidential primaries, Alaskan devel-
opment, and safety of life in the mines

within his purview, not at all of which,

Huerta dictatorship grows appreciabl
nearer every day. Once the incubus Ii
remover, the President feels persuaded
that Mexico will rebound from hel
PROSTATE condition, and thereupon eve
shall hope to see constitutional order
restored by the concert and energy OF
such of her leaders as prefer the lib
erty of their people to their own ambi-
tons" Running so high in the Presi-
dents convictions, the spirit of hope
fitness no doubt will act infectiously
and dispel any shadow of doubt that
may linger in mems minds.
Briefly resting his position on cur
rency legislation, which, like the basic
features of the bill, is too we'll under
stood to be reviewed here, President
Wilson takes up the trust policy, ou:-
lining in general terms the scope and
severity of the more explicit legisla-
ion with which the Sherman law should
be supplemented to the end that priv
ate monopoly be destroyed. However,
the President prudently couples his
somewhat unsettling recommendations
with the assurance that the subject is
deserving of careful and discriminas-
ing discussion, and will be reserved for
definite presentation by means of a
special message at a later day in the
session. The Presidents expressed de-
sire for further examination fund.-
mentally of the trust question argues
that the undated eagerness of a con-
tingent of the trust busters to run
their quarry to earth probably will not
have been gratified when adjournment
day arrives.
The President enlivens his argument
for nationwide presidential primary
by injecting new proposition relative
to the personnel of national conven-
tons called to ratify the results of tn :
primary and to adopt party platforms:
He would choose as delegates the
nominees for Congress, the nominees
for vacant seats in the senate the SEN
ators whose terms have not expired,
the national committees, and the can
didates themselves, gin order that plat
forms may be framed by those respon-
sible to the people for carrying them
into effect Inasmuch as the Presi-
dents suggestion would have the effect
of sending only partial delegations to
one convention or the other, or both
ICOnNSulOuSJ lEOLl ulduy OIL Tie SLdLcS
it would seem that the proposition is
only tentative.
When elections go by default, as
happened in various states in 1912, and
as happens in more than a few cases
in congressional years, in part a,
least, not a single Republican has
qualified as a national convention del
egate.
Cooperation between government
and farmers in finding markets fol
foodstuffs, better credit accommoda.
tons for farmers, Philippine home
rule, government assistance for rail
road development in Alaska, and con

come in for favorable consideration
On the latter topic, the President
wise conclusion is that we must ust
our resources, not lock them up.

GEORGIA.

georgia, the youngest or the tnrteeI
American colonies, gave two states t;
the Union and still has more lant
than any other state east of the Mis-
sissippi river.
On this land the sun shines, as il
does not shine, and the rain falls as il
does not fall, in other countries.
The topography of Georgia ranges
from sea level to a mile above it.
This topography gives to Georgia
eight of the nine climate belts in the
United States.
All the woods, fruits, flowers, grass
es and crops of the temperate zone
and some of the tropics grow in Geor-
gia.
Georgia is the natural home of every
beast or fowl that is useful to man.
Georgia's water supply and water
power surpasses anything in this
country outside of the Piedmont re-
gion and Niaraga Falls.
Georgia's variety of minerals is the
greatest in the country and its state
collection is the best in America
The first steamship crossing the
Atlantic ocean was owned by Geor-
gians and sailed from Savannah to
Liverpool in 1919.
A Georgia invention, the cotton
gin, made possible the greatest crop
in the world, and the crop, exported,
established the balance of trade which
makes this country financially indie
penrent.
Georgia's cotton crop is the largest
this side of the Mississippi river and
second only to that of Texas, which
has only four times as much land
Georgia has more negroes to make
cotton than any other state or prov
ince in the world.
The proportion of farm ownership
among Georgia negroes is the lowest
in the United States.
The proportion OF ignorance, vag-
rancy and crime among Georgia ne
groes correspond to their homeless
ness.
The white population of Georgia is
the purest Anglo-Saxon stock this side
OF the Atlantic.
The progressive spirit has made
Georgia the Empire State of the
South and Atlanta it's leading city.
They have the best archaeological
school, the best Agricultural college
the best corn club organization and
the best corn show in the South.
These most progressive white pep
pie and their lea1t progressive black
neighbors, together have charge of the
richest combination of natural re-
sources on the American continent.
If Georgia negroes led the negro
race, as the Georgit white people leat
the white population, the march of civ
ilization in Georgia would be vastly
accelerated.
The presence in our state of tht
largest body of negroes and the leas
progressive is at once the white man.

If the negroes are allowed to re
main in this condition, they will con

Spot Houses Favor
Clarke'S Amendment

NEW YORK, July 1l-Advices from
kilograms and letters which are cur
rent, state that many, if not a ma
jority, Of the large spot cotton firms
and many mills favor the passage Of
the Clarke amendment, believing it will
enable them to buy their spot cotton
from the planter cheaper than at
present
1t said that the open competition and
broadcast distribution Of market in
formation and quotations kept the pro-
Queer of cotton well posted under rul-
ing prices from hour to hour and day
TO day. This would not be the case
with the adoption of the Clarke amend
ment. as II would leave the cotton mar
kets IN the hands Of simply the few
spot dealers.
With the adoption Of the Clarke
amendment there would be a fixed tax
0t 80 cents bale for hedging contracts
When the local cotton buyer in interior
towns buys his cotton from the farmer
his bid price would be low enough to
enable him to hedge his contract and
pay the 80 cents a bale tax and the
farmer, therefore, would indirectly have
to pay this tax. II the head and Off
Gals Of the Farmers Union could real
lie what this amendment means. and
would look at II from purely a business
standpoint they would OPPOSE the
Clarke amendment and try TO introduce
some bill that would perpetuate the ex-
change and encourage competition that
makes broad market for cotton This
tax reduces the value Of cotton as a
collateral with the bank as protection
in all lines Of business has become a
necessity.
